Exactly bro there’s nothing more interesting and entertaining on RU-vid for me than to hear the passion coating every word from a person’s mouth like butter on pasta
cant believe im going into a dirty bubble deep dive essay when i have nothing to do with this fandom but its 10 in the morning and you have my attention
It's the first time I've seen this version of Dirty Bubble in my life and I'm guessing you have been told this very often but... GOD. DAMN. You made him so cute!!
If I had a dollar every time someone talked about their favorite random character id have three dollars 1. This video 2. Crumbs video on ethan winters 3. Randomalistic's 2 hour video about King candy! (Watch that one its really good)
I LOVE Crumb!! That video was very fun, hehe! I have some friends who are really into King Candy, (I like him but they're next level, lol) I'll have to check that one out!
dear god i know the feeling of loving a character with barely any content my favorite characters are Revali from zelda, Reggae from mega man, and Battle Kukku XVI from the sonic comics revali is the one with the MOST content out of those i feel like for some reason i'm drawn to characters who are insignificant? like i feel some kind of intense empathy for the way they've been totally shafted despite being really self-important personalities
Oh my God same one of my favorite characters is Thomas from Sould Beacon of the Netherworld and I've literally only seen *one single* piece of fan art for SBotN (that wasn't made by me) and it *wasn't even of Thomas*
Literally had no idea you existed since I’m not in the SB fandom. I just clicked the video for the sole reason of “Ayo, who made The Dirty Bubble a hunk?”
“you can’t make him chubby >:(“ that should not be your concern. he’s a LEMON. he’s a lemon and you’re ANGRY AT HIM!! also as an ex spongebob-spinterest-and-magical-girl-based-roleplay-haver, you are SO REAL. my random spongebob character fixation was the superheroes from the 2nd movie🫶🏻🫶🏻🫶🏻
@@ana.wordswordswords ive been going through MULTIPLE slang definitions of the word lemon and NONE of them make sense. How many slang usages of lemon ARE THERE
You know how LONG I've been waiting for this? WOO WE'RE GONNA MAKE A NAME FOR OURSELVES HERE But all joking aside, I am so glad to see this video, it is just so fun and cute! Also I adore the informative nature behind your take on The Dirty Bubble! I hope this catches on honestly, a thing where people do diatribes and deep dives into their takes and ships with characters. Bravo! BRAVO!!!
i dont think ive ever seen a 30 minute video essay about how a person chose to make a spongebob oc of a big brown bubble so that way they could make more ship art of them with the manray
This version of the Dirty Bubble is the EXACT inspiration I needed for my persona! They have EVERY vibe I wanna go for, all they need is the special hat! Thanks for showing me your goober
I absolutely love that you made this. Always been a big fan of the Dirty Bubble, and enjoyed whenever he would show up. His voice especially, it's friggin' hilarious. Everything was so well put together, as someone else who has a hyperfixiation on an obscure SB character too I can relate so hard. For me it's Incidental 165, otherwise known as the "Sadly I'm only an Eel' Lady from the Tied Shoes episode. And like there's even less stuff of her than DB, but that doesn't stop from making fan art of her since she's so gosh darn cute. I made some art where Spongebob makes a dress for her but since she's so long (she a eel) he stitches together two regular dresses so it fits her, and she still appreciates it. Also I just have a headcanon name for her which is "Eelina" but yeah! I hope this was coherent enough lol, again, awesome video!!!
Oh god, the amount I relate to this video is horrifying to me, and I don't think I mind anymore TuT I suppose being addicted to characters that keep getting misused by modern iterations of their series will always yield similar opinions about the madness of the masses and their blindness to the characters' quality :( Well, I guess making enough art of a character to make you into the '[insert character here] Guy'.
