![[MIRRORED] LISA - ROCKSTAR 🎸 MV version #LISA #BLACKPINK #ROCKSTAR](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/-U58DuCCtZk/mqdefault.jpg)
Didn’t one of the creators say that one of the planned lore reveals was that it was supposed to come out that Trina and Corey were literally demigods with a parent from Rocklympus?
Oh my god??
@@User.name2yeah, apparently both of their real parents are rocklympians who are looking for them and they’re being sought out by beings known as the pink and blue star. Apparently the blue star was actually shown in an episode, it was a sentient instrument that could change form at will. When Corey had it his behavior shifted drastically and he became more like Trina: Vindictive, Sinister, Cruel.
@@dimsufferer9951 now im even more pissed that the show didn't get more then one season 😭
That literally sounds so cool
I need MORE
Oh wow! Where’d you find all this out? Is there a blog somewhere or something lol
My only complaint is that the songs were too short cause they were bangers and that this got cancelled way too early cause it could have had Lore for days. This is an underrated and glorious show that deserves more love
LITERALLY, they are always either a minute or a few seconds long. For example, this song is one of my favourite songs of the show and it’s only a minute 😭 th-cam.com/video/r6lMRzOdTZY/w-d-xo.htmlsi=XEBukaIjyHkpb5xY
REAL PREACH
RUSTY EYES MY BELOVED
my mind is mine and that yesterday song hits so hard ngl
They need to release the full songs phineas and Ferb style
Lanes is so good, I love her. She’s unashamedly androgynous. No matter how much she’s called a dude, or Cor not noticing her, she doesn’t try and be more feminine. She’s a queen. She likes her style and being more masculine, and she’s not gonna change just because of jokes and Cor not noticing her. If she ever lands Cor, she wants it because he notices her for her, not because she became more feminine. Something she’s not.
We stand an androgynous queen
She's also not creepy about her crush! Unlike *someone* I know on miraculous ladybug 💀 but yeah she's awesome I love her sm ❤
Plus while she'd do almost anything for Corey, she's still capable of calling him out on stuff
Mina and Trina are a much more toxic Ghoulia and Cleo from monster high. A nerdy girl with cat-eye glasses and cool colored hair who is in love with a self absorbed girl who is in love with some dude.
Aka every lesbian who has ever had a crush on their straight bestie 🤧 a curse know all too well
Trina from Grojband & Trina from Victorious both getting shit on by their younger siblings😭😭
But one is talented and doesn't know it and... the other isn't talented... and... doesn't know it... OH MY GOODNESS
I always compared both shows, too.
To be fair, Trina was like, CANONICALLY Evil lol.
I like watching Victorious it's a weird and a little good show frr
Boy obsessed too
Weird fact about Grojband: both Trina and Corey are somehow demigods in the short series, but I highly doubt it was really real and just made up.
edit: thank you for letting me know that the creator confirm it.
Actually the creator confirmed that was gonna be a lore drop later in the series if it continued
Its a shame it wasnt made later on, with everyone loving Scott Pilgrim now, music, and lets be real current era shows-tendency to do deeper lore drops earlier rather than later I feel like it couldve survived... maybe a streaming reboot/continuation???
@@StagFiesta Johnny test came back so could come back too. I doubt it though
I could see it as a movie 🤔
Dear god, I was convinced I dreamed this up as a child to cope with… something idk
That's how I feel about a lot of shows Athena covers
I went through something similar, but with a dream that I thought actually happened. The dream was that I fell down the stairs.
When I was a kid I had such a huge crush on characters like Trina Riffin and Vicky from FOP. Apparently, my type was older teenage girls who tormented and mistreated little boys. I might need therapy.
Just say that you’re a bottom /j
@@thegayghost872I'm a bottom.
Well I guess we figured out why
Must’ve helped for you that she’s voiced by Loonette! Or Jubilee or Claire? I never watched the original X-men or Resident Evil.
@@MarxistMomentum Admitting it is the first step to healing. We support you, one day you'll find the mean girl of your dreams.
Trina’s what would happen if Candace’s life had gone _horribly_ wrong.
Did we watch the same show?
What am I saying, I barely watched P&F.
Candace had caring moments for her younger brothers but trina was straight up evil
Trina is Candace if she was actively malicious
Some more lore for you: The Blue Star has a counterpart called the Pink Star which turned Trina into what she is now.
Edit:Also their Demigods and their parents are gods of Rocklympus
So does that mean Trina has the power of the both stars coursing through her veins?
Athena is the easiest way for me to learn about shows I never knew existed or simply do not have the time or patience to experience for myself.
