PLEASE READ BEFORE COMMENTING: Ok so at 13:19I did a bit of a dumb here. Basically I was saying how Riley becoming a meat wouldn't make sense because we don't see any meats with no eyes for her to inhabit, however the meat that she is is in the back wall, which wouldn't be visible to the camera in the show. What I SHOULD have said is that in Amanda 1, we only see meats on the left side, despite the fact that in the Meatman ending we can clearly see the wall is full of them. So what I say here still works! I just used the wrong thing as proof. Last time I made a comment in post like this (BanBan video), I still got a horde of comments about the minor mistake anyways AFTER having explaining in a pinned comment (and also the point in question not changing that much about the theory??), despite the fact you can see right next to the comment button BEFORE posting, so hopefully with the "PLEASE READ" people will see this before they comment? Comments are good for the algorithm, though, so it's not a massive dealbreaker if they comment about the mistake without reading, just annoys me when I don't get "real" counterarguments/discussion! I like seeing your guys' thoughts and additions!!! Especially with the cat video recently!! It's epic!!!! And poggers!!!!! And is sucks when it's just repeating something I've already touched on, instead of adding something new! Sorry for the long post, TLDR; In the Meatman ending we're on the backwall and thus can't be seen, but technically my points still right because there's MORE meats on the wall during the meatman ending than in Amanda 1's butcher shop walls from BEFORE that ending despite the fact they should be visible.
Here's my Theory about the Possum: It was never meant to be in the Cartoon in the first place, it was never a character scripted to appear but someone who managed to slip into these tapes and became the Possum, the reason why i think that is because Amanda's and Wooly's initial reaction to them is just questioning. Amanda in Goodnight tape: "How did you get in here? *Who even are you?* Go away! " Wooly in Let's Play Bandits tape: "Seriously who is that guy?" For a comparison with Dora the Explorer, Dora and Boots atleast know Swiper's name, meanwhile Amanda and Wooly doesn't.
(Spoiler Warning)I feel like the Possum is Joanne's little bother,Jordan.My theory is that when Joanne said little,she meant like baby still trying to talk,which is why the Possum is messing with everything,Jordan's immature,I mean babies do like to touch everything.Maybe Joanne was trying to teach Jordan to say her name but never finished teaching,which is why the Possum was screaming "Jo-Joh-Jo" in the final tape.Also Jordan could've been the first person who Hameln was trying to force into the tapes as the MC,but was scraped due to his imature nature/being a baby.What hurts even more is Amanda and Wooly killed the Possum in the final tape...who's gonna tell Joanne?
To be honest to me the possum could have 3 identitys- 1 (most likely) jordan 2. Joanne taking account of this theory 3. Kate herself. (I actually really like this theory ngl) Edit- THE AMANDA TIME THEORY IS SUPER SUPER SMART. LIKE OMG I NEVER CONSIDERED THAT. if that theorys true this changes alot of things
Kate being the possum makes sense too, like Joanne she’d have the same motivations that were purposed in the video, she’d recognize Katie’s current voice, and she’s already dead. (Also I don’t think I understood the Amanda time theory fully)
@ Like I understand the people showing up in the tapes that come after the one they’re first trapped in and the each tape has chronological order, but I don’t get how someone can show up in the tapes before they die/ get their soul trapped
I think its either jordan or Kate but its most likely jordan because of how the possum acts they act like a young child would to annoy their older sibling
The tape theory is a good theory, but I think the tapes are in order because the tape titled let’s start the day Amanda ask you what’s your favorite thing for breakfast if you put pie then Amanda says “aw is that because we made one together before” and in good night, when Amanda asked you, what are you afraid of? If you put trap, she says. “ I know a silly mr. Fox that’s afraid of that too.”
