Fun fact: Caine is not a villain but he is basically the saying “The road to hell is paved with good intentions” he’s an AI that doesn’t know how to properly help the humans who get trapped there and is unintentionally hurting them
That’s why I’m not that pissed off that he blew Gummigoo up.
the naive "helper" with godlike powers. Is arguably worse than most villains. He is like having a robotic overlord that hears you complain your legs hurt after a good run, so you suddenly black out and wake up to find the robot knocked you out and replaced your legs with mechanical ones that won't hurt when you run and the robot expresses how much it helped you "I heard you complain your legs hurt after running, so following my protocol to protect you from harm and help you, I gladly replaced your legs with new prosthetic ones that won't hurt you when you run now. Your welcome"
that's a cool perspective! I still HC that Caine is the first human mind plopped in there, like a copy of the head developer 👁 likely there to help the real developer (cut to that one ad from the website) he was based on create the game more efficiently. I think he was just in there so long he completely forgot or perhaps was tweaked so he wouldn't remember, avoiding the existential dread that the other "humans" are experiencing. (humans in quotes bc I think theyre also just copies of their respective persons minds)
@@NevaehEvol we’ll just have to see what the future holds also is it me or does Jax seem like somethings up with him like he’s lashing out because he’s going through something now that’s not an excuse for his actions but it does make sense as to why he’s acting a little more aggressive then the first episode
There’s also a theory that Jax is a NPC and he got a human to be erased but Caine cannot remember so he doesn’t want to risk it again
Some of the things he says really makes you wonder how little Caine actually understands the outside world, like calling them "hardshelled hamburgers" or calling the gloinks "humanoid hashbrowns".
I think Pomni's reaction to Gummigoo saying he's "nothing" hints at some serious *pre* Circus trauma.
oh absolutely
The funeral scene is amazing, because it brings out such an emotional response for a character we've never even seen (pre-abstraction), and we don't hear what any of the characters who did know him have to say. But between the music and just the way they act, we can experience it the way Pomni does. She never met Kaufmo either, but it's obvious how much the others cared about him.
tl;dr minimal detail, maximum impact
absolutely, dude; it's such a well composed scene
7:30 "[Caine] is the god of this universe. But somebody made him, so is he really..."
The Amazing Digital Circus is a metaphor for the Gnostic conception of the world, and Caine is the Demiurge. A deeply flawed prison for souls come down from a higher reality. Run by an equally flawed creator, who in his ignorance thinks he's god. Keeping the souls pacified and glutted with base and empty pleasures, to stop them from seeking escape.
I like your funny wordssss, magic man
@@NevaehEvolgood reference
Makes me wonder about another franchise, "From." The people there are trapped in a town that has monsters that come out at night to torture and to kill them. But we have not seen an obvious demiurge, yet. No one is in control keeping these people trapped.
That's a pretty bold interpretation of the series so far
You don't think Bubble is degenerate in nature when it clearly stated, "Made with all the love I am legally allowed to give" in regards to the food it made in the end of the first episode.
you have a good point, but I still don't think she's (does Bubble use it pronouns? /genq) as much of a degenerate as I am
@@NevaehEvol I don't think Gooseworks gave pronouns for Bubble
@@coolguy5133 bet! ty!
@@NevaehEvolidk if this is official, but according to the Wiki, Bubble is a dude
There is now an entire internet trying to lip-read a character with no lips...
Dont underestimate the internet, its crazy and determent enough to do it.... well exept its attention span is to short and will end up just make up what it wants and call it a day.
SO true
@@MouseGoat Don't be so sure. Sometimes parts of the Internet will obsess for YEARS! Isn't that right, Half Life die hards and Celeste brute force puzzle solvers? So it's hard to say which way they'll go.
The "all the love I'm legally allowed to give" line from the pilot makes me think that bubble is more degenerate than you think but I kinda love thinking bubble is a mass murderer.
“If I forget who’s a human and who’s an NPC who knows…what… _could happen?_ “
Yeah, Caine definitely poofed a person before.
either that or he forgot that *he's* a human 👁️
@@NevaehEvolor another character is actually an npc, personally I think it’s the delete thing though
@@Johnmaloney1962that cant be, everyone's age is already confirmed except Caine's for obvious reasons
FUN FACT: Jax is the youngest of the group and kinger has more than twice his age
The fact that he specifically says "who knows what could happen?" implies that he's never ACTUALLY mistaken a human for an NPC (or vice-versa) before. However, I think his disturbed reaction is because he's just thinking of what could hypothetically happen if he did. There's not enough reason to think he's actually deleted a human before, especially since in ep 1 he said he can't control any of the human's minds, implying that he CAN'T fully delete them anyway.
