Good intentions don’t mean much in the face of social incompetence.

Do you not know the definition of cynical? What do you think it means?

It's fairly cynical.
That's not cynical. Recognizing that other characters have flaws and maybe aren't good people at all isn't cynical. Cynical would have Pomni be a piece of shit too, which she isn't.

Criticizing this for being cynical when it's most obvious source of inspiration is I Have No Mouth And I Must Scream is crazy

To be fair, the ranger was sought after intensily and he was nowhere to be found.
Plus, she's trapped in a place she doesn't want to be

*whole also being hunted by that same bear. Who wouldn't pick the car and bail?
I really thought that Pomni was gonna see Kaufmo’s funeral and then request they have a funeral for Gummigoo. Maybe she wanted to hold off on mourning him because he might come back.
>I can't believe Kaufmo's go-... >... Whatever
Too busy coping by embracing sociopathy and nihilism. God forbid he actually dared to try feel feelings. Maybe this is how he keeps himself from abstracting?
Yeah I had a feeling he was just reoressing his emotions or something

The close up of his reaction to the funeral being mentioned was an obvious and welcome key in that he's just coping. He wasn't braced for it, momentarily showed pain, then got mad at himself and stormed off.
Oh he’s next if he doesn’t get his shit together.

He'll get corrected in the wagie arc next episode or so

Like a baby would do
Second episode was boring and sucked.
Not worth the wait.
Doesn't live up to the promise of the first episode in any way, shape, or form.
Stupid Ausgay shit and lolsorandom garbage.
Bad dialogue.
Worse unfunny 'jokes'.
lolsorandom holds up spork - the show.
Just look at characters and how they're just random bullshit, sigh.
Could have been so much better but clearly incompetent.
That's not the problem, it's him being some smug unfunny troll who actually fails at trolling. Like some normie's idea of what an internet troll actually is.
That shit is taylor-made to attract the most annoying people on the internet and is fetish-bait, but that's not surprising considering the creator is a troony with a drill fetish
Yea that checks out.
Well excuse me but that is Amazing!
It’s literally the opposite. You didn’t even watch it.
they got vegan propaganda
It's actually cannibal propaganda, which is based
How so? It was a great point.
I don't consider burgers murder because they are delicious.
Sexually frustrating.
Made the horrible mistake of being as gentle and supportive as possible to someone who's just been deeply traumatized.

enjoy getting raped by a skilled social manipulator.

Pomni is kind of a piece of shit given Episode 1 and abandoning Ragatha to visibly suffer for an extended period of time.

Holy shit

I imagine it'd be hard to get everyone except Ragatha on board with that
Why was Jax absent at the funeral? Fricking b***h

Did someone say Baby Jax?
Uoh?
UOOOHHHHH
It looked like it was a little too painful for him. People grieve in different ways.
He might get called out on it later because the others might feel offended, but not going is kinda the least assholish thing he’s done.
I guess you're right
I can imagine him coming back in a later episode as a reused asset by caine but with none of his memories, resetted.
>stretching this hard to make it fit a word you misused
lmfao keep it up my man
This show is way too sexual for something that kids are watching.
It's a shitty show and deserves to be purged for all eternity

But enough about The Amazing World of Gumball.

FOTM stopped being FOTM. Episode 2 and the Amazing Digital Circus has already overstayed its welcome
Says who?
Says anyone with a functioning brain. That rules out mentally ill discord troons. Stop wasting your time with bad web shows and create something good.
What's a good webshow for you?
Content Farm Garbage
Bad take anon, there’s only one cynic in the show.
>Cynical
>2nd episode ends with the MC finding a place of belonging and seeing that she has people who really do care about her

Here comes the antis.
Just die, lmao.
Frick off. I liked the first episode and where it seemed to be headed, but I find out I gave it too much credit.
Just like Jax turned out to be the simplistic one-dimensional character I figured he was, but hoped he wasn't.
jax being a plain and simple butthole is way better than him having some tragic backstory
That's not the problem, it's him being some smug unfunny troll who actually fails at trolling. Like some normie's idea of what an internet troll actually is.
we're on episode 2. it would be worse writing to have lots of character growth and make his personality 180 after 1 episode
He doesn't have a personality.
What the frick does ADC have to do with Blackrock?

What fetish has been showcased?
>Popee the Performer if it was pretentious and tasteless
puritanical
Yeah but this episode felt less cynical than the first tbh. Had more of it's own story going on and less just spamming le epic popular tropes.
>target audience: Young adult teens
>Cynical
very observant, anon
Not mean-spirited?
Really OP senpai?
