you know glitch, the guys that are making the digital circus? well they have another big show that just ended, murder drones, and it's been a very long time since i've seen something so clearly aimed at teenage girls
¥snarky outsider mc seeks to destroy humanity as she struggles with her satano-vampiric possession powers alongside her puppy-brained not-bf and the bad bitches she befriends with whom she ventures into lampooned horror scenarios alternating with badass action scenes while exploring their tragic past with lots of meta humor and nostalgia throughoutit says
in their site its demographic is 13-24
anyways i found it fairly fun to watch and the animation is spectacular

>>33589there definitely is somewhat of a resemblance, although rewatching the first two episodes of zim there's a big difference in how genuinely dumb some characters are and how respulsive the world in general is, whereas MD has a lot more sarcasm and self-deprecation
the author's previous work is pic, which you've probably had youtube suggest to you at some point with its sixteen million views, and it's an obvious precursor is most if not all of its major elements
it even has the crustacean claws the guy likes so much

>>34054Hmmm. There were some parts where the self-lampooning didn't quite land with me, and the "character with dementia regains their memories temporarily" trope isn't something I find particularly touching even if (or because) it's happened to me with my grandma, nor am I the biggest fan of Caine. But the horror was nice and the ending with its foreshadowing is marvelous.
Besides that I recently watched the new viral series of Parkour Civilization, a machinima rather than an animation, which is wholly devoted to Minecraft parkour as a means of combat, of payment, of societal organization and a way of life. It's impressive how far this is taken, one of the best jokes consists of offhandedly stating that a book is "written in parkour" and how the protagonist can thankfully read it. Entirely played straight, there is never any subversion of the premise.
It's predominantly described as a burger shônen: the protagonist is constantly running into challenges where he must learn to outsmart then implement the elements being introduced and has a signature attack that sets him apart from the rest which also happens to be infinitely scalable. Lots of neat little twists and technicalities. But beyond that what really shocks people is how it manages to fit in some fairly strong themes despite being so simple and so ridiculous, when a post said this was 1984 and the New Testament put together I thought they were trolling but it's actually not entirely wrong.
It becomes obvious that part 1 was designed as a self-contained story with a definite end when you compare it to 2 and see that all the exploration of class inequality disappears and is replaced by parkour trials full-time with new progressive additions. Someone described it as fleshing out the power system, I agree with that. Not exactly a must-see, but it's interesting from a writing perspective in how it manages to be as effective as it is while being stripped down to its bare essentials. Definitely earned those tens of millions of views.

>>35423you mean digital circus? well glitch sells a fuckton of merch and puts out more with each episode that airs
according to them that's how they fund things
flashgitz has 39k (almost there) patrons and they sell merch as well so those seem to have their income source well locked down

If something has 70m views and you think it's bad, you probably are wrong and just don't get it. If you get it and don't like it that's another thing, but nothing with 70m views can be bad

>>36925I think that argues that something is good because it's popular, but I'm arguing that it's not bad... So that's factual because if a large amount of people think something is good then you won't be able to convince them that it's bad