maybe it's because some tapes go before and some go after, so maybe the pie episode was after wooly's death instead of before like we watched? either way, i like all interpretations of the game, and you make a good point
In the true ending, a new creature based on Wooly shows up, and according to the games captions, growling, *snapping and tearing* sounds can be heard from the other side of the door. It is all but certain that this is the Wooly demon killing Joanne. If Joanne is dead, then there would be no reason to place her in the tapes, where she might be able to disrupt things. Also, placing Joanne, a fully grown adult, in the show wouldn't match its usual M.O. of only targeting children. And what reason would the Amanda demon have to not just leave Joanne for dead in the normal ending instead of placing her in the same tapes that she's actively *trying to destroy*? Aman-demon is only prevented from killing us by Amanda, and that only happens once you tell her the right story to feel better. She didn't like Joanne before... she would let it kill her off EASILY, especially once she realizes that Joanne has broken a tape. In addition, the Possum's actions don't quite add up if it's meant to be Joanne. Like, why does it only react to Joanne's voice? Obviously, Riley doesn't have voice lines, but looking at the show Amanda the Adventurer is based off of (Dora the Explorer), it would seem to imply that Riley is physically saying their answers. I mean, the TV setups ingame aren't exactly coming with keyboards attached. But if the Possum is meant to be Joanne from AFTER either of the endings, they SHOULD recognize Riley's voice as well. Finally, if Jordan ISN'T the possum, that raises the question of where and what is he? We know he is one of the missing children, so he was sucked into the tapes. We also know that he couldn't be Amanda or Wooly, since those characters were around since the start. But with no prominent characters left, that would mean that he doesn't actually make an appearance in this game, which seems like a waste of character development for someone we have barely even been acquainted with. Honestly you do have some good points, especially with Amanda potentially remembering when you die, and trying to find an order to the tapes. I just don't know if I agree with the conclusion of Joanne being the Possum. Overall you do seem to be a pretty good theorist tho so keep theorizing :)
As someone with no proof or reasoning٫ I feel like Jordan is the dead fox٫ Since he and Joanne are related. And since Amanda KNOWS how much of a living hell the tapes are٫ she might see it as a fair punishment for Joanne . (i am amazed by the dedication and care for the plot in your essay)
I didn't even think about Jordan not able to recognize Joanne because of time, thank you for that insight. And for how we don't have a true timeline for these tapes.
Nice theory, but the wooly section doesn't make sense. Wooly being gone wasn't only in the demos, it was in the actual game too. He was gone for the first two tapes, Amanda is just as secretive about it as she was in the demo, and when he comes back Amanda shows a genuine shock and anger at his presence. You claim this as evidence of Amanda Time and say the tapes of ATA2 take place before the tapes of ATA1, so Amanda hasn't killed Wooly yet. But that doesn't make sense. Amanda is gleeful about Wooly's absence at the start of ATA2 **because** she had already killed him in ATA1. She was so enraged by his return cause she thought she had already gotten rid of him and was upset that he somehow came back. Yes, the teasers suggested that Wooly would be gone longer than he actually was, but to suggest that we were shown this sequence at of order and Amanda killing him in the doctor's office comes after Wooly's return doesn't make sense. The timeline for this part seems pretty linear. The theory would be stronger is you removed this part since it works against the idea that Joanne is the possum: If Joanna got sucked into the We Can Fix It tape, and the tapes of ATA2 are sequentially before the tapes of ATA1, why does the possum not appear in any of the ATA1 tapes? And how does Amanda remember our name in ATA2 when we technically didn't tell her yet (in the nightlight tape, if we get the nightlight to her in time, Amanda says "goodnight, Riley."
19:57 YES!!! Since Amanda 2, and the reveal that those kidnapped can get turned into the animals, AND SOME OF THEM CAN HA A SENSE OF AWARENESS I've been thinking a lot about the Kitty and especially Mister Fox! Assuming that Amanda knows in some way the fact that the Fox was a Mister, and was killed by a bear trap, could it be someone from the company? We have seen recordings of someone working on the inside, could they have been got? Trapped? Killed?do did Joanne die or just get sent in the tapes? If you die in the tapes, do you die in real life? But most importantly: if your body stop functioning outside, dose the soul trap keep going? Or still have a connection with the body and die? - Amanda can feel her Body even when she is stuck in the tapes - the company keeps the children attached to machines to keep them "alive", since we have seen there are other rooms of hospitals beds. Dang, I'm late to the video and all of these points could have already been thought out and debunked, but it was nice getting it out! in the end, the question stays: _what about Mister Fox?_
Perhaps there is a possibility that the cat and her kittens that killed that bird are also some of the missing kids. The bird is also one of the missing kids. So, missing kid unalived another kid, but because they are cartoon characters, they always come back.
Wait… what if Joanne in the real world outside of the tapes is a demon version of Joanne instead of being future Joanne? Dem-Anne?! Like, if cartoon Amanda and Aman-demon can exist *together* , maybe the possum and Dem-Anne could too!
I love how Amanda straight up kills wooly but he can't stay dead due to him being in a cartoon so he just slides back on screen and it pisses Amanda off
It's right before 14:59 but here's where I paused with the thought sorry if you go over it in the video lol but for your argument as to why Joanne didn't warn us earlier could have to do with what you've already said about the show timeline aspect, Joanne may think we're watching the tapes after she's gone, "continuing our duty" and it's not until the tape that Joanne talks while the tape is still playing for her to hear herself and realize her fate hasn't happened yet, just wanted to get this down bc gotta check but Joanne may have scenes where she talks with the possum present will update if I find out before anyone else
Good theory but I can definitely see some problems with this 1. If we did get meated in Amanda 1, then we wouldntbeb in Amanda 2 due to us being stuck in the tape. 2. If the possum is really future Joanne, wouldn't that cause a paradox?
I think the possum is Jordan, Joann's kidnapped brother, because it was attracted to her in the last tape when it heard her voice, and it has the same eyes as all of the moving objects in the game, meaning it is also a kidnapped kid.
