>What is it with VAs and being degenerates?
I personally think it's because they're often untalented reject actors who get a high when the character they voice becomes popular among kids and young adults. Then they start roleplaying their character and exploiting all the retards who think the VA is literally their favourite character that they have a crush on.

I really doubt that's how it went down. The furry has to be deliberately omitting details or exaggerating things. I recently watched an interview where Jhonen mentioned a deranged fan encounter where some fangirl suddenly grabbed his arm and he rightfully gave her shit for it. The deranged fan later shittalked Jhonen online for it. I just feel a bit bad for Jhonen for having attracted such a cancerous fanbase.

From one autist to another, being autistic (especially high functioning) and having a special interest doesn’t make you any different from any other fan whether they’re obsessed or casual. You’re not a kid dying of cancer, we don’t need special treatment from creators. It’s doubtful they even have autism and a “special interest” because every kid on tiktok now claims to be the most oppressed autist with ~quirky~ SPECIAL interests and hyperfixations.

I've never seen every reboot there was but they do generally have a track record of being ass. But the most important factor is time, shows made in a past era are going to be so jarring being updated to today's standards.

She raised an impressive amount, even if it's meaningless with KS's all or nothing policy. But It's insane that she asked for such a high amount for only 2 minutes of animation, with nothing to show but some hasty scribbles and not even any test animation. She and the studio she partnered with probably wanted to do it the big studio way, employing a full crew on union rates, but indie animation doesn't work like that. You need to be a jack of all trades and do more with very little.
Long Gone Gulch only raised $38,874 and they made a beautiful 20 minute short. Fucking Lackadaisy only asked for $85,000 as its initial goal. People make 2 minute shorts for free by themselves.

The "wah I don't like making comics" in >>1813553 comes of as petty when she's asking so much for an original pilot with pretty much no actual concept work to show. She could literally make 4 panel gag comics to at least show the idea and it would be better than the ammount of work she currently has of them.
I don't follow her, did she ever even mention these characters before the kickstarter? You can't just poof some characters out of thin air and expect people to immedeatly care about them kek.

I feel like she might just be lazy and the reason she asked so much is that she wanted to pay other people to do the actual entire work for her while she just did a few storyboard shots and took credit for the idea.

I'm not trying to defend her, but it's not uncommon for animators and comic artists to choose the route of creating new original characters, even though they may have a personal attachment to their original characters. This is because studios can claim legal rights to characters created by their employees. To avoid this potential legal issue, it is prudent for artists to create new characters that they have full legal control of. This is a strategy that has been employed by successful artists such as Matt Groening and John K. By doing so, they are able to maintain creative control over their work and avoid any legal battles that may arise

I thought about that too, but she was going to do a kickstarted pilot with a small studio, so I assume she would have way more leverage than someone working with a big tv studio. Not to mention that she would be the one funding the pilot (as in the kickstarter was in her name) so I don't see how ownership would be an issue.
And still, in professional productions nobody needs to know your characters beforehand because the marketing is up to the studio/channel after the production is done you still gotta show the studio some proof of concept and an actual concrete pitch tho, whereas with crowdfunding she is the one that has to market the show before it's even been made. She needed to either have a really strong pitch which would involve a lot of development work to already being done, or an already established audience for those characters.

i remember rebecca sugar saying she showed her art to Vasquez and he said it was shit and that she had no chance in the industry, kek. Johnen Vasquez is such a pissy faggot but it makes me laugh that everyone expects him to be ''uwu wholesome and charismatic weirdo that loves his fans'' when all he draws is edgy shit and hates corporate teen-goth culture. He openly states how he hates his annoying emo teen fans that are only into IZ. I also like the theory that he was bullied by Butchman when they worked on nickelodeon for being an autistic goth.

ok but her art IS shit and she didn't succeed, she was massivley subsidized despite consistent poor ratings. she worked well under pen ward, but on her own made a "kids" show that children hated and that most adults found nauseating to look at. she was in the right place at the right time (adventure time staff) to get nepo'd into having a show on a channel that had enough money to humour her for a few years.

i think some ppl itt don't realize how much beyond retarded shit jhonen used to get whenever he showed his face. it was like beatles fans, all these geocities green and black goths with a religious connection to something he drew in the late 90s. drawing random comic books isn't supposed to make you famous, and imo you're well within your right to be super pissed off about being famous when you just want to draw shit.

This is what bothers me the most when people get mad at artists in general.
Just because someone does something artistic doesn’t mean that person must be friendly 24/7 and always have their arms open to everyone and anyone that comes to them, and just because someone has done something artistic doesn’t mean they have to love that piece of art forever and ever.
Is Jhonen Vasquez an asshat? Yes he is, but no one has to interact with an artist to appreciate the art.
Social media has made professionalism die, and brings annoying problems to artists in particular because everyone assumes that if you have a Twitter, you’re part of the show and now you must dance for everyone all of them time on command, and you’re a bitch if you don’t do that, because how dare you create a social media profile to promote your art.
Like seriously, any boundaries between artist and fan got destroyed because now it’s so easy to just message JK Rowling or Jhonen Vasquez to say “h-hi h-how is the weather omgimsosorryforexistingbye” instead of thinking that hey, maybe these people are complete strangers, and you shouldn’t bother them like how you don’t want to be bothered by some literal who that wants advice on how to tie your shoes, when there’s millions upon millions of videos, books, tutorials, courses and pamphlets about how to tie your shoes.

I don't like the show's art style either and the writing was often messy, but Steven Universe was measurably successful. Five seasons, a movie, and a spin-off is pretty good considering that most shows in the age of streaming struggle to get more than three seasons. It was nominated for a bunch of Annies and a couple of Emmys. Zim itself only had two seasons (though it did win one Emmy and one Annie.)

Although I'm not sure it's fair to try and quantify the success of the two shows, since they benefit from very different kinds of success. Steven Universe was often recognized for its music and diversity, where Invader Zim was praised for its art style and humor. Steven Universe's popularity was more conventional for a continuity-driven primetime show, i.e., mostly in the limelight while new episodes were airing. Zim on the other hand was more of a slow burn, gradually building up a cult following that peaked in the late 2000s.

And I have to give Rebecca credit for taking it in stride. I think a lot of people would've given up on a career if their hero ripped them apart like that. There was even a major character in Steven Universe, Peridot, who was an intentional nod to Zim, and how Rebecca always wondered what it would be like if he had a redemption arc. Like… the guy said she had no future, and she not only persisted, but continued to be inspired by him. There's a lot I don't like about her, but I have to respect that.

Here's an example, Imagine if someone like Critikal turned out to be cheating on his girlfriend. It would probably spark a brief discussion on Twitter, but ultimately, no one would care. On the other hand, if someone like Curtis Conner or Danny Gonzalez were caught cheating, there would be a huge uproar, and it could potentially ruin their careers(we saw this IRL with Joss Whedon and Ned Fulmer). Cancel culture is driven by leftist expectations. The more people expect of you, the easier it is to get canceled for something trivial. For example, if you present yourself as liberal or a progressive ally, people are more inclined to react strongly to any misstep or mistake. On the flipside, using nigger is a part of the Tarantino brand. It all comes down to how you present yourself and the expectations you create for your audience."

True. Maxwell Atoms experienced success with a black comedy kids show around the same time (Grim Adventures), and he doesn't use Twitter, just Tumblr. From what I can tell, he's generally pretty laid back and nice to fans.

I'm not saying that's a requirement, and I totally understand becoming a bit of a dick after being creeped on for so long, but when you create art for children and weirdos, you do kind of have to be ready for how those demographics engage with art.

SU started pandering hard after "Jailbreak" with Garnet being made up of two lesbian gems to where fans then started to heavily defend the show no matter the bad/boring writing that continue later on the show's run. I laughed when Rebecca went from coming out Bi to then coming out that she's a "Non-Binary woman" like that was going to help save her poorly written show.

Gotta love how after the show was done, Rebecca and Ian started to badly retcon the hell out of the show; like gems are now "solar-powered robots", the Diamonds didn't "kill anything" and that Steven "never" forgave the diamonds when that was bullshit as they poorly showed that he's ok going to them for shit, the Crystal Gems are "hippies" despise Garnet and Pearl fought in a war and the amount of fighting they did in the show, etc. Feel free to add on

NTA but to be honest when they try to make less stereotypically girly female characters it's always framed as if they were doing it for feminist brownie points and it usually ends up being a coolgirl stereotype in itself. It just doesn't feel genuine, and many times they're not very relatable to real GNC women (at least, not to me).

The three you listed are completely different exepriences, work-wise. Storyboarding alone is very often outsourced; my friend does that for commercials and it's his secondary job because there are months where he can make a lot and there are months when nothing comes at all. In general, facebook groups are good place to look for first jobs / agents that would secure you more work (and take a cut but it really is much safer bet when you dont have enough connections yet).
As for animating; I work in gamedev and there's a lot of work for 3d animators, much more than for, idk, concept artists which everyone wants to be. There are also a lot of smaller studios that do both outsourced jobs for games and commercial work; depending on your skillset you could also work in a marketing agency (especially if you'd be able to do things like motion design). I have zero knowledge about how it is working on animated shows but knowing so many animators and none of them having any experience like that could be kind of telling on how much work is available out there (although there are not a lot of animated shows produced in my euro country so if you're from USA maybe it's a little different).
In general I'd say as a marketable skill, 3d animation is definitely the way to go.

It is difficult to give a definitive answer without an actual explanation, but one possible theory is that cinematographers and filmmakers have found that using low key lighting can be used to emphasize certain aspects of the mise-en-scene, such as the shapes and contours of the actors' faces or the texture of the sets and props. also, new camera tech has made it easier for cameras to capture images in low light conditions, which may have encouraged filmmakers to experiment with darker and more atmospheric lighting setups.

Well, that's retarded. First off because "ace" isn't a thing (cope), and second because that's a total "Dumbledore is gay" move, i.e., an afterthought. Rebecca and several other of the people working on the show drew ship art with Peridot. Rebecca drew picrel.

Again, Steven fused with his dad, and also with himself (recall his human and gem halves fusing in the finale.) Unless you're going to try to argue that Steven Universe endorses incest, it's obviously a metaphor for any kind of relationship.

Like >>1817321 said, I think this is an issue with writing inconsistency. The fact that people can't even agree on one of the most important metaphors in the show speaks to that. If it is sex (which I still argue it isn't exclusively) then why do many of the fusions in the show occur between people with zero romantic connection? Again, do you seriously think that Steven is "having sex" with his dad and the gems, who are basically his de-facto mothers?

The metaphor is a confused mess regardless of what it was intended to be.

