7:30 Funny you said this as the creator is Jewish :) and the many on the team are. We have a good mix with an interfaith council that guides us. We would love to chat. Sending you an email.
As confusing as this thing was, and despite how we all just reflexively make fun of everything here, I will say this project at least seemed sincere in its core message of unity and anti-hate. It’s not like those PragerU cartoons that act all coy to hide a very sinister agenda like ‘What? We’re just promoting free thinking and asking questions… also kids? Was slavery really that bad?’
I thinks it’s interesting how Taekwonhindu is the most out-of-place in so many ways. She’s the only non-Abrahamic representitive, she’s the only one without a distinct accent, and Hinduism is the only religion that didn’t get a specific religious leader (like a Pandit, Pujari, or Guru) for the “Interfaith Committee”. Despite this, she seems like she’s the most generally useful member of the team. A part of me thinks this show is just Nimrod’s way of sharing his magical yoga waifu with the world.
I know they can't include everyone, but the five-man band is a literal trope so it shouldn't be too hard to do, why couldn't they have fit a Buddhist in the gang? Or a Sikh if they really wanted to go the extra mile, especially since this show is ostensibly framed as "religious people with combat powers" and Sikhism has a strong martial/self-defense aspect to it.
Nevermind that Hinduism isn't even a monotheistic religion like the abrahamic ones, it has a pantheon consisting of multiple gods. So apparently Vishnu is now also the only god that exists/matters.
@@llamaczechI guess, because of context I assumed I assumed "supressed" meant "underrepresented". My stupidity does not make that comment any less conspiratiorial though. To be honest it makes less sence now that you pointed out I missed the intention? Did that guy tried to say Judaism is not a major religion?
@dziewiaty he said the representation only applies to the major religions, and your argument against it was basically "what? I didn't see any minor religions, what are you on about?"
At this point I cannot distinguish natural stupidity/genuine dumb shit from satire/sarcasm, because of all the people who do either with a straight face... 😢
Not rly... soo... the guy who made this is a religious person but also hated how all religions tend to fight against one another and wanted to make a show about all religions working together to save the world instead of them bickering.
@@WokioWolfy That's the wild thing, right? Like it feels like it should be satire, but it's 100% sincere. But also, when you really think about it, it's not even a bad message or anything? This is literally just "multicultural teamwork over bigotry" ft. a bunch of stereotypes that take shots at everyone. Which is hilarious, but also, it's weirdly kind-of based???
Why did they even make him a ninja? Ig it could be a pun like "ninja STARS" but he doesn't fight with those. Imo (as a Muslim) they should have made sumuslim a niqabi and called her like Ninjabi or smth and made Ninjew Jew Jitsu
Just like the Care Bears' signature ability is blasting things with stomach lasers. These shows really take the phrase "Kill them with kindness" literally.
"Kids' media these days is too violent, so I wanted to make a show about friendship and coexistence." Oh, so the heroes actively try to redeem the villains and address their motivations in a constructive and compassionate manner? "Nah they beat them up."
Gonna be real weird if they introduce an actual Shintoism character from Japan. They just side-eye Ninjew doing the hand signs like "Hey, uhh... can you not.....?"
so that creator saying he worked at disney channel and bringing up power rangers in relation to it really got to us, so we just checked it out. there's a disney channel in israel and it seems they aired multiple power rangers series. dunno who else would be as desperate to know this information as we were but, seems the guy didn't work for disney in america, seems he worked for em in israel
Disney had full ownership the Power Rangers in all parts of the world (excluding Japan, where the franchise has always been owned by Toei) from 2001-2010. There was an influx of Disney produced Power Rangers merch, newer episodes would often air on ABC, ABC Family, and Toon Disney, and the Rangers would also appear at the Disney Parks, often doing flips and action poses. Disney didn’t really need the Power Rangers franchise after they bought Marvel, which is probably why they sold all of their Power Rangers stuff back to Haim Saban in 2010.
