The Chosen One is the deuteragonist of the Animator vs. Animation series, serving as the main protagonist of Season 1 and one of the two main protagonists (alongside the Second Coming) of Seasons 2 and 3.
He is a black stick figure that was created by the Animator simply because he was looking for a challenge. Although originally wanting nothing more than to break free from the Animator's control and cause as much havoc as possible, the Chosen One starts having second thoughts once he sees how evil the Dark Lord has become, culminating in his redemption in an attempt to save all computers from destruction. He is the creation/previous archenemy of the Animator and best friend-turned-archenemy of the Dark Lord.
Appearance[]
The Chosen One is a black hollow-headed stick figure of above-average height.
Biography[]
Season 1[]
Animator vs. Animation 2[]
After the incident with the stick figure "victim" in the first installment, the Animator was impressed by it so much he decided to create an even stronger stick figure, looking for a challenge. He creates the Chosen One, who immediately starts attacking the Animator's mouse pointer with fire, lasers, and anything else.
After a brief battle against the pointer, the Chosen One breaks out of the application and begins wreaking havoc on the computer's desktop. The desktop icons (Firefox, AOL Instant Messenger, iTunes, and more) begin attacking the Chosen One, but fail. Only the humanoid icon of AOL Instant Messenger is able to keep the Chosen One busy as the Animator tries, in vain, to get help from a fellow programmer.
After defeating his foe as well as the icon for My Computer, the Chosen One tries to shut down the computer, but is attacked by the Avast! Antivirus and defeated. The Animator then uses the now tamed Chosen One's fire abilities as a good thing by making the Chosen One his pop-up blocker.
Animator vs. Animation 3[]
4 years later, the Chosen One, still enslaved, is interested by a link to a site against stick figure slavery, and clicks on it. A pop-up appears that would free the Chosen One, but the Chosen One's pop-up-blocking fire destroys it. In a fit of rage, the Chosen One attacks the pointer and manages to free himself. The Chosen One begins his revenge by destroying the Web browser and beginning to destroy a required essay by the Animator. Clippy offers to help killing the Chosen One. The Animator agrees and the three have a battle in the Word document.
As the paper clip and the stick figure are fighting, the Animator takes the time to create a new, red stick figure called the Dark Lord. He makes the Dark Lord as powerful as the Chosen One and makes the new creation's mission to destroy the old one. The Chosen One and the Dark Lord begin fighting with their powers in the Word document, a game of Solitaire, and eventually make it to the desktop. The Dark Lord calls the desktop icons to his aid and they all do battle against the Chosen One. The Chosen One manages to throw the Dark Lord into a game of Minesweeper, where he begins trying to escape without stepping on a mine. The Chosen One fights off the icons and gets into a fierce dual with Firefox, eventually throwing it onto the Minesweeper game and blowing up the Dark Lord.
Wounded, the Dark Lord surrenders to the Chosen One. The Chosen One spares the Dark Lord and the two begin attacking the Animator (who was playing Solitaire the whole time). The two destroy all the applications and begin creating a whirlwind to destroy the computer. They succeed in doing so, giving the Animator an extremely powerful Blue Screen of Death which terminates the entire computer, presumably killing themselves in the process.
Animator vs. Animation 4[]
The new orange stick figure is named the Second Coming and is somehow tied with the Chosen One's Return. The Second Coming becomes the Chosen One for a few seconds before he and the Animator partake in another battle. However, the two put aside their differences and become allies in the end.
Season 2[]
The Virus - Animator vs. Animation 5[]
The Animator's computer is attacked by a virus called ViraBot. The Animator, the Second Coming, and the other stick figures attempt to fight it off, but are outmatched. Just as the virus prepares to kill the Second Coming, the Chosen One returns and attacks the Virus.
The Chosen One's Return - Animator vs. Animation 6[]
The Chosen One battles with the ViraBot, attacking it with fire. ViraBot attacks with blades and spikes, but the Chosen One is able to keep pace with the barrage of attacks and projectiles and block and dodge them all. ViraBot eventually hits the Chosen One with a series of spikes, but the Chosen One seems resistant to their corrosive powers. ViraBot jumps in for the kill, and the Chosen One defends himself with his laser beams. The Chosen One corners ViraBot, and the virus escapes into the computer's system. It then takes control of the windows and menus of the computer and proceeds to beat up the Chosen One with them. ViraBot then breaks the windows and turns the pieces into a giant version of itself, and proceeds to bite and rapidly beat the Chosen One. The Chosen One, enraged, catches fire and summons lightning to fight the giant virus, attacking with a wave of energy that forces the virus out of the programs and back onto the desktop. The Chosen One then attacks it with a barrage of fire, lightning, wind, and energy, destroying it. The other stick figures are freed, and begin worshipping the Chosen One as a god. However, he ignores them and reopens the portal he came from. He acknowledges the Animator, and the two silently make amends before the Chosen One leaves, unaware the other stick figures soon follow.
