I don't own The Amazing Digital Circus or any of the clips or images used. All copyright belongs to the respective owners, I merely claim Fair Use for the purpose of criticism.
13:41 Gangle's VA (Vixen the Reindeer) confirmed that Kinger was keeping his eyes closed so that he could remember Kaufmo. He could also have been praying as he was holding his hands together.
A detail of Kinger that really shows his intelligence and responsibility is how he handles the shotgun in episode 3. As soon as he gets the shotgun, he checks to see if it's loaded. He aims and shoots the weapon properly. He even makes sure to keep the barrel of the weapon pointed away from Pomni at all times.
Gotta love Kinger (especially for knowing gun safety)
A Small detail I just went back to check and want to point out is, Kinger even knows trigger discipline. He kept his finger off of the trigger until he was ready to shoot (though at first he didn't when he was checking the rounds, though i'll give him a pass there was he was well, checking the rounds and the angel's body was just about to pop out anyway)
He not only kept the gun down-range (not pointing at Pomni), handles the weapon correctly, and even checking to see if it was loaded, BUT HE EVEN KNEW TO KEEP HIS FINGER OFF THE TRIGGER UNTIL HE WAS READY TO SHOOT (god damn i love Kinger so much lol)
hell you could even say he knew the proper type of self defense with a gun (two rounds centre mass-, though in this case it was one round for each target but was indeed in the center of each target lol)
I love Kinger 🥺❤
If anyone wants to know how far TADC will go with the adult rating, Gooseworx said that the show will have one explicit Sex joke in episode 6.
He needs to know others feel loved by him too.
GREAT KITTY MONK THE AMAZING DIGITAL CIRCUS KINGER NEED YOUR LOVE 😍 VIDEO ESSAY,
28:55 I wish I heard someone tell me that when I was spiraling after my Aunt's death, existential dread was making me spiral. We all need a Kinger in our lives.
Honestly, it makes me wonder, what if Zooble found some shades in their box of parts and for some coincidence, it happens to be the same positioning as Kinger's eyes, sunglasses/shades could probably help Kinger maintain some level of lucidity and balance his craziness, hmmmmm.
I swear, every episode makes the focus character my favorite, because I can relate so much to them in some way.
The Pilot had Pomni, who I can relate to in feeling like an anxious mess
Episode 2 Had me want to hug Gummigoo, and then Pomni after Caine deleted him
Episode 3 had me want to hug Pomni, Kinger, and Zooble. I even wanted to hug Caine. That line “What you’re saying could imply that I’m bad at the only thing I’m good at”. That hit me deep
And episode 4 with Gangle. I feel whenever I’m not masking, I’m one bad thing away from a tearing up.
I wanna give you a hug now
@ thank you
If this was Total Drama/Disventure Camp; Kinger would still been 3rd place to go, Gangle would easily been 2nd, and unsurprisingly Zoobles would've been 1st to go.
Okay?
Funny you should say that; on my tumblr I've got some art of Gabby and Ellie as Ragatha and Pomni, and I'm hoping to get some Yul as Jax out of my system
Epic total drama reference
Honestly i dont think goose should have had to explain it on twitter. I understood it just by watching the show. Everyone referenced their past life the whole show. the only thing we were told they forgot was their names. everyone assumed it meant they forgot everything.
Episode 3 is the best in the show. I really feel bad for what happened to him and his wife
3:17 Amazing Digital circus *just a bit* more family friendly than Helluva boss? My friend... the difference is night and day... I'm not even exaggerating. If I had kids I wouldn't allow them watch Helluva boss either.
TADC handles and presents mature themes very well, despite setting themselves to be more kid / family friendly.
Goose has said that TADC isnt for kids.
@Bocchi-d7c But age rating definitely not 18+ while Helluva boss is sure is.
@ the age rating IS 18+ because the writer said it was.
Thanks!
2:13 funny that you mentioned that cause if you set episode 4 in polish the three gloinks beating up a NPC are named after three of the characters from the book.
26:49, ok, i think gooseworx just answered because people kept asking or didn't understand the pilot.
