>kind of forgettable title
The Gaslight District is a very memorable title. Sorry that you have the memory of a goldfish, anon.

>>149222894 (OP)
Overstimulating, visually and plot-wise. Too much going on. Like the creator heard kids like lore in their toons and went overboard with the worldbuilding.

>>149222933
>>kind of forgettable title

Think it could have worked and been cool if the style was like Victorian era, 1800s? And that's the appropriate tech level, more or less. But instead it's like... some weird 1920-30s pastiche?

>>149222933
>>over-convoluted plot
That's the killer. You never front load your show with lore, people tune out

>>149222933
>>149223464
I fucking tuned out in like the first minute or something, where during an action scene car chase, the girl hops onto the other car and starts having a fucking conversation with the guy they're after, completely killed any sense of high stakes or urgency.

>>149223444
It's actually a post-post-scarcity society where the tech level is akin to magic! So even further from the Victorian era making the title even more inappropriate.

>>149223588
I had assumed the title was in regards to gaslighting, the psychological term

One job

>>149223536
I have seen moments like this before were they banter while in a fight or even a moving vehicle or both like in the scene
not defending just saying

>>149223638
During a fight is one thing, and banter is also another thing. Right? Like exchanging a witty or insulting back and forth during a duel, is a pretty common trope.

But this is a high speed pursuit under gunfire, while she's performing acrobatics around the exterior of the car itself and she has a lore conversation with him.

My point is, I've already seen this lots of times, done better by more skilled people. What's special about it? What's the hook?

>>149222894 (OP)
Because the characters are uglier than even Adventure Time and Steven Universe. Turns out people don't want to see a cast of characters who are literal rotting corpses. And a humanity that has degenerated so grossly that the first thing Gaslight District showed was a human eating shit. That's disgusting.

The whole show is visually disgusting even more than other gross shows like Ren and Stimpy. Mel is the only normal human and yet her disguise requires that she looks like a corpse. That's unappealing. This show is simply ugly to the point it offends eyesight.

>>149223687
Also way too much of

>Using a commonly understood name or impression of something, like say "angel", except that in this setting that something is completely different because reasons

did it actually flop? it's just one episode

>>149222933
It also doesn't help that the show is another Heaevn is Evil bullshit story. I am so tired of that trash.

Any time the story goes Heaven is Evil I will consider it irredeemable garbage.

>>149223793
I could only stand about a minute and a half of it, but I remember it already having millions of views

>>149222894 (OP)
>unappealing character designs
>unappealing personalities
>confusing loredumping

it was just too much. I watched the whole thing, gave it a fair shot but it just isn't for me.

>>149223804
Those views are usually because Glitch has been living off the fame of Murder Drones and Digital Circus. And you must remember that Glitch legit relies on merchandise selling to keep making stuff and I doubt Gaslight District's merchandise took off compared to their first two shows.

>>149223701
They should have leaned harder into the waifu element, like you could tell they wanted her to be a waifu but it's like they were embarrassed about it.

>>149223719
>visually derivative of Burton/Selick and LucasArts point & click games

not really an issue in and of itself, it's nostalgic to a certain set of viewers and legitimately fresh to younger ones. I think it was missing the humor of Burton/Selick/LA though.

>>149223804
It's at 17M after a bit over two months.

>>149222894 (OP)
I really liked the relationship between the girl and the big fat brute guy, but really didn't like everything else.

>>149223848
how's that a flop exactly?
it'll have its audience as more episodes come out, especially after TADC ends.
these faggoty Sharty skibidi toilet poster threads shitting on Glitch with the most retarded posts are always so blatant and the complaints are always nonsensical.
>the animation is.. TOO GOOD!

>>149224069
TADC isn't going to end at one season, it's gotten too big and popular. Glitch will force the goose at gunpoint if they have to

>>149224069
Glitch has 13 million subscribers. Some of them gave it a chance but the lack of a bustling fandom online means the pilot didn't expand their audience. If the pilot was posted elsewhere, those 17 million views would not happen. Some gave it a chance but 1 episode is enough to decide if the world is interesting or not. It's not so expect those views to decrease

>>149222894 (OP)
Garbage artstyle

>>149222894 (OP)
All the characters are very ugly

>>149224091
That's not how Glitch works retard. TADC is ending on episode 9, then Gooseworx is going back go their youtube channel. This isn't a major network or studio, Glitch have made it pretty clear that the MO is to keep cycling through ambitious creators that want to make a show and producing their show for them by taking them on as showrunners. They're not just going to keep milking TADC dry.

