THE VENGEANCE SAGA [UNEDITED]

get in the water

Comments

Regardless of the did she/didn't she, none of her actions that was taken or spoken are ok and are classic manipulation tactics

Phoenix Mackenzie

I hate to say it, but for me, it helps that there's no animation of the finale song in this reaction. The chosen style of that animation made it hard for me to stay immersed, and Casper had NO problem following without it ❤️

Bean of Glory

Casper, if you haven't made this part a YouTube short yet, you should XD

Bean of Glory

Honestly i love your analysis, but sometimes i just want someone to fangirl/boy with and share my excitement. Great reaction!

logicaldreamer

This is actually already my favorite reaction to this saga

Montavious

I'm honestly not sure who was more surprised and upset about Poseidon showing up: Ody or Casper 🤣

KysmetScribbles

I've always preferred a slightly sympathetic calypso because she was also very much a victim and in this specific version it's not necessarily canon that she SAed him.

Catherine Jones

"is that your blood on the trident my dear?" idk why but thats exactly how i imagine penelope's dynamic with ody. (and also how i think abt ody in general ngl)

Zep

Athena may not be dead! (Hopefully) since Gods cant die apparently. And we saw from 600 strike how messed up A god can get and yet he's still alive. If she's actually dead then i might cry 😭

Filippos

I recommend watching scilla nimation's for the Dangerous song. The way they have Hermes is *Chef Kiss* Magnifique.

AgRoseCrystal

So one thing I found about Calypso is the fact she isn't trapped on the island, but she is banished from the Gods. And apparently she might be a nymph and not a goddess like she said in her song Love in Paradise.

AgRoseCrystal

Also wet Hades(look under Odys raft at the overhead shot)

Phoenix Mackenzie

Thankyou Rodger ❤️

Becken Fuggle

I was dying to see your reaction! Best five dollars ever spent. You brought up a lot of musical insights I didn't notice. Loved every time you were a prophet (as usual). Can't wait to see you and Mortius react to visuals! Ahhh such a good saga

Maddi Christensen

I think the smile in dangerous is probably a reference to charbydis since it's a whirlpool with a mouth

Abby Koch

LOVE the lil dance wiggle during Dangerous, was doing the same!! Awesome beat

Maura Gillies

It was harder to listen to without visuals than with them somehow

Phoenix Mackenzie

🤣

Phoenix Mackenzie

Poseidons screams are melodic and the DM so maybe?

Phoenix Mackenzie

The background motif during the stabbing... Is that from Underworld? Loosely reminds me of 'All I hear are screams' but that might just be me

Boaz Russell

so someone actually made an art with the last song of ares saying "let's see what my sister saw in you KING OF ITHICA" and gave him a boost and to me that is understandable how odysseus had the men backing vocals ( I DONT KNOW IF ITS TRUE OR NOT BUT I WANNA BELIEVE THAT )

Caarmilla

Casper’s crystal ball is still working. Thank you for sharing this with us. I also appreciate enjoying the music - the breakdown analysis can come later. I’m looking forward to the edited version with Roger.

Dorothy Rosenberg

This was more than worth the wait! I always love when people get to "Next to my wife" and all of us go 'That's our boy(monster), damn right you are!' Okay now to binge watch the rest of your patreon bye bye

Morgan Estep

I admit it hahahah

Casper Fox Høybye

I think the storm back in ocean saga was sent by Poseidon and so is the one stuffed in this wind bag.

SlytherGriff

And the award for the BIGGEST crash out goes to Odysseus King of Ithica, ass whooper of the god of the sea😂😂

Anthony

Got hit by Apollo's dodgeball so hard you got sent to Act2

MoonLilyStudios2

Okay. Casper, I won’t say anything but like, you gotta admit, that was an INSANE amount of mini prophet moments🫣

Itzayana

I feel like Casper had the best reaction to the ending of Get in the Water😂

Itzayana

The Google translate!😭🤭😂😂😂😂

Itzayana

The way he just casually said ‘Athena snuffed it’😭😭😭😭

Itzayana

Polites: “You can relax my friend” Casper: “Oh fuck you” Just that is worth more than 5 bucks, thank you Casper

Jason Ringhofer

It’s honestly crazy how Casper didn’t guess Charybdis, but went off the lyrics and guessed something with a giant mouth🤯

