I’m glad that once he transforms, Patrick isn’t still stupid and completely oblivious, being actually intimidated and afraid, it’s more in line to the OG Patrick from seasons 1-3, the arts also just… incredible like WOW-
@@TheOrcaOffical SpongeXML, from my understanding, deems his victims either worthy or unworthy. It's most likely an important part of his lore as it's mentioned a lot during the series, descriptions, from SpongeXML himself, and other sorts of media sometimes. Patrick most likely died because of what SpongeXML thought of him, with SpongeXML even calling him unworthy. Gary is the only one to be worthy so far, however, since he practically did nothing to either Spongebob or SpongeXML, unlike SpongeXML's other victims.
To sum up what I just said, basically SpongeXML is the judge of a courtroom in a sense and instead of guilty and not guilty it's worthy and unworthy, and those who are unworthy basically die
@AsterGTheFourth I don't know if my eyes are deceiving me or what but at 2:12 sponge looks sad, and it took him to deem Patrick unworthy the longest between everyone else maybe because he was his best friend, and in Hedge it looks like 2 friends just hanging out while in manual blast it goes down hill
You know, I have been thinking about this worthy and unworthy thing with XML. What if the way he decides if they are worthy or not is if they are not scared when he transforms? Spongebob ran, Patrick got scared, Krabs was angry from the get-go, Squidward ran. Garry on the other hand did not think past "Oh, it is Spongebob!" This makes me think that if someone just treats XML the way they would treat a normal person, no matter what, then they are worthy.
Man, I really love when people show the true amount of emotion a character is feeling in their art, and in this you can hear Patrick's sorrow, and you can see his fear, he's absolutely terrified by what his "friend" has become, and is so deeply saddened at what's happening, by the end he fully realizes he's about to be killed by the one person he holds closer than anyone or anything, and he's scared beyond words, he can barely even look at "SpongeBob" from the form he has, the monster he's become, and what he's about to do, the starfish is fully aware he's about to die, but still tries to plead with his soon to be killer, before he's torn apart, nothing turns me off more than a half assed piece giving such little emotion to something or making it feel like those doing the work just aren't interested, but this is a showing of all the passion you have for this, its stunning, its amazing, keep up the good work.
Same just imagine your closest friend the person you trust most is used as a disguise just to trick you and absolutely destroy you at the end you can see the fear and confusion in Patrick's face, all he wanted to do is go jellyfishing with his best friend.
More during the end, I somewhat like how Patrick still believes that that may be still Spongebob, so he tries to put on a smile with the usual "You can stop now, pal. . .", or the "Spongebob, you might still be in there. Please, friend, come back. You're scaring me. . .". Of course, coming to quickly learn that it is NOT Spongebob.
SpongeXML after ripping Patrick’s arms off watching him regrow both of them and another 2 Patrick’s forming from the 2 arms (he forgot that starfish can regenerate):
I've been here sense the beginning of Sponge.XML, pretty sure we all have. And i'm pretty sure we all love him. Thank you VoxBun, for all of the hardwork you put into these videos. ♥
i have a theory maybe spongeXML is the original spongebob from seasons 1 - 3 and 4 coming back to kill all the replacements of his friends, but coming back as a prototype spongebob design, and if the character is accurate enough to their OG counterpart, he lets them live and calls them worthy
It makes sense that Patrick at first wouldn't be scared since he is dumb, so he wouldn't notice anything wrong Edit:This is also a amazing cover with fantastic art and I just love Exes based off of ExE/Faker I'm not a big fan of Hog but this still slaps Low key slapping. Also thanks for so much likes I ain't the kind to keeping changing the comment when I get this much likes, this is a genuine thank you.
Yes! Sponge.XML was the thing that led me to your channel, letting me also find other great covers and fan songs that were made by you! Im not sure how long he's been gone for, but oh boy it was worth the wait.
From what I can tell so far, spongeXML only kills people it finds unworthy, which seems to line up with the 7 sins, patrick (gluttony), squidward (pride), and mr. Krabs (greed), Gary was spared because it was none of this, so maybe a later character such as sandy will also be spared.
Literally before knowing Manual Blast was in this, I was joking to myself how Patrick sounds similar to Scorched and loved it. Update: on a side note, Seeing XML say Patrick isn't worthy and... THAT happening- I... wonder if this'll be a soft reboot of the story? XML's story. I love this guy, and I love seeing you flesh out his story over time!
@@Wishiwashi_64 I know. I've seen the other SpongeXML covers. Thanks for reminding me tho! Makes me wonder why Gary is Worthy but not Mr. Krab, Patrick, or Squidward.
@@littlegoat713 maybe patrick isn't worthy because hes dumb mr krab's only cared about spongebob just for money when you think about it and squidward,was kinda mean to spongebob when you think about it so maybe sponge.xml just thinks that they're using them? gary did non of that. remind me if im wrong please. and if i am then apologies.
4:20 Dang what a cool reference to that episode where Spongebob is forced to take a break from working and Patrick takes his job. Its almost the same speech that Spongebob says when he's sitting in the corner of Patrick's house. Yet its just a bit different so its alluding to something else. 10/10 Spogballs.
Bro the vocals in this absolutely SLAP! Edit: I'm also quite curious on SpongeXML's motives. I've noticed that he deems people unworthy, but unworthy of what? My best guess as of right now is life, but then that begs the question of why he deems them so unworthy of it.
