Can this show have a fandom resurgence in the same way that Ben 10 did? It was so underrated and kino.

>>148954387 (OP)
Needs a porn AU or a edgy horror AU for that to occur.

>>148954581
Pretty much creepypasta and porn are hella popular rn
I think a "porn" au of this show would be just a harem+shonen where Chiro's team are all monkey girls with more humanoid bodies

Bump

>>148954387 (OP)
I'd like to see that. I wouldn't have hit it off with my now wife if not for this show.

>>148954630
that's porn

>>148954630
Kid me always felt funny whenever she was on screen...

>>148955665
How did that happen?

>>148954387 (OP)
not gonna happen as long as Disney will shove Marvel and Star Wars up your craw

>>148954387 (OP)
I personally don't think so, but not for lack of quality. Ben 10, if I had to hazard a guess, scratches a specific type of autism similarly to how you have autists for shit like Transformers, Mega Man, TTE or even a lot of superhero properties. You have a large, eclectic, and extremely distinguishable, colorful cast of "hero" characters, often with snappy names, as well as a relatively open setting to play with them in, as well as a decently structured central cast, side cast, and usually both singular plotlines and MOTW shenanigans for the central characters to fool around in. To add on, thanks to the initial popularity of Ben 10, there are both multiple long storylines and even multiple iterations of the property, further feeding autism, fan shenanigans, etc. Ben 10 is also more open to shipper shenanigans and chicanery, e.g. Kevin and Gwen having a relationship, Ben being hit on by alien space babes, etc. etc, which is always fertile grounds for autism.

SRMTHFG is a really good show (at least IMO) but it only touches on some and not quite enough of these aspects. The cast is singular, colorful, and has snappy names but it's a much more tight knit show in the sense of cast and especially "herodom" than Ben 10. It's always gonna be Chiro and the Moneky Team, maybe Jinmay, and on occasion a one-episode ally, usually against an array of eclectic MOTWs and adventures, though there is also a singular overarching plot to the show which grows in importance with time. SRMTHFG is also IMO significantly more inventive and weird than Ben 10, it's not exactly more complicated in writing terms or anything as both are children's media but you get a lot more out-there or notably creepy stuff, which lends itself to a different type of fan autism.

TL;DR It's a bit more work to integrate OC shenanigans into SRMTHFG than Ben 10, which isn't a disservice to the show, EEnE is the same way compared to KND, but it also means that fan work is reasonably less common.

>>148954630
>creepypasta are hella popular rn
why? Why do people want to see good characters be in harm's way?

>>148955856
My biggest problems with the show was Chiro being the chosen one and the implications that Skeleton King knew him as a child.

>>148955884
Maybe so, but that's neither here nor there in the meta sense of what I'm talking about, which is how people play with a given piece of media in their minds. Ben 10 is really open to what-ifs and OC on a fundamental level while SRMTHFG isn't quite as flexible unless you push for it, it can be done (as it can with most anything) but it needs more work. Maybe it's a little weird, but in this sense it means that SRMTHFG is more a show about "our guys", so to speak, whereas Ben 10 is a show more open to being about "these guys", if that makes sense.

>>148955856
I hope that it eventually does anyway. The show really deserves it.

>>148955861
People love angst and monsters Anon

>>148956052
That I can agree with. I hope Ciro Nieli can write the conclusion he wants sometime, he's talked about it a little bit.

>>148956142
Just keep them original and don't taint kids shows

>>148956276
I think he can't legally because of Disney owning the rights.

>>148954387 (OP)
This show gave me nightmares as kid.

>>148956848
How?

There's someone making a fan revival comic I believe.

>>148955856
I think there's more EEnE fanwork than KND but most of it is just shipping crap

Reminds me, of what Nova said here. What would an idealized version of a muscular fem Gibson look like?
Inb4 that realistic pic of Gibson, that Chiro imagined.

No, Ben 10 is multi generational and was on a major network

Its another anime parody where they never replicate the anime aesthetic or takes the concept seriously. Always stuck in the metafiction.

>>148966235
>never replicate the anime aesthetics
never read astroboy? and the anatag's skull head T shape is ripped of straight from 70s and 80s kid friendly anime.

>>148954387 (OP)
I don't like monkeys, I don't like extremely boxy robots, I don't like men wearing make up, I don't like western cartoons trying to be eastern cartoons, I don't like "quirky" and "playful" intro themes.

>>148962404
I sometimes confuse that one with the Teen Titans episode with the Newfu.

I wanted to fuck the monkeys

>>148966235
This show takes itself plenty seriously though.

>>148966255
NTA, but nice. Any other copypasta from past threads ready in your pocket?

>>148966235
>never takes the concept seriously
I would argue it took itself "too seriously" some times.

>>148966971
>"too seriously"
Nah, the whole show was meant to be like a dramatic space opera anime from the beginning.

>>148966992
Whatever you say, Hyperforcefag

>>148966428
What do you like then?

>>148960548
Wasn't Monkey Team a Disney show though?

>>148954387 (OP)
The monkey show was the 1 show it desperately needed a video game.

The monkey show has a lot in common with TMNT rather than KND & Transformers, TMNT, Megaman, etc.

>>148955856
The way autism /fan works are attracted is if there's easy ways to self insert such as there not being just 1 monkey team or 1 chosen ones, but several teams, just like KND.

That way it creates leeway for different robot designs, different personality characters, different colors, while still being "canon" in the same universe, but without infringing upon the current concept and having to destroy the current characters. Nobody wants to be Krinkle. They want to be more like the frog/toad team, but they want to be closer to the monkeys by being "one of them" but without getting creepy about it. At least the perception of not being creepy about it.

What's the problem?

This show has some really cool art too.

>>148967710

>>148966992
I remember season one being pretty episodic until like 6-7 chapters before they travel to skeleton man land.

>>148968693
Yeah. But that doesn't mean the series took itself "too seriously"

>>148968764
>I know the Skeleton King is evil but why is he such an asshole
Wasn't the point of S2 that skeleton king was basically an extension of an hyperspace demon made of pure evil or something

I think they retired they series before the ending from airing in my country

>>148968802
No, it didn't. I'm just saying that I don't think the story took itself too seriously.

>>148968764

Yeah it was morbid, but not "too serious".

I would call shows like Young Justice as too self-serious to the point where it's absurd.

>>148970760
*morbid because of body horror and "dark" elements but never depressing or bleak

>>148970760
I hate that term "self serious"

Skeletons, the nature enemy of primates

Even if this show gets a miraculous last season, it makes me sad Chris Reccardi (The Modifyers pilot creator) is no longer around.

He directed a lot of S3 and S4 episodes and the humour and design really ramped up on those.

The one episode I can vaguely remember from this show is the one zombie one.
Mostly because episodes like that, across many cartoons, that involve a 'zombification/infection' plot ended up giving me a fetish for it.
Off the top of my head the shows that I think of for that trope would be SRMTHFG, Xiaolin Showdown, and 6teen. There's definitely more but those are the ones that always stuck especially hard for me.

>>148976870

>>148976870
Didn’t the literal giant robot become a zombie too?

>>148961894
He should've switched to power primate.

honestly blew my mind. Such random casting.
