Plot[]
Episode Twenty - The Piglin War[]
The episode begins with Blue preparing food while listening to the "chirp" music disc. Blue enjoys preparing food, such as melon, steak, chicken, cake and his favorite, nether warts. However, his supply nether wart runs out, and he remembers that he harvested them in the Nether fortress. Blue decides to go to the Nether to harvest more. However, his friends initially don't notice that he was going rebuild the nether portal, so Blue got the obsidian, and the flint and steel and rebuilds the portal. With the rebuilt portal, Blue returns to the Nether to get his nether warts.
Upon entering the Nether, he noticed that it looked different due to the Minecraft's Nether Update. Blue ate some of the crimson warts and crimson fungi because they looked like nether warts, but he did not like either of them and spat them out. A piglin teases Blue for a while until he discovers the piglin was there. Blue asks the baby piglin if he knew where the nether fortress was, and the baby piglin took him to the other piglins and hoglins as mounts to take them to the fortress. Unfortunately, the piglins attacked Blue because he did not wear any gold armor. Blue could not continue if the piglins attacked him, so the baby piglin gives Blue a gold helmet so that the other piglins would not attack him. Blue noticed that whenever he took his helmet off the piglins started attacking him. Now that Blue has befriended the piglins, they departed for the nether fortress. When Blue, the baby piglin and the piglins were leaving for the nether fortress, they passed the other Nether biomes, such as the warped forest, soul sand valley, and basalt deltas. Baby piglin shared with Blue some warped fungi, but he did not like them, so he hid them in his inventory. The baby piglin kept sharing more warped fungi with Blue, but he hid them again.
Meanwhile, The Second Coming, Yellow and Green were relaxing on a couch, until the Second Coming realized that the nether portal had been rebuilt. When he was about to destroy it, Yellow stopped him because he told the Second Coming that Blue entered the portal. Red spawned a pig to track the scent of Blue with a bottle of water, and they entered the portal with the pig. As the piglins left for the nether fortress, Blue stretched a bit until his gold helmet fell into the lava. Without his helmet the piglins begin to attack him. Blue has no other choice but to fight the piglins. When Blue is about to escape, an army of zombified piglins and zoglins started showing up for a war. Blue fights against piglins and zombifield piglins to defend himself. While Blue fought, some zombified piglins start attacking the baby piglin. Blue struggles to get to the baby piglin but gets pushed by a zoglin. But the baby piglin is saved by another piglin between the war.
When Blue is about to fall into the lava, a strider saves him but does not obey him. Blue found his gold helmet on top of another strider, Blue tries to control the strider but it does not move. Blue realizes that two striders are fighting over a warped fungus. Blue uses their warped fungus that the baby piglin gave to them. When Blue has already recovered his gold helmet, he sees a herd of striders, so he uses them to get to the edge of the lava, Meanwhile, the piglins are outnumbered so they start retreating. When Blue and the striders already reached the edge of the lava, the piglins recognize Blue again with his gold helmet. Blue tells the piglins to get on the striders to escape from the exerted zombifield piglins (a hoglin mounted on top of a strider as a rare thing). The piglins are saved thanks to Blue and his striders, then Blue got on the strider with the baby piglin. But when they are about to escape, a sinking zombifield piglin grabs the Baby Piglin so Blue jumps to save the baby piglin. The piglins rescue them, but when Blue's helmet falls into the lava, the piglins don't attack him due to seeing all the helpful and heroic things he has done for them.
They hug making the piglins celebrate. When the piglins had reached the shore, the baby piglin grabs a bunch of warped fungi from the chest to thank the striders for bringing them to shore and they say goodbye. When the Piglins arrive at the nether fortress, they say goodbye to Blue and he says goodbye to the Baby Piglin. When Blue is about to harvest the nether warts, it is revealed that there are no more, and he becomes sad. While in the crimson forest, the squad follows the pig to find Blue. They walk through the four biomes of the game to the nether fortress. While Blue is sad about the loss of their nether wart, The Second Coming's doppelgänger throws some nether Wart at him. The rest of the squad is stopped by the piglins. The piglins are about to attack the stick figures (for not wearing gold armor) until they see Red's pig, which the piglin befriends. The pig shows the piglins that he is friends with the stick figures, which makes the piglins befriend the stick figures too. The sticks tell the piglins that they were looking for Blue and the piglins were happy about the photo of their new friend. The piglins tell the stick figures that Blue is in the nether fortress. The squad entered the nether fortress but is not there. The pig sniffed Blue's picture of nether warts to keep looking for Blue. Blue follows the Second Coming's doppelgänger to another portal and the episode ends.
Episode Twenty-One - The Witch[]
Blue emerges from the Nether Portal, where he's relieved to be out of the Nether. He turns to The Second Coming, who had just appeared, gesturing to Blue to come closer. As Blue does so, he sees the true identity of the fake Second Coming off-camera and tries to run, but is hit with a potion, and disappears.
The real Second Coming, Green, Red and, Yellow come out of the portal shortly after, where they reunite with who they believe is Blue. Showing that he'd managed to obtain some nether wart, the Stick Figures celebrate and leave. Blue, however, seems hesitant to leave, and stops Red. One at a time, the remaining stick figures go back in the portal, as each stick that went before them takes longer and longer to return. The Second Coming is the last one to enter the portal again. Finding that the other stick figures are nowhere to be seen, The Second Coming confronts Blue, who suddenly begins attacking The Second Coming with a barrage of potions. Fending off the attacks, The Second Coming manages to pin the impersonator to the ground, who then transforms into a witch, whom is the culprit behind the disappearance of his friends. The witch then drinks a potion of invisibility, and disappears. (You can see the potion's spirals as she flees, but TSC is unaware.)
The Second Coming feels hopeless now that the Witch is gone, along with his friends. Red's pig makes haste attempting to comfort The Second Coming, and they set off in search of the other stick figures. As they are searching, with the pig's nose leading the way, they come across a group of llamas. The Heroic Pig sniffs out Yellow, and as The Second Coming walks by, one of them makes llama noises, attempting to communicate their identity as Yellow. The Second Coming nearly celebrates, but he had to test the llama first, telling it to build a redstone contraption to prove whether or not the llama is indeed Yellow (because Yellow is a genius at Redstone Minecraft.) The llama ends up building a contraption that makes an armor stand of Yellow after the llama spits on a target. Satisfied, The Second Coming gives him a yellow tapestry, and the three set off once more.
While crossing the swamp, a salmon jumps on The Second Coming, which he shakes off. They continued, and the salmon landed next to The Second Coming's feet. He was ready to kick it, but the Pig stops him in time. It then sniffs the salmon, and deduces that it is Red. The Second Coming is still skeptical, so he holds some wool with different colors (which are their names) and is surprised when the salmon jumps at the red wool. Now convinced, The Second Coming places Red in a water bucket, and the group continues.
The group soon comes across a zombie, which The Second Coming promptly tries to kill. However, before The Second Coming lands any hits on the zombie, it frantically motions for The Second Coming to stop, and gestures itself to be Green. The Second Coming holds up a block of green wool, and the zombie nods eagerly, confirming that it is Green. As the stick figures trek on, the new member suddenly begins to start attacking the group with a diamond sword in each hand. Confused, the Stick Gang fought back, managing to ensnare his leg. The string looped over a tree, allowing it to be hoisted into the air. As this happens, though, it manages to grab the pig, threatening a sword to its neck and holding it as a hostage. Everyone is hesitant to attack it when the pig's life is at risk. The zombie takes out a potion, revealing itself to be the Witch, tosses it onto the grass below it and creating a portal. The witch drops down through the portal, taking the pig with it.
The Second Coming and the group grew hopeless again, and sat down in defeat. Without Red's pig, they had no way to find Green, Blue, and the Witch. Suddenly, the sugarcane next to The Second Coming nudges him, claiming to be Green. Wary due to the previous attack, The Second Coming demands the sugarcane to prove itself, holding a Note Block above it. The sugar cane then proceeds to play part of Jazzy Note Blocks, proving that it was the true Green this time. Green knows where the Witch is headed, so The Second Coming shovels Green out and continue, this time to search for Witch and the Pig.
At the Witch's hut it is revealed that Blue has been transformed into a piston to harvest nether wart. However, Blue himself does not realize that he is a piston, he merely thinks he is sitting in a blank white place. Nether warts would regularly appear before him, but whenever he tries to grab them, they'd harvest, but he was unable to grab them. Meanwhile, The Second Coming, Red, Green, and Yellow, arrive at the Witch's hut and prepare to attack the witch.
They hear the pig squealing for help. This provokes Red, who attacks first but gets turned into cobblestone. Yellow throws TNT but the witch moves out of the way. Green is able to fight the witch on the roof, despite being sugarcane, Yellow throws more TNT at the Witch, and the Witch continues to fight them back. An explosion from the TNT destroys the blocks surrounding blue, allowing him to perceive his surroundings. He looks for any potions, but the Witch is about to enter the room. The pig warns Blue and Blue dives underwater, finding a brewing stand and a chest full of supplies. He starts making potions with the resources.
The Witch begins to win the fight by turning the rest of the group into useless and yet not immobile blocks. The witch is about to kill Green with a diamond axe, but Blue throws a potion that turns him back into a stick figure. He throws potions at everyone else and they return to normal. They prepare to fight again, but the Witch throws a splash potion of awakening at her brewing stands and supplies, giving them life which provides the Witch with constant potions. Everyone begins fighting, the Witch uses her potions to turn the Sticks into useless objects, and Blue turns the stick figures into powerful mobs.
The Witch grabbed Yellow and turned him into a witch, so no one can tell who's who. The Second Coming asked Red to get the potions, but the real Witch sneakily dropped a Void potion, which transported her to the hut. She ambushed Red and turned him into a redstone block and threw him out. They spilled a chest full of potions. Blue ambushed the Witch and both used potions to turn into various mobs to defeat each other, but in the end, Blue runs out of potions and the sticks are turned into colored dyes. The witch tries to burn them and nearly finishes them off, but suddenly, inside the hut, Red's pig has drunk a bunch of the potions that were spilled from the chest. The pig becomes super-powerful and launches itself at the witch, killing the Witch's moving chest supplies in the process. It begins doing crazy attacks on the Witch. The Witch tries to get away from the pig by using a black hole, but the pig also went through it. The witch also tried to turn the pig into a colored dye, but the pig turns the witch into dye using its own potion against it. He finishes the Witch by giving it a super-powerful punch, sending the Witch far, far away. The pig goes back into the hut, pushes another chest full of potions that turn the dyes back into stick figures. All five of them hug the pig.
Soon, everyone is about to leave the swamp, but they hear a sound. They see Purple, who is collecting blue orchids for no apparent reason. They have a reunion where Purple shows them another Nether Portal that he wants to show them. The Second Coming remembers what happened the last time they went into an adventure: entering through unknown Nether portals, which lead to getting separated; The Second Coming fighting The Killer Bunny; the Fighting Stick Figures escaping from the Drowned; and fighting the Spider King. Red begins to go first but The Second Coming stops him, and tells everyone they should go home. As the five go home, Purple comes out. Red looks back and says they should follow Purple and see what he wants to show them. Everyone agrees except The Second Coming, but he follows everyone to Purple anyway. They go through the portal and the episode ends.
