I don't wanna come off as a jerk, but you guys should stop reacting to Jontron. Jontron is a white supremacist and an antivaxxer. So please, stop giving him attention.
I never read it, but I was watching Brainscratchcomms's Doom Eternal let's play commentary (I believe it was Part 7) and one of the commentators started talking about the Animorph lore, and apparently there is a scene where one of the kids is a gorilla and is apparently walking around holding onto his intestines after his gut was sliced open or something and the other commentators were like "WTF IS GOING ON IN THIS KIDS BOOK SERIES?!"
Yeah,I remember that specific book, as it went into detail about how dangerous the cube is and why they had to hide it somewhere no living creature can come into contact with it. I remember another animal in that same book (I think it might have been a cow) also gained the morphing power, and turned into a human but still had animal intelligence. At least until near the end of the book where it made a seemingly conscious effort to save the life of another character, and was said to seemingly have some level of recognition of a gained sentence. Then died literally seconds later. Then there's the story where a new kid was brought into their group, and he turned on the group and tried to kill them all, and they beat him by tricking him into turning into a mouse/rat and trapping him until he was stuck in that form, and they left him to spend the rest of his short life on a small island away from people.
It still surprises me knowing that one of the stars from the Animorphs show is Shawn Ashmore aka Iceman from X-Men. I just recently watched him in The Rookie!
You know at least Spider-Man got his powers because a radioactive spider dangled down and bit Peter’s hand he didn’t dip a spider in radiation and have it bite him because it’s cool
I actually watched this as a kid, can’t remember where they left off but I remember a lot about it. Spoiler alert, pretty sure that alien centaur that came out the ship and was eaten was Tobious’ dad
Yeah, you've got that right. I read the books and have a decent memory for details about stuff I have no business remembering. The alien that got eaten was Tobias' dad, and a character that joins later is his uncle on his dad's side. Also, the books have a hint that it's his dad that you only think is something weird until you have the benefit of hindsight.
I remember when I was in primary school we had the book fairs with the scholastic mail order things, I would usually get Captain Underpants books and maybe a couple other things that caught my fancy, but I remember one time they didn't have one of the things I ordered so they sent me an Animorphs book instead, all I remember about it is starting it on a whim one night and it being about one of the yeerks possessing some woman who gave a really depressing inner monologue about how she couldn't see her family anymore or something so I put it down and that was pretty much the extent of my experience with the franchise. Ironically I think I got a ghost stories book the same way which was my first to the Hoichi the Earless tale from Lafcadio Hearn's Kwaidan which I've recently revisited as an adult close to 20 years later. Can't say I ever watched the Animorphs TV show despite being marginally aware of it but I definitely have that retrograde experience with the AYAOTD and Goosebumps TV series, though being Latin American what I saw on TV as a kid were the dubbed versions.
We all know that Tobias got stuck as the bird, but that's not even a fraction of the insanity that happens in the books. For instance, Tobias eventually gains the ability to morph back into his human form. The way he does this is by making a deal with an eldritch god to go back in time so he can touch his past self therefore gaining that form as one of his morphs. No, I'm not making that up.
Great analysis, thank you! Just a quick off-topic question: I have a SafePal wallet with USDT, and I have the seed phrase. (air carpet target dish off jeans toilet sweet piano spoil fruit essay). How should I go about transferring them to Binance?
Nic's Microphone was not working properly in this video. Sorry Everyone.
It happens sometimes Renegades

Animorphs got strangely darker as the books went on; I remember when an ant got the animorph powers and accidentally turned into a human.
That's because the author was extremely anti-war and wanted to make it clear that with war comes loss and suffering.

The entire cast dies in a big kamikaze in the end
Wtf

🥉 Thanks Caleb.

Hey Nate, might want to check on Nic’s mike. I could barely hear what he was saying. If the mike is fine then it might need to be moved closer.
"War Crimes of the Animorphs" from BestFriendWil would be a good follow up to this
Probably one of my favorite Jontron videos he's done in a while
Nic, is your microphone working, I can’t hear anything you are saying
You know at least Spider-Man got his powers because a radioactive spider dangled down and bit Peter’s hand he didn’t dip a spider in radiation and have it bite him because it’s cool
2:49 he even had the television show RL Stein the haunting hour which was more adult goosebumps
The thumbnail is just wonderful in my opinion
I wish there was an official full version of their theme song.
Me too

The wheel bit is the first time I’ve laughed hard in a while.
5:38 He's playing Beast Wars for PS1
Nic’s mic is broken.
What a classic TV show this was back in the day.
Second! Animorphs?! Let’s go!!!!! (Animorphs book reader first. The TV series? Is in a league all its own. With no budget)
🥈
RIP Nic's mic

“It’s Animorphin’ Time!”

Animorphs was a decent book but I grew up magic treehouse and goosebumps more lol I read like 2 animorphs books
The books are still amazing, and they put this series to shame in comparison 😉
Nick, I think you’re mic is off or probably something wrong with it.
What's up with sci-fi movies/shows and glowing cubes
It was in the original books.
I was hoping you would react to it)

16:40 I made A comment about that under Jon's video.
Gee, if only I could hear what the other person was saying
Nate, can you please put subtitles on the video so we can know what Nick was saying?
Yessss jontron
Is Nic quieter or is that just me?
First.
