It's not without its charms, but holy frick does it make me miss Sym-Bionic Titan.
Titan made more sense.
Titan had vastly superior pacing.
Titan didn't ignominiously kill off Best Girl in episode 6 as people were still speculating as to what her deal was.
I don't really have much hope left for the show. Some of the steamwork visuals are nice, and I like Winston I guess, but good grief I've lost track of how many times I've thought it zoomed way too fast past something I was just starting to enjoy, and it has all sorts of plot threads that just come to screeching stops. I can only assume Genndy had some long epic planned, got funding for a fraction of the eps, and crammed in as much of his story as he could instead of editing it down to something sensible.

onion girl and lance the dark hedgehog were trash so no?
Found the Cartoon Network exec.
>mindless beast of destruction
>still doesn't want her daughter to play around with dangerous powers
I'm at a loss at how they expect to deal with the Evil permanently. I was almost expecting Morgan to try to talk to Melinda again.
I like the show because the animation looks cool and I like cool animation
This. Unicorn is definitely the most tonally confusing of Genndy's shows, but I'm still enjoying the ride because the visuals and aesthetic are just so cool. I also appreciate having another kids' cartoon with adult leads, and I'm REALLY happy that Winston wasn't such an afterthought like I initially feared he'd be. Now Dimitri, on the other hand...
>Now Dimitri, on the other hand...
Why are people still acting like Dimitri was supposed to get focus or was special the way Emma is? He's PROBABLY one of the Reawakened, but you guys have been acting like he was supposed to be a really prominent character. Emma's possession is the only one that got fricked up.
i think people just like him cause hes fun and wanna believe
t. like him cause hes fun and i wanna believe
>kids' cartoon
Sorry, it's on Adult Swim.
Technically it airs on CN and was made exclusive for that channel at the beginning.
It was created to air on CN, if it was made for Adult Swim Edred would actually be allowed to stab people
you think maybe they'll get edgier after the fact next season or will it just stay a misplaced kids' show?
>no swearing
It won't make a difference, Genndy will never fully commit.
They want part of Adult Swim to be slotted for teens so I don't think the rating will change much.
I think this is a good thing in all honesty. We need more cartoons that aim older than the usual 6-11 crowd but not quite part of the hardcore adult crowd.
I just wish cartoon network wasn't too pussy to premiere shows like this on the main brand first.
I finally watched it and caught up
And i dont think its very good at all
Dexter and Samurai Jack are good
But new Samurai Jack and this are kinda crap
Makes me wonder how good Genndy is
Watch Primal
Why the frick did you skip Primal?
>drawn like popeye and 7 dwarves
>animated with the motion of ren&stimpy
>it's super high stakes serious you guys
>but not in the facetious south park way
I feel like I'm being made fun of somehow, like genndy did it just to troll everyone.
That's what I've been saying, but then everyone says I have no taste in animation. The visuals are drastically at odds with the tone
I'm pretty sure the people who say you have no taste think Gargoyles and Avatar are good shows. The art is shit.
Fang won
Fang won btw
You understand composition more than they do, simple as. Even if it's just your intuition. But next to nobody is classically trained in the arts anymore so there's no use in trying to discuss the technical reasons. They couldn't really tell you in academic terms why they think it's good in the first place.
This! Genndy is a ducking hack and clearly doesn't understand the basics.
To me that's part of the appeal
>Not liking Popeye and Snow White Dwarves
I think you just have shit taste
Are you perhaps moronic?
Most people into Fleischer and Disney tend to be moronic. Mooregay exposed this fact.
This bait is frickin weak, man
Mooregay is one of our best schizos.
You've gotta stop talking yourself up bro
It's a show that feels like a stream of consciousness. None of it is hard to understand but a bunch of stuff just happens in a continuous thread and a lot of it just seems like time filler. I also feel they should lean more into the bodysnatching thing as it is by far the most interesting part of the premise. Their mission to kill the generic evil, while necessary to have a plot goal and action, just isn't as compelling in comparison. Integrating the ideas by making the botched soul transfer more of a hindrance to their goal would make everything feel more coherent.
the big bad evil thingie feels kinda generic. Youd expect it to be something like aku
It really does suck, doesn't it? With the Fox you could tell yourself that there was some sort of interesting plan and motive. With Auto you could do the same.
Now they're both dead and we're left with The Evil, which is Evil, and does Evil Things, and will destroy everything (even time itself) because of how Evil it is.
Jesus Christ.
Nice animation but the writers need to eat these scripts. Dry.
>Nice animation but the writers need to eat these scripts. Dry.
there are times in the writing where it seems like it's going somewhere interesting and then nopes out and does a tangent. that said it's still enjoyable.
We actually don't know who/what the Evil really is but it's most likely Morgan
No shit.
Doesn't make any of this enjoyable because it's just manifesting random evil for evil's sake.
>but good grief I've lost track of how many times I've thought it zoomed way too fast past something I was just starting to enjoy, and it has all sorts of plot threads that just come to screeching stops
Definitely my main gripe with the show, too much time passes in between the fights and obstacles while new characters are introduced and it keeps piling up but never feels exactly resolved. Otto's dead but they're in the cosmic realm now, Scotland Yard pursues unicorn, tipped off and they find June.
It doesn'tcome together cohesively and in a way it's a bit disappointing because I'm enjoying the show otherwise.
With the finale only getting 22 minutes it's obvious shit like what happened with Otto is being saved as a hook for season 2.
Probably, I don't see them resolving whatever's happening in the cosmic realm until s2 either. I just wish we got more scotland yard shenanigans while they were still London.
Mabe the Fairfaxes will get semi-involved and let them use the house as a Unicorn HQ
I like the idea of that, it sounds so silly and fun. They've certainly got the space for it but Emma and the others are wanted in London aren't they?
I love the way his eyes are drawn
his face when im about to rape him
>t.Melinda
thats precicely what throws me oft most about the show. the stupid girly eyes.
No elf wiener, but we did get nipples, so Im good
>Try to draw realistic Emma
>Give her the thinnest lips imaginable and pathetic brows
The artist is Korean so yeah lol they also draw Emmelinda with pale skin
Artist name?

Man, discussion dies off so fast. I hope if we get a season 2 it smooths out some of the wrinkles from s1 so we get more active threads.
but what if...