It’s always the best time to be a SpongeBob fan. Minus being disappointed with a terrible season. Anyways I love u (platonically) because chubby gijinkas are my favorite thing.
i REALLY enjoyed this video... not even a huge spongebob fan but you are making me LIKE THIS GUY!!! (i still liked him despite this, but still!!!) i really enjoy the direction you took with this video, and it's nice to just listen to somebody ramble about their favorite character
at 3:20 when you talk about your gijinka-ed version of him the first thing I thought of was dr maddiman from yokai watch,, you would probably LOVE him honestly hes. such a silly guy??? i don't exactly know how to put it into words but he's basically exactly how you descibed the motif you went with for your db gijinka pretty much imo. (not to mention he's. literally the colours of the trans flag????? there is no such thing as a cishet mad scientist /j) he's got so much more lore compared to the other bosses in ykw and has a bunch of neat little tidbits that you can gleam from the way he just. is. he's addicted to caffeine, he gets so focused on his work that he forgets everything else around him, his iris changes sizes DRAMATICALLY when he's expressing emotion like a god damn cartoon character, etc etc etc. anyways. :3 hope you don't mind me infodumping about the guy of all time i just think you'd like him :)))👍👍
OMG I remember those OG Dirty Bubble/Manray drawings on twitter. Dang, that takes me back. It's fun to see ya still get nerdy with your hyperfixations. :D
Great vid, cool figure... LARRY THE LOBSTER IS THE EX OF DIRTY BUBBLE. OK, so in a recent Alex Bale video (if you don't know who Alex is, check him out, he's making and made tons of great stuff). There's a part where Alex makes a theory that Larry, the lobster, was a notorious criminal pinhead Larry, and in the exact same video, he makes the conclusion that pinhead Larry's partner in crime was none other that the dirty bubble but he went under a different name dirty dan. I left out alot of stuff, so go check out Alex's channel. Sorry for my schizo rant.
Awesome video! I did wonder to myself earlier when I discovered your channel what exactly was going on with this character. But I agree that he's indeed weird and adorable! You're obviously multi talented but I think your longer form content is my favorite. You have a great way of presenting your thoughts.
You are the very reason I love the dirty bubble and man ray even more than usual. I’m not very into SpongeBob as I used to be but those two villains will always have a special place in my heart ❤️
Not a video I expected to watch when I woke up today, not a hyperfixation I expected to find, but god damn if you didn't talk me into being a fan of Dirty Bubble and Manray within 30 mins and make me a fan of your artwork. Spectacular to be quite honest.
A neuro-divergent person rambling about characters from SpongeBob was nit something I would be interested in but i love it. (i have adhd so i can understand this rambling lol) also i love the design for dirty bubble i think it suits him better.
Having a strong fixation on a character is so relatable, my friends know me as the Mr. Burns guy. I couldn't help it! My brother was watching The Simpsons one Christmas break and I sat down and watched it, it was fun, but it was mostly passive. That is until I saw Smithers and Burns interacting with each other, and I got that tingly feeling you get when you KNOW a new special interest is starting. AND I WAS ASHAMED. I hid it, and I didn't draw anything till 3 months later. I was mostly shy because a lot of Simpsons fans don't really like seeing Smithers and Burns depicted as together, mainly because of the power dynamic and Burns just not being a great guy to him. But the heart wants what it wants, and I couldn't help but enjoy the few sweet moments they do have together, especially in the early seasons. I kinda liked exploring that fucked up side to their relationship though too. I respect that people might not like them, and that's okay! I just block and move on. I expected this fixation to go away eventually, but oh god it did not. I got out of it for a little bit, but now I'm back into it at full force. I And that's so awesome you ship Manray and The Dirty Bubble! I love them in the show, and after watching this video I definitely want to follow you for more art! I love a lot of Spongebob art and it's one of those fandoms I feel like I'll be in at least once before I die. Anyways, keep doing what you're doing it's awesome! Anyways sorry for the ramble, but ye! I love when other people love a character so much they get associated with them.
AH HA! So YOU were the perpetrator behind the thicc daddy bubble! I joke of course, your design of him kicks ass. It's very true to his camp nature and flair for theatrics. Plus villain's being villains because its fun is sorely lacking these days.