He deems those who represent a circle of sin, like Patrick and his gluttony, or Mr.Krabs and his greed, unworthy. I dare say he is a fallen angel taking the form of a childhood icon.
I like that it remastered the first victim of sponge.XLM with hedge and Manual Blast while the non-canonical version is Faker and Black Sun. I was looking forward to seeing the canonical. We didn't leave the phase that Patrick was shocked by the transformation. Whether it's non-canonical or non-canonical I find that they go well with the situation and that we see the evolution
just now finished listening to this and gosh dang man i have got to say that its honestly pretty well made while the art, voice acting by my dude Austin and the music in general is overall really good. (Btw happy anniversary as well)
So in the OG, patrick notices no difference But here, once sponge.xml reveals himself, he N O T I C E D I have pointed out the obvious, thank you for your time.
Every new song you make you improve so much, it's crazy it's already been a year but looking back you've improved so much, thank you for making so many songs that I'll always add to my playlist
Patrick would feel pain ,but would ultimately not die and would regenerate his body and make multiple clones of himself. This is because in ,"Karate Star" he removes his hand and it grows back ,and Patrick's old hand grows a new body. So he will multiply and keep doing it even if Sponge.XML does rip him apart. Also Patrick's a starfish and regrow lost limbs.
Ok, I've gotta ask: what is the criteria for "worthiness"? Cause so far in this series, the ONLY one deemed worthy was Gary. Everyone else died (well, technically we never saw Squidward or SpongeBob actively dead, but I think it's safe to say at LEAST Squidward died. Maybe SpongeBob managed to outrun sponge.xml tho, he IS the biggest offender of toon logic, so he actually has a sizeable advantage.) One person theorized maybe those who trusted sponge.xml despite the circumstances are worthy, but that doesn't check out here, because Patrick fully trusted xml at the start. Yet, he was still unworthy. MAYBE it's based on general character? But that only makes sense if OG SpongeBob was spared after the chase, and we don't know for sure what happened to him. So, I'm REALLY confused about what qualifies as "worthy".
It's a good question, Someone else proposed that it's because people find him to be scary, I think that might be the most logical answer, Since outside of Krabs who actively hurt Sponge.Xml, Everyone who died to him ALL were afraid of him. I do feel like Patrick got done bad though, He's the only one who got to see the FULL WRATH of Sponge.Xml lmao... Manual Blast too op xD
As another person said, the bit about "worthiness" may be based upon the seven sins. Gluttony (Patrick), Greed (Mr. Krabs), Envy (Squidward), Pride (Spongebob), Wrath (Plankton), so on and so forth. Those who are sinful are deemed quote unquote "unworthy", if that is the case.
This is so good! Not only is the idea really clever but the vocals are spot-on, Spongebob doesn’t sound like every other chromatic and Patrick doesn’t sound like Sans!
@@retrobits2922 I would think xml would think that Krabs is worthy because he didn’t run or started to get terrified Krabs fought back, and Gary just didn’t know
I WANT A SEPERATE HEDGE VERSION OMGGGG The cover was actually very good and the idea was very nice as well and the Art is still as good as every other! I love it!
It’s been half a year since we’ve last seen our spongey friend. Now we see what he shall do. Oh wait it’s also this creature’s day of birth that’s cool.
Bro hedge is just such a banger bro, good way to introduce hog or whatever character replaces him cuz he gets like 1 min on Manual blast which isn't very nice
Man i feel bad for Patrick, getting tortured by his friend faker I know he's pretty stupid, but he's my fav character tho Overall, i really enjoyed the story of SpongeXML, its just so interesting, im guessing the next victims is Squidward, Mr Krabs, Plankton Also good cover bro, my brother enjoyed this so much
sometimes I wonder what would happen if all the fakers met up. like hog, chaotix, spongxml, exe, wechidna, etc. like them just having a good time at a karaoke bar or something, nothing drama related.
@@hollygirlie still, they would try to have a good time no matter what happens, like a time where all the drama is put aside and they just have a guys night.
I don't really consider Hog/Scorched as a faker since they're different beings sharing the same body, but I think it would be cool if Requital was with them despite his hatred against anyone who looks/acts like Sonic
I have been a fan of your work almost since the begining it's pretty cool that SpongeXML is still around. The music is such a banger and I love the cartoony art style you have its awesome! also can we please get a mod for SpongeXML already?!?. Jokes aside I'm happy you still make content and can't wait to see more in the furture!
To everyone pointing out the worthiness thing, SpongeXML goes "I'm Ready!" Why is this important? Because he's *decided*. Its not a reference but an exclamation that he's come to make his choice on what to do with Patrick. Yet still says it with the same dorky vigor as spongebob.
Ironic. Sponge.XML covering songs of an exe that was once a direct copy of EXE himself but adapted into something original while also having the same thing happen to him. Huh, neat. Coral even!
Because starfish can regenerate, there was one part in a episode on that where Patrick had his arm torn off, he then regenerated his arm while his severed arm regenerated an entire body I'm pretty sure
spongeXML and spobMOV are two characters that inspired me to make my own spongebob exe character thats inspired by lord x and im wanting to mke chromatics for him but i need help