@@jacobwansleeben3364 I see that haunted expression as possibly he did pop one, and repressed the memory.
Pomni's fears are completely rational given how she was directly attacked by the abstracted caufmo, and learning in the pilot if you reach a breaking point of giving up on what's real and what's not what's the point of living, effectively giving up your humanity to the point of becoming an abstract concept. Safe to say she's afraid of losing herself and being forgotten like she never mattered, as if it was all pointless. But seeing caufmo's funeral service let's her know that she matters and is not alone.
absolutely! her having that affirmation of sorts that she will have still made an impact and have mattered to people is probably really helping her mental
7:00, A background dude accidentally decapitated their friend.
11:37, The bandits truck is from the future (Showing spikes) in this scene!
28:58, Gummi bandits in the background is breaking it down!
these are so fuckin cute
Caine cast "ligma balls"
CEASE
gut punch episode, in his short time alive gummigoo was as much a person as anyone... he grew, he dreamed, he felt... also your avatars eyes are amazing, welldone! ^^
a gut punch indeed! it was truly heartwrenching, but you're right about Gummigoo ♡
also thank you oh my gosh nrjdfjdjd
“He’s Michael in the backroom at the party” bro. QUA-LI-TY JOKE.
YOURE THE FIRST AND SEEMINGLY ONLY PERSON TO GET IT
@NevaehEvol I got it, but I immediately went to Mousey in the Bathroom. Which... I think Ironmouse would be excellent as a guest character in this. Seems about her speed.
@@NevaehEvol MY MAJOR IS MUSICAL THEATRE LMAO
BUBBLE! You can’t say that filth on the internet!! You can only say that on radio
precisely!
How wild is it that the emotional high point of this episode is a fucking FUNERAL?
absolutely bonkers
This gave me mad max vibes when I watched this kafmo dead
I watched Saberspark's video on it and he immediately picked up on that! I've never seen/played Mad Max, so I don't have the ability to compare
oh yeah, Kafmo dead dead (shoutouts to any flashbacks we might get)
Gumigoo: Miss Pomni? ... I don't feel so good.
banned. you can't make me feel feelings like this, colt1903.
@@NevaehEvol Damn. Welp, we had a good run, boys! 😂
I wasn't any better when I saw the episode for the first time... I'm glad that I'm not weird for crying over the end...
you are definitely not weird for that ♡
Just wanna say the NSFW art of Gummigoo is WILD
HELLO?
Not gonna lie I loved the pizza tower reference in this episode
One must imagine Gummigoo happy
only imagine tho, bc happiness is illegal for the crocogummygator
They really put a Pizza tower reference in this
The short armed alligator does the Pizzatower taunt with the exact same sounds to dodge the rocks
Despite Goose saying that Jax gets even worse as the episodes go on, I hope he gets SOME kind of redemption in the future. I feel like his brutish nature is a bit TOO mean to be a very likeable character in my book. His design is cute and his smug sassiness is fun, but outright abusing your companions is outta pocket.
Caine is an AI, part of why he has trouble understanding humans
that's what the MAN tells us, but I think it's a RUSE
I think you are an AI or something
Another upload means I gotta show love, my friend. And I gotta ask, are you feeling better after the mini golf stress last week? 😆
thank you!!! and oh yea, definitely I can't wait to stress over Zombies tonight instead
@NevaehEvol don't worry nev I'll be there for moral support like always
"She fell in the abstractussy" 😂
Gangel's comedy mask may as well be Indiana Jones's hat
The candy queen looks like a snack.
I won't elaborate futher.
Gumigoo is Rorschach, Caine is Dr. Manhattan, and I'm Nite Owl; if you get what I mean
Jeez, you blowing up like that on pomni was so fucked up 🥺
sorry! she was being ~annoying~ (i still love her tho and she did fix it by providing gummigoo emotional support after)
@@NevaehEvol Way I see it is, she was basically kidnapped of her old life and thrust into this very bizarre world that time after time is making her go a little crazy, a lot happened all at once, I can't really fault her for not immediately picking up on signs that "aw shit yeah, this must be hard for him.." when she is still processing and dealing with her own trauma.
