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 throughout
it says in their site its demographic is 13-24
anyways i found it fairly fun to watch and the animation is spectacular

Reminds me of Invader Zim which I'm sure isn't a coincidence. Invader Zim was so stylish and such a big part of a certain demographic of teenagers back in the day and I wouldn't be surprised if some of them were involved with this.

there 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

Hmmm. 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.

Turns out the third part is chock-full of self-lampooning, like calling out plot armor, the mc's monologuing being heard be everyone else, pointing out how silly things are, or bringing attention to the fact that it's an internet show. It's being done to such a degree that even people on youtube are saying it's too much, some theorizing the meta is going to be relevant to the plot. The durability mechanic is pretty cool, though.

What's also interesting is that Evbo has actually been doing this for years and getting million of views, he went from long stories to sketches and back. The difference with Parkour Civilization seems to be that it broke containment.
He also has an old video somewhat explaining his thought process behind it, it's interesting seeing how it still aligns with his civ series.

it's fun to live in a country where copyright isn't real
if kuon were introduced to the concept it's possible she'd disagree, but still