I'm glad there are folks like you who care enough to get to the bottom of these fairly mundane and insubstantial questions. The creator working for Disney Israel rather than the Disney corporation in America actually explains a lot.
My theory is this was a Thief and the Cobbler situation where someone had a vague idea of a show and got competent animators to make some scenes but forgot to make an actual story.
For the horse-napping question, the scientists shot the horses with a "reanimator" gun. Reanimate implies that they were not artificial horse sculptures but at one point were real living horses.
47:49-48:02 Okay, long story short: Haim Saban had full non-Japanese rights to the Power Rangers, and would eventually merge his company into the children’s programming division of Fox, forming Fox Kids Worldwide, later known as Fox Family Worldwide, after News Corp. purchased The Family Channel from Pat Robertson/CBN, and changed the channel’s name to Fox Family. This new company proved to be a money pit, leading News Corp. to put it up for sale. This led to 2001, when The Walt Disney Company purchased Fox Family Worldwide, and its various assets for an estimated 5 billion dollars. Once that deal was completed, Fox Family was changed to ABC Family, and Saban Entertainment was changed to BVS (Buena Vista Studios) Entertainment. The BVS library was being plastered all over the various Disney owned networks, but the Power Rangers seasons were the only new productions to come from BVS (usually under the Jetix brand). Disney would eventually sell the Power Rangers franchise (as well as all of Saban’s other live action and Anime dubs) back to Haim Saban in 2010, with Saban selling his entertainment content to Hasbro in 2018.
I might be reading WAY too hard into it, but in the context of a religious children's show, a pair of scientists trying to force kids into coming with them / "be their friends" really makes me raise an eyebrow. Again, might be reading too much into it, but it's the fact that this is trying to push religion onto kids that makes me wonder what their motivations to portraying scientists as villains are.
I think it's really weird how Its a jewish stereotype, a muslim stereotype, a hindu stereotype, and then instead of a Christian stereotype its a soul train black stereotype. Like I get that Christianity is statistically more common in black communities right now, but shouldn't he be like a pastor or something?
They're trying to appeal to kids, they might've thought him being a pastor would be lame. Chris Cross definitely does come across like a "cool youth counsellor" kind of Christian.
"Ana laser" sounds like a pun for "analyzer", as in "Jews are good at analyzing financial documents". Could also be a reference to Marjorie Taylor Greene's "Jewish space lasers." Could be a bit of both!
50:59 so what he’s saying is… it seems today, that all you see: is violence and movies and sex on tv? And he’s asking where are those good old fashion values from which we used to rely?
Well we're lucky he's a family guy, We're lucky he's a man who, positively can do, all the things that make us both laugh and cry. To reiterate, he's a family guy.

1:40. Actually, There is monotheistic vertient in Hinduism based on the Hindu holy-book Upanisad. Basiacally, they believe Shiva, Vishnu, Brahma... all are just noble titles for the same God.
Made more sense after discovery their christianity specialist was a pastor and not a priest. Now the question is if the character is just that pastor's OC.
Your editing on Adum's videos has been getting really decent. Have you considered doing a long form video and making a "Best of Adum Plaze 2022" that we never seemed to get, Olivia?
@@YMSHighlights Ahhhh. He needs to get on it and do the last two years of the Best Of's then XD I kid, I kid. Still, you're doing well with your added visual gags and jokes. ^_^ I've really been enjoying them.
I crowdfunded , just because I want to see this guys battle a villain that is an atheist scientist that is so globalized, they/them travel around the world to attend conventions in an animal costume.
Between pitching an overtly religious show to Disney Channel and using Robot Chicken as an example of kid's animation, this guy is either disingenuous or REALLY out of touch with the animation industry. ngl it's giving me Butch Hartman vibes (though, these guys are honest about this being a religious project at least)
@GapingGorble I really agree with you on this one. Robot Chicken is aired on…I don’t know - Adult Swim. And somehow this creator uses the show as an example of how children’s media is corrupt today? So he’s telling me that a show like Bluey is also too sexualized, violent, and missing the right values? Yeah right.
