have fun! also if you want dancing dragon merch: sharkrobot.com/collections/merch-by-cas

I love the fact that Cas just saw everyone struggling to get the green screen and he just gifted this masterpiece

Cas has left his mark in meme history, proud of u king

It’s safe to say that this dance will now be immortalized in meme culture

Glad to see Driftveil City, music getting some love lately!

Nothing's better than acknowledging your creation's success and expanding it even further

I love how cas is taking his chances whilst this meme is trending to grow his community more cause he totally deserves it!!! ❤

i believe there isnt anything better than starting a meme, realizing it, and elaborating it further to make it even more perfect

Out of all the things to be cas’s peak of content, it’s this and I’m happy it is

You know how much more powerful a meme is when even its creator acknowledges it as a meme

I’ve never seen a meme evolve with so much effort

Years ago I never would have thought Cas would get to be a huge meme overnight, and that I was just one of a few people interested in a silly animator My faith has paid off

How is this already nostalgic to me is literally in this year

Cas knows what the community wants

The fact that no one expected this to become a meme is mind blowing

I'm so happy to see this meme spreading like wildfire across the entire internet. You deserve the exposure.

omg this is my fav meme thank you to who made this meme!

Cas not only taking the chance of expanding the meme so that more people reach out to his content but also puttin the green screen behind so that editors dont have a hard time with it, Cas, you're the best🐳

Knowing that this is a meme and creating different versions out there so others can use is literally the best thing you could’ve done, thank you for letting us continue what we love doing

Cas knows exactly what is happening and is now enabling his community to create more content. Thanks Cas! You’re a real one!

I must thank whoever made this. Because it has certainly softened my pain.

Finally, a creator that embraces their meme potential, instead of running away from it!

in a year with some of the most confusing, brain destroying memes, I'm glad the year ended off with such a simple wholesome meme!

Congratulations on becoming the first widespread Meme of 2024. I have a feeling this will be the vibe for all of this year.

This has brought me an extreme amount of joy thank you

It's great how we get to see Cas embracing this even more further

We love embracing the memes, now he will dance *forever*

As a dragon, i can confirm toothless very good at dancing

Been watching this for the past 10 hours not even bored

You know the meme is hella good when the original creator adds something to it too :D

I love that Cas and the team are actively helping this meme reach its full potential and then some

I love how much effort has gone into this, really amazing to see the love and dedication put into these silly little animations!

The long variant is SOOO HILARIOUS!!!!!!!🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣😂

I'm glad Cas and the Driftveil theme are getting the recognition they deserve

Cas could let the meme die (in like a week or two) but instead injected new life with variants of the meme, truly an artist of all time❤

I'm going back to the memes of 2024 bro before it ends it's literally 19 minutes left🗿🗿🗿🗿

I love when content creators realize their work has become popular and they provide new versions of the thing. Keep doing the good work!

Kudos and thanks to the folks who allowed this to happen and made a mark in history! I can’t wait for Toothless to possibly show up in other recap animations like Simba did!! Even if it doesn’t happen, silly dragon dancing will forever be in my head ❤️

I was upset about people ripping your content for their own, but I'm glad you're embracing this part of it and I hope it helps your channel!

i am extremely glad that this meme has popped off Cas' reach and popularity. as a long time fan i am grateful for your incredible art and talent, i always get a good laugh when Cas drops chillin has to be my favorite

I honestly didn’t expect the Toothless dance to end up being a big meme for this.

I've seen this everywhere since the video came out. I thought nothing would ever compare to the masterpiece of the original. I stand corrected. This- This is beautiful

And we all just stop and admire how GOOD of an animator this guy is

*I love how Cas has embraced the meme. We're all proud of him* 👏

We're all joking rn but can we talk about how well animated and smooth this is !? Edit : wtf 1 k already ? :) yall makin my day

best meme EVER

It'only been 5 months, and it is already forgetten by almost everyone

Toothless is a worthy successor to the OG Driftveil Gecko. Glad to see this meme continue to evolve. This is gonna be the staple for this year, I’m certain.

This guy promises nothing and delivers everything we need. True MVP of the year.

The creators had no idea what they released unto the world when they gave us this masterpiece. Now its power cannot be stopped.

Something about the shade of blue with the headphone one specifically rocketed me back to highschool when the iPod commertials were at their peak. I forgot about them entirely. What a trip.

Nothing is better then seeing old toothless dance:)

The fact this meme is a play on an older meme is insane to me. Cas, you are a genius.

Clearly a man who knows what they've created, and is running with it. Love dancing Toothless! XD

The variants of a meme that's became popular makes it even more hilarious. Good job on it Cas ❤😂

It's very very good😊😊😊😊🤩🤩🤩🤩

Maybe he will never read it, but thanks to cas van de pol for existing and giving us tremendous masterpieces.

