Does anyone else feel like act 7 left it entirely unclear if the BBEG is dead or not?
act 7 isn't an act
Threads gonna get deleted, the mod's apparently don't want to let people talk about one of the biggest comics of modern times on the day it ends.
>>81764643
It was still a video, and I really don't think we resolved what happens with Caliborn. Obviously the green sun is being destroyed to depower him but wouldn't there still be a fight? I feel like we should have had at least a few seconds to show he is dead.
I swear there's going to be an intermission. There's no way he left it that badly ended.fuck
>>81764663
You mean the biggest hack of modern times?
IM SO MADNDEN I COUDL JUST

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHH
>>81764960
The next panel after the video is literally just "The end" I think he considers it done. I feel like an entitled shitlord for saying this but I really feel like he owes us a little more here.
It honestly feels like they just straight up forgot to animate like five more minutes of footage.
a new generation of cynics has been born
>>81764583
i think vriska used the juju (which was a spare universe??) to trap him in the red universe which im pretty sure was the scratch kid's?
english was the only character I honestly liked
it's ambiguous enough for me to pretend he's still alive.
>>81764663
Most of the people talking about it are either ridiculing it for how fucking cookie-cutter and over-the-top vague to the point of overdoing itself on its 2deep4u bullshit that its done up to this point to make a crazy ending that doesn't offend anyone and anything, or people who are overreacting and screaming for no reason because they're literally from Tumblr.
I'm glad this is all over. I finally won't have to see anything related to the growth of this tumor ever again.
HUUUUUUUSSSSSSIIIIIIEEEEEEEEEEE
>>81765300
Even a good spattering of people on tumblr are dissatisfied with this shit.
I'm still not sure if I should finish Homestuck or not. Though from where I left off in early act six I think it's safe to say it wasn't as good as Problem Sleuth.
>>81765341
Everyone on my timelines/feeds is completely confused, dissatisfied, or both.
>>81764663
Well, we all know that the mod on /co/ is an even bigger hack.
>>81764583
Why did aradia die, where was sollux
>>81764583
It's not clear about a single fucking thing. What did Vriska do after the supposed fight? How the fuck did kids get stuck in a mojo to begin with if all they did was enter their universe?
Maybe a suggestion.
I wanna fug that one eye.
http://jackiestory.weebly.com/index.html
I keep on starting to write out posts, but I just really don't have much to say.
Probably makes me come off as sounding like a devastated 14 year old girl, but really, I'm just kind of glad it's over. The ending was horrendously unsatisfying, but I guess if nothing else, it was kind of pretty to look at.
anyone else confused as fuck of what was happening?
>>81765516
On one thing, AraSol was *not* confirmed while JohnRoxy was, well, neither, but it was just a *bit* more. Karezi was not at all in favor of some sort of weird DaveJadeKat OT3 which is pretty nice actually.
That's honestly the only thing I liked. Plus Caliborn being so fucking beautiful. He's so dreamy, ah~
Hussie has been tired of Homestuck for years.
>All that build up.
>All that hidden lore.
>All of those callbacks.
>Seven years worth of it all.
>Just for some shitty, ambiguous animated ending that answers nothing.
Oh Lord that was in unsatisfying, really fucking hopeong for a epilogue here but I'm not holding my breath. Getting real fucking tired of this ambiguous story telling fad, just tell a god damn story and be done with it.
What happened to the shitty faygo clown? Why did they enter the universe? They seemed to already be in the universe but hadn't entered it yet? This shit is so confusing.
Are the human and troll races going to be able to continue? The earth was full of those pawn people and some of the main characters but no other humans.
>it's a Lost ending episode
>making a vague/cliffhanger ending
Literally the laziest and shittiest cliche in the world
Fuck
>Problem Sleuth's boss fight never ended, kept going and going more forms and forms and forms
>Homestuck's boss fight was like four minibosses and then no actual conclusion past 'yay can town'
He'll have no choice but to make the next ending he does a nice, satisfying, concluding ending that doesn't take forever to conclude/create. Surely
>>81765684
>I'm really fucking hoping for an epilogue.
Anon, I don't know how to tell you this, but that WAS an epilogue.
>>81765538
For fucks sake, where is Terezi? Gamzee will die in the fridge?
>>81765728
Lost was Hussie's main influence, it's not surprising.
Probably wanted to make something that would have an "impact", that would "keep people talking for years".
And here I thought we'd ACTUALLY get a somewhat decent climax and tying of loose ends.
>>81765640
nothing happened
that's the joke
the entire comic essentially didn't /actually/ happen
>>81765538