I really hope this guy is just extremely out of touch but ultimately sincere, because as silly (and possibly offensive) as this show is, I find it charming in its own way, especially after hearing this guy talk about how he wanted it to be inclusive. And for what it's worth, other than some seemingly self-deprecating humor from the Jewish creator and the weird scientist villains, it seems like its heart is mostly(?) in the right place.
I havent seen anyone point out that the special side of Ninjew was "Basketball Star". I think its a less known stereotype type that Jewish men of a certain age are obsessed with basketball lol
46:51 Mostly just Christians that have the main issue with admitting "Abrahamic" is a term as opposed to Judeo-Christian, if they even allow that word to be uttered from their mouthes. Jews are directly Abrahamic since they made it and the rest are its derivative. Islam has localizations of the preceding texts as part of their canon pool of texts. Christian's ingrained middle manning in their relation with God, in their texts, and from whom they are to learn the words and context of their text, makes them idolatrous to the other two who have to read their texts and "interface" directly with the one God instead of a segmented God wherein the messenger is an aspect instead of just a messenger.
This actually doesn't seem too bad, all things considered. If anything it's a lot tamer than expected. Bit misguided in places but better than most religious cartoons.
This seems tailor made by people who hope to get carried by hatewatchers They try to offend everybody and nothing else, no joke, no message or story, only imitation
YES! I've been wanting Adam to watch this ever since I found out about it (I found out about it through DeadwingDork reacting to it on a stream, and then saw Saberspark do videos on it).
About the confusion as to why they included a non-abrahamic religious representation. They allowed hinduism to sit at the religiously accepted table is because from my understanding, hinduism has accepted Jesus and Yahweh as another worshiped deity of their polytheistic pantheon. Which is kind of silly considering that God is a very jealous and vengeful god. Pretty sure God would sooner accept an atheist into heaven before a polytheistic worshipper or a worshiper of a rival religion.
I think it's more reasonable to say the reason is that many branches of Hinduism view there as being a single creator god with all other gods being small aspects of that god. It's really quite interesting and it's important to remember that there are literal tons of Hindu sub-groups, so no one size will fit all... not that I think this show gives a fuck...
Depends on the interpretation of God, tbh. In Christian Gnosticism, the reason Jesus was so chill and peaceful was because he was an incarnation of the True God, who exists outside the universe, created the human soul, and genuinely wants us to be happy and to eventually leave the material world behind to return to them. The jealous "kill those who don't believe in me" God of the Old Testament is the False God, Yaldabaoth, who tricked humanity into worshipping him. Point being-even within sects of Christianity, people disagree on what God really wants, or what they're like, or what parts of the Bible are apocryphal or not. Purgatory was canon, and then it wasn't. Jews and Christians believe in the same God, but the mechanics of the afterlife are completely different (IIRC, there is no Hell-as-punishment as understood in Christianity in Judaism, but there is a place called Sheol, which is a more general "land of the dead"). One believer's "God is a vengeful and jealous God" is another believer's "God's pretty chill and just wants us to have a good time down here and look after each other."
I think they include a Hindu character because there is actually a monotheistic vertient in Hinduism based on the Hindu holy-book Upanisad. Basiacally, they believe Shiva, Vishnu, Brahma... all are just noble titles for the same God.
Lol Sonex in the chat, like, can I give a reccomendation too?? And Scoot having a custom Pepper Coyote theme for his wrestling intro is the coolest thing ever
Wouldn't the fact that aliens exist question essential aspects of almost all these religions? Wouldn't they be like "whats happening my parents indoctrinated me in embracing false beliefs" But no, they would just fight them It's kinda realistic i guess
It's funny you say that because the existence of the Jewish faith and the fact Jews don't accept Jesus actually proves he wasn't the Messiah because he can't fulfil prophecy if he doesn't and if he doesn't he isn't, the existence of Judaism makes Christianity a paradox but Christians historically have just killed Jews for that.
