JelloApocalypse / Brendan Blaber - Fart Fetishist Anime Youtuber

[Trollblade69]

I feel like I need to watch Baccano to figure out what Jello thinks vibes with him so much.

Though there's a couple of problems holding me back. First, Baccano's one of those shows that's a usual suspect on "Greatest Anime EVER" and "Anime For People Who Hate Anime" lists, alongside Cowboy Bebop and Fullmetal Alchemist. Second, it's a fucking light novel adaptation, so I feel like I'm going to need a watch guide at all times to know what was changed from the source material. Third, I've never watched a single Quentin Tarantino movie.

It is a good show with a great dub. The English version actually has the characters speak with the appropriate accent.

All good shows.

The anime adapts part of the novel. You can watch it blind (though being able to see enhances the experience as it is a TV show).

Third, I've never watched a single Quentin Tarantino movie.

Not everything he makes is a hit but he doesn't do boring.

Hot take: Baccano! wasn't anything special. It's a period piece involving a mystery on some locomotive (I remember no other setting) and has a jazzy soundtrack, that seems to be about it. Oh, and the biggest antagonist in it is some psycho viewers love to watch although I remember nothing else about him or any of the other characters.

Still haven't seen Durarara!.

There were others too. 3 different plots that while ultimately connected, aren't interacting much until the end when it is all clear.

Oh, and the biggest antagonist in it is some psycho viewers love to watch

There are multiple main antagonists.

Still haven't seen Durarara!.

The second season isn't good. 1 and three are as long as you know who the interesting characters to be invested are.

Oh, and to address the Dragon Maid in the room, here's a quote from the comment section of the Lovely Complex Patreon Post

Oh, fucking course, he defended the Dragon Maid dub for being woke.

Just a reminder that dub was despised by everyone, not just "sweaty, racist nerd boys." Everybody hated that dub because they changed the context of the source material.

They took a simple joke, and the localizers turned it into a means of pushing a political statement no one asked for.
This was a growing problem in the dubbing industry.
It got so bad that most fans went strictly subs-only because all of the localizers kept fucking with source material in a vindictive attempt to control the anime industry.
It was so bad that people grew to have more respect for the 4-Kids dub because, at the very least, the folks who work there didn't hate the country they live in.

To add insult to injury, when they were called out on this for their unprofessionalism, their response was, "I have a vagina. Deal with it."

But then again, I shouldn't be surprised Jello defended the Dragon Maid dub, episcally after the shit he pulled with Lovely Complex, and despite all his attempts to make it as "progressive" as possible, it all ended up backfiring on him, to the point it damaged his career and most of the changes he made didn't even make it to the final cut.
It was so bad that not even the left could stand it, so Jello managed to piss off both the fans of the Lovely Complex and the left he attempted to pander to.

most of the changes he made didn't even make it to the final cut.

Most of the changes Jello made DID make it into the final cut. For instance, he changed Risa's dialogue to put all the fault on her for everything because he can't comprehend her actions as simply being irrational, and that she is absolutely a psychopath

For context, Otani kissed Risa while he's feverish, passes out immediately after, and doesn't remember it. Risa was so frustrated that she kissed him in the spur of the moment the next day. This scene is supposed to be Otani apologizing for not remembering that he kissed her, while Risa wonders if he's actually apologizing for the fact that there's nothing she could do to make him see her as a possible girlfriend

I'm only showing this one screenshot, but Jello did changed the ENTIRE scene into painting Risa as an assaulter for kissing Otani in the moment

The statement made by Discotek representative Justin Sevakis about these changes not making it was a lie to cover their own ass.

By his own admission, Jello wasn't blacklisted from the industry, meaning that he also likely never received any kind of penalty for the incident.


Additionally, Marissa Lenti continues to do scripting work for Sound Cadence, despite being the person who brought Jello on the project in the first place. She DEFINITELY didn't get any kind of consequence

He mentioned it affected his career somewhat in his Patreon post. This Tweet might be him covering his ass after the fact to "own the chuds" and not give fuel to his detractors.

