/co/ - Comics & Cartoons

>>475889
This is coming sooner than I had expected. With the art style and general theming I had thought we'd be waiting until October for the show. Cool to see it is nearly here already.

Hooray, more indieslop to jerk off too.

Can't wait to collectively write 10,000 x more content in fan fiction than what is actually in the show.

>>475889
Can't wait. The art style reminds me of Plants vs Zombies

>>476138
I'm >>476175 I feel very positive about it

>>476262
I saw that thing played in a video but never had a clue what it might be.

>>476041
As is tradition

I really wish we got to see this on /co/ instead of being scattered on a thousand different places like we're the damn israeli.

Oh well. Let's enjoy it, I guess.

Runtime is 27 minutes.

>>475889
It feels like better Hazbin Hotel/What Hazbin should have been.

I've got my whisky ready. Both to celebrate the start of this show and to celebrate the memory of 4chan.
Rest in peace to one of the best worst websites, and a salute to all of the anons who made it what it was, good and bad.

>>476613
Don't kid yourself, it's going to be back soon enough, as bad as it always is.

>>475889
I absolutely loved MD, and this new show actually looks pretty interesting. Sitting in with food to tune in, hope it's good.

>>476039
Love your art, you fucking degenerate.

>>476138
Same here, it looks pretty unique. I like how each new Glitch show looks so distinctive.

>>476571
>>476584
Yeah it's very unfortunate that this is coming out while mai site 4chan is kill. Would love to have a big old premiere thread on /co/. Even if there'd be a bunch of inevitable contrarians bitching about this new show.

Welp, here we go.

>>475889
this thumbnail sucks. i hate it. i don't ever want to see it ever again.

ITS STARTING

Guys I want to fuck Mel already.

>Rotlings
>Not Blockheads
BOOOOO!!!!

oh god guys Mel has a schizo wall like Uzi

Hi Jack

Daaaamn this music is good

It’s no Murder drones from the trailer look. Female chars aren’t nearly as hot or attractive either but ill give it a go for the atmosphere.

Holy shit I love this family of retards.

Also Mel is a cute.

Ohhh the egg human stuff is already out of the way huh

>>476635
Mel is fuckable and she's voiced by Cyn's VA so I'm hooked on that alone.

They got my nigga Jack....

MUD WHAT ARE YOU DOING

Ohh so Mel is a normal human, alright.
Would.

That's pretty fucked.up. So they can't die, so they throw them in water with a cement block to drown, die, and revive forever? Yikes.

Wonder how this would work out as a full series, this feels like a short film so far.

Hi Diligence

>checkpoint
Ah so we’re playing dark souls now.

Wish the pacing was slower

I'm missing it, crap.

>Mel is a little perv and looks at smut
Oh yeah. This show's going to get a lot of porn.

They killed of Temperance already?? Lame.

>>476651
All of Glitch's produced shows are VERY fast paced honestly, it's just how it is.

The benefit of these being web series is that you can go back and watch it again for stuff you missed or didn't have time to process because of the fast pace. Murder Drones, TADC, and now this are only 8-9 episodes and there's months between releases. So they have to get through a lot.

This shit is moving way too fast for me to register what I'm seeing

>Killed off Diligence already
?????????

This pacing is absolutely fucking breakneck. But I want to mating press Mel and I want Diligence to step on me.

>>476654
>>476658
He.. She... It... will probably be back, chill out.

Bro why’d they killed off like 2 big enemies already?

CUTE BIRDIE

>Helluva Boss except it's gross instead of horny

Wasn't really following most of the plot but the visuals were neat

that was insane. this is also likely the first glitch show with real gore

The cuts and cinematography are really weird and I dunno how to feel about it. Visually it's really cool though, will be waiting for more.

>>476668
It's not Hell, anon.

>>476670
6 / 10
It's a'ight.

>>476670
Better than Helluva Boss and Hazbin Hotel by such a large degree that it's not even funny.