Episode Twenty-Two - Parkour[]
When the Stick Gang and the Heroic Pig come through the Nether portal, they find themselves facing a basic Parkour Course. Purple shows the group how to do parkour. Red goes first without failing, but when Yellow attempts to finish it, he fell down, When they think he's dead, the others (except for Purple) see Yellow fall from the sky back onto the starting block. Purple laughs so hard that he rolls around on the ground, then he reveals that, when you fail and fall down, you automatically teleport back to the start of the parkour. Excited, the other stick figures completed the parkour course, but the Heroic Pig cannot cross over, so Purple brings it to the other side using his Elytra and fireworks.
The stick figures and the pig follow Purple to another parkour course, teleporting there using a beacon, which has a timer. They all race over the parkour and finish quickly, but Green was the fastest and Yellow was the slowest. Purple said that they would have to win 3 times to win the parkour competition.
At first, the stick figures had fun, completing courses while at the same time trying to beat each other. Each time one stick figure wins until they're all tied with 2 wins.
This is a list of each parkour course and (in some cases) their reactions to the wins, as well as their strategies towards winning.
After this, Purple places a purple glass(?) block on the next beacon before letting them in, allowing them into the final parkour course. (Mathematically, it has to be the final course, as the present score between all the members of the Stick Gang is 2
-2
-2
-2
-2
, meaning that whoever wins the next course gets the trophy.)
When they enter the final parkour course, Purple does something different: he lets the stick figures go one at a time around every five seconds. At a certain point of the parkour course, every time one of the stick figures take a path, the path automatically switches to another path, and the next stick figure has no idea the path has been switched.
Red completed his parkour course, and a Piglin Brute gives him a trophy. Red rejoiced, thinking he won the competition. Meanwhile Green sees Purple fly above him holding the pig but thinks he will land at the end. He, too, rejoiced when another Piglin Brute gave him a trophy.
Blue, Yellow, and The Second Coming also completed their courses and each got their trophy from a Piglin Brute, which makes them each think they've won. Green asks the Piglin Brute where Purple is, but it says that it "doesn't know". What Green and the others doesn't realize is that Purple flew out of the parkour course with the Heroic Pig. The Piglin Brutes on each course block the entrance to the beacons, which is the exit. All 5 stick figures slowly realized that the entire course is a trap, and tried to leave, but the Piglin Brutes blocked their exits. This made the stick figures desperate and used weapons to fight the Brutes. Meanwhile, Purple and the Heroic pig fly over to a bastion, where Purple hands the Heroic pig over to a Brute. The Heroic Pig got scared and begin squealing for Purple as the Brute takes him to a cell.
Purple then walks up to the main planning room, and there, in a shocking twist, he bows down to a new stick figure of the series, King Orange. Both head into the planning center. Purple begins to check off the parts of their plan that he completed: set The Second Coming and the Fighting Stick Figures up by bringing them to the parkour course, have them do parkour, and then trapping the Stick Gang in separate areas. King Orange nods, then puts a map on the wall, he takes out his staff with a command block attached to it, and begins animating the rest of the plan. While that's happening, all 5 stick figures have managed to escape the piglin brutes, but land in a parkour loop while the piglins are chasing them. However, Green manages to escape the parkour course by building upwards and mining into the ceiling.
Once out of the parkour course (which is in the Nether), Green uses his fishing rod as a grappling hook, swinging across the Nether and onto the bastion. He infiltrates the bastion and witnesses King Orange's horrifying plan: Once The Second Coming and the Fighting Stick Figures are trapped, Purple will fly to their computer home base, ALANSPC, and take their Minecraft Game Icon. King Orange shows Purple the power of the Icon, such as block control and turning into a giant stick figure. Once Purple gets the Icon, he will fly back to the bastion and give it King Orange. King Orange will throw away the command block he has on the staff and replace it with Minecraft Game Icon, granting him destructive superpowers. Green was shocked by what he saw and leaves the bastion. Purple marvels at the plan he's about to do.
Just then, two Piglin Brutes gave King Orange surveillance evidence that Green had escaped. Out of blind rage, King Orange ruthlessly removes one of the brute's A.I. with a command block staff, rendering the Brute lifeless and unable to move. He orders the other scared Piglin Brute to rally up the Brute forces and guard the parkour course, before he orders Purple to follow along with the plan. (Side note: knowing that the other stick figures will escape as well, he went to lure Blue and Yellow back into the bastion in the next episode,) Before Purple could leave the bastion, however, he's ambushed by Green, who confronts him about the whole setup. Purple tries to act cool, even pointing that there's something behind Green. Green, unamused and still angry, slowly approaches Purple. The latter desperately attempts to fly off, but the former anchors him down with his fishing rod. The two had a skirmish, and just as Green held down Purple, King Orange grabs Green with his staff using a ForceHold command, holding him in the air. He gestures to Purple to leave the bastion, and Purple then flies off.
The Second Coming figured out how to use beacons to teleport the Piglin Brute back and used it to combine another beacon, warping space. He ended up in Red's parkour course, and the two reunited. Then they went to keep the Piglin Brute chasing Red at bay.
Yellow falls down while being chased by the Piglin Brute. Just then, he notices a purple "repeat" command block that teleports him back to the starting point. He respawns, knocks the Piglin Brute off, deletes the command set in the repeating command block, and jumps down. He meets Blue and the two reunite.
Red and The Second Coming used separate beacons to delete the Piglin Brute out of existence. They try to get to their friends by combining their beacons with a third beacons, but they warped space not to other places in their worlds, but to an unknown desert in another Minecraft world. Their beacons get deleted in the process.
Yellow and Blue deleted another repeat command in another repeat block. After Yellow and Blue jumped down from the parkour course, they land in the middle of a bastion full of Piglin brutes. They manage to escape the hordes of Piglin brutes by going through a nether portal.
Near the end of the episode, King Orange is last seen locking Green in a dungeon, electrifying the bars, then leaves. Green tries to escape but he gets electrocuted. The pig oinks to him sadly, Green sits down, hopeless, and the episode ends.
Episode Twenty-Three - Titan Ravager[]
After Yellow and Blue jumped down from the parkour course, they land in the middle of a bastion full of Piglin brutes. They manage to escape the hordes of Piglin brutes by going through a nether portal. When landing on the other side, they quickly block up the portal so that they won't be followed. Blue wants to go back and save their friends. Yellow quickly thinks of a plan: building another portal a few blocks away from the boarded up portal. They planned to go back to the bastion and sneak behind the Piglin brutes to escape. However, the first portal they created leads them back to the same portal they just closed off. A hoard of Piglin brutes waits for them outside, so the stick figures have no choice but to go back through the portal. They built another portal, far away from the other two blocked portals. This time, Yellow checks the portal and he and Blue are forced to close the portal again due to leading it to the same Nether portal in the bastion yet AGAIN.
They sit down and think of another way to get back. While thinking, a villager shows up. He asks them to come with him. He leads them to a village full of other villagers. They explain that their composters have been knocked over and their crops are missing. Then a villager from a nearby village shows up and leads them to their village. He explains that all their animals are gone. Yellow and Blue want to say something, but before they can they hear a loud growl. The villagers panic and run back to the other village. They find it completely destroyed. They're completely devastated by this. Yellow and Blue want to cheer them up but they hear the loud growl again. They rush back to the second village to find all the villagers running away. They also find villagers flying through the air being knocked away by something. As they approach the thing that makes the loud growls, they find a medium-sized Titan Ravager destroying the houses. A Fletcher villager stops Yellow and Blue and tries to take on the Ravager, but gets knocked away. Yellow and Blue realize their swords are completely useless, so they use fishing rods to swing around the Titan Ravager trying to bring it down. The Titan Ravager doesn't even kneel a tiny bit as he tries to squash the little stick figures.
Yellow then tries a different tactic by distracting the monster with potatoes. He juggles about six potatoes at once and runs away, followed by the Titan Ravager. He then throws the potatoes in the Ravager's mouth. Seeing that his friend is running out of his vegetables, Blue quickly builds a small and easy farm. Yellow throws food he has from his inventory into the Ravager's mouth... and then runs out of them. The Ravager chases him back to the village. Blue quickly throws Yellow a chest full of potatoes which he uses to feed the Ravager. He then throws a lot of them on the ground; the Titan Ravager gets distracted and munches on the potatoes. Blue quickly plants more potatoes while Yellow places a small redstone machine to wash and shoot the potatoes into the Ravager's mouth. Basically, the machine shoots water out of dispensers to "dig" up the potatoes and other foods and transfer them into hoppers, which goes into a chest. The chest fills the shooting redstone machine that is comprised of a couple dispensers and spinning grindstones that shoot food items into the Ravager's mouth. The villagers come out of their hiding spots and cheer on the brave stick figures.
But the Ravager is tired of potatoes and threatens to eat Yellow. Blue quickly runs up to the beast and feeds it a carrot. They then change the potato farm to a carrot farm. While Yellow is distracting the beast with some carrots in hand, Blue is quickly replanting, washing, and transporting away the carrots. They then shoot loads of carrots into the Ravager's mouth. The villagers decide to also help with the crops and the cannon. They get to work building a massive farm of carrots. A few villagers also approach Yellow with melons and pumpkins. Others also plant beetroot and wheat seeds. They move the cannon further away and expand the farm.
Eventually, the Ravager is full and walks away. A short moment of silence is soon over with the villagers clapping and cheering towards their heroes. However, this moment is over as they see the Ravager returning with his two other friends / family. However, the machine Yellow built could only feed one ravager at a time. Before one could munch on some villagers, he's instantly killed by a destructive beam. (the command was /kill @e [type=ravager, sort=nearest, limit=1]) The second Ravager is also shot and killed on the spot. (The original Ravager, the one that brought his friends / family over ran away offscreen, as we can see in the flashback of the episode The Raid.) They only drop one piece of meat. Everyone turns around and sees a tall orange stick figure holding a staff with a command block attached to it: King Orange. The villagers cheer him on. Blue and Yellow never saw King Orange before and wonder who he is. King Orange then gestures them to follow him. Yellow starts to follow but Blue holds back (possibly because after his previous encounter with Purple as a king, he now had a phobia of anyone wearing a crown.) But Yellow is interested in King Orange's command block and eventually persuades Blue to come along. Blue and Yellow follow King Orange and wave the villagers goodbye. King Orange takes the two through a portal.