From what I've seen and heard, some religious people don't really disbelief the existence of aliens, the quran does mention Cosmology and a decent amount of christians and jews take their religious books to be more metaphorical rather than literal
@rusherI think it is just the tall villain and short villain hero (or feminine and masculine duo) cliche. Edit: also both villains are male im sure, there's also the feminine male villain trope too
I guess there is only one supreme being in Hinduism, though the view of that varies and it has nothing to do with the Yahweh belief that originates from Mesopotamia. So you have to squint your eyes quite a lot in order to make the hindu work with this idea. ... Maybe they worship the Kabbalah interpretation of Ein Sof, which is much closer to the idea of Brahman? I dunno, we're clearly not meant to think that much about it.
Instead of the Hindu lady the fourth one should have been Joseph Smith. It would have fit with the Abrahamic theme. Maybe have him be the dumb one of the group.
Not gonna post it here because no, but their names combined are an antisemitic slur. It’s also why kyle’s super hero is “Human Kite.” Cartman calls him that slur pretty often.
@@ElvenSonic Thanks, the wiki of it was quite interesting. Only the first letter of "Kyle" is used, for those still wondering. That said, this still feels like Voldemort, lol.
I think this show was made with good intentions at heart, but I find it ironic that its creator talks about "Unconditional Love" as the ultimate, fundamental divine force (an idea I can actually get behind), but still felt the need for all the show's protagonists to be worshippers of a Personal God.
The Hindu lady being able to communicate with animals sounds awfully stereotypical to me. It's like the creator's thought process was "Hinduism is from India, and India has a bunch of exotic animals, so of course our representative Hindu would associate with them!"
Wait... If this is a religious thing, shouldn't GG (God's Gang) have tried to help the aliens find a solution to their problem that didn't cause harm to others? Instead they just fought them and that was it. What about loving thy neighbor and stuff?
I think the Lebron Jordan joke was that thr black guy doesn't know about Basketball because the Hebrew guy is the Basketball fan. He also said NBH, and im prett6 sure you're allowed to say NBA. What would NBH even stand for?
The whale thing is because for centuries people hunted whales for their ambergrise. Ambergrise was used by eastern people for potions, and spices and western people used it to stabilize perfumes.
But ambergrise doesn't look like that ... And it's a perfume ingredient not something that smells good on its own like you pointed out. So it's probably just dumb anyways
@CaptLuser dude I had to spend way too much time looking up whales for a project. I'd take that nerd emoji with honor if it was me. Ain't nothing wrong with it. It probably isn't meant for me but you commented after so it's literally pointing at me.
@@cameronroy2129 I'm not saying it makes sense, I'm saying that's why they're stealing whales. Because someone heard that perfumes were made from whales.
An issue with that in-relation to the show... Blue Whales do not produce ambergris; only sperm whales and pygmy sperm whales do. Not that I'm surprised that the writers for this show didn't know that particular fact.
The hindu thing actualy work but you kind of have read a certain amount about hindus to get it. Analazer: analisis talmud study, the thing about ninjew being short is a smallest of the three. I think the creater was going for a "we may believ different things, but we can all join hands and work together" moral. actually he stated that. Dove. of peace.
I feel like it wouldve made more sense to make the girl character a Sikh rather then Hindu, sinch Sikhs by contrast are Monotheists from Hinduism's pluralty of personal Gods, why they picked one that is radically different then the abrahamic faiths is beyound my guess.
It's like she's not only the token female, but also the token non-Abrahamic Faith. Meanwhile, Buddhists, Pagans, etc., and of course Humanists/Atheists are completely excluded from their "celebration of inclusiveness."
Not exactly. As I commented before, there is a monotheistic vertient in Hinduism based on the Hindu holy-book Upanisad. Basiacally, they believe Shiva, Vishnu, Brahma... all are just noble titles for the same God.
Gotta say, as ridiculous as it looks, I'm pretty happy this exists just to have something wholesome for once. It seems today that all you see is violence in movies and sex on tv.
