Got all the bells and whistles too, Stockholm syndrome, neglected wound care, influenced age regression both mental and physical, good thing durpleton just wants to focus on his own healing through being a good dad and rolemodel and is just too naive to see where he was stepping to get there, in the end of the day stabby was another victim and byproduct of a war he had no power to end, and knowing why the war started and the reason it all came to be was because some self hating idiot decided to mutilate himself to try and get some, only to turn into two more self hating idiots and still getting none, i too, would prefer to trow all that in the trash and enjoy the free childhood and newfound family, more power to both of them, two problems that solve eachother. Remarkable writing.
I like the implication that even though they were basically his mindless drones that the Nowhere King still gave them Centaurworld type goofy names but edgy
A thought: Durpleton's problem not listening to Stabby is just the cycle of bad parenting continuing. Good on him for breaking it AND telling his parents what for, as well as admitting his faults
Yeah. He also didn’t listen to stabby at first just like how his dad never listened to him. But he never have any malicious intent. I think durpaltin really just wanted to give stabby the parental love that he never got him self. It’s honestly rly sad. I’m glad that the farting giraffe man and his lizard son are happy
@@Gooberwares that's what I think as well, he might be 43 in his old human life but I think when a person becomes a minotaur they become a new being entirely.
@@JWeb66 Yeah, and this explanation makes it wholesome as well so Im okay with that.^^ Maybe as Stabby starts to ”re-grow up” his mind will start to ”catch down” with his body so he can have a relatively normal childhood, teen years, and then new adulthood. Kinda like Benjamin Button, just not at all like that.XD
I love the implication that stabby could've run away from the beginning but stay with durpleton and only ran away because his adoptive dad refused to listen to him
I love that Rider is so confused and uncomfortable around him even after he saved her life. Now that he’s good, she probably still feels a bit guilty about stabbing him.
I think I just realized why the magic of Centaurworld turned Philip into a toddler; I don't know if the show gives a definite answer to when the Nowhere King was locked in the in-between, but since the mysterious woman still looked young when she sealed the portal, and since there didn't seem to be any minotaurs when the herd officially got together, and since Durpleton was a child then, I would wager a guess that it's been a long time since the last minotaur was created... and Philip says that he's 43... My point is, there is a chance that Philip was a toddler when he was turned into a minotaur
Oooh, that’s messed up. I mean, the whole process of making Minotaurs is messed up, but Philip being a toddler when the Elk took him to the In Between & fused him with a snake is a whole new level of screwed up.
Also at the end most of the minotaurs that were transformed when living in centaurworld emded up having adult bodies in comparison to stabby. So the theory holds
I figured it was that the world will adjust you physically to match the change in your mental state. So as Horse started to accept the ways of the world more, her appearance changed. Stabby began to accept being the young 'son' that derplton wanted and liking it so he got a younger appearance. That could also correlate with how centaurs age. If they remain youthful mentally they may stay young looking longer. When we saw the elktaur he was drawn more like the human world rather than the centaurs and we know he wanted to be human, so his mental state could have taken the traditional centaur world look away from him as he desired to be something else.
The "Something is wrong" still irks me and makes me think that maybe we should be worried about the ambient magic of Centaurworld and what it does to people who spend too much time there.
I imagine Centaurworld's magic is probably a completely different feeling for Stabby considering that he's already technically enchanted and transformed by evil magic.
it seems to run off off if one feels as if they belong in centaurworld. it also seems the magic intigrates temporary modifications into the change, example the knife, which seems to have become inigrated into stabby. if you notice, the gatekeeper elktaur(later nowhere king/general) looked far more detailed and "real" due to never feeling like he belonged in centaurworld vs water baby who solidly knows she belongs in centaurworld and never loses that squishy "childlike" style.
I think it's the key/portal. Elk was trying to "fix" it when that lady show how the portal affects her vegetables. So it's not a centaurworld thing, but an side effect of an error in the key.
Does that mean that they will change if they spend to much time on earth or if they used to live on earth and then moved to centaur world a long time ago because centaurs are half human
Now that you think about, all of the members (except ched) are immensely powerful in their own ways but decide to goof around instead of defending themselves.