Episode Twenty-Four - Lush Caves[]
After being teleported to a desert, The Second Coming and Red walk through the desert to find a way out. After walking for a long time, Red starves and sits down. The Second Coming tells Red that he's acting like a baby. Red states both of them will starve to death if they don't do anything. The two argue on who was at fault for getting themselves in their current situation. The Second Coming insisted that they should've gone straight home so that no one would've gotten hurt or died. Red complains that they wouldn't have had fun otherwise and that continuing to stay at ALANSPC is way too boring. The Second Coming blames Red, saying that because of him, they got separated from Blue, Yellow, and Green, and don't know where they are. Red blames The Second Coming, saying they got separated because The Second Coming was the one that suggested combining three beacons to transport them to other Minecraft worlds, and now they're lost and separated. Angered by Red's accusation, The Second Coming attacks Red and the two start to fight with each other, ignoring the fact that they are starving. The fight takes place when it slowly turns into nighttime and hostile mobs appear and start to attack the two stick figures as well. The two manage to not only manage to kill the mobs while fighting each other but even start using the mobs as offensive weapons by hurling or shoving them at each other.
While they're fighting, Red runs at an azalea tree, and just as The Second Coming charges at him the ground gave way, and they both fell into a lush cave. However, the two are unfazed by this and continue to fight, tumbling through different caves like an amethyst geode and an aquifer.
They came to a mineshaft and fought in the minecart as it barreled down a set of tracks. Eventually, the tracks ended, upsetting the minecart and dumping Red and The Second Coming into an underground pool of water. The two continue the fight by yanking each other's legs as they swim for the surface through glow squid and schools of axolotls. After emerging from the pool, The Second Coming pursued Red up some conveniently placed dripstone leaves, until they reached a mineshaft bridge, when The Second Coming finally caught up to Red, pinned him down, and began to punch him.
But just then, the two notice their surroundings for the first time and realize that they are in a cave and stop fighting. The Second Coming realized that if they had gone straight home, they wouldn't have seen the beautiful wonders of the cave and decides that Red was right. The Second Coming picks a bright golden glow berry from a nearby vine and gives it to Red, who gobbles it down. (In the full season 3 release, The Second Coming eats a glow berry as well.) The two share a moment admiring the beauty of the cave until a player character in iron armor shows up and sees the two stick figures, whose name is alexcrafter28.
Understandably confused by the presence of stick figures in Minecraft, he tries to attack the two with a bow and arrow, but Red easily catches the arrows and throws them away. The two stick figures soon realize that there's a desktop behind the player's head, represented by a projection.
The two go through it, getting into the player's desktop. The player pauses the game and tries to catch the two on the desktop, but they easily get out by sending an email to Alan Becker with them included inside of it and gets into Alan's PC. Soon after they return home, they see Purple coming out of the portal. He was just getting ready to get the Master Block when he notices the two and is very shocked to see them.
Episode Twenty-Five - The Ultimate Weapon[]
Green is still trapped in a jail cell in King Orange's bastion[2] from episode 22 on the same day. He tries to break the cage using a diamond pickaxe, and gets shocked by the electrocuted bars. Then he tries to bash out the bars with a diamond shovel, and got shocked again, before casting a fishing rod to try and forcibly break the cages, but the hook and lure broke off. He then hurls an ender pearl at the cell wall, only to be smacked into the wall as he teleported–still inside the cell, however it gives him another idea. Green finally manages to escape by shooting an ender pearl out of the cage with a piston. He then rescues the Heroic Pig (whose cage wasn't electrified because he's a pig; he can't break out), and the two escape the dungeon.
Meanwhile, back in ALANSPC, The Second Coming and Red meet Purple, who had just entered through the Nether Portal. Purple greets the two, before searching for the Minecraft Game Icon, only to find that it is missing in the taskbar. Being suspicious of Purple, Red and The Second Coming show the Minecraft Game Icon hidden in the taskbar to Purple.
Back in the Nether, King Orange brings Yellow and Blue to a spacious room made of quartz known as the "throne room", where Mellohi (by C418) is playing on a jukebox. After changing a portrait of himself to prevent the two Fighting Stick Figures from becoming suspicious of his identity (from a picture of him with the Minecraft Game Icon staff releasing the white void to a picture of him with a command blocks staff), he invites the two to sit down on two thrones, crowning Blue and Yellow in the process. Yellow sees a command block staff seemingly similar to King Orange's staff and accepts it, but Blue is more reluctant, remembering the last time he was crowned and almost died in a void. However, upon being given a throne with nether warts growing on the armrests by King Orange, he accepts his crown as well.
Meanwhile, Purple attempts to nonchalantly take the Minecraft Game Icon, but Red and The Second Coming block him, both now more suspicious at him than before. After failing to flank the two stick figures, Purple equips his Elytra and prepares to steal the Block by force, surprising Red and The Second Coming.
Back at the Nether, Green and the Heroic Pig sneak above some Piglin Brutes to get to the room where Yellow and Blue were kept. Although Green does so successfully, he is prevented access to the room by King Orange, who secretly blocks the stick figure from entering while Yellow is suspicious of Green's attempts. Finally, Green manages to get in by blowing a hole in the room with TNT, knocking King Orange back. Green explains King Orange's plan to gain the Minecraft Game Icon; thankfully, Yellow and Blue believe Green and reunites with him and the Heroic Pig.
However, King Orange has had enough. Now that his plans were exposed, he recovered from the explosion, and prepares to battle the stick figures, swapping the Mellohi music disc for Pigstep (by Lena Raine), raises the ceiling by cloning chunks and create cages to imprison the stick figures in. (The Pigstep music is actually a remix, and can be found here)
In ALANSPC, Purple finally takes action and tries to take the Minecraft Game Icon, but is attacked by The Second Coming and Red, while Green, Blue, and Yellow fight off against King Orange.
The three stick figures successfully defeat King Orange and restrain him, taking his staff; however, Purple manages to take the Minecraft Game Icon, escaping into the Nether, causing all items and blocks created by said block to vanish, including the Nether Portal, preventing The Second Coming from chasing after Purple. Red, however, manages to enter the Portal before it is destroyed.
In the throne room, Green, Yellow and Blue are stunned by the sudden disappearance of their items and inventory, due to the Minecraft Game Icon being taken. The Heroic Pig unfortunately disappeared as well. Now unrestrained, King Orange ruthlessly takes the Stick Figures by surprise and takes back his staff from Yellow, forceholding all of them in the cages.
With help from the Baby Piglin from Episode 20, along with a Hoglin, Red manages to hitch a ride to chase Purple with the Minecraft Game Icon.
Without Minecraft, The Second Coming is trapped, until he had the brilliant idea of sending himself to alexcrafter28's computer via the mail app, just like what he and Red had done during the previous episode. alexcrafter28 was searching for information about Red and The Second Coming, who had infiltrated his computer prior. There, The Second Coming smashed out of a notification and took his Minecraft app. Despite alexcrafter28's attempt to stop The Second Coming, he managed to email himself back to ALANSPC, he tested to see if the Minecraft Game icon was faulty in any way, by testing with building cobblestone. The Second Coming eventually discovers an unusual glow he hadn't seen before, in which he discovered he could levitate, he used his Minecraft Game Icon to rebuild the portal.
Meanwhile, Red manages to take back the Minecraft Game Icon from Purple after a quick aerial skirmish, but King Orange restricts his movement using a forcehold command and throws Red into a cage. Purple flies down, bows to King Orange and gives him the Minecraft Game Icon. King Orange throws away his command block across the floor, and adds the Minecraft Game Icon into his staff. The moment it connected, he ruthlessly unleashes its power with an energy beam, destroying a portion of the bastion and slaughtering a few Piglin Brutes. Purple tries to hold the staff to have a go, thinking King Orange would share his power with him, but King Orange holds Purple away from the staff and blasts him away to betray him, stunning him momentarily.
King Orange then creates an enormous destructive black energy beam, creating a black hole in the Nether. Before he can continue on with his rampage, he's shocked to see The Second Coming and gets launched backwards. The Second Coming then frees the Fighting Stick Figures, and quickly equips them with armor and weapons, before King Orange knocks The Second Coming out of the bastion and the duo begins to fight each other. King Orange is more powerful than The Second Coming because of his stronger block control and summoning massive amounts of arrows, but The Second Coming is more strategic and counters his moves using more unique weapons, such as Minecart TNTs and rails, before ender-pearling behind King Orange and facing him off.
Meanwhile, Purple, who is still loyal to King Orange, commands the remaining army of Piglin Brutes to stop the Fighting Stick Figures from assisting The Second Coming in his fight.
During the battle between the two orange stick figures, one is normal & short and one is dark & tall, The Second Coming attempts to destroy the black hole, but King Orange stops The Second Coming from destroying it, causing King Orange to slowly gain the upper hand. He sends a barrage of fireballs at The Second Coming, forcing him to create multiple Nether Portals to vacuum the fire balls up, which is where the others would end up going to.
As the two stick figures continue fighting, the Fighting Stick Figures battle the horde of Piglin Brutes, decimating them and slowly turning the tide against Purple. Seeing that the army is losing, Purple attempts to fly away on his Elytra, but Green and Yellow quickly hooks Purple down. As he struggles to escape, he wanted King Orange to help him, but King Orange merely flies away and abandons him. Finally realizing that King Orange had only used him to achieve his plans, Purple releases his Elytra and flees the battle scene, with Green quickly taking his Elytra. Yellow tries to stop Green from going after Purple, but he refuses and chases after Purple into a Nether Portal.
With the black hole expanding, it begins to suck up everything in the Nether, including the mobs and the bastion. Red is pulled away towards the black hole, but luckily floats into one of the Nether Portals created earlier by The Second Coming. Blue tries catching Red and nearly gets sucked to the black hole as well, but is hooked by Yellow. Blue and Yellow then used their fishing rods to reel down to the exposed throne room. Yellow sees the command block that was thrown away from King Orange's staff; both agree to take the block with it, and the two decided to enter through to the portal and return to the village.
In the heated battle between the duo, King Orange continues to dominate against The Second Coming, but The Second Coming begins to even the battle tide, and counters King Orange's moves, before clashing once more, stick figure vs. stick figure. The Second Coming uses King Orange to launch himself into the black hole, and then uses his Minecraft Game Icon to destroy it. In a last desperate attempt to defeat The Second Coming, King Orange attempts to destroy The Second Coming's Minecraft Game Icon with his very own inside of the black hole. The result ends up destroying the black hole in a brilliant explosion.
The explosion was so destructive, it knocks the two icons out of their hands, and sends The Second Coming to another of the Nether Portals he created, while King Orange lands in the throne room, lying on the jukebox in defeat, causing the music disc to pop out, with his crown on the floor.
Meanwhile, at the end of the episode, The Second Coming comes out of the portal and falls into a giant hole, landing in a large dripstone cave, where a sculk sensor senses his presence.
Episode Twenty-Six - The Warden[]
After falling down a deep hole, The Second Coming gets up and notices that he's in a Dripstone Cave, and that he's next to a Sculk Sensor. He thinks of a plan by using blocks to tower out of the cave, but then he remembers that the Minecraft Game Icon that he possesses got lost in the previous fight against King Orange. The Second Coming puts his hands on his hips, making the Sculk Sensor croak. He hits the ground multiple times and finds out that they detect vibrations. Without blocks to climb, The Second Coming tries to climb up the walls of the cave and up to the hole, but to no avail, he only feels exhausted halfway through, and falls all the back to the cave floor. Meanwhile, a mysterious figure is limping in the background.