Surprisingly inoffensively enjoyable for me lol. Maybe having the banter commentary probably helped with that but the comedy wasn’t nearly as bad as I would have anticipated and actually some decent moments of animation. But still, I feel like all of these guys would be too busy bickering with each other over religious disagreements 90% of the time to actually get ish done lol.

I really hope this guy is just extremely out of touch but ultimately sincere, because as silly (and possibly offensive) as this show is, I find it charming in its own way, especially after hearing this guy talk about how he wanted it to be inclusive. And for what it's worth, other than some seemingly self-deprecating humor from the Jewish creator and the weird scientist villains, it seems like its heart is mostly(?) in the right place.
Is Ana Laser a play on the Jewish Space Laser meme?
I think that and analyzer
This is just that “celebrate our differences” joke from Wonder Showzen, but taken seriously lmao
Alright Scoot is reacting to this.
I havent seen anyone point out that the special side of Ninjew was "Basketball Star". I think its a less known stereotype type that Jewish men of a certain age are obsessed with basketball lol
46:51 Mostly just Christians that have the main issue with admitting "Abrahamic" is a term as opposed to Judeo-Christian, if they even allow that word to be uttered from their mouthes.
Jews are directly Abrahamic since they made it and the rest are its derivative.
Islam has localizations of the preceding texts as part of their canon pool of texts.
Christian's ingrained middle manning in their relation with God, in their texts, and from whom they are to learn the words and context of their text, makes them idolatrous to the other two who have to read their texts and "interface" directly with the one God instead of a segmented God wherein the messenger is an aspect instead of just a messenger.
RIP Scoot… thanks for the laughs…
Classic kid growing up in a religious household problem, hating Sunday School. Hated it myself, and don’t miss it at all.
This actually doesn't seem too bad, all things considered. If anything it's a lot tamer than expected. Bit misguided in places but better than most religious cartoons.
This seems tailor made by people who hope to get carried by hatewatchers
They try to offend everybody and nothing else, no joke, no message or story, only imitation
48:07
Nimrod: And Disney thought I was Goofy!
Scoot: Starts furiously fapping
This is so inexplicably high-quality, lame, and earnest that its difficult to hate on too much
Also, there are actually a large number of monotheistic Hindus
34:25 thought they were going to pull a Venture Brothers-tier MECHA SHIVA here.
YES! I've been wanting Adam to watch this ever since I found out about it (I found out about it through DeadwingDork reacting to it on a stream, and then saw Saberspark do videos on it).
48:07 of course Disney doesnt want interfaith stuff, Mickey is from Valhalla as we all know
That whole segment confidently being wrong about taekwondo as a Chinese thing made me crack up so hard.
RIP Scoot. You will be missed.
About the confusion as to why they included a non-abrahamic religious representation. They allowed hinduism to sit at the religiously accepted table is because from my understanding, hinduism has accepted Jesus and Yahweh as another worshiped deity of their polytheistic pantheon. Which is kind of silly considering that God is a very jealous and vengeful god. Pretty sure God would sooner accept an atheist into heaven before a polytheistic worshipper or a worshiper of a rival religion.
I think it's more reasonable to say the reason is that many branches of Hinduism view there as being a single creator god with all other gods being small aspects of that god. It's really quite interesting and it's important to remember that there are literal tons of Hindu sub-groups, so no one size will fit all... not that I think this show gives a fuck...
Depends on the interpretation of God, tbh. In Christian Gnosticism, the reason Jesus was so chill and peaceful was because he was an incarnation of the True God, who exists outside the universe, created the human soul, and genuinely wants us to be happy and to eventually leave the material world behind to return to them. The jealous "kill those who don't believe in me" God of the Old Testament is the False God, Yaldabaoth, who tricked humanity into worshipping him.