>>476668
It's literally not hell. it's an apocalyptic setting with undead characters

>>476672
When did the Denizens of Gaslight ever come off as Cool or Smart?

>>476675
>Better than Helluva Boss and Hazbin Hotel by such a large degree
Do you have any idea how low of a bar that is?

>>476671
>>476678
It might as well be. It's the quirky sinful denizens of the underworld vs the evil fascist stuck-ups of heaven.

>>476670
5, felt way too rushed nothing felt established. I understand it’s a pilot, but it felt like more of a show off the cool cgi, than a story. Good cgi though, music was nice, and the cinematography felt nice bar the pacing. Chars felt meh, I liked the English zombie dude though.

>>476676
Doesn't she hold hands (fingers interlaced) with a guy named Romeo in literally the next part?

>>476668
It is a fallen earth and clearly the main cast is just as or more evil than the angels. They are also afraid of hell which establishes hell as also being a bad thing.

>>476672
>smart
you have not paid attention at all have you

>>476679
I agree with you on the angels but tbf at least the inspector angel is shown resurrecting

>>476680
The literal protagonists breaking into heaven, beating the shit out of everyone and escaping?

I liked it. It feels very MTV Liquid Television/Cartoon Sushi, and the setting is like what Helluva/Hazbin should've been with how gross and sleazy it feels with the line between good and evil being very blurry.

>>476680
"Smart" relative to the retarded angel stormtroopers, and "cool" because they're edgy nihilist punks who fight against a dippy strawman of conservative christians.

>>476668
I don't think it was heaven bad.

>>476691
Didnt that plan go to shit.

>>476688
>As if there isnt just as many stories about the opposite
Please show me any cartoons made in the last 5 or 10 years that are all about how heaven is great and everyone in hell is a stupid cunt

Murder drones felt like a indie show with it's animation

Digital Circus feels like a 3d kid's cartoon you'd see on TV

This one has felt like a Professional 3d animated movie and I'm so excited to see more

>>476693
>a dippy strawman of conservative christians.
Where in gods name did you even see a slight bit of Christian conservative critique in this?

>>476693
just because they're the main character doesn't mean that they're the good guys you have to root for

>>476696
They accomplished their plans, killed a Virtue (Temperance, not the Inspector) and only got screwed because they took too long to break the egg.

>>476701
You know it's gonna go that way. Every fucking show that ever touches on this subject matter always goes that way without fail. This will not be any different.

>it's the same "ME NO LIKE HEAVEN BAD HELL GOOD TROPES" bitching again
God damn man at least talk about what was actually in the pilot itself

>>476701
>Heaven is full of stuck up dumb fascists who are also racist and want to kill all the poor innocent gay punks of underland
How is that not christian conservatives?

Not so sure on the story and characters but that cinematography and music, a fucking choir at the end. That's the good shit. I also really appreciate the style and mixed media. Very refreshing.

There is nothing exceptional at all about this pilot beyond the animation.

>>476706
You absolute dumb retard, that is LITERALLY the entire pilot. The quirky-but-caring-family squad of punk gangsters are the protagonists, and the uniform-wearing discriminatory angels who want to burn the city down are the antagonists.

>>476672
Like two angels nearly defeated the entire party and the main characters are pretty clearly laid out as being stupid and violent.
>>476691
Every single step of that plan went to shit though.
>>476693
One of the three with speaking roles that we saw was an authoritarian guard. I really think you might be reading too much into this.

>>476705
>You know it's gonna go that way.
you assume it's going to go that way because you're annoyed by this trope. but nothing about the presentation implies "HEAVEN BAD DEMONS GOOD".

>>476710
I enjoyed the artstyle, the music, and the animation. I am tired of the same recycled 'heaven is bad and auuthoritarian' story being used for the 694854548859th time

I think I finally understand those retards who say they can't tell what's going on in Murder Drones.

Visually impressive but the pacing is fast. I'm curious to see how they'll go from here

>>476713
>One of the three with speaking roles that we saw was an authoritarian guard
The other was a fucked up scientist who was immediately killed (irrelevant) and the third was a literal crone who wants to burn and kill everyone in the city.

