Congratulations. You win a 『adhesive medical strips』.
>>151585747Is this the cartoon with the most amusing behind-the-scenes anecdotes?
>>151586828WHAT?
PRIZES PRIZES PRAZIZES!
>>151586875There where supposed to be cars going by, which was why Zim screaming What made sense. The Korean animators didn't put cars so it's just this weird screaming back and forth. Also do to an animation error they also had a guy walking drawn like a gaint. The zim team then voiced him laughing and sounds of giant feet.
>>151587296They're also censor jokes. I think one is there's a house of people eating cockroaches. So they just changed the cockroaches into little weenies, but the weenies still have legs and are crawling around. Then Gaz killed Iggins. Which they told they couldn't, so they did an extra shot of Iggins saying "look he's fine he can fly now"
>>151587313You know what, I just realized you were doing the joke. I feel foolish now.
Sometimes I get the Hot Topic slogans get in my head too much and forget that Invader Zim was actually really funny
>>151587323NTA, but I enjoyed the other examples, so it wasn't for naught. I wonder how many other gags from cartoons were just goofs turned into jokes. I know that the Dexter's Lab episode at Chubby Cheese's has a seen where the audience just flies away because the notes for the Korean animators were that the "audience takes off" and they misinterpreted it, so they just added a flying sound effect.
>>151585747Why is Dib's head so BIG?
>>151588179Another animation error probably.
>>151587296I was always baffled by the giant police officer but it was funny.
>>151587313The Iggins one always cracked me up more than the others, I love that they just took the most absurd solution to being told they couldn’t kill him.
>>151585747Typical burger health care.
>>151588179he has a lot to think about
>>151588345I love this little dudehttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ET-veNOQ5V0
'ey, that's the guy and he's back for MOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOORRRRRRRRRE!
>>151589444Dat episode where Zim loopse the bus>Anyone noticed we've been passing that same dog? Hey! I like that dog!
I WANT MY SLAW
>>151589274>>151588345>>151587313Love how they brought Iggins back again for a short cameo, where they tried to kill him off again by a Police shoot out. However, once again Nick wouldn't allow that.
I really loved their world. It was such a horrible dystopia but far more entertaining than OUR fag dystopia.
>>151588260For me, it's the inexplicable funk music with Ultra-Peepi's walk
>>151585747Any hopes for a sequel or a remake?
>>151591166we got the florpus movie, but it's a little shitty.
>>151590524Yeah forgot was his name was. But that was funny. Something that's a deleted scene but I forget because how much I watch the clip on YouTube. The Christmas special when the satellite falls to earth the crowd disperse, except one guy who open arms accepts death.
>>151591395Yes but nowadays. Like a new Invader Zim or a sequel with grown up Dib. I'd gladly watch a paranormal researcher Dib series.
>>151589513YOU HAVE YOUR SLAW SIR
>>151587296>The Korean animators didn't put cars so it's just this weird screaming back and forth.I think the unintentional results make it funnier.
>>151591166>>151591395>>151591704Iirc the dookie loop comic is the official conclusion to the story
>>151585747Any timeline where Dib actually killed Zim?
>>151591834You goin' make biscuits You goin' make biscuitsYou goin' make biscuitsYoooooou goin' make biscuitsNo GirAnd I never want to hear you say Biscuits again
>>151591834They'll find a way out eventually
>>151592227Pak of Doom but only alternatively Dib steal Zim Pak. An Irken Pak is essentials them without it they die. Zim has 10 min to recover his Pak. The 10 min play out in real time. As the clock ticks closer Zim gets more restarted. Originally Zim would get his Pak. However Jhonen found out about the cancellation, and decided to kill pff Zim where he wouldn't get the Pak. Even with all that in mind he couldn't actually finish the episode before he actually got cancelled. And a reminder Nickelodeon would bring back Zim post cancellation for a Christmas episode.
>>151592227Happened in the comics. He went insane after fusing with Zim's PAK and tried to destroy the multiverse.
>>151592463I love how GIR has a fucking real gun.