I really like this theory, I never considered it and I think it's clever [also yeah i agree, this game had too many extra questions for us. Really sad...]
Yeah… the time theory doesn’t make sense Amanda is mad at Wooly because she kills him in the first game, it doesn’t make sense to Wooly to disappear and then appear and Amanda getting mad at him for then kill him again, because why would Wooly disappear in the first place if it wasn’t for Amanda? Besides, is makes not sense for her to be in the show because she needs to have that egg-like machine AND she also needs a surgery that HAMELN has. How she would be able to have a future self is she is in a hospital bed rotting? Even worse, is she was kidnapped by Amanda how is she able to have a future self if all the children that disappeared don’t let any trace? And why the Devs would put a super complex time paradox in this game it makes no sense 😭
Yo the silly Mr fox connection I would never have though of but now I can't unthink it I don't think that counts as a word but good theory, good for the lore book
Heres a theory: i think shes not the possum or the possum which the tapes of the possum one say "JO-JO-J-O!" Yeah so i understand this is crazy cause if the possum said that.. the possum might be joannes child that was kidnapped and became it.. like amanda or the other girl! But you guys can figure it out litttle goobers! But the possums maybe the son of joanne or joannes pet cause the thing is that it faked being dead joanne actually is maybe the possum or not cause its like the aman-demon cause the aman-demon kills us if we do it wrong... LIKE! If we fail to stop the possum ruining it.. then amanda gets mad.. but the aman-demon dosent appear from that its only at the plush and the story section my last theory is that the possum is a friend of wooly cause he saved him... but the end of my theory CAUSE i think im pretty good at this...
Honestly I think that Amanda remembering when you die kind of makes sense in a weird way due to how the endings work in this series especially in Amanda 1 where you die and then come back and then you take the information that you learned from the previous ending in this new one. It's a strange thing to be honest.
I want Wooly to be another kid like Amanda, just one that was stuck shorter than Amanda... cause he has his Wooly-monster thing too, like Amanda, But Amanda might have been there longer than Wooly which causes her to get slowly more and more annoyed of Wooly. then sense Wooly is a main character, or at least a important side character, he comes back
I can't agree with your order theory because because one my weak evidence is when wooly comes back she flips out and two wouldn't the wooly demon die two?
pre vid watch comment here: I feel like this would make some sense, as while watching a play through of the game, my brain kinda linked the two together, the possum messing things up as symbolism as Joanne looking into things she really shouldn't. post vid watch comment: yeah i agree with bout alla this! considering that this might just be a set timeline were viewing in chunks and out of order, this does explain how wolly is here despite how he should be dead as hell. theres a few small things my brain doesnt exactly agree with, but those dont change up the theory that much so.... great video btw :D
The possum is Joanne’s little brother or a least we think because she tells us about it, the possum must be another soul, and the reason why the possum acts like how Joanne is talking is because the possum thinks Riley is Joanne.
5:01 that doesn't make sense because she blames the viewer for not stopping the opossum even it is the cause. And the opossum knows this happens multiple times and still keeps causing trouble. In fact, it knows that it's working against you because whenever you stop it, it gives you a really guilty look each time before scrambling away.
I think that when someone is absorbed they just can appear in episodes made after they got absorbed, not that we can see people from the future in the tapes (there's more meat in the meat man ending because more people got trapped) But this theory can work if creators are setting up something like she was in the tapes but she was causing so much trouble that hamlen let her out and erased her memory (or she is hiding it from us) that's why she reacts to her own voice and we can see her because these are tapes made before she was freed and yes i read the coment
i dont think joanne is the possum but instead jordan is the possum, think about it! Joanne talked about her brother being one of the missing children, and the opossum trys to get out of the TV and says Jo because HE HEARS HIS SISTER VOICE IN THE WALKIE TALKIE PLAY DURING THE TAPE "Do You Feel Safe?"
Joanne little brother is the possem since the possem in one of the tapes he says "jo-jo-joa" and at the end of the line he says "jo-jo-joahh its my theory
I think the possum is Joan’s brother, in the last tape the possum lunges at the screen to try and escape because they and hear Joan’s voice, as for the reason they are here, I believe that Joan almost summoned him to the tapes. Think about it, in the second game what changes? The location, because of Joan, why are we doing these things? Because of Joan, everything that changes is because of Joan, so why wouldn’t the possum be there because of Joan, because they herd Joan’s voice in other parts, the breaking things could be it trying to find how to get out, in the getting ready tape they pop in, that is the moment when there summoned. This is just how I see it but I think it’s pretty cool. Of corse all theorys are correct until proven wrong, so share your thoughts!
