The Subtle Darkness of Skibidi Toilet 

Bro's been planning his April fools prank for decades

OMG I had to re-check today's date

I am conflicted... I watched skibidy toilet two months ago as a postironic gag, but fell in love with the series since. Not in a "the best of all time" way, but a "respectable product of hard work". Where others saw dumb background noise for kids, I saw competent plot development, camera work, inspired designs and general care for the project. I do realise it is a april 1st video, but here you layed out basically everything that captivated me in the series. I just wanted to say - its cool! It is refreshing to see a lighthearted action youtube shorts being taken seriously, even if for a joke

"Oh nice, an april fools video from RGN" "Wait why is it 20 minutes long"

NO WAY BRO IS BRINGING UP THE GENEVA CONVENTION IN A SKIBIDI TOILET LORE VIDEO HAHAHAHAH

never thought i would be watching a skibidi toilet deep dive but here i am

never thought this guy would make skibidi toilet video lmao 💀

Please don’t let this be a one-off joke episode. This is too good!

I like/hate how dafuqboom just wanted to make yet another youtube sfm series that ended up becoming an icon of an entire generation.

this is the most well made and high quality shtpost ive ever seen

I'm unironically waiting for second part now

The idea that the Skibidi Toilets are meant to be the good guys fills me with sadness and despair.

ur ability to seriously talk about toilet cat singing skibidi is amazing, ur an actual talent

BUT HEY THAT'S JUST A THEORY, AAAAA FILM THEORY

I know that this is a April Fools shitpost, but please, I *need* to see more of these.

Retro has finally blessed us with a real theory 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼

This is easily the highest-effort April Fools video I've seen today

If I'm being completely honest... Even though everyone likes to hate on it and call it "brainrot," there is a surprising amount of depth behind Skibidi Toilet. This video is an april fools joke, but that doesn't change the fact that all of these "lore details" are in fact from the actual Skibidi Toilet videos. I think the absolute absurdity of the concept, combined with the oddly serious tone in the later videos, is part of the appeal. Its so stupid that it shouldn't work, but somehow it does.

This video is so well-done lol. I came for the laughs but by the end I was seriously invested, this channel is a masterclass of storytelling and narrative-focused videos on youtube

This may be April Fools video, but it's genuinely informative. Bro really researched (or.. watched and enjoyed??) I do wonder if they'll actually make a part 2.

I was fully expecting this to be an April Fools thing but you actually covered a ton of stuff! I hope you make a part 2 since there is way more lore in future episodes!

After two months of absence, he returns with a masterpiece

This is actually so good lol I actually want a part 2 to this

i can tell this video is gonna be an emotional rollercoaster

Last question: yes, there is something watching all the cameraman and it is the large TV man at episode 60, Cameraman Tablet at episode 62 part 1, and sometimes the secret agent.

Honestly, you're maybe the last person I'd think would make a video about Skibidi toilet of all things. But as always, you found a way to make it interesting and intriguing 👍

This is my favorite april fools, same style and and effort but on something completely unhinged or so stupid that its a butterfly of comedy

genuinly throught this would be an interesting deepdive as i'd been avoiding the skibidi toilet stuff forever and to finally see a serious documentary channel take it on would have been interesting, but that opening isn't sublte enough, i noticed that the style is very different from your usual stuff and my timescode is currently sitting at 0:46 proud of myself for realising the date in time XD im going to watch the rest of the video now, thanks for doing great work, keep it up!

April Fool’s joke or not, bro must understand that he’s now obliged to cover the rest of the series too. There is no going back now! Also toilets are running over citizens and forcefully converting people into their own, so its’s not like they are completely innocent victims of unprovoked aggression.

No way, Skibidi Toilet lore video

If it was just one video for fool's day, i would be mad. Because I want continuation.

You really can make ANYTHING serious and mysterious Respect!

I genuinely hope you'll make a part two, this was very informational about the skibidi

I STARTED LAUGHING SO HARD WHEN HE BROUGHT UP THE GENEVA CONVEBTION

“Skibidi” is fun to say and I hate that

Ok deadass give us more. I genuinely want to know more from your perspective unironically.

Once again, this was far more entertaining than I expected.

i haven’t even finished watching yet and this video has already brought me to tears. keep up the amazing work. i love your content

This video is the best april fools day video; its about something stupid but at the same time its super interesting

The fact that you didn't break once the entire time or mention the date is so damn respectable. 10/10

Skibidi Toilet being about religious descrimination and the horrors of war is something I really wasn't expecting. Even from a April fools video.