>>149224069
>it'll have its audience as more episodes come out
The interest in the pilot is significantly lower compared to the Amazing Digital Circus, same for the pilot merch ad. Making more of Gaslight District isn't free, and it's fair to assume that merch sales have some correlation with youtube metrics and the general lack online buzz around the pilot. Even a single followup episode might be too much of a commitment.

>>149222894 (OP)
Much of this thread feels like a schizo samefagging out of a vendetta against GLITCH.
>>149224069
Pretty sure the Skibidi Toilet spammer is infact pretty much confirmed to be some forced shit from the Sharty. It might not be all one guy but it does feel very artificial along with threads like this.

>>149224248
>That's not how Glitch works retard. [...] They're not just going to keep milking TADC dry.

Sure thing, kid. They're all going to just give up on the shitload of money they're making

>>149224248
Nigga they're gonna clap Goose in irons and never let go just for the merch sales alone.

>>149224248
> not just going to keep milking TADC dry.
I mean they probably can and will with merch continuing even after the show has ended like how MD is still getting new shit.

>>149224248
>>149224324
I don't think it's impossible that Glitch could end up with, or simply pay through the nose for TADG IP rights, so even if Geuswerx moves on, Glitch can still keep milking that cow. Even if just a spinoff series with different characters but the same premise, the concept is too easy to work and make money with

This, Digital circus is coasting hard off the """mystery""" as was murder drones.

>>149222894 (OP)
>>149224290
NO INDIE CARTOON SERIES compares to The Amazing Digital Circus, dude. It went viral with kids and normalfags. This is a stupid comparison.

You'd make much more sense comparing to Murder Drones, which was infact a successful show built upon its own merits well before TADC became a thing and went viral. And that wasn't instantaneous either, there was a long length of time (a year) where there was nothing after the Murder Drones pilot and there wasn't much "noise" apart from a bit of the usual art as there wasn't much foundation for an actual fandom. Then episodes started coming out and it gained a dedicated fanbase from that point on.

Also the MD and TADC pilots took time to reach the numbers they're now at. I swear people liken you have no concept of how things develop over time. I swear - have you just not comprehended the last 3 years of the MD pilot, eventual MD episodes, then the TADC pilot and eventual TADC episodes? Just wait for more episodes of Gaslight District to come out, it's literally just a fucking Pilot and hasn't even been up for that long. It obviously won't be as big as Amazing Digital Circus, and it may very well not be as big as Murder Drones. But it's not a "flop" just from the Pilot.

>Nobody wants to have sex with corpses compared to robots and cartoon characters

>Generally feels like an off-brand Hazbin Hotel what with the whole HEAVEN LE BAD thing and the main cast all being some quirky morally abhorrent abominations against God, probably would devolve into gay homosexual drama eventually
>Pilot does the same thing as Murder Drones/TADC where all the background characters look the same but worse given there's no excuse like Drones all being the same or Mannequins being designated filler NPCs

>>149224690
My stance is that the production quality is probably too high relative to how the pilot has performed so far, and the production quality is the only thing that makes it stand out.

>>149222894 (OP)
Do you remember that guy in high school who was kinda retarded and weird and carried around a novel he was writing, and you asked to read it as a joke and everything was retarded and stupid but he thought it was le art and amazing? That's the writing in this thing.

>In heaven
Or some shit. This thing doesn't make up it's mind if it wants to be a comedy, fantasy, action, gore, drama, gothic fantasy, sci-fi, caper, and a half dozen other genres.
Worst of all, it's boring.
Beautiful renderes, though.