Here's a really depressing thought. What if the reason staby acts so child like when he excepted being durpletons son instead of acting more mature like mabie a teenager. *Was because he was a small child when the nowhere king turned him into a minotaur*
Well, since Durpleton is 47, and he was a child when presumably the war had left Centaurworld and the Nowhere King couldn’t create new Minotaurs… oh. Oh Goose. Oh no.
"Why is riders knife still in there?!" Because Horse, you don't want to remove the object stabbing someone. It will just increase the loss of blood. I'm surprised you don't know that Horse.
I literally made this BECAUSE I couldn't find any stabby content on youtube. Never made a video before so I had to teach myself some things real fast but it was really fun! I'm thinking of making more maybe
I like the subtle callback that Stabby's final scene has him performing on stage, when he was so indignant over not being allowed to perform on stage pre-transformation.
@@marioalonso8658 He had, at avery turn, he scaped in the tunels so he could have scaped anytime latter, he just don't want anymore and yes maybe are some kiddnap element there but he used to live as an expendable foot soldier who no one bothered on look after him and was destined to die in a senseless war. Under those conditions his life improved.
@@marioalonso8658transformation doesn't randomly happens in centaur world that's why "the woman" never transformed, only people that are comfortable in centaur world do so
Hes my favorite chaeacter in the 2nd season and this is exactly what I hoped would happen after he was shown to survive at the end of the last episode of the 1st season.
I was so scared when the trailer only showed him a once or twice I thought Stabby wouldn't be part of the cast *but he is and was the reason I adored S2!* Him and the Nowhere's backstory
One of the most unexpectedly great bits of season 2: Durpleton and Stabby's relationship. Yeah, if you read too far into it it gets a bit weird, with the Stockholm syndrome and age regression and such, but just on the surface, it's kinda adorable. I dunno, maybe it's because I'm a dad who doesn't always find it easy but keeps trying that these father-and-son storylines always get to me :P
I mean, Stabby wasn’t ALWAYS a Minotaur. Maybe his human half was 43 when he was fused with the snake, but he was basically reborn when it happened and thrown straight into a war. Stabby never got a chance to know his new form. Centaurworld gave him the second chance he needed.
Idek, he looked comfy just being carried around by Durpleton since the beginning of the series lol. I kinda think he lowkey didn't want to return to the Nowhere King's army or the war based on what we've seen in the season (yes, he did cheer for N.K. but it could've been a subconscious thing imo lolol) ^^"
@@ztslovebird He wasn’t 43 when he was turned that’s just his current age judging by the timeline when the nowhere king was making minotaurs and when he trapped in the void, he was only a toddler when the transformation happened.
it seemed a to less stockholme when tabby had the chance to keep running away in the tunnels but instead CHOSE to come back to Durpleton and it seems to be that Durpleton actually treats Stabby as something of value rather than just a pawn to die and or kill for his personal hatred like the Nowhere king.
My headcanon is that Philip is living the childhood he was never able to live hence his transformation into his true form as a toddler looking being. This is mostly to rationalize that they basically stockholmed someone
I love the fact that it's literally shown that in little ways Stabby accepted Durpleton as his father before Stabby turned into a little baby man boy child. When Durpleton was saying that Stabby was uncomfortable, you can see Stabby nodding his head in agreement. Stabby literally refers to Durpleton as his legal guardian and tries multiple times to express his needs to Durpleton before he turns into a little baby man boy child. There's probably a whole ton more examples but I'm tired and need sleep. Good night everybody Edit: rewatched the video and corrected a mistake real quick so nobody jumps me over it.
I think the best part about the scene at 8:32 is how Stabby's eyes perfectly express how purely confused he is and how much trouble he's having trying to comprehend what he's hearing. It's like me in most situations!
I just realized that all of my favorite characters like Stabby, Wrong Hordak, and Stuck Chuck are very similar to each other as they were all henchmen who were kidnapped and later redeemed themselves.