Did that even end up actually happening? Did the retcons John did stop that fight from happening, stopping the various things that made Caliborn into LE? Which is how he got defeated maybe?
>>81765341
Yeah, and why the fuck not? Hussie somehow forgot to actually make cohesive endings that showcased closure on every little detail that was fun for both him to write and for us to experience. Instead of him actually doing something that rang on a good note and talked about every single character, we get some bullshit anime animation that barely even focuses on most of the characters for a good portion of the beginning half of the movie just for showcasing some cool animation techniques on a fucking frog.
Instead of him doing something absolutely revolutionary and bringing it all in with a single wham line and a nice final picture, we're given a quick mop-up and a fucking closure that's left to interpretation as so not to offend people and their continuous stream of bullshit, because he panders to fucking kids who use ironic punctuation about as bad as people on here use ironic twitter speak, but for fuck's sake, at least we have the common sense to not wear our heart on our sleeves and punch it to a bloody pulp each and every time we're dissatisfied with something, or just because someone misgendered you when you were a ham sandwich with mustard-kin.
I would of figured that, for at least a second, Hussie would of pulled off something heartwarming aside from a "THANKS FOR PLAYING" that rang hollow once you realized just how much bullshit got churned out from a single animation for no purpose other than to end what needed to be ended years ago. Meanwhile, Problem Sleuth still gives me fucking goosebumps with its final picture, because I can't help but remember all the fun I had reading it, and how much fun it was for Hussie to write it.
And there are people out there right now that would actually prefer this and will look fondly on this anime-psuedo-cringey as fuck ending that Homestuck went out on as to what Problem Sleuth did correctly.
The magic in our fucking generation is dead.
WHO /RIGHT/ HERE?
>Caliborn doesn't even do anything
>Eridan doesn't come back to life
REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
fucking WEEEAAAK
Did anyone else think when they opened the door they would come out of the juju and have to fight Lord English?
>tfw the best way to live up to the expectations is to to only say "yes, everyone lived happily ever after" give the most important details and then let everyone fill in the blanks
Don't care. Is there another Music Album coming out, or can I consider this shelved indefinitely?
HUSSIE GIVE US ANSWERS PLEASE IM DYING TO KNOW
This can't be the fucking ending.
Please tell me we're getting a act eight tomorrow
I just don't understand why Caliborn even exist. He didn't have done anything relevant besides doing things that already have been done. I mean, I love Caliborn, but why should we spend time with him as a character if his character was developed from the beginning? I was hoping that he wouldnt turn in Lord English, and I really thought that he wouldnt be idiot to become LE knowing what he knows.
>>81765783
Keep people talking for years about it being a legendary piece of shit.
http://bilious-slick.tumblr.com/post/142723039693/summary-of-the-final-upd8
guys it's obvious now that the kids in the masterpiece really were alt kids. and these kids reap the rewards
Shit Xenoblade X's story had a better resolution and it basically boiled down to "lol planet".
's fine. Bad year for endings. We got this. We got 7 more months to forget this.
Why didn't mods sticky the previous thread?
>>81765944
100% what I thought was going to happen.
Homestuck became about the inter-character drama, more and more as it went on. And then the ending solved the dramas and left anything else out to dry because who cares
>I actually storyboarded it about four years ago.
Oh it shows, Andrew. The thing that gets me is people are eager to defend this because "the animation was good," and "Homestuck is finally an anime XD." The animation wasn't even that great by anime standards, although it's admittedly pretty great by Homestuck's standards.
>>81765944
i was expecting the same damn thing
We're free, everyone! This stupid piece of shit doesn't control me anymore! I don't have to wonder about what classpect I am or any of that bullshit, because it didn't fucking matter anyways!
We're done. It's over. Go home. It should be even easier to let go now, I'm sure.
>>81765944
I thought that they would fight Caliborn and everything would be done as expected. (Jake use hope strike, Dirk catches Caliborn soul in Lil'Cal and all the Oroboros shit.
But there's the thing that John did that changed every and all timelines. If you think this way, Caliborn couldn't become LE.
this was the most frustrating ending I hoped to see....collide was more hyped than this...I was hoping some panels before an epic video but....it's too vague....guess I gotta have to wait for PROBLEM SLEUTH 2 THEN :'D
FUCKING EVANGLEION HAD MORE CLOSURE!!!!
HOLY SHIT GUYS, THE ENDING WAS PREDICTED BY SWEET BRO AND HELLA JEFF