Someone edit knocked out Winston in there
Here ya go anon
DAMN EDRED WHAT'D YOU DO TO HIM
Her performed every unspeakable act known to man on poor Winston
giwtwm
either possible interpretation works
>Winston returns
>not only he has superpowers now, but actually does something useful and is basically an unofficial member of the Unicorn team
damn, I really expected him to be the comic relief that will be locked somewhere and the final credits scene will be winston waiting in his cell in his werewolf form.
So this show is basically “what if 1930’s cartoons were anime”?
The problem is this is a show that Genndy clearly wanted to be a globe/time trotting fantasy adventure like Jack, but he's crammed all the plot into one season.
It's rushed beyond belief
>but he's crammed all the plot into one season.
I don't get the impression at all actually, it feels like he's setting up so much shit with the hopes that it'll pay off with a renewal.
Let Copernicus pet the cat.
There's so much going on it comes off as a bit messy, I think scaling back might've been a better choice.
What the frick did he do to the fox for it to look like that lol
>What the frick did he do to the fox for it to look like that
That elf dick hit different
this is the edredsister thread now
Praise be to the Elf. Forever may he be lewed and loved
A whole bunch of fricking shit has happened but it adds up to nothing. The finale's going to be about The Evil trying to erase time itself or something, but that's a problem that arose from The Evil cramming itself into Seng's eyes in episode 9; it's a brand-new situation that doesn't really have anything to do with anything that came before.
It's a brand new situation because Unicorn never fricked up as hard as they've done now by letting it get into Seng.
But it has nothing to do with Otto or what The Evil was doing in that jungle, or what the fox lady was doing or why she was doing it. The only thing we know about her is that she isn't The Evil.
I view the situation and events like this:
>At some point before the attack on Copernicus, Fox becomes a servant of the evil.
>Fox and Otto become partners. Maybe she shared cosmic powers like he shared robots. They do occult magic together combined with robot technology.
>Fox dies or is purified whatever by Edred's sword.
>After that, the Evil jumps into Otto and keeps doing occult things combined with robot technology.
>Tracking the Evil, Merlin meets Rakshasa in the jungle.
>After kililng Otto, the Evil jumps into Merlin.
>After confronting Merlin, the Evil jumps into Seng and through him, the cosmic realm.
Looking back I retract my previous statement. The frickup wasn't letting Seng get corrupted. It was over once Merlin got taken.
No, don't make excuses.
It's Genndy's brilliant way of ending the season without answering a single Goddamn thing about the story.
Should have been like the Justice friends: just a group of people hanging out, who happen to be extraordinary.
I like that it doesn't make sense
It reminds me of outlandish plots from Tezuka manga
The character writing makes up for the insane plot anyway
>The character writing makes up for the insane plot anyway
Yes, the great character writing.
Like June the fox tearfully crying "what will become of me?" making us all wonder what her deal was, and then she was just frickin' dead.
Or Otto weirdly detached reaction to everything around him, his betrayal of June, his talk about how it felt like Winston was something he would ONE DAY build, making us all wonder what his deal was, and then he was just frickin' dead.
Genndy is a hack, who would have guessed
>Or Otto weirdly detached reaction to everything around him, his betrayal of June, his talk about how it felt like Winston was something he would ONE DAY build, making us all wonder what his deal was, and then he was just frickin' dead.
Otto's talk about Copernicus makes me suspect episode 10 will involve time shenanigans, and they're going to go back to before Otto was killed. We're going to get another closed loop.
Neither of the two things you are getting autistic about are character writing. Those two are blatant part of the "plot" which anon did not praise anyway.
I enjoy Unicorn and am still very invested in it
But is does have the same problems that Genndy's shows often have: it seems like he wants certain things to happen, but doesn't put enough thought into how they happen.
He wants Winston to be a werewolf, has him randomly get bitten by some guy on the ocean
He wants there to be an elf war, doesn't develop either faction
He wants a Rakshasa so one just shows up and becomes an important side character.
It worked with his more episodic shows but you need to keep things coherent in a longer narrative or things will seem jarring and out of place
I just really hope that The Evil gets a name besides The Evil. Surely Genndy's not so uncreative that he can't flesh out his main antagonist, especially since we've already established that it's just Morgan's ghost or something.
Genndy has to fill the other seasons with something, anon.
Been enjoying Unicron, but it really does feel like Gendy crammed a lot of stuff into less episodes because the network was only willing to give him 10 or so.
Lots of weird transitions between plot beats, Seng is honestly super underdeveloped
are more seasons confirmed? I thought this was just gonna be a mini series.
Not confirmed, but Genndy says if he did have them UWE would have four seasons to wrap things up.
honestly it feels like he put four seasons of plot into this one season, and with how WB is currently I don't think this is getting another season, at worse this might just get removed for tax reasons after it finishes airing
>Seng is honestly super underdeveloped
Both Seng AND Alfie. I actually thought that armored dude was gonna be Seng at first. Also, is anyone else bothered by the other members physically having their bodies sucked into the Cosmic Realm instead of just their souls/consciousness? How does that work? And what will come of Adult Alfie if he’s somehow inside his child body? I feel like the writers didn’t really think this through.
It's to allow ALL porn...
but really adult bodied Alfie is hot as he is, and glad there's version of him that makes the smut less of an issue.
The knight is Seng, but the reincarnation in Alfie.
Honestly Unicorn's reincarnation is really confusing because at first it seems it's the same souls being reawaken with the memories, like Seng and Edred, with the implication being because they're so young it didn't go perfectly, same with Emma, though later it's a split personality so they're mean to basically just be spirits put into hosts?
It's honestly super confusing.
>Also, is anyone else bothered by the other members physically having their bodies sucked into the Cosmic Realm instead of just their souls/consciousness? How does that work?

pretty sure it's handwaved as magic, but yeah it's a bit confusing and really feels like they had many ideas that needed at least 2 seasons but put it all into one.
>that needed at least 2 seasons
No, they just needed GOOD writers.
Both are impossible for this show. Why would anyone write for this show?
>Why would anyone write for this show?
Idunnolol
I honestly anticipated it being yet another one of many of "those shows".
Amphibia and Owl House were way better though.
Change your pants
What are "those shows"?

Winston's naked for nearly an entire episode. Let the man flex.
What a cute, lovable scamp
In 9 episodes I care more about Unicorn than the 10 episodes I watched from Titan. It was completely unremarkable besides the robot wanting to date an underage girl.