I have no problem with horror (love Hannibal) or characters beating each other up in battles (watching Dragon Ball as a kid didn't trigger me in the slightest), but there is just something offputting in cartoons like this one. Bad, aggressive slapstick on steroids combined with limited animation and the caricature, uncanny valley character designs that makes it unpleasant to watch. It's male-targeted to the max.

I actually have faith in this, cause the problem with modern (non-storyline based) cartoons is that there doesn't really seem to be a premise. Take Kids Next Door, it's about a bunch of kids acting like spies and engaging in spy tropes. It's simple enough to state and it would be easy to pitch. Ed, Edd n Eddy is about three friends who terrorize their neighborhood with get rich quick schemes to buy jawbreakers. Again, very simple. You could keep going on and on with Rugrats, Dexter's Lab, Johnny Bravo, Spongebob Squarepants, The Wild Thornberrys. They all have very consistent themes with strong character archetypes that play off the main premise. Rugrats is always about babies doing shit. Wild Thornberrys is always about animals. The only shows without a unifying niche would be slice of life shows like Hey Arnold but even then that tried to consistently portray inner city kids and the relationships had in a very diverse and close knit neighborhood partially emulating real life.
But think of Adventure Time, Clarence, Summer Camp Island, and Craig of the Creek. What the fuck are these shows. You could do a marathon of a random mix of these shows and people would think they were watching the same show. They're just animals/people doing things and you have really no idea what to expect with each episode. There is no premise to these shows. Every show tries to be Seinfeld for kids but without any real interesting interaction or relatable social experiences because these are shows for kids. There is no attempt at traditional storytelling in these shows where each episode could be remembered as the 'hey remember that episode where X happened'. It's now just a vehicle for general jokes, humorous dialogue and anime references.

Agreed. A total lack of any kind of sex drive is nearly always a symptom of something else, not the condition in and of itself. If it doesn’t bother someone to be totally uninterested in sex then it’s not something that needs to be fixed IMHO, but literally everyone who identifies as “ace” admits to having sexual feelings. They just claim they don’t find other people sexually attractive, kek

The girl he ended up marrying has a dad who is apparently also a VA and made a post to IG on his official account about the fact that he wasn’t invited to the wedding for vocally disapproving of the relationship. A bunch of prominent bronies (and even a couple of the other shoW VAs) rallied against him and anyone who criticized the relationship, and several of them (including Saberspark iirc) attended the wedding.

Looks really cool, though the premiere is going to suffer from the fact that it aired on television and is hard to find on streaming. Wikipedia says it's on HBO max, but when I search "unicorn" (the only part of the title I can remember) nothing comes up. Had to watch it on an illegal streaming site.
The art style is really cool, I like it a lot; you can really see the influences, like Tezuka and the Fleischer Brothers. The animation is nice in general (to be expected with a Genndy project.) Some of the VA performances aren't the best, but it's not intolerably bad. The setting is really nice, too; it's steampunk without being obnoxious about it; it's just a somewhat futuristic version of the 1800s, like in Howl's Moving Castle. Minor nitpick, I dislike that the female lead's name is "Melinda" and not something more timeless and fantasy-sounding. The show's name is also kind of bland and difficult to remember like I said before. Super minor stuff though.
It's so, so nice to see something that isn't Beanmouth style for a change. I almost forgot what an actual nice art style looks like in TV animation.

Yeah, but that should be explicitly stated. And why did waking them up early mess everything up? That's what I want to know. However, I expect no explanation for this and realize it's like wanting an detailed explanation of how time travel works in Samurai Jack and/or wanting to know Jack's real name.

I found this unexpectedly interesting, this feels like a fresh breeze after so many shows last few years being mainly focused on being "relatable and inclusive" above anything else. Just an interesting story and concept doing it's thing, while I understand the critique of it being mainly fluff I kinda enjoyed getting a feel of how the world looks and using he environment as an explanation as to why they don't really question why a robot is rolling around the streets. Seems to be a lot of focus on "show, don't tell" and not treating the viewers like idiots and autists by over explaining everything. My main issue though is how the humans look and are animated, the animation in the wedding scene felt really cheap most of the time imo, and I hate the Betty Boop look on Melinda.

While I appreciated the fact that the episode had some actual plot development, I found it difficult to enjoy because of the underlying misogyny. It seemed to me that Vivziepop and Brandon Rogers have a deep-seated dislike of women, with jokes kuje the nurse being retarded, an mother who was insulted in every way, and Stella's character being undermined by her own brother (who was also a sassy gay-coded character). Even Striker, received more depth than Stella, which was really frustrating.
In my opinion, Vivziepop's portrayal of female characters is even worse than the usual sexist male creators(who usually just ignore or sideline them)

Long review below.

Just watched it and it's a huge improvement over the garbage that was the last one. Thank god we saw a recurring villain actually return… only 5 more to go.

Once again the female characters are nothing more than accessories to remind us that the boys are in fact sad. Only Millie is even remotely likeable and she only has three personality traits:

-moxxie
-good fighter
-cowgirl

Every other female character is retarded, flanderised or rude to the point where it's not even funny anymore. Just as >>1831111 said, even striker has more development than women we've seen for 5× the screen time.

Fight scene was way easier to follow than the motion sickness inducing shit from the previous episode. They were more dynamic and easy to follow. The transitions between both fights was a bit annoying sometimes but not unbearble.

I didn't really care much for the Blitzo segments of the episode. He shouldn't have been there past taking Luna to the doctor. If he was going to be there, we should have seen glimpses of him doing things that were plot relevant. That and he shouldn't be surprised that Stolas is able to get hurt: he knew the significance of holy weapons back in season 1. It's the exact reason why Striker was a threat in the first place. It would have made more sense that he said he thought it wouldn't be as bad. He knows it's possible to harm a prince but this is the closest to death he has gotten (that we know of knowing Viv's recent retcons).

That being said the amount of Blitzo×Stolas in the last few episodes has been tiring. We already know about their relationship in excruciating detail it shouldn't be so prevalent that every other character (with the exception of Moxxie and Octavia) get sidelined to talk more about it. The idea of Stolas' last words being 'Blitz' over his own daughter is such utter bs. We're supposed to be under the impression that his daughter being under threat was a sore spot for him considering his reaction to Striker's goading. If that's the case, he'd outwardly say he would miss her and inwardly regret not seeing Blitzo in his final moments.

Once again, the series has potential. The amount of effort and work going into it shows. But the character writing is inconsistent (if even present), the jobs the group do aren't shown and the world is haphazardly put together. The writing staff really need to take another look at their material and re-evaluate what they're doing.

I don't know if it's always been like this but god, this felt even more fast-paced than the other episodes. Why does everyone scream instead of talking? Why are they all always irritated, acting sassy or being a dick? I get the characters are in hell, but do all of them need to have the same "bad bitch" personality? And they don't even say nor do funny things, it's like watching a bunch of dislikeable idiots yelling at each other. I don't understand how they managed to turn this series (that while not the most spectacular thing ever, has potential to be somewhat enjoyable) into some sort of edgy cocomelon, because I can't for the life of me believe that anyone above the age of 13 can watch this in one sit without getting a headache from all the visual and auditory overstimulation

It's kind of funny how the Nimona teaser and the new Helluva Boss episode were released so close to each other, because both series - despite having differences in story and setting - are very similar. Originally, Nimona was focused on the female character leading the story but very quickly shifted entirely around the two gay male characters and their tragic love story.

they haven't picked up a job in who knows how many episodes now. and why is stolas basically the main character now?? i hate him so much. he was unironically more likeable when he was only known as the arrogant perverted asshole that the main characters only need around for his book. i actually liked this show early on but now i only hate watch it. i expect hazbin hotel to be the same for me.

To be fair it really didn’t seem to get the marketing push that Disney usually goes for, there was very little buzz in animation circles, even from those closely involved with the film.

Agree. First season wasn't anything amazing, but it was pure, chaotic fun with interesting ideas. I hope this season gets the criticism it needs for them to go back to the formula that made the show popular in season 3.
Like what is her plan? Are Stolas and Blitzo going to get together in the end of the season? What would that mean for the show's dynamic? Would that be the end? If they wanted fans in on the shipping they really missed the mark on what makes shipping fun; it's the pining from the fans, the hints (or what could be interpreted as), the will they/won't they, discussing theories with other fans etc. I'm not the shipping type but I have sometimes gotten into ones because the community surrounding it is fun. Having it shoved in everyone's faces is tactless and boring. She should just have made her ship stuff on the side instead, or just cut it out of the show and release it as "cut material" when the show is over or when it's taking longer to release a new episode to keep the hype up.

Anyway the world looks so inviting I love the mix of the forest and the medieval inspired town but I do hate Disney's 3D stylization. The potato noses and weird eyeshapes is so unappealing
>that donkey voice
granted I haven't kept up with all the recent animated films but what's wrong with cute characters with cute voices? they did the same shit with the live action pikachu movie where they gave a cute character the grossest voice imaginable. My tinfoil is that they are trying to pander to the manchild geek crowd by giving them a character they can relate to or they want to give a famous male actor a role just for the sake of it. The depressing part of the latter is that there are so many female voice actors who are specialized in cute voices and I feel like they are being robbed roles with these sort of casting decisions.
On a less cynical note I kinda understand why they didn't go with a high-pitch squeaky voice since that can get graining to listen to but there are so many other options when it comes to cute voices. As a kid I hated when cute characters had male voices so I do wonder if children are going to like this character. Personally I find this voice so off putting that I'm not going to watch it unless my country's dub completely changes the voice (which I doubt they will)
>>1816234
>it would’ve been cute if it had been a girl or woman’s voice so they could’ve been like sisters from another species

ntayrt but i think she's referring to the specific type of animation tweening that toonboom and other animation software makes. long story short it's heavily computer influenced and puppeted so you dont get the fluidity of 2D hand drawn animation. Ever watch a kids show and it looks like the characters arms are moving on a swivel and have no weight? it's basically that. but remember toonboom is a software like any other and if it's used right you can still make fluid and gorgeous animations if you put in the work. you should definitely still learn it!