Regardless of whether or not today is April Fool's Day, I would love a part 2.

Thanks Retro, this documentary definitely helped give me insight on the amazing story of the Skibidi v Cameramen war. I really needed this for an upcoming history presentation on this major historical conflict but not a lot of other videos went as indepth as this one.

I like how people are so confused who is the good guy is or who the bad guy is. As to my knowledge, the series underdogs are the alliance, but digging deeper converse a lot more that is very interesting. Great video RGN! Hope to see more skibidi deep dives soon!

for anyone wondering what happened to the tv men, they can teleport themselves and others with them, and produce dangerous rays. a tv woman was introduced, this was the first female allegiance member, and has orange rays that can make the toilets flush themselves. she uses it on the glitch toilet and the scientist cameraman take it in to try and replicate its properties(which were used on an ingured (plunger cameraman). a new titan tv man is introduced and seems to be overpowered, but his weakness was his screen and he got stabbed there by infected titan speaker man, but teleported to the tv men base before dying. (titan cameraman fixed him aftr that) also its important to mention that the tv men appear far less compared to the other races (excluding special characters like large tv man, tv woman and titan tv man) he came back in around ep 68 with insane upgrades, meanwhile the other special agents like plungerman, assassin speakerman and luckycameraman were in the secret skibidi base. also the scientist got huge upgrades around episode 65 or so but the bunker squad, joint by the 3 titans and large tv man managed to destroy him to his weakest, and the titans finished him off. sadly plungerman died but met a dude called the secret agent right before he did. he appears a lot in the background and everything from the toilets to the lab that started it all. now, the tv men seem to be kinda scares and appear very rarely your welcome for the research

For the final theory with the « who’s watching the cameramen », it has been revealed in ep 70 part 3. It’s the « secret agent », the author of the series himself, dafuqboom. It is not clear who he really is or what are his motivations, but he has total control over technology, and the cameramen. He can teleport their POV without their physical body, he can self destruct them and he can disable any kind of technology. Also we have seen him taking the footage of a cameraman in a physical copy at the end of this episode

PLEASE MAKE AN HOUR LONG VIDEO ABOUT THE ENTIRETY OF SKIBIDI TOILET PLEASE

Oh yeah, you already know this is going in my work playlist. Glad to be here so early!

the worst part of this is it's genuinely a good video and I'm now curious to see another

Love it! This feels like some of the most fun episodes of game theory. Hope there's a part 2 next year

It's fascinating to me how what started out as shit post grew as large as this

I love your music you add to all your videos :D

i feel like people need to know this before judging the series and calling it brainrot It always gets on my nerves how every single channel chose to represent this series in its early, unpolished form while the recent episodes have shown enormous improvements both in terms of the narrative and the production quality. I feel like people just want to crap on the series and misrepresent it for the sole purpose of making it look bad and whatnot Admittedly, the first few episodes was by no means great and were pretty much shitposts. But just look at the recent episodes! Episode 70 lasts almost 14 minutes (no joke) and animation takes time and effort. This really shows that the creator cares about the series and started to treat it seriously from the half-way point my point is, stop judging the damn book by its cover. Research matters, people please give something a chance before criticizing it. Thats all there is to say, have a good day

i immediately knew this had to be an April Fool's thing but it still caught me super off-guard LMAOO i love it skibidi lore... (ive never even watched the original videos so this is the closest to firsthand exposure ive had and im keeping it that way)

Yes! Been waiting for this deep dive!

Not sure if it was intentional but it's fascinating that you took the side of the skibidi toilets. Either it's super up to interpretation or you're pulling a great secondary prank, given how--in my opinion--it's super obvious the skibidi toilets are invaders and it's the cameramen/speakermen who are defending humans from the onslaught and take-over of their world.

I love this channel as a longtime viewer. This reminds me of a video i saw on the deciline of gen z influence on pop culture and how skibidi toilet is simmilar to the early years of youtube.

Pls make this a series 🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺

This is actually a really good theory, despite being a joke You have made me root for the toilets somehow.