Okay okay but durpleton is actually a really good dad who listens to stabby and doesn't force him into things stabby doesn't like or what that's a good dad
Stabby's development: "MY NAME IS PHILLIP J. BONECRUNCH!" "I'm 43 years old!" Goes to his room. "I can speak in FULL SENTENCES!" "YOU ARE MY LEGAL GUARDIAN! I'm telling you something is WRONG!" "hhhh..... C'mon get with it." "Frankly I've lost interest" "HHH Youre! The Best! dad hH- An- adult lizard, mistaken for a child- hHHHHHAAAAAA- could possibly want!" "Also friendly fire was a thing!
War sucks and everyone who has complex pstd would love a “parent” to protect them and talk. They want love that they didn’t have. Aww the herd grows and be weridos together.
They say make believe parents and yeah some could be abuse or over protecting. Sad how war and trama effects all sides. Also killing so much really does a number. Sometimes wtf situations have wtf answers.
Zeldagirl86 that's actually so deep and powerful, i feel like you just opened my eyes to a lot of things i wasn't able to see. Sometimes wtf situations have wtf solutions.
Something I noticed about Derpelton’s magic neck. He can make it as long as he wants, but he seems unable (or possibly unwilling) to make it shorter. When he look’s down at stabby he 360’s it into a normal head position.
I actually really like that this show said fuck it and turned stabby into a baby and made him want to be derpleton’s son, as out of no where and a bit questionable when you look to much into it as it was their father/son dynamic was really adorable and a nice development for derpleton’s Character. I prefer this route much more then it being a running gag of him pretending the lizard Minotaur was his son and stabby reluctantly putting up with it cuz that would get annoying real quick
The age regression and Stockholm syndrome is messed up as heck, but Durpleton really is trying to be a good loving dad to Stabby because his own dad (and mom) absolutely SUCKED.
Honestly, I wish we got more of Bonecrusher as a straight man. Being able to comprehend the weirdness of centaurworld while not adhering to it. At least Stabby still got some good moments after the transformation.
Durpleton doesn't show it often, but he IS the strongest in all the herd (noticed how he simply tossed aside the minotaurs that were holding him down as if they were ragdolls?). My hypothesis is that he doesn't even realize how strong he actually is.
"I have unconciuble corpses on my conscious. CUP CUP DADA?" While I did mess up the spelling on that other word. I have to admit, this one scene, made me fall in love with Derpulton and Stabby, when in first season, I didn't like the dude.
9:54 If I had a nickel for every animated show I watched with Wendie Malick voicing a terrible animal mom, I'd have two nickels. Which isn't a lot but it's weird it has happened twice.
Yeah... It's not Exactly the same as Meteora Butterfly, but it does seam like he gets to "start over". Yay for Phillip J. "Stabby" Stabbleton Bonecrunch.
@@Leon-cq2uj In my opinion, I don't think Derpelton would be able to convince a Dalek from "Doctor Who" to change it's evil ways....................... and do you want to know why?
I find it interesting it was only after Stabby admitted Durpletone was his guardian that he changed Much like how Horse changes every time the comes to discover/accept part of herself in season 1, the first change after she uses her smarts to escape the bear-tour and then when she admits who she is during the tea time competition it implies that when you come to accept part of yourself that the magic can change you to fit who you are inside or need to be.