The Second Coming climbs the cave walls a few more times, but fails. Frustrated, he walks back to where he fell into the cave. The Sculk Sensor croaks again as he sits, which made The Second Coming so mad he accidentally destroys it in a fit of rage.
At that very moment, the figure in the background suddenly lit up with blue light. The Second Coming stops and looks at it with uneasiness. Then it roars, revealing to be a Warden and begins chasing The Second Coming, terrifying him so badly that he runs all the way to an Ancient City. There, The Second Coming manages to hide behind a pillar for some time. He looks left and right, and slowly tiptoes out, only to find out the Warden vanished somehow, while The Second Coming was sneaking, the Warden emerged from a huge patch of sculk blocks and walks around. Realizing that the Warden is blind but can hear vibrations, The Second Coming begins to walk backwards very slowly but his foot accidentally hits a Sculk Shrieker, alerting the Warden. The Warden roars and begins chasing him.
While he's running, The Second Coming finds a building to hide in from the Warden, and discovers a chest in the Ancient City. Knowing that the Warden is blind, The Second Coming sneaks past it and opens it, hoping that it contains weapons and blocks, but the chest made a noise as it opened and The Second Coming panicked. The Warden quickly finds The Second Coming inside the building, and chases him again. The Second Coming throws a candle to lure the Warden away, and is able to loot the chest of its materials. The Warden hears the vibration and chases The Second Coming.
After getting far away from the Warden, The Second Coming finds quickly that his new items, a stick, a book, a candle, and an enchanted golden apple, are not enough to enable his escape. When the Warden closes in on him, he distracts the Warden again by throwing the Enchanted Golden Apple away from him. He then tries to use the items to mine Deepslate blocks, but it releases noise, alerting the Warden. In desperation, The Second Coming slides into a narrow tunnel to get out of the reach of the Warden.
The Second Coming sighs in relief. But the Warden begins destroying the blocks to get to The Second Coming. Panicked, The Second Coming goes further inside the tunnel, and finds out it's a dead end. He tries to use the book to mine through, and then stopped, wondering what's inside the book. He reads the book and suddenly knows what to do. He creates a makeshift flute with a candle and a stick by using the stick to make the candle hollow, a hole on the outside, then sticking the stick into one end. Meanwhile, the Warden bashes his way into the dead end and roars. With no time, The Second Coming plays some music, which incapacitates the Warden. As he plays along, the book that he's using turns out to be a music book, with music that he's playing to the Warden. The Warden suddenly has a flashback of when the Ancient City was inhabited by Villagers, as well as the Warden itself, being a former guardian. Now that The Second Coming has stopped the Warden from killing him, he slowly tries to leave, but the Warden stops him and thanks him for reminding it who it was before. The Second Coming then plays a flute version of Pigstep, forming the music into a picture story: There is a tyrant who is incredibly strong, and The Warden must aid The Second Coming. The Warden agrees to aid The Second Coming; as they were about to leave the cave, the Warden jumps super high and climbs out of the cave into the Nether Portal.
Back in the Nether, King Orange climbs out of the ruined bastion after being knocked unconscious with his fight against The Second Coming. He, too, remembers that his Minecraft Game Icon got lost in the previous fight, and decides to escape the scene and get the Minecraft Game Icon. Just then, the Warden and The Second Coming emerge, and prevents King Orange from escaping. King Orange leaps over them but now, with The Second Coming's help, the Warden grabs King Orange and flings him back to the throne room. The Warden charges at him and King Orange barely dodges the Warden's swift attack. The Second Coming helps the Warden sense King Orange and the Warden throws a heavy blow at King Orange, and the fight continues. Just as the Warden makes his finishing blow, King Orange grabs a gold block nearby and places it into his specter, stopping the Warden from destroying him. With the gold block on his staff, it grants King Orange renewed strength and he's able to briefly fight back against the Warden. But with the Warden's strength and The Second Coming's combat skills syncing, they knocked the staff out of King Orange's hands and punched him over the bastion.
But just as King Orange gets up, he sees the Minecraft Game Icon that got lost previously, The Second Coming quickly grabs King Orange's staff and together he and the Warden went to finish off King Orange... only to see King Orange hovering ominously over them, the Minecraft Game Icon stolen from ALANSPC in his hand.
Episode Twenty-Seven - Monster School[]
The camera goes upwards to the portal Red had gone through, passes through it, and we see Red tumbling through the clear air, crashing right through the stone roof of a huge school-like building with weathered copper blocks that display a capital “M” on the front wall (Monster School).
Red crashes into what appears to be a storage room. He walks to the room's door, and looks out through the door's window. Red sees many monsters. Zombee (a zombie), Skellington (a skeleton), Creep (a creeper), Spider (a spider), Cavell (a cave spider), Zupay (a baby zombie villager), Silvester (a silverfish), Mucus (a slime), Maggie (a magma cube), Witton (a Wither Skeleton), Zombieswine (a zombified piglin), Ghist (a ghast), Blaise (a blaze), Endie (an enderman), and Multus (a wither). The mobs stare at Red, but shortly lost interest in him. Herobrine motioned for the mobs to come inside the classroom behind those doors, and they obey.
Herobrine suddenly notices Red, who was the only person left standing in the hallway. Confused, he walks right up to Red and looks at him closely, scratching his head in bafflement, thinking he has seen Red before. Red, however, remembers that Herobrine had possessed his body before back in Animation vs. Minecraft back on December 15, 2015, so he folded his arms, lowered his head, and tried as hard as he could to not look at Herobrine. Herobrine examines Red for a bit longer, but he does not seem to recognize Red in any way. Red tries to run away, but Herobrine uses telekinesis to lift him up and hurls him through the doors. In the classroom, the students all stand or float behind their desks.
Herobrine explains the first lesson: "Sneaking". The mobs and Red get teleported by Herobrine to a dark forest, as Herobrine summons a clone of Steve from himself. Zombee was up first, and he attemped to sneak towards Steve, but Steve turns around and kills him. Next up was Spider, who did a few stretches before jumping towards Steve, but was killed. Creep was the next up, exploding behind Steve and killing him. His body was reassembled and returns to the group. Skellington was next. He tried to attack Steve with arrows, but all of them miss, and he is knocked out. Blaise, Witton and Zupay all succeed. Maggie was next, which prompts Red to run away, only to be teleported back into the air by Herobrine, which angered Endie, Skellington & Spider, and the Maggie is seen jumping back, presumingly succeeded. While Zombieswine was attacking Steve, Red attempts to escape, but is beaten by the mobs. Zombieswine respawned before his head reattached to his body, assuming he had his head cut off by Steve and failed. Mucus was next as he jumped off screen.
Red slowly backs away once more as Mucus jumps back to the group, before Ghist went forwards for her turn. She shot a fireball at Steve, but Steve knocked the fireball back to its sender without even looking at the fireball, as Ghist screamed in pain before dying. The next one up was Cavell, who grabbed Steve and killed him. Multus was up next and easily finishes up Steve with a Wither skull. Silvester is then seen digging into the ground before bursting through the crafting table to kill Steve. Endie was next, as he teleported around the trees before screaming at Steve, but Steve isn't scared of that, and repeatedly stabs Endie until he dies.
Red is up last, being pushed out by Skellington. Red slowly sneaks over to Steve, only to get tripped by Spider in the middle of his attempt while the rest of the mobs laughed at his misery of getting chased down by Steve. The mobs and Red get teleported back to the classroom, as Herobrine shows out the grades of the respective mobs. Red sees his grade: a solid F. Some of the mobs mocked his poor grade, while Herobrine rearranges everyone into their seats and continues with the next lesson, which was running.
A montage is shown showing Red attempting to try the lessons, but getting tripped and attacked by the mobs. As the rest of the grades finally unveiled, it was revealed that Red had five solid F's in each course. Herobrine then wipes off the grades, before giving the class a final exam race where the class has to use all their skills from the previous lessons to complete the race. Herobrine slides back in slowly to his desk, and rearranged the class back into their desks, before assigning colored headbands to the mobs, in orange, yellow, green and blue.
Shortly after, the teams were teleported onto the starting line by Herobrine. Endie, Skellington, Spider and Red were in the Yellow team, but the first three slumped when they saw the stickman on their team, causing Red to cross his arms and huff.
Red then looks back at the Nether portal all the way up above the school, before he's teleported to a starting line along with the rest of the mobs. Here, Herobrine shows the mobs a golden trophy, before flying to the top of a mountain. After Herobrine puts down the trophy, he cloned himself massively, as the clones flew to their designated places.
The race prepares to start, and once the lights turned green, everyone except Red rushes out all at once, pushing each other down along the way. But Red is seen rubbing his hands together nervously, hoping to run, as he looks up at Herobrine, who falls asleep on top of the mountain. Seeing his chance, Red runs away. He stops for a brief moment, and looks back to the mobs, and he saw his team getting knocked down by the rest of the mobs and ending up in dead last. He then takes off his headband and runs on.
Everyone had to sneak past a group of three Steve clones in the middle of smelting and crafting. The Blue Team had generally little trouble with that, before the Green Team went about their own business, and the three clones respawned. Red sneaks up to the roof and looks at the portal, but then sees his team getting harassed by the Steve clones, so he decides to intervene. With the mobs, they had just got kicked to a lower level of the hill, and a clone was about to finish off Endie with a stab, before a yellow string intervenes, and the camera pans out to reveal Red grabbing the clone's sword. He makes good use of his headband as a lasso, roping in his targets and finishes them easily with a few stabs, before putting his headband on once more.
The next obstacle was five Steve clones armed with iron swords and each had a pair of Elytra to harden the difficulty. Seeing this, Endie pushes Skellington out, and motions for him to shoot down the clones. Skellington nods, as he pulls his bow and shoots multiple arrows, they all miss, before Red tapped Skellington on his shoulder, and turned his bow backwards while he wasn't looking. This time, the Skellington finally hit a shot.
Now boosted with confidence, Skellington shot four more arrows at its targets, each one finding their respective target, as the mobs cheered while sharing high-fives. Red also wanted one, only to get rejected by the mobs. The mobs and Red raced across the bridge, before stopping on the small hill near the second storeroom, where seven Steve clones are guarding said storeroom while armed with iron swords. Endie attempts to scream at them to frighten them, but the Steves were all unfazed. While Endie continued screaming, Red thinks of an idea, and pulls out a feather, and goes up the hill. Endie was still screaming before getting tickled by Red, ticking his aggression which prompted him to actually attack the clones. Red then repeated the same move until all the clones were defeated and did not respawn. He then dropped the feather to the ground which Endie stepped on in disgust, before continuing.