Point being-even within sects of Christianity, people disagree on what God really wants, or what they're like, or what parts of the Bible are apocryphal or not. Purgatory was canon, and then it wasn't. Jews and Christians believe in the same God, but the mechanics of the afterlife are completely different (IIRC, there is no Hell-as-punishment as understood in Christianity in Judaism, but there is a place called Sheol, which is a more general "land of the dead"). One believer's "God is a vengeful and jealous God" is another believer's "God's pretty chill and just wants us to have a good time down here and look after each other."
@@gonzoGnostalgicgod I love Christian gnostocism, it's an absolutely fascinating sect
I think they include a Hindu character because there is actually a monotheistic vertient in Hinduism based on the Hindu holy-book Upanisad. Basiacally, they believe Shiva, Vishnu, Brahma... all are just noble titles for the same God.
@@gonzoGnostalgicdoes the chill god still not like gay people?
Lol Sonex in the chat, like, can I give a reccomendation too?? And Scoot having a custom Pepper Coyote theme for his wrestling intro is the coolest thing ever
Wouldn't the fact that aliens exist question essential aspects of almost all these religions? Wouldn't they be like "whats happening my parents indoctrinated me in embracing false beliefs"
But no, they would just fight them
It's kinda realistic i guess
Nah, it's fine because the aliens are trans, lol
(girl with weird deep voice, short man... you can't tell me that's not the intention)
There are some more eccentric Christians that believe aliens are demons.
It's funny you say that because the existence of the Jewish faith and the fact Jews don't accept Jesus actually proves he wasn't the Messiah because he can't fulfil prophecy if he doesn't and if he doesn't he isn't, the existence of Judaism makes Christianity a paradox but Christians historically have just killed Jews for that.
From what I've seen and heard, some religious people don't really disbelief the existence of aliens, the quran does mention Cosmology and a decent amount of christians and jews take their religious books to be more metaphorical rather than literal
@rusherI think it is just the tall villain and short villain hero (or feminine and masculine duo) cliche.
Edit: also both villains are male im sure, there's also the feminine male villain trope too
I guess there is only one supreme being in Hinduism, though the view of that varies and it has nothing to do with the Yahweh belief that originates from Mesopotamia. So you have to squint your eyes quite a lot in order to make the hindu work with this idea. ... Maybe they worship the Kabbalah interpretation of Ein Sof, which is much closer to the idea of Brahman? I dunno, we're clearly not meant to think that much about it.
The whole thing of religious people is making totally nonsensical things work for them, so... I think they will be fine. XD 😊
When I think of Cris Cross is the two boys that rap and wore their clothes backwards.
Instead of the Hindu lady the fourth one should have been Joseph Smith. It would have fit with the Abrahamic theme. Maybe have him be the dumb one of the group.
The "Kyle + Ike" joke escaped me -_-
Same!
Not gonna post it here because no, but their names combined are an antisemitic slur. It’s also why kyle’s super hero is “Human Kite.” Cartman calls him that slur pretty often.
@@ElvenSonic Thanks, the wiki of it was quite interesting.
Only the first letter of "Kyle" is used, for those still wondering.
That said, this still feels like Voldemort, lol.
Ninjew sounds kind of like Kyle's cousin also named Kyle.
I love PayPal and I enjoy Scoot, if only there was some way to combine the two together.
Your avatar is pretty dope, and these clips rock!! ❤️
I can’t believe we’re getting a Minoriteam reboot in 2024
La Dove has to be a reference to the Dove of Peace. Peace through asskicking but peace nonetheless.
Peace through it is peaceful when everyone is dead...
Glad that Scoot also reacting on this one......😅😅😅😅😅😅
I think this show was made with good intentions at heart, but I find it ironic that its creator talks about "Unconditional Love" as the ultimate, fundamental divine force (an idea I can actually get behind), but still felt the need for all the show's protagonists to be worshippers of a Personal God.
The Hindu lady being able to communicate with animals sounds awfully stereotypical to me. It's like the creator's thought process was "Hinduism is from India, and India has a bunch of exotic animals, so of course our representative Hindu would associate with them!"
"Hindus? They're the guys who worship the elephants, right?"