>>81766145
We're free.
WE'RE FINALLY FUCKING FREE!
What do we even do with our lives now that it's over?
It has been 7 years.
Hussie decided to celebrate with getting his fans a gift.

There is no portion of the fanbase that is disappointed. EVERYONE is disappointed, maybe except by you, and you know that you are actually disappointed too.
>>81766240
>>When the fuck did kids get trapped in the Juju?
those were alt kids. when they are released the house changes from caliborn's red to a white house signifying that they are free from his inevitability.

To not piss more people off you could have
Hold on what's the word
Oh yeah a "conclusion"
I hear some stories now-a-days have those. I think it's when the story reaches like a natural ending where things are explained?
This ending is the laziest and stupidest way to end something like this. Hell someone could just make it up in 10 seconds.
It's just literally some things happen. Other things are not explained and then it says The End....?
>>81766186
yeah none of these things are super important points to be in the final 9 minutes? if anything it allows more wiggle room for the fans to define that stuff. its a finale, not an aftermath
>there will never be another update of sbahj
so do the dream-bubbles just exist forever?
>>81766306
What I'm thinking is that the black hole that happened after the fight was just a black hole. So all the bits and pieces that make LE got sucked up and disappeared, making him never exist.
What that means for the fight he was fighting and the house juju and etc is fucking beyond me though
Personal theory about the 'end'
What we just saw was Calliope's orchestrated ending, how she wanted it, similar to how Caliborn took over the story earlier in Act 6.
Tomorrow will be Caliborn's turn to take over the story again, final fights will happen, a 'satisfying' ending will be reached and we can all leave this stinking pile of horse shit behind.
Hussie hired the person who made this
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QKfP9N28buk
motherfucker
>>81766145
did anybody else do that happy cry thing
So what happened to that hope bullshit? How did gaymzee do all his crazy hijinks? What or who is lord english made from? I thought at least we would get that.
Can someone explain what the juju did? What did it do when he used it and what did it do when vriska used it
>>81766481
Explains why it's only half finished.
>>81764663
i think they're just as fucking pissed as we are that it's a non-ending
>literally ending your story vaguely in an artsy fartsy shit way to let people have their own interpretation ;o)
I threw up so much I have to go to the hospital now. Pray for me
post yfw you realize vriska is fucking dead
HOW DID CALIBORN GET THE RING????
>>81766407
would anything visually depicted or explained through words actually meet your expectations? can you honestly tell me that anything would live up to anyones expectations m8?
Lord english is dead, Cantown.
>>81766411
>none of these things are super important points
>Lord English's defeat
>The fates of the living characters in the dream bubbles
You don't think the fate of the villain or like... the majority of the cast of homestuck is important?
>>81766108
It's true.
>>81766527
you.
i like you.
>>81766407
I mean is it really that hard?
Vriska uses the ultimate weapon which houses the alt kids and wreck Lord English's shit. Green Sun dies and so does the dream bubbles. All the relationships are shown paired together in can town. Caliborn becomes Lord English and then the events of the claymation take place.
Is it lazy? Probably. But it's not unexplained
post >yfw when people start to defend this ending in the weeks to come, or start talking about how it was "actually good" just to get guaranteed replies.
It was all a prank. A very good prank, 7 years in the making.
When it comes to a prank-off, I am the best there is.
>>81766558
either it's the lighting. or using the ULTIMATE WEAPON killed vriska again

