    A new climbing animation would certainly be fun! But what do you mean by a crawling animation? Crawling isn't even a mechanic right now. Are you proposing Mojang add crawling to Minecraft? If so, then tell us why it is a good idea, how we would use it, etc.

    Definitely climbing, as it is rather bland at the moment... especially since they updated swimming. 
    As for crawling, it would have to be a clicked action, not a held-button action.

    However, what we really need is a sitting action.

    Animation for climbing? Yes! 

    But crawling... nah!

    There should be a jumping animation! 

    And a riding animation! 

    And an animation for sneaking while blocking with a shield!

    Macchu I think it makes sense, since we can swim through one block high gaps.

    Just a sitting action would make the roleplaying aspect of the game much more fun. I think it could very easily be done with a /sit command. Since it's not a primary part of the gameplay i think limiting actions like these to a command would be nice

    It would be interesting if they add animations similar to minecraft dungeons, The attack animations and the inclination to run, have seen the trailer of village and pillage ?, the vindicator looks pretty cool running with his ax (being tilted) and the ravager (roaring I think ?), but what I would most like you to add is the dance of the villagers in the game it would be very fun to see them dance like this after beating a raid xD

    Well ... It would also be interesting if they added a button to sit or emoticons (THERE IS ONE OF SITTING) should also be the option to lie on the floor without the need to use traps!

    Ironically enough, we now have animations for crawling and swimming, even flying with elytra, but not for climbing.

    Having mobs and the player get better animations would make Minecraft way better!

    I think we need to change all the player animation like flying running climbing swimming and hitting player or mob and different techniques for sword axe pickaxe and hoe

    Fighting animations would also be cool.
    Maybe similar to the Mo' Bends mod.

    I think that a sitting animation would be much aprecheated. Also a crawling animation probably would be nessesary.
    I'd like to see some exampels for a climbing animation as well.

    I'd love for crawling to be added! I hate having to rely on glitches just to get through 1 block spaces. A climbing animation would be amazing as well. I also think a flying and sitting animation would be stunning as well. Sure would make things more dynamic.

    Crawling is sorta possible with closing a trapdoor (Java) but it is just swimming without drowning and you can't go anywhere else. A flying animation would be cool and the climbing animation, but crawling might give the player the ability to move through one block spaces. Of course there's mods but it would be cool as an option in vanilla Minecraft.

    Sitting on various blocks, laying down anywhere without sleeping and crawling. Not only for mac, pc, and xbox versions of the game but for all including Minecraft Pocket PE

    I disagree. Those who have played minecraft since the OG days (read: watching stampy still building his house as a kid) remember and adore the simple animations and block choices of the time. All the mobs and blocks (like whatever crying obsidian is) are enough at this point. Going to the high level of detail of animations for punching, running, jumping, climbing, etc. does not fit the type of game minecraft is meant to be. At some minecraft will just gradually become Day Z (lol) and not at all resemble what it once was and once was meant to be.

    Especially with fortnite-style emotes now, things like animations just do not match what the game is meant to be (and take up buttons for more useful features), turning it into something different altogether that really takes away from the memories of what minecraft was.

    Adding animations would be an exhilarating add to the Minecraft community!

    Crawling makes sense because we can elytra and swim through 1-block gaps, so why not crawl? Jumping animations would be unneccesary.

    I agree, they should add climbing and running animations or.. maybe combat animations too?

    Since 1.14 now does have crawling, an actual animation for it is a good idea, since as of right now, it's just using the swimming animation. As for climbing (and I hate to reference this, but I'm going to anyway), the old player models for Roblox has a cool climbing animation that Mojang could take inspiration from

    a flying animation would also be good for giving more possibilities in the game besides climbing and crawling as we have swimming and fighting animations