>>476677
Murder Drones was the start of Glitch's thing where they bring in an outside showrunner to be the creator of the show, and there was a substatial learning curve from the MD pilot (fucking hell, 2021 feels like it was yesterday).
I'm also excited to see how this improves. Murder Drones took massive leaps ahead in how good it got with each episode, and with all of Glitch's shows now you can see how they get their footing after seeing how the Pilot episode does.

So yeah, we'll see with how Gaslight District finds its stride. The pilot is a bit off on places, but I honestly can't complain. Glitch are one of the few show producers who I can confidently say LEARN as they go and keep improving.

>>476672
>>476668
The only "good" person we've seen is the Butcher, who we also saw murder one of the Virtues in cold blood. And we haven't seen the angels actually do anything wrong yet, the protags were the ones that invaded their turf and stole one fo their eggs.

And given the cliffhanger, I don't think the MC will be safe in the Gaslight District either.

>>476712
Except the prophecy says mel will kill everyone. Permanently. So the quirky family are the antagonists. Did you forget the plan to smash the eggweas to trick everyone into thinking the human is dead for another 10000 years instead of living among them.

>>476704
>accomplished their plans
they successfully stole the egg but nearly every step of the way their plan went to shit and ultimately failed, resulting in both heaven and the denizens of the gaslight district coming after them
also the most "loving" family member, Ken, is made out to be a violent psychopath with anger issues

>>476694
Why do I get the feeling Temperance is gonna revive inside Ken? Or Ken becomes the new Virtue?

>>476721
>Can you show how Heaven is oppressing the people of Gaslight in any regard?
Other than the fact that they're stuck up, wear military grunt clothing, and want to purge everyone down there?

>>476720
> who wants to burn and kill everyone in the city.
Wants is a strong term, its a Prophecy
In fact its literally just the biblical rapture, your whole religion is built upon the notion Heaven will eventually burn and kill everyon. Gaslight just keeps pushing the rapture back further and further.

>>476724
>Except the prophecy says mel will kill everyone.
And you actually think she's going to do that? Do you really think she's going to turn around and go 'Hmh yes i want to kill them now actually'

Or do you think it's going to be another 'beat the prophecy' story like, uh, i don't know, just about every single one of them?

>>476726
considering he was featured in the marketing I imagine he's coming back somehow, and that seems like the most logical way

>>476726
Is already revived, but can't regrow.maybe Ken will get punched in the gut so hard he pukes the brain up.

>>476727
>Nazis is when the guards where cool outfits
You have truly become everything you pretended to hate Snowflake

>>476710
>tradcath
If that's what you think this is about you're fucking stupid.

>>476719
>One of the angels was actually nice to Mud before being betrayed.
That's not an Angel. That's a Rotling working for them.

>>476725
>also the most "loving" family member, Ken, is made out to be a violent psychopath with anger issues
Yes, but who of course is ultimately a loving father who cares about Mel. Just like Hazbin and Helluva also makes out the characters to be depraved murderous degenerates yet still the quirky underdog heroes .

>>476729
Want may have nothing to do with. Maybe she starts emitting super death radiation once she is old enough.

>>476720
The scientist is implied to have worked with the dad in the past to save Mel and was portrayed as being outright murdered because this isn't an angels bad hell good show. The crow monster could easily be seen as in the right since the prophecy is pretty clearly a good thing considering how fucked earth is at this point and she didn't seem to be doing it out of sadism.
One angel was a dick.

>>476734
>If you point out a basic fact, YOU'RE the Snowflake
lol

>>476737
People can be objectively evil and still have positive qualities / care for and love someone else you fucking retard. He cares about his daughter even though he's a murderous, criminal asshole.

>>476727
>Stuck
Debatable, we've only seen that one guy. With Mama Bird angel telling "MC I know what you are". And we even saw somebody from Gaslight District work for them, since he said he knew Mud and was friends with him long ago, which Mud didn't deny.