>New world is just full of chess people
>No sign the Alien Egg was a success or used
Forgot about that, cool beans.
>>81766598
Oh yeah and Aradia got to see what happens when everything blows up. Vriska and her end up unexisting because the dream bubbles stop existing because black hole ate it all up.
>>81765901
you just said everything I wanted
than you very much
Friendly reminder that Hussie intentionally made an underwhelming ending to get out of the overwhelming shadow that Homestuck would have cast on his next work, something that would have been impossible if it had a satisfying ending
>Edit: one more thing. If you're curious about whether there will be anything resembling an epilogue to this ending, yes, I've been thinking about that for some time. It'll take a while to produce though, whatever specific form it ends up taking. Working on Collide took months, and came right down to the wire. I've got more time now though obviously. But that said, I'm not in a huge hurry at this point. Keep an eye out here for developments. There should be plenty of other news in coming months too.
FUCK

>>81766573
You don't introduce story elements to just leave them unfinished.
I still don't even understand the motives of the the condesce and the jack infused with lord english.
I also was under the impression that it was all planned by caliborn
maybe im just a retard
>>81766573
I had bottom of the barrel expectations
I honestly thought the story as a whole was on a downward slope for some time now. I just wanted a conclusion. I wanted to know what actually happened and to explain some of the stuff that was unexplained
I suppose the last panel could have been a loop gif of someone taking a shit and you would have defended it because "lel ur expectations were 2 high bruh"
It's not a high expectation to ask for an ending that explains THE END OF THE STORY you faggot
Is this... what it feel like... to be "triggered"
HSG. HELP. HOW DO I LET GO AS FAST AS POSSIBLE. HOW DO I FORGET AS FAST AS POSSIBLE.
HOW DO I GET THE FUCK ON WITH MY LIFE AS FAST AS FUCKING POSSIBLE.
I have a L O T of wasted time to make up for.
Is this right?
>Troll army distracts Lord English
>Omega Calliope makes black hole, destroys Green Sun
>Lord English loses time/space powers, appears weak
>Universe still tearing apart
>Vriska opens chest, reveals door to new universe
Don't get to see what happens next. Does Vriska enter the new universe, and leave an invulnerable but incapacitated Lord English trapped forever in the universe he destroyed?

So the John, Dave, Jane, and Rose that got sucked into the juju were the pre retcon version from the old alpha timeline?

>[S] ACT 7
>The song is by Clark Powell, and extended by Toby Fox. It's available here on bandcamp. It was originally featured in Clark's album, Symphony Impossible to Play.
>Today marks exactly seven years from the day Homestuck began. And Act 7's single-page installment marks the end of the story. Seven acts in seven years, to finish a sprawling "creation myth about kids in houses," as I would describe it for those who asked what my next project was about before I started it. What is there to say about this ending? The short and funny answer is, Homestuck has finally completed its long journey over the rainbow, and become the anime it was always meant to be. The longer and less funny answer will need some reflection. Maybe some day I will say some things about it. For now, I will leave you to draw your own conclusions.
>The animation itself had a fairly complicated production history. I actually storyboarded it about four years ago. In fact, some of the shots I visualized before I even began Homestuck. I'd like to extend very special thanks to Angela Sham, who took the reins on the animation while it was in progress, and worked with me closely on it for about a year until it was done. She's a great animator, and I'm quite excited that she's continuing to work with us on the game.
>It probably goes without saying, but ending this story is a personally significant moment as well. I could say more about this too, but I'd rather not fill the news section with too many words today. For now, all that's left to do is express some appreciation.

