I'm going to try to explain this the best I can.

I'm trying to make a script so that when you die, it plays an animation before you actually "die."

Now, this script works perfectly the first time. The player reaches 0 health and the animation plays.

My problem is that when I try to play it the second time, the animation starts but it stops itself instantly after? Anybody know why this happens?

And before anyone says: Yes, I know :LoadAnimation() is deprecated. And yes, the animation priority is above Core. I even made it so it pauses so the animation doesn't move anymore. But it only pauses the first time around. Not the second time. I've been having this problem for a while. I've been researching ways to try and fix it but I just can't figure it out. Can anyone help me?

Here's the script:

(Server script in ServerScriptService)

local replicatedStorage = game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage")
local dead = replicatedStorage:WaitForChild("Death")
local debounce = false

dead .OnServerEvent:Connect(function(player, enemy)
	print("Recieved event")

	if not debounce then
		debounce = true



		local character = player.Character
		local enemyplr = game.Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(enemy)

		character.HumanoidRootPart.Anchored = true
		enemy.HumanoidRootPart.Anchored = true

		

		local Track1 = player.Character.Humanoid:LoadAnimation(script.DeathAnim)
		Track1:Play()
		print("played animation")

		wait(3)
		debounce = false

		
		enemy.Humanoid.BreakJointsOnDeath = true
		enemyplr:LoadCharacter()
		character.HumanoidRootPart.Anchored = false
	end

end)

Second server script in ServerScriptService(Defines the animations)

local players = game:GetService("Players")
players.RespawnTime = 30 

game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(p)
	p.CharacterAdded:Connect(function(c)
		wait()
		
		c.Humanoid:WaitForChild("Animator")
		local Anim = Instance.new("Animation")
		Anim.AnimationId = "rbxassetid://MYANIMATIONIDISHERE" -- Yes, I'm aware that it says this. I only put that here for the purpose of the showcase.
		local PlayAnim = c.Humanoid:LoadAnimation(Anim)

		local canbegripped = Instance.new("BoolValue")
		canbegripped.Name = "CanBeGripped"
		canbegripped.Value = false
		canbegripped.Parent = c

		
		c.Humanoid.BreakJointsOnDeath = false
		c.Humanoid.Died:Connect(function(deadplayer)
			
			
			c.Humanoid:WaitForChild("Animator")
			PlayAnim:Play()
			c.HumanoidRootPart.Anchored = true
			wait(.85)
			PlayAnim:AdjustSpeed(0)
			
			canbegripped.Value = true

			
			c.HumanoidRootPart.CanCollide = false
		end)
	end)
end)