>>151592642That's so freaking cool. I bet the world of Andy and Leyley is set in the Zimverse, just in Europe.
>>151585747How powerful is Irken tech?
>>151585747I loved that school setting. Also the horror episode where they switch to a spiritual plane was the best
>>151587313 IGGINS!!!
>>151591166Let IPs die, anon.
>>151594880Agreed. I'd like another series set in Zim's universe even if its something different.>>151595277NEVEEEEER!
>>151585747What was the teacher? She felt like an eldritch being
Any other work that is similar to Invader Zim?
Dib's hair getting crazier as he ages always gets a giggle out of me.
>>151596037A fea creature that existed long before Skool, and theyeventually but the Skool around her. >Ex. I was in love once it was awful shows her as a fairy repeatedly flying into a bug zapperAlso in parent teacher night her talking to the adults >When you were my students. I said you amount to nothing, and I was right
>>151596900So the teacher is Pennywise!
>>151597004If you don't mind I'm a go on a rant. Imvader Zim takes place in the future, not that has any relevance to the plot. For example Zim, isn't allergic to rain. It's acid rain, but humans have evolved to just take it. Skool has a secret shadow government that lobotomies the school president to a political puppet that declares they have the cleanest bathroom floors. The black kid's name is "The letter M" And JTHM cell door can be seen in the Halloween episode Okay I'm done
>>151596844What will happen to him after he becomes an adult?
Their world doesn't look that awful, all things considered
>>151598409Everything is filthy and 90% of the population is legally retarded, but it's heavily implied that there are no more wars and they are on the cusp of a post-scarcity tech breakthrough where no one will ever go hungry.
>>151598535I thought war among humans had stopped due to the totalitarian government BUT there was the threat of invasion and supernatural horror everyday.>Everything is filthy and 90% of the population is legally retarded,I fail to see the difference from our world, except maybe 90% less faggy
>>151597110That's such a cool idea. Did the people get lobotomized?
>>151598953Zim would have taken down by the government I'm surprised they didn't before
>>151599976Will Dib end up working for MiB?
>>151600797Membrane Tech is better than any MiB
>>151585747Bump
>>151587296>>151587313Jhonen and Eric’s sense of humor was just so absurd that they could just roll with any censorship or animation error and make it work.
>>151586828>>151587296One of my favourites is that when they got back the animation of Ultra-Peepi walking through the city, the kirean animators made it look like he was strutting, so Jhonen decided to add random funk music to that scenehttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SMud6AoYzHc
>>151587296>>151588260What was the episode of the giant police officer? I can’t seem to find clips on YouTube, it sounds funny.
>>151604404Nvm I found ithttps://youtu.be/cqOjaXZLFBs?si=sans--zqApUdIdNq&t=67
>>151585747I feel like companies pay cartoons and TV shows to insert dialogue like this so they dont lose their trademarks. If the term Band-Aid becomes too synonymous with "adhesive medical strips" that it can be considered a colloquialism then they lose their trademark and anyone's allowed to use it.
How come the Invader Zim creator never made another show?
>>151606013He triedA very important houseI think Nick bought thw rights to the pilot. But decided they didn't want it since they own the pilot Johnen couldn't shop the show to other networks. The pilot leaked online.
>>151587296>>151604428>>151604359These are so fucking dumb. I love this show.
>>151606013Producers
>>151606013he's tried a couple of times but his projects keep getting shot down. I hope one day one he can make a new show, but every producer is a hack so who knows.
>>151606152Was it was good as Invader Zim?
>>151596844Why does his second girlfriend look like Gaz?
>>151604359I had forgotten this scene.Jesus Christ I want to shake this guy's hand.
>>151610446Similar haircuts.
>>151604428kek this is so good. What a fucking masterpiece
>>151606013Was he CANCELLED?
>>151612968That's what he looks like.That's very underwhelming.
People still care about Invader Zim in 2025?
>>151613899It was that good of a show. I am dying for a remake or a sequel where Dib has taken over his father's tech job and Dr. Membrane is a head in a jar.Also it should have a pessimistic Dilbert style story and explore Dib's boring corporate life.
