what do you mean people were expecting this to have some deep symbolic meaning
GLITCH@glitch_prod
We apologise for the newest episode
English
@ufoloverboy @fortnitebussy1 He kind of isn't though. Episode one is pomni focused. 2 is pomni/gumi focused. 3 is pomni/kinger focused. 4 is gangle focused (with a good bit of ragatha). The second half is more jax focused, but he honestly shares a lot of it with Ragatha. And 8 is very Caine focused
English
@Blazernatt @fortnitebussy1 I'm talking about him seemingly being the main focus every episode which is only worsened by the fact that he's Goose's self admitted self insert
English
Okay this one's corny on purpose though
tommy@sten_deeznuts
now that everyone’s listing their grievances with tadc i think we need to talk about this scene again
English
@Sitonmyfaith__ @RetroReina I mean, he just lost his mind? As stated in his code, "All torment must be 100% accidental". He isn't actually aware of the suffering he's causing, he just thinks he can force them to have fun. He asks why they torment *him*. He just thinks he's the one being tortured
English
@RetroReina TBH the main issue is that how they rushed Caine into torturing them for the fun of it
English
Apparently episode 8 of TADC is complete dogshit? Everyone’s entitled to their opinion but I don’t really understand why exactly. Most I’ve seen is just people saying “cringy dialogue” but what does that even mean in this context? Emotionally charged dialogue?
English
@marshfello12 @RetroReina They literally established earlier that he just ignored negative feedback (despite asking for it), and yet this time when they give him negative feedback he suddenly freaks out? Am I missing something 😭😭
English
@LuminaMeow14 @marshfello12 @RetroReina You can see his mindset start to fall apart with each episode. Compare how quick he starts to resort to anger and insults after some episodes when Zooble gives him attitude. In episode 6, he's full on done with the characters constantly telling him no
English
@marshfello12 @RetroReina Yeah Caine went from "I don't understand humans at all, but I'm trying what I can to make them happy" to "I'm just evil lolzzz" out of nowhere. It's not like they haven't called him out for his bs before! But this time he power trips? Why??
English
@JoeShmo22476157 @feltwelt78 what other writing and acting issues does the show have?
English
@feltwelt78 Criticizing Jax consuming the show is not wanting "episodic good vibes" its that the show spiraled into discarding most of the relevancy of the rest of its cast. Aside from the general writing and acting issues the show has, it discards all other character growth for Jax's sake.
English
Is pretty ironic that The Amazing Digital Circus has amassed a fandom of people who want it to be it be an episodic good vibes show (for example when they say Jax gets too much screen time and they hate him) cause one of the biggest messages of the show is anti-that.
English
@NillValintine The inability to be able to make a joke as lightly edgy as "nega" in the context they did, would genuinely push us closer to full on censorship and puritanism. You guys just need to get thicker skin and not complain about something so minimal
English
THIS!! This, THIS. Racism doesn’t have to be a huge negative event for it to be racism. Biases, name calling, stereotypes, blackface/makeup, and even ‘edgy jokes’ can and are racism. The Tadc community AND its creator need to understand that. And take accountability to unlearn it
💿MCDUltra@MCDUltraDX
Tadc fans and their "I'm not touching you" racism 🙃
English
@Gubsubmarine @_Honey_Wasp Nobody's saying that. The legit actual reason is because people find it attractive 🤷 Im not a fan of it, but literally it does not matter in the slightest. It happens with every character that's extremely skinny. Women are drawn as curvy, while men are drawn with extreme muscles
English
@_Honey_Wasp "B-b-b-but how are we supposed to know she's a GIRL bug?"
I can already hear them say
English
Men LOVE objectifying women like sir thats a bug WHY ARE YU GIVING HER BIG NATURALS- EXCEPT they arent naturals cause BUGS DONT HAVE MAMMARY GLANDS

@StaunchGrimoire @ShayneHart04 @K1NG3R4M4 It creates this idea that all the episodes are going to follow the formula of "each episode is a new adventure". It's an extremely childish concept with the whole candy theme, that gets balanced with the existentialism in the second half
English
@ShayneHart04 @K1NG3R4M4 not bad in a void but in hindsight it feels like a big nothingburger now as far as advancing the story went.
English
It’s crazy how Ep. 2 is straight buns and then they bust out this scene with a great rendition of the theme.