Caine is legit not human, hes the god ai there
that's what the MAN is telling us, but I think men are LIARS /lh
@@NevaehEvol goofy goober nuh uh
You are part of it right?
@@glitchminer7526 yes help me im stuck in the circuse i have 1 fps
You know, this episode, with how life like the NPC's are, and Caines reaction to the NPC, makes me wonder.
Are Pomni and the others even real people. Or are they also just NPC's that Caine has cooked up trying to pretend he is not alone?
Is Caine even real, and if not, is he aware of this?
After all, if they never existed outside "the game" then there is no entrance, thus no exit, and if death is not an option, then there is truly "No Way Out".
that actually correlates to my HC really well! I think they aren't "real people" per se, simply copies of real people that put on the headset; no isekai here, just computers that firmly believe theyre real people
I kinda want to see fan art of you as a gummi character like gummigoo now…
that'd be so cute!
@@NevaehEvol right?? I mean as a gummi panda your mallow and gummi locations would maybe be a bit different… hmm… i may have to make this one myself… if i A: every have free time, and B: ever manage to get the discord invite in time X-P one day hahaha tho ill still try to make it anyway… or maybe even a 3D figurine version… hmm… 🤔 now what to use for the materials… actual candy… or some sort of stand in…
Been waiting for this
hope you enjoyed!
BTW, there is a rumor floating around that Gummygoo will return in later episodes.
On the Bubble censorship, I’ve had a thought: most of the established censorship in digital Circus has that funny Kaine pop up and sound effect. But with Bubble it’s just a bleep. What does this mean? No idea. Could be an implication would bubble said it was extra bad. Or (tinfoil hat equipped) maybe it wasn’t even a swear/lewd/violent thing they were censoring… Ehh, who knows?
PS “What time period is this supposed to be again?” - J R R Tolkien to C S Lewis, paraphrased.
If you want to hop on something else to emotionally recover then can you please react to an indie animation series known as "Monkey Wrench"?
It currently has three episodes with the fourth in progress.
hmmmm 👁
@@NevaehEvol I guess I should expound.
There are mercenaries. The galaxy is populated. The music and art style ROCKS.
Have you seen any of jt music videos?
This so was so good and love the funny action. Pot gummigoo he would’ve been perfect to the gang but Caine ruined it. It was good and sad too
I ship Ragatha and Pomni
Are we talking Titanic, The Enterprise or Evergreen?
and what's the shipping price or is it included?
@@MouseGoat lol funny
25:58 In that one moment . Their world didn’t seem so hopeless . In that one moment . Anything and everything was possible . In that one real moment . They had found their own purpose ….. together 🥹
IM EARLY ONCE AHAIN YIPPIEEE
YEAHHHH! YIPPEEE
@@NevaehEvol WOOHOO!!
Caine is the evil mastermind behind everything
evil? maybe! misguided? for sure!
Bad experiences tend to give people a higher capacity of empathy. Pomni saw him depressed and suffering over his reality because she is going through something too
which in so glad she eventually did bc at first I was gettin REAL annoyed by her
Only two minutes in and we already got “Abstractussy”, this channel is great.
abstractussy hits different
I'm only now realizing that when Jax calls shotgun he's calling what gun he wants. As we see later.
WAIT YOURE RIGHT
Wait a minute they did the vine
Princess: I trust you not to let it fall into the wrong hands.
Nevaeh: Oh, that's definitely going to fall into the wrong hands.
Ends up in Jax's hands.
So, they were right.
Also, pretty sure Neveah is going to be buying a Gummigoo plush.
Jax simply cannot be trusted with lives
I wish I could! I'd love a Gummigoo plush
@@NevaehEvol You can! its in the Digital circus store, along with an adorable Gummigoo keychain.
@g7r_wyvern826 no, like I can't afford it 😅
I'm reminded of a quote from The Good Place (the part where they were doing the Trolley Problem): "See buddy? Don't worry, none of this is real." "Well, they're fake people, but their _pain_ is real."
When Jax says "I'm so unbelievably disappointed right now," the French captions say "My disappointment is immeasurable and my day is ruined."