14:48 I haven't seen this game in like 2 months but did Joanne even know what Riley looked like? It's not like Riley talks at all so if Riley don't talk and Joanne couldn't recognize them then Yeah I don't think Possum would say nun to them-
Are you ready to do the video?Where you calculate whether or not huggy survived the fall because you could easily have a video on that concern, how you figured out his anatomy. It'd be like a part 2 where you figure out if he's alive with stuff like the box, the stuff he hit and the water treatment area and to figure out where else he could have possibly went, like with chapter 3 or something. And predict whether or not he will be in the fourth chapter. Because I when insane back. When chapter 3 came out and there was nothing of huggy and the fall, the only thing I saw was a weird hole in the wall on like a catwalk, a thing near the beginning of the game, but that wasn't really evidence. But hopefully you could do that again after the wait
I'm not convinced he's actually dead. Until I see proof, like his body (without the "body gets up for a jumpscare" thing) or if we see him as part of the Prototype.
Yeah, but if he did the science and if he proves that he would be dead, then that just means mob, entertainment is greedy, that is, if he proved that that was the case, the point is that it would be interesting
i have a theory at first hamlen tried using the tapes as phalacterys a magical item that keeps the souls of people inside them turning the person into a lich like form dnd to i dont khow learn immortality but then they summoned a demon by leaving the body souless so they started plannig to use the demons as weapons so they did their experiments so if joan for example lost a bit of her soul like and that bit was put into a tape it would explain how joan is alice and yet in the tapes bcs a very well khown lich did the same thing VOLDEMORT by basic rules of magical entitys voldemort counts as a lich and yet he put a bit of his soul into the horcruces ergo the phalacterys and yet voldemort is alive with only a fraction of his soul so there is a change the possum isnt a future joanne but a franction of her soul yelling to her to get her soul back and when she dies her whole soul will return to the only thing keeping her alive THE POSSUM btw i heard a theory that the amanda demon migth not be a demon but a quardian angel i mean demons wouldnt want to protect or quard a human BUT ANGELS WOULD plus remember the whole stick with angels make themself look scary to scare the evil away while the demons look pretty to draw people closer to it
I love how half of these comments, some of them insist its jordan and make it clear they didnt watch the video at all☠️ I feel like this theory could be true and maybe they wanted to make thinking Jordan is the possum as a red herring, it would be good storytelling, but i guess we'll have to wait until the 3rd game
Okay, I am going to use a overdone reference but keep in mind this mostly more so to make my theory on how the possum can be Joanne and in the same room as easy to understand as possible and is ANYTHING BUT LITERAL. Y'all heard of the stands from Jojo's Bizarre Adventure? Yes IK IK. My point is more so I think it's not out of the question for Hamlin to want some way to very directly impact the Amanda dimension(s), and thus having some kind of being with in that word they can control from a small distance, like a JJBA stand, would be something very useful. Joanne is an ex-Hamlin employee, so it makes sense that if such a thing exists(which is admitedly a big if) then she would have one.
Ngl it's joannes brother by one key factor when it hears joannes voice it jumpson the screen in Amanda the adventurer 1 joanne is on the paper and theres A little brother that is joanne's and on the neighborhood tape it shouts parts of a name joanne yes i copied this from game theory
I Love the cutcafe timeline theory (timeline theory for short) but theres no... strong evedence for it exsisting? (also it means that time travel is part of the universe sooo :l ) "Well, if theres no evedence against timeline theory!" Yeah thats what I was also thinking BUT if you replay the first tape "Let's Plan a Trip" after the tape that wolly apears first "Let's Practice Patience!" then he will apear in the ending scene, Thus timeline theory is not true :( "Okay well who could the possum be?" Thats a good question Cant be Sam beacuse hes wolly, an employee at hamlen hoping to reconnect to his daughter Cant be Kate, cos she is dea... Kate... IT FITS??? SHE COULDN'T SEE, AND IN "Do You Feel Safe?" WHERE SHE HEARS SOMEONE (Joanne) SAYNONONOnonoNO tihs isn't airtight idk why I was yappin bout this theory it has alot of holes sorry for being wrong huh... well this isn't as airtight as i was thinking... if this theory is true wolly (sam I think) would refer to Kate as a STRANGER soo :( 1:44 (this vid) Kate:Joanne is dead
Aren’t possums Australian? Meaning the correct kind of possum would be the Opossum. As they’re in America, and where I assume the games and tapes take place.