I always really liked the gag that because Cory is a genuinely good lyricist when Cory does those monologues Laney is always going "that was deep they would make great lyrics" idk i just always found it so funny
Also I'd love it if you reviewed Mighty B
Does that mean the older his family gets the better lyrics they can come up with?
They finally played it off in the end where Cory is like “oh hey I should be writing these down.” And everyone says “we know.”
Considering this video is about the same length as your Sofia The first Lore video I would classify this as a Lore
It is a Lore video
HOLY SHIT GROJBAND MENTION. when younger me discovered this series it took up all of my brain space for like. a month. truly a hidden gem
Saaame
11:43 I actually screamed "TOXIC YURI-"
yuri (uncountable) (slang) A narrative or visual work featuring a romance or sexual relationship between two or more women.🤓☝️
There is absolutely no heterosexual explanation for Mina.
Man I wished the series continued, I always wanted to see Corey go diary mode. Apparently, there was going to be a bunch of lore reveals about Corey and Trina being demigods who were adopted by a single dad? And if I'm not mistaken, there was also a pink star (counterpart of the blue star) that was fused with Trina which is why she's so mean.
Holy shit it's grojband. I feel like I'm seven again.
Omg me too have your dreams been crushed yet how's ur career going
Grojband is one of those shows that genuinely shouldve lasted so so so long. It had a great set up and formula, and even showed itself to know how to vary itself enough to keep things fresh[tv, ba dum tsh]. They knew to not have each song be from Trinas rage, having moments of love or even sadness, so i feel like there was so much morei t couldve done esp with other musical genres/styles.
Plus, come on the music effects as they play were so great.
Same I wish it continued longer then certain other fresh shows (as much as I love total drama they didn’t need revenge of the island, all stars, pakitow (forgot the spelling) and all the total dramaramas (the reboot is fine))
Me: Mouthing “Aren’t you!? AREN’T YOU!?” More and more aggressively every video
LOL I THOUGHT I WAS ALONE
and imitating the butt slap
@@maroonai im sad it's gonna disappear i remember being shocked when i first saw a beautiful panting, on a bottom
@@marce420.7 it shall be lovingly remembered 🙏
Looking back, Mina definitely had a thing for Trina.
Bro I swear the episode where THEY SUMMONED THE LITERAL FUCKING DEAD TERRIFIED me as a child
You might like Camp Lakebottom also Canadian also in the 2010s and an added bonus of having the VAs for Owen and Noah from Total drama
Oh absolutely this would be dope
if we're talking about forgotten shows she might as well talk about kid vs kat or any old qubo shows or jetix shows like yin yang yo
Oooooh yes Total Drama and Camp Lakebottom
CAMP LAKEBOTTOM MENTIONED
@@khaliyahjefferson832damn yes she should absolutely do kid vs kat that one's so weird
Someone mentioned it under a comment but Athena PLEASE check out Kid vs Kat, it was one of my childhood favourites and it's got lots of weird lore.
Basic premise is that the main boy's little sister adopts a hairless cat that's secretly an evil alien, and nobody believes him so he has to stop the cat's evil plots by himself
I loved it. It was like a more kid-friendly Invader Zim.
Wait... i think ive seen this one.
I have fever memories of a cartoon i barely watched about a boy who has to hide an alien's identity from his family, or something like that. I dont even remember the artstyle or the characters or if it was real at all. Kid vs Kat is the closest i can get.
Edit: IVE FOUND IT! ITS JAMIES GOT TENTACLES!
Proud to say I’m only halfway through so if I end up redundant, ah well, here we are
But honestly Grojband was like a solid third of my personality in middle school, to the point where it was my first big fanfiction scene that I genuinely got into debates about. It’s my baby and seeing it talked about in a way that isn’t ‘mmmm this show is kinda cringe tbh’ is. Wonderful.
Also got my fingers crossed that the Pink star and Trina and Corey’s canonical demigod heritage is mentioned because it’s basically the only real lore the show has
And while I have you, whoever’s reading this far, I feel it pertinent to share me personal headcanon that Corey, Kin and Kon are all just trans guys, and… just kind of assume Laney is also one and were never corrected. Ditto with the Newmans.
when the literal first episode title is a movie reference, yk it's going to be unhinged
If we’re doing Canadian cartoons, we need Athena to experience the absolute masterful rollercoaster that is Detentionaire.
Omg yes! I love Grojband, but now I want a Detenionaire lore video. It would be amazing. Now I wanna rewatch Detentionaire.