"If I start losing track of who's a human and who's an NPC, who knows what... could happen..." From this line, it's being hypothesized that Caine may have poofed a human before, or caused some other terrible thing to happen, due to losing track between humans and NPCs.
It's been confirmed by Gooseworx herself, as part of the premise of the show, that Caine is in fact an advanced AI that has almost full control over the digital world, and is simply trying his best to accommodate for the trapped humans, but struggles since he has barely any understanding of humans and emotions. He isn't malicious, just negligently ignorant.
I wonder if the truck horn in this episode sounds like silly nonsense because Cane doesn't know its actual purpose.
I love this idea
I mean, considering she's still getting over YESTERDAY's existential crises, I'd say Pomni was quite quick on the draw of consoling Gummigoo... and now she has a new mental crisis to process. But at least she knows she won't be forgotten if/when she goes. And she can remember Gummigoo and the hour they had.
that's a lovely point
So many theories already buzzing around. Here's a few things I've found other reactors have noticed:
The tea pots are actually a commonly used model for 3D imaging, which is why they're just floating in the backrooms.
Kinger has an obsession with bugs... someone thought that's because he's a coder for the game and coders fix (and are perhaps a little obsessed) with "bugs" in the game.
All the "people" in the CCK were just mannequins because they were never intended to be interacted with. Even the princess is a little flat because she's just the quest giver. Nobody in the kingdom really matters. The crocs were more flushed out, with motives and backstories to give them motivations and potential dialogues.
The Fudge (and Ragatha) were nods to an ancient movie made back in the 70's: Raggedy Ann and Andy, The Movie (I think?). The Fudge is directly inspired by a character in the movie known as The Greedy. Same constant hunger for candy, same willingness to eat even living things if it would sate it's hunger.
The one I really appreciated was noticed by both you and Nux Taku: That tiny moment when Jax showed that he actually cared about Kaufmo before his cynicism pulled the mask back into place. Nux is convinced that Jax is going to have an interesting character development.
Nearly everyone noticed that Jax and Caine were not shown catching Pomni's outstretched hand, but Zooble, Ragatha, Kinger and Gangle did. Kinger's is particularly difficult to see as he doesn't have arms. I think most of them figured this was foreshadowing, but I disagree. Pomni just recognized that Jax and Caine were not good people and wouldn't help her... but I think she's wrong about Jax. Like Nux, I think Jax is far more nuanced than being just a bully-asshole to everyone. I think he's working on the idea that if he's stuck here and his sanity is on the line, the best way forward is to bury his feelings and play into his darkest urges. The internet seems twisted up about this, having found Jax a loveable mischief-maker in the pilot, only to discover that he's a serious prick in this episode.
I have a few predictions:
I think at some point either Pomni or Ragatha is going to snap the leash and treat Caine or Jax or both to a world of repressed rage. I'm leaning towards Pomni, but I think that Ragatha is primed to loose her inner demons on Jax at some point.
Caine. AI? Developer? Sadistic human who deliberately trapped everyone in TADC ala Sword Arf Online? Caine said he developed the new AI to be "57 times more immersive" which seems odd as I'd argue Gummygoo is more real than he is. Of course the Cain and Abel thing along with the Gnostic references seem to really play into his and Pomni's design. Last episode's final scene was noted to be reminiscent of DaVinci's Last Supper, with Pomni wearing a similar color pattern to Christ. All that was brought up by other reactors, but my thought is this: We're going to meet Abel, or an Abel-like character in the future.
Zooble is voiced by Ashley Nichols, who has been in a committed relationship with Michael Kovach, and I am loving that fact. Go look up Hunicast and give it a listen. She had A LOT of the original voice actors for Hazbin Hotel on her show, as well as some other shows (the Beastars Hunicast is a fucking riot!). I think her character is going to be reeeeaaaaally fun to explore.
Anywho, another great reaction, you amazing little demon gremlin! Thank you!
Of course after reading this, it occurs to me that Bubble might be Abel. Similar sounding name... gets "killed" by Caine constantly... yeah, whoops.
