Enjoyed this

JComX responds:

Thank you!

Informative. I like it.
I don't think we've seen a long format docu-show on newgrounds since the Patchman: Spirit Science days.

Good luck to you and I'll stay tuned for more episodes.

JComX responds:

Thank you! I look forward to making more! I hope you like them!

The animated bits are charming, the enthusiasm is definitely there, but the attempts at humor were meh at best, and that whole thing with the damsel in distress trope was excessive. It took you over forty seconds to say, "I don't like the storyline," in the most asshole manner possible. It made the video go from being dorky and fun to kind of awkward after that.

Glad you mentioned the original cartoon series. Most are too preoccupied with dunking on the other embarrassing mess that is the Donkey Kong Country show from the late nineties.

JComX responds:

Thanks for the feedback! Yeah, that part does drag on a bit. :/ I was mostly trying to point out how overused the trope is specifically by dragging it out, like yeah we get it, we've seen this trope so many times before. Trying to portray that's how I feel about the trope. But it just ends up not being as funny. Thanks for watching!