>and want to purge everyone down there?
No? Not really anyway. Literally in the Gaslight Distrct, can't die, ever. So they couldn't purge them even if they wanted to. If anything, it's the human who has something to do with them stripping them of immortality.

I thought it was kino. Sure, there's some issues here and there but it's a decent story and worth keeping up with. No autism trigger like Murder Drones but that's alright. I just hope Glitch doesn't damn the show into having 8-9 episodes.

>>476739
>The scientist is implied to have worked with the dad in the past to save Mel and was portrayed as being outright murdered because this isn't an angels bad hell good show.
It showed him being killed. It said nothing about him being good. And it will almost certainly turn out Ken smuggled him out of Heaven because he didn't want her to be the angel's weapon against humanity.

>>476741
>No one is even talking about the show, but Culture War nonsense thats barely connected to the show at all.
welcome back, /co/, it's like you never left

>>476734
>Nazis is when the guards where cool outfits
Yeah, duh. Again, it's already gone that way a billion times before.

>Snowflake
Your thoughtless recriminations are not clever and they've never worked. You're not on bluesky.

>>476741
Shit like this makes me glad a lot of the best things came out before 2016, people would tear Silent Hill apart if it came out today.

>>476711
You'd be suprised how many /co/ beloved series fall into that camp

>>476741
It's the exact same thing in Helluva / Hazbin /co/ threads. Except this show actually seems pretty good and won't turn into a gay fujo fantasy. Schizophrenic seething about Christcuck shit.

>>476741
>Why do you care so much
Translation:
>Stop criticizing and praise blindly!

>>476729
Not on purpose but that probably isn't what the prophecy is all about. It'll probably end with the characters alive (for the most part) but with their immortality cut off.
>>476737
This isn't like Hazbin because Hazbin thinks the characters are always in the right. Fuck, man have you never watched anything with morally gray protagonists before?

>>476746
If I had to guess the thread shitters are from /co/ after 4chan attacks and just continued doing what they did there here. Or maybe people have just become more retarded over time

>>476742
So just like I said, it's a show about how the horrible quirky squad of bad guys is actually better than the heaven crusaders who want to purge everyone.

>>476743
>They don't want to purge them, they just want to strip them of their immortality and burn it all!

>>476741
because "bad thing is good" and "good thing is bad" are the most overused laziest tropes in modern writing. Subversion is becoming stale.

>>476741
I wish anons would stop arguing with those idiots, they're clearly set on their hateboner and have nothing of substance to say besides the same parroted bullcrap from 4prime

>>476756
Sure. Nuance doesn't exist. Can you go be retarded somewhere else now?

>>476741
Talking about things you didn't like about the show is not 'culture war', it's you using culture war as a defence from criticism.

>>476745
"I never told anybody", as in, he never told the others that mel was the human, if angels bad why would he keep that secret?

>>476757
Well if its overused then its not a subversion its just the norm. Did you whine when breaking bad did the exact same thing? Its a drama, and dramas arent about good people.
Again, do you truly not see if you got your way Television would be fucking boring? Did you never grow up from your Mom telling you bed time stories and all you can handle to see is the Good Guy fighting the Bad guy with zero nuance.

>>476756
Anon, they're not using their immortality for anything other than selfish self indulgence. Why SHOULD they have immortality while burning the world themselves, whilst facing no consequences?

>>476761
>Nuance doesn't exist.
What "nuance"? There's never a single shred of nuance in shows like this.

>>476764
>Well if its overused then its not a subversion its just the norm.
What the hell does that even mean? It's still a stale overused plot. That's a criticism. Stop shitting your pants because people criticise a show.
>Its a drama, and dramas arent about good people.
Even if this wasn't completely retarded nonsense, what does that have to do with the actual overuse of the 'Heaven is bad' plot?

I dont get what christ cucks want out of this
>Hell is real, Heaven is real
>Heaven wants to Rapture the Sinners
>Show will be about the Rapture
>Somehow the Rapture is now bad to the Christcuck
Dont you want the Rapture to happen? Thats the endgoal of your belief. Now you think its a bad thing?