I just watched this and it's a little better than the last one but it's still very badly paced.
The initial kidnapping scene is so awkward? For some reason there's some long pauses between some voice lines and not much emotion in them. Striker's entrance was very quick and kinda anticlimactic. It's suppoed to be a chaotic action scene but the music isn't very strong, some scenes are super fast while others are too slow, and no one besides the main characters reacts much, which is weird because Striker breaks through the window of a restaurant full of people (actually upon rewatching the sound effect of people being scared is there, it's just too low).
Some shots are just bad composition-wise. You can tell sometimes they want to show a cool pose/movement/expression but the character is on the side and there's just too many details on the screen. Like the scene where Moxxie fights with the other demon at the gas station, it's an action scene where the character make a lot of cool moves but you can't tell right away because it's too quick, the animation is choppy and everything is fucking red and orange.
Striker's character was very good and mysterious in the first episode he appeared in but he was pathetic in this one (also the VA is different, couldn't get Norman Reedus again I guess) and his defeat was lame. I expected to see him around more, maybe even have some of the previous episodes be a build-up to his appearance now.
Also someone needs to tell Stella and Blitzo's VA that they don't have to literally scream every sentence. But yeah, as other anons said, way too many mysogynistic jokes from NLOG Vivzie. You can say "it's a joke!!" but it's too much at this point, they've been repeating the same bitch/cunt/whore jokes for two whole seasons, yet there isn't one "misandrist", faggot or tranny joke.

I agree that their issue is that she is essentially copying scenes from better animated works without comprehending the core principles that make them effective. If you intend to create an action scene in an animated work, it is crucial to understand these fundamentals. which include things like squash and stretch, anticipation, and timing.

Most of the homophobic jokes in the show come from designated "bad guy" characters who are one-dimensional and quickly get beaten or killed. Meanwhile, pretty much the entire cast makes misogynistic jokes, and I'd be willing to wager that probably one-third of all the HB's jokes are based around misogyny or just straight up insulting women.

Another problem with this movie is the lack of a clear antagonist. In previous Disney movies, even the fake out villains at least pushed the story forward, but this one falls flat.

From the trailers I got the impression that it's a sociodrama(and a boring one) with fantasy elements which doesn't appeal to kids at all. At least if they had gone with a more romcom route then maybe some kids might have been interested in it. Or maybe if they had played up the fantasy elements and had created a magic whimsical world instead of going with an modern urban setting. A magic world might had made the "elements don't mix" world building more passable too since you could devide them into magic tribes or countriesand it would have made the racism allegory more subtle but then people would had compared it to ATLA.
The concept doesn't look like something that appeals to kids but at the same time it looks too juvenile to appeal to adults. It's hard to judge when the movie isn't out but the marketing hasn't done much to convince anyone

I don't agree with the implication that the show isn't homophobic simply because the gay jokes are only being made by antagonists. The gay characters border on being offensive stereotypes. I'm not trying to be all Twitterbrained and accuse everything I dislike of -ists and -isms, I'm just pointing out that it's clearly written by a sheltered, spoiled womanchild who hates women and obsesses over gay men without ever having actually met one, or even caring to give the character personalities beyond archetypes.
That said, I think anons in general have harbour way too much hostility for women who write gay male characters regardless of the quality of the writing. Vivienne obviously deserves to be clowned on for her shitty, cliched writing, but it's gotten to the point where anons accuse literally every woman who writes about gay stuff of being a fujoshi. Are women not allowed to write about certain things? Say what you want about fujoshis, as terrible as they are at writing men, their shit is still a million times better than any attempt a scrote has made to write for lesbians. Brokeback Mountain was written by a woman, is she an evil fujoshi?

Stop giving Vivienne "credit" for writing the show, this is hugely influenced by Brandon Rodgers who is the co-writer and voice of Blitzo. All of his YouTube videos are exactly this shock-humor of "I'M GAY AND SEXUAL" with lots of sex toys and punching women and kicking babies (props). Vivzie just adds the theater kid musical songs but all the humor is Brandon.

Discarding the opinions of retards going "le ebil fujos" at everything, the issue isn't that she and Brandon write gay characters, it's that they do it horribly leaning a lot on the "yass queen" and "I'm gay and horny sex joke sex joke sex joke" type of characterization. And not only do they write about cringy tumblr-tier sad gay bois, they do so by also inserting a ton of misogynstic jokes in between which are intirely unnecessary (actually they would be necessary if the show was an actual edgy offensive adult show, but it's not, it's a mild juvenile story with sex jokes and curse words every two sentences which refuses to do any offensive shit unless it's women). Not even fujos hate female characters so much. Personally I wouldn't call her a fujo, she's a NLOG faghag who goes along with the openly misogynistic faggot co-writer.
>I don't agree with the implication that the show isn't homophobic simply because the gay jokes are only being made by antagonists
No, the fact that only the antagonists make offensive gay jokes says a lot. If the antagonist says it then you know it's seen in a bad light, but if the protagonists (who border on self-inserts at this point, look at Blitzo being the same as every Brandon Roger character) make woman hating jokes all the fucking time when it's not even necessary then you know the people writing this are misogynists. As I said before, if a show is truly offensive for the sake of being offensive, then you would see it being offensive and edgy to everyone, like gays, trannies, men, poc, white people, straights, children, whatever. But this show is literally just offensive to who Twitter and the average zoomer see as gross, so (white) women and children above all. The demons are shown not having morals, killing children and punching women going whore/cunt/bitch, but when it comes to the gay bois in arranged marriages with EVIL GROSS women and the troons they're suddenly acting like morals exist? The views of the writers come through very clearly.

She’s definitely a fujo, she’s not just obsessed with gay men as a concept the way boring straight girls who PRIDE themselves on being “faghags” are, she’s specifically obsessed with shipping and writing her sad gay bois like soap opera characters.

Vivzie and Noelle both maybe fujos, but their two different types, as others pointed Vivzie is a far mote typical gay twitter obesseded/drag race watching faghag subtype, while Noelle is imo more messed up, Vivzie(and fujos like her) vicariously through gay men but they know its a fantasy, they'll mostly have lives similar to other upper middle class liberals but with Noelle its something in her mind, she's in love with being in a queer romance and genuinely believes that m/m and f/f relationships are the only love possible(if there is a m/f relationship it has to be between a girlboss and malewife subtype of male who doesn't even resemble a man) she was planning on sending Disney an idea about a princess being forced into an unwanted marriage with a selfish and arrogant prince and saved by a fierce female warrior. While Vivzie's fujoshi tendencies are a form of fun, for Noelle, it's a core part of her worldview, which could explain why she ultimately transitioned.

Based nonna. Honestly I find the tumblr smol sad gay boi to be the most unbearable shit in media written for women. It doesn't annoy me as much as lesbians written by men because I am one but honestly it is so tired and outdated. I wish someone who actually knew about nuance outside of 'gay character sad because x' taught Viv how to write. At this point keep her under supervision everytime she puts pen to paper.

Not trying to derail but the yaoi/bl fandom is infamously misogynistic because a lot of women who read this shit hate themselves, society's expectations of them to perform femininity and the way that women are constantly sexualised. They become fujo faghags to live vicariously through non-existent men who are written like teary eyed women for other women. Actually meeting LGB people irl would probably save a lot of these women/girls from this pitfall. It's like those weebs who've never spoken to an asian woman before and genuinely believe they're like anime girls.

I got some milk about Viv and merry gang of cringelords.

I was at the Hazbin wrap party at the animation studio that did some work on it.

>The gang of them rocked up and literally didn’t say hello to anyone for half an hour. Just came and took selfies with the cut outs of the Hazbin characters then went out in the balcony and talked amongst themselves.


>Viv was really sweet and lovely but I have never seen anyone wear a more mismatched outfit. She spent the entire night non stop taking photos. Spent 50% of her time staring through the phone taking pics or vlogging the group on a digital camera. Stuff like getting the group to dance for the camera and singing really performatively. You could tell they don’t get out much.


>Sam the background lead was obnoxiously aloof and had this deranged “I’m the hottest girl in high school” persona. The irony of all that being she looked dishevelled. Hair was a total mess, makeup was scuffed, she was wearing a shaggy coat that looked like it smelled. She spent the entire night rigor mortis in a weird fucking pose like a barbie doll so the coat could drape off her arms in a particular way. It truly felt like watching a high schooler who thought they were better than everyone parade around in front of a bunch of adults.


>Idk who it was but during the speeches people made, there was one girl in the posse that was so awkward she kept loudly interjecting to yell stuff. Half the audience was visibly cringing and laughing at her the further along it got. Like Viv she also seemed like a sweetheart but just had absolutely zero social skills.

I don't think it's about the generation. The stuff they did previously like Toy Story and Monsters Inc. still hold up. Even tablet children can watch those.

There is also the capitalism aspect. The old pixar was more about experimentation and weird ideas.

All the talk of millennial writing has me thinking when we're going to see videos talking about gen z writing, because I wonder what the recurring things will be when they enter the industry and start pitching their stories. Like millennials have the quirky one liners (or is that gen x?) and the "I hate my parents"/"I was bullied for being x race" plotlines, what's going to be the equivalent that will be coming from the older crop of gen z?

There's a difference between writing about gay people and using them as dolls to make yourself happy. A fujo only thinks of their own happiness when writing because their primary interest in gay people is through fandom shipping. That's why fujos hate women who get in the way of their ship (ie: their happiness playing with their dolls)

It's easy to tell the difference between the two if you've spent any time in a fujo invested fandom.

Right now younger teen zoomers are going through the RANDOM1!1! humor stage millennials also had at their age. They follow Tate, millennials followed the antiSJW YouTubers. They sprinkle in gender and gay shit, millennials sprinkled in girlboss and gay shit. So I'd say in a few years zoomer humor is gonna be the exact same as millennial humor now (mostly depression jokes), I've even seen a few GenZ creators and my GenZ uni classmates in their 20s already morph into it.

The way the scenes are framed seems to suggest that Octavia is being portrayed as unreasonable for being angry at Stolas for lying to her and also cheating on his wife.

You're not wrong, but I find it interesting how wish fulfillment-driven stories aren't criticized nearly as much when they're authored/drawn by men. Yet people lose their shit and suddenly care about ~artistry~ the second a woman does the same thing (Twilight is a good example of this.) I'm not saying women should be immune to criticism for wish fulfillment, but at least hold men and women to the same damn standard.
Obviously major projects with commercial intent and lots of people involved (like Viv's shows) are fair game to criticize for wish-fulfillment among other shitty writing choices, but anons scream at (non-TiF) women for even just enjoying yaoishit or drawing it for themselves. How is that an issue of "writing quality?" It sounds to me like puritanical tut-tutting at women for having a fetish. Like… why. I want to know the actual reason why anons have so much vitriol for what amounts to bunch of female geeks just being kind of cringe. It's clearly something more deep-seated than "muh writing" or concern-trolling about how if someone looks at yaoi she'll immediately saw her tits off.