The Flashback - Animator vs. Animation 7[]
The Chosen One then has a flashback which reveals what exactly caused him to return: The Chosen One and the Dark Lord escaped the destruction of the first computer by escaping into the Internet. While there, they spread chaos and destruction as they attacked various websites (with slight implications from Word of God that they conquered the Internet), though eventually the Dark Lord became especially ruthless and violent, to a point where even the Chosen One was appalled. Eventually, the Dark Lord developed ViraBot itself, which he planned to send to computers all over the world. The Chosen One, however, envisions a horrific future where the Dark Lord and an army of viruses plunge all computers in the world, as well as the Internet, into chaos and destruction. The Chosen One tries to stop the Dark Lord from sending out the virus, but the two are forced to battle. One virus is sent to the Animator's computer before the machine is destroyed and the Dark Lord is set flying into the distance by the punch the Chosen One gave him. The Chosen One reminds himself of the torture the Animator put him through, but then realises he created him in the first place, so the stick figure reluctantly goes after the virus to stop its spread, forced to return to the Animator's computer. The virus arrives first, and the Chosen One begins breaking through into the computer to stop it, succeeding just before ViraBot attacks the Second Coming.
The Showdown - Animator vs. Animation 8[]
Eventually, the Chosen One returns to his home and attacks the Dark Lord in his shack in a long battle. Meanwhile, the Second Coming and the Fighting Stick Figures enter the Dark Lord's shack and accidentally open big, metalic circle doors. The two go through them, going through YouTube, Twitter, Reddit, Google, Wikipedia and Discord. Landing back where they started, the Chosen One is punched into the water as the Dark Lord goes to enter his shack and put on a wristband, giving him powers similar to the ones ViraBot has, but stronger. The Dark Lord fights the Chosen One again until Yellow, back in the shack, summons the Animator by opening a program that allows him to interact with the fight. The Animator starts beating up the Dark Lord with the Chosen One, until he summons a couple of ViraBots, allowing him to destroy the Animator's cursor and briefly knock out the Chosen One. Just as he's about to be killed, the Second Coming and the Fighting Stick Figures try to protect the Chosen One from his opponent. The Dark Lord causes the ViraBots to back out and in half a minute or so, kills all the Fighting Stick Figures and injures the Second Coming. The Chosen One, meanwhile, is getting bitten by the ViraBots until the Dark Lord orders them to enter the seven websites from before. Suddenly, the Second Coming gets a big amount of power and kills the ViraBots while defeating, if not outright killing the Dark Lord. The Animator re-enters after the Second Coming opens his program yet again and revives the Fighting Stick Figures while falling unconscious. He later wakes up, and the Chosen One bows before him, much to his confusion. The five stick figures and the Animator make their leave while the Chosen One stays, looking at them.
Actual Shorts[]
The Chosen One makes a cameo on a wanted poster in the "Cherry Blossoms" episode, making it clear the public is unaware of his redemption and he's still a wanted criminal due to his villainous past.
He then makes another cameo in "Corn Dog Guy", showing the events of his next outing through the perspective of the titular corn dog salesman as he flies by along with the mercenaries.
Season 3[]
Wanted - Animator vs. Animation 9[]
For reasons unknown, the Chosen One is hunted by four mercenaries from an unnamed organization. The mercenaries are riding on flying ships which blast beams that glitch out anything they hit. Eventually, they fly past the area from "The Showdown", where the Chosen One reminds himself of the Second Coming and how he defeated the Dark Lord. Realising he can save him, the Chosen One distracts and briefly slows down the Mercenaries by altering the weather to create a storm, but is hit with a glitch-bomb from their leader. Still, he manages to trap him in an iceberg and escape into ALANSPC.
