Fun fact: They had the youtuber Hoolopee create and animate gwimbly for the episode since his animation style is known for mimicking that Era of games.
Yes! I knew it!!!
dude I KNEW IT
it LOOKED SO SIMILAR TO HOOLOPEE
Lol I knew it was him when I saw Gwimbly's movements, he really know how to mocap!
I think he also did the cameo animation.
HAHAHAHAHAA I KNEW IT WAS HIM!
"It's my IP to sit on and do nothing with"
Best line in the episode
Ubisoft:
Capcom with their IPs that aren't Street Fighter, Resident Evil or Monster Hunter
Konami
Blizzard
This is literally The Coalition and 343 Industries/Microsoft
"AAH, IF I HAD MY GWIMBLY GUN ON ME I SWEAR-". -Gwimbly
I love how he said on me because usually in these games weapons gets attached to you instead of a picking animation you just have it on you
@@AhmedMalaki i think you're looking too deep into it. Having something on you is a common expression like if i asked hey you got your keys on you? Im not asking if they're literally grafted onto you im asking if youhave them with you
I loved the moments when the characters have casual conversations that feels natural; my favorite is with Satan getting his meal and was disappointed when it didn't come with a straw.
"great - great, exactly... EXACTLY what i wanted!"
Delivery guy: “Happy holidays”
Satan: “Merry Christmas!”
That. Best line. Because it shows how satan really is a devil by disregarding the other holidays even though yes it is christmas eve. Only evil people dont care for the other holidays.
@@Anau_jiram97I'd say it'd be more of a stupid thing cuz less fun and excuses to take breaks lol
@@Anau_jiram97 There's also something really funny about the Devil, from The Bible, celebrating Christmas.
You know, the birth of Jesus. The son of the dude he hates.
Or when the Renaissance Men came lol
I love his iconic "Buzz Off" slogan. His best moment was saying it to that judge during his 1997 human trafficking trial.
Ew ew ew
Smiling Friends has that "controlled chaos" energy from Adult Swim's silver age, but with a touch of the Newgrounds style. Congrats to Zack and Cusack, really hope we get more episodes.
Bruh did you copy a comment from Saberspark's video? lmao
My favorite detail about Gwimbly is the very subtle audio compression they gave his voice as a kind of “vocal fry” that really sells how he’s supposed to be from a PS1 game.
Fun fact: the animation for Gwimbly was made by a youtuber called Hoolopee. His animations are awesome, really recommend him
Oh, it seems somebody said it before me....
UUUuuuuuuuuhhhhhhhhh....
*Cheese*
I knew the animation looked familiar
Wait the same person who did Homer and Zelda RTX?, Hard Respecc
@@draconomega 🧀
I love that they did no go with the wash out celeb tropes. I expected Him to be a junkie / drunk and stuck up Ahole who keep trying to act like a celeb. But he was somewhat down to earth and felt like a decent person down on his luck. I loved this show.
I was looking for just this comment. I was thinking about the episode and it dawned on me that they didn't fall back on the easy tropes or clichés that usually come with this sorta story. All things considered; Gwimbly seems like an alright dude who actually does just wanna make another game he cares about. They didn't use the easy jokes of having him be a druggie or a drunk. Same goes for the big shooter guy. You think he's gonna be some evil edgelore and....nah, he seems kinda chill too and is happy to be friends with Gwimbly.
@@ectofriend Its why Smiling Friends is such a refreshing show
If anyone has a drug problem it was probably Mr. Millipede, but that was treated less for humor and more for actual saddness
Mainly cause Gwimbly didn't even know Mr. Millipede died until they tried to find him
@@quinnholloway5400 I swear I did not hear that last part . To be honest I thought he said America had an obesity problem . Implying that he been overeating and died of diabetes or health issues. I look it up and it became that more funny and tragic.
Technically Mr Frog is a washed out celeb, but the situation is so absurd its funny.
He got cancelled for trying to eat someone, and he sliced off a ladies hands with a check.
