A brand new Legend of Vox Machina season 3 clip wasn’t the one Crucial Position tidbit to return out of Amazon Prime’s grownup animation panel at San Diego Comedian-Con — we additionally acquired the primary glimpse of the Mighty Nein collection.
It’s a brief animatic — a tough and unfinished clip — which exhibits tiefling cleric Jester (Laura Bailey) working away from a gaggle of guards, after which fairly actually into and fairly actually working into robust, silent half-orc Fjord (Travis Willingham). Cue the shoujo-anime-style roses that sparkle into Jester’s imaginative and prescient, earlier than the guards catch as much as them. (That is particularly humorous as a result of Bailey and Willingham are married IRL.)
The present is clearly nonetheless in early improvement, but it surely’s thrilling to get a behind-the-scenes glimpse of the animation in progress. It’s a step on the ladder of brining the precise play interactions to life in an animated present, and seeing the characters on this kind — virtually come absolutely to life in a cartoon — is tremendous cool. The Mighty Nein is the second Crucial Position marketing campaign, and follows a distinct group of misfit heroes than The Legend of Vox Machina. There is no such thing as a launch date for the Mighty Nein present but, however The Legend of Vox Machina returns in October.