if the style change is to represent character growth, then probably in-universe, it changes you to what your perception of yourself is. So Elktaur who wanted to be human looked more human than the cartoonish centaurs, and as Horse grew to accept the magic of centaurworld (as well as herself), she turned all wibbly wobbly. For the Mysterious woman: maybe her hair changed because she went so long without cutting it lol--but equally because she didn't really change much as a character. She herself had always spent time in centaur world. Chances are she never saw herself as anything other than a human person, whereas Rider maybe grew to embrace the centaurworld style the same her Horse did. Essentially: Stabby turned into a smol lizard boy because that was his acceptance of his role with Durpleton as father and son(?) kinda sus ngl but they're happy so, alright
I have a theory that it is due to the magic of the Key that was used to create them. If you watch the Show carefully, you will notice that there are characters that change when they are in Centaurworld (Horse, Rider, the Minotaurs, etc) and then others that doesn't (The Mystery Woman, Gary the Skeleton Chef), so it's not a matter of the magic of the world Why do I say it's because of the Key's magic then? If we go to the final episode, we see Elktaur mentioning the "Radiation" that thing generates and that thing literally has the ability to Change, Split or Unite beings when you used it with a certain mastery And looking back, all of the first mentioned group were directly affected by said magic. Horse and Rider when they experienced the shock wave that sent the first to Centaurworld and the Minotaurs by their own creation process So in summary, the ones that change while they are in Centaurworld are a product of the magical radiation of the Key, and said changes occur due to the moods of the people (Horse and Stabby becoming Cute when they Happy and the Nowhereking deteriorating into the monstrosity that it is for his loneness and saddness) I hope my theory has helped your
I think some people are taking this show waaaay to seriously. It’s more enjoyable if you don’t? Don’t hurt yourself trying to understand the psychology behind a man-baby reptile and his derpy giraffe father. Lol
I disagree with this sentiment since you're basically saying this isn't a show worth serious consideration towards its themes and writing, and I give the writers far more credit than to treat them with such belittling contempt to assume that they never thought about these things themselves when writing the show. Children's animation deserves the same respect as other media. They aren't even just writing this for children. There 's a lot of clever little jokes thrown in that only an older audience would get. It just feels like people with your mindset undermine the value of fiction overall.
@@sardonicus1739 I don’t think they’re saying that the show doesn’t deserve deep thought, I think they’re saying like “don’t stress yourself out trying to overthink things and seeing the bad in it, just appreciate the good”
@@xanthemothcat But no one ever suggested they were trying to see the bad by simply in their own words, "trying to understand the psychology of something." That makes it sound like trying to analyze something is synonymous with looking for the negatives by that logic when that simply isn't true, nor is it true that a show is more enjoyable if you don't analyze it. Analyzing the show is what makes me enjoy and appreciate it any more. Also are we never suppose to notice or acknowledge when something in a show is bad? Why only focus on the good? That just seems like a shallow way to watch media where you ignore anything bad as though it didn't happen, when that's just as much a part of the experience as anything else. In fact when I see something in a show that I really didn't like it actually helps in a way make the good shine even better . I don't think bad things should be ignored. I don't think it makes a show less enjoyable, it just means you're openly acknowledging reality, and not ignoring your own feelings when you don't like something. Ignoring bad things just sounds like a form of toxic positivity.
I find it curious that it was paralyzed after it got stabbed in the back, probably damaging his column. Had it been a little higher, his lungs or heart would have stopped receiving signals from the brain. He only recovered when he was about to become centaurworld-like, who seemed to be ruled by toon logic, thus his injury didn't matter that much.
The way I see it, Stabby didn't have a childhood and so he began to age regress once Durpleton took on the guardian role of him. Thus putting him into the mindset that it is what it is and it's time I roll with it. This is some real sfw ddlb stuff
Its so nice to see more and more clips of Centaurworld on UA-cam. Thats when you know the show is getting popular. I remember the days when i was begging my friends so watch this wonderful show
If Durpleton is 47, how old is everyone else? From his backstory, he seemed to be the youngest, maybe being 11 at the oldest. And when Wammawink came to save him, she seemed to be an adult, along with Zulius. Does that mean Zulius and Wammawink are pushing 60?
Time works differently in Centaurworld, I believe their years may be shorter since Ched said Horse has been in Centaurworld for a year but it doesn't make sense on Rider's end in the the Humanworld
According to the author of the cartoon, the members of the herd are all quite old - the age order, from oldest to youngest, is Zulius (although he'll never admit it), Wammawink, Glendale, Ched, Durpleton and, of course, Horse. Mind you, the Shamans, the Nowhere King and the Mystery Woman are even older (Nowhere King being the oldest, then Mystery Woman, and finally the Shamans - with the possible exception of the Twin Trees, who as magical trees are INCREDIBLY old)
12:14 Yeah I honestly don't know what to make of this, how do you make a cutified version of a lizardman just as if not more badass than his previous form?