Itzayana

Thank you, Roger!🫶

Itzayana

Honestly, as much as the original myths and most interpretations don't do enough to absolve Calypso and her tragic love from being abusive, I still prefer the story being sympathetic for her. I've been reading a fanfic online that takes the imprisoning decision away from her and places it on Zeus. She's still pushy, but the fact is that they're both prisoners and don't actually control each other's freedom. And I think that goes a long way personally. The underlying story will always be a toxic romance, but the bittersweet tragedy of two people abandoned by the fates finding varying degrees of solace in each other is cathartic. She wants him so badly and he, at his weakest, can't entirely refuse the respite being offered, even as he longs for another. Anyways, like I said, most interpretations don't write the relationship carefully enough to forgive Calypso, and she becomes an unsympathetic abuser. Her primary literary purpose is to tie up Odysseus for the remainder of his ten year ordeal, rather than fulfill the tragic asperations of romantics, such as myself.

Alcaria Bordelon

Thank gods you were pretty hyped at the end because everyone else being traumatized was starting to make me feel bad 😂 Granted the visual is...a different beast 😉

Kristina [Lady Greensleeves33]

Awesome reaction vid! Really look forward to your music breakdowns it’s awesome. Can’t wait for the Open Arms reaction too the visuals are 🔥 😊

Gray

the wind bag wasnt cursed, and it bugs me that people dont understand that he meant that the storm was designed to stop him, not the bag

isaac

Absolutely loved seeing your reaction and can't wait until you see the visuals over on OAR! owo

fluffqueen91

i love hearing the different pronunciations i always pronounce it Ca Rib Diss

Saren Dracul

Haha. Chur- rib-diss was a fantastical pronunciation.

KarmaStratus18

Yesss im so glad you finally got to listen to it!!

IHNPAIMS (Aryn)

So fun fact, in the first song, the backing vocals are just Ody's and Calypso's voices because those are the only voices she knows

TheSuperSonicBlur -

me every time casper speculates on ody vs poseidon: 😅😬

TheBookWyrm

It’s important to note that it’s pretty unlikely that Calypso actually SAd Odysseus in Epic. It happens in the Odyssey but this isn’t the Odyssey, and this version of Calypso is clearly supposed to be sympathetic and not a predator. Obviously her actions were still wrong, but she isn’t as bad as she’s being portrayed. Also it is somewhat ambiguous whether she herself is intentionally keeping him there.

Null

Boping imediately to dangerous is a mood

Mariana Tayt-Sohn

Oh my, I didn’t know that Mico will be coming to Germany! Thanks for mentioning this. Berlin seems to be sold out already but let’s see. And gosh you are always so spot on! Unbelievable! XD

Nanao

im not joking im writing it RIGHT NOW lmao

#Not Sorry for Loving You, analysis incoming. In the Odyssey, Calypso imprisons Odysseus for seven years on her island and forces him to be her lover, even knowing he does not love her and is trying to get home. After several years Zeus orders her to release him and she complains that gods can take lovers but goddesses can’t. One of the quotes by the author Homer is “saw him (Odysseus) weeping live warm tears in the nymph Calypso’s house - she holds him there by force. He has no way to voyage home to his own native land” and “Calypso, the bewitching nymph, held him back deep in her arching caverns, craving him for a husband” and “but my heart breaks for Odysseus, that seasoned veteran cursed by fate for so long - far from his loved ones still, he suffers torments off on a wave washed island rising at the centre of the seas…Calypso holds Odysseus captive - luckless man, despite his tears - (she is) forever trying to spellbind his heart with suave seductive words and wipe all thought of Ithaca from his mind”. Note that ‘spellbind’ is there, it shows up in a Calypso song. The lyrics in Love in Paradise are also really clear that she’s forcing him into her bed “Just you and me, dear, my love for life, soon into bed we’ll climb and spend our time”, Odysseus says no “Hell no, I could kill you where you stand, I’m no pet I’m a married man”. Does Calypso care for his consent? “oh handsome you may try, but last I checked, goddesses can’t die…you’re adorable, bow down to the immortal Calypso…under my spell, we’re stuck in paradise”. Athena also reinforces this when she says later in the song “seven years she’s kept you trapped out of your control” and we see Odysseus on the brink of self harm. Wangui has such a beautiful voice, the music is beautiful. But what’s happening to Odysseus is monstrous, and so I don’t feel sorry at all for Calypso in Not Sorry for Loving You. It’s an abuser’s apology “And if I pushed you, or if I came on too strong, or if I ambushed you, for that I’ll say I was wrong, and if you hate me, then I am sorry my love’s too much for you” that’s not an apology. Calypso herself was victimised by the gods. It doesn’t give her the right to be a predator. Just my analysis though! No, girl. You’re Odysseus’s predator. You’re his ZEUS. Let him the heck go. I also reacted the same way when Odysseus said “I love you” “just not the way you want me too” it is very weird to put there, and doesn’t seem in character for him to say there.