>anon wasn't affected by the Lance backstory episode
you lie
it was pretty cliche
>It was completely unremarkable besides the robot wanting to date an underage girl.
The robot was also young, thus "underage" is a silly term to throw around.
And Lana and Lance were kino, frick you.

This episode was actually good, or rather, it's not as tedious and stalling for time as often as the prior episodes.
And it's the second to last episode
Jesus Christ, really? Next episode is the last?
I had some small sliver of hope left, but goddamn, there's no way to turn this trainwreck into a solid story with only one episode left.
It's fun watching this show's downfall.
>Second-to-last episode
>A minute spent watching Merlin and the Rakshasha play "chess"
I also noticed how strangely sluggish it was in that scene.
of the season or series? because it feels like it could be either
also why does it feel this show's whole vibe is making you question and anticipate then not really answering or paying it off. Like the fox who was she what was she is the beast melinda's mom or did it devour her? just a few in a long list of wtf moments that never got paid off due to the pacing and weirdnesss
Once again, a big thank you to drawanon.
I think they should frick
Anyone else have a phobia of oiks?
A phobia of oinks? What for?
It’s a valid phobia. I have one as a pet, and I’m positive he’s planning some kind of world domination.
The ending to the newest episode made me giggle. Also Betty Boop girl is super cute.
Gettin' real tired of you fox frickers.
I'm of the opinion genndy should stick to action/comedy and not bother trying to juggle romance/family style plots. They're clearly not his forte and feelings are something a lot of media fricks up in general. He should have stuck to his strengths. Adding emotional beats without committing proper time to them is just bogging down the content. None of the themes get enough devotion as a result. It seems like he struggles to be coherent enough as it is just with action and adventure themes. I have some experience in the field and I think a story like this would be absolute torture to try and write in 9 episodes. I wouldn't willingly subject myself to trying that.
He sometimes seems to lose interest in doing series plots and starts doing jokes. After the excessive "this is the worst possible threat ever for all time" line from Merlin, the muscial crash reaction shots went on so long they became comical, especially since it ended on Copernicus, who does not have a facial expression.
The same thing happened in one of the pirate ship epsiodes in Primal season 2; it suddenly started doing comedy beats.
He seems heavily distracted in general. We spent an entire flashback about a cool fight in the jungle vs ottos forces, with no apparent rhyme or reason. Only to find that the evil, which had been almost defeated already, possessed Merlin for the first time ever somehow. The logic is bizarre at best and nonexistent at worst. Then juggle that with the intersecting subplots of romance love triangles, flashbacks about characters trying to develop them. And now the cosmic realm, where original Seng was seen running off into the distance in like episode 2 never to be seen again. It's all just loose ends and being distracted. Unicorn Loose Ends Eternal.
>Unicorn Loose Ends Eternal.
Guys, we just got the best fan-name for the show.
I was watching ep 9 with a friend and she said they're laying it on so think with Emmelinda and Winston that you can taste that something bad is going to happen to them. She also thought the puppies line was a death flag.
I had this thought in the last thread. Now that he's a dog, he's gonna age in dog years while in the space zone and he'll be impossibly old. It'll be like Spear having sex for the last time. He'll get his puppies he's just never going to see them.
Oh she doesn't think something's gonna happen next ep, she's kind of the same mind here that there's not enough time.
>A Love's Last Light was really about Emma and Winston
I'd hate it, but I'd hate it more if Merlin doesn't do some last minute magic to soften the blow for those two.
>the Victorian societal implications of Emma coming back pregnant after running off in an apparent schizophrenic fit and becoming a wanted criminal in London
That's going to be brutal for everyone.
>>the Victorian societal implications
I know we need to consider all that, but this world is far more progressive than that. Female mayor and multi-racial culture and all. The steam punk setting sort of implies that it's a whole new time line that embraced technology over religious phobias.
i dont give a frick

I'm surprised by the number of Edred lewds we've been blessed with. He might even be the second most popular Unicorn character on Paheal. When's it Emma's turn?
>When's it Emma's turn?
When she gets redesigned to be attractive.
She's a beauty. Cinemaphile continues to have shit taste.
Emma is a cutie, and I say this as one who prefers Melinda's design.
I think she's hot.
I like her as a character but iust don't find her attractive. would draw her fricking edred again but idk about something focused on her
Lot of fujos in this thread..
We own these threads
I hope its not bed edit of Edred and Merlin so help me....
Kinda off-topic, but this reminded of smut noveI I think I read some where on pixiv that someone was doing was about muscular middle-age elf guy fricking a much younger cute demon girl, I forgot where....
I was reminded of Beren and Luthien as in royal elf loves human and accepts exile and lifespan reduction, except the genders and skills are reversed.
Ugghhh...that sounds like a certain manga after giba-chan, well I think I where they got the inspiration from, DO NOT READ ITS NOT FOR FRAIL HEARTED
gimme
>https://files.catbox.moe/ydoajb.jpg
I don't remember the name...but I do remember it had an english tag demon girl on it. I think the writier had one or 2 chapters started on it, the first initial chapter was pretty good, it was about some violent elf barbarian swaering revenge on all demons but then got saved by a innocent demon so he decides to frick her instead
waitaminate I thinks it had gentle demon in the title or something...
His weakest show
That would be everything besides Dexter
Both UWE and SBT suck shit.
gonna draw edred in a loose outfit and heels
i like how edred kind iof acts like a big brother to seng
Anyone got that image of Edred with all of Dmitri's magic stuff flying out of him with him going "What's wrong with this body"?
Not the brap one, the other one
Thanks anon, god bless
So Seng's rambling about his limbs disapearing meant nothing, I suppose? It was all just because of the fart bubble which real purpose was to allow Emma to yet again one-shot the monster of the week?

Explain to me in academic terms why I should?
Because it just proves Unicorn gays are slack jawed idiots
More it proves you're still seething that Genndy is in the industry and your piss-stained ass isn't. You deserve mockery.
Will he get his happy ending?
Yes. With me.
Back off he’s mine!!!
Nuh uh
I believe in you anon
Mr. Cinemaphile champion incoming?
Imagine the sheer seething and malding from industrycuck if he wins.
I'm nominating him!
I really, really, wanna see what he’d go if a UWE character got into the tournament. Especially since he seethes when 2000s characters make it in, every year.
Lol no Winston has a better shot at making it in
cuckston
This. I was so hype when Episode 8 revealed that Winston hadn't lost himself completely. I really do hope he has a good ending, preferably with Emma but that’s not very likely.