Forcefully adopting a half-dead monster and crarrying it around in an inescapable baby-swaddle is some D&D party shenanigans
Got all the bells and whistles too, Stockholm syndrome, neglected wound care, influenced age regression both mental and physical, good thing durpleton just wants to focus on his own healing through being a good dad and rolemodel and is just too naive to see where he was stepping to get there, in the end of the day stabby was another victim and byproduct of a war he had no power to end, and knowing why the war started and the reason it all came to be was because some self hating idiot decided to mutilate himself to try and get some, only to turn into two more self hating idiots and still getting none, i too, would prefer to trow all that in the trash and enjoy the free childhood and newfound family, more power to both of them, two problems that solve eachother.

Oh absolutely take it in a second. Look at my dog every day with pure envy

Hes my favorite chaeacter in the 2nd season and this is exactly what I hoped would happen after he was shown to survive at the end of the last episode of the 1st season.
I never expected this. I never hoped for this.
But stabby is what I never knew I needed. He is amazing.
I was so scared when the trailer only showed him a once or twice I thought Stabby wouldn't be part of the cast *but he is and was the reason I adored S2!* Him and the Nowhere's backstory
I never saw it coming AT ALL
One of the most unexpectedly great bits of season 2: Durpleton and Stabby's relationship. Yeah, if you read too far into it it gets a bit weird, with the Stockholm syndrome and age regression and such, but just on the surface, it's kinda adorable. I dunno, maybe it's because I'm a dad who doesn't always find it easy but keeps trying that these father-and-son storylines always get to me :P
I mean, Stabby wasn’t ALWAYS a Minotaur. Maybe his human half was 43 when he was fused with the snake, but he was basically reborn when it happened and thrown straight into a war. Stabby never got a chance to know his new form. Centaurworld gave him the second chance he needed.
@@ztslovebird Snake?……I’m pretty sure he’s established to be a lizard. Or even a monitor lizard…
Idek, he looked comfy just being carried around by Durpleton since the beginning of the series lol. I kinda think he lowkey didn't want to return to the Nowhere King's army or the war based on what we've seen in the season (yes, he did cheer for N.K. but it could've been a subconscious thing imo lolol) ^^"
@@ztslovebird He wasn’t 43 when he was turned that’s just his current age judging by the timeline when the nowhere king was making minotaurs and when he trapped in the void, he was only a toddler when the transformation happened.
it seemed a to less stockholme when tabby had the chance to keep running away in the tunnels but instead CHOSE to come back to Durpleton
and it seems to be that Durpleton actually treats Stabby as something of value rather than just a pawn to die and or kill for his personal hatred like the Nowhere king.
And this is the man who voiced Perry the Platypus, Waddles from Gravity Falls, and pretty much any non-human character in a cartoon you can think of

My headcanon is that Philip is living the childhood he was never able to live hence his transformation into his true form as a toddler looking being. This is mostly to rationalize that they basically stockholmed someone
Also wouldnt that mean that he was really really REALLY… *young when they…. Turned him into a snake man…. Oh no*
The fact the knife got centaurworldified implies it is part of stabby
I love the fact that it's literally shown that in little ways Stabby accepted Durpleton as his father before Stabby turned into a little baby man boy child. When Durpleton was saying that Stabby was uncomfortable, you can see Stabby nodding his head in agreement. Stabby literally refers to Durpleton as his legal guardian and tries multiple times to express his needs to Durpleton before he turns into a little baby man boy child. There's probably a whole ton more examples but I'm tired and need sleep. Good night everybody
Edit: rewatched the video and corrected a mistake real quick so nobody jumps me over it.
he even was following the rules placed on him by his dadleton like not praising the no where king. he has that bedroom in glendales portal tummy (':
"He's not my pet! He's my son!"
This gets me every time!
I think the best part about the scene at 8:32 is how Stabby's eyes perfectly express how purely confused he is and how much trouble he's having trying to comprehend what he's hearing.
It's like me in most situations!
