So to be able to eat what his bottomless stomach demands he opens a asmr muckbang channel

It’s perfect, he doesn’t need to speak so he can’t reveal info by accident, he can eat all the weird things he ever wanted and gain extra money

At most he gives reviews about how does it taste like

So people start to following him bc 1 Superman YouTube channel duh 2 it’s better than AI videos and they can grasp a bit about how does certain a things taste like and what textures it has and 3 despite showing a bit of his inhuman nature, Superman way of expressing himself is very endearing, so more people trust in him instead of fearing him

His channel is refreshing in the muckbang community, instead of eating trending foods or morbid quantities of noodles and cake, he gets requests from his fans about things they would have loved to eat but aren’t eatable

Clark later on making a paper about it saying it’s the best channel ever and very innovative and people should check it out 🙂‍↕️

What is it?

After 7 years of doing God knows how much behind the scenes wrangling, and despite Cartoon Network itself catching fire and imploding, Ben Bocquelet has somehow managed to get us another season of The Amazing World of Gumball. You know, that silly slice of life cartoon about the cat and fish siblings that spontaneously developed a plot in the final season and ended on a cliffhanger. Man am I excited to see what was up with The Void!

Things of note:

The show does not explain The Void. 

On the positive side, this means that new viewers don't need to watch the original show and will be exactly as baffled as the rest of us.

Finally, Americans have a show of their own that they can insist is really good but will then have to spend an uncomfortable amount of time trying to explain why that one episode had weird incest undertones. Eat my お兄ちゃん’s entire ass, Japan!

The show somehow manages to make even better use of the multimedia visuals than it's previous incarnation. There are so many fantastic ways that CG, live action, and alternative 2D animation styles are blended together and it all just works somehow.

In an odd turn, this season has multiple episodes that are VERY political. Has anybody else noticed how political messaging in cartoons has recently gone from "You should recycle!" to "The climate apocalypse is upon us and n one shall be spared!". It's, um, let's call it "a mood".

This show taught me what a mukbang is, and I am worse for it.

Speaking of Japan. I’m not joking when I say that this show has better sakuga and fight choreography than most anime. How did that even happen??

Special shout out to that one sequence in “The Entrance”. If you know, you know.

Final Verdict:

Despite a couple of weaker episodes and that one scene the writers should be in jail for (no, the other one) I’d say that this reboot is actually a step up from the original both in terms of writing and animation and was well worth the wait. I’m actually ~kind of~ mad at other animated sitcoms now for being so stale and bland by comparison.

It's legit baffling that Warner Brothers almost killed this show for no reason (along with literally the entire Cartoon Network lineup aside from Teen Titans Go and Total Dramarama for some reason). What the actual hell is wrong with David Zaslav? Why are executives like thi-OOOOH! Now I see why the first episode was about how we should literally eat the rich. I get it now.

Anyways this show is a treasure, go watch it.