Oh that reminds me, how would nominating the trio work? Coul we hypothetically nominate Melinda, Emma and Emmelinda all as seperate entries?
I think just Emma (pre- AND post-awakening) and Melinda (the Grey DeLisle one) is enough distinction. Just two separate characters.
Those lips were made to wrap around elven wiener.
Or werewolf rocket.
British werewolf is the best character
Frick everyone else, let him have his own show
>British werewolf is the best character
Look at 'im go.
The problem with this show is that it feels like the last season of a show we never watched
It's not the most empty, shallow and edgy show ever but generally shows become like that after we got to meet the characters and grow comfortable with them
Last episode they showed how legolass met phoenix and I feel better about them after watching it, why did they wait 9 episodes for that? It was 9 episodes of watching them fight non stop
>Last episode they showed how legolass met phoenix and I feel better about them after watching it, why did they wait 9 episodes for that?
I think the intention was the viewer was supposed to question Edred's word and see him as an entitled prig at the start of the series. He's in denial that Melinda's changed, he let her fall into dangerous situations because she's supposed to be capable of handling them herself, he yells at her when she gets things wrong, etc. But then he just gets sadder as the season progresses when Emmelinda really doesn't remember/doesn't want to talk about it when she does, he has to see her prefer another man, and then FINALLY in ep 9 he's like "yeah this isn't Melinda this is someone else entirely". He's finally, reluctantly, acknowleding that whatever this change is it's likely permanent. And then you get the flashback (which is probably going to continue in the next episode) and you see he was (probably) telling the truth and that they really did love each other.
But they're lovey-dovey in the prologue.
Ok yeah I forgot about the prologue. Then the flashback is about turning up the angst. Now the viewer actually feels bad for him as he sexily angsts without a shirt on. Edred's reflecting on their relationship for what could be a few different reasons.
>The problem with this show is that it feels like the last season of a show we never watched
Right it feels like they've crammed quite a lot into the last few episodes, including some development and interactions between the characters that probably would helped if introduced a bit earlier throughout the show.
The first two episodes are way too sluggish, and then the next two cover the same beats as each other for the most part.
I don't mind the first two starting off slow as it's setting some of the story but out of the two I think ep1 desperately needed some better pacing.
She's getting sent straight to the asylum
Which tf2 merc should join Unicorn and help fight The Evil for eternity?
Spy, hands down.
I guess that police inspector will come back in episode 10. He fricking better for how much screentime he's gotten and how little he's mattered so far.
He's gonna point Emma towards the Reawakened
I'M COMING!
>tfw your daughter disappears on the day of her wedding after having some sort of mental breakdown, she disappears for a few weeks and suddenly reappears by crashing through your cieling and promptly has an orgasm while screaming about the cosmic realm
They're gonna lock Emma in the attic lmao
hearing a betty boop lookaline screaming that was disturbingly hot and i hate myself for it.
I spent like half an hour replaying those few seconds over and over when the episode aired
Don't know what it is about the way she says the line but it drove me crazy. Absolute diamonds
tf r u on the way she screams is horryfing
Both got mogged by anime so it all evens out in the end.
Winston is dumb as frick and I love him
Are you Edredgays femanons?
I think we're all femanons here
Winston gays and Edred gays
Neither an Edredgay or an femanon but based on my observations over the years, Edred is the type of character that appeals to the females. If he were to appeal to gay men, he'd be buffer, have slightly different hair, and have facial hair.
I think there are some guys here who want to frick Edred but there are def more girls
He’s so dainty~
I wonder if OG Edred went through a similar goofy phase when he was younger; sometimes I try to picture Edrimitri reactions on OG Edred's face.
I need to violate his cervix
as a gay man edred is lame
Man or woman, gay or straight, the characters are lame
im a man and even im an Edredgay
the guy is just universally juicy i tell ya
keep telling yourself that
its ok if you have no taste anon
one day youll understand
Straight man here I shitpost against and for Edred because it is funny
The reason UWE's on [adult swim] is because Genndy's not taking any chances getting fricked over again by clueless dipshit executives that still run CN
pretty sure the actual reason is CN wants to be a literal toddler channel in that they're aiming that young with their shows now
distinction without difference. Even without toddler shows, Unicorn would be swamp-assed by TTG.
Fricking good
Let's just forget that CN sucked his dick hard on Dexter and SJ, no they can't be trusted because they ducked up one show no one even cared about.
Errrrr wrong, when the show first started it was a little boring and felt like a huge step down from primal...the show is actually good and if u don't like it by now you just have shit taste, yes the show has problems but it's absolutely beautiful and one of the only good cartoons past 2009 that doesn't suck
>yes the show has problems but it's absolutely beautiful and one of the only good cartoons past 2009 that doesn't suck
Are you a zoomer?
The opposite; he honestly thinks pre 2009 was a good era for cartoons.
i can fix him i dont care if he calls me melinda when he cums in me
Edging Edred until he is a begging, shivering mess
I like the show, the art and concepts are really cool, but the pacing is all over the place and the story doesn't even really make sense.
Why do they all need to "reincarnate throughout time" when they're all shown to be immortal/long lived anyway? Merlin was chillin in a basement for 1000 years so we can assume Melinda wouldn't age either, the elves act like no time at all has passed, Copernicus is a robot and Seng is a monk that exists outside of time and space.
It just seems like they did it for the forced plot element of them taking over other people's bodies and getting stuck, which is arguably one of the weakest parts of the show. It just seems so weird they took an oath to keep body swapping throughout the ages and yet literally everyone from their OG times is still just around and completely fine.
>Why do they all need to "reincarnate throughout time" when they're all shown to be immortal/long lived anyway?
Reincarnation rids them from the risk of dying for real during the mission.
I've had someone tell me that Genndy is the greatest living cartoonist before.
His discography is pretty impressive all things considered
In the west it's Tom Moore.
Of course globally it's Miyazaki. It's a cliche but it's true.
I knew this was going to be rushes from the get-go. It's Genndy we're talking about
>stealthily sneaks into bedroom

What would he think of the ways his son is being lusted after?
He'd say that's good son. Back in his day half of the women and a third of the men of the northern and western elves wanted his bussy, not that he's bragging of course.

I know the joke has been run to the ground but we need a it's unicover version
KEK, here yah go anon!
Perfect.