𝗒𝖺𝗌 ❀ (EP9 SPOILERS!)@kaufmopie
kaufmo really must’ve been a nice guy for everyone to react like this at his ‘ funeral’
English
@marsandsis @kworpy It's fun, and visually appealing. Plus you get to see Caine using the characters almost like dolls, while putting himself in the spotlight. And Jax looking at ribbits door. It does serve a purpose, it's just not meant to be super deep
English
@Kofigiration @kworpy it does have meaning. It's fun. Just a silly moment for the animators to show off. Not even to mention the jax/ribbit moment that ties into the scene prior. Things don't need to be a puzzle for it to exist in a show
English
@Alexg81008660 @vissykilldozer @kworpy Feel like Gravity Falls is why a lot of younger people nowadays have that mindset. Like how the whole bill cipher wheel at the end of the intro was never supposed to be picked apart, yet everyone tried to attach meaning to what every little symbol meant
English
@vissykilldozer @kworpy younger people especially seem not to know how to engage with media anymore or find enjoyment in the presented themes instead of trying to solve it ahead of time. just watch the show man! its gonna be revealed eventually!
English
@jang47899 @MondayCirrus Ragatha gets a lot of attention though? I remember hearing this complaint before seeing the show, and finding it silly when I finally watched it. She doesn't get an explicit episode focused solely on her, but we do get heavy moments that portray who she is
English
@MondayCirrus We had Kinger in 3 and 8, Gangle in episode 4, episode 8 is for Caine but none for Ragatha or Zooble like come on
English
@thecainegal @PedroManX89 It really is that simple. A lot of the criticism for this show seems to boil down to people expecting the show to explicitly explain every little thing and never force you to think for yourself
English
@PedroManX89 caine tried to manipulate his mind and it caused him to abstract, thats the context of this scene
English
This also reminds me they never elaborated how Scratch abstraction happened btw
liz ౨@lizibunn
how do u manage to make a pair of teeth express emotions so well
English
@ufoloverboy @fortnitebussy1 it does though, he hides it constantly, but you're never supposed to actually agree. Like the whole monologue about him being the funny one. We as the viewers know that he isn't, yet he says it so confidently
English
@JETTMURKCOOK @scientificpie You shouldnt have to apologize for obvious jokes that only offend 14 year olds on twitter that think there's nothing worse than being a little edgy
English
@scientificpie I don’t even get the big deal, just apologize for your stupid ass jokes , end of story. She didn’t even say anything about the shadman joke even tho so many people brought it up again, it’s kinda disgusting to see how she prob doesn’t care
English
reminder that saying kill all racists once is not an apology nor is it addressing racism in your community 😭😭

Don't notify me of this bullshit ✌🏾😭
English
@YourHostKaz @GoombaFallacy0 I'm sure a lot of stories you love were written the same way, you just don't think about it because they don't contribute to your established opinion. You only notice when they're bad
English
@GoombaFallacy0 I have no faith in a writer because every writer I tend to lend faith to disappoints me at the finish line every single time because of a trend of indie creators conjuring up point A & B before the in-between
English
It's why I have absolutely 0 faith in toby fox I am so deadass people need to stop writing their ending first
Kaz@YourHostKaz
why does it feel like literally everything doesn't know how to end anymore and just shits itself at the final finish line
English
@ab0sta @bobo_circus It's all because people on twitter only care about engagement. They don't actually care about this scene, or even feel that strongly about the opinion they're expressing. They just see others getting likes for it, and want to copy them. It's why everyone's calling it out at once
English
they got grown adults watching this in a movie theater no kids or nothing
ThatElfNerd | Vtuber@ThatElfNerd
You know, this scene works very unfortunately well if you substitute Caine with the Twitter mob, and the Circus cast with indie creators. You barely have to change any dialogue, except for the very beginning.
English
@Yeti_IsMyOcName @Claire122195 @spidaurman Anything rng will not be perfectly viable as a killer, at least not for a main power. Nobody wants to lose a match simply because they got unlucky on their own power. Even if both are good, it'd be unlikely that they're meant for the same situations
English
@Blazernatt @Claire122195 @spidaurman ok then each weapon could be viable and none of them is going to be worse than the other but they'll have a 1 minute 15 time limit before you are forced into a quick animation that swaps your weapon
English
another ranged killer yayyyy thats definitely not boring at all