Watching this video(by the way you are WONDERFUL to listen I could have a whole playlist of you rambling about stuff you love) made me realize something; the Dirty Bubble is kind of an homage to campy Silver Age comicbook villains, while Man-Ray homages more of the Bronze Age villains since he's meant to be more gritty and menacing. Like Silver Age Joker and Bronze Age Joker being gay menaces together it's hilarious
Great video! I've been enjoying your content off of RU-vid so it's interesting to see your reasoning behind why u like certain characters :) Also I was in the middle of watching this before it got deleted and I got sad when I suddenly couldn't watch it, glad it's back up lol
as you might be able to tell from my pfp, I'm one of those stranger/significantly cringier hyperfixators whose target of interest happened to become a show for _younger_ kids. and lemme tell ya...it wasn't even one of the more popular, well remembered ones. not only did the show I like died before I even turned 13 (19 at the time of writing), not only is most of the fanart...well, what you'd expect from a kid's show fandom along with things I'd rather not see, and not only is there not a lot of other people in the same boat to interact with...but three of the characters I like in particular, get this, have *LITERALLY ZERO FANART.* "literally" being in the truest sense of the word. although I guess I should've expected that when they all appear in one single episode each. so when I see the parts of the video describing what it's like to be content starved... _I feel ya so much._ edit: just finished the video, and that's a sub from me! also, in case you were wondering what those three characters are that I like, it's Tong the acrobat bunny, Fox King, and Bear Queen from Ni Hao Kai-Lan. the latter two actually appear in the same episode together, as it's the whole point of it...and it's their only episode, unfortunately. fun fact: Bear Queen was actually voiced by Lucy Liu, who iirc also voiced Viper in Kung Fu Panda.
I remember sharing your Phantom of the Bwahpera video with a friend who also has him as a major blorbo, glad to see a spiritual sequel! Hearing about others' odd and obscure (or not! Tell me what makes even 'popular' characters click for you, it's still super interesting!) favs is so fun cause like, I get it dude!!! Some of my big favs are Akira Fudo (Devilman), Chainsaw Consultant (Toontown Corporate Clash), and Whitty (Friday Night Funkin' mod), but I have too many others I could just ramble about if I had the nerve and words hffjdhoghx
i totally get having a favorite character where content of them is basically a desert lol. i got into Yu-Gi-Oh (the anime) a bit too late, and content of my favorite duo (marik and bakura) is like Pretty hard to find. its mostly just the Yu-Gi-Oh abridged videos (which are iconic ofc). this goes for a lot of Yu-Gi-Oh related content though ... its kind of weird because it feels like the series is pretty popular yet not at the same time???
This was so well done! Love hearing people just ramble, especially about their favs! I always thought your fixation with Dirty Bubble was always so cool and silly because I personally loved his design and first appearance a lot! Also this video is so true how I feel for my favs Porky and Elmer. Will yap about them and how they can be used greatly but poorly at the same time! Not a big fan what the did to porky later on only ever being a walking talking fat phobic joke! 😭
I’ll admit- I’ve not seen your art until after watching this video, buuuuuut safe to say you’ve given me a couple of new lovely brain worms. And yes, this is a compliment Edit: caught the end of the video, and damn are those feelings hitting home for me, especially when I got an older sister who is more than happy with her own weirdness. Long live the weirdos indeed.
neurodivergent gang my hyperfixation is spamton from deltarune. the thing you said about hyperfixations not being a choice is very true for me. i have no idea what happened, i just got hit with the hyperfixation hammer one day and ive never been the same since for better or for worse. the good thing is that a majority of the deltarune fandom seems just as obsessed with him as i am so i never run out of fan content also for better or for worse sorry for leaving a comment completely unrelated to the video by the way you aren't the only one i leave comments about him on accident on half the videos i watch
YOOOO I've seen your art before!!! It's genuinely bizarre to think ppl hated your design because I, and I mean this 100% lightheartedly, always thought your gijinka of Dirty Bubble was kinda handsome 😭