I like how he's animated.
He's animated by hoolopee. All of their animations are like that.
@@st4r64 his
It also just feels like a love letter to the animators, communities, and voices of the Internet. You can tell Zach and Michael really do care about and love what they're doing
I think it adds to Gwimbly's likability that he isn't mean or a psycho like mr.frog, he just seems like a nice guy who was treated unfairly yet seems rather upbeat in spite of this.
edit: I would totally play a banjo kazooie/crash bandicoot type gwimbly game.
1:37 Oh yeah, man, I love Jex. Jex was such a memorable character. Love that Jex.
Jex 2: Enter the Jecko was the JOAT.
Glad I didn't have to scroll too far down 😂
Took the words right outta my mouth
Average jerma viewer be like
“Ooh ooh oooh!” Is very relatable to me as a person.
"I SWEAR TO GOD IF I HAD MY GWIMBLY GUN RIGHT NOW I'D"
Omg that nearly had me on the ground with the way the audio breaks when he screams that
@@eatthis8924 fr the mic only peaking in that one part of the episode makes it better
"I HATE THIS RED THING, I SPIT ON YOU >:( "
-Gwimbly
It's the optimistic "I take Venmo" for me. If this happened to me i would probably pay him the 10 dollars, he is just so precious.
Fentanyl took Mr. Millipede from us😢
It's amazing how many great lines they managed to pack into just 11 minutes. "Ooh ooh ooh!" "Guess I oogily goo!" Gwimbly's line about the fentanyl crisis, the list goes on
When your show is so good the representation you make of a popular game character turns into an actual popular game character.
Gwimbly hits even more different when you realize he's awfully in the same situation as Banjo Kazooie, two characters who received the chance to make a grand comeback(minus Smash Ultimate).
he's relatable honestly, he yearns for a time long passed, I think we all feel that since we live in a modernity ridden dystopia.
it's interesting how he's a retro gaming character from the PlayStation era
no cap?
I feel like Gwimbly is related to Rayman when his game series is discontinued and has been replaced by Rabbit.
I can't remember the last adult cartoon show that made me laugh as hard as Smiling Friends did. It's my new favorite show and I'm so glad it just got renewed for a second season.
I really love Gwinbly’s design he gave me very huge Croc vibes like he belongs in that game or Banjo definitely one of the best one off characters
I personally thought Gwimbly's Cameo career was a reference to the homeless tiktoker Daniel Larson. He's become somewhat infamous due to his predatory behavior and schizophrenia. He's become a massive target for online trolling and harassment due to it.
He started doing cameos for cash, essentially doing anything people asked of him. He would also start charging exorbitant amounts for them. He'll read out loud chat donations pretty much no matter what they are, he's been tricked plenty of times to shout out some less than savory people. He's also a serial dine n' dasher, basically blacklisted from every restaurant in the Denver Colorado area. His list of crimes and allegations really go on and on...
if its the type of thing that interest you, I heavily suggest looking into him. There's more than enough binge worthy content online about him, he's probably one of the most interesting internet personality since Chris Chan.
I know it was probably just a slip of the tongue at 2:30 but Zach is still on Oneyplays. Not quite as frequently as he used to be given that he has a show and all but he's still on there tormenting Tomar with hypotheticals about his wife.
It could just be recency, but man, this episode is prob top 3 of the whole series so far.
btw mr millipede died from fentanyl which is wild
The crisis needs to be addressed!
i like how he has a big pink prolapse
I didn't even really catch that LMFAO. But sorta glad I didn't or UA-cam might've demonetized this :P
It’s all the creamed corn
Oh man I thought I was the only one who noticed that. It's like a recurring oneyplays bit poking out in the character design.
I was wondering what the hell that was
Was it confirmed by somebody?
Gwimbly wasn't the client of this episode, it was James. Pim was just obsessed with getting a new Gwimbly game and Alan was just tired of hosing him down and wanted him gone.