The next obstacle was a massive lake, where all the other teams are seen flying across. As the team panicks, Red grabs Spider and throws him off the platform they're on. Furious, Endie punched Red. The now falling Spider, seeing Ghist, gets an idea, while the camera goes back to Endie, who questions what was Red thinking only to be cut off mid-sentence seeing a cobweb attached to Red's back by Spider, who had attached himself to Ghist as well. Skellington and Endie, seeing their chance to finally get ahead, as they jumped onto Red's back, and swung down to drag down the other teams. After a few brief fights with the other teams, the Yellow team reaches the shore and runs on, while Red had been dragged back by the other mobs, Red was being beaten him up.
The Yellow Team looks back at Red, but Red briefly escaped the scuffle to motion for them to go on before getting beaten up again. By that time, more mobs had started to join the fray. Seeing this, the Yellow Team continues running up the hill. More mobs were continuing to beat Red up, and the three mobs on the hill stopped. By this time, all the other teams had arrived on shore, with Witton giving Red a few more extra punches for good measure, and readies his deadly stone sword, ready to finish off the stick figure. The Yellow Team, finally realizing that none of their progress would have been possible without Red and how they treated him with abuse since the beginning, returned for him as an act of atonement. Skellington shot Witton in the head with an arrow, along with Endie and Spider joining the fight against their rival monsters. A brief scuffle ensues, and Red is rescued from the horde.
After Red and Endie share a nod, the fight continues. The other teams pursue the Yellow Team, but were knocked back or immobilized by the latter. Seeing nothing standing between them and victory, the Yellow Team pulled up the hill, and won the race as the screen fades to black.
A moment later, the Yellow Team is seen on the podium, as Herobrine took out his trophy and gave it to the Yellow Team, which Red took. Red started to whisper about the Nether Portal to the mobs. A few moments later, the sound of a teleport is heard, and Herobrine is shocked to see the Yellow Team disappeared - they have sneaked away and entered into the portal.
Continuing from Episode 26 King Orange, who retrieved one of the Minecraft Game Icon, hovering menacingly over the Warden and The Second Coming. King Orange looks at The Second Coming and demands that The Second Coming give back his staff. When The Second Coming holds on to it, King Orange slowly advances, then charges at them, resuming the fight. Eventually, King Orange traps The Second Coming and the Warden in a mold of Netherite and prepares to replace the Gold with the Minecraft Game Icon inside the staff when a web shoots out and a shadow grabbed the gold block.
Red and his mob friends had arrived at the scene. Endie gives Red the gold block and Red added the gold block to the staff. The Second Coming is happy to see Red; meanwhile, King Orange gets irritated that his staff gets stolen again that he charges at Red, continuing the fight. Red blocks hits from King Orange with the staff, then passes it to Spider, who swings away with it. While King Orange purses Spider, Red attempts to free The Second Coming, only to be tackled down by King Orange, but Enderman frees The Second Coming and the Warden, then shares a high-five with the Warden, to let it know they are friends.
Meanwhile, King Orange takes back his staff, then raises the staff in triumph before Red lassos it using his headband and hit King Orange back. King Orange became even more determined on taking his staff back, and made several failed attempts to get his staff back. He continues fighting everyone and throws Red to the clump of Netherite. Red thought that any block can go in the staff, so Red gets the idea to take out the gold block from the staff and add a Netherite block, which proved to be very heavy after adding it. Red runs at King Orange, and struck him with the staff, sending him flying out into the Nether horizon.
The fighters cheer, but Red lay down on the ground with exhaustion, and The Second Coming and Red share a hug. But the reunion didn't last long; a noise was heard, revealing King Orange holding not one, but both Minecraft Game Icons.
Episode Twenty-Eight - The Raid[]
Yellow and Blue arrive in the village, the same village from Titan Ravager - AVM Shorts Episode 23. They cheer victoriously, having taken the command block away from King Orange, and then hear noises from the village, only to find out the village is currently under attack from an illager raid.
Villagers are seen being forced into captivity. Yellow and Blue try to escape but get caught and thrown into a dirt cell along with many villagers. The Villagers rejoice to see the two stick figures, who have saved them once before. Yellow takes out his Command Block and shows it to the villagers. A Fletcher pushes the Armorer and the Cleric in front, they agree to make use of the command block. Yellow, the Cleric, and the Armorer, including the Fletcher, crawl through a secret tunnel, under the village and into the Armorer's workplace. The Armorer then starts to forge what seems to be a staff. Once he is done, they head down to the tunnel, because there's still something important they need to do.
Meanwhile, Blue assembles the remaining Villagers and gives them assigned tasks to gather materials. Blue later crafts swords and tries to teach the villagers to fight with a sword, but many of the Villagers run away because they're terrified of fighting. The remaining three villagers agree to learn how to fight and Blue trains them to be fighters.
The Villagers and Yellow climb up from the tunnel to a small enchantment set. The Cleric places the staff on the enchantment table, and performs an enchanting spell that infuses Lapis Lazuli into the staff. Yellow is amazed by the process, and the Fletcher pats him on the back (as a gesture that Yellow will do great things with this new staff.) Once finished, the staff gently drops on the enchantment table, and Yellow adds the Command Block into the staff.
Blue is overseeing the villagers fight with each other in a quick training session. Soon, the Villagers drop from the ceiling, and Yellow follows suit, staff in hand. Yellow gives all of the fighters Strength II, Speed II, Resistance II, and gives them musketeer hats. The trio raise their swords in a reference to The Three Musketeers.
The fighting Villagers come out of the prison and start to push back the Illagers with ease, the fighting Villagers attack the Vindicators and the Pillagers, while Yellow and the Fletcher take advantage of the fight to escape on horseback. The Pillagers shoots arrows at Yellow, the Fletcher and the Horse, but Yellow uses a generic shield with his staff. The Pillagers were almost defeated by the three powerful villagers, so the remaining Pillagers call the Evoker and the Illusioner for backup.
Once Yellow and the Fletcher arrive at a big cave, the Fletcher asks Yellow turn on light with the command block. They soon re-encounter the medium-sized Titan Ravager (from the Episode 23), the Titan Ravager roars, the Titan Ravager noticed the Command Block. The sight of the block reminds it of King Orange using the block to kill its family. The Titan Ravager becomes afraid of getting killed and backs away in fear, but Yellow gains its trust by using the Command Block to give lots of vegetables to eat. Yellow then creates a simulation with statues to recap what King Orange did to its family, that Yellow took the Block from King Orange and asks its help to ally with him and take down King Orange. The Titan Ravager crushes King Orange's statue and accepts Yellow's plea to help.
Back at the village, the Villagers encounter the Evoker, who summoned vexes and pins them to the ground with fangs. Blue does shoot the the vexes with his bow, but is provoked into combat by the Illusioner. After a brief battle, he ends up getting pinned to the ground by one of the Evoker's fangs and is about to get shot by the Illusioner, when Yellow comes riding the Titan Ravager along with the Fletcher arriving on the horse. and it scares the Pillagers away. The rest of the Villagers come out of prison and cheer the heroes. Yellow gives the Titan Ravager a butt ton of potion effects to make it more powerful and enlarges the portal so it can go through. Yellow and Blue wave goodbye, and then leave through the portal.
Back in the Nether, King Orange possesses the two Minecraft Game Icons. The Second Coming, Red, and the rest of the mobs reassemble to fight. King Orange uses the glowing white Minecraft Block to transform a netherite clump nearby into a giant netherite axe, and the dark glowing one to summon Dark Mobs of the Warden, Endie, Skellington and Spider. The fight resumes, and the mobs attack their alter ego clones. Red easily destroys them with King Orange's staff, but King Orange slams the giant netherite axe between Red and his allies and sends more Dark Mobs to trap him.
King Orange takes his staff back from Red, and appears victorious, when suddenly Yellow, Blue and the Titan Ravager emerge from the portal and destroy the Dark Mobs. Blue and Yellow are happy to see Red and The Second Coming, Yellow gave Blue fireworks to prepare, The team gathers against King Orange, who summons more Dark Mobs. The Titan Ravager charges at King Orange, who forms a giant Netherite sword and strikes the Titan Ravager. Once the Ravager manages to destroy the sword with its horns, he then summons a Dark Mob version of the Titan Ravager, which pushes the Ravager back. Yellow uses his staff to help the Titan Ravager push back its alter ego clone and King Orange ends up killing it while shooting the Ravager with a giant netherite bow. Yellow builds a cobblestone platform so the Titan Ravager can fight at the same level as King Orange, but King Orange turns his bow into a trident and pushes back the Titan Ravager. So Yellow had to summon invisible barriers to block the trident, but King Orange summons another Dark Mob of the Titan Ravager.
Red arrives with the rest of the team; Yellow clears the Barrier block barrier so that Red can easily destroy the Titan Ravager's alter ego clone. Blue takes out the other clones as everyone else is on the offense against King Orange, who spawns more Dark Mobs. Yellow uses the staff to throw explosive TNT at them, and Endie teleports and throws Skellington and Spider. Skellington tries to shoot King Orange, The Second Coming and the Warden try and attack him, and Spider hangs onto him. But King Orange turned Skellington's arrows into nothingness, King Orange creates another giant netherite axe to knock out Skellington, The Warden and The Second Coming, and then shake off Spider. When the Titan Ravager, Blue, Yellow and Red charge at King Orange, he turns the giant axe into a giant shield to protect himself from the Titan Ravager's charge. Blue jumps behind King Orange as Yellow makes a platform for him to stand on, so that Blue can bombard King Orange with explosive fireworks. He tries to protect himself using the light Minecraft Game Icon to take away the firework rockets, but it doesn't work. Red leaps forward at the right time, and uses the staff to break through the giant netherite shield and successfully give him a huge hit with his staff.
But King Orange truly had had enough; he took the chance to take away his own staff from Red with one Minecraft Game Icon and chokes Red by the other. Yellow grabs King Orange with the command block using a /teleport ForceHold command, but King Orange grabs the command beam and transfers it to Red. He then creates a giant netherite mace. Realizing that Red is going to get hurt, Yellow accidentally throws Red aside to protect him just in time for King Orange to swing the mace down. Yellow quickly counters it with a barrier block barrier, but by now King Orange did not hold back. He goes all out: breaking through the barrier and crushing the Titan Ravager. He then spawns a bunch of Dark Mobs of every mob in the fight. The Titan Ravager gets pinned down by two Dark Mob Titans; Blue, Skellington, Endie, The Second Coming and the Warden gets taken down by Dark Mob clones; Spider gets surrounded by Dark Mob clones; Yellow gets pinned by clones to a Dark Mob Titan Ravager clone's leg.
King Orange flies up high in the air and takes out the netherite block from his staff. He destroys the netherite block, and fuses the two Minecraft Game Icons together. Yellow knew it's hopeless; they're surrounded, they've lost.
And King Orange places the newly fused Minecraft Game Icon into his staff. And fires a catastrophically destructive energy beam up in the air, one much bigger than ever before.