I wasn't part of the tdac hype when it first came out, i came around to it when episode 3 was a few days old cuz i was bored and wanna find something new, so with no information or influence from the internet about the show (i know nothing about it, other than it was popular) and watched ep 1-3, and in the pilot Caine literally said "No one can remember their NAMES once they enter the digital circus" (i guess most people just assumed it ment the players also lost their memories). To me, well the players still have their personalities in check so they have to still know some parts of who they are, just not their names. And from ep1-4 it seems like the players don't just casually talk/mention about their personal lives out loud (or onscreen) to the other players, they only mention a bit of it or if it's necessary or whenever they feel like it, so far as of now.
Anyway great analysis, sorry for the long comment lol
Finally, a First TADC Video!
Merry Christmas from Australia!
26:50 I feel like the application of that critique is somewhat misconstrued with TADC. The idea that they can't remember anything is an assumption, and the "contradictions" to that assumption just reinforce the clarification Gooseworx made on an idea that's still shown in-show, through said "contradictions". This is completely separate from the clarifications Viv has made, which have no (current, as of writing) opportunity to demonstrate in-universe to where you NEED that outer-source to know in the first place.
That's not to say Viv hasn't made supported clarifications, like the rank system in hell (mostly) was demonstrated in Mastermind, so it's not as "unsupported" as it was when it was originally stated on social media. My point is it's somewhat bad faith in cases where the information will be available to those who watch the respective show after the fact, while giving information to keep people who are experiencing it while it's being released from making incorrect assumptions before it can be disproven. If that information is given later in-show, cool, retract the critique for that information specifically. It doesn't invalidate that issue, it just gives it a lifespan for as long as it is an issue for that specific point. Either way, all these shows are WIP so critiques are wont to live and die as they come out.
Regardless, it's an interesting video!
He was my favourite character day 1. I love him
🗣As always, breathtakingly beautiful analysis/dissection🤌🏿
I have a theory about Kinger:
He's not crazy, he almost abstracted himself, due to touching his wife while abstracting. Instead of falling into it, he split his personalities. In the light, he's dingy and doesn't remember anything, and avoids the possibility of abstracting. In the dark, he's back to remembering. Spends most his time in his fort, so he can remember his wife. You can hear him talking to her in the fort, it's his favorite space. The only light he can be in, is his own while holding his breath, without losing his memories. He also closes his eyes when saying goodbye to someone who has abstracted, so he can remember them. Crazy? Nay, purposeful personality split due to the stress.
See, to me, in order for one to abstract, they have to lose themselves, their sense of purpose, and their will to live. Going crazy doesn't mean you've lost any of those, just means you're changed. You can still be you through any kind of disorder, still have a sense of purpose even if you're lost, and still be willing to live even if it's a massive struggle. That's why Kinger isn't going to abstract. Of anyone, I think it's going to be Ragatha.
Like they say “the road to hell is paved with good intentions.”
As Joey from the tv show Friends says “There is no such thing as a selfless good deed.”
"The road to hell is paved with good intentions" means that simply having good intentions is not enough to avoid negative consequences; even when someone starts with a good plan, their actions can still lead to bad outcomes if they are not properly executed or considered through to the end.
Key points about the phrase:
Focus on action, not just thought:
This proverb emphasizes that good intentions alone are not sufficient, and one must take concrete steps to achieve positive results.
Potential for unintended harm:
Sometimes, even with good intentions, actions can lead to negative consequences due to poor planning or unforeseen circumstances.
A warning against complacency:
It serves as a reminder to carefully consider the potential outcomes of one's actions, even when motivated by good intentions.
Kinger is my favorite character this made me so happy
Kinger is my fav too for near similar reasons (instead of Daddy vibes, I get father figure vibes cuz I am projecting ^^;). I like similarly crazy characters with endearing qualities (like Caboose from RvB). The moment Kinger was spazzing like an ADHD kid being told to hold still was when I went 'Oh yeah. I'm gonna like this guy.' Ep3 sent that over the edge.
I'm torn between believing that photo of Kinger bull riding is legit or photoshopped, but either way, I like to think the reason he got an A+ was because he was having fun. The others...weren't really having fun in that episode. And who would want to have a LARP session of working at a fast food joint? The only one who...kinda had a decent time was Pomni (who didn't go through the horrors like she did in the previous episodes) and Zooble to some extent, despite not wanting to be there. Jax couldn't torture anyone and the adventure was too mundane for his liking, Ragatha was high, and Gangle was going through a Manic episode.
I got him and loved him from one single moment in the very first episode.
He and this other small sad character have been tasked with, for all we know at the time, might be the impossible.