no the kids enter a universe free from his corruption

Well, yes, it is just the lighting. You can see her eyes again just fine later.
>>81767269
>despite being established characters
literally only 1 beforus troll even had the semblance of being an actual character, and that was barely at all
I think he should have worked on it for at least another year to put together a real ending. He needed at least 100 more pages to wrap things up properly and satisfyingly. Instead we get this half-assed payout that leaves you with a bitter taste.
Upvote this post please
So... what?
What the fuck was in the box? Was HOMESTUCK in the box? The only thing that could beat LE was HOMESTUCK itself? Please someone tell me it isn't that.
>>81767274
DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT
NIGGER
>>81767200
Replace it with Hussie's face and You're Welcome
FUCKING HUSSIE WHY WOULD YOU POST THIS
THE RIDE NEVER ENDS
>>81767234
ill try but im not guaranteeing anything. at the very least i wont be a dick and leave so much shit open to interpretation bc even i know thats just being lazy
and im one of those that loves shit like that but this is just too much. there are way too many unanswered questions that an "epilogue" probably cant fix
This was the best of all possible endings.
Homestuck could never have lived up to t
he expectations of every fan. "WHAT ABOUT ERIDANxEQUIUS??" etc. Instead of continuing to build the precarious story-skyscraper up and up and up with the countless plot threads and unmanageable tedium, Hussie instead, placed one perfect capstone on the cathedral he spent seven years creating.
Homestuck was about the journey. Go back and watch the animations again – every development introduces twice as many story threads that each need winding up, like a hydra. In that sense, Homestuck is kind of like the real world: complicated.
Homestuck was never about the plot threads or the new universe or any of that inane story-detail shit. If you want mythic fantasy, go play D&D. No – we, the fans, the ones who forced Hussie to make countless in-jokes and throwaway gag panels along the way, who got to live the comic – we are what Homestuck was about.
Smell the roses a little bit before you whine that your pet plot point wasn't addressed. Try and tell me that ending wasn't in the top 0.5% of the most beautiful animation you've ever seen. Hell, I'll even be generous and ask for 0.1%, instead. Andrew has literally written more than the entire Bible, at this point. He and his teams have composed days' worth of music, and animated near-enough to a feature film.
Sometimes, less is more.
PS: read his news post again. There will be an epilogue.
>>81767157
Problem sleuth
To be quite honest, I'm still laughing about all this. It's like Hussie decided to end it all with the biggest cosmic joke he could muster up, and it oddly fits in the most perverse manner possible.
I applaud you Monsieur Hussie, you motherfucking crazy bastard. See you in the epilogue, I guess.
what now
>>81767269
I think Hussie forgot about them
Which makes me wonder what the point of them was in a story sense
Filler?
>>81767237
NO FUCKING FOOLING
>>81767324
it was the kids? who could now magically beat LE for some reason
fuck this
I thought I'd be happy to see Davekat get not confirmed
But not like this
never like this
And what was the point of bringing Vriska back? She literally didn't do anything, and nothing she affected did anything.
The homestuck ending is one of the deepest tragedies of our time.
>>81767157
Try Problem Sleuth
Hussie's true magnum opus
>>81767287
I want to go read problem sleuth, to be honest.
>>81767340
That animation was shit
Wanna know why?
HUSSIE DIDNT DRAW IT
>>81766210
gamzee shows up and says caliborn, final battle with time shenanigans in the lilypad, caliborn knocks out the trolls, real battle begins, caliborn's masterpiece happens with cuts to the kids showing up from the juju and dave defeating lord english
then you get the frog shit, but at the end you see caliborn or some bullshit that makes you think you missed something
>>81767324
Caliborn's juju, which became one of the few weapons that could be used to defeat him, which contained another two more weapons that could be used to defeat him
But we still don't know anything other than that
>>81767276
>Terezi facing the wrong way.
Nice touch.
>I fell for the western media meme
Oh well, back to anime.
>mfw I didn't give Hussie any Kickstarter money after lots of serious consideration
>>81764960
>One more thing. If you're curious about whether there will be anything resembling an epilogue to this ending, yes, I've been thinking about that for some time. It'll take a while to produce though, whatever specific form it ends up taking. Working on Collide took months, and came right down to the wire. I've got more time now though obviously. But that said, I'm not in a huge hurry at this point. Keep an eye out here for developments. There should be plenty of other news in coming months too.
>>81767276
>terezi facing the wrong way
everytime
>>81767340
this is the first time I've seen this copypasta and I already hate it

>le high expectations face
Fuck off forever retard
>>81767325
We're gonna find him, trap him in a basement, and force him to resolve all loose threads, even if he trolls us it's better then not knowing.
>>81767314
So I guess there never was an entire fucking flash game dedicated to giving us a reason to care about them as characters.
Yeah that didnt happen, like twice or anything.
>>81767274
but ho
homestuck is free
>>81767336
FUCK, IT'S REAL
JUST LET ME GO, HUSSIE
I DON'T WANT TO BE ON THIS RIDE ANY MORE
>>81767337
SHOW ME WHAT YOU GOT.
>>81767340
>Smell the roses a little bit before you whine that your pet plot point wasn't addressed. Try and tell me that ending wasn't in the top 0.5% of the most beautiful animation you've ever seen.
you are fucking scum, you know that.
>>81767157
Problem Sleuth somehow resolves everything in a funny, logical and completely satisfying way.
>>81767287
>>81767287I just want this ride to end.
>>81765966
>one more thing. If you're curious about whether there will be anything resembling an epilogue to this ending, yes, I've been thinking about that for some time. It'll take a while to produce though, whatever specific form it ends up taking.
Nah of course it isn't the fucking ending. He's just gonna go on hiatus again.