>>149224305
Bait or utterly retarded. Either way stop spouting nonsense you cynical fag.
>>149224320
>>149224324
Yes they absolutely will keep putting out TADC merch for a while after the show ends, just like Murder Drones. Because MD and TADC merch makes a lot of money, which helps fund Glitch's production of its shows - and a lot of people continue to care about the shows even long after they end and want to support Glitch. This does not mean Glitch will continue to milk TADC completely dry over endless seasons without Gooseworx like a cable network. This is a dumb assumption and Glitch has shown no indicator of being like this. You're making bad faith assumptions of Glitch over nothing. All they've done so far is gove aspiring showrunners the opporunity to get their single run series idea produced to a growing audience.
>>149224368
Glitch wouldn't do that. The shows don't work without the showrunner, and Luke and Kevin (owners of Glitch) have shown they're not really the best showrunners to begin with as shown with their earlier Glitch series Meta Runner and Sunset Paradisr which was before they started bringing in outside creators to be showrunners. Also people would turn on Glitch for this, it also goes against their current method of producing a single series of a show for a showrunner and then starting on the next project.

you're so naive it's almost cute

>>149223185
Which board?

They did a terrible mistake releasing the pilot before the 5th episode of TADC, fans were thinking that this show was delaying the pomni show
If the second episode gets than less than 10 millions views, it isn't worth it.

Weird how this either is the exact same thread and OP as the last Gaslight District hate thread.
Or the janitors deleted my post and any post commenting on it when I asked for proof from OP.
So either the spammer making these is just repeating the same thread and greentext endlessly or he’s a janitor and deleting anything that goes against his narrative.

Both are very sad.

You sound like some loser cartoonist who's pitch got rejected by some network in favour of more endless seasons of soulless manufactured slop that's long since becime a rotting carcass of its originally good self. So now you're here being cynical and claiming this upstart indie studio that, so far, has accrued a lot of good will shall be the same as said soulless companies.

You'll be assmad about Glitch's success forever at this rate, schizo. The only one sucking cocks here is you, it's probably the only way you could get anyone to actually listen to your pitch before it got binned. Which is why you're here endlessly coping.

>>149225495
no not really, it's just nothing will be as big as TADC and OP is a spamming samefagging nigger.

>>149225495
Only in the sense that we've gotten nothing more since the pilot/merch drop, and that the only ones who care have already moved on off-site. Even with the shitposting and samefagging going on, there just isn't enough activity, let alone actual content, to keep the threads or any kind of discussion going.

>>149223347
It's like calling it FR FR Nation

>>149225554
>there just isn't enough activity...to keep the threads or any kind of discussion going.
And how is that bad? Or reflect negatively on the show itself at all? People moving on until there's something new to talk about is normal.

>>149224113
This. The majority of Gaslight District's views are due to the high-profile YT channel it premiered on. Were it not for that, it likely wouldn't have stood out among the sea of forgotten independent webcartoons.

I honestly wonder if Glitch and the creator of TGD got into it a little in regards to how the Pilot was set up and and the setting of it as well. This isn't a series that I can see lasting like with MD and especially with it's dumb quirky female protag, the non-overpowered easily taken out Angels and not centering most of the setting with just having the mafia just doing wacky hijinks around the underworld city. Honestly the TGD is really just a reskinned Helluva Boss show when you really examine thoroughly.

>>149224236
It's suppose to be a horror cartoon. Not every character needs to be dolled up to the extreme.

>>149225336
NTA but its going to happen, it won't be now or even the immediate future, but if Glitch continues to grow its going to become more corporate and shitty. Its likely going to start whenever another guy or guys gets a position of authority and Luke & Kevin are not as active in the day to day.
That's just how things are.

>>149222894 (OP)
i don't know but i was very interested until the instant i saw the frame rate

Some day we will have anons lamenting why TADC got popular and not Gaslight which was exremely kino. Mark my words. Genuinely or through contrarianism anons will start to look back fondly on the pilot and I think all of this stuff about how "bad" it is comes from hate circle jerking.

>>149222894 (OP)
Maybe not have character eating ((actual) shit for starters would help

>>149226909
All Glitch thumbnails are

The pacing is fucked.
Just like Murder Drones it never lets any moment, be it comedic or emotional, any room too breath.
Watching the pilot was just frustrating. There's a lot of potential there and hard work, but you can't appreciate it because it just washes over you in a ceasless assault on your senses

>>149227059
I don't really follow them, but this one in particular is atrocious.
>Look! A creepy psycho maniac zombie waifu! Watch our show please!