Adum and Pals should from now on just do whatever Olivia tells them to do tbh
17:52 I made it into a YMS Highlights video!!!
Ana later might not have been the best choice when the Jewish Space Lazer conspiracy exists
Wait... If this is a religious thing, shouldn't GG (God's Gang) have tried to help the aliens find a solution to their problem that didn't cause harm to others? Instead they just fought them and that was it. What about loving thy neighbor and stuff?
I love how the jewish chap has blonde hair and blue eyes. Then again, Hitler had brown hair and brown eyes, sooooooooo......
He's the Jew-bermench
I think the Lebron Jordan joke was that thr black guy doesn't know about Basketball because the Hebrew guy is the Basketball fan. He also said NBH, and im prett6 sure you're allowed to say NBA. What would NBH even stand for?
Do those horses have souls?
1:25 Kinda funny cos Jamal from Slumdog was Muslim, not Hindu. It's crucial to one point in the story lol 🤓
The whale thing is because for centuries people hunted whales for their ambergrise. Ambergrise was used by eastern people for potions, and spices and western people used it to stabilize perfumes.
But ambergrise doesn't look like that ...
And it's a perfume ingredient not something that smells good on its own like you pointed out. So it's probably just dumb anyways
☝️🤓
@CaptLuser dude I had to spend way too much time looking up whales for a project. I'd take that nerd emoji with honor if it was me.
Ain't nothing wrong with it. It probably isn't meant for me but you commented after so it's literally pointing at me.
@@cameronroy2129 I'm not saying it makes sense, I'm saying that's why they're stealing whales. Because someone heard that perfumes were made from whales.
An issue with that in-relation to the show... Blue Whales do not produce ambergris; only sperm whales and pygmy sperm whales do. Not that I'm surprised that the writers for this show didn't know that particular fact.
Nimrod turned into Family guy. "It seems today that all you see is violence in movies and sex on TV."
love how they just forgot the horses had been taken care of. It's 5 minutes yet it alluded them. Incredible
Oh fuck yeah Scoots on this one
The hindu thing actualy work but you kind of have read a certain amount about hindus to get it. Analazer: analisis talmud study, the thing about ninjew being short is a smallest of the three. I think the creater was going for a "we may believ different things, but we can all join hands and work together" moral. actually he stated that. Dove. of peace.
I'm convinced this is either the greatest trolling in history or we've found a new Breen in Nimrod
"I used to work for the Disney channels"
Can't name one Disney show.
Scoot did not get Adam's Pokemon shorts joke.
I feel like it wouldve made more sense to make the girl character a Sikh rather then Hindu, sinch Sikhs by contrast are Monotheists from Hinduism's pluralty of personal Gods, why they picked one that is radically different then the abrahamic faiths is beyound my guess.
It's like she's not only the token female, but also the token non-Abrahamic Faith. Meanwhile, Buddhists, Pagans, etc., and of course Humanists/Atheists are completely excluded from their "celebration of inclusiveness."
I got an ad for this on twitter and went slightly insane trying to figure out where I saw it from
“One god one love.”
Except Hindus believe in multiple gods, none of them being Yahweh/Allah.
Not exactly. As I commented before, there is a monotheistic vertient in Hinduism based on the Hindu holy-book Upanisad. Basiacally, they believe Shiva, Vishnu, Brahma... all are just noble titles for the same God.
Gotta say, as ridiculous as it looks, I'm pretty happy this exists just to have something wholesome for once. It seems today that all you see is violence in movies and sex on tv.
i enjoyed the saberspark video
Getting some popcorn for this one
Is this Unicorn Eternal Warriors?
Surprisingly inoffensively enjoyable for me lol. Maybe having the banter commentary probably helped with that but the comedy wasn’t nearly as bad as I would have anticipated and actually some decent moments of animation. But still, I feel like all of these guys would be too busy bickering with each other over religious disagreements 90% of the time to actually get ish done lol.
ninjew literally sounds like kyle from south park. Not kyle 2 the other kyle
Kyle’s cousin, Kyle.
