Presenting to gringos (people that aren't from Brazil) Mundo Torajo (Torajo World)
Mundo Torajo is a brazillian animation youtube channel that will be very soon releasing a series thanks to a gofundme. Unfortunately, there is still no english translation, so I can do it here if you want.
Torajo was a channel like Jaiden (same video format) until about august/september of 2023, when a short was released (this one) beggining the lore, in which a red version of Torajo took his place. This continued on for almost 2 months with no sign of Torajo, only through glitches and links on the shorts that lead to audios of Torajo and Morajo (the red one) talking about the channel's future and video format. 2 months after Torajo was gone, Morajo made this video showing all the audios together. He said he made all of this to prove Torajo the audience didn't really care for him (their whole argument was about youtube algorythm vs passion and a nice audience) because they only stayed for the mystery. In the next video, this one, the two fight and we find out that they are brothers and Torajo called Morajo when the channel grew and he needed help, with everything getting more and more unstable between them. At the end, they set apart and Morajo starts his own channel. The two start a "war" between them until this video (followed by this one), when he introduces a new character, Zulmi (I love her, you'll see more about her later). She is friends with the two and stops their fight... at least, for a while.
Then, this happened. Basically, Morajo got infected with algorythomus, a substance that is, well, the youtube algorythm. He goes a little crazy and threatens Torajo while hacking other youtubers, and then Torajo posts this video. He explains he lives in another planet, Verade, that can be only kept alive when people watch their videos. The next video, this one, is the last part of this series/saga. The two have a fight with a really emotional flashback of them as kids, and in the end THE POWER OF LOVE WINS AND THEY MAKE UP YAAAAAAY
And, for a while, all is well. They continue Torajo's channel together (the 3 of them), introduce a new character, Linn (I love him, you'll see more about him later) and even post a compilation of the fight. And then something happens.
The channel is hacked by an unknown person and this video is posted. In it, we meet the "hacker", Abel, who is basically Verade's god/narrator and that does propaganda to the gofundme for the creation of an animated series (he also wipes Torajo's memory after this). 1 week later, they reach their goal and publish this video, with a sneak peak of the series (also wiping the character's memories). Now, there's just 2 videos left for its release, and the story is warming up. They post shorts daily and this week, Morajo seems very unwell, and as we know algorithomus is coming back, this is surely the cause of it.
This is the lore at the moment, and I can keep you aware of it. They are very popular with kids. I recommend, even if you don't know portuguese, to watch their videos, cuz they are really fun and charismatic.

Now, I'll show you the characters!
He is the main character. He is, as you can see, a green apple and is very nice, though a bit sassy and dumb. Is said to be "an anime protagonist". Has a crush on Zulmi, but won't say it. He likes basketball, chess, drawing, Stardew Valley, Undertale, coffee, astronomy, dogs and Minecraft. He is pansexual.
Torajo's brother and former antagonist, now a co-protagonist. He is a red apple and kind of an emo, grumpy, kind of mean sometimes but actually very emotional, soft, shy and nerdy. A simp for pretty women (and has a crush on his friend's mom). He wears glasses but usually doesn't do it on videos. He likes Tetris, farming on minecraft and cats.
She is a blueberry and kind of a diva, but also very extroverted and likes gossips, also being nerdy about science stuff. Has a crush on Torajo, but won't say it. She likes Club Penguin, wholemeal bread, ducks, sewing, transverse flute, Sponge Bob, chocolate, gifting, miniatures, singing, Nagatoro, stars and dancing.
He is a lemon and very introverted and shy, being very nerdy about anime and videogames, also kind, calm and phylosophic. Is a very helpful friend. He likes bread with lettuce, Undertale, volleyball, ducks, boots, playing ukulele, Zelda and sleeping.
He is Linn's little brother. He is a lemon and basically an ipad kid (looks like the collector from the owl house, is currently called Enzo Gabriel/Azedo Gabriel). He likes spider man, chicken nuggets, roblox, gossiping, rock, Castle of Glass and fortnite.
He is Verade's god/narrator. He is a mango and kind of insane, but really funny. Very metalinguistical whenever he appears, acts like a showrunner most of the time. Usually shows up for announcements and such similar stuff.
She is Zulmi's best friend. She is a peach and very detective-like, making theories about everything that happens on Verade and being also very nerdy too. She is nice and kinda shy, but very persistent on what she wants. Her hat is kind of infinite as she guards a lot of stuff inside it. She likes rock music, Gravity Falls, Dark Souls, Sherlock Holmes, sci-fi movies, tea, editing, toddynho and coffee.
He is Morajo's friend from the time they both worked with telemarketing. He is a jaboticaba and very organized, being hired into the channel to keep things in order. He can be kind of serious and is quick to lie, but is also a very nice and chill guy, knowing how to handle people around him and almost never raising his voice to anyone. He is also extremely witty, smart and analytical. He likes journalism, interviewing people, technology, programming, maths, tea, documentaries, criminal cases, cooking, salty food and french fries.
She once worked in the main channel but quit, and long after that, "hacked" Morajo's old channel, which lead to a small fight between the channels until she reconciled with Torajo and became part of the main group. She is a strawberry and very intense in everything, often passing through very extreme emotions. She likes to be appreciated and thinks very good of herself, speaking a lot and being aggressive at times. However, she seems to truly appreciate every bit of care she receives and tries to reciprocate it, being also very spontaneous and secretly insecure, having a habit of lying because she fears others will think of her as a failure. She likes k-pop, Hatsune Miku, spicy food, specially tacos with guacamole, Just Dance, action movies, dogs, Steven Universe and Deltarune.