>>151594492Zim destroys their planet on accident in the first episode
>>151606152It is Disney that owns A Very Important House, and Vasquez was told to pay them 40,000 bucks for the rights.
>>151613843What did you expect?
>>151614364Ahh my bad
>>151594492Individual Invaders can reliably conquer planets with advanced civilizations. Zim has personally exceeded Kardashev 1 on occasions. Their ships can fly through the cores of stars at high fractions of light speed without even scuffing the paint. They routinely remodel entire planets according to their whims, and no one in-series can provide meaningful resistance.
>>151613899I care about cooming to Gaz but not in the way BigDad draws her.
>>151615139I found Gaz didn't fit the story as well, sadly
>>151585747I still want more Invader Zim. It was just too good!
>>151591487
>listen to commentary on the dvds >Gaz' voice actress' normal speaking voice just sounds exactly like Gaz but without the mean tone>she's super nice and cheerful which is jarringAlso props /co/ for going this long without posting off model Gaz art
>>151617256I don't understand what people like about Gaz. I do enjoy the setting though.
>>151617365>goth/scene>gamer>meanShe checks boxes
>>151585747Zim is probably the only cartoon where I actually love the school setting, probably just because it lacks all of the generic shit you usually see with cartoon school stuff, as well as adding all the edgyness
>>151617365I just think it's funny how much pent up rage she has in a lot of scenes. psychotic goth looking girls are really popular too
>>151617749>She checks boxesFucking hell, I did not know some boards came with fundamental theorems.
>>151587313Meanwhile, some modern creators whine and foam at the mouth when a studio demands changes.Tragic.
>>151617749The tragic part is that she's never been a goth
https://voca.ro/1bBVj1ld0PWo
ugh
>>151596800Foamy the Squirrel
>>151613899>People still care about Invader Zim in 2025?Yeah, I doubt Invader Zim will ever leave my mind. I had a cousin, I use to talk to about new episodes. One day on a summer vacation, I found our she died. I won't get into specifics, but apart of me always associate Invader Zim with talking to her.
As President, I will ensure that all mankind has IT'S LEGS SAWED OFF!
>>151585747>invader zim is almost 25 years oldKill me.
>>151618813How she die?
>>151618961BadTo the point the newspaper had to redact how. But A* prison guard made sure that person got what's coming to them got 'em.
>>151618997Damn, sorry anon.
>>151619048I made it up.
>>151619158Larp somewhere else
>>151588179Its a cup to be filled with SALTED NUTS!
>>151585747Do you think the people in Zim's world get irradiated?
sex with zim
>>151590502For a second I thought it was a fan art for 10 minutes of doom (which was supposted to be one from few ending of the series)
>>151618925>IT'S dumbass
>>151620412You should want to sex Gaz or Tak
>>151590502I mean it literally is our fag dystopia. I don't know how you think it's any different.
>>151621390They are Gaz or Tak
>>151587268I can't do this...
>>151617256Got a clip of it?
>>151613843Look closer, that smile.
>>151618113Most cartoons have an idolized version of school where the only major problems are bullies and a handful of asshole teachers but the curriculum itself rarely gets scrutinized. Zim's school setting stands out because it portrays the school's lessons as a complete waste of everyone's time fitted with inaccurate information peddled by complete morons.
Reminder that thanks to Zim's own dumbassery in Florpus and the Tallest's own dumbassery for not even bothering to acknowledge the result of Zim's dumbassery, the Irken race is nigh-extinct.
Would you eat them?
Why did the Skool have a nun as a student?
>>151617256yeah melissa fahn has a really cute voice, it's nice to hear her speak in a friendly way.
Bump
>>151624851Has she done other things?
>>151585747 UGLY-ass teacher
>>151627086
>>151604359That "oh yeah" destroyed me as a kid.
>>151626426she was ed in cowboy bebop, the only role i know of where she was consistently silly. she was also eri in flcl which is probably a big part of why i liked the character.