Here I'm going just remind you of this your poetry science lore I think I know why red did not go dancing in front of everyone else it's because of poetry she has something nullifying her own affect on the drug to herself as you see Portuguese not addicted and most the time whenever red is near her he is regularly not being as addicted and same thing with his drug she must be taking that same drug but as a more better effect but friends mild case could be because she's releasing it through like a system or she literally can breathe this stuff out but whenever you're looking at red when he dances more of the characters that have been affected or near him so they must be admitting more of the drug also or more of the effect that caused them to get more addicted but with poetry she doesn't get affected she must be having something to stop the effect and red if he had more time you probably would have made a proper cure stopping the effect entirely like it's like a virus the poochie Labs already knows the cure so she's been taking it but red you want me to cure if they didn't stop him in time
Pre thery possumn has a cloned soul and joan is the og soul. Second thery it joans brother. third thery (add on) he knows what happens. 4th thery time travel
Hey so you know that pochi science thing? well they’ve made more videos and block blast sponsorship videos… so I think it would be interesting to make a part two to your original fairy or don’t it’s fine
Now the possum identity isn't joanne but good video for make it short the possum his joanne little brother which was one of amanda victim this is told in like reports in Amanda the adventurer 1 and the possum calling from the tv was infact joanne little brother reacting to her voice trought the walkie talkie this also explain why she is destroyng the tape for free is brother souls like for the other children but the video is still pretty good i like the theory but there are a some key evidence that debunk it
More convincing then I thought but it does seem that Amanda knows you from previous tapes, which implies a consiousness beyond just within the order of the tapes. Dont get how The time travel thikg works though. Especially as you talk about the possum being in the same place as Joanne is irl, idk I feel i need more to buy that properly Also on stuff with eyes i dont see why the spirits would have to inhabit things alrwadt in the gamr and coupdnt just take a form that would make sense in it.

Jo-Joh-Jo- *JoJo!!!*
There is a 15 year time gap between Jordan being put in the tapes, and ATA2. It would literally be impossible to recognize her voice after 15 years.
To be honest to me the possum could have 3 identitys-
1 (most likely) jordan
2. Joanne taking account of this theory
3. Kate herself. (I actually really like this theory ngl)
Edit- THE AMANDA TIME THEORY IS SUPER SUPER SMART. LIKE OMG I NEVER CONSIDERED THAT. if that theorys true this changes alot of things

And how does Amanda remember our name in ATA2 when we technically didn't tell her yet (in the nightlight tape, if we get the nightlight to her in time, Amanda says "goodnight, Riley."
Joanne have one of the brutal deaths on my opinion.
I do not know the lore but how did she die?
@XArtificerx Brutally disucartised by Monster Wolly (and amanda in the other ending)
@@AlonsoMaturanaanza there’s a monster wooly? I didn’t know that
@@XArtificerx yes
No hate but…
English no work.
I could’ve sworn Jordan (Joanne’s brother that went missing years ago watching Amanda) was the possum….
He is
That's why he tries to call out for Joanne
@@sharkymsmdid you not watch the video
I saw a theory that Jordan was Wooly.
@@BellaTheRatFairyI thought wolly was sam..??
19:57 YES!!! Since Amanda 2, and the reveal that those kidnapped can get turned into the animals, AND SOME OF THEM CAN HA A SENSE OF AWARENESS I've been thinking a lot about the Kitty and especially Mister Fox!
Assuming that Amanda knows in some way the fact that the Fox was a Mister, and was killed by a bear trap, could it be someone from the company? We have seen recordings of someone working on the inside, could they have been got? Trapped? Killed?do did Joanne die or just get sent in the tapes? If you die in the tapes, do you die in real life?
But most importantly: if your body stop functioning outside, dose the soul trap keep going? Or still have a connection with the body and die?
- Amanda can feel her Body even when she is stuck in the tapes
- the company keeps the children attached to machines to keep them "alive", since we have seen there are other rooms of hospitals beds.
Dang, I'm late to the video and all of these points could have already been thought out and debunked, but it was nice getting it out!
in the end, the question stays: _what about Mister Fox?_
Perhaps there is a possibility that the cat and her kittens that killed that bird are also some of the missing kids. The bird is also one of the missing kids. So, missing kid unalived another kid, but because they are cartoon characters, they always come back.
Wait… what if Joanne in the real world outside of the tapes is a demon version of Joanne instead of being future Joanne? Dem-Anne?! Like, if cartoon Amanda and Aman-demon can exist *together* , maybe the possum and Dem-Anne could too!
Ooooooo! That’s a good point!
Well if that was the case her appearance would be more monstrous and possum-like. Like amandemon looking like amanda and demon-wooly being sheep-like
@ Ypu got a point there
I love how Amanda straight up kills wooly but he can't stay dead due to him being in a cartoon so he just slides back on screen and it pisses Amanda off
It's right before 14:59 but here's where I paused with the thought sorry if you go over it in the video lol but for your argument as to why Joanne didn't warn us earlier could have to do with what you've already said about the show timeline aspect, Joanne may think we're watching the tapes after she's gone, "continuing our duty" and it's not until the tape that Joanne talks while the tape is still playing for her to hear herself and realize her fate hasn't happened yet, just wanted to get this down bc gotta check but Joanne may have scenes where she talks with the possum present will update if I find out before anyone else
Good theory but I can definitely see some problems with this
1. If we did get meated in Amanda 1, then we wouldntbeb in Amanda 2 due to us being stuck in the tape.
2. If the possum is really future Joanne, wouldn't that cause a paradox?
1. This is an Alternate ending.
I think the possum is Jordan, Joann's kidnapped brother, because it was attracted to her in the last tape when it heard her voice, and it has the same eyes as all of the moving objects in the game, meaning it is also a kidnapped kid.
