One fan's Over the Garden Wall-themed Valentine's Day cards. They also have a couple Gravity Falls-themed ones and one I don't recognize.
Spoiler: show

As an aside, it makes me happy to see the show is popular overseas as well. Here's another favorite fanart by a Thai artist. While I'm at it, might as well also share a fairy tale take on the Beast's origin story. ...One more theory just to mess with you. *flees*

Spoiler: show Overall, I just wasn't feeling it. But then again, I wasn't feeling it with the original either. So maybe my pessimism doesn't have to bode ill for any of you who loved OtGW and who are really hoping for a strong sister work in TotU.

So ... follow up post!
It should be obvious from the above post that I totally misunderstood what this was a pilot episode to. I thought it was a pilot for a new series called "Tome of the Unknown." Instead I am now learning from the YouTube comments that this is the pilot episode to Over the Garden Wall itself. Huh. Interesting. Well ... A, I guess that means I'm way off in rooting for you OtGW fans that you're going to be getting another series. Whoops. And B, it sheds some interesting light on several of my points made above. Spoiler box! (Massive OtGW spoilers inside.) Spoiler: show Anyway, I feel really silly for not correctly understanding what this was a pilot to until after I wrote up that lengthy post. But I'll let it stand as is. 'S okay.

Spoiler: show OTGW is my favorite western cartoon to come out in recent years - even more so than GF - and honestly perhaps one of my favorite pieces of animation period. It's not perfect, but there's just something about its timelessness and childlike innocence that takes me back, when simply wonder was enough to captivate. It transports one for a little while to a land of make-believe, with curious but oftentimes friendly creatures, that looks fun to visit and adventure in despite its dark overtones. Spoiler: show

TotU is almost unwatchable for me simply thanks to Beatrice's character. I'm so happy they changed the VA, movements, and personality for OtGW.

I thought she was pretty much in character aside from the voice. *shrug*

I didn't even notice the voice being different. Reading the comments was how I learned it was. *tomatoed*

Spoiler: show There are a few other simple ways that really got to me (the timing of the character's lines, the maturity of the character's voice) and made it really difficult to think of her as Beatrice instead of Generic Magical Guide.

I think that judgment of her seems rather harsh, but I guess it gets back to what I was saying with how - if this episode took place during the series - it would be around the midpoint. Given your interpretation of the character, I'd put it directly before the steamboat episode (so in between that and the tea ep).
Also I suggest you spoiler tag that first line.

you quoted it though :P
I know it seems harsh as a judgment, but it makes her a good character and it means that her story is way more fundamentally interesting.

Whoops. Edited.
Although the part you put in the box is like the least spoilerific part. XP I meant the whole paragraph really.

Seeing as it's the spoopy season again, I was wondering if anyone would be up for another stream of this series? I was thinking of hosting one around Halloween weekend if people are interested.