Inside the computer, he interrupts a playfight between the heroes to beg the Second Coming to help by using his powers. However, the orange stick figure has amnesia and doesn't know what he's talking about. Too scared for his own safety to take "no" for an answer, the Chosen One takes him with him regardless. After getting the Mercs on the ground, he sends out the Second Coming to defeat them. However, due to lacking his powers, he cannot do it. The Chosen One decides to help him, during which he's hit with a powerful bullet that shocks him, leaving him glitching out. The Second Coming uses the pencil he brought to defeat the Mercs in his own way, and while he puts up a good fight, he loses to Agent, who himself has the powers of the animation program. He uses pause on both of his enemies, leaving them unable to move.
The Second Coming and the Chosen One are then brought to the base of the organization the Mercenaries have been working for. The former is imprisoned in a normal cage and left unpaused while the latter is put in a special cage with the pause button still on. It's then revealed the mercenaries have been working for Victim, the Chosen One's predecessor.
The Box - Animator vs. Animation 10[]
Victim goes on to visit the Chosen One in his special box. Once he is unpaused, Victim decides to toy with him; using the fact the inhabitants of the cage can be manipulated via a computer, he has Agent boost his strength while making the Chosen One weaker. Despite this, the black stick figure puts up a good fight and even manages to kill all of victim's Clones once they are spawned.
Eventually tired of toying with him, Victim ties up the Chosen One and asks him about the Animator; once he lies he doesn't know anything, he uses a memory scanner to view through his memories; there, he finds out the Second Coming has superpowers (which shocks everyone present, including the Second Coming) and that Yellow has a way to bring the Animator into the Outernet. Satisfied, the five villains make their leave to find Yellow while keeping the Chosen One tied up inside the cage.
Powers and Abilities[]
- Nigh-omnipotence: In general, there seems to be no limit to the Chosen One's powers and he can seemingly do anything.
- Self Awareness: The Chosen One is aware he is a computer program, and is able to recognize and interact with people outside of the computer.
- Internet travel: The Chosen One has the ability to travel throughout the internet, and can inhabit any site he desires.
- Pyrokinesis: The Chosen One's most prominent power. He usually uses fire attacks from his hands and mouth, and can create large explosions as well as use fire to sustain flight.
- Cryokinesis: Though rarely seen, the Chosen One can use a blast of freezing air to encase foes in ice.
- Léizerkinesis: The Chosen One can generate twin laser beams from his head, much like laser vision, that he can use against foes or to destroy the environment.
- Electrokinesis: Though used once, the Chosen One can summon electricity in battle, including summoning a dark cloud and produce a bolot of lighting from it.
- Dynamokinesis: The Chosen One can create destructive energy balls.
- Aerokinesis: The Chosen One can create whirlwinds and vortexes, usually to pull enemies in or trap them in one place.

- Viral immunity: As seen in Season 2 he seemingly has an immunity to the computer viruses. Whether this extends only to ViraBot's corrosive powers is unknown, and may be linked to the Chosen One essentially being a computer virus himself.
- Hand-to-hand combat skills: The Chosen One is a talented combatant and martial artist, capable of rapid punches and kicks while incorporating flips, dodges, and acrobatics.
Trivia[]
- The Chosen One currently has no confirmed motive for his rampage in Animator vs. Animation 2. However, some fans speculate why it started the rampage.
- The Chosen One is referred to as a male both in and out of universe, being the first stick figure with a confirmed gender. It would be later confirmed all the stick figures, except for Purple's mother, are male.
- The trailer for Animator vs. Animation 3 describes the Chosen One as ruling and conquering the computer before being overthrown by the Animator.
- In the official reaction episode to "The Flashback", the video description states that "it's time to conquer the Internet", implying the Dark Lord and the Chosen One not only wrecked havoc across the Internet, but also took over it. However, this was never confirmed beyond this one line and is not supported by anything in the franchise proper.
- For the longest time, the Chosen One was considered the most powerful character in the series. However, with the release of Animator vs. Animation V, he arguably got knocked down to third place, behind the Dark Lord with his wristbands and the Second Coming when his superpowers are activated.
- It's been constantly shown the Chosen One's main weakness is having to fight numerous enemies at once.
- The Chosen One is confirmed to return in the second season of the AvA Shorts. Since the first season has been merged into Animator vs. Animation V, this effectively means he'll be back for an Animator vs. Animation VI, which was confirmed when the episodes stopped calling themselves "AvA Shorts Season 2" and went straight to "Animator vs. Animation VI - Episode One".
- This was later changed in May 2024, when series creator Alan Becker announced the first four entries would become Season 1 of the wider Animator vs. Animation series, AvA V would become Season 2, and AvA VI would become Season 3.