>>149227190
Its a symptom of the modern industry, nobody understands proper blocking and pacing anymore, nor do they have the time to practice with it on account of who they need to get story dense material into approximately 12-30 minute chunks.

>>149223717
What the fuck is even happening?

>>149227466
A scifi arms race between toilets and camera-headed men

>>149227403
I don't understand why they can't do a 2 parter or start off with a story that has some lore hooks but is more character driven.
Like most succesful shows do that.

>>149222894 (OP)
The Monkey Wrench of Glitch Productions.

>>149227484
Because the team behind it didn't process those parts of it fully.
Like normally if your pilot is also your first episode you start it off with set up and exposition and then save the energy for the climax.
Meanwhile a cold open is for projects that are already assured and have time to present themselves. The pilot needed another 4 minutes at least to slow down and let people process everything being thrown at you.

I don't think it flopped, per se. I just think that it's falling short of the absurd measuring stick that is The Amazing Digital Circus.

>Most transparent industry plant in history that looked like someone fed every webseries into an ai training model and it rendered it down into the most by the numbers milquetoast slop.

This was painful to see idiots try and push. yes the animated short has a failgirl you can fix and she might have low enough standards to fuck you. Next bit.

>>149227466
You're responding to a schizo that samefags endlessly and posts skibidi toilet garbage while crying about Glitch. That's all he does on this board.

>>149222894 (OP)
I enjoyed it well enough, but I feel it's lacking in intrigue. What are the questions in The Gaslight District? Beyond "is Mel's destiny avoidable/misinterpreted", which is obviously going to be "no/yes" respectively because it's the most blatantly obvious thing in the world that we're following the messiah, not the antichrist.
It's just gonna be a bunch of wry humor about unlife in a grungy immortal world. It's fine to watch to fill the time, but there's no hooks like Murder Drones and Digital Circus. I don't really want to see more of it.

>>149223793
Anons are retards. It wasn’t a flop. They just hold everything to the standard of TADC now, so if it doesn’t get 600 million views in the first 3 minutes, it’s a failure.

>>149227507
>acting like 17 million views in 2 months isn't a lot

Yes it will

>>149227875
No it won't

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ut5sk0RUlS4

>>149227869
I think it's fine enough for just the pilot.
I felt the same way with Murder Drones and The Amazing Digital Circus pilots.

"okay, guess I'll wait to see how the rest of the show is"

Murder Drones and Digital Circus ended up having good appeal and were engaging, so we'll have to see how Gaslight District is with more episodes. Like others have said, the success of TADC isn't an appropriate bar to set. Maybe Gaslight District can perform like Murder Drones did, maybe it'll be less. As long as episodes get over 10 or 15 million views I think it'll be a fine show with a healthy enough fanbase.

>>149227870
That and it's also an easy button to press for some people.

>>149224290
>The interest in the pilot is significantly lower compared to the Amazing Digital Circus
Retard argument. TADC broke records and is significant because it's such an extreme outlier. People who use it as the new standard are fucking idiots. Nearly everything is going to seem like a flop in comparison.
Murder Drones was self sustainable. The pilot came out 3 years ago and over the course of those 3 years "only" garnered 69 million views. The Gaslight District pilot came out 2 months ago and already has ~1/4 of those views.

>>149227888
TADC had a looot more intrigue to work with. What adventures will they go on? Who will abstract next? Will Pomni break down or find her place? Will anyone else ever join the circus? Who were the previous members who have abstracted? Are Jax and Zooble just jerks, is Gangle just a crybaby, is Kinger just wacky, or is there more to them? Following that, what's Gangle like with her comedy mask intact? Is Ragatha as stable as she seems? Is the cellar a good thing or a bad thing? How'd they even get here? And, of course.. what's in the Void?
Many of these questions have already been answered. Many linger.

>Trash made with no original thought or merit to imitate others and nothing more.

Seeing you fags go "omg new pomni dropped" was fucking sad. You are absolutely the bronies that ran this board into the ground back in the day aren't you?