>>151626426Off the top of my head, she voiced Felicia (from DarkStalkers) once for a really unfortunate crossover RPG called Cross Edge on PS3.
>>151624368I agree, and to add to that, none of the students can be easily fit into some kind of cliché archetype (bully, jock, cheerleader pretty girl) and are rather a way to compliment how insane and gross earth is. Like theres this scene where zim is waiting for the bell to ring while looking at a clock, a common scenario in a school setting. But at the same time, you hear Ms. Bitters talking about everything how there was NOTHING before the Big Bang while a fly is stuck in the clock’s gears and gets crushed in the end. It’s something only zim (the show) would do https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=Ct0MoAYSxHM&list=PLfxOQ8ucqGWz8zYG6gdJU-qw2hPzgPlOH&index=14&pp=iAQB
>>151628204About how there was nothing*
>>151627845Never heard of either of those, but I'll look em up
>>151627086Give her a break, she went on a trip to space but the shuttle imploded with her inside.
>>151587313the pig kid that jumps out the window but falls upwards
>>151628357>Never heard of either of those
>>151585747>『adhesive medical strips』STANDO DA?!?
>>151628709Don't watch anime. Sorry
But what about Gaz?
>>151629030you're missing out anon, and I say this as a complete /co/tard. You're entitled to not interact with anime in anyway, but there's definitely a lot of good stuff
>>151627845Awful >>151628357Don't, they're shit
>>151618737What's wrong?
>>151613843That's how he looked like around the time he made JTHM: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZwnYvwjvw3s&t=1043
>>151629765that account is some giga unfunny feminist cunt, sad to see Vasquez following her
>>151629892See now that's how I always pictured him. A 1990s goth weirdo.I miss this aesthetic, this era.
>>151630399He wasn't a goth, he never liked the music. He said it in a lot of interviews. He was a sci-fi nerd. There were just an overlap between sci-fi and goth in the 90's (basically mallgoths). He just happened to hang out with a lot of goths.
>>151620412Do not lewd the zim
>>151590524Much like this scene >>151586828 I love that the scene was spawned by a Korean animation error. Peepi was actually supposed to be running through the town, destroying it full kaiju style, but they gave him a pimp walk instead. Their response was to leave the animation and put it to a little funk track
>>151626426Dendy from OK KOLots of anime and video game dubs too
>>151592463Is that Rebecca Sugar?
>>151631648Yes, she was autistic over IZ as a teen. Hell peridot is literally just her version of zim
>>151631884https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J7grFORQLIo&t=9s
>>151619158Damn, you're a pathological lair anon
>>151631901SU parodies always give me a laugh https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nBje1yOv3rI
Always felt like Helluva Boss was vaguely Invader Zim inspired. And not just because of Moxxy.The art style feels similar without being a knockoff.
>>151629692subhuman, cowboy bebop is primo
>>151632259It isThe hazbin pilot even has those silhouettes like the introViv was a deviant art and tumblr girl as well
>>151631901I just realized that peridot is a zim's knock-off written by whatever-the-name-of-the-generation-that-grew-up-on-tumblr-in-their-teens-is, damn, I bet the writers have openly admitted it in some interview or post or something.Fuck, I feel like if someone zoomed in on my brain right now, they'd see a snail finally finished a Grand Prix.
>>151632259>vaguely Almost all of vivzies work has zim influence, especially HB. It’s mainly just the aesthetic though>>151632539Well, now you know
Hazbin and Helluva are a strange fusion of Invader Zim, Steven Universe, and Homestuck.I still remember Viv's old concept of Charlie back when she was a steam punk knock off of Vriska.
>>151632636I genuinely believe vivzie only gets inspiration from ao3, all the cartoons and comics she consumed as a teen, and nothing else
>>151632636>>151632259>>151631884Why does Zim attract so many more autistic edgy women than male autists/edgy emo guys? Is it the shipping possibilities?