I’m so convinced we’re gonna get Jax’s equivalent of Hazbin Hotel episode 4 at some point and it’s gonna hurt cuz I get major Angel vibes from Jax (yes I know Jax’s VA was Angel in the pilot) and I’m gonna be a wreck if/when we get that episode
@@maggie_knolastname Jax seems more like Blitzø
@@BlooMonkiMan oh, good comparison
I honestly kinda love that Jax isn't a cookie cutter "silly little twink that's mean sometimes" and is truly, as described by Gooseworx, an asshole. I love seeing his mask slip off tho!
love the concept of Kinger being a developer that hunts bugs in the game! there's so much silliness is this show that can be skewed versions of reality
also the Bubble being Able is a cool thought! I didn't consider that before
The fact that they're selling a plush of Gummigoo after his instant demise is dark and hilarious.
our poor crikey man hath been turned into a marketable plushie ;; that's probably where Caine sent him
@@NevaehEvol Caine- "as your punishment i am going to *MASS-PRODUCE YOU* Pomni- "wait we're still getting punished" Caine- "That's the thing about life pommni sometimes you get *MASS-PRODUCED*
11:20- *POMNI TAKE THIS* ( *Eh* )😂😂
14:24- *When you fail a drift in a game*
gotta love whenever a show hits you with the most emotional shit you've seen in a long time to get immediately whiplashed by happy outro music
also something worth pointing out, at the end when we see Pomni's hand being caught by all the gang when she had the realization she's not alone, we only see the hands of Ragatha, Gangle, Zooble and Kinger, _yet not Jax's._ i have the feeling this is more meant to represent Pomni not thinking he would give a damn rather than him actually not giving a damn since we count notice at least for a split of a second that deep down he does care
At 6:56 one of the purple puppets in the crowd is seen strangling a blue puppet til its head pops off in the background lol
i didnt notice that when i first watched it, but i saw some YT shorts from the person who animated that part! it's so silly!
You naming the letters in Pomnis room made me laugh so hard 😭
I'm a lil phonetic guy
Props to the thematically-relevant comic sans font
this show deserves a representative typeface
i've been noticing, does Zooble pieces change time to time, not just the box on the chest, all the limbs
I was thinking the box was out of place, but I'll have to go back and compare their limbs from both episodes!
“Just a little peeved at Pomni”
There was around 60 seconds of ranting for a single line. I don’t think “little” makes the cut there XD
shhhhhh, i swear its just a little~
I'm guessing Caine must've seen something happen with bringing an NPC back to the Circus. Dude seemed pretty concerned in that one frame that looks like a reference to a noot noot meme
he did seem really concerned! even w/o knowing how long the Digital Circus existed, it's fair to assume something bad had happened before as a result of that exact scenario
How much you wanna bet Caine couldn't tell the difference between a player and an NPC at one point and resorted to deleting them both
@@chatteringbox7583 I was thinking an NPC got Abstracted, which infected the whole game. I think there was also a brief mention of Abel in the pilot, so I guess it could've reminded Caine of his brother...
You forgot zooble in your lineup 😂
shhhhh I would neverrrrr you're just crazyyyy
I like your headcanon! Personally, with our very brief look at the (presumed) computer and headset where this is taking place at the end of episode 1, part of me... contemplates... whether the outside world is in a good state or if it's potentially post-apocalyptic or collapsed in some way.
thank you!
and that's good attention to detail! the world does look particularly fucked up from the small glimmer we've had, so I could totally see that being the case!
@@NevaehEvol Thanks! ☺️
They had the GALL to give us Gummigoo and then take him away and then give us a plushy of him. The nerve! 😡 Yes I did buy one but that's not the point.
The only thing missing would be that “don’t turn me into a marketable plushy” copypasta
that marketable plushie factory is prolly exactly where Caine sent him
One thing I love…bubble wasn’t bleeped with the normal digital cercus style, implying (to me at least) that bubble was censored for the benefit of the AUDIENCE, not the characters
that's actually such a good point omg
yeah bc maybe he did not say bad words he just said something very disgusting
@@adriellejazelsengco2424 that’s what seems to be implied
This episode made me consider two ideas: The first that Caine isn't a programming AI, and is simply using existing assets his own designers made as well and rearranging them, so his Admin controls are less ground up programming and more RPG Maker/Mario Maker/Mine craft creative mode kind of control, and some of the other AI are actually newer/more advanced than he is, just without the admin controls like he has. The other is I suspect Jax may believe he is the only human there, given how he acts and reacts, possibly because he might be able to still feel his body (hunger, breathing, etc...) while the others are either fully in or are like mind clones *each person could be in there in different ways*, sure didn't look like Pomni or anyone was sitting at that desk in the real world at the end of last episode that she had recognized inside the copied space. So Pomni sucked in like Digimon, Jax has a headset on in a hospital/lab bed like Sword Art Online.