>>149224936
your stance is fucking retarded and you'll be proven wrong when a full season of Gaslight District comes out at the same production value as the pilot or higher.
Your assumption would make more sense if TADC was barely breaking even. Then it would stand to reason that anything less popular would make less money and be unable to fund production. In actuality, TADC makes a lot more money than it needs to several times over. In other words, there's a surplus of budget coming in from TADC which Glitch is investing in growing their roster/brand.
And before you try to clap back about TADC ending, again, shows don't NEED to be as popular as TADC to be self sufficient. Murder Drones was far less popular and was able to fund itself. Gaslight District will, at the very least, be popular enough to fund its own production. On top of that, the deals with Netflix and Amazon sweeten the deal.

>>149227972
shit bait u tried

>>149225101
wow, you're so smart. You should message Glitch and tell them about your genius roll out ideas.

>>149227984
Funny thing is, Murder Drones made LOADS of money from the merch it sold (and continues to sell) and regularly sold out especially during episodes premieres.

So much so that you can see the massive budget increases over time for Glitch, along with increasing the size of the time by taking on more animators and whatnot, with each episode up to eventually being able to make TADC as well.
So can you IMAGINE the money TADC makes just through merch sales?
So yeah, absolutely agreed. Gaslight District will be fucking fine lmao. Glitch is good at selling merch, which is primarily how they fund their shows.

>>149226068
The same could have been said about TADC. It got traction because Glitch already had momentum from their previous shows. Had it been the first release on a no name channel, there's a good chance it wouldn't have blown up to the degree that it did.

>>149226952
Probably, but they can do some good during the halcyon days.
Glitch is creating pathways for indies to compete with mainstream networks. The Glitch brand may eventually be corrupted, but that won't unblaze their trails.

>>149227519
>if your pilot is also your first episode you start it off with set up and exposition and then save the energy for the climax
That would make more sense if the second episode was going to come out relatively soon after the "pilot". Because of the way Glitch produces episodes, they needed to hook people with lots of action and questions first because its probably going to be a good 7 months until we get episode 2.
If they started slower with lore building, there would still be threads shitting on Gaslight District, but anons would be complaining about how boring it was and how nothing happened.

>>149222894 (OP)
>15 million views
>A flop
For a series without an already established fanbase, that amount for an indie show is good. Also considering how not everyone is into grimdark settings.

>>149228014
I'm flatly in disagreement. Pomni's design is so absolutely rockstar algorithm-ignition high quality that even if they were literal no-names, it was going to go viral. This sex creature is a genuine lighthouse to the greater internet.

>>149228080
TADC is a wholesale ripoff of Popee the Performer. Popee is great and has some traction, but it's very much a cult show. TADC would have found an audience, but it wouldn't have been nearly as massive as it is had it not been able to ride in the wake of a pre-established track record.

>>149228063
Gaslight District is going to be fine. It probably won't be as huge as TADC which I'm quite happy with. The severely autistic and rabid fanbase of TADC is the worst part about it. It will be kind of nice to be able to talk about a show with a lower ratio of tards shitting up the threads.

>>149228089
You didn't grasp the actual point of my post. TADC's ability to spread was not because of its writing or story, though its writing and story being good certainly helped. If it was literally just the Pomni show of Pomni, it was going to be a success.

>>149228101
There's no point in me continuing to discuss this with you. It's clear that no minds are going to be changed.

>>149228089
>ACTUALLY THIS OLD SHIT IS REALLY GOOD MAN BELIEVE ME, THIS NEW WELL MADE THING FUCKING SUCKS
Nobody cares about Popee you nostalgia drunk faggot.

>>149228112
That tends to happen when you are not even attempting to discuss. Discussion requires acknowledging what points are raised, you see. TADC being a ripoff means less than nothing.

>>149228119
>Nobody cares about Popee
clearly Goose did

>>149228089
I watched Popee the Performer. You're full of shit.

>knock off of a knock off of a knock off
So OP is actually the guy behind this trying to generate interest in his slop isn't he? this shits embarassing.

I tried watching it but it was too ADHD for me. Hard to focus on anything

WHAT
THAT IS NOT A FLOP
I didn't care for it but you mother fucker, that's a fucking amazing view count

>>149228284
TADC broke /co/s mind. Now the 15 year olds who primarily occupy this board think that anything that falls short of those impossible metrics is an abject failure.