Episode Twenty-Nine - Note Block Universe[]
Green stumbled into a world with flying mobs that communicate using music, and where trees are made of note blocks instead of wood. A passing fox greets Green, and shows Green to a pig, a cow, and a sheep. The animals dance around while singing, eventually appearing to ask Green to sing, but Green instead asks them "verbally" if they know the whereabouts of Purple, but not only the animals do not understand non-musical communication leaving them confused, but also leaving the fox disappointed, crossing arms and nodding their head side to side, indicating disappointment because Green ruined the song. The animals starts singing again, and Green notices the note block in front of him before being asked to sing again and just by playing two notes to fulfill the tiny request, he already learns that music is the way of communication on this universe. He then has a small talk with the mobs, asking for the whereabouts of Purple, but with a note block this time, forming a purple stick figure made of notes and a question mark. The mobs understands his question, creating a vision with musical notes which have Purple briefly looking around before running past them. Green greets them a goodbye and the mobs fly away, but not before bringing along a note block.
Green then heads into a cave on the side of a small hill and finds a passive baby zombie flying about the caverns. He uses the note block to communicate with the baby zombie, also noticing there's different styles of music on this universe. The baby zombie then leads Green further into the cave. An adult zombie flails around, floating in the air, singing and dancing around. A drowned rises from a small pond in the cave, joining in. A floating husk arrives at the scene, also joining in. A zombie villager floats down and also joins in. Green tries to talk to the undead mobs, but they refuse to help and gets away from him instead. But the baby zombie gives Green a lever for him to place it on the noteblock. Green creates more organized notes to talk with the undead, finally getting them to understand what he's trying to say. He then asks them about Purple's whereabouts. The zombie creates a vision of Purple with music notes, showing Purple running past them. The other undead sing the same thing, and Green thanks them, then emerges out of the cave.
Green comes across a Taiga biome, and sees a villager flying past him and entering his house. Green decides to follow him, stumbling across a village. It was very silent before villagers started to dance and sing whimsical music traditionally by farming to the sound of music. Green eventually interrupts the villagers with the note block to communicate with them, but they do not understand him. The villagers notice Green is utilizing a note block and chucked it away, Then they tried to get him to sing. Green tried his hardest to produce a musical note of his own without the note block, but managed to produce a clarinet noise. While scat singing with the villagers, Green quickly masters it and manages to blow much faster notes in higher pitches. The villagers applaud Green and take him along with the medley, but eventually, Green interrupts the song and asked the whereabouts of where Purple is, and they sing back, singing that Purple went past them and on. Green thanks them while the villagers sing goodbye.
As Green finds his way to a Badlands biome, he finds two llamas in the dry and sandy place. The llamas spit at each other as he passes by; suddenly, a milk bucket floats in the air, which gets drunken up and reveals to be a wandering trader, who begins singing while his two llamas stand up and begin beatboxing. As the wandering trader sings, he shows Green what he has to offer, like a salmon bucket. Green finds this irritating and continues walking. The wandering trader being very persistent, continuously shows Green his merchandise and puts a flower ring around Green's head. Green is still not entertained and gets rid of the flower ring. The wandering trader gets more desperate and proceeds to show even more of his sales, including undead coral blocks and other miscellaneous items and shove it to Green's face.
At that moment, Green notices a familiar figure of a stick figure walking in the background. The one he was looking for: Purple.
Purple notices Green as well, and immediately runs away. Green immediately goes after Purple, both divided by a river in the Badlands biome. Green tries to communicate to Purple by singing, but Purple ignores him and continues to run. Green continues to try to communicate to Purple, and Green sings a stop sign entirely made of musical notes. Purple smashed the stop sign and continues to run away from Green, who's still across the river. They come across a steep plateau made of red sand, and Green sings more notes and music to try to get to Purple's attention. Green sings a vision out of notes, asking Purple why he locked up him, The Second Coming, Yellow, Blue, and Red. Purple smashes the vision, and continued running. Green sings another vision, asking Purple why he betrayed Green and Blue in Episode 10 back on June 19th, 2018, and left them to nearly die in the void. Purple responds, but with a horrible violin screech, destroying the vision. Purple runs off into the mountain that proceeds the plateau. Green uses Purple's Elytra who he took from in Episode 25 back on June 12th, 2021 and flew over the gap to the bottom of the mountain. Green sings a vision of himself to Purple, trying to communicate with Purple, but Purple attacks the vision with notes. Green collects Purple's notes, and creates two miniature versions of Purple, one as an angel and the other as a devil. Green wants to know if Purple is good or evil, but Purple stops and releases an outburst of violin screeches making an angry face.
Slowly, Purple reaches the peak of the mountain, and Green follows him. After a while, Purple starts using music to tell a story:
Two stick figures with unofficial names "Navy" and "Pink" fell in love with each other and had Purple as their child. Navy wants to train Purple in combat, but Purple was not a very good fighter, however, his dad is much stronger, Purple always ran to Pink for comfort. When Purple grew older, the training only continued with Purple getting beaten up. At one point, after a brutal training session, Pink tries to protect Purple from Navy, believing that the training was too harsh. It was the last straw; Navy raises his fist at Pink, who cowered in fear, and gestures that he's done living with them; it was clear Navy has become abusive and fights with Pink. Their relationship had nearly no love left. Navy started walking away when Purple begged him to stay, but Navy deemed Purple to be too weak and incompetent, so he left him and Pink to fend for themselves. As Purple grew older, Pink eventually died, but we do not know how, leaving Purple all alone to grieve over and mourn over his loss.
Despite the abuse Purple endured by Navy's hand, the latter was still the only family the former had left, and Purple vowed to do whatever it took to make his father proud. We then see a 3D sequence of Purple climbing and jumping over blocks, symbolizing Purple's journey. It shows Purple attempting to gain his father's approval by becoming powerful and successful, like being the king of a town of Villagers in Episode 9 back on June 19th, 2018. But Purple also did terrible deeds, some including trampling the Villagers for his gain and betraying Blue and Green for the Dragon Egg. He almost makes it, but Navy turns his back on Purple, the egg vanishes into thin air, and Purple loses his crown like he did in Episode 10 back on June 19th, 2018, and falls to the ground again. He ends up on a parkour course that leads to a tower, which is the Episode 22 back on June 12th, 2021. The Second Coming and company run past Purple. Green stops and looks at Purple concerningly for a moment before progressing with his friends. Purple sees King Orange at the top and wanted to impress him to impress his father, and so Purple climbs over and attacks everyone, takes the Minecraft Game Icon from Red, and has them and the others imprisoned in the process. He flew with the Block in his hand while Green was anchoring him down. When he was on the edge at the top, King Orange offered a hand, and Purple felt accepted again, only for King Orange to betray Purple, take the Minecraft Game Icon instead of helping him up, leaving Purple to fall down alone.
As Purple explained his backstory, he broke into sadness. He admits that he always lets himself become evil. In a turn of events, Green offers Purple's Elytra back to him. Green explains to Purple that "good and evil" are simplistic, dated terms, and that Purple just needs friends like them who can embrace and accept them. Green helps Purple up, and hugs him. Now having a feeling a true feeling of acceptance, Purple resolves to change for better and summons a halo on himself, but Green brushes it off to emphasize he should not define himself with basic "good and evil" terms.[3] Purple sings a vision of King Orange. He and Green nod at each other, and they fly out, destroying the vision of King Orange. Green holds on to Purple as he flies to the Nether Portal.
Back in the Nether, all of the other stick figures and mobs were defeated, King Orange gained the two Minecraft Game Icons and merged them together. He puts the Minecraft Game Icon into his staff and unleashed a beam of energy far bigger and more destructive than before into the Nether ceiling. Purple dropped Green on the bastion, then flew to King Orange and punched him in the face. All the stick figures, including Skellington, were surprised, and Purple had taken hold of the staff with the Minecraft Game Icon.
Episode Thirty - The King[]
Flashback[]
The episode opens with King Orange, known as Orange back then, standing outside on a sunny day. King Orange gazes at a playground, reminiscing about playing with his son, Gold. After a few moments, a now-older Gold appears behind him with two corndogs and hands one to him. They playfully fight for a moment, using the corndogs as imaginary swords, then head off.
The opening shot of the episode.
Later, in the evening, King Orange and Gold are seen strolling in a marketplace, where they attend a concert, try on accessories in a store, and buy drinks. Eventually, Gold watches an advertisement for Minecraft and becomes captivated with the game. Seeing a simulation booth where Minecraft can be experienced, Gold begs his father to allow him to try it out.
To allow Gold to enter the simulation, King Orange signs a waiver freeing the simulation and its affiliated parties from any responsibility for injuries attained by individuals interacting with the simulation. Afterwards, two stick programmers give Gold the "OK" to enter the hallway. With Gold in the hallway, the simulation begins: the opening at the end glows white, and Gold is "uploaded" into the Minecraft simulation.
King Orange and Gold in the marketplace together.
Outside the cube-shaped building, a TV screen displays a third-person view of Gold to King Orange. Gold and King Orange wave to each other before Gold begins collecting wood from trees, crafting a wooden pickaxe, and so on. But just as Gold is mining stone, an alarm begins to blare loudly outside the simulation. King Orange watches the two programmers as they unsuccessfully scramble to shut it down. Suddenly, within the Minecraft simulation, a black wave emanates from the Sun, turning the Sun into a black cube with black tendrils snaking from its surface. The tendrils expand rapidly, covering the ground and sky in the Minecraft world and turning them all black. Gold runs from the spreading darkness, and in desperation, opens the pause menu, where all the buttons seem to be corrupted. At the last moment, he manages to press "Save and Quit to Title", allowing him to leave the simulation.
Back in the Outernet, Gold bursts out of the entrance to the cube-shaped building back into the glass hallway. He tries to reach the entrance to the hallway, but there seems to be wind or some force pulling him the other way back into the simulation. Black tendrils writhe at the entrance to the simulation. Outside, King Orange bangs desperately on the doors to the glass hallway, but cannot break them open. Gold starts to glitch. Cerulean is still trying to pull the release switch to the simulation, but the lever accidentally breaks off. Dark Green runs over to the glass hallway and tries to help King Orange force the door open, but to no avail. Fighting immense winds, Gold slowly pulls himself towards the doorway, as King Orange continues to punch the door. The programmers still cannot shut off the simulation.
Gold's death.
In their final burst of strength, arms outstretched, Gold reaches and seems to touch the door, but immediately afterward succumbs to the wind and falls backwards into the simulation. The Minecraft world, now fully black, crashes a few moments later with Gold trapped inside, killing him. An empty, emotionless message is all that remains of King Orange's son: "Connection Lost. A fatal error has occurred, this connection is terminated". Gold is dead from this point onward.
King Orange falls to his knees in despair. The programmers quietly gather around him and attempt to comfort him, but King Orange's grief immediately transforms into burning rage. King Orange ruthlessly strangles Cerulean and knocks Dark Green and Zaffre unconscious before suddenly stopping of his own accord, seemingly hit by the realization that his kid is truly gone for good. Behind him, the gateway to the simulation glows an eerie red, and the camera then focuses on a poster advertising Minecraft.
