we watched LACKADAISY and its AWESOME... 

Fun fact: Very notably, ProZD actually first became known on the internet as the person who voiced Mordecai in Lackadaisy fandubs, and now here he is voicing Mordecai in the official release!

*Controversial Opinion* : This is a much better pilot than the Hazbin Hotel pilot.

Fun fact: modrecai’s voice actor made comic dubs for the lackadaisy comic that gave the series some spotlight. Also, Michael kovach(angel dust’s voice actor) plays rocky in this pilot.

“Either he’s bricked up or he’s addicted to violence.” Best line in the video lmao

Controversial opinion: we don’t need to compare this to another indie project, just let this be its own thing without attaching or comparing it to other projects. It deserves all of the attention and hype it’s getting, I can’t wait to see what they put out in the future

Lackadaisy actually started as webcomic from 2006 and it's still being worked on, so to see this series animated is pretty cool.

Fun fact: even though the word lackadaisical sounds very happy and joyful, it actually means sorrow or regret

Rocky maniacally laughing whilst throwing explosives on a excavator is personally the most insanely EPIC scene in this pilot

This is the best thing to happen to indie animation in a while.

The animation sketch lines are actually so lovely to see because you lose a lot of character and style in cleaning up the animation. It’s a nice reminder that this was hand drawn.

I've been reading Lackadaisy since 2015 and I am so excited to see it animated! It deserves all of the attention it's getting and more!

Lackadaisy is good asf, can’t wait for the next episodes

aah "strange dialogue", otherwise known as exactly how my St. Louis Grandpa would talk to their war friends from the french quarter.

If you guys love this, the comic is up online and the creator had a physical release at one point.

One of the best indie animation I've ever see.. we def needs more, even in the cinema world! It’s so nice to see animation that’s for adults without being crass. The story and characters have a level of maturity that we never see in mainstream "adult" animated series.

The fricken Warrior Cat’s joke got me, i felt that to my core 💀

I love how you said Rocky sounds like Moxxie when he’s voiced by the same person who played Angel Dust in Hazbin Hotel (Michael Kovach)

8:45 though the Pilot is based off the event of the comic, the Pilot is largely separate from the comics. All the dialogue in the Pilot was created for use in. The Pilot, and was not a comic first. I think the word choice here is mostly to help build characters. Zib is a performer, he literally gets paid to use fancy wording. Over all this is one of my favorite reaction videos, really entertaining guys!

This show definitely deserves more episodes

I really hope this becomes a show. I became a diehard Lackadaisy fan within a day or two after watching the pilot and reading the entire comic up until now.

Personally I think what ivy was referring to when she said "playtime" was less of a furry thing and more of a cat owner thing. She might be referring to the phenomenon primarily found in cats called "zoomies"

"ayo i think i might be a furry now" is legit the reaction SO MANY people have when finding Lackadaisy for the first time 😂

Lackadaisy deserves a Series!

2:11 *Rock and Freckles fighting* "there's gonna be shipping now" *Me who knows they are cousins* AYO WTF---

Freckle will become a favorite for these guys, I can see it now.

I love how they knew that not everyone would enjoy the poem at the start, so they just gave it the most gorgeous animations possible. Absolutely immaculate

I like how gangsters in the 20s talked too tbh and I want more lackadaisy!!!

2:09 I would certainly hope that people in the fandom dint ship them aksjjddb 😭 they're cousins lmao 4:26 I think what Freckle/Calvin is talking about is that since he's always been good, all the time, with no room to mess up or make mistakes, he's got a ton of anger built up inside, and he describes that emotion as "a burning hot fire [inside]". Thats how I took it anyway. 5:57 I just adore how insane Rocky is. He's a certified gremlin child 6:48 Serafina mentiones earlier that Mordecai shouldn't get "sentimental over old times". He used to know Ivy, and he got sentimental, sparing her. (He may have used to know the others, I still haven't gotten very far in the comics yet) 11:19 Honestly I can imagine Mordecai having a preference for just, the plain oreo thins. He definitely would 😭

I love how they are trying to make jokes about it but some parts are so genuinely amazing they cant find anything to joke bash on

On the comic(yeah there’s a comic) the ginger boi didn’t got accepted in police because he was too unstable to he’s the “you don’t wanna see my bad side”

The lines were added after they were done. Yeah. They finished, then they readded the reference lines for a more raw feel. They gave themselves more work to make it look like less.