Gwimbly was definitely more relatable and had more depth. We got to see him happy, sad, angry, thankful, and it's one of the few times I felt the character was actually alive. Guys like Shrimp and Mr Frog were kind of the same thing from beginning to end, but I'm fine without ever seeing them again. I actually do want to see more of Gwimbly and even James they both fall into that special category like Dj Spit did where they bring the show to life.
“Remember when i kicked your ass over the creamed corn” with the dance gets me every time lmao
"it is my IP to sit around and do nothing with."
Why was Microsoft the first thing that came to my mind?
probably because of Minecraft
(specifically the version that came out on the Xbox 360. WAY better than Bedrock in so many ways, and that isn't an opinion.)
As a gamer, Gwimbly was painfully relatable. Everything you said rings terribly true of the industry, but it's done in such a clever way that it feels like a love letter (and a bit of a 'gotcha' moment) to everyone involved. I enjoy weird characters like this, and Gwimbly's just a likeable guy whom we deserve better than what cards life has dealt him.
You ought to have mentioned how he was animated by Hoolopee, who does a bunch of animations in this style! Another instance of Smiling Friends giving youtubers a chance to show off their comedy.
I’m sorry, JEX?!?
Jerma really popped off in that role. What a gamer.
I honestly love a fan made game of his that 5-8 hours long and just a simple platform.
bro did not just say "jex"...
this episode is like the superior version of the mr. frog episode
Reason why gwimbly is now a favorite character because he’s from polycon ps1 era that represents crash bandicoot and rayman, it hits so real makes us hate big companies ruining their IP’s for money
This is the generation of show writers that grew up with the n64 and ps1. I hope the next generation that grew up with the xbox and wii makes parodies of jrpg protagonists like shulk or chrom
Pretty sure he's partially based on Daniel Larson too. Especially considering the homelessness and the Cameo bit. Also looks a lot like him.
If you can't tell
These guys not only love video games but they also love crash bandicot
I mean why did they finished all games in the oneyplays channel? It's their favourite series
Also Chris o niel is responsible for the crash wah meme
when creators put way too much effort in something cause this looks incredible.
“Kiss my nugget”
“No!”
“No.”
“Oh f*ck yea!”
Gwimbly's iconic purple prolapse
I just love gwimbly’s little “Ouu ouu ouuuu!!”
Gwimbly reminds me of so many retro mascots that have been forgotten. Too many to count.
1:38 rayman
Why? He's iconic, of course we love him. Gwimbly was like my 3rd real game I ever had, I loved it.
Gwimbly is indeed a delight.
Gwimbly got the same treatment as rayman
Daniel Larson is the real life Gwimbly.😂
I like to imagine that he was based off him
"I swear to God if I had my Gwimbly gun ON ME RIGHT NOW I'D-"
The line that most made Gwimbly so endearing to me was him rewatching gameplay of himself from his glory days and the line _"wow, i haven't seen that in a long time... I sure looked cool back then..."_
Love the fact that zach and mike are giving more talented UA-camrs the spotlight
I saw him as a representation for Rayman and Banjo
I love the detail of his model twitching, just like the ones from PS
Qwimbly’s iconic prolapse should’ve had more screen time
Gwimbly just give of a nostalgia vibe that I will admit like him… 😎👍
Why does great stuff just randomly come out on my birthday like two years ago with tears of the kingdom
he's litterally scrimblo bimblo
like in name litterally it had to be a reference to that
It's honestly nice to see Gwimbly get the limelight and love after all these years. I would play his games over and over as a kid, even that cheap gameboy spinoff Gwimbly: God's Final Plea.
Hopefully this is a sign that SEGA is willing to bring out a reboot of the iconic game character.
Dang, I knew Gwimbly’s animation style looked familiar! Hoolopee cooked with this, glad Zach and Michael can get other UA-camrs on the show
Ah yes, the iconic 90s mascot Jex. The Jecco.