Gray

Welcome Home! I'm beyond excited, let's rock! PS, hi beautiful Roger, thank you for your hard work! And of course you rolled Another Nat 20. POSeidon thinks he's going to inflict Suffering, thinks he's going to sleep fine after this. You just wanted to off one dude, that's not an accomplishment. You're cruel, stubborn and can't accept an L.

Kory Misun

I actually thought it was a reference to Charybdis, since it is portrayed as having many teeth

MariBrisse

caspers face during the end scene was about how everyone felt

Evie

Ody summoning backup singers in the start of 600 strike, just like gods do, or monsters do, is my favorite little tid bit

Eli

Next to my fucking wife, bitch!

Michelle Schaefer

I just realized Hermes says when danger greets you with a smile do what you must do is referring to Poesidon since he shows up smiling

dennis minnick

So where is the Poseidon diss track? Can we get Hades ripping into his brother? :')

Seiryunohoushi

YIPPEEEE

Moon Harris

So so so excited about your reaction! About Calypso, I'm pretty sure the "she's cursed to fall in love" thing is something from Percy Jackson and not actually from mithology. So I think her curse is just beign stuck in the island. She cannot leave and she trapped Odysseus, so for me the Pupperteer interpretation is spot on. She is manipulating him even while telling him she loves him.

MariBrisse

lmao "not sure how i feel about the winions sounding like jorge" when one of those is sung by jorge's sister

ShadowFox1412

Casper got SHOOKETH upon hearing Puddle Boy get wrekt. I love it.

Marianamystery

Also I will say he's not following the north star exactly it's more a marker so he knows which direction he's going because it's hard to tell exactly which direction you are going on the ocean but the north star is always north

Different Odysseus™

I'd live there to be a line in the Ithica saga where he's facing.. what's his face, and that's just like "I didn't fuck up posiden, only to be stopped by the likes of you" I'm not an lyricist. But something along those lines. I'm hoping

Latedozer

Ik in the original Odyssey it was Calypso who kept him on the Island she herself didn't ever want to leave she used her magic to keep him there against his will as for epics version I think she herself is bound to the Island but she still has control over who else can leave which is why Odysseus probably just didn't dip and start swimming out of pure desperation

Different Odysseus™

my comment about it vanished, but thank you SO much for noticing/mentioning the “puppeteer” bit at the end of the first song. i noticed it immediately but haven’t been able to explain what it meant, and your explanation makes perfect sense!

Bennett

Wangui does have a solo EP on Spotify it’s really pretty.

Jacob Minger

I may have missed a few but im pretty sure casper got like six nat 20's and one nat 1

Lauren Hedman

Yes exactly!!

Lauren Hedman

i think that about the wind bag at first too but i think they are refering to the storm, the storm was meant to stop him by poseidon design so i still hate Eury the same :3

Luna Ainara Korol

I absolutely love the fact that Posidens screams in six hundred strikes sounds so good because its music to Ody's ears

Olivia Taylor

Ive been so excited to see your response to Dangerous! Yes, we (or at least some of us) knew about the mega prophecy moment with your Full Speed Ahead reprise

Eleonora Witzky

Clicked as soon as I got the notif, so excited for you to see the visuals for get in the water and the end of 600 strike

crisistime

fixed it 8 mins in, so sry!

Casper Fox Høybye

To answer the question of how the island works, the details vary slightly from one version of the story to the other but basically she was the daughter of the titan Atlas who got his ass handed to him by Zeus. Atlas was punished to hold up the heavens, Calypso was sent to her island. In most versions she *technically* could leave, but she'd probably just get smacked around by Zeus and sent somewhere worse if she did.

anni davison

She wasn’t cursed to fall in love just throwing it out there, she was just lonely and entitled as all the gods were. She couldn’t leave the island but that was it. Which yes is sad but I struggle to sympathise with someone who goes from sad and lonely to snatching up a sex slave to try and scratch that itch.

anni davison

there IS a buzzing sound but it’s only audible when the music isn’t playing

Bennett

YES! FINALLY! LETS GOOOOOOO

lilghost

Witchylara