4:26 Fun fact: there is one of the language you can switch the video to where Bubble isn't censored so those who speak that language know exactly what Bubble said x) (I believe it's either Filipino or Hindi but I am not sure)
30:17 I saw someone once who said that there is only one thing that explains Caine's reaction, being that has happened before, and not of other NPCs, he actually obliterated ACTUAL people
you can't just say that and NOT provide a translation!!
@@NevaehEvol Just checked apparently its the Hindi language and in that version Bubbles said: "If I had my way, I would become a dentist and pull out everyone's teeth. Then the money is mine and the candies are also mine." (Google Translated)
Which is a messed up thing to say when your best friend/master/creator/God is just a big mouth with teeth lol
@@TheMayanGuy I knew it would be murdery! (also thank you for actually getting the translation djdnxnzj)
Thinking it over, if the show ReBoot ever gets a real return I think Glitch would be the perfect ones to make it, heck it even fits the theme of their productions.
It makes me think Gummigoo wasn't killed, just sent back. Now that he's self aware, I think he'll find a way to make it through and return to the circus, like in Reboot, AndrAIa was an NPC, and she was able to live in mainframe. So.....
It's weird, I always thought the NPCs just naturally saw Caine as a God and never even considered the prospect that Caine specifically designed them to view him as a God, though the latter does seem more likely given that he created everything in the Candy Canyon Kingdom. It's also funny to see initial speculation that Gummigoo will be resentful of Caine for putting his village and mother in the state that they're in, when in reality, Caine didn't even bother going that far. He only included what was necessary in terms of what the human players would theoretically encounter, meaning even though he gave Gummigoo a motive for what he did, he didn't bother actually making a model for his mother since I guess Caine never really though or expected the human characters to actually go to Gummigoo's village and see her. This makes it all the more twisted that Caine decided to test out a new AI that he says will make the adventure 57 more immersive, when all it means is that Gummigoo is now sentient enough to have existential dread over realizing he's an NPC designed to be fought and defeated in what is ultimately a trivial distraction for the human players. This all contributes to just how callous is when it comes to not only the humans that enter the Digital Circus, but the NPCs he creates. This is highlighted when Gummigoo enters to circus with the human characters, and Caine just instantly pops him into confetti without letting either Gummigoo or Pomni explain why he's here. While I do understand why he did it, he doesn't want to do anything harmful to a human he thinks is an NPC, it again show how much he disregards digital creations, treating them exactly the way Gummigoo feared, and that's to say nothing about how oblivious he is to human emotions to the point where he doesn't even consider what kind of emotional damage this did to Pomni. This is why I really love Caine as a character, he isn't an outright villain, nor is he intentionally cruel or malicious, he's just an advanced AI that isn't advanced enough to consider deeper thoughts like the emotional needs of humans and at what point does an AI start to become more than just program designed to fulfill a specific role. There truly is a lot of depth to his characterization, more than I think some people give him credit for (same with Jax, whose characterization I think a large number of fans completely missed the point of with this second episode).
I also would like to applaud you for calling out Pomni for initially disregarding what Gummigoo was going through. I know you took it back after Pomni started to console him, but that's just it, Pomni didn't actually seem to register what Gummigoo was going through until she actually asked him. This suggest to me that Pomni is not very good at reading people, and has a tendency to prioritize her own problems in such a way that she disregards others. This is best shown with how she acts around Ragatha, despite Ragatha being not only nothing but friendly to her, but also being REALLY patient and understanding with what Pomni is going through, Pomni acts incredibly stand-offish to her, even imagining her taunting Pomni during the opening nightmare sequence. As funny as the whole "I'm not a child, you don't have to hype me up" line is, it still feels very blunt and cold towards someone who is really trying her hardest to make Pomni feel better, and who honestly is probably going through her own emotional issues too (despite saying they're "all good" in regards to Pomni abandoning her, I'm almost certain Ragatha still felt upset or disappointed by it but is choosing to hide it in order to make Pomni feel better). Pomni is also a great character in this regard, she's clearly not a bad person, but has her own flaws when it comes to interacting with other people, something she's become better at by the end of this episode, I think. Like, man... SO many great bits of writing in this episode, it's why I love this series when just watching the pilot merely made me "like" it!