This video was honestly pretty good, especially for an April fools video on skibidi toilet, but I think you missed something in your analysis. The creator of the series released a full screen version of the first season, and in the video, we can see that the cameramen had already established themselves in human society, for example, in episode 2 a cameraman can be seen dancing right at the start, and in episode 3 the cameramen had already established a security force, something we can see in the left of the video. To me, this means that the alliance was attacking toilets not just because they had a hatred of them, but because of their crimes against the alliance, as it doesn’t seem like the toilet in episode 1 had a justifiable reason to attack the cameraman, even more so once you consider the toilets actively going out of their way to attack law enforcement.

dang this is the first skibidi toilet video i've ever watched

I know it's a shitpost, but now I need this series to finish lmao. Why is it so interesting. The cliffhanger was too much

I can't believe i spent the last 25 minutes learning about the lore of Skibidi Toilet

Oh, Retro Gaming Now uploaded! OMG, and it's my favorite topic ever! I'm going to watch this right away!...

this is the moment when retrogamingnow became based

this may be an april fools joke but it was still incredibly fun to watch please make more

People act like Skibidi toilet is the worst most awful cancer on the internet but ya'll also grew up with Fred Figglehorn and Smosh lmao

Not gonna lie, was never interested in Skibidi Toilet content or original series, but maybe someday I might give it an actual go. Just for the sake of it, because really, why not? I don't do much with my life anyway.

it only gets more chaotic after this!

I want more! The quality of this video is incredible.

Deserves a second video, truly reminds me of an ARG channel, and the true lore of the season begins only at the end of the first half of chapter 2. Great vid!

Alright y'know what, I'm kinda tired of this. Why do all Skibidi Toilet explained videos always only look at the original era or the series, and then always make fun of it? Skibidi Toilet lore actually does get more interesting in the later episodes when DaFuqBoom actually started trying.

While it's an April fools gag, I do genuinely appreciate this video. xD

I don't think the cameramen are the bad guys here. The toilets are shown to be an infection plaguing humans in more recent episodes. So the cameramen are technically the good guys as they show no hostility to humans.

Had to check the date after seeing the title

amazing video as always lmao

this was unironically really good lmao

Honestly, I'm shocked how much effort there is in this series... Honestly I hated the series, but now I have sort of a weird appreciation for it. I would love more Videos from Retro covering this series.

While it's only an April Fools joke, I'd honestly would love to see you cover the whole series. I've watched the author before the skibidi and since the skibidi started, I thought the cameramen were good since in the first episode we could see the toilets attackng. I really hope this becomes a series

Skibidi toilet makes me think of a child making their toys fight and I can't explain why. Props to Dafuqboom for all the work animating impressive what they can get out in such a short time.

i want another part so i can understand what this entire thing is ngl its not that bad without any of the outside stuff

Despite seeing it as a joke, it’s really about time for someone big to genuinely analyze everything. The lore for this series goes much deeper with later episodes. And just recently, it’s delving into new territory. You just gotta see it yourself.

what if the skibidi toilets are protecting the humans

When you overthink about it, it starts to make sense, please make continue this

I never knew I needed RGN to cover skibidi toilet, but here we are.

To be fair looking at it now it is kinda obvious it is an april fools joke 1. It isn't minecraft related 2. It's skibidi toilet

No way we have skibidi toilet mystery before GTA 6💀💀💀

counter argument: the cars you see in the police one are clearly abandoned and wrecked humans may have gone extinct or converted

This video is unironically good and I want another one, even if it’s a joke

Ah, such complexion, such deep meanings, truly skibidi toilet is a work of art so great, it far surpasses the intelligence of a normal man, and as such is a work of art I am unfit to witness

I love the dedication for this video

Unpopular opinion: Skibidi Toilet is underrated.

How did we get here

This is the last video I was expecting to see today

If I hear you say "attacked by a toilet" one more time, my last brain cell will die

12:39 "skibidi skibidi skibidi skibidi" got me dying😅

I love how serious this video sounds. I would love to have more of this series. 😂

You are brilliant my dude. Keep up the good work (great April fools vid).

Matpat actually made a short theory about how Skibidi Toilet represents the "war" between Internet content and traditional media, with the toilets representing the internet and the Alliance being traditional media. Much like how the toilets repurpose technology and people from the Alliance for their own use, content on the internet takes things from traditional media, such as movies, tv shows and music, and turns them into things like RU-vid Poop or remixes. The Alliance even blew up the RU-vid building at one point, further hammering it in. Dafuqboom appears later as an in-universe character, possibly alluding to how he wants to combine traditional media and internet content together, spearheading this change with his content and that of others.

Retro has theorizing down to a science cause why does this actually make sense
