it really wasn’t good, 4C’s direction just didn’t mesh with the show’s tone and direction, so Karakas saying it was meant to be a jumping point for a third season feels delusional. By and large it’s very frustrating how most of the direct anime partnerships [as] has done have been flops. None of the rick&morty anime shorts were any good and I fully expect the series to be more of the same.
christy himself hates the fricking thing. He said in an interview that he was super pumped up because the studio they commissioned did some inbetweens for akira or whatever, but they ended up throwing away like 2 quarters of his storyboards and rejected all the action scenes, because [as]'s gave them two nickels and a half eaten sandwich to make the anime
Until we start seeing Smiling Friends merch I wouldn't call it a "cash cow".
That's inevitable. All the main characters in smiling friends look like they were designed to be marketable plushies as is. It took rick and morty three seasons before they started pumping out merchandise, I'm assuming the same will happen with sf. You'll be seeing glep paintjobs on cars and pim plushies at six flags in approximately 2 years. Smiling Friends is an even more powerful entity than rick and morty ever was because it's A.) Inoffensive "turn ya brain off" comedy and B.) already has a huge pre-established fanbase, + an influx of new fans swarming in droves.
[as] is done with experimenting, they've found their golden goose that will help them make back all the money they lost on post-s3 rick and morty. They're going to give zach and cusack a 10+ season deal if season 2 does well (which it will)

you're being sarcastic right? smiling friends will never be a big show. its targeting a specific audience who likes a specific sort of humor. its not targeting normalc**ts.
Normalgays watch oneyplays. Kids love newgrounds styled cartoons. Smiling Friends is insanely popular on its own, even without the "niche" fanbase backing it. You're delusional if you think smiling friends can only garner a few cult followers
smiling friends is not insanely popular. this train of thought is wishful thinking at best man. its a goofy cartoon that doesn't take itself seriously. i doubt it'll even reach reddit horseman show levels of popularity with normalc**ts.

As the years go by, normalgay's collective sense of humor changes. "le smart depressed nihilist" comedy was popular in 2016, doesn't mean it's popular now. If anything it's just regarded as 'cringe' now, and normalhomosexuals hate being labeled cringe
This is more of a muscular, toned ass than a fat, chunky one, but beggars can't be choosers (especially when it comes to a series that's as dead in the water as this one).
I remember when people would ree and say Karacas would never be into weebshit when they'd see some kid's dumb anime Superjail fanart.
They were only half-right: he's into anime but had some old-school tastes they'd be hating too.
They never were going to regardless. It’s a novelty project that had pretty poor ratings. It’s lucky to have even gotten the special that it did, which should have been used as a conclusion rather than moronic anime studio shit
It already aired on Toonami and everyone hated that it did because Toonami viewers aren’t tuning in to see the slop they see on normal AS
didn't they already frick it up by making a spin off season that was lame?
oh nevermind it was a special. seemed like nobody here liked it though.

I loved ballmastrz, its a shame. Did the series at least end on a good note?
It wrapped up with a finale. Earth wins.
Someone edit the black bars off.
I miss DD so much
I don’t have it saved but I always think of that promo art they did parodying different album covers, it confirmed that DD has a massive bush
>I don’t have it saved
you have failed us
im sorry
i want s3
And I want more lewds of Gaz Digzy's fat chunky ass, but you can't always get what you want.
you can just commission those, or ask ai
BUT YOU TRY SO HARD

I seem to recall the new world order that tells AS what to do didn't think Ballmasterz was worth investing a S3
I wish Demarco would give it enough love to thrive in a Toonami slot instead given all these wannabe anime projects he's been doin as of late
if s3's proposal had a gay tawdry faux cyberpunk/miami vice plot then demarco would pick it up

It only even existed because Mike Lazzo dropped hints he wanted something new from Karacas instead of more Superjail!
Doesn't Birchy want to frick Ace?
Season 1 was so good but it's pretty aimless after that.
They shit the bed and left no way back with the special.