>>151632763I have this question but for EEnE
>>151632539A large majority of SU is just cobbled together from various animes/shows Rebecca Sugar liked. Lapis is literally just Penny from Goldenbat. Whole premise is just ripped from Revolutionary Girl Utena
>>151632539>whatever-the-name-of-the-generation-that-grew-up-on-tumblr-in-their-teens-isZoomers?
on the subject of SU, heres a classichttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0eUTrKOoRbk
>>151632763>>151632779I've given this a lot of thought. I think it has to do with how Zim and Dib's dynamic plays out a lot like the CCA superhero vs supervillain dynamics. The shipping culture didn't come out of nowhere, it's rooted in how anxious/obsessive the dynamic is between Zim and Dib. It's not too different from how homoerotic capeshit can be, except they're BOTH "girls" in that sense. You can't really square Dib or Zim as the man/the top because they're both irrational/emotionally unstable/anxious/scared/vulnerable, all the time.The only real "male" character is Membrane.EEnE follows a similar pattern. Ed is the only real "male" boy while both Eddy and Edd are very immature in a girlish sense. Edd has a high-pitched voice, wimpy, cares about being tidy and clean, and is borderline OCD at times. Eddy fixates on looking cool and dressing in a way/carrying himself to impress others (out of the three, he desires the approval of others the most and cares deeply about what people think of about him).
>>151632763When it comes to Zim specifically, the show acts as a beacon for autistic girls because it is firmly a sci-horror story while also being applicable towards the Female Autistic American Experience. The anxiousness, isolation, rejection, fear of the Other, body horror, etc.>Dib grows up in a lonely house. His sister either dismisses him or torments him. His father is always at work or focused on work even when he's at home. Dib longs for his approval and acceptance of his faith in the unknown.>Dib is rejected by his peers for his looks and his interests. Dib has no friends or companions to call his own. Despite being rejected by a shitty populace, Dib wants these people to like him and see that he is right about the world and Zim's existence.Dib's whole character is female because if Dib were "male", he flat out wouldn't care about whether or not anyone believed him or accepted him. His mission would be about stopping Zim for its own sake, not about society going "wow Dib, you're so right and so cool". To a degree, Dib seeks approval and love from others because he doesn't love himself enough. Dib has more in common with Shinji Ikari or Dean from Venture Bros if you think about it. Masochistic in his pursuit of emotional connection, and constantly vulnerable (which is what defines the general female experience). If Dib were more of a guy, he'd be like a tiny Dale Cooper or Fox Mulder.
>>151633121Never understood why he never liked regular show, though it's cool to know he likes zim
>>151632763It has the right mixture of cute and edgy that attracts those type of girls. Guys can like it but it'll be a small facet of their larger edgy and more masculine tastebase meanwhile girls basically just had that Nightmare Before Christmas and whatever tacky edgy cute shit was around at the time.
>>151616987>goy >still a three letter name Kek
>>151633770Cute edgy is probably the best way to describe it. Just look at stuff like psycho teddy
>>151633337>If you're a glory hound you're a womanSo Donald Trump is the first female president?
>>151632763Zim is cute in a weird way, how he always wants to prove himself comes across as endearingly pathetic. Autistic women adore pathetic 2D men.
>>151627695>Bitters being young when she taught Jhonny>Bitters being young, ever Pretty sure she's as old as time itself
>>151604445It's more the network lawyers who do this than the companies themselves. If the company was paying for it they'd be better off just paying for brand promotion directly
>>151606013>>151606152>>151609462>>151612968Didn't he make that Randy Cunningham show or was he just a writer?
>>151629116The movie ruined her
>>151618603Most modern creators aren't really all that talented. That or they're mad they can't fill the episodes with whiny faggot pandering. Alex Hirsch for his faults made a lot of his mandated changes be funnier than his originals but he still bitches and moans constantly about it
>>151633995Yes
>>151635987I disagreeI think the movie made her more mature and understanding of what to do in the plot
>>151635969He was only the character designer for the show
>>151635987Shes more expressive in florpus but I still like her
Funniest Nicktoon probably
>>151585747Dib's hairstyle is stewpid
>>151637889t. Zim
>>151627695Hmm