Wasn’t it said that the actual professional writers pretty much had to scrap the whole plot of what viz planned because she was too focused on retarded gay ships and less focused on the actual setting and characters of the story? Wouldnt surprise me if she’s purposely writing helluva boss as a way to vent how she couldn’t write hazbin the way she wanted so she’s throwing all the ships and misogyny into that series instead

Even John K knew better than to completely indulge in his fantasies and desires, and would concede to the studio's vision for certain aspects of his work. The problem with Vivziepop is that she's essentially writing fan fiction of her own show, without the fun adventures that originally drew people in and made them invested in it.

You speak truths, anon. Every other show is 80% made to appease the writers fetishes and desire to have females sexualized and objectified left and right, to the point it’s disruptive and detracts from the watching experience. I can live with one woman squeeing about her yaoi OCs.

The writing does feel very fan-fic-y, but I don't think it's exclusively because of the gay fanservice. The over-the-top teenage edgelord humor and dated DeviantArt-scene-furry-OC vibe of many of the designs also contribute to the overall fanart-esque vibe. Viv's art style and humor hasn't changed since she was a literal teenager on DeviantArt over a decade ago, and I think it makes the show feel weirdly anachronistic. I understand some people like that about it because of nostalgia, but for me, it's just distracting. Fwiw not all of the designs are dated; the devils with striped horns are cool, but the more animal-like characters are so obtrusive visually, they don't look like professional designs at all, they look like furry OCs. Imo all of the wage-slave demons should've been permutations of the base concept of red-body-black-and-white horns, with highly varied outfits and body types to distinguish them visually. No tacky furries.

Pretty sure that’s just speculation/wishful thinking. I would be shocked if someone at A24 wasn’t trying to rein her in somewhat but they also probably realize that her uwu gay shipping shit is a huge part of the appeal to the online fan base that made them realize the show was worth picking up in the first place. Hopefully they find a balance, I think it has potential once they tighten the plot a little

It's a bit strange that you're bringing up misogyny when we're criticizing Vivziepop. Cause the most frequent complaint in this thread is how the female characters are undeveloped. Hell It would be one thing if they were just one-dimensional, but the amount of times the main cast uses derogatory terms about women is kinda upsetting, and it's okay to focus on a main gay male relationship, but it's not okay to ignore blatant misogyny. It's especially wrong to brush it off as a non-issue compared to insults against the gay males.
picrel is her admitting she sacrificed any potential character development of Millie by prioritizing Biltzo and Stolas

This is my problem with Vivzie. If you're into silly gay ships (I understand, sometimes I am too) and you want to make your show where you can ship your gay boys all you want then go ahead. Fill every episode with fanservice, who cares. But if the only thing you care about is your gay ship then don't bring in women character just to shit on them every time you have the chance. You don't have to have the token woman that's badly written and called all sorts of slurs so she can't steal the spotlight from your favourite gay ship, you can just make your entire cast male and have fun shipping them all a la Touhou without all the misogyny. I feel like she wants to go full tumblr fujo but she's obligated to have some female characters to appeal to normies or males, idk what the fuck she's thinking.

i don't care about the yaoibait but i do find it fascinating how weirdly stunted and childlike vivziepop's work is. there's having roots in 2005 deviantart oc culture and then there's being mentally stuck there. even the way the shows use profanity and joke about sex is not how a grown adult would do either of these things, but it's like vivenne medrano is a grown woman with the brain of a 13-year-old who can only make "adult content" from the perspective of the child she was when she felt naughty and cool for watching stuff with fuckwords in it.

Sorry if it seemed like I was defending the show's poor female representation– I wasn't. To go back to the Twilight comparison, Stephanie Meyer was terrible at writing women, and the book has a lot of her misogynistic Mormon nonsense baked in. But two things can be true at the same time: a piece of art can reflect a female artist's misogynistic beliefs, but misogyny can also be a major motivator for critics, particularly male ones.
I was speaking more generally an this phenomenon, and I clarified several times that it wasn't about Viv specifically. She definitely has an issue with writing female characters poorly, which is a shame because I think some of the initial concepts for the characters had potential. It's very easy to imagine a character like Charlie being really fun when written by someone with actual skill.
I think the OTT fanservice of HB really screws up the tone. The theme park episode gave me whiplash, because one second we're soberly dealing with serious issues about family and marriage, and the next we're Superjail in hell. They're trying to do the Rick and Morty thing of weaving in character drama, but it wasn't exactly well executed there, either, and R&M's writers are way more talented than Viv and Brandon. Bojack horseman pulled that off pretty well, but that's because it was the focus of the show, and the comedy was very secondary (and also typically relegated to characters other than Bojack). Plus the show built to that sort of thing; it revealed Bojack's history slowly. HB has no restraint and just heaped a bunch of sad backstory for a character we barely know on us.

I'm fatigued by the endless fujo discourse, too, but you're being ridiculous. No one said or even implied that they're mad at the show for making their husbandos gay, wtf. The common thread so far seems to be that it's not integrated into the story or tone very well, and thus feels very fanservice-y and indulgent. People will probably disagree with this, but the problem isn't the gay stuff itself, it's the execution of it. On paper, I can totally see the idea of "guy sleeping with obsessive dude who has a crush on him so he can take advantage of his powers" working, especially if it was played off as a running gag instead of a serious plot point. But Viv and friends just don't have the writing chops or restraint to pull it off.

I really don't know why people keep bringing this up and think that a female creator owes them female-focused stories or else they're gender traitors or handmaidens or fujocoomers or whatever. Focusing on male characters isn't synonymous to having badly written female characters, it's just a different mindset. She creates works about characters that are appealing to women and mostly women only, they just aren't explicitly female. Hazbin wasn't a calculated effort to bring in viewers who want female characters and it never branded itself as such so it's a weirdly bitter point to even bring up when the supposedly badly written female characters even barely exist. I wouldn't want a character like Angel Dust (since he's the one the thread seems to constantly seethe over) to be one, it would be a tired, male-gazey trope to see a woman be coomerized and sexualized like he is.

>>1835762

Thus far, pretty much every female character have been insulted in the cruelest and most misogynistic manner possible, except for Millie, Octavia, and Loona. This is often presented in a way that is intended to be "funny", even when it involves insulting and offensive remarks towards young girls and mothers. Meanwhile, any insults directed towards the main characters are framed as unacceptable and deserving of punishment or hate.

I mean, yeah. Whore, cunt and bitch are words that are used a lot. Millie doesn't get called that because she's basically Moxxie's doormat so she's fine. Loona is Blitzo's dog/daughter and Octavia is Stolas's daughter but she often gets framed as an emotional angry teenager because she has issues with accepting her gay cheating dad. In Hazbin there's the "don't get your taco in a twist" line from favourite gay boy Angel Dust to Vaggie, and female angels according to Vivzie were supposed to serve Adam and they all have names that have to do with "vagina" or "pussy" iirc.

The disproportionate usage of misogynist language is a fair critique, but I think it's more about the need to be edgy and most English language insults being centered around bitch/whore/pussy/cunt etc in general than a conscious decision. The stories do have a lot of female characters though and they're not badly written or offensive IMO, just pushed aside. If anything I feel like they're played too safe and nice which makes them milquetoast compared to the male characters that are allowed to go crazy and be problematic and that's why they seem "badly written" to people.

This is simply untrue. Fuck, fuckface, dick, dickhead, motherfucker, dumbass, asshole, faggot, tranny, there are A LOT of insults available. Instead they often use cunt/bitch/whore, specifically with women too. They even make them up and they're sex-specific like "titty haver", seriously? How can you not see how misogynistic they are?

>the stories do have a lot of female characters though and they're not badly written or offensive IMO, just pushed aside.

How are they well-written? You say they're deep but we don't see them do shit, so at this point all this perceives depth is just headcanon. The writers need to actually show us the female characters' depth instead of going "yeah she's super strong!" or "she's depressed and has a tough sad past" on some Twitter post or narrated in the span of one minute during an episode that's otherwise filled with male character development. Hell even the episode featuring Millie's family that takes place in Millie's hometown is focused around fucking Moxxie, Striker and Stolas. There were so little Millie scenes and she had to share one with the tim brother, how insulting is that?

I don't think Vivziepop is trying to create a 1:1 of bible lore with her badly written fiction or anything, but this is so fucking stupid to anyone with even a passing understanding of christianity. Sure, Adam is a biblical entity a lot of people are familiar with, but he never had anything to do with angels. There is an actual cited leader of the armies of heaven, who is the archangel Michael, a sexless spirit, and in the catholic tradition specifically, the high general of Michael and the angelic armies is actually the Virgin Mary.

Instead of drawing on any of that for an ounce of original inspiration, she used her ignorance as an opportunity to make another source of in-show misogyny for no good creative reason. Amazing.

I recently rewatched some old episodes from Season 1, and I must say that they are vastly better when the show didn't take itself seriously and focused on the comedy and actual plot , which made it more enjoyable. However, one thing that remained consistent across seasons 1 and 2, both the good and bad episodes, most stories gradually progress from point A to point B to point C, but HB often abruptly shifts from point A to point C sometimes in 15 seconds. It's really jarring, and I think Vivzie needs to take a writing class or something, as rewatching some episodes becomes tedious. Also, I have to admit I'm not a fan of the voice direction for some of the characters. Despite the fact that the show has talented actors, but are given accents they can't perform or made to say things that don't match their voices. Fucking, Funimation did better job voice directing.

this plushie makes me imagine some 2 year old who's obsessed with the movie and watches it over and over again and then gets that creepy ass stuffed 40 year old and names it baba or something and carries it everywhere until it's filthy and their parents are like don't you think baba needs a bath honey? maybe baba would like to go visit all the other toys at goodwill? and the kid starts screeching and biting with their sharp as fuck toddler teeth. kek.

if they where made for a chinese market they wouldnt had cast a black actor to play Ariel. Chinese netizens unsurprisingly where furious about it and started adding filters to the trailer to make her lighter. Anyone who has any basic understanding of how chinese netizens operates(which Disney does because any big company has a whole team whose sole purpose is to tell them what appeals to foreign markets) would have predicted this reaction. The reboots are made for manchildren and womenchildren who consooms anything Disney and normies who will watch it for nostalgia's sake

Rebeltaxi launched his trailer for his indie webtoon and uh, yeah. I honestly don't really find the premise interesting but I dunno if it's because I'm not interested in the concept or if it's the fact that I just don't find his art style that appealing.

I know that Pan has been wanting to get his series off the ground for years now and after his trainwreck pitch to adult swim that didn't go well, he seems to be going about it working around it. I know that a lot of people here find Pan to be a creep but I personally don't have any hate for him. At the most I find him cringe but ultimately harmless. Anyway while the trailer didn't really grab my interest at all, I give Pan some credit for sticking to his dream.