Hornet's Boss Theme Right off the bat? This is going to be a good video.
I really like this theory, I never considered it and I think it's clever [also yeah i agree, this game had too many extra questions for us. Really sad...]
I though you were gonna say it was the Brother, but It ain't CutCafe theory without i being mildly insane.
This theory was busted by Tom when he figured out that the possum was Jordan or Joanne's little brother
Yay you posted
Yeah… the time theory doesn’t make sense
Amanda is mad at Wooly because she kills him in the first game, it doesn’t make sense to Wooly to disappear and then appear and Amanda getting mad at him for then kill him again, because why would Wooly disappear in the first place if it wasn’t for Amanda?
Besides, is makes not sense for her to be in the show because she needs to have that egg-like machine AND she also needs a surgery that HAMELN has. How she would be able to have a future self is she is in a hospital bed rotting? Even worse, is she was kidnapped by Amanda how is she able to have a future self if all the children that disappeared don’t let any trace?
And why the Devs would put a super complex time paradox in this game it makes no sense 😭
Yo the silly Mr fox connection I would never have though of but now I can't unthink it I don't think that counts as a word but good theory, good for the lore book
I think people forget that Joanne has a brother and he disappeared when watching the cartoon and the possum sounds like a little boy
Heres a theory: i think shes not the possum or the possum which the tapes of the possum one say "JO-JO-J-O!" Yeah so i understand this is crazy cause if the possum said that.. the possum might be joannes child that was kidnapped and became it.. like amanda or the other girl! But you guys can figure it out litttle goobers! But the possums maybe the son of joanne or joannes pet cause the thing is that it faked being dead joanne actually is maybe the possum or not cause its like the aman-demon cause the aman-demon kills us if we do it wrong... LIKE! If we fail to stop the possum ruining it.. then amanda gets mad.. but the aman-demon dosent appear from that its only at the plush and the story section my last theory is that the possum is a friend of wooly cause he saved him... but the end of my theory CAUSE i think im pretty good at this...
Hey First Comment!
(btw your videos are amazing! :D)
Joanne brother is the possum
Yup.
I'm still believing that Jordan is the opossum of you can't change my mind but anyway good theory
Cool theory though to me i think i still believe the possum being Joanna's brother Jordan.
The fact that Joanne died in BOTH ENDINGS does support this theory as well.
FINALLY SOMEONE WHO AGREES WITH ME When I watched it for the first time I found this quickly something that didnt belong being where it shouldnt
for a sec i didnt know this was abt amanda
Honestly I think that Amanda remembering when you die kind of makes sense in a weird way due to how the endings work in this series especially in Amanda 1 where you die and then come back and then you take the information that you learned from the previous ending in this new one. It's a strange thing to be honest.
I want Wooly to be another kid like Amanda, just one that was stuck shorter than Amanda... cause he has his Wooly-monster thing too, like Amanda, But Amanda might have been there longer than Wooly which causes her to get slowly more and more annoyed of Wooly. then sense Wooly is a main character, or at least a important side character, he comes back
amanda the adventure is summer time rendering
My theory was that the possum was her brother calling his sister
Yeah, same.
i LOVE your vids
I can't agree with your order theory because because one my weak evidence is when wooly comes back she flips out and two wouldn't the wooly demon die two?
I fucking love that possum!!!
I thought the possum was Jordan-
WHY ARE YOU SO GOOD AT DOING THIS
Hooooiii! I have a question! Are you ever going to make a pochi science lore pt? Just curious :3
He has
@The_science_twins I checked, he didn't make a pt 2 yet?
@@DokiDoki-OFFICIALL oh. I thought you meant just a 1st lore vid about Pochi science! Sorry 😐
pre vid watch comment here: I feel like this would make some sense, as while watching a play through of the game, my brain kinda linked the two together, the possum messing things up as symbolism as Joanne looking into things she really shouldn't.
post vid watch comment: yeah i agree with bout alla this! considering that this might just be a set timeline were viewing in chunks and out of order, this does explain how wolly is here despite how he should be dead as hell. theres a few small things my brain doesnt exactly agree with, but those dont change up the theory that much so....
great video btw :D
Make a part two of don’t eat the cake please I just re-watched it😁
You mean Pochi Science????
Yeahhhh!!!!!!!
The possum is Joanne’s little brother or a least we think because she tells us about it, the possum must be another soul, and the reason why the possum acts like how Joanne is talking is because the possum thinks Riley is Joanne.
Yo, do you remember that do not trust the cake episode you made nine months ago. It’s gotten a lot of updates.