Oh wow! I never knew you put so much love into a character. I honestly just saw your Dirty Bubble art here and there...and I thought, "Cool! Hes fat too. Awesome." (too many humanoid designs r skinny dangit!!!) But animatics? ship art? DELIGHTFUL !!!!!!!!!! Your effort in art for them, to show their character and personality. Its pure love I see and feel. Thank you for sharing it. I feel too often people hate on things they don't understand, like the whole "weirdo" trope. Yet go around this world thinking THEY are misunderstood- That misplaced anger for something that- wasn't even made for them...hmm...This strange era of animation/nostalgia giving us expectations for everything to remain static- when that's literally impossible. Shows end, actors die, creators move onto other projects, time marches on. Its natural and ok to change, and even more than ok to end... My nephew gets a whole era of cartoons I'll be too jaded to enjoy or understand, and that's fine. Its a tall order to be a creator in the industry too- but that's a whole other can of worms. I love your takes on him. It's only natural for him to be a quirky gay man with his silly foil boyfriend. It's cute. It's sweet. I totally understand that love and admiration for characters haha. I swear, once I get the time, I want to draw fluff art of them...I knew it subconsciously as a kid...that they were more than friends...roommates even
LIGHT CAMERA PANTS MENTIONED I live for these old SpongeBob games for the ps2 they were my childhood (even if i didnt understand jack bc english isn't my first language)
ALSO your drawings are so cute like you really bring so much life to the characters and i love the way you draw bubble’s mouth. Peak. Also I’ve never seen SpongeBob
I never thought you would love dirty bubble very seriously especially fandomish side of spongebob i am fandom fanatic ever since the 2010s and yes you can say my most favourite dearest character would be fnf tabi cotton dinosaur from ragegamingvideos pineapple girl from minus 8 interpretation of pizza tower papyrus from undertale and finally miss circle and abbie from FPE i like you love dirty bubble and I'm proud for you liking it
After hearing Charles Nelson Reilly's Voice, I think I know some other roles he Played! Hunch from Rock-A-Doodle and the Parrot from the Pink Panther 1993 Series!
I think that one line from the Inside Out trailer, "Do you ever look at someone and wonder what is going on inside their head?", describes my thoughts whenever I saw your art of Dirty Bubble. So thank you so much for sharing a bit of the inner machinations of your mind through this video essay. It means so much to me.
Your art is so cute! I haven't watched Spongebob enough to even know that Dirt Bubble was a character, but I love him now, him and Manray are so cute together too. I love weird little guys like this, so I'm happy I have a new one to like now lol
This video has singlehandedly made me fall in love with the dirty bubble's best fan interpretation AS WELL as appreciate him and Man Ray as the best queer-coded pair since Master Frown and Brock from Unikitty. In short, amazing video, amazing art style, I can't wait to see more now that I'm subscribed 😁
As a gay with odd favourite characters I can certainly understand the pain of having said favs get misrepresented by the fandom or media, in my case it's more the fandom but still
I apolagize for the ambiguous response earlier, I do agree with you. I just sometimes become critical of myself dispite how similar I am to each of you in many ways.
you have made the best first impression i've had for a youtuber period ALSO this video just reminded me of why pre movie spongebob was so fun!! it was basically rocko but with less gross out, which makes me sad how much closer to ren and stimpy it has leaned recently. (and not just because i also despise ren and stimpy with a passion) really i just want them to do more stories with one offs or lesser known side characters and not with worse comic book guy from the simpsons for the 4096th time ALSO THAT CHARLES NELSON REILLY CLIP WHERE HE PUTS THE TOUPEE ON THE GUY LMFAO WHAT A LEGEND 👑
So by gijinka, you mean how Object Show fans just take any random object and put stick-figure-like faces and limbs on them, or…? 3:19 *HOLY CRAP, WHAT THE HECK!? CALL THE COPS!?*
I must say I love the work you did for DB ! As a lover a big fellas, you made him so cute and lovely ! As well as having great dive into his over all character ^^ It makes me wish to commission you for a DB Oc like him X3
i fucking love you. i love your character breakdown of dirty bubble and everything that you do with these characters. only discovered you just now but as someone who goes crazy over a pairing like no one else does, i see you.
3:40 I assumed bubble buddy would be mentioned once in regards to your design process for your stylization of dirty bubble. I'm guessing you just forgot he exists(which honesty, fair) or you don't like him (again, fair. If I recall correctly, he's an asshole). IDK why my mind kept getting stuck on this thought, like I don't even give a shit about bubble buddy. Just was surprised he wasn't mentioned since he'd technically be the same- Species??? or whatever word to describe a hypothetical bubble person y'know? Anyway, it's always a treat to hear someone gush/info dump about their faves ^ w ^ ✌❤🐀