Im buying all of the merch
No regrets

>>476764
"Subversion" is only tolerable when it's there to actually mean something and convey the theme better. "Thing historically associated with goodness is actually le BAD and SCARY" with zero nuance whatsoever is boring.

If the site had more traffic, the funposter would be ignored instead of taking over the whole discussion.

>>476771
>I dont get what christ cucks want out of this
How about an original plot for once? Have you considered that maybe I just don't want to see a kajillionth heaven le bad story?

God I hope because 4chan is kil this kind of drama is contained to here and wont become the only thing Gaslight is talked about for awhile. This is already getting tiresome, how to Demonfags deal with this 24/7

>>476778
it's very easy to ignore him, anon. all anyone has to do is click the hide button on his posts and talk about something else

>>476780
>This is already getting tiresome, how to Demonfags deal with this 24/7
They don't. Helluva/Hazbin threads are fucking terrible for a reason.

>>476780
Does it really hurt you this much that someone didn't like something about a show? Do you just scream CHRISTCUCK DRAMA SPAM at anyone who says they don't like something you do?

>>476775
I'm sorry do you have the scripts for future episodes? At best, the only person who's on Mel's side 100% is her dad, who has dark secrets himself, maybe Breadhead will stay by her side. But I don't see Mud staying loyal, because he's the kind of asshole who would sell them out.
And again, the angels haven't done anything morally wrong, or at least nothing that the Gaslight District isn't already doing themselves.

Where is all this leading? I dunno. But it's not as clear "black and white" and thinking it will be, and defang "hell" as anything other than a pit full of the worst kind of scum imaginable, like a certain other show.

>>476744
8 to 9 episodes might be what Glitch can afford to work on per show

>>476785
>Kind of like a combination of Revelation's fallen earth and the Jehova's Witness idea of heaven on earth.
Yeah. I got that kind of vibe. Everyone Rapture'd, everyone else left behind on Earth and can't die. There is a Hell, or a Hell-like place that Ken briefly talks about, but it seems to be a punishment the angels have to personally hand out.

>>476790
How do we think Ken got out of hell anyways? He was clearly there given his PTSD about it. Maybe that Virtue Surgeon helped?

>>476767
>selfish self indulgence
And that's a good thing! Be gay, do crime!

>>476788
>I'm sorry do you have the scripts for future episodes?
Okay, anon, then tell me, without irony, that you 100% believe there is a chance of an ending where Mel decides she's going to steal the immortality (pretty much kill given they're literally inhuman frankenstein filled with holes and sewed limbs) of her father, breadhead, and all her other friends.

The fact that the ultimate plan of heaven is so completely incompatible is what shows they're going to be the bad guys.

>>476786
I tend to feel this kind of way for all of Glitch's shows pilot episodes

Murder drones, Digital Circus, and now this
But as people have said, after the pilot they start to get the "feel" down and the show finds it footing better
It's a good start

>>476791
I think that was just a fantasy sequence of how he imagines hell.

>>476794
Most people wouldn't call murderers, degenerate drug addicted whores and bloodthirsty maniacs good guys either, but we all know how that ended in Hazbin an d Helluva.

>>476771
Shit-tier concern trolling.

>>476778
>the funposter
>the
Right only one person ever disagrees with you in fact of course.

Let's talk about Diligence wearing heels and stepping on people. Big dommy energy.

>>476794
>literal evil gangsters
>left behind for eternity, because they're bad people
>christcuck still seething
Yeah I don't get it either. Weird complaint. The show never makes it out lile these are good people, that doesn't mean you can't enjoy and root for them.

>>476800
>purposefully missing the point like this
I *know* they're bad people. We *know* they're bad people. What i'm complaining about is these bad people being the heroes who defeat the villains from heaven who are made about to be worse because they want to stop them from being evil gangsters.

>>476799
The Virtues were cute, I wish to be stepped on by one.