>mfw I backedUndertale
WHAT A BUNCH OF HORSESHIT
>>81767378
I thought it was going to be the cue ball from the end of the clock pendulum he broke, and they were going to make him mortal again or something.
Instead we got... barely used character destroys the green sun. vriska summons the homestuck logo. kids walk into happy go lucky utopia and...?
>>81767378
Calliope black-holing the Green Sun depowered him.
>>81767336
BECAUSE THAT'S WHAT WE NEED FOR A PROPER CONCLUSION! A FUCKING ANOTHER HIATUS HOLY FUCKBALLS!
LIKE, SHIT IN MY MOUTH SIDEWAYS, IF YOU COULDN'T DO IT FOR 4/13, THAT'S FINE. JUST POST A SILLY ZILLYHOO THING AND WE WOULD'VE BEEN HAPPY AND BEEN PATIENT FOR THE REAL ENDING.
BUT THIS IS JUT SHIT. IT'S FUCKING UTTER GARBAGE AND SHIT.
>>81767340
AND YOU'RE A FUCKING CUNT AND I HOPE RATS EAT YOUR EYEBALLS.
it just feels numb now
>>81767287
>>81767340
The animation was really hit and miss, dude. There were some nice segments, and there was some trash. If you actually believe that Act 7 was the best animation you've ever seen, watch something that isn't Johnny Test or other Homestuck flashes.
>>81766966
It can't be kids from a different timeline: now that John has retcon powers, all other Johns in all other timelines are dead. There's only one John.
>>81767340
OH FUCK YOU FUCK YOU FUCK YOU
SOMEONE ELSE EXPLAINED IT BETTER IN THE PREVIOUS THREAD
"THE JOURNEY IS MORE IMPORTANT THAN THE DESTINATION" IS BULLSHIT PEOPLE SAY AFTER THEY FUCK UP THE DESTINATION
AND EVEN IF IT WAS TRUE
THEN THE LAST FOUR YEARS
THE LITERAL LAST FOUR FUCKING YEARS
WERE TERRIBLE AND DOWNRIGHT UNENJOYABLE
I ONLY KEPT GOING FOR THE ENDING
IF IN FUCKING EARLY 2012 I WOULD HAVE A TIME TRAVELER TELL ME THAT THE ENDING ISN'T WORTH IT, BUT TO ~ENJOY THE JOURNEY LOL~, I WOULD FUCKING QUIT THE COMIC RIGHT THERE AND THEN
HOMESTUCK RUINED MY FUCKING LIFE AND ALL I WANT IS A FUCKING SATISFYING ENDING
JESUS CHRIST IT DOESN'T HAVE TO BE PERFECT
CASCADE WASN'T EVEN CLOSE TO PERFECT BUT IT WAS ENOUGH
I literally want to kill myself for getting invested into a comic so much only to get cucked in the end.
>>81767435
No there wasn't
That flash was literally pure bullshit, a waste of space that literally lead to nothing
What exactly did we learn about the beforus trolls that had any impact on the ending of the story?even though you're going to incorrectly answer this rhetorical question, I'll save myself the trouble of responding to your next post.
The flash was a huge joke, filler to spit in the face of everyone expecting anything, he even made fun of basically all of his fans
>>81767354
He didnt do shit, I wonder if he even thought up the ending by himself, this writing style is not somethign I expected from hussie.
>>81767413
>yfw the odd gentlemen were on our side the entire time
I THOUGHT THE PAGE OF HOPE WAS SUPPOSED TO KILL HIM
OR SOMETHING
OR DAVE
FUCK THIS COMIC
>>81767383
you even got your wish, Dave/Jade is more canon than Davekat