The best part is that if Edred leaves Dimitri is going to wake up and go wtf happened
Gendy sure loves his blue doggos
I feel like the sheer stupidity of some of the writing makes the show more engaging than it has any right to be
wish there was a way for SBT to recover from being a tax write-off
I wish there was a way all of Genndy's shows can be tax write offs.
>more fanart is coming in JUST as the season is about to end
man
which is good because it will be forgotten if not already.
This. I already forgot to change my pants today, let alone Genndy's work.
emma sucks, i fricking hate that b***h
winston was ok, wolf winston is cringe
elf is lame, his backstory plot sucked
the kid is alright
copernicus is cool
merlin is entertaining
the rakshasa is kino
the plot is stupid
This show is the perfect example of why we need niches in modern day media. When you try to please everyone, you please no one.
twilly elfdust
Why is this show so American centric?
American cartoon.
Maybe your country should make their own.
My country can actually depict its diverse population. Everyone in an American cartoon is just a Californian with a different coat of paint.
Yet here you are watching an American cartoon. Curious.
Wasted trips btw.
The show's just wildly inconsistent. Feels frankly amateur 90% of the time, then the remaining 10% feels decently competent. I wonder if that 10% is when Genndy's in the office and doing real work, while the rest of the time he's totally checked out and no one knows what the frick they're doing.
Because the real creators of Sym Bionic Titan Paul Rudish and Bryan Andrews aren't here.
Copium.
Yes Genndy fans are high on that copium.
So did you change your pants yet or are you just sitting in your own piss again, you industry reject?
Fang won. Let it go already.
I like this show and Im having fun watching it!!!!!!! !
Eh. I think it’s veeery average in the enjoyment department. I can almost feel like I am enjoying it for 10 minutes but then something happens and the show takes a different direction and it’s frustrating as frick. I still wish to see how it will end.
Martin Scorsese would absolutely shit on this show. I want him to make Genndy cry.
Massive Scum-Shit-pants.
This. Cinemaphilemblr will never admit it
tumblr has been dead for almost half a decade dude let it go.
The Great Evil will fuse with Emma/Melinda where she will basically become a goddess.
She will have to leave behind Winston, Edred and the others, though.
Weird, unsatisfying, and begging for a second season that I won't want to watch.
Man Samurai Jack really broke some brains here huh
Rightfully so. Shit was trash.
Mindbroken.
Between Symbionic, Samurai Jack and Primal showing that Genndy isn't really great at story driven shows, the fanbase dismissing everyone that says anything negative as a singular namegay, and the art style being a confusing mix of anime, furry bait, and Fleischer, I just can't get into it. It reminds me of Boo Boo Goes Wild or Thief and the Cobbler, a masterwork done by an extremely talented artisan that's at the peak of their field but it is ultimately ONLY for the guy making it and we're all just along for the ride.
This is why I hate these threads. They destroyed conversation with their boogeyman.
homosexual, you are really fricking new if you don't recognize him by now.
See this is exactly what I mean. This is the first Unicorn thread I've posted in in months. I usually sleep through the thursday airings and use the toonami airings to make snacks. The most I've watched of the show was last night's episode on mute and even then it was because the Street Fighter 6 servers are down.
But I MUST be your samegay because I dare question the genius of the show?
What was wrong with Symbionic Titan?
I can only speak for myself but I think it spent too much time on episodic monster of the week fights and generic John Hughes high school cloches and not enough time with the much more interesting myth arc. Like, in the time Lana is spending crying about how there isn't a vegan option for school lunch a few more thousand people on her homeworld probably died. Genndy set up an interesting premise and then couldn't get away from that premise fast enough.
As a fish-out-of-water premise I think the stuff done in the "exile" setting (earth) is going to predominate, and the alien planet stuff is the main plot for the whole series which will only see a handful of major movements in the whole series. Since there was only one season it doesn't spend much time on it.
If anything I think UWE is an unsatisfying jumble at least partly because it isn't (can't?) take the time to let the characters "stretch" in danger-of-the-week style episodes.
>As a fish-out-of-water premise I think the stuff done in the "exile" setting (earth) is going to predominate, and the alien planet stuff is the main plot for the whole series which will only see a handful of major movements in the whole series. Since there was only one season it doesn't spend much time on it.
I understand that. I merely disagree that it was a good decision. Like, there used to be this old image about shows that got their endings cut prematurely and SBT was on it as "galaluna will never be freed" and to me it always rang hollow because the point of the show never actually seemed to be to free galalaluna, it was to do 1980s school dance nonsense.
And for the record this isn't just a Genndy thing. I think Young Justice suffers from this problem as well where they seem to want to have their cake of a myth arc with deep lore and a looming but then also want to faff about doing teenage relationship drama bullshit.
nta but I feel like the appeal of "teenagers saving the world"-type stories is getting farther and farther away from me. Still, that doesn't mean Unicorn comes off the better story or anything no, that's still a great waste of potential in itself.
There better be a season 2 on the way, I need at LEAST another 10 episodes of wereston
symbionic titan had a fantastic first season, literally god tier. what happened? it got cancelled. frankly if i wrote pure gold for a first seasons and it still got canceled ill make my next projects have slow seasons 1's
>symbionic titan had a fantastic first season, literally god tier
People say this but then when I ask if they remember anything about the show it's just the redhead with the square ass twerking for the square robot.
I remember the robot character being surprisingly full of personality in general when I thought he'd be a "bleep bloop this action will result in a 12% increased chance of success for our mission" kind of thing.
Lance is a edgy grump played straight but that's fine it didn't become cringy.
Octus and Kimmy's weird relationship was a highlight, but the show had a lot of awesome things going for it. It just had a fun-in-general pastiche on High School life, with things like the the dorky-but-fun kids that were into Ilana and Lance, the "but I was meant to be the main character!" ex-boyfriend of kimmy, the jocks, etc.
The giant robot battles were kino more often than not.
The villains were interesting and fun to watch - you WANTED to know what had happened to the main villain to make him turn evil. It seemed pretty clear that the Earth Force was linked to Lance's dad, possibly run by him, and you wanted to know more.
It was fun, and it seemed like all the parts fit together and there was some larger picture.
Unicorn is a stream of consciousness in comparison. I no longer feel like there's a big picture where everything we've seen is a piece of a puzzle. Stuff like "Otto, the dude that built all the robots in this steampunk setting" don't matter for more than an ep. I'll watch it through to the end for the animation, but it's not in the same league as Titan for writing... and Titan was well-written enough but hardly a 10/10 in that category either. It's just that Unicorn is down at like a 3/10 (with those few points entirely in terms of some characters being enjoyable as long as you don't want things to make sense).