As great as Cas’s meme is, let’s not forget that it wouldn’t exist if Driftveil City didn’t have the boppinest theme of any place ever.

I am so happy that you made a lightfury one! I kept seeing lightfury recolors where she only had one tail fin and it was driving me NUTS. These are all amazing!

So good 😂

Driftveil theme has been stuck in my head for a month now, thanks Cas

I could watch this for 10 hours and still not be annoyed of it. I absolutely love this.

This is honestly such a great meme and I am glad that there are new variations.

Thank you for keeping the EDM spirit alive with such amazing content!

I personally loved the angry one because it just looked so goofy and very relatable lol.

Congrats on the success of the meme, your content has always been top tier and I’m glad more people are seeing it

I like how he actually acknowledged that this became a meme and made it easier for people to use it

Dang, it's freaking nostalgic 😭

This is going to become the most legendary meme right away, I bet. Thank you for being so generous to provide a green screen like this, it's very awesome.

The proper way to celebrate the year of the dragon. Love the silly little animation and its variants.

The only animation creator who knows what we want

Who is watching this nostalgia meme in 2025? 👇

I love this ❤😂

Dude, the animation is so goddamn smooth. I know this is just for laughs but my god, that's talent.

with a single toothless dance, memes were great. Imagine what awaits us, with this happy dancing dragon family

It have been a year. Time flies

I absolutely love the variation in these I can't imagine how many creators might take the short toothless and make his kids, dart, pouncer and ruffrunner! We could have a whole fury family dance meme.

1:10 I just realized he don't have wings in regular version.

The animation of the dragon is an absolute masterpiece, a testament to the incredible skill and artistry of its creators. The attention to detail is awe-inspiring, from the fluidity of the dragon's movements to the exquisite rendering of its iridescent scales. Each frame captures the essence of the mythical creature with such precision that it feels as though the dragon has come to life. The animators have skillfully imbued the creature with a range of emotions, allowing its dance to convey a compelling narrative that resonates on a deeply emotional level. The vibrant colors, coupled with the dynamic choreography, create a visual symphony that not only showcases technical prowess but also elicits a sense of wonder and admiration. This animation stands as a true work of art, a captivating fusion of imagination and craftsmanship that transports the viewer into a world where dragons dance with unparalleled grace and beauty. The animation of the dragon stands as an extraordinary testament to the pinnacle of artistic achievement in the realm of digital animation. Every nuance has been meticulously crafted, from the subtle flexing of the dragon's sinuous muscles to the delicate play of light across its pearlescent scales. The attention to anatomical accuracy is staggering, ensuring that each movement is not just a visual spectacle but a faithful representation of the mythical creature's physiology. The animators have taken the time to breathe life into every inch of the dragon, meticulously rendering the details of its expressive eyes, the intricate patterns on its wings, and the mesmerizing undulation of its tail. The color palette is a visual feast, with an exquisite array of hues that shift and shimmer as the dragon moves. The choice of vibrant and iridescent tones adds an ethereal quality, making the dragon appear as if it's bathed in an otherworldly glow. The choreography is a true marvel, seamlessly blending powerful, sweeping movements with delicate, nuanced gestures. Each dance sequence is a storytelling feat, conveying a rich tapestry of emotions, from the fierce exuberance of soaring through the air to the tender vulnerability in moments of quiet introspection. What truly elevates this animation is its ability to evoke a profound emotional connection. The dragon's expressive eyes convey a myriad of feelings, forging a bond between the animated creature and the viewer. The music, perfectly synchronized with the dance, serves as the soulful heartbeat that amplifies the emotional resonance. In essence, this animation transcends the realm of mere visual spectacle; it is a symphony of technical brilliance, artistic vision, and emotional depth, weaving together a tapestry of fantasy and reality that captivates the senses and leaves an indelible mark on the viewer's imagination.

I make my dad listen to this every day 😂

We can safely say this guy loves his community

0:52 party toothless lol

Something we didn't know we needed. But is going to shape a huge meme.

I saw this in VRChat first, but I knew exactly who came up with it. Cas, you have such a distinct art direction and it's amazing. Keep it up!

I find it eerie, but also hilarious how he always looks at us, even when his back is turned

U JUST MADE MY CHILDHOOD SONG OF DRIFTWELL CITY (from pokemon black and white)TO THIS DREAMWORK HOW TO TRAIN YOUR DRAGON MEME🥲🥲🥲🥲🥲🥲

I was waiting for something that could make this meme live more and more and more, but its own creator made it live for eternity.