They're staring down into a black void in silence, not a single idea of what to do.
Kinger, with his OWN sadness apparent in his voice; "Boy... We're not very good at this, are we?"
I understood his whole deal right there.
And for yet ANOTHER inspiration for this series, look into the old original Twilight Zone episode "Five Characters In Searxh Of An Exit".
Don't know if it's ever been directly named, but then again, Ragatha's entire stated origin is a straight up LIE, so yeah, it's a definite inspiration.
I relate to Kinger if I think of his need to be in darkness in order to be sane as a metaphor for me needing to be in isolation in order to be sane because of being autistic.
He's similar to the Princess doll in Secret Life Of Toys who winds up saving another character from Beam Land just due to having spent so much time forgotten out there.
I love kinger episode 3 really sold me on his character 😪 😔 😭
At 16:16, i think a better word or phrase than 'intelligent' would be 'rational' or 'clear-minded.' Because Kinger's not really _stupid_, he just gets plagued by brain fog like, 98% of the time unless or until he's in low-lit or dark places. The lack of light actually helps him think more clearly, oddly enough.
Who's up kittying their monk rn?
Kinger has big daddy energy
I love Kinger's sexy voice 🥺🥺
i am just excited about what they are going to do on episode 5.
"Daddy vibes" " I love daddies" " like a daddy" I think we have a lot more in common then your letting on. 😉🍼🍭🍼😉🥰
Ayo 🤨
I miss my wife Pomni
Can't wait for the next episode of this series!
Merry Christmas Eve, everyone! 🎅☃️🎄🎁✨️
There only 3 episodes in a little forma while they find there footing
Merry Christmas KM and family!
Wow all this kinger daddy talk makes me think. I think there's a "Little" something special about you. And that's fucking beautiful
Where does the comparison between TADC and Helluva come from? They are two totally different shows with two totally different tones.
1:11 table top? Does she mean Desktop? Its called Desktop computer.
Love from a Blooms and Vaush fan!
Can you do an episode of murder drones
Would love to see that.
Daddy!
I dont think its as bad as vivziepop when it comes to leaving crucial lore details to social media
How much the characters remember is an ongoing question and adds to the mystery like if one day they can piece things together and fully understand what'a going on or even that they themselves are the ones responsible for being in the circus in the first place
Its like a ticking time bomb
Its part of the tension of the show
Will they piece together information and turn on each other?
And having the characters show hints they know who they are further adds to the mystery
Vivziepop just takes the tell dont show approach
One of the most crucial things about a story is the way in which indormation is distributed
I’m just like Kinger too.
A real TADC fan never speaks I'll of the hellaverse
Something kind of sad about the rodeo is that if you look closely, the fence of the rodeo is painted red and white and the bull Kinger is riding is brown. Sound familiar?
Hazbin hotel/Hellva boss being "first" doesn't make it the best, or give it any special treatment.
Also, DC is an independent production, it doesn't need a streamlined schedule for release eps, when it gets done, it's done you wouldn't want a rushed, half baked product to show now, wouldn't you?
i think it should be appreciated since its what put indie animation on the map
I'm not gonna say daddy
Ah f*ck
Lol Daddy Daycare
Also @op seems you heard that Rɛjəctz song cat daddy...lmao your welcome
You just did.
kitty stop thirsting after a married man
4:48 does anyone know what shes talking about here?
Cain’s voice actor didn’t what?
Kitty Monk thirsty for Daddy Kinger
31:04 how about a Bee plot?
I need there 2 b an adventure where EVERYONE participates. My favorite character is Caine cause I love how chaotic he is. U should do a video on the Gummigoo and Pomni ship. I never shipped anyone in the show, but after episode 4, I kinda ship those 2
Was Todd X Maurecia from Wayside, a good relationship?
Oh man i really don't want this show to just have one season i want there to be more 😫 i hope if the show becomes way more popular towards the end glitch will make a second 🙏 😢 😞
19:57 how does he know his background if all thr charecters dont remember what their lives where like before the circus?
Characters remember things from their lifes, just not their names.
''indie animation is thriving, so why should we make rivalries?''
.. *cough* murder drones fans
What about gangl-
I’m not commenting that
Kinger needs a lot of love! This boi needs to be protected! Also I think this is the first The Amazing Digital Circus Video you did.😊😮♟️👑