>>476793
The whole point of the first episode was to show us, how she's a dumb kid who doesn't understand anything at all.

And we were also shown the Gaslight Distrct is full of assholes, irredeemable assholes at that. The only slight exception is her dad, and again we don't know where the plot is actually headed since she won't be safe with her "own" anymore. They know she's a human, as far the episode is concerned she'll never have a moment of peace anywhere ever again.

I don't know where the story is going either, but if I were to take a wack it and guess, it's going to be her slowly realizing what she has to do for the sake of herself and the world.

>>476799
>>476801
>>476806
Finally some anons with their heads screwed on straight

>>476676
Welp it's shit now

>>476804
You ever see Reservoir Dogs or Goodfella?
They can be bad guys are still be the main characters who are fighting the antagonists. Our main characters are clearly portrayed as bad. The first thing we see them do is brutally consign an innocent friend to an eternal torment for a selfish reason. This is not what a writer does to show you that the protagonists are good people. We don't know fucking anything about the angels yet. They could be 110% in the right for all we know but they are still the antagonists of the story.

>>476812
Because prophecies don't get broken literally all the time in media, right? In fact, i'd go so far as to say that more prophecies get broken than they're actually kept.

>>476799
Glad I'm not the only one who thought they were hot

>>476819
>You ever see Reservoir Dogs or Goodfella?
Those show don't show good normal people to be just as bad if not worse than the 'heroes'

You can say 'We don't know for sure', but again, read what i said about killing Mel's family. It's not happening.

>>476817
>Viv is so bad that it broke an entire generation of Anons
GOD THE PAIN NEVER ENDS

>>476824
>Demons arent even harassing the left behind rotlings, so whats their deal? I guess they arent allowed to interfere with them until they actually die.
The rotlings don't seem to be allowed to ACTUALLY die for whatever reason. That little flash seems like their soul getting jammed back into their body. Perhaps there's no demons after this rapture event or something. I dunno.

>>476824
I heaven is actually ‘heaven’, the whole location of the show is a massive arcology floating above the remnants of destroyed earth, I think heaven is just the upper district, presumably whatever passes for ‘demons’ are just other undead somewhere else in the city, just as it seems the ‘angels’ are just undead that have replaced their entire bodies with robot parts, only their brains remaining

I also get what you mean about Commorragh, it’s pretty neat actually

>>476817
I hope that Gaslight District attracts the unfortunate souls that were attracted to Helluva Boss and Hazbin Hotel for their original premises of damned souls doin' shit - but were scorned by Vivzieslop's fag drama and tranny messaging taking the reigns.

Unfortunately, yes, we are still going to get the christcuck posting.

>>476835
Yeah I caught that mention of the black hand and whatnot

Maybe all the Rotlings are worshipping something other than god now? Ken was talking about the cycle and shit, it seems to me like some other being has entered the picture and that's why everyone is immortal and turned against heaven

Whatever the plot may be, it's kinda crazy how a indie corporation has more impressive animation than the industry giants that sink hundreds of millions into their pieces.

Isn't that ridiculous?

>>476842
Look like we have to put you down now

>>476847
That would make sense now

>>476847
The bird things seem to be the actual "angels".

The robots / cyborgs are Virtues, they don't seem to be actual angels(?). And like you said, since they have regular zrotlings in uniforms working for them the Virtues seem to be Rotling brains shoved into a mechanical body.

Who would win those angel bots or a DD?

>>476854
DD
these guys seem strong but a DD can topple buildings, push open giant industrial hydraulic doors and carve through steel like it’s hot butter

>>475889
That was so fucking annoying.

>>476847
Uhhhhh, yes? I thought it was obvious.

I haven't bothered to check xitter or r*ddit, but how much do you wanna bet that everyone there has already decided Mel is a lesbian because of that one frame whe she's reading a porn magazine?

>>476868
Also, they will ignore the next scene where she is with romeo.

>>476868
I don't care about Xwitter and will breed Mel with my manly male penis.