Honestly he really needs to just let it go and maybe salvage aspects from it for future projects. It's probably daunting trying to start from scratch but it's so painful seeing artists get stuck on one project out of this stubbornness to let something fail. This is all based on a webcomic that he started years ago when he was young and on tumblr. I get that he really cares about it, but creatively, things weren't meant to be. It looks like it would be a nightmare to animate and is really kinda a western Jojo ripoff.

Also he really didn't think through his public perception when putting things in his Youtube videos. Especially in a climate where saying one thing out of line can get you removed from a production. It seems really naive of him to say offputting things on his public Youtube channel, and expecting to break into an industry of very sensitive people. I think he has skill and like his 90s/2000s edgy aesthetic, but his attitude hasn't changed since he was 18 in it really shows.

So, I read the first two and last two chapters of Pan's comic, and it's not very good. The art would be fine if It was just illustrations, but as actual characters, the characters move like they're underwater(awkward and slow). Additionally, it's hard to differentiate between IRLs and the organics(the humans are multi-colored in this world), and the story doesn't have a strong foundation for a good plot.

I just feel bad for him, his dream animated show concept is very "10th grade creative writing prompt" and it just doesn't have much appeal because it's all over the place. He's self deprecating and embarrassing to watch as a YouTube reviewer too. Maybe if Pan was a better artistic craftsman he could pull Loki IRL off but his humor and art style is just too underbaked. Helluva and Hazbin look much more polished and from a specific auteur.

IMO Pan could break into the industry proper but would probably be dropped just like Roiland because he's a coomer with no raw talent.

To be fair I think it is overstated even in China itself because of the tabloids. A lot of people don't know that China has the same "anti-woke" click-bait tabloids and the racism is reported as if it's general opinion and not just Chinese TMZ. Virtually all the western movies that do well in China are big cgi action movies and Spider-verse is doing well. The lesson for the studios is probably to go bigger with the bright colors, explosions and spectacle.

I saw discussions of this online and people kept saying this guy made "4 minutes of softcore porn!!!" And it was extremely misogynistic and a self-insert etc, which lead to him deleting the channel.
But the clip is like maybe 2 minutes of cartoon nudity, and is very Superjail + sex comedy. The generic guy is literally slipping around a random government facility naked while of government agents (?) shower naked and try to help him while falling on his dick, and a buff woman gives him naked CPR. It's too sexual with all the blushing to be OTT like Superjail but I can definitely see the Warden slipping around naked in an endless shower scene full of naked women and men who somehow are all having sex with him accidentally.

I think the reason she's upset is that most of the criticism comes from people who actually enjoyed the show and praised the first season, but are critical of the writing of the second season and she can't ,orally fault any of her detractors, accusing them of being homophobic Christians.

Stella is possibly the worst handled female character I've ever seen, she's just an evil "bitch" that the audience is meant to hate, she's not a fun evil villain either, she's just abusive and stupid. And with the introduction of Andrelphaus, Stella now becomes the secondary to push her brother as the bigger villain. So there can't be a woman as the main adversary of the cast, because she also only does this for a man, not herself. I wouldn't mind if she had been petty for petty's sake. But now she's doing it because a man told her to?

I suspect doctors don't know what to do because she fucked her health up with HRT and possibly refuses to treat her or she refuses to get treatment herself (just a speculation of mine based on multiple stories of these people making strange, "gender affirming" or whatever, demands for their trans status).
I find it suspicious that she tries to push a contradictory narrative, where some tweets state that she has been denied care altogether, but then literally the next tweet is about being experimented on (picrel)

Sage for a Clone High sperg
I think it doesn't understand the humor of the original and it's jarring to watch. A lot of the humor is dated (the pumpkin spice/duckface/kylie jenner lips episode is something you'd have seen in like 2016) or simply lul so random. It's much more fast paced and on the nose which on one hand seems to be pandering to tiktok zoomers but on the other they routinely poke fun at them in a out of touch 'parenty' way (like the joke about zoomers not knowing what books are). I found the pop culture montage from the first episode cringe. Of course the original did have its weak moments like that too but the parts that were actually good balanced it out. The reboot has more misses than hits and the new characters are bad in every way. The idea of Frida replacing Cleo in a sort of generational gap way where the most popular at school isn't the hot Stacy but a quirky cool girl is a nice concept though and I wish the 'lul it's not the 2000s anymore!' aspect relied more on things like that instead of telling us directly that the x genre of music is not cool anymore or whatever. They'd still need to redesign the new characters though, aside from being ugly, they don't even look like they're from the same show. Picrel still sucks but it's so much better than what we got.

This literally happened in Weimar Germany, where most people only think of the cabaret and nightlife culture. However, the state was extremely corrupt, with widespread poverty and issues such as drug addiction, brothels with children, and bizarre sex cults. The Nazis capitalized on this situation, presenting themselves as the solution to the perceived 'degeneracy.' While I am not defending Nazi takeovers, it is worth noting that an overly liberal society will produce reaction against it, there's only so much people will take.(derailing)

Sperging more about the designs, but the new designs are a good lesson in color design and how it can make the show more cohesive.

All of the original designs have very minimalist color design - skin color, black and/or white, one or two neutrals like brown or very desaturated blues and greens, and one saturated focus color.
The new designs have zero neutral colors outside of the skin tones, and 5-7 equally saturated, bright "focus" colors. If they replaced even half of the random ass colors with neutrals it'd look better, why the hell did they go so crazy with it?

The original writing was spectacularly done and something that I feel more rooted in the original staff’s talent as opposed to just the era. The early 2000’s were a notoriously awful time for comedy and the fact that Clone High still held up is very much an anomaly. The new writing feels like every other generic millennial infested writer’s room nowadays. The humor is just so fucking corny and lame. Things were obviously going to change but the execution is still bad. It still has some good moments but it’s more about the VA delivery than the actual jokes. Cleo’s new voice is awful and doesn’t suit her at all. Also I don’t understand millennials thinking that the weird, artsy kids are somehow popular now? I think there’s less outwards cruelty in schools which is good but the most popular TikTok stars still look like the stereotypically pretty girl.

What truly bothers me aren't the stereotypes, the yellow sky, the names, or even the poor Spanish, even if that is a bit triggering. It's actually the responses the cast gave. How can you be proud of your roots if you dismiss Spanish as simply a "conquistador language"? Spanish is a language of both the conquered and colonizers; it came from strife, and the people of Latin America made it their own. They take pride in their regional differences and in speaking a tongue that goes back to ancient Rome. That's why disrespecting the language, which is a key part of many Latin American countries and our culture, is so offensive. The way we speak Spanish is really important. That's why "cookita" became a thing. And I understand that many of the showrunners didn't feel safe appropriating the culture and language as children or teenagers, and that's why, as adults, they may not have the best command of Spanish. But another thing that not only bothers me but others is when people use Spanish for a product like they aren't trying. They just use their heritage for profit with the minimum effort because now it's more cool to be Latino than it was before. So, if you think Spanish is a bad language because it was imposed by the Spanish conquistadors and you can disrespect it as much as you want, why try so hard to use it in English, which is a native American language?

Yeah, I see a lot of resentment being taken out unfortunately. There's a lot of anger in USA latinos commonly speaking over or thinking that they're better than their latam counterparts, and then the LATAM latinos call them detached white gringos living the good life. Endless cycle of screaming at each other. Sperg vent but yeah I'm from latam and some american latinos just seem to hate whatever the fuck we like. There's a big divide on what is or isn't considered good representation for us, that's how you get shows that are "hola! let's go out with mi amigos from mexico!" vs "badass ultra-buff mexican luchadores fighting to the death"

It’s so true, I’m Latin diaspora in a Latino enclave and even that is different from being the only Hispanic person in an all Anglo white city. A lot of diaspora grow up self hating and isolating from their culture as kids, so they lean really hard into it as adults. For those of us who grew up speaking Spanish and having connection to the culture, the stuff they want seems obvious and superficial. I have a lot of empathy for them because growing up the only Latina sounds rough but they don’t realize that just living in the US is a huge privilege and that they have opportunities their counterparts in Latam will never have.

I agree with you the marketing was terrible, and to be honest they should have just told the showrunners and VAs to stfu.

I don't really understand her and other LatAm immigrant kids' persepctive in the US. Spanish is the 2nd most spoken language in the US and there are ethnic communities in big cities everywhere, especially for Mexican immigrants and subsequent generations. They have the opportunity to go better their language very easily if they're insecure. Media for Spanish speakers is easily accessible as compared to other cultures. I don't get why people like her are so whiny. I'm from a small country with MAYBE 30,000 immigrants dispersed throughout the US (and I'm not sure how many of them are 2nd gen or more removed). Finding friends to talk to and media to consume was very hard when we immigrated in the early 2000s.

Why butcher the language? Why make poor decisions for the nickname of a character that will obviously get misinterpreted in at least a latam country?

The show is set in California. You can see the back of the Hollywood sign in the last few seconds of the theme song vid.

This interview with Natasha Kline was just released (don't know when it was recorded) and she said the following:
- She knows Oye Primos is bad Spanish. It's bad because Tater doesn't speak Spanish.
- Natasha speaks Spanish badly. She couldn't "understand what her grandmother, who mostly spoke Spanish, said all the time." But despite that, they were very close.
- The show is supposed to be set in the 90s and she talked about how bad the smog in LA was back then. So I think the yellow filter is supposed to be smog.
- Her dad is from Tennessee, her mom is second gen Mexican, born in America. Her grandmother is from Mexico City. So, technically, she's not jewish.
- She grew up in someplace called Fontana, California. The neighborhood in the show is supposed to be like the neighborhood she grew up in in Fontana.

I don't understand why she didn't just say 'Oye primos is not grammatically correct because Tater barely speaks Spanish' and made it clear the show was set in California not in Mexico. That would have cut a lot of the criticism off at the knees. Instead she made a two paragraph rant about how bad it was to criticize bad Spanish and then privated everything.

There are 4 spanish tv channels in the US even. They also have telenovas. I never watched them cause I don't speak Spanish, and since neither does Natalie, I guess she hasn't either.

So is not a language that came from the evil roots of Latin to delete indigenous languages like they want to show.
Sage for off-topic but this is true of pretty much every language. Why do English speakers eat beef, poultry, and mutton (words with Latin roots) but those foods come from cows, chickens and sheep (Germanic roots)? Because modern English was born when the French-speaking Normans conquered the Old English-speaking Anglo-Saxons, and as the feudal overlords they were the ones who got to eat the meat while the peasants starved. In South Asia, "Urdu" is a Turkic loanword that literally means "military camp," because it was the polyglot language spoken by ordinary people in the orbit of the Moghul conquerors. Knowing this stuff (about any language) should make people more empathetic for the hardships faced by ordinary people throughout history.