Oh I loved that show so much!! I remember being so pissed at it ending with a cliffhanger
Ikr, I was so mad when I found out it was canceled @@empressawesome1655
oh that's on Pluto tv
Man there are so many shows people are mentioning in the comments that I didn't even know were Canadian lol
RIP to the man who was left on read
AYYEEEEEEE THATS MEEE!! 0:50 glad you love the drawing! thanks again !!! 🎸🤍
Thank YOU again!!! Love love love it 🎸🔥🔥
@@AthenaPOfficialhey I have to say like thank you for making this video and for making the rest of your videos they are very very awesome and great
@@AthenaPOfficialand like do you remember being drunk while watching Caroline and the magic potion and you remember that like to me I thought that was like kind of very illegal to do that on TH-cam where a lot of people can see you and I thought for sure TH-cam wouldn't Stan that
@@AthenaPOfficialbut like could you do Caroline and the magic potion lore video like could you maybe do that
@@AthenaPOfficialand like you remember when you said you would do the Rolymo show like you said you would do it but you never really officially said when
Athena, I am on my hands and knees BEGGING for you to do a Mighty B lore, that show was my childhood and it feels like nobody remembers it 🙏
Same, and that show to me has some of the catchiest music from Nickelodeon. I still remember the songs to that show til this day.
@@empressawesome1655 the theme song in particular went so unnecessarily hard
@@Lesbianlichen EXACTLY!!
I remember that show
And the movie ATE!!🤌😚❤
Unrelated but the receptionist at my dentist's looks exactly like you, every time i go there and i see her i think "holy crap brazilian Athena P"
Apparently Corey would've eventually caught onto how Laney felt about him...but by then, Laney would've moved onto someone else.
even as a kid i also Headcannoned Mina as gay for trina sadly trina doesnt deserve her
I swear there are episodes where Mina falls for Nick Mallory she definitely ain't gay
@@hasshenjo6416 Fair tbh, I haven't watched this show in years but literally anyone else is better than Trina.
@@hasshenjo6416bi then
@@hasshenjo6416 Comphet is a thing.
@@MxMimic I mean there's not much evidence to prove that. She genuinely seems to also be in love with the same guy as Trina the two of them are similar in some aspects with Mina also having a sibling that's in a band which is prob why they're such close friends or more anyway Mina ain't gay or compulsive but she could be bi or pan which makes sense
You know, the creators of the show revealed that Corey and Trina are the children of two gods from Rocklumpus, which is why they both have reality bending powers.
Grojband was my shit! And it’s still my shit up to this day. I love this show because not only do we get a song in every episode but also because it gave us the Corey and Laney kiss before the show ended.
I feel like this qualifies as a Lore video, not a Lore Lite. if there is a substantial amount more you could talk about with the topic its a Lore Lite, but here you cover the whole series so its a complete Lore video.
That’s a good point 🤌 I feel like recently other than this I’ve just been covering waaaay longer series so it felt weird but I think you’re right
We as a planet forgot about this show too quickly it was up there with for funniest FreshTV shows (I mean there’s only like 5 but still)
Also I’d love to see Athena cover Supernoons it’s another Canadian show but it wasn’t created by FreshTV
You can tell this show is Canadian because Corey kind of has that Scott Pilgrim face
Omg I remember this show. Basically the same formula every week, except I loved when they switched things up by making the sister happy or scared instead of angry. Rare treat.
Fun fact, trina's Hebrew voice actress noa kashpitzki was also the Hebrew voice of Penelope lang in atomic betty and would later become the Hebrew voice of Amity Blight in the owl house.
OMG DUDE- While I never actually watched The Mighty B or heard of it at the time it was airing I found clips from tiktok and binged all the episodes in 2022 and watched funny compilation videos on youtube. I'd LOVE to see a video about The Mighty B!
Edit: But also the theme song is a bop, like it genuinely SLAPS!
You would love Lego Monkie Kid. It's like MLP where you cant comprehend how they went this hard on a show to advertise toys.
It's like mlp but with chinese mythology
Mina keeps hanging out with Trina because she still thinks the nice Trina is still in there somewhere...also she enjoys riding on Trina's popularity.
THE GASP I LET OUT! i found this show when i was younger and i still remember the feather scene! I was so sad i couldn't find another person talking about it and that there wasn't more episodes ToT thank you Athena for reminding me of this core memory!
CN did this show dirty
Another fun fact: Duncan's shirt from total drama is actually a grojband shirt. Todd Kauffman, who co-created grojband, was also a director for the first few seasons of total drama Island. Apparently, the skull logo is something kinda like his insignia. The insignia part may not be true as I haven't done a whole lot of research, but the part of Duncan's shirt is!