Both Titan and Unicorn suck shit for different reasons.
Weak cohesion is probably Unicorn's greatest weakness
I'd like to imagine some snafu behind the scenes but it may just be that Genndy's decades long idea might just not have been one of his best
Where I diverge in opinion is that even if the bigger picture frustrates me with inefficient plot pacing and strange character utilization I've still enjoyed all of it episode to episode
I'm honestly super curious at the notion of a hypothetical season 2 and where it could possibly pick up from whatever ending the finale leaves us on, as it was presumably written to be a series conclusion in the event of not being renewed
Before the final blow is struck, the Evil makes a gamble to release Morgan to use her as bait. While Unicorn is distracted, the Evil tries to kidnap Melinda and become one with her again. Morgan intervenes, and it manages to capture only Emma instead.
What the hell does that stand for
Look it up, you'll be amazed.
Stuff like June and Otto are so utterly baffling. I truly cannot comprehend the rationale for how they came and went
While I can't say for SURE until the finale, the fact that there's one more episode to wrap up everything barring a surprise cliffhanger and renewal, such things seem unlikely to get more screentime
ok who the frick is Mooregay?ive been here for years but somehow never saw the man himself, only mentions of him like hes some kinda woodland monster
Some guy who writes schizo essays about sincerity or has AI generate them for him.
He makes a few good points occasionally but he's incredibly far off the deep end and ends up sounding moronic.
Holy crap
genndy said no nipples
bro got his nipples taken away
cant have shit in detroit
first his girl, now his nipples
And yet nipples got sneaked in anyway.
Based.
This show has quite a few animation flaws lol, there's a whole shot of Edred in the cosmic realm with his shirt back on
edredsisters have infiltrated the crew itself
What does he have against guy elf nipples? I mean we always get women elf nipples, men elf nipples are good too.
>delete the nips
Are you allowed to say this? I know you're trying to stand up for Western animation, but too far, man.
>no nipples
>cloaca is okay
Come on now Genndy.
crewmember who posted said it wasn't a censorship thing
I could see this being a stylistic choice. Old cartoons didn't have nips, he shouldn't either.
But equally, that drawing didn't have them in the right place. They were slightly off. Hard to stay consistent if you're not drawing the nipples in the right spot each time.
>Hard to stay consistent if you're not drawing the nipples in the right spot each time.
that was basically the reason they gave, it'd be difficult to keep them consistent. edred's wandering nipples.
>it'd be difficult to keep them consistent.
That makes me sad but as an artist, I understand the struggle.
Nah they just couldn't get approval to put "no homo" in the credits and genndy ain't no queer
its ok ill hold them for him
>cloaca
wait what?
edred's cloaca
There's at least one shot that was left in where he's got nipples. Shame he couldn't have them at all.
It's bad enough woman can't have their nips out but we're in an age where even men can't go nips out. Sad time line we live in.
Is that Clip paint studio? shit I can start animating professionally.
I don't know but I do think you can animate in CSP
You can, it's just not very intuitive
I knew that too but i was never told the real pros use it for their shows, it's always Adobe crap
Drawgay here, and that looks like Toonbom to me, though you can animate in CSP! Some pros use CSP (I've seen a lot use it for Storyboarding or rough animation, but you can make some clean work if you want!) . Get EX if you want unlimited frames (and I also suggest if you don't got EX just wait for a sale). Hope the best in your endeavours anon!
i use sai to animate
>tfw I wanna try designing Melindas in other eras but unless her host is wearing an especially bulky outfit it's all just black dresses or catsuits
man
iirc Genny said in the ama that unicorn have reincarnated about ten times already so all of the past ones have not been shown. You have to think outside medieval europe, anon, which would get interesting quick. Melinda in a kimono, Melinda in indigenous arctic dress, Melinda wearing an african tribal dress with beads, the possibilities are endless.
Theres quite a few shows that replaced white characters from their initial pilots and concept art. The most recent being robot unicorn eternal.
Anyone ever keep track?
>You have to think outside medieval europe
I was actually, specifically more 21st century looks. Melinda just seems to turn everything solid black and covers up any exposed skin.
>kimono
I mean, it'd basically be the same silhouette she has now, except more kimono-shaped.
>I mean, it'd basically be the same silhouette she has now
Sorry not silhouette lol that was the wrong word. I meant it'd just be another solid black outfit that completely covers her. But I think combining her black fire magic thing with different fashions throughout the world/time instead of just turning every outfit into the same thing would be fun.
Honestly because Genndy has said he's open to exploring past reincarnations makes me think Melinda and Edred are going to get a happy ending. I think if it was a downer or even just on the bleak side I wouldn't really be interested in watching other Unicorn groups. ESPECIALLY if Edred and Melinda are happier.
>Melinda and Edred are going to get a happy ending.
that's understandable, because that's not Emma and Winston... but I love them. And even Alfie. These current protags are fun. I'm sure the older ones are fine, but I don't think we get enough of the Original Warriors to really know who they are. At least in THIS season. I'm not against it, but still leaves me missing these guys.
I see. I think the 60s and 70s fashion would work well for her. I suspect Genndy won't be able to resist reincarnating Unicorn back then just to put them in bell bottom pants.
>inbt Saturday Night Fever Edred
But Winston wouldn't be apart of those stories now would he?
You created a universe where the side characters are more lovable than the main ones... Yes Edred is great, but this whole story is about how THIS one time they all jump into new bodies, they're changing and learning. If we see stories from their past, we already know what their future will entail.
It's actually pretty embarrassing that swearing is so taboo in America when every other country on Earth (ahem, Japan) has mature themes, swearing, etc socially acceptable by age 7.
>no june way barefoot art
what's the point
Edredsisters, if you were left alone with the elf, what would you do to him?
pretend I'm melinda
Make him my elf husband
just ask him if he wants to talk about how he's been feeling
That cap's not as funny without the filename
Ask him if he's a nutcracker.
rape
what wouldnt i do
Fondle his ears
worse than rape
thats what i was gonna say!
I'd do sexual things to him that would set feminism back a thousand years and MRAs screech in pure terror.
This is the energy all women should strive for. Ladies, I'm proud of us.
next week is the last time we see our boy...