Sage for OT but Urdu's origin has nothing to do with Turkic. Many Pakistanis have perpetuated the myth that Urdu is a blend of Persian, Arabic, and Turkish. However, this is not the case. Pretty much all evidence suggests that Urdu's origin can be traced back to central India. It has Persian and Arabic loan words, but these loan-words are found in literally every ethnic language spoken by South Asian Muslims (and some non-Muslims), especially Persian loan-words, which has been the lingua franca of much of Northern India for well over a thousand years. Additionally, the Mughal court language and that of most Islamic Kingdoms was also Persian

This whole drama really highlights how people born in America are ultimately just Americans, no matter what your ethnicity is. Sure, you may speak another language, and grow up eating different foods, and travel to your home country during summer break, but the culture you absorb, the media you consume, the people you befriend here in the States influence you the most. You do not share the culture of your ancestors as a 1st gen. It's a unique experience that would lend itself to great stories. But you have to be honest about your identity. There's a sort of arrogance amongst people like this artist, they want to be a representative of a culture they don't know anything about. She's an American, not a Mexican.

This is what I don’t really understand about these movies and cartoons all made based on the childhood of a random literal who artist that decided that they’re so interesting, that they all must tell the world about how mom wouldn’t let her go to a concert or how dad wasn’t around.
Like, yeah, kids relate to those things, but is it really that hard to write the wacky stories of a wacky alligator that goes to school with some kids and has to pretend to be a human? Or the story of a space captain that’s 10 years old and travels the universe in order to find the best cereal that has ever existed?

There have been cartoons about growing up as a child in a certain environment, Hey Arnold is a great example.

The problem with these Millennial-written family drama stories is that they come across as self-pitying and whiny.

It doesn’t help that we generally have an idea of where these people are coming from and we saw how this mentality came to be.

I feel like I’m in the minority because this whole backlash seems really stupid to me. The ‘Spanish is a colonizer’ language bit is dumb but I’m tired of hearing cartoon autists nitpick this series to death. Also the sperging about creators self inserting is so brain dead, writers have been making their self insert power fantasies since the beginning of time. Only animation dorks seem to have a problem with this though but that’s because they’re too obsessed with children’s shows to read anything mildly stimulating. I love cartoons too but this drama has been the most grating thing in the community in awhile.

The difference is there's a much smaller amount of cartoons to choose from compared to most other media. So when you find a bad book with a cool premise, you can usually find another book with a similar premise that's written better and forget about the bad one. With cartoons, you rarely get that so people tend to fixate on the one cartoon with a neat premise but bad writing.

I get what you mean. A lot of the controversy around this show seems really performative.
>Terremoto heights
This feels like such a performative thing to be offended by. Yeah, it't technically a bit politically incorrect (in the literal sense) but it's not that offensive to be so angry about.
>Cuquita
Even the people posturing being offended about it admit that it doesn't mean vagina in every single hispanic country.
>Reeee racist caricature
Every time there's an ugly show or drawing made for diversity point and people accuse it of being "a racist caricature" it always feels so silly and sjw tier logic to me. Some styles are just ugly on purpose, I don't see people whining about Clarence or the Thornberries being racist white people caricatures it's also funny how the concept of "internalized racism/homophobia/misoginy" only starts existing when it's convenient for bandwagoning against mediocre cartoons or comics made by "minorities" kek, not talking about the nonnas here but about e bandwagons in general.
>shithole countries
If you have any long term memory, it's obvious the shithole country thing is an ironic comment on trumps words. It was weird to not add "" around it, but people are misinterpreting it on purpose so they can be offended.

Some of the controversy is also ironic because it feels like it's basically people from Latin America being offended by a show for pandering to USA latins because… it doesn't represent them. I get that animation is almost monopolized by the US and Japan, so it can be annoying to grow up constantly seeing american perspectives thrown at you, but it's not US americans fault other countries don't make enough cartoons about themselves.
The show pitch being so focused on race sounds woke, but I don't doubt a bunch of it is her throwing random pandering stuff at the wall to please whatever disconnected suits might be reading it so they'd pick up her show.

A lot of the issues people point in this show to me feel like they should have been the responsibility of someone doing quality control. The earthquake thing is more about political correctness and industry standard than being actually offensive, and It makes sense the creator herself could be unaware of cuquita being slang in some hispanic countries, but disney being an international conglomerate definitely should have had someone from the South America branch tell them to change it.
The voice actress being allowed to run around posting weird sjw tier defenses also points to a very weird lack of disney control.

>>1849498
Agree with this. I think it looks kinda ugly, probably mediocre, and the lack of company PR control makes me think even disney doesn't care about the show, but it's really innocuous. Your interpretation of her saying oye primos is something I tought too, and it would be an interesting take on it.

Yes but also there's been weird twitter arguments between latinos and diaspora latinos/chicanos (?) about what is and isn't latino for some time already. The whole "mario is making fun of mexicans because of the clothes", the weird speedy gonzalez thing, the last encanto argument, gentrification problems in mexico, the netflix post that got shat on for presenting a bunch of gringos and going "yasssss latinx repppp!!11!!"
And now Disney shitty marketing to grab as many wokepoint as possible instead of ensuring that the show got properly marketed as "representation for latinos born/living the usa"
>even disney doesn't care about the show
100%
I also think the main problem it's that people in LatAm don't have a full concept of diaspora or just don't get that anything referring to "latinos" in the USA isn't really about us, wich is why they also use a different definition for what a "latino" is

I get that beanmouth is cancer but there's nothing wrong with characters being "ugly". The designs on the right could definitely be improved, but they don't need to be perfect waifus for pedo moids either.

Both sides in this retarded drama are full of clowns.

It's also funny seeing Mexicans cry that they should make a show about obese pink American children going through school shootings because Mexico's obesity rate is high as fuck and they have the highest percentage of obese children in the world.

my argument isn't about who to blame. what i'm saying is that you shouldn't shit on every pretty female character or prevent yourself from liking a pretty female character because some moid will coom from it. i'm not going to place effort into worrying about what moids make/consoom because i have no real control over that and otherwise my worries would never end. because again, moids will coom over anything, even things that don't even have a sex.

all i'm saying is that you shouldn't label a pretty female character as nothing but coombait when you don't even know anything about the character and are just making that judgment purely on looks and just because she's pretty. do coombait only characters exist? absolutely. but not every pretty female character is just coombait.

Did everyone already forget bronies? You don't need attractive looking female characters to attract them, just an appealing enough art style.
As a kid I was pretty picky with art styles in my shows, I could accept "ugly" looking ones occasionally but I preferred ones with cute looking girls because I enjoyed projecting myself on them and I loved seeing their cute outfits.

Agreed, it's why kid me latched hard onto Sailor Moon, Yugioh and the other few Japanese shows here, before I even knew what on earth anime was.

Well, in the late 90s and 2000s, there were plenty of Western cartoons with appealing art styles. As a kid, I didn't even see a distinction between anime and western cartoons. However, it was around the early 2010s when things changed. The popularity (and let's be honest, low budget) of shows like Adventure Time and later, Steven Universe, changed the entire direction of Western cartoons. Suddenly, we had shows that looked like they crap, but you couldn't complain because it was "muh style". They started inserting their pett, personal issues on everything, and the worst aspect IMO was the focus on lore, which required the characters to act like idiots and never ask question anything, so a backstory that could be explained in one conversation dragged on for 5 seasons.

Can we have a discussion about the issues of Translation and an ever increasing trend of political insertion by a handful of California liberals within the industry? Before delving into this issue, it is essential to understand the approach taken by older dubs such as 4Kids, these translations had their flaws, but their purpose was to localize the content and provide a cultural equivalent for a very young western audience. Though they may have faltered at times, their reasoning was understandable. On the other hand, modern translations seem to be nothing more than a means for untalented writers to impose their political views on imported Japanese media.
I think the best example of political interference by translators would be Viz Media intentionally changing the gender of a cross-dressing male character into a TIM and making a female character who uses an archaic male pronoun for samurai as a TIF.

Isn't Big City Greens the actual best performing show on Disney? I think SoL has appeal to kids (especially the younger ones) because it's just funny characters doing funny high jinks and you can watch any episode in any order and you get the funny random high jinks you want.
I'm more confused by the trend of cartoons starting off pretending to be an episodic random show for at least an entire season before they reveal they actually wanted to be story focused all along except they're still triying to be kinda episodic (bonus points if they get cancelled in the last season so they need to speed run a whole thesis worth of lore and character arcs for the conclusion). I know it's probably the suits forcing the episodic format, but I think as a kid I would be annoyed because I wouldn't know if I could watch the show randomly or not, and if I did like the story I would feel frustrated by episodes that are supposed to be set during an important event but where the characters are just goofing around and ignoring the alien bomb that's going to explode the world and they're supposed to be stopping.

Her excuse is that she didn't want to have a double cast of speaking VAs and singing VAs considering Hazbin will be a musical show. The real reason is she is the worst kind of theater kid and casting Broadway stars was always the goal. The pilot VAs were just a stepping stone to achieving the level of fame needed to a company like A24 that could afford to hire them.

This is what Angel Dust's VA said. From what I understand if Viv had hired him for the show he could've joined the union anyways so it doesn't seem like that was exactly why everyone was recast.

So far there's only three confirmed VAs, Charlie's (Erika Henningsen) and Amir Talai who seems to be voicing either Angel or Alastor. Leslie Kritzer is also confirmed, will likely be Rosie. A few other names floating around but everyone named so far is Broadway.

I really think this could be it's own thread, nonnie. Anime is just not western animation and even 4kids dubs do not count as western animation, though. It could be posted in the anime thread in /m/, but talking about specifically bad politicized translations or the troonification of manga/anime by the recent influx of TIM "translators" could warrant it's own thread.

Someone in the industry actually explained this. Higher ups want you to play it very safe with the early parts of a series, so the creators go in with very simple premises. If it's successful, they begin to give the creators more slack and they're allowed to have more creative freedom.

This isn't an Anime discussion though, this is translation discussion, the same VA's who voice english dub of anime characters also do VA work in western cartoons, not to mention the big fact that these translators live in America and so I don't see the point of making a separate thread cause these people have massive overlap with the comicbook industry and animation projects.

Make a translation/translation critique thread then? This is specifically like a cartoon thread and those in western cartoons. Not everyone who’s in western animation or comics has anything to do with anime and a lot don’t even watch it/like it. Almost none of these Californianites even know Japanese, much less a second language. Translation work in manga and video games is also totally different.