>>149223632
This. While I liked it, it was really disappointing to see that it wasn't gaslamp fantasy.
>>149223600
I'm going to be upset if that's what it was. It's a clever pun but gaslamp fantasy is so scarce that it's just in bad taste to tease it

>>149223844
Rookie mistake. You're fighting for your life in the indie scene. All you've got are waifus. There's a reason Vivzie have Loona a human form

>>149223848
17 million people watched it? That's pretty good, Anon.

>>149228360
Fuck I remember when I first saw TADC character teasers and I thought I would have to fight to keep threads bumped because obviously it wouldn't do as well as MD

>>149224986
You just made me realize it is like a random fanfiction dot net story some middle schooler wrote which makes me like it more

>>149228452
I remember people being like "please glitch don't let it falter with the production of murder drones!" on their youtube as if it's one team or as if they can't hire enough with their money to balance the production of both, either way tadc ended up being more successful than md and really any other glitch creation by a massive fucking landslide

Who cares? It will be yet another max ~8 episode slop that people will forget after a year

>>149228616
eeeeeh ihnmaims is not only darker but also way more straight to the point and horrible(as in scarier) the circus is still fun though

>>149228616
>>149228650
Goose said Ihnmaims was a inspiration to caine.
I dunno, I liked the show but from the teaser where he threw knives at pomni I was kinda hoping it would be like, meaner? also goose worked with oneyplays as is a fan, which would also be meaner. The centipede in ragathas bed bed is literally a bit from oneyplays

>>149228690
I know that there is some inspiration but there is clearly a huge difference, also AM is way more threatening and evil

>>149228637
Drone-who? We're in 2025, nobody cares about your show

>>149222894 (OP)
this is a really ugly thumbnail. i feel like not enough people mention how ugly the thumbnail is.

>>149222894 (OP)
How can something that was made for less than 53 dollars and 73 cents flop?

>>149228701
Yet you're here seething about it through thinly veiled bait posting

>>149228703
You might as well say Mel is ugly because she is the tumbnail.

>>149228703
She's got a nice ass.

Really blowing through all the possible bait to shit on Glitch's shows aren't you? At this point it's almost like someone has a vendetta or something.

>>149228744
we reached that point over a year ago

>>149228468
You can still enjoy your endlessly running Simpsons, Family Guy, Southpark, and Rick and Morty, faggot.

>>149222894 (OP)
How did it flop?

>>149228768
That's the neat part, it didn't.

>>149226068
The fact that there are retards here that still keep repeating MUH 17 MILLION are missing the point that there was already millions built in to give it a chance. If this pilot was posted on a channel with 5k subscribers and blew up, then you have grounds for appluding how far it came. Starting on 3rd base and pretending you hit a triple isn't impressive
>>149227507
>>149227872
Zurel nuked the pilot off of his channel with 700k subs and re-uploaded it to a brand new channel dedicated to the show . That would kill the momentum, you want to post a pilot on your established channel. Hazbin got the traction it did because Viv wasn't stupid enough to do that and kept everything under one channel.

>>149228836
> there was already millions built in to give it a chance
keep coping. The show will do fine. If the viewership drastically tanks after the 2nd episode releases, then you'll be proven correct. I don't suspect that will be the case.
The pilot premiered on April 18th and has gotten ~17mil views so far. That's roughly 17mil views in 75 days.
If the second episode drops and 75 days later the views are far less than 17mil, you'll be proven correct. If the numbers maintain or go up, you'll be proven wrong.
Screenshot this.

>>149222894 (OP)
Not enough sexy girls?

>>149228908
Is it really so hard to believe that a pilot posted on an animation channel with 13 million subscribers was guaranteed to get 17 million views? No shit, that's obvious. I don't see any hype for this thing, Glitch fans care more about the other 2 shows than this

>>149229902
To be fair, the promo art (like OPs pic) really isn't doing it any favors. I mean, watching the pilot proper, I like the designs in a sort of Beetlejuice/Tim Burton/Henry Selick sort of way. But the promo stuff just comes off as trying too hard to emulate the zoomed-in-face look that you see everywhere else on the net.

>>149228768
it's just a synonym for "I didn't like it therefore I must pretend nobody did", same shit as always

>>149230512
> Dude, you can tell
I'm not fighting with you on this. I'm saying that we'll find out when episode 2 comes out. If, 75 days after episode two comes out, it falls reasonably short of 17mil views, then you'll be proven right. And if it maintains or increases, then you'll be proven wrong. No need to bicker about it. Just wait, count the days, and see.