I really liked that youtube finally recommend a good video like LACKDAISY, just 2 hour after it relesed

He 's forklift certified ! Got me there XD Thanks for reacting to the pilot

2:09 YOOOO THEYRE COUSINS CHILL

This show goes so hard it's actually insane

no way they shat on Serafine's VA 🤦‍♂️ L milk

In case ya'll dudes didn't know before. Lackadaisy was originally a webcomic series which has been around since the mid-2000s like 06. The comic itself by Tracy Butler is full of historical researched accuracy on the 20s and prohibition era also her artwork is damned amazing too! This is full of awesome characters with many layers to them as well many other cool bits on this IP about crimebreaking anthro cats.

The guy that voices Rocky (the cat with the violin) also voices Angel Dust in the Hazbin Hotel pilot

It’s been years since I read the comic and I never got around to finishing it. I’m super impressed with how well the comic translated into animation. Everyone who worked on it did a spectacular job.

I swear to all things holy if a large streaming platform greenlights this, promise several seasons, then cancel it halfway through the first season I will singlehandedly destroy the entire corporate entertainment industry

Fun fact: the gun in the violin case was/is a real thing. It was made for the Thompson submachine gun, the Tommy Gun, which is what was used in the pilot.

Freckle is Rocky's cousin and goes berserk when subjected to violence and handed a weapon. Mordecai didn't shoot Ivy because he used to work for the same people they are and he got sentimental. He's now working for the opposition and is possibly magically tied to the Cajun siblings he was riding with. While he won't hesitate to murder someone if it serves a purpose, he's not nearly as willing to engage in bloodshed for the fun of it as they are. Rocky fancies himself a poet, which is why he talks like he does. Meanwhile, Zib, the band's leader, tends to have a surprisingly broad vocabulary and somehow manages to be seemingly 24/7 drunk despite almost no access to liquor. He's very rarely upright unless he's being propped up by something. Or someone.

I started reading this comic ever since 8th grade and I'm a college student now. You don't know how surprised I am when it finally got a pilot.

5:30 I love how dismayed and surprised they are about the violence lmao

literally can’t wait for their reaction to the owl house finale

Liking something with anthropomorphic animals doesn't make you a furry

This fan animation knows how to "Swing Their Sinners" cause we're on the "Wild Side" of this!. Better hurry before their "Other Friends" can "Roll The Dice!"

funny you mention warrior cats because the director specifically looked for warrior cats MAP animators. Quite a few of my favorites helped animate this. Meow286, Finchwing, Alexharrier, Segamastergirl are some examples.

Known of this comic for about a decade now. I'm super jealous at the artists ability to make such a detailed cartoony style work.

If we really want to compare this pilot to Hazbin Hotel, I'd say Lackadaisy has better pacing and design while HH had stronger character introductions. Though HH was rushed I think it was better at telling us what each character's Deal was. Lackadaisy has years of comics to sell production companies on the characters and concept while HH really only has the pilot. They are coming from very different places and I think that should be acknowledged.

Saw this day of release, and it was absolutely incredible. I went in not expecting much, and came out amazed.

7:11 I love how they drop the conversation when Mitzy shows up

Fun fact: the "ginger cat" (Calvin) actually dances with the girl (Ivy) in the bg and in the comic he started liking her (check that, it's on 23rd page)

"Good furry propaganda" - Quote of the day

Love that you give this diamond of a show more attention, it deserves to rise to the top!

2:09 they are literally cousins 💀 (And let's not forget, this isn't in Alabama)

This Show has Malcolm from the Nostalgia Critic show as a VA

Fun fact: Freckle (the orange cat) and Ivy (the grey girl cat)are a couple

The reason why Mordecai Heller (that black cat) didn't took the shot on ivy (the girl in the car) Is because he got sentimental about it and let it go

This is not furry propaganda. Just because it has animals as people doesn’t mean it’s furry propaganda. Anyway, when Freckle goes nuts with the Tommy gun is my favorite part.