The same poster is now seen on the wall of King Orange's small house. King Orange throws knives at it, then a chair, before resorting to beating it with his fists. Tired, King Orange then sinks to the ground, and seems to think for a moment.
King Orange's motivations for destroying the Minecraft world are revealed.
Studying the rules of Minecraft, King Orange conceptualizes the idea of a staff weapon to create a vortex, thus consuming and destroying the game. Eventually, King Orange reads of the command block's powerful properties in the Minecraft Wiki, and chooses to incorporate it into his design. After discreetly purchasing a Command Block in a dark alley for a large sum of money, King Orange begins designing staffs to hold and channel power from the block. Nearly a dozen attempts later, he succeeded in creating his first working staff, which was able to summon a single cobblestone block.
Disappointed and displeased by the Command Block staff’s apparent lack of power, King Orange turns to a book entitled "Minecraft Mysteries". Eventually, King Orange reads about the Minecraft Game Icon, described in the book as "the most powerful item in Minecraft"—however, the book lists the block's location as unknown.
King Orange takes to the streets in the early morning, asking passersby for information on the location of the Minecraft Game Icon. After a day of no one knowing the answers to his questions, King Orange dejectedly walks past an electronics store, in which is a large TV playing the beginning of the video Animation vs. Minecraft. Watching the video, King Orange sees The Second Coming picking up the Minecraft Block from the computer's taskbar, but its true power is eventually revealed when Red, possessed by Herobrine, uses the block. Impressed and encouraged, King Orange is seen hanging up Wanted Posters for The Second Coming and the Fighting Stick Figures in an alleyway. A purple arm is now seen taking one of the posters off the wall.
Indeed, it was Purple who saw the wanted poster and recognized the five stick figures from a previous encounter. Purple travels to King Orange's home and knocks on the door, revealing that he has information on the wanted stick figures' whereabouts. King Orange doesn't seem convinced that Purple's strong enough to help him, so Purple tries to prove that he will be of use to King Orange. First, Purple performs an impressive array of fighting moves, complete with flying kicks and backflips. Seeing that King Orange is still unimpressed, Purple equips his elytra, and shows off his flying abilities using fireworks. Seeing Purple's eagerness, King Orange nods and allows him into his house.
The house is a mess, the floor covered with papers as well as various disassembled portions of previous staffs, and equations scribbled on the walls. King Orange grabs the command block staff off his desk and walks to the end of the room, but stops when Purple picks up a framed photo of Gold on King Orange's shoulders at the playground. King Orange swipes the photo from Purple. They both walk towards a trapdoor at the end of the room.
The trapdoor leads to an underground passage. King Orange generates torches and clears some of the ceiling/ground blocks using his Command Block staff, before leading Purple into a room filled with command blocks of different colors. On the walls of this hollowed-out room, a screen with several readouts concerning "Parkour" can be seen, as well as a scoreboard—this is the setup for the Parkour course in AVM Shorts Episode 22: Parkour. At the end of this room is a Nether Portal, which King Orange lights with his staff, and enters with Purple following.
Landing on the top of a bastion, King Orange and Purple immediately subdue the Piglin Brutes, then use gold to bribe them into submission. King Orange then summons in blocks to create a throne, consolidating his rule. Purple kneels to King Orange, and gives him a crown, the same type he gave Green and Blue in AVM Shorts Episode 10: The End.
A fast-forward then occurs, from Parkour to Note Block Universe, showing his evolution from wielding a command block staff to creating a black hole with the combined Minecraft Game Icon.
Present Day[]
Just as King Orange uses the staff to create a black hole in the ceiling of the Nether, (in the present day), Purple flies in from the right on his elytra and brutally punches King Orange in the face[4] stealing the staff off him and causing King Orange to fall to the ground. King Orange looks around at everyone around him, before Purple then kills all of the Dark Mobs (except for one of the two Dark Titan Ravagers and two of the Dark Wardens) using the staff, and King Orange sees his staff in the hands of Purple. He immediately tries to get the staff, running up the Titan Ravager's leg despite Yellow placing barrier blocks and almost reaches Purple, only for Endie to teleport in and punch King Orange in the face. They land where the Titan Ravager is pinning its dark counterpart, King Orange shoving Endie off him and stomping on him, then dodging barriers from Yellow and spiderwebs from Spider, pushing The Second Coming into Blue and jumping off his head to reach the staff, only for Spider, Red, and Green to use their webs, bandanna, and fishing rod, respectively, to pull King Orange back. Before he can react, everyone except the Titan Ravager pins him down, and Yellow sticks him in soul sand, where he is presumably slowed down, with both Skellington and Blue about to shoot him with their arrows if necessary. Purple, meanwhile, flies up to the black hole and tries to deactivate it, but fails. He then tries pulling the block out of the staff, only for it to electrify him. King Orange briefly tries to get up, only to be pinned down again.
Meanwhile, the Titan Ravager manages to pin its dark clone to the bastion wall and kill it. It roars and charges towards King Orange, only for Yellow to stop him. But Yellow makes a fatal mistake...getting too close to King Orange, who grabs the staff. He knocks everyone away from him and inflicts a Slowness 99999 effect on the Warden when it charges towards him, briefly clashing steel with Green, who briefly restrains the staff for long enough for Yellow to take control of the staff long enough to take the effect off the Warden. He and Green start attacking King Orange, only for him to easily deflect their blows and use obsidian to smash the Warden into the ground. He then blocks the Titan Ravager with more obsidian, but it easily breaks through and smashes him into the wall, where Red and Green attack him. He pushes Red, the Warden, and Skellington away with a wall of obsidian while using ForceHold on Green. Blue and Skellington try to shoot him, but he blocks with a generic shield. Spider tries to pull his staff away from him, so he sets the nearby steps on fire to burn the webbing away. The Titan Ravager then charges at him, so he blocks with obsidian, then directs the beast's head into the ground. He jumps up towards Purple with Blue and Skellington shooting at him, before Endie teleports in with Red and Green, so King Orange creates a cobblestone platform where he clashes steel with Red and Green, knocking Red off the platform, before being punched into the air by the Warden, only to be smashed back down. He then creates a cobblestone platform towards Purple, who tries to hit him with lightning, but King Orange briefly makes himself invisible, so he can get behind Purple, who he sets the effects Slowness III and Weakness III on, while setting Speed III and Strength III on himself. With that, he smashes Purple to the ground, then takes his own staff back. He releases several massive bolts of black lightning, destroying Yellow's old staff and recollecting the command block, before dropping to the ground and releasing several bolts of lightning as the Titan Ravager charges towards him, paralyzing it. Blue and Skellington try to shoot him, only for King Orange to block with a generic shield. While doing that, King Orange creates a massive Frankensteined hybrid of the Titan Ravager and the Warden, but even larger. It easily stomps on the Titan Ravager, before punching them all incredibly hard, actually causing a wave of lava to splash up and turn into obsidian. Skellington is the one to be thrown back the most, all the way back to the Nether Portal to his school...only for someone to catch him.
Herobrine angrily tells Skellington to return to class, but Skellington refuses, pointing out his friends in danger below them. Meanwhile, King Orange summons several massive combinations of obsidian in various shapes from the obsidian wave that the Abomination created, and starts shooting them all at Endie and Spider, only for Herobrine to notice, ominously floating towards King Orange. King Orange does the same. Once they get close enough, King Orange makes the first move, summoning several massive pillars of obsidian towards Herobrine. Herobrine contorts his body in several, inhuman ways, before once he gets close enough to King Orange, the latter summons a massive group of fireballs at Herobrine, who easily dodges by teleporting away, then returning after they're placed, and brutally slamming King Orange into the ground. From there, he teleports Endie and Spider away, before proceeding to brutally punch and kick King Orange several times. He teleports towards and then away from King Orange so quickly that he ends up creating a Steve clone, which the Abomination proceeds to stomp on and kill. Herobrine, however, is unfazed, and shoots out a pair of Steve clones from his body as superfast bullets, literally ripping the Abomination apart bit by bit. After shooting out several clones, King Orange blocks a Steve bullet towards him with bedrock, so the clones all take out swords and attack King Orange. He blocks them all with obsidian, only for them all to be redirected into a wall, all killed. Herobrine sends out more clones, all with swords, which he blocks with more bedrock. Herobrine himself shoots through so quickly that he breaks the bedrock, before, in lava, shooting out more clones at King Orange, which he also blocks with bedrock. King Orange then summons obsidian from the lava to try and hit Herobrine, moving upwards, but Herobrine is just too fast, and dodges TEN of those attacks, before King Orange goes bigger, with a much larger branch of obsidian. He does four of those, three of which Herobrine dodges before deflecting the fourth, before Herobrine teleports back towards King Orange and brutally punches and kicks him from all sides, before creating a massive Steve chain, pushing King Orange into the ground. King Orange then strikes all the Steves in the chain with lightning, before the real Herobrine teleports behind him and kicks him back towards the obsidian and teleports to where he's kicked and grabs him by the throat, holding him up for all his clones to throw tridents at him. Herobrine then throws him to the ground, where all his clones end up throwing MORE tridents and arrows at him, but King Orange blocks them with his staff and redirects them all back at the clones, who take out swords and shields and attack King Orange. He uses bedrock to fend off several, throwing a lot of them into lava, only to get overwhelmed and for Herobrine to shoot out ANOTHER clone SO hard that he's pushed away, only for King Orange to hit it with his staff...and absorb it. Herobrine steps back in shock, slightly unnerved.
The rest of the clones charge towards King Orange, but the latter, now aware of their weakness, absorbs them all. The real Herobrine moves back while still shooting clones at him, but eventually simply runs away in fright, allowing King Orange to absorb him. But Herobrine manages to escape when he gets close enough to Red...and possesses him.
Herobrine briefly glitches out of Red's body, before floating up, his head held back, then punches King Orange in the face. Running towards King Orange, he creates the MegaStick and punches King Orange three times, before King Orange dodges a fourth and creates the Abomination to fight him, but the MegaStick is significantly stronger, and slams the dark hybrid into a wall, where King Orange creates a massive trident out of netherite, pinning the MegaStick and killing the Abomination by accident. King Orange easily gets up and hits the MegaStick with a massive netherite ax, then turns it into a sword, which the MegaStick has trouble dealing with. Meanwhile, the Titan Ravager and Skellington, with Blue and Yellow riding it, charge at King Orange, but he easily absorbs the beast, leaving Skellington clinging to King Orange, the former then shooting the latter in the face. King Orange then absorbs Skellington, who spitefully shoots him five times before being absorbed.