>>149222894 (OP)
I haven't watched it, so I can explain why people aren't watching it.
Uh, it looks ugly and unappealing. That's pretty much it. It's just ugly, so I didn't click on it, and I assume the plot is unappealing too because nobody is really talking about it, and it has no word of mouth praise.
It's pretty safe to say it's probably just not very good.

>>149223687
>>Another fucking indie thing where the guys in hell are le misunderstood good guys and le angels in heaven are le evil
That can be good if done right. Stop saying entire plots or tropes are bad, that just gets people to not try anything.

Tari, the main protag of Meta Runner

Both terrified and aroused by this thing. Keep having recurring thoughts of her sensually biting my lip, knowing full well she'd very likely rip it clean off the next moment.

>>149234252
Top right? Tari from Meta Runner. One of Glitch's older shows before they started bringing in outside creators to be showrunners to make shows like Murder Drones, The Amazing Digital Circus, Gaslight District.

Fuck you assholes for making me want to fear-fuck the eldritch horror god possessed The Thing robot-human fusion monster.

Also TECHNICALLY not fucking a straight up corpse since the flesh is still kinda alive.. but assimilation is weird territory.

>>149222894 (OP)
I did not care for this nor any other Glitch product that isn't Digital Circus.

>>149222933
it's a shame, personally i love the art style and a lot of the character designs, but i have to agree with everything else. the mess of a plot completely killed it in particular, especially for a pilot it was way too much.

>>149234986
Glitch isn't actually very good IMHO, they have a niche for people who like quirky tumblr shows but TADC is the only one with broad appeal so far.

Not a flop

>>149222894 (OP)
It made a romp on Twitter for a bit, and has enough of a distinct feel from Digital Circus to keep going.
Sure, it didn't absolutely take the internet by storm the way TADC did, but I'm pretty sure once we get to episode 3 and the plot gets a more focused direction, it'll have found it's own niche.

>>149222894 (OP)
I've seen all of its composite parts before (quirk chungus female lead, "subtle" mental health melodrama, heaven le bad, video essay lore world) and it's not doing anything unique with them. imo episode 2 will have massive falloff
The immortality gimmick is interesting but you can just kill people anyways?

>>149235281
>IT HAS TO BE FOR NORMALFAGS OR ELSE IT'S NOT GOOD
Things can be niche and still be good and enjoyed. Murder Drones is much more niche and less normie friendly than TADC, yes still managed to be super successful and enjoyed by many. You people that act like TADC is only good because it got a gorillion views on the Pilot when it went viral (even though that's calmed down substantially now that it's found its audience) are obnoxious as fuck. Gaslight District will also find its niche when more episodes come out.
I think TADC is a good, well made show but I can't tell if you cocksuckers choking on it so loudly are being ironic and trying to make TADC fans look bad or you've actually fallen into treating cartoons like they're a tournament for your singular attention.

Glitch literally has some of the biggest cartoons on Youtube when you DON'T even include TADC. So what even is your point?

>>149235281
>they have a niche for people who like quirky tumblr shows but TADC is the only one with broad appeal so far.
and TADC is a quirky tumblr show you idiot.
Using MD as the starting off point for Glitch (and ignoring everything before like Meta Runner and Sunset Paradise) they've only got 3 shows so far - MD finished, TADC halfway done, and GD in production. Discounting TADC, MD is still like.. the 3rd or 4th biggest cartoon on Youtube especially after stuff like Helluva Boss fell off so hard. These posts using TADC as the measuring stick for success or what's good and what isn't never make any sense. Just enjoy what you enjoy and stop acting like popularity is the only deciding factor.

>>149223632
a fucking disappointment!

I won’t lie, I like this concept art, it has a Tim Burton-Jhonen Vazquez thing going for it.

>>149235812
I think it was a mistake for them to abandon the cel shaded look of the original concept animation. It being fully rendered in 3d gives them more superficial detail but you completely lose the simple immediate charm of these 2d designs, especially with the expressions

>>149235847
The expressions are the worst part

>>149225319
nah. Im 22 old and same desu. I belive they thought making things happening as fast as possible would call the attention of the youth duo to their short attention spam. They failed miserably tho