5:01 that doesn't make sense because she blames the viewer for not stopping the opossum even it is the cause. And the opossum knows this happens multiple times and still keeps causing trouble. In fact, it knows that it's working against you because whenever you stop it, it gives you a really guilty look each time before scrambling away.
Pretty good theory, I think I might be convinced
Idk even know who Joanne or the possum is still gonna watch this vid tho
Well no those characters in digital circus are just a show where Amanda is alive and knows but she’s going along with Hameln so they don’t punish her
Nonono, you see, the possum is Joannes brother
I very much like this theory!!
The new matpat
I think that when someone is absorbed they just can appear in episodes made after they got absorbed, not that we can see people from the future in the tapes (there's more meat in the meat man ending because more people got trapped)
But this theory can work if creators are setting up something like she was in the tapes but she was causing so much trouble that hamlen let her out and erased her memory (or she is hiding it from us) that's why she reacts to her own voice and we can see her because these are tapes made before she was freed
and yes i read the coment
i dont think joanne is the possum but instead jordan is the possum, think about it! Joanne talked about her brother being one of the missing children, and the opossum trys to get out of the TV and says Jo because HE HEARS HIS SISTER VOICE IN THE WALKIE TALKIE PLAY DURING THE TAPE "Do You Feel Safe?"
Joanne little brother is the possem since the possem in one of the tapes he says "jo-jo-joa" and at the end of the line he says "jo-jo-joahh its my theory
There was actually this theory that the opossum that their actually Joanes' brother.
You should watch joll and conk they have a lot of lore
I do.
The Opossum is so cute fr fr
I think the possum is Joan’s brother, in the last tape the possum lunges at the screen to try and escape because they and hear Joan’s voice, as for the reason they are here, I believe that Joan almost summoned him to the tapes. Think about it, in the second game what changes? The location, because of Joan, why are we doing these things? Because of Joan, everything that changes is because of Joan, so why wouldn’t the possum be there because of Joan, because they herd Joan’s voice in other parts, the breaking things could be it trying to find how to get out, in the getting ready tape they pop in, that is the moment when there summoned. This is just how I see it but I think it’s pretty cool. Of corse all theorys are correct until proven wrong, so share your thoughts!
No the possum is Joanne's brother? Because in an end she says her brother was one of the missing children so Joanne's brother is the possum
You don't understand, the opposum is Joanna's brother
Yeah, I said that too.
Assassins creed 2 theme mentioned 🗣
I think you should be in game theory
14:48
I haven't seen this game in like 2 months but did Joanne even know what Riley looked like? It's not like Riley talks at all so if Riley don't talk and Joanne couldn't recognize them then
Yeah I don't think Possum would say nun to them-
Are you ready to do the video?Where you calculate whether or not huggy survived the fall because you could easily have a video on that concern, how you figured out his anatomy. It'd be like a part 2 where you figure out if he's alive with stuff like the box, the stuff he hit and the water treatment area and to figure out where else he could have possibly went, like with chapter 3 or something. And predict whether or not he will be in the fourth chapter. Because I when insane back. When chapter 3 came out and there was nothing of huggy and the fall, the only thing I saw was a weird hole in the wall on like a catwalk, a thing near the beginning of the game, but that wasn't really evidence. But hopefully you could do that again after the wait
I'm not convinced he's actually dead. Until I see proof, like his body (without the "body gets up for a jumpscare" thing) or if we see him as part of the Prototype.
Yeah, but if he did the science and if he proves that he would be dead, then that just means mob, entertainment is greedy, that is, if he proved that that was the case, the point is that it would be interesting
@@christianaustin2349 I'm just saying that I've seen this fake out before.
i have a theory
at first hamlen tried using the tapes as phalacterys
a magical item that keeps the souls of people inside them turning the person into a lich like form dnd to i dont khow learn immortality but then they summoned a demon by leaving the body souless so they started plannig to use the demons as weapons
so they did their experiments
so if joan for example lost a bit of her soul like and that bit was put into a tape it would explain how joan is alice and yet in the tapes
bcs a very well khown lich did the same thing VOLDEMORT by basic rules of magical entitys voldemort counts as a lich and yet he put a bit of his soul into the horcruces ergo the phalacterys and yet voldemort is alive with only a fraction of his soul
so there is a change the possum isnt a future joanne but a franction of her soul yelling to her to get her soul back and when she dies her whole soul will return to the only thing keeping her alive THE POSSUM
btw i heard a theory that the amanda demon migth not be a demon but a quardian angel
i mean demons wouldnt want to protect or quard a human BUT ANGELS WOULD
plus remember the whole stick with angels make themself look scary to scare the evil away
while the demons look pretty to draw people closer to it
My theory:wooly is the brother
I love how half of these comments, some of them insist its jordan and make it clear they didnt watch the video at all☠️ I feel like this theory could be true and maybe they wanted to make thinking Jordan is the possum as a red herring, it would be good storytelling, but i guess we'll have to wait until the 3rd game
Okay, I am going to use a overdone reference but keep in mind this mostly more so to make my theory on how the possum can be Joanne and in the same room as easy to understand as possible and is ANYTHING BUT LITERAL. Y'all heard of the stands from Jojo's Bizarre Adventure? Yes IK IK. My point is more so I think it's not out of the question for Hamlin to want some way to very directly impact the Amanda dimension(s), and thus having some kind of being with in that word they can control from a small distance, like a JJBA stand, would be something very useful. Joanne is an ex-Hamlin employee, so it makes sense that if such a thing exists(which is admitedly a big if) then she would have one.