HAHAH AT 4:31 i immediately got an add that started with "Ai is smart!" Which i rhought mightve been a bit from the video but its just perfectly coincidental
that's actually so perfect, omg
100% believe Jax revealed he has his memory from the real world when he mentioned "Augustus Gloop"! Totally a clue that he is working for the powers behind the circus. I also think the scene where the trucks were going over the rough terrain gave us another hint. Everyone bounced around in the truck but the camera was locked on Jax's face so it appeared that his head wasnt moving. When you add that to his talking to the camera in the 1st ep but they tried to hide that fact by having Ragatha think he was looking at her in a "weird" way. His reward/payment is a free hand to entertain himself and perks like having "keys to everywhere" in the circus.
i ultimately think that whether it started for a different purpose the current goal of the circus is to create mindless A.I superweapons, the Abstracted human minds. Caine's role is to distract them with nonsense games while watching them slowly give up and Abstract. I suspect that the "Exit door" he created was designed to push Kaufmo over the edge. Appearing only to him, disappearing, and finally to be pointless when he does get inside.
Being that it just accomplished its task Caine didnt know to disable it yet so Pomni got caught up with it.... maybe because she and Kaufmo are both clown/jester types? 🤔
Bubble's a little freak. I have absolutely no clue what they even could've said, but it was probably well worth the censor. lmao
apparently! especially since it wasn't bleeped the same way as the others

Kinger is really a good person for comforting Ragatha. He mide be a bit crazy and is physicaly unstable but a good friend (I think) ^^
I love that one of the crocodiles is doing the Pizza Tower Peppino taunts!
Thanks for this.
Pomni earning best girl point and Cain, maybe not sure if he's an NPC.
"He's Michael in the Backrooms at a party" would be a VERY different song that I now need in my life. Why did you do this 😂😂😂😂😂
truly bc everytime i get sent to the Backrooms in modded Lethal Company I sing "Michael in the Backrooms at a party" to myself
I believe Caine's horrified expression when he talked about confusing npc's for humans was referring to Bubble. I think Bubble got in from a game, and, as an AI, he stayed in the circus long enough to be invulnerable to Caine's powers. "Why are you like this?" "You PARASITE!" "Bubble, you can't say that"
HELL YEAH! *crying* This episode made US CRYYY!
LITERALLY BLUBBERING
Oh yeah no, Bubble was saying smth dirty - GooseWorx said that out of our main cast, Bubble is the one with the most 'Slutty energy' 😭
I love this so much 🫧 Bubble kin fr
This episode solidified my belief that Kinger is the definition of 'He's a little confused, but he's trying'.
bless his heart
You're tripping out, just not about the music. Just kidding, you rock.
im so honored ♥
Can't believe gummigoo died of ligma
the deadliest disease we know
A.I. or not, I'm still pissed at Caine and the writers for that.
I mean, come on! He would added something interesting in the story. Plus, I just want Pomni to be happy.
you and me both, gamer
*would have added. Sorry was distracted. 🤣🤣🤣
"he looks like a thumb" 😭
he doesss thoooo
Be more chill referenceeeedd 14:56
ayeeee
This is totally off-topic but “WOWIE WOW-WOW!!” at 8:02 gave me flashbacks to Junie B Jones LOL
(If you don’t know, she was the main character of a kids chapter book series and that was one of her catchphrases)
BRO I fucking LOVED Junie B Jones when I was a kid
@@NevaehEvol ONE OF US!! So many great quotes
“Then I runned out of there speedy quick! Because I was in BIG TROUBLE, that’s why!!”

Why is Nevaeh like one of the only channels I actually listen to when they ask to press the like? Like your content and reactions are just soo good, even if I only found your channel a few months ago with Hazbin honestly one of my favorite reaction channels on this side of youtube. Thanks for the video, have a good day!
oh my gosh, you are so sweet ;; i'm happy to hear you're enjoying the videos!!!
“Maybe I’m being a hater”
O O………………crap how did you find out part of my Neveah alias list O O;;;
So with Ragatha and the Fudge, is Pomni Babette? jk
Also, GUMMIGOOOOOOO!!!!!!