Just because there’s overlap doesn’t mean it’s the same thing. Yes, voice actors get work wherever they can. Entertainment industries tend to be centralized in California, Texas, and only a few other states, but translation and what’s wrong with Japanese is it’s own beast. Just make a new thread in /m/.

The uglification of cartoons is not a new thing, but yeah, it's more specifically American. That's why I've always hated Cartoon Network for the ugly shit they've been putting out. From there it has started infecting other networks/animation companies. There is something mentally wrong with Americans with their pushing disgusting caricatures into kids' cartoons. Something this ugly should be forbidden from being targeted at minors. It's the very definition of 'triggering'.

I wonder whether the crap 'Western' animation we often see these days is not a result of that - the artists being exposed to butt-ugly styles when they were growing up? As an inference that floats around the Internet has it, anime styles became more and more absurd and divorced from reality as new otaku animators entered the industry and started to draw in the style they were exposed to as children/teens. The outputs of that vicious cycle looked more absurd and alien with each iteration. The same phenomenon might be occurring in 'Western' animation as well.(sage your shit)

Not really. The young showrunners of today were exposed to ugly Rugrats and Ren and Stimpy as much as they were beautiful Sailor Moon and Batman the Animated Series. The "bean mouth style" is actually the streamlined animation-friendly version of Rebecca Sugar's personal style, and for some reason it became the norm to work from.

Adventure Time, Flapjack, Chowder, and Regular Show all had wildly different art styles. None of them caught on as the standard.

That's pretty shit. While I do know that a lot changes between a show's pilot and series, where things can be kept consistent is best. For example, Adventure Time's pilot featured bpth Finn and Jake. Imagine if by the series start we changed their names, designs and VAs after developing a fandom. It doesn't matter what media you're into, diehard fans hate different actors playing their beloved character because the actor is the character.

Are you mentally retarded? People outside the US make a stink when woke artists create americanized ethnic shit because the entire moral high ground of these cartoons is their claim of representing and including voices and experiences other than those of north americans. What bothers us is the hypocrisy, if these artists owned up to the fact that their woke bullshit is pure american colonialism and that they are making no effort to include foreigners, and straight up said "sorry but it's not US americans fault other countries don't make enough cartoons about themselves!", everyone would shut up.

The entire world has been consooming north american media for like a hundred years now and (other than academic pseuds) never complained about the fact that it uwu centered american experiences. Nobody complains about misrepresentation in anime either, because anime makes no pretense of inclusion.

You're right, but jsyk they did have to recast Finn after the pilot, because it took several years to get greenlit and the actor's voice changed. So the guy who played Finn in the pilot is the older brother of the kid who played him in the actual show.

This show didn't claim that, tough? It's about 3rd or 4th generation US hispanics living in California. They're not supposed to be a "non north american" perspective, the diversity points they get is for being non-white and having a cultural identity crisis or whatever (specifically because they are not "non-north american").
What you're talking about would apply for something like Coco, Encanto, or Victor and Valentino that is actually supposed to be set in Latin America. I have seen people talk about those show in a kinda "muh representation" angle, which is pretty darned weird and white saviour complex as they'd call it, but there's a difference between "representing" a diaspora community from within your own country and "representing" an actual different country which they feel the need to do because the US takes personal offense at the idea of other countries also having entertainment industries that can make their own content I guess

It's all self indulgence PR that is used to shield stories from criticism. Primos is really REALLY (really u gaiz!) based on her real life experiences and can't be critiqued because she really did have those experiences and it's really really reallllll. If it wasn't real then people could push for choices like making a character trans or making the family rich, but because it's based on her REAL life then it's shielded from criticism (like she was an unfortunate looking little girl who barely spoke Spanish so the main character has to be ugly and use bad grammar!)


Similar to the Pixar Elemental PR story that "it's based on my REAL LIFE, I'm actually making an allegory ABOUT MY PERSONAL EXPERIENCE." But the story sucks and the elements living together in a city is a crappy premise, so it doesn't stop people from hating on bad art.(sage your shit)

>literally only one of those characters is coombait and that's the pink one top right
The top middle one is obvious waifubait.
I also wanna point out that whoever made the pic is an absolute retard because the El Chavo girl (Paty) is the designated pretty girl that all the boys are attracted to. Like that's her whole point, of course she's going to be pretty. For copyright reasons, La Chilindrina couldn't be included in that show, but if she was, she would've had a much bigger role than her.
The pic just has an extreme amount of nitpicking, and this nitpicking is very suspicious and looks like a coomer moid did it (also there are, in fact, pretty girls in the cast of Oye Primos). It's even more telling that they chose Paty over La Popis, the other girl in El Chavo Animado, probably because she's not pretty enough kek. And again, it's reinforcing the idea that cartoon girls aren't allowed to be ugly for some reason, while male characters are. There's no reason to get so fucking upset over ugly girls being portrayed in a positive or neutral way in media, unless you're a. a pedocoomer, or b. it triggers your own body dysmorphia. It's not even that bad, just the typical beanmouth shit. Retarded-ass drama blown out of proportion.

>>1850599
>Something this ugly should be forbidden from being targeted at minors. It's the very definition of 'triggering'.
Most people who grew up with El Chavo del 8 (the original live action one) love this character despite her being ugly by design. It's not going to traumatize kids to see a mildly ugly character on-screen. Were kids traumatized by the Rugrats being ugly? Were kids traumatized by Ed Edd n Eddy? Were girls traumatized by Helga in Hey Arnold? Fuck off, stop being a fucking baby lmao.

Nta but when I say Primos is ugly, what I really mean to say is that it's simultaneously bland, generic, and unappealing. There are shows like there with kind of "gross" art styles (EEnE, Rugrats) but those styles were very distinctive and interesting in their own right. You're not going to mistake Klasky Csupo for anything else, and even if you don't like the style itself, you have to respect that it was trying to do its own thing instead of playing it safe. Beanmouth is like if mediocrity spread like a cancer. It's cheap, broadly appealing, and easy to make merchandise of, so a bunch of studios keep retooling it for their own IPs and/or hiring artists who work in that style. It's classic corporate studio nonsense, where everything starts to look the same because suits are terrified of taking risks.

I'd honestly take a show that was intentionally ugly in a novel way over more generic beanmouth shit. That's why I respect that Unicorn Warriors show or whatever it's called. You might not like the style, but it least it doesn't look like everything else. I'd even say the same for Viv's crap– it's written terribly and I generally dislike the character designs, but at least it's not a slice-of-life, coming-of-age story in beanmouth style.

>Now, speaking to The Hollywood Reporter, Stevenson (a trans-masculine, non-binary author who uses he/him pronouns) has spoken about using the character of Nimona as an outlet for his own battles – and why the upcoming Netflix series will keep hold of the “transness” at the heart of its story.
>“She is a character with a lot of pain and anger at her heart, and that’s why she exists,” he said. “When I made her, I was doing it for my own catharsis.”
>Starring opposite Nimona and the exiled gay knight Lord Boldheart, is the latter’s ex-boyfriend, Lord Ambrosius Goldenloin. The sub-plot of Boldheart’s exile at the hands of a former lover, an event which forces him to question the very society that once championed him, is yet another aspect of the feature that queer viewers of all backgrounds may be able to relate to.
>“It’s about who we really are versus who we think we are, who we are trying to be, and who we say we are,” Stevenson said.
>On the state of the world that Nimona is being released into, Stevenson has said that the story, even to him, has taken on a brand new meaning. While there’s never enough stories about queer acceptance and chosen family, the current global political climate has shown a shift towards a less tolerant way of thinking.
>“I don’t think that any of us expected the state of the world and current events to unfold exactly the way they have,” Stevenson admitted.
>“I think that [Nimona] has always had this transness and gender fluidity at its heart, but there are lines that have new meaning now, even from the first time I heard them recorded.”

Its see a little more complicated then that. basically the early 2010’s saw a shift in media priorities, cartoons with a focus on action and or serialized story telling were slowly purged from networks because they weren’t seen as commercially viable anymore to a new generation of kids more interested in the internet. The very last generation of kids to grow up on scheduled tv had just aged out of the target demographic market, so their viewership didn’t count. Among those shows lost in this media purge, included Symbionic Titan, Teen Titans, Thundercats 2011, Tron Uprising, and DC’s Young Justice. At this point most kids don't really care about Cartoon Network or Nick or Disney proper in the age of streaming and youtube kids. most major cartoon networks just flood their channel’s airtime with the cheapest cartoons they have and call it a day.

The character is supposed to be Beelzebub, Viv portrayed her as a bee-canine for some reason, she's supposed to be the ruler of gluttony. Despite this, she is depicted here with partying and sex, which is similar to how lust was portrayed. Belphegor(the ruler of the sloth ring) is also mentioned, and I'm gonna assume she will also be depicted with partying and sex.

I've never seen someone preemptively cope so hard before a release. telling your audience how to approach something or feel about it when you make nothing but self indulgent shit is so arrogant. "be mindful of expectations" comes across as condescending. all excuses to not have to explain why this episode had such a shit story. she can't even remotely hide that she's incapable of handling any criticism.

and what's funny is that an episode like this could have worked if it had centered around loona and building her character. maybe helping her get over her inferiority complex. maybe have loona start as insecure of the kesha character but warms up to her as a friend. (also the kesha character had no point. it was a character created just to have kesha and her lines with all the cursing were cringe.)

but no, can't make time to give any of the female characters development. viv just had to shoehorn in blitz to tell us again how quirky and uwu gay he is and totally cool guise!!! what an unsufferable character.

Honestly the episode is very inoffensive compared to the agony that is s2. For someone who (I'm assuming) has done no VA work kesha did fine. Seeing the way Luna was in this episode just rubbed in how absolutely flanderised she is in s2. She went from misunderstood awkward teenager to dgaf asshole so quickly.

Partially convinced this episode is incomplete because s2 has no lead in. No 'closure' on Ozzie's or even a reason why they pretended everything was fine. If you're going to have a series finale, it needs to have an emotional end that feels tense. This took what Ozzie's did and finished it on a uni party with a dash of "Blitzo is miserable". This show isn't episodic so it can't try the 'return to status quo' route between finales and openings. Might not be the best episode but it's basically peak fiction compared to the recent Moxxie episode.

Wasn't this episode supposed to explain a lot of the shit that didn't get explained at the start of season 2??

Visually, I enjoyed it, story-wise this was a major let down and I'm losing so much hope.