I love that when they're in Smash whoever's playin' Gwimbly is dash dancing 💀
I haven't seen anyone else mention this but I have reason to believe that the ceremonial beer pour that Gwimbley did for Mr. Millipede was a subtle reference to FUBAR (2002)
...well, i need to binge watch this.
Gwimbly is just my favourite, totally real, character in any video game
love how season 2 has a ton of amazing independant animators involved. this episode, for example, the 3d chars were all done by Hoolopee, an amazing animator! look up "two pipes"!!
What do you mean why, he is such an iconic video game character, can't believe they put him in the show
He's clearly a Crash Bandicoot reference more than any other game character I mean Crash have a victory dance too and a big head with a long nose
Even the boss fight looks like Tiny Tiger's boss fight
I'm going to be referencing his iconic Gwinbly dance for so long. Honestly so fucking funny, I love him
As soon as I saw Gwimbley I automatically liked it. He's so weird and funny and I love his animation. Smiling friends never fails to set up new and bizarre likeable characters. I just wish they showed more of Smormu
Maybe its just me but Gwimbly kinda gave me like Sonic the Hedgehog and Spyro vibes. Like the villain and art direction of the game felt very Spyro while him having the shoes, gloves and a like unique bug design felt very like Sonic. I mean the title of the episode also does have the words Directors cut and DX in it so like,
1:36 Gex is _so_ forgotten people no longer remember how his name is pronounced 💀
I think Gwimbly is so beloved because..well, most of us grew up with him?
my favourite was Gwimbly feet on fire, where you have to defeat inwading Vampires that kidnapped Gwinbly's family, the faster you can get through the levels the more of his Family members you can save from being turned.
so the games ending changes depending on how well you play it.
unless you save them all, its always a somewhat sad and memorable ending, because you might end up having to fight the tunred family members, along side the main villain Mr. Ibblix.
some people thought the game was too experimental, because it included some very shocking themes, as well as some really heartwrenching endings. So the later games where more whimsical but personally I find feet on fire is still one of the more memorable games of the series.
I hope they re-release them someday.
“You guys have any creamed corn?”
“What?”
Ooh ooh ooh
I appreciate the Homestar Runner reference they had with Troglors name being very similar to Trogdor.
He's scrimblo bimblo come to life
I feel like it is just a homage to Oney Plays too, Zach's silly antics on with the other guys. It would be funny if they did a Podcast parody since Zach and his friends did Sleepy Cabin for awhile. 😂
1:05 “a lil birdie told me…”
yeha ive seen the cameo zach did its exactly word for word what Gwimbly does its just longer and they lay into the guy more its all in good fun though
I think he was based on Bubsy Bobcat. Likeable but hateable at the same time. And his catch phrase "what could poshibly go wrong?!"
1:37 When you call him "Jex"
It’s interesting to know that I am old enough to the point where things from my past are being reference as a far 5:05 gone thing that has lost its touch, so unfortunate. But yeah, surprisingly or non-.Surprisingly this character is becoming a fast fan, favorite of many other people, including myself. it’s hard to think of any other character that’s loved so ironically, but yet wholesomely, but at the same time I could also say, who am I kidding. Because the same can go for sonic the character that sparked the fire on the match that is the iconic mascot revolution of the 90s.
4:40 ITS 104 DAYS OF SUMMER SUMMER VACATION…
did you just say jex. 1:35
3:58 probably one of the funniest scenes in fiction history imo
honestly he just heavily reminds me of daniel larson
[BLUE COMPANY CEO] dips his nuggets like aggressive keyboard typing
Gwimbly looks like he was animated by Hoolopee
I thought that the CEO getting stabbed by James was cathartic
ah yes, Jex the Jecko
This show is so good I must be one of the only people who think it should end after S2.
There's NO WAY they can keep something this consistently good.
Do why everyone loves Smormu
I honestly hate Smormu. Glad he’s dead.
i hope he returns in another episode i really like him
The fact is my older brother the show can you always rewatch the episodes I wish you were still here to watch it with me it doesn’t feel as magic as it used to