I think the possom is her little brother but you could be right
Yeah me too but maybe
Im pretty sure wooly attacked joanne
Yeah, wooly can probably control his demon just Amanda can.
Good theory :]
4:40 AYOOOO
bro they are kids 🤦🏿♂🤦🏿♂🤦🏿♂
745th like Joanne is not the possum it’s Jordan, her brother
I think the possum is possibly her brother
Ngl it's joannes brother by one key factor when it hears joannes voice it jumpson the screen in Amanda the adventurer 1 joanne is on the paper and theres A little brother that is joanne's and on the neighborhood tape it shouts parts of a name joanne yes i copied this from game theory
Well... It could be kate..calling to Joanne
Personally, when I saw them First I thought it's Kate
I Love the cutcafe timeline theory (timeline theory for short) but theres no... strong evedence for it exsisting? (also it means that time travel is part of the universe sooo :l )
"Well, if theres no evedence against timeline theory!" Yeah thats what I was also thinking BUT if you replay the first tape "Let's Plan a Trip" after the tape that wolly apears first "Let's Practice Patience!" then he will apear in the ending scene, Thus timeline theory is not true :(
"Okay well who could the possum be?" Thats a good question
Cant be Sam beacuse hes wolly, an employee at hamlen hoping to reconnect to his daughter
Cant be Kate, cos she is dea... Kate... IT FITS???
SHE COULDN'T SEE, AND IN "Do You Feel Safe?" WHERE SHE HEARS SOMEONE (Joanne) SAYNONONOnonoNO tihs isn't airtight idk why I was yappin bout this theory it has alot of holes
sorry for being wrong
huh... well this isn't as airtight as i was thinking... if this theory is true wolly (sam I think) would refer to Kate as a STRANGER soo :(
1:44 (this vid) Kate:Joanne is dead
Six hour gang anyone???
Aren’t possums Australian? Meaning the correct kind of possum would be the Opossum. As they’re in America, and where I assume the games and tapes take place.
The possum is probably actually Jordon, not Joanne, this theory isn’t really that bright
Here I'm going just remind you of this your poetry science lore I think I know why red did not go dancing in front of everyone else it's because of poetry she has something nullifying her own affect on the drug to herself as you see Portuguese not addicted and most the time whenever red is near her he is regularly not being as addicted and same thing with his drug she must be taking that same drug but as a more better effect but friends mild case could be because she's releasing it through like a system or she literally can breathe this stuff out but whenever you're looking at red when he dances more of the characters that have been affected or near him so they must be admitting more of the drug also or more of the effect that caused them to get more addicted but with poetry she doesn't get affected she must be having something to stop the effect and red if he had more time you probably would have made a proper cure stopping the effect entirely like it's like a virus the poochie Labs already knows the cure so she's been taking it but red you want me to cure if they didn't stop him in time
Random fact: i was the 700th person to like this video :3
Pre thery possumn has a cloned soul and joan is the og soul. Second thery it joans brother. third thery (add on) he knows what happens. 4th thery time travel
Hey so you know that pochi science thing? well they’ve made more videos and block blast sponsorship videos… so I think it would be interesting to make a part two to your original fairy or don’t it’s fine
the opossum is joanes brother jordern
Now the possum identity isn't joanne but good video for make it short the possum his joanne little brother which was one of amanda victim this is told in like reports in Amanda the adventurer 1 and the possum calling from the tv was infact joanne little brother reacting to her voice trought the walkie talkie this also explain why she is destroyng the tape for free is brother souls like for the other children but the video is still pretty good i like the theory but there are a some key evidence that debunk it
I can’t really agree with you…
Same dude.
Yes I was on board in the beginning but this fell apart but I think this was just for fun
what???????
Exactly!
The possum is Joanne's brother. Not Joanne
More likely the possum is her little brother
I thought it was her brother!
More convincing then I thought but it does seem that Amanda knows you from previous tapes, which implies a consiousness beyond just within the order of the tapes.
Dont get how
The time travel thikg works though. Especially as you talk about the possum being in the same place as Joanne is irl, idk I feel i need more to buy that properly
Also on stuff with eyes i dont see why the spirits would have to inhabit things alrwadt in the gamr and coupdnt just take a form that would make sense in it.