We might be getting a second season but who knows if we'll be seeing this version of Edred anymore.
Yep, sadly we will never see Edrimitri again unless the maybe second season picks up right after the end of the first.
I think Genndy said he has 4 seasons planned for this group and if there's more renewals after that he'll go back to other reincarnations.
>I think Genndy said he has 4 seasons planned for this group
A good writer could do it within 2, but in all fairness those are practically unicorns (heh heh) in themselves these days
Animation never had good writers. It's a trash medium.
This is why Martin Scorsese can't stand most of animation. It's as gimmicky as a Marvel movie, not a real art form.
Quit samegayging.
The height difference alone here is amusing
>Emma darling, first I must say sh-she overpowered me, she won't keep her hands off me! I do not consent!!
Most engaging but awkward throuple in fiction
moar liek eunuch horn
why is the fricking elf so appealing to women i dont get it
The elf is the only appealing character in the show
Anon, imagine a girl with the most amazing body who is so fiercely in love with you that it spans across thousands of years, gets immensely jealous over any other woman that would come between the two of you and constantly makes big puppy dog eyes because you won't return your love with her.
his puppy eyes are so hot
>Those miscolored areas in between his eyelashes
Why does this show have so many errors?
that's eyeshadow
His voice acting really helps sells it too, he's probably the best voiced character out of the main cast. Winston is pretty good too.
artist name?
>https://twitter.com/BeequinoxArt
Lots of porn (not UWE-related) and have only done two Unicorn pics.
Long hair, really emotional and is honest about his feelings even when selfish, respect boundaries even when rejected. Genndy gets it.
Anyone else think it was kind of janky that Emmelinda getting Copernicus killed is what made Edred suddenly start acting better towards her? Even at the start of ep 5 he was still like "b***h can handle herself".
No, Copernicus getting killed was when they all realized the situation was megafricked, and interpersonal disagreements were shelved in lieu of fixing him.
>Even at the start of ep 5 he was still like "b***h can handle herself".
Because Melinda has always insisted she was a b***h who could handle herself, and Edred was doing everything to lure Emmelinda out of her "amnesia".
>That's when the characters realized the situation is too serious from Edred and Emm to keep arguing
That's when the writers arbitrarily stopped having as much arguing dialogue. There is no plan, they're unlikely to remember what happened four episodes earlier, there's one thing happening after another.
>arbitrarily
magnific**t anon
Here yah go anon! I had so much fun with this request!
Just in case the jannies sweep this up for booty on display, I salute you
Jejeje, bueno
I feel like not making the frosting black like Melinda’s hair was a missed opportunity
Thank you for fulfilling my request drawanon!
Special thanks to the femanons here for proving that Cinemaphile is not a misogynistic incel cave, and that being a chud is equal oppurtunity! We are so woke
theyre all just gay men anon
Edredsisters how will you respond to this devastating accusation? Will you, post breasts perhaps? (just a suggestion)
fine, just for (you) anon
I think those are the Winstongays.
I'm bi, anon.
Oh. Carry on then.
*PLAP PLAP PLAP PLAP PLAP PLAP*
anon wtf are you talking about
Those damn twitteratis and redditors are always going on and on about how Cinemaphile is this den of vile racist chauvinistic filth. Im pleased that the existence of women and non-white ethnicities in this here board is proving them wrong. Bravo Cinemaphile!
This pic is not loading send another one
my good Black, Cinemaphile has always been the most racially, sexually and politically diverse board
the "everyone here is a NAZOID" or "everyone here is CinemaphileMBLR" are both just memes made by either side, unable to see their own kin yet acutely aware of those different to them
this is a non issue and i dont give a frick what twitter says,Cinemaphile is united by one thing and one thing only- we all fricking hate comics and cartoons
>we all fricking hate comics and cartoons
This is why I come here.
>this place has always been Heckin diverse
Way to out yourself newbie
Cinemaphile has always been full of gays, that makes us diverse in the new lingo.

Genndy has lost his touch, Goddamn.
He lost his touch a while ago. He is now a hack.
Have a good nap?
More like he regained it, all kino
Gay
Very
>evil needs seng to get to the ghost zone even though the fox can go there whenever
they didn't think at all when making this
More like it needed a way to yoink Unicorn/Emmelinda in
I assume the Fox's connection wasn't strong enough. Merlin or Rakshasa might have served the purpose but may have had the power or knowledge to lock off that access even while under attack while Alfie was unprepared for the attack
>they didn't think at all when making this
No sir, they did not.
Don't make excuses.
>n-no don't argue with meee
Dude.
This is why Martin Scorsese doesn't respect animators like Genndy.
It's not an argument. They established the Fox as having a connection to the ghost zone. But only by blindsiding Seng was The Evil able to get there. Why? No reason given. You CAN sit there and try to think up reasons, but you're just filling in blanks that were very sloppily left unfilled. The number one criticism of the show is that so much of it feels like unfinished thoughts.
Best to wait for the end of the season before complaining about plot holes. Not that they're likely to be resolved, but you might have a ton more to complain about by then.
Yes. And to add to anon's argument the Evil couldn't even infect the cosmic realm even through Merlin whom was called wizard of the cosmos once. It can be inferred that Seng's connection must be unique even among masters.
>Can be inferred
Well yeah, you are going to have to infer that. You have to infer a LOT in this show, because the creators don't bother explaining half of what's going on.
Who would have guessed the hack is bad at explaining things.
The hack who's getting Primal season 3 and a movie.
Sounds like he's doing better than you.
>what is potential
A miserable pile of secrets.
>The hack who's getting Primal season 3 and a movie.
Rebecca Sugar has enough frick you money to purchase a million dollar mansion, and Seth Rogen and his company still gets plenty work somehow. You think I give a shit?
This. Genndy ain't shit, Sugar and Rogen among others dab on him.
Okay, its evidently more like two people who have certain... allowances.
What are your guys' finale predictions btw? Will we see prime Seng again? It's now or never.
>Will we see prime Seng again?
If we do I bet he shows up near the end of the fight or after all the action or never as it's left to tease another season.
>Will we see prime Seng again?
only Seng's soul maybe if the Evil gets defeated and Copernicus sucks him out of Alfie. If he didn't come in those 20 years while Alfie battled the Evil at least for morale support, then he doesn't need to show up in the finale.
My point is, that I don't give a shit whether or not someone's "doing better" than me when their overall output is still pretty mediocre on average.