I have a theory that Jax is an AI. I don't have that much evidence for it, but I have a couple reasons for thinking that:
-In the first episode, Jax is shown a) seeming to feel pain when Zooble chokes him, b) being out of breath from running, and c) stating "I can still be hungry, can't I?" It's outright stated that they can't be hungry, and no other character is shown to actually feel pain when injured outside of when Ragatha was glitching in episode 1. The being out of breath part may not be that big a deal; Pomni does start breathing harder when she gets freaked out, but I don't think we've seen any other character panting from physical exertion.
-When he says "Aren't you supposed to be submissive and agreeable?" it seems like he's almost got keywords that he uses to profile other people, and when their behavior doesn't line up with that profile he gets kinda put off by it. Like he doesn't understand the intricacies of real human personalities despite having deeper layers himself. Admittedly that's a symptom of autism, but considering the context I think that Jax is an AI, not an autistic person... Would be kind of ironic if my autistic ass encountered an autistic character and said "You know what? AI." though.
I was looking forward to see your take on this Episode, this was funny and not just due to the Episode itself,
But before this Episode came out, I had watched a Video that was trying to make a full Episode with just what we had at the time, which was just the Teaser and I gotta say, while nothing everything was one to one, I’d say there was some things, like Pomni’s Dream, how Gangle would lose her Comedy Mask again and the Syrup, was spot on(there was also the Scene where Gummigoo is looking back at his Buddy who was doing the Pizza Tower References at the time), it’s was quite interesting to see.
Although, of course, as I was figuring at the time too, those where the only things that were Spot on, since it was all under the assumption that the Entire Episode would happen in the Location where the Adventure would be taking place in, an assumption that I was under too,
but no, we once again ended up with a situation where Pomni went off course and got somewhere she probably shouldn’t be, except she had someone with her this time,
Well, at least she actually partook in the Adventure this time, unlike in the Pilot, even if it was just in the Beginning.
Anyway, about the Episode itself,
I’d say having this Episode take place just the Day after the Pilot is pretty fair,
since, assuming that they do Adventures every Day, this would be Pomni’s Actual First Adventure, since she didn’t actually partake in the one meant for her when she first arrived, even though like i said she was only part of it halfway,
Also, it also made the Funeral Scene at the end feel more fitting, by the way about that Scene, I find it very interesting that Jax ended up not being part of the Funeral and who he was not featured amongst the Hands that prevented Pomni’s Metaphorical Fall, now that part could just be due to him not being part of the Funeral, but considering what the Curators has said about Jax, i think it’s a detail that’s worth keeping in mind for the Future.
Anyway, with all of that now being out of the way, i am now left wondering:
Will every Episode take place just the Day after the Previous One or could we expect Episodes to have at least a couple of Days in between them from now on?
Will Pomni get out of the Adventure and into some kind of Out of bounds moment every Episode? If so, while that would be interesting, I would appreciate to see at least one Episode where Pomni stays in the Adventure all the way through, because I don’t think we need a Out-of-Bounds Moment every time to make a Episode worthwhile.
On to of that, will Pomni bond with more NPCs in one way or another and will she end up having them learn something about themselves too?
I also wonder if we’ll ever get to see Loo and Gummigoo again? Now, I am aware that the Candy Canyon Kingdom was probably just meant to be for this Episode, hence why it was sent off the way it did, still I would like to see some kind of Aftermath to what Jax did.
Also, i wonder if we’ll ever get to a point in time where Pomni won’t stutter all the time or at least not when it counts? If so, i will look forward to see what might lead us there.
Anyway, regardless of it all, this Episode has made me even more excited to see how this Show will play out, I can’t wait for more Episodes.
What do you think could be next?
While the last episode ended mocking Pomni's suffering, this episode ended with taking her suffering more seriously, with her learning that she has a family in the circus.
$5 says TADC works off Chaotic rules. The device uploads YOU, and your ass goes on autopilot until you log out.
Nevaeh, "Mmm, this pie is delicious, what is it, chicken?"
No, crow.
can we all just take a moment to say JUSTICE FOR GUMMIGOO
I never thought of that in the 2.0 version he will probably come back meaner
DUDE I STARTED BAWLING AFTER SEEING GANGLE’S DRAWING…