Furious, the MegaStick proceeds to take control of King Orange's netherite sword and attacks him with it, pushing him into a wall. From there, he turns the sword into a bow and shoots at King Orange, blocking the first two arrows and then directly smashing the third back at the MegaStick, destroying it. He hits Red several times before smashing him to the ground, where Red recreates the MegaStick, who punches King Orange twice and kicks him once. King Orange retaliates by destroying most of the MegaStick, but Red regenerates it, kicking King Orange away from him in the process, then punching King Orange twice, who hits back, but Red wises up and ducks King Orange's second blow, then grabs him by the throat, so he responds by grabbing the massive netherite arrows behind the MegaStick and absorbing Herobrine out of Red. Herobrine punches King Orange with obsidian, but he easily blocks with his bare hand. Purple then rescues Red, before Herobrine, about to be absorbed, shares one last menacing glare with King Orange before being sucked in.
In a last stand, the remaining sticks and the remaining mobs attack King Orange, but they are all absorbed. First, Green and Spider try to tie him up, but he easily escapes the web and absorbs Spider, while Endie rescues Green. The next to try is the Warden, who punches King Orange into the air. Endie then teleports Blue and Yellow in, who charge at King Orange, before the Warden attacks, punching and shoving King Orange, then Endie comes back with Green, who King Orange easily shoves off of him long enough to absorb Endie. Endie tries to escape by teleporting away, but his teleportation range is greatly reduced by the absorption, and he is absorbed as well. He then strikes everyone with lightning, using an obsidian wall to knock Green, Yellow, and Blue away, before absorbing the Warden as well.
He then supercharges the staff into creating a giant white vortex beam that turns the nether roof into the black hole, slowly pulling parts of the nether into it. Unfortunately, the nether was not the only one affected by this, as the nether portals that lead to other worlds were also being pulled in. First, the villagers in the village were panicking as they were quickly sucked into the nether portal/black hole. Second, at the Monster School, the whole thing breaks apart and all the students fly upwards towards the black hole. Third, at the swamp, the Witch drinks a potion to turn back to normal, only to levitate upwards into the black hole as well.
The stick figures start to prepare to fight King Orange as a last ditch effort, but King uses the staff's supercharged beam to throw them back with ease, harming them in the process. Red, the least damaged, stretches, resetting the damage to zero, and tries again, running towards King Orange. When King Orange notices him, he does a dodge roll and uses his bandanna to get up close and personal to King Orange, punching him in the face twice, before King Orange grabs his head and pushes him into the beam, but Green manages to save him with the fishing rod. King Orange then shoves them both into the beam. Next is The Second Coming, who holds King Orange's head back long enough for Blue to shoot a couple of arrows at him, which have no effect, so King Orange then shoves them both into the beam. Purple then drops off Yellow, the former immediately being blown back into the beam, and the latter trying to take the block out of the staff, but failing and getting blown away as well.
In a last-ditch effort to stop King Orange, Purple walks towards King Orange and is about to take on him. Green tries to stop him, but Purple refuses to be stopped and flies towards King Orange, who immediately hits him with his beam, disintegrating the elytra. King Orange presses closer, until he suddenly hears an alarm. The same alarm...of the Minecraft simulation that killed his child, Gold. But King Orange shakes his head, pressing on, but the camera switches to a parallel between Purple struggling towards him in the beam and Gold struggling towards him in the simulation's entrance tunnel, then to a flashback of Purple showing off his skills as a parallel to Gold celebrating on the playground with Orange when they were both younger, then to a parallel of Purple celebrating King Orange's ingenious plan to trap the Stick Gang in a parkour course and Gold begging Orange to play the Minecraft simulation. King Orange starts to regret his choices, but the straw that ends up breaking the camel's back is when Purple loses his grip and is blown away by the beam, and falling away from Orange, just like in the Minecraft sim's entrance tunnel. King Orange ends up dropping the staff and chasing after Purple. While doing so, he runs even faster while remembering all the times he was abusive to Purple, smashing him away with black lightning in The Ultimate Weapon, angrily ordering Purple to get the Minecraft Game Icon from ALANSPC in Parkour, and, worst of all, abandoning Purple in his time of need. Reaching the end of the obsidian path, King Orange jumps up into the beam to reach Purple, but ultimately fails, as Purple disintegrates and King Orange falls into the black hole itself, also disintegrating.
Meanwhile, the Stick Gang stares at the staff releasing its beam, still on the ground. Yellow tries to pull the block out of the staff but fails as it electrifies him. Red tries smashing it a couple of times, but to no effect. Green tries smashing it harder, to a limited effect of allowing a few things to come out, but they immediately get sucked back in. The Second Coming, thinking, while Blue goes to try, remembers how in The Ultimate Weapon, after Purple and Red went into the Nether Portal with the Minecraft Game Icon, it created a vortex that sucked everything Minecraft-related on ALANSPC into the block, and gets an idea. Just as Blue is about to have a turn trying to smash the staff, The Second Coming steals the staff from him and starts running. They eventually run into the Piglin Tribe, who offers them a ride to the portal on their hoglins. They eventually make it to the portal, but the entire tribe is sucked into the black hole in the process, Eventually, however, they do make it to the Nether Portal. The Second Coming loses his balance and ends up holding on to a ledge, while Yellow pulls him up, he tosses the staff to Blue, who tosses it to Green. Green tries to get up with his fishing rod, but it breaks and he tosses it to Red right before disintegrating, who grabs it with his bandanna and tosses it to TSC and Yellow, the latter throwing the former up, who grabs the staff and just barely shoves it into the portal, as everything around him disintegrates...
King Orange, in a vast, blank void, walks towards the house. Upon entering, King Orange views an animation of his son being taken away from him by Minecraft. After mourning for a moment, the drawing of King Orange grows to a gargantuan size and begins attacking Minecraft. As the King Orange drawing continuously punches the drawing of Minecraft, various drawings of mobs appear, being harmed, as well as the Stick Gang, who try to save the mobs, which the King Orange drawing is oblivious to. Eventually, a drawing of Gold struggles out, only for the drawing of King Orange to pick it up and start smashing it against Minecraft, turning into Purple, representing how King Orange had been the most abusive towards Purple out of all the entities in Minecraft that he swore to destroy. In horror, King Orange starts hitting the wall, wanting to atone for his mistakes, but unlike last time, when he brutally attacked the Minecraft poster for killing his son, King Orange finally breaks through the glass and sees Purple, sitting down, depressed, and surrounded by cherry blossom petals. Running towards him, King Orange is seen as Navy through Purple's eyes. King Orange hugs Purple, and Purple embraces it.
The staff and the Second Coming make their way into ALANSPC, where the blocks separate. The black hole effect reverses, turning the Minecraft world back to normal, before ejecting the Piglin Tribe, the Titan Ravager, Skellington, Spider, Endie, Warden, the Piglin Chief, Herobrine, Green, Red, Blue, Yellow, and the Heroic Pig. Meanwhile, on ALANSPC, the two Minecraft Game Icons separate and rapidly dart around ALANSPC like a game of pinball before coming to a rest in front of The Second Coming, who is covering his eyes in fright.
Back in the Nether, the staff, King Orange, and Purple are the last entities to be ejected from the void. When The Second Coming goes through the portal, he and literally everyone else who's in the group looks at King Orange and Purple, but the pig trusts them. Meanwhile, King Orange takes off his crown, believing himself undeserving of the throne. TSC, however, still accepts him, shaking his hand, and King Orange gives the crown to Purple. As for Blue and Yellow, he puts the command block back in his staff and recreates the Titan Ravager's Family. They butt heads affectionately. After reviving them, King Orange hands the staff to Yellow, who celebrates. Meanwhile, the Baby Piglin hugs Blue while Red high-fives his Monster School friends. TSC then pats the Warden on the shoulder before Red places his yellow headband on the Warden. Purple, meanwhile, chooses to relinquish the crown to the pig instead, and the entire Stick Gang gives him a hug. King Orange, meanwhile, walks away, and Purple reaches for him. They briefly hold hands before leaving together, and the Stick Gang waves goodbye. Meanwhile, Herobrine teleports the mobs back to his school and the Baby Piglin finally gives Blue the nether warts that he wanted the whole time, and the Piglin Chief gives him some warped fungus as a side, which falls off the nether wart and becomes a snack for the Heroic Pig.
The Stick Gang returns to ALANSPC, where the two Minecraft Game Icons are resting. Seeing the hole in the taskbar, The Second Coming picks up the one with a black glow and tells Red to return the one with a white glow to Alexcrafter28's PC. They both return the icons.
Blue plays Chirp and cooks food on a grill, like the start of The Piglin War, this time with nether warts as part of the dishes.
During the credits, the Warden decimates a Steve with his sonic boom during the Sneaking class, the villagers and the Titan Ravagers team up and seemingly defeat the Witch, and King Orange and Purple are shown sitting on the fence of the playground together.

Trivia[]
- AVM Shorts Season 3 is confirmed to take place from June 12th 2021[5] to June 14th 2021,[6], which is an error.
- The full Season 3 compilation video features several notable updates to the episodes:
- The Piglin War and The Witch has new music, composed by Scott Buckley.
- In Lush Caves, the animation was updated so that The Second Coming also eats a glow berry after giving one to Red.
- The Ultimate Weapon had updates to the timestamps on Alan's taskbar, although they are still incorrect.
- In The Warden, an animation error where the lava isn't animated was fixed. Another error where the Monster School portal is missing was also fixed, while the camera was moved slightly downwards in that scene.
- In Note Block Universe, an animation error where Skellington is missing from Blue's side in the split screen view was fixed.
- In The King, multiple animation errors in the scene where Herobrine possesses Red were fixed, including Green being missing, no one looking up at possessed Red, and King Orange's crown not animated when looking up at possessed Red; however, a new error where Skellington is duplicated appears in the same scene. In addition, a spelling mistake in the Minecraft Wiki book where "The" is misspelled as "he" was fixed.
- Starting from the episode Lush Caves, the Previously On sequence and the credits were sometimes removed or shortened after publication, using the YouTube Video Editor. Some of these removed segments can still be viewed in the corresponding AvG Reacts videos.
- All of the episodes are missing the Previously On sequence, though the ones for Lush Caves, The Ultimate Weapon, and The Warden are in their AvG Reacts videos.
- The Warden still has a remnant of this sequence - a split second of the Pigstep remix that overlapped with the episode's beginning.
- An animation error in The Warden was fixed when the clip with the error was used in the Previously On sequence for Monster School.
- Most of the episodes are missing the credits sequence.
- The credits for Lush Caves only played for 3 seconds before it was cut off.
- The Warden credits has a promotion for Alan's Youtooz figure and can be viewed in its AvG Reacts video.
- Only the credits for The Ultimate Weapon and The King are completely intact.
- All of the episodes are missing the Previously On sequence, though the ones for Lush Caves, The Ultimate Weapon, and The Warden are in their AvG Reacts videos.
- Alan Becker had a video idea where the opening of Season 3 was anime style, but it was scrapped. The video was set to public for about 1.5 hours, and then it became set to members only.[7]

Instead, he is just human, and humans make mistakes." - Comment by D7Flare84 on this video, which Alan responded to with "Haven't seen anyone else notice this"