I just realized that all of my favorite characters like Stabby, Wrong Hordak, and Stuck Chuck are very similar to each other as they were all henchmen who were kidnapped and later redeemed themselves.
also silly little goobers
Stuck Chuck mentioned 😮❤
I love how Stabby makes a rattle noise whenever someone moves him around
It’s the infection rattling around inside him
Personal canon: Durpleton adopts all the minotaurs and makes them his soneltons

War sucks and everyone who has complex pstd would love a “parent” to protect them and talk. They want love that they didn’t have. Aww the herd grows and be weridos together.
They say make believe parents and yeah some could be abuse or over protecting. Sad how war and trama effects all sides. Also killing so much really does a number. Sometimes wtf situations have wtf answers.

@@lucasmcinnis5045 my only guess is that the Nowhere king got one when he got bigger
Something I noticed about Derpelton’s magic neck. He can make it as long as he wants, but he seems unable (or possibly unwilling) to make it shorter. When he look’s down at stabby he 360’s it into a normal head position.
I actually really like that this show said fuck it and turned stabby into a baby and made him want to be derpleton’s son, as out of no where and a bit questionable when you look to much into it as it was their father/son dynamic was really adorable and a nice development for derpleton’s Character. I prefer this route much more then it being a running gag of him pretending the lizard Minotaur was his son and stabby reluctantly putting up with it cuz that would get annoying real quick
The age regression and Stockholm syndrome is messed up as heck, but Durpleton really is trying to be a good loving dad to Stabby because his own dad (and mom) absolutely SUCKED.

Sort of like how when Horse accepted who she was in the tea time competition she changed as well

Okay but can we talk about how hard Durpleton kicked that minotaur before yelling " GO AWAY THIS IS DADDLE SONLE TIME" ?
Durpleton doesn't show it often, but he IS the strongest in all the herd (noticed how he simply tossed aside the minotaurs that were holding him down as if they were ragdolls?).
My hypothesis is that he doesn't even realize how strong he actually is.
"I have unconciuble corpses on my conscious. CUP CUP DADA?"
While I did mess up the spelling on that other word. I have to admit, this one scene, made me fall in love with Derpulton and Stabby, when in first season, I didn't like the dude.

Adult with a baby body, i guess hes just accepting being babied as a way to cope with his war scarring.

@@jamieolberding7731 hey, I wanna know why 👀
I find it interesting it was only after Stabby admitted Durpletone was his guardian that he changed
Much like how Horse changes every time the comes to discover/accept part of herself in season 1, the first change after she uses her smarts to escape the bear-tour and then when she admits who she is during the tea time competition
it implies that when you come to accept part of yourself that the magic can change you to fit who you are inside or need to be.
It’s sad how he uses stabby as a coping mechanism for how his dad never paid attention to him
"ALL HAIL THE NOWHERE KING!!!" (gasps)
The disipointed face durpleton gives kills me every time
Stabby covering his mouth is so funny too. Even when he was a realistic minotaur he acted child like
if the style change is to represent character growth, then probably in-universe, it changes you to what your perception of yourself is. So Elktaur who wanted to be human looked more human than the cartoonish centaurs, and as Horse grew to accept the magic of centaurworld (as well as herself), she turned all wibbly wobbly. For the Mysterious woman: maybe her hair changed because she went so long without cutting it lol--but equally because she didn't really change much as a character. She herself had always spent time in centaur world. Chances are she never saw herself as anything other than a human person, whereas Rider maybe grew to embrace the centaurworld style the same her Horse did.
Essentially: Stabby turned into a smol lizard boy because that was his acceptance of his role with Durpleton as father and son(?)
kinda sus ngl but they're happy so, alright
I have a theory that it is due to the magic of the Key that was used to create them. If you watch the Show carefully, you will notice that there are characters that change when they are in Centaurworld (Horse, Rider, the Minotaurs, etc) and then others that doesn't (The Mystery Woman, Gary the Skeleton Chef), so it's not a matter of the magic of the world
Why do I say it's because of the Key's magic then? If we go to the final episode, we see Elktaur mentioning the "Radiation" that thing generates and that thing literally has the ability to Change, Split or Unite beings when you used it with a certain mastery
And looking back, all of the first mentioned group were directly affected by said magic. Horse and Rider when they experienced the shock wave that sent the first to Centaurworld and the Minotaurs by their own creation process
So in summary, the ones that change while they are in Centaurworld are a product of the magical radiation of the Key, and said changes occur due to the moods of the people (Horse and Stabby becoming Cute when they Happy and the Nowhereking deteriorating into the monstrosity that it is for his loneness and saddness)
I hope my theory has helped your
I dont know why but Stabby seemed cuter as an adult.