I'm not sure which Patreon post it is you're talking about, but it's possible that it's the other way around. The Patreon Post was a lie he made to farm sympathy from his followers, and any time he gets a job it would invoke them thinking "Oh, thank goodness some people are still willing to hire you despite the transphobic grifters trying to cancel you"

A point Joon made during his video was the fact that people who say Jello was blacklisted were hypocritical idiots spreading misinformation, and should be discredited because they got this ONE piece of info wrong. While the video would come out after that tweet, It's very likely that since Jello was interviewed for it, he knew this was a point Joon was going to make in the video, and was reinforcing it in preparation for the video's release

• "1 year ago", meaning around April/May of last year
• "I've noticed hypocrisy in how some critics report blatant misinformation on what actually happened"

Trollblade has the post in the following comment:

I FOUND IT!! It was something he said on his Patreon comments.

So I assume this was initially a response to a guy giving this comment, which thankfully was preserved in text format:


And this is what Jello said:

Also, Joon's video was a fluffpiece that we and many others dissected previously.

There's probably actual problems with the Dragon Maid dub more detailed than "white genocide", but it's not worth pointing them out when the "death to all dubs" crowd will use them to push their agenda of opposing dubs on principle.

Well I know THAT. But from Jello and Joon's perspectives, it's the """truth""". And it's a """truth""" that they insist others believe

I got it from here

Technically, the Wayback machine does load the comments, but it takes a VERY long time. This source should have them pre-loaded
Here's the full comment and Jello's reply

You're either a Pro-Dub leftist who love woke politics in your anime, or you're an Anti-dub transphobic racist that hates women. There's no in between

The Screenshot I sent on the previous post is a good indication of this. ANYONE criticizing the LoveCom dub is immediately labeled by Jello and friends as an anti-woke transphobe, all the while they completely ignore the legitimate problems with the dub.

Of course, you have the other side of the coin. When the LoveCom controversy was still fresh, most coverage of it were made by people who actually WERE anti-woke grifters who didn't give a shit about the show and only wanted brownie points *cough*Asmongold*cough*

I maintain that this is one of the big reasons Jello managed to get away with the LoveCom incident relatively unscathed. He was able to dismiss all criticisms against him by saying that people who don't like dubs and don't like the changes made in them were nothing but basement dwelling losers

Oh, but don't take my word for it

No, we've been over this. He got away with it because the dubbing industry is just really nepotistic. Same reason Kirbopher still has a career.

That's how he got away with it on the industry side. Labeling all his detractors as hateful transphobes is how he got away with it on the public opinion side. No one bothered to verify his statements by actually watching the show, so they just took his words at face value and kept loving him.

 

[Incecticyder]

I think there is a misunderstanding. I am not saying that Jello's career is already over. As I have said before, Jello still has jobs but the scandal has affected him. After all, he felt the need to vent to Patreon after a talking to by his boss. His friends shielded him from most of the obvious backlash but the fact remains: His career was hurt.

It isn't dead but he was hurt enough to need a fluffpiece. Will his fans buy the glaze? Some did but most people saw through it. As I had said several pages ago, his career wasn't destroyed and he keeps getting roles but he is one or two scandals away from actually losing it.

Japan isn't what it used to be. They have started paying attention to what is going on with their work. Remember how SevenSeas was forced to do reprints?

Overall, Jello still gets jobs. But arguing that the climate is the same as before is wrong.

Crazy what good localization can do for a product, huh? You'd think it would make these pricks want to do their job the way they should do it, instead of the way they want to do it.

Same reason Kirbopher still has a career.

Ultimately the only thing anyone cares about is if they'd have a beer with you or not. It's why Dan Harmon still does Rick and Morty, and Roiland doesn't.

They want to virtue signal. Everything else is secondary.