This character's design is actually a perfect illustration of how Viv almost creates a functional story and character design, but ruins it due to her refusal to let go of her teenage angst and preferences. For example, depicting Beelzebub(who is the Lord of Flies(, as a bee is actually a funny idea, but she ruins it by adding pointless furry shit, to the point it looks like another one of her zoophobia OC's

This character is the most over-designed sparkledog ever put to animation, completely insane how these disparate elements made it into this show.
So let me get this straight:
This is the Queen of Gluttony, "Bee" AKA Beelzebub.
She's a canine of some kind, maybe a red fox, and has four arms, pink transparent wings, hot pink and teal hair bangs with a mini black crown, and has a lava lamp-like honey glob mane and tail - and the honey inside is also pink and teal. She's got exaggerated antenna on top of her huge hot pink striped fox ears and two long single under-eye lashes.
OH and her whole color scheme and body changes when she's in her bee-form, which is much more orange/yellow/red and she gets insect eyes.

The queen-dog-fox-bee-ruler is also singing about cotton candy and giving away cotton candy at her beehive party. What does cotton candy have to do with bees or gluttony? Bees don't make cotton candy, canines are not known for interests in cotton candy, so really the only association is her hair is pink/teal like cotton candy. Mostly people think of cotton candy as junk food, as it has no nutritional value so is that why it's associated for gluttony? Basically "cotton candy is pointless." Just like this show.

No. 1852902

Tbh I don't have that much of a problem with Viv and her work, like sure its a bit self indulgent but at the same time—good for her honestly. She's successful all things considered and the animation for Helluva Boss is decent.
But seriously I am so tired of hearing about blitzo whine and bitch, like omfg we get it hes a sad lonely faggot. I dont care. The most recent episode was the last straw for me. We have a new character introduced and get a mostly Loona centered episode but yet still we have to put up with Blitzo and his self destructive bullshit AGAIN ugh. I'm done with this show. Seriously regretting keeping up with the updates since it first came out. Waste of time.

You’re welcome anon, I thought it was interesting since the rumor I’ve seen is that Kesha just hated the show and wanted her name off of it but the Dr Luke theory makes the most sense. I’m surprised that Vivzie, being a huge Kesha fan didn’t take the lawsuit it into consideration and have a backup plan. I don’t even follow Kesha and I knew about it! The workaround they found works well enough (reminds me of the similar way they handled Michael Jackson on The Simpsons) but I’m surprised it took them this long to decide to go with it.

Petty nitpick but does anyone else laugh at how basic bitch the music in this show is with all the vapid pop music? I'm just really surprised how there doesn't seem to be any rock or metal in this show considering the shows aesthetic. which seems edgy inspired and you'd think there would be some electric guitar involved in it.

On one hand maybe Viv just wanted to subvert that expectation by having music that you wouldn't expect in a show like this and I supposed that's kinda endearing. But on the other hand I'll admit that I'm a rock fan and not all about this club pop music (it's okay in moderation lol).

Anyway it's a small nitpick that isn't that important. It's just something in the back of my head when I'm watching this stuff and music is featured.

The episode itself, waste of Loona's character. It had promise where it was clear that Loona has self-confidence issues and this would've been a good opportunity to have her work on it by trying to be a bit more social and possibly make one or two new friends besides Tex. i mean it feels like she did with those scruffy hell-hounds but still having Blitzo shoehorned in was so obnoxious and took away from what should've been a full Loona episode. Like what is it with Viv and her female characters? Why can't she commit to giving them a proper flesh out? And now it feels too late considering how Loona is being portrayed in season 2.

No. 1852971

Believe me anon, I feel the same. I know a lot of anons have a hate-fist for this show and I can understand but part of me still finds it endearing because of how the show is somewhat DIY, it's kinda inspiring.
But there's no denying that Viv sucks at writing her female characters and it doesn't make any sense. She could be writing into them things she has experienced as a woman but no she has to put all the focus on Blitzo, Stolas, and Moxxie while shoving Millie, Loona, and Octavia to the side and it's so aggravating. How many of Blitzo's "i'm so lonely" spheal do we have to sit through? We get it, can we focus on someone else now for awhile?

It's just a shame because the world of Helluva Boss has creative and fun potential.

That's what I thought too! Like everyone was shitting on Stolas in that one restaurant episode because they find out he's sleeping with an imp (and it's the thing driving the main villain too) and that's apparently shameful, but Beelzebub is dating a hellhound (considered low class since they serve imps too, Vortex is the hellhound of a succubus) but that's fine? And she has imps at her party and worries about them? Kek you can tell Viv just wanted her to be good because she's voiced by her idol. It doesn't make sense that a ruler of hell is actually a genuinely good person because it's been established at the beginning of the show that everyone is a fucking asshole, and it's also a big plot point in Hazbin.
Also everything in this episode felt wasted. Beelzebub got introduced but she spends way too much time singing about cotton candy and then her lines are all shallow and full of curse words. She's just there, she doesn't do anything important in the episode despite being a major character. Loona is also kinda there, she's insecure at the beginning, then she has fun, then it's about fucking Blitzo again. Even Beelzebub is worried about the poor gay boy Blitzo and his "vibe" when she shouldn't give a fuck. And what did this episode clear up? Nothing, we already knew Blitzo was sad, we knew Loona was insecure, we knew she secretly cared for Blitzo. This episode just badly introduced a new character that will most likely not return.

AYRT and actually that makes sense. Since she is a fujo, it's no wonder she can't write female characters for shit because of her lack of IRL experience and because she consumed a lot of yaoi and media that more than likely centered around male characters and that's what fuels her likeness for focusing on male characters while giving the emotional shaft to the female ones. It's sad that she can't strike a balance because if she could, the show would be more solid.

Oh yeah, you're right anon kek.

>all the rings feel the same to me

Except that the fujo stuff is recent.

Gonna set aside the fact that whoever made this video sounds like a combination of Burger King foot lettuce guy and Borat. So is the issue that Kesha was contractually obligated to write music for a certain label, and that contributing music to the cartoon violated that? Why the hell would she write the song, record it, and have it set to animation before realizing she was breaking her contract? Doesn't make sense to me. Also just voicing the character in a non-singing capacity probably would have been fine, so why was all of the voiceover replaced?

I’m confused by this too. IIRC she has to finish out her contract at her label (she was trying to leave it early) and as a result of the Dr Luke legal battle she was forbidden from doing anything outside of the amount of albums she had to fulfill due to her contract so either her team fed Viv’s wrong info, they thought they found a loophole, or they had given her the green light and then something changed shortly after recording. I might be getting some of this wrong, the Dr Luke/Kesha thing is its own rabbit hole. A proper timeline would be helpful here.
>Also just voicing the character in a non-singing capacity probably would have been fine, so why was all of the voiceover replaced?
It wasn’t, she’s still credited for the spoken lines, just not the song
>And why does she want her involvement with the show swept under the rug entirely? Maybe I'm misunderstanding, but this doesn't add up imo.
Maybe because of the timing of the release? Right after she settled the suit out of court? Or to draw attention away from the fact that someone involved fucked up and the fact that she recorded a version of the song in the first place could be damaging to her legally?

She refuses to write well and prefers these 2D character archetypes (both male and female) because they're good for fanfiction and shipping but not for an actual show, and she just doesn't take criticism so she doesn't improve. She also seems to be following trends to attract the average twitterfag/ex Tumblr user hence the shift from trashy YA straight ships to faggot humor and gay boys.

Are we talking about Omocat? Pretty Boy was about a shota and her game Omori was about almost entirely shotas. It's been a long obsession for her.
>moralfag
What the fuck? So it's okay these people are open shotacons and makes shota shirts? If they were men and open lolicons you'd be upset. You have fujo brainrot.

I think it's just a Hollywood/LA thing. I noticed this in western animation circles with men and women. They all have dirt on one another.

Are there any normie cartoon creators at all? I feel like the normies end up working for film animation because they're actually exceptionally skilled (because they don't waste their time on degeneracy) and every other mid creator ends up making cartoons.

I don't know if this has been posted before, but this is from Julia Vickerman's old tumblr. Like all pedophiles, she fixates on a certain age range. Hers seems to be 12 for herself and 14 for boys.
It's probably not shocking someone making a show called "Twelve Forever" might be a little too obsessed with preteens. The whole show is about not wanting to grow up and the main villain is "The Butt Witch" a play on "Butt itch" from growing pubic hair during puberty.

Yeah but you wouldn't hear about them because they're too busy working. You only hear about the weirdo rich kids and their degenerate behavior because they outsourced all of the work they'd be doing to the normies

Is she still working in the animation industry , specifically is she still working on kids shows ?

If she is , I'm a bit annoyed since people have been blacklisted for far less disturbing crap.

I still believe this wasn't her finding the boy attractive in a pedophilic sense but being a mentally ill sperg obsessed with never growing up and people who try to frame it as otherwise are trying to use her as some "see?!?!? women can be pedos too!!!" gotcha and I will die on this hill.

my experience with film animation is there's a ton of really conservative religious men working there who don't have socials

there's normies they are usually just staying quiet/living their life

You’re correct. Adult men/women with families, houses and right leaning politics. I may not agree with them but they’re smart to keep that shit off of social media at least

I mean all of Viv’s designs are bad but this one in particular just makes no damn sense. Like why pick this character out of all of them to be a sparkle dog? Visually it takes way too long to realize she’s even related to bees at all. I’m not surprised she’s shoving more bad furry designs into the show but it just doesn’t make sense. If she wanted to do a callback to her old Kesha animatic why not do a plot involving dogs? I hate this show so much kek

I'm so sick of these obvious animation industry people lurking these threads, going to bat for their creepy friends. Specifically Vivziepop, Vickerman and Noelle. There's plenty of evidence they all have severe issues.
How is congratulating child molesters not pedophile behavior? How is dancing with someone's little boy and saying she wants to date them okay? Why are you supporting someone that uses language like she's having an "underage magical week"? Do you like defending someone that calls children hot? Fuck off.

I never watched Martin mystery as a kid because I thought it was too scary.
Brb I’ll watch it for the hot guy with monsters and weird stuff.

And yeah only the weird kids aka horny boys who see women as wank material only see what they wanna see. Albeit yeah the writers could’ve been disgusting fetish writers themselves with the questionable choices of clothing and what’s going on sometimes.
But it’s complete bullshit guys trying to ruin a girly cartoon by calling it “fetish fuel”. If men get kidnapped multiple times, tied and has a cloth on his mouth “normal” action/spy genre. If it happens to a woman “omg it’s my fetish, that’s hot” ridiculous.
Stop trying to ruin girls cartoon it’s not for you weirdos never was. Maybe those few “fetishes” was like 10% of the shows. Episodes like “Forward to the past” “beauty is skin deep” or “another evil boyfriend” and 90% of the show had no fetish. Males are just being disgusting males.