Durpleton being a absolute unit with a marshmallow heart is still funny to me.
FR, he probably killed that one Minotaur when he kicked it. Giraffes can one shot a full on lion with a kick.
I think some people are taking this show waaaay to seriously. It’s more enjoyable if you don’t? Don’t hurt yourself trying to understand the psychology behind a man-baby reptile and his derpy giraffe father. Lol
True
I disagree with this sentiment since you're basically saying this isn't a show worth serious consideration towards its themes and writing, and I give the writers far more credit than to treat them with such belittling contempt to assume that they never thought about these things themselves when writing the show.
Children's animation deserves the same respect as other media. They aren't even just writing this for children. There 's a lot of clever little jokes thrown in that only an older audience would get. It just feels like people with your mindset undermine the value of fiction overall.
@@sardonicus1739 I don’t think they’re saying that the show doesn’t deserve deep thought, I think they’re saying like “don’t stress yourself out trying to overthink things and seeing the bad in it, just appreciate the good”
@@xanthemothcat But no one ever suggested they were trying to see the bad by simply in their own words, "trying to understand the psychology of something." That makes it sound like trying to analyze something is synonymous with looking for the negatives by that logic when that simply isn't true, nor is it true that a show is more enjoyable if you don't analyze it. Analyzing the show is what makes me enjoy and appreciate it any more.
Also are we never suppose to notice or acknowledge when something in a show is bad? Why only focus on the good? That just seems like a shallow way to watch media where you ignore anything bad as though it didn't happen, when that's just as much a part of the experience as anything else. In fact when I see something in a show that I really didn't like it actually helps in a way make the good shine even better . I don't think bad things should be ignored. I don't think it makes a show less enjoyable, it just means you're openly acknowledging reality, and not ignoring your own feelings when you don't like something. Ignoring bad things just sounds like a form of toxic positivity.
I find it curious that it was paralyzed after it got stabbed in the back, probably damaging his column. Had it been a little higher, his lungs or heart would have stopped receiving signals from the brain. He only recovered when he was about to become centaurworld-like, who seemed to be ruled by toon logic, thus his injury didn't matter that much.
"Leave my Daddleton alone! Unless you want to be...deadleton.."
The way I see it, Stabby didn't have a childhood and so he began to age regress once Durpleton took on the guardian role of him. Thus putting him into the mindset that it is what it is and it's time I roll with it. This is some real sfw ddlb stuff
I love how Stabby Accepted him as a father a long time ago but when MAGIC happend he became a Literal baby.
Its so nice to see more and more clips of Centaurworld on UA-cam. Thats when you know the show is getting popular. I remember the days when i was begging my friends so watch this wonderful show
10:48 that tiny squeak when he pointed was so cute
This is the most confusing, disturbing yet wholesome relationship I’ve witnessed in a cartoon
If Durpleton is 47, how old is everyone else? From his backstory, he seemed to be the youngest, maybe being 11 at the oldest. And when Wammawink came to save him, she seemed to be an adult, along with Zulius. Does that mean Zulius and Wammawink are pushing 60?
Time works differently in Centaurworld, I believe their years may be shorter since Ched said Horse has been in Centaurworld for a year but it doesn't make sense on Rider's end in the the Humanworld
According to the author of the cartoon, the members of the herd are all quite old - the age order, from oldest to youngest, is Zulius (although he'll never admit it), Wammawink, Glendale, Ched, Durpleton and, of course, Horse. Mind you, the Shamans, the Nowhere King and the Mystery Woman are even older (Nowhere King being the oldest, then Mystery Woman, and finally the Shamans - with the possible exception of the Twin Trees, who as magical trees are INCREDIBLY old)
@Blah Blah Who knows? Possibly.