“That guy sounds like Moxxie from Helluva Boss” Rocky is actually voiced by Angel Dust’s voice actor!

I am intensley entertained that every time you guys try to tell a joke - almost immediately awestruck by something

"Ope, that's content, there's gonna be shipping now" *me nervously laughing in WebComic knowing that Rocky and Freckle are cousins*

I’m happy Lackadaisy is getting the recognition it deserves

To be fair a good bit of the dialogue and music when you might feel its weird makes sense when you think about it seeing how it is set in the 1920's.

I’m glad you guys are finally watching this it’s amazing ❤

They should watch a Fox in Space. The creators just released a new episode recently and I’m curious as to what they think about it.

Im just really happy that you guys are watching this. Then it gets shown to more people that might not have considered watching this. :)

1:54 actually a cool fact is Rocky is voiced by Michael Kovach who was the old voice of angel dust. so, close

The voice actor for angel dust is playing the voice actor as the tall violin guy aswell

Fun fact: the reason why Rocky and Angel Dust sound so similar is because they are played by the same VA, Micheal Kovech!

Freckles is sooooo adorable

The comedic timing of 7:52 caught me completely off guard! 😂

Lol Freckle and Rocky are cousins so I certainly hope there’s no shipping

2:07 *sweet home alabama plays*

Tbh, the only thing that is furry about this pilot is the character designs, and even then it's kind of like Disney's type of anthro. You could 100% replace the characters with human versions and nothing would change story and action wise. I only remember hearing a faint cat noise towards the end once.

Bruh Rocky and Calvin are cousins 😂

A fun fact for the warrior cats reference, some of the animators who helped make the pilot are actually from the warriors fandom and have been making warrior animatics for years. So they have a lot of practice with drawing cats lol.

1:46 They both have similarities, but the main difference is presentation. Hazbin Hotel is more bold and aggressive, while Lackadaisy is more classy.

I like how everyone's hyping up this animation. I was following the production and i honestly thought that was an unknown underrated project for some reason

2:20 Nah furries own guns since Shadow the hedgehog game existed

According to the wiki, Freckle and Pepper are together. Of course, you can't stop the internet from shipping Rocky and Freckle anyways

I hope to Christ that people don't ship Freckle and Rocky...they're cousins guys, c'mon.

Pains me every time a comparison to Helluva is made since they're literally nothing alike 💀

3:05 it *IS* known as the “Chicago Piano”, after all.

Fun fact Michael kovacvoices Rocky the blue cat and prozd voices Mordecai the black cat

thank god I stayed and subscribed to u guys cause holyshiet u guys r funny and rlly love u guys's banter lol

Freckle got me actin up on god.

Yo Micheal kovach plays Rocky, Micheal kovach is known for playing Angel dust in the Hazbin Hotel pilot. Lol, also agreed all the males in this show are so fine :,D

seeing them roasting the show while simultaneously praising it is the funniest shit ive ever listened to

Fun fact: The guy that voices rocky voices angel dust ( or used to)

It is an amazing animation, they went full ham whit their dedication

Cause Michael kovach who voiced angel dust in the pilot of hazbin. Voices in this also lackadaisy is a comic i think the book is already done but it barely got a series now and yes i think helluva and hazbin some of the people worked this i think

Literally got a ad for lackadaisy season 1 watching this

I needed this after I just watched The Owl House finale I'm in a vulnerable place right now

Well the webcomic for lackadaisy is from 2006... so if someone "copyed" anything its hazbin hotel lol😂

3:46 wuuuh? Her voice is ❤️. What are you on?

Here’s a bit of info, Ivy and Freckle(Calvin is his actual name) are actually dating in the series. Ivy just saw him and decided he’s her’s now, and he kinda just goes a long with it, so it’s not as much shipping as them being a couple. Also Freckle and Rocky are cousins so there’s no shipping there. And this whole episode isn’t part of the comics it’s a non-canon adventure I’m pretty sure

FUNNY YOU MENTIONED WARRIORS. I LOVED THE WARRIOR CATS BOOKS! I STILL HAVE SOME OF THEM AS WELL AS THE ULTIMATE GUIDE!