That's my point homie. Genndy is mediocre as frick so I don't get why he has so many nuthuggers.
So blind or somethin?
>I don't get why he has so many nuthuggers.
Good connections, and Nostalgia.
Ever notice how these types of posts always pop out in force for a few hours and then die down?
I always found that very interesting.
Where's the lie, homie?
Nowhere, because I'm right and the doomer spam only convinces me I'm even more right than I already was.
>mediocre on average
Even at his lowest Genndy has a more solid track record than good majority of American TV animators.
lewd the elf

Kind of sad, but I hope spamming your coom folder makes you feel a little better. Fang still won btw.
>Fang still won btw.

Ha, knew that'd strike a nerve.
Considering a group activity dedicated to admiring animated females got hijacked into a Reddit popularity contest, hell yes I'm mad at the fricking dinosaur.
Wait so this spam actually is just leftover seethe from ms. Cinemaphile? That's fricking hilarious.
Maybe I should vote for the propane tank this year if last year mindbroke you this hard.
wait you're telling me there's a good chance that this is the guy who's always complaing in ms./mr. Cinemaphile about genndy characters?
Image the amount of seethe generated if Edred or Winston win mr. Cinemaphile
Oh I'll vote Winston 100%.
4 out of 5 of the winners are more conventional waifus lol you're acting like winners like Fang are going to be the norm

I think if people are posting brap pics in these threads, it's proof that neopuritans are shitting up these threads.

>"With a vpn, you can post anywhere you want" he said to himself, out loud.
All I know about Pan Pizza is that he once got into a DM argument with me on Tumblr about how media can be objectively bad (his side was that of subjectivity).
I keep screenshots so I can laugh at them whenever I'm reminded he exists
That's tragic.
he was malding hard
LOL why was he so mad? You didn't like venom or something?
It's been literal years and I don't use tumblr anymore, so I don't really recall.
All I remember is the bit I mentioned earlier in which I stated media can be objectively bad, while still being enjoyable. I remember citing my own favorite movie having objective faults as an example.
I remember YEARS ago sending him am ask only for him to blow up in my face and then immediately delete the post a minute later
I meant that you have those saved.
Cartoon reviewer turns out to be a major league homosexual.
Who would have guessed?
Pan is just upset that he spilled his spaghetti in front of Genndy and Mike Lazzo.
>I owned up to liking big black wiener
Um
What?
You know I'm starting to think all that shit he posted about cartoon moms cheating on their husbands with black guys wasn't just trolling.
It paints a vivid picture, I'll say that much.
He lost his virginity to a black guy who subsequently ghosted him IIRC
Please god let this be true it would be so fricking funny
It gets better; the black guy actually got AIDS from someone else and died.
Owned.
Like his ancestors.
>spammer outs himself as a BBC homosexual
>immediately stops posting
Foot in mouth?
i feel like this show have no idea what wants to do, because every episode is like they putting random ideas on it seeing what works, but most of it are simple not working.
I dont know but this show is like a fanfiction, somewhere theres the actual show with a much better writing, but for some reason we got the fanfiction wrote on a random afternoon on a rush
I'm pretty sure the actual show they're writing for isn't that good, which tells you everything you need to know about the fanfiction.
The show not being rather cohesive is one of the main criticism about the show here actually.
>I dont know but this show is like a fanfiction, somewhere theres the actual show with a much better writing, but for some reason we got the fanfiction wrote on a random afternoon on a rush
So basically the Helluva Boss issue, but with slightly different parameters?
It weirds me out seeing crossover between Unicorn and Helluva Boss discussion. I've seen pics from both posted in each other's threads.
No reason why it would be weird, yet it is kinda weird.
This! So much this; this is basically the new Helluva Boss.
You're out of your mind.
Not this. Not any of this; this is not at all the new Helluva Boss.
So it's the new and different Helluva Boss.
Helluva Boss is far more coherent than Unicorn, and holy shit that's a weird thing to say. HB has some rough edges and there are bits where you go "oh, changed your mind a couple eps later, huh?"
Unicorn is stream of consciousness where all sorts of things show up abruptly or terminate in an unsatisfactory way.
That's kind of why I said there's slightly different reasons behind why they're both wastes of potential, writing wise.
Lol neither of them ever had potential
I thought they did, just that their writers/boarders stuck too much 'to the motions' of everything else to get any real mileage off their ideas. At least HB's art direction/designs is what keeps me watching it.
They never did, they just fooled you into thinking they had any real mileage from their ideas. Sadly common.
I wouldn't call HB a waste. It's an indy production very much driven by a relative newbie to the industry. The lack of polish is to be expected. With Genndy finally getting to air something he's apparently been working on for ages... well you expect coherency from a pro being given free rein with a dream project he's been dabbling with for a while.
Most of his projects never have coherency; it's always throwing shit to the wall and seeing what sticks.
Also Viv isn't indie anymore so she has no excuse either. They're both just hacks.
>Also Viv isn't indie anymore
I was gonna argue that she's still relatively 'indie', but then again the A24 deal popped up in my head and... yeah.
A24 is covering Hazbin I thought, with HB still funded through advertising, crowdfunding and merch
Taking that into account, I'd say she's still kinda indie. I'm still happy she's found success, even if her work became less and less my thing from a writing standpoint (which I could say about a lot of creators, tbf).
See
She has a A24 deal, she got Norman Reedus on her show, she's not indie anymore.
>she's not indie anymore.
I'd say she's "half-indie", sort of like Blumhouse (iirc). Being able to hire Reedus seems more like an increase in budget/connections to me.
Good point.
and Kesha who did va and co-wrote a song.
This is too much.
>and Kesha who did va and co-wrote a song.
Now that's one hell of a callback
No one is truly indie. I learned that with image.
A24 is an independent studio though
>Helluva Boss is far more coherent than Unicorn
Wow that's the most moronic thing I've ever heard someone said, congrats.
You should get used to hearing all sorts of things get listed as being more coherent than Unicorn. It's pretty much as much a collection of half-baked ideas as most of Shirow's lesser-known works. Reminds me a bit of Jodorowsky.
>You should get used to hearing all sorts of things get listed as being more coherent than Unicorn.
So you're going to keep pushing more moronic shit in these threads. Great.
Don't compare a hack like Genndy to people who knew what they're doing. Even 12 OZ. Mouse is more coherent than this shit.