THIS SHOW OMG!! The amount of nostalgia I have when I watch this show. The animation is really good, the humour was actually funny and the songs were soooo good (but super short 😭). That’s such a bummer this show has only one season. This show deserves better
I loved this show when I was a kid! I remember watching it on Cartoon Network
4:46 As someone who was a MASSIVE fan of this show in it's prime, the extended version of the theme song is even better
Also YES please do a Might B video
Please do a video on the Canadian cartoon sidekick, there’s 3 seasons but I never hear anyone talk about it.
Or another suggestion: almost naked animals which is as weird and great as it sounds
I remember both of those shows
i didn't know I needed Athena covering Grojband, but now that I have it, I definitely do
Dude I actually met someone who worked on grojband and they gave me a print of a shot from the show that was a tmnt reference (its cuz i bought a bunch of tmnt merch from his booth) and it was rlly cool to chat and learn ab what it was like working at Nevlana (animation studio behind Grojband). I can't remember if he was canadian or american but I remember him mentioning they had an american side of their animation team for TDI and other Total Drama shows, which was rlly cool
Mighty B is my sleep paralysis demon... DO IT!
Oh, now ik where Duncan’s (Total Drama) t-shirt logo came from, this tv show
The pic of Trina "going diary" got me excited and confused because I confused her with the pink haired character from the only pilot show The Modifyers. I thought somehow Athena managed to find the series 😢
Never seen this show before but Mina has the same va as Maurecia from wayside school which reminded me of wayside school, it’d be a good show for this series as I feel like it’d mesh super well with the chaotic ass lore videos style. Also it comes with the plus side of all being on TH-cam for free. Starting with “wayside special” which is actually the pilot/movie. And then the next 26 episodes are also on TH-cam for free. Posted by “keep it weird”
This is right next to "Dude that's my ghost!" For mw and idk how to explain that (positive i think im still onsessed with that show)
This is gonna sound crazy, but I had a vision that Athena was gonna use the thumbnail that was used in this video
Like, i knew the exact details and whatnot
The weirdest part is that lately i've been plagued with visions, so idk if i'm destined to become a wizard or if i'm just going insane
bro I feel like this happens to me too sometimes and I go huh, so we can both crazy wizards
I remember almost nothing from the show except that it was about a band of 4 kids and it was Canadian. I also remember that it only had 1 season and I loved it so much and waited for the nonexistent 2nd season and was so upset when it never came. Canadian kid shows that make it to American tv is so weird and crazy.
Canadian kids' shows are crazy in general. Our minds are full of nonsense.
Athena posted what a highlight to my day and as per usual when I'm having a rough day mentally.
Hope it gets better for you.
@@morgancrabtree6248 Thanks it did! Currently have a few up and down days
I hope Athena makes a descendants lore one day
The one thing I remember the most from this show was that one character shared the same voice actor as Chris McClain from Total Drama. Hope you do Total Drama one day.
So far my main take away is that it’s Aggretsuko but if someone else plagiarized her vents (and was way less likable) 😂
Yeah, mine too...
I am Canadian. I remember watching the zombie episode of the show, and just thinking to myself "what the actual Shindizzle fart nuggets is happening".
When do monster like to party the most?
April Ghoul's Day.
*rimshot*
Athena P gives me the vibes of the really cool sister/cousin/friend.
I really like this show and I'm sad that it was canceled but maybe somehow it could come back cuz some old shows do come back or get reboots
I appreciate the fact this channel doesn't show vomit scenes 😭 makes me so comfortable to watch
You should do a video on the Percy Jackson and the Olympians book series then compare how accurate the movies series are to the books!
The yeti 😅 34:10 It hurts me that I, like Trina, also had the “type” of “oh you have swoopy bangs… guess I’m in LOVE WITH YOU”
Honestly Mighty B and American Dragon Jake Long lore videos would go so hard
Can you talk about Night at the Museum lore next? I LOVE Night at the Museum SO much, so I'd LOVE to see you talk about it. The lore is also super interesting, soooooo.....
I WAS SO HYPED WHEN I HEARRD YOU WERE DOING GROJBAND
Some Actors have major pull with their movie trailers Especially those big name oscar winner Movie actors. Are you telling me that if you were releasing the trailer for a magic mike movie and channing tatum came to you and said "put this song in the trailer" That you wouldn't listen to the Hollywood hot guy and do it?
I remember loving this show when I was younger, some time later the first fancomic I read was a beast of like 100 pages of this series
If you want a really weird flash show, try Jimmy Two-Shoes. The show that takes place in the, Totally-Not-Hell, Miseryville.
Gonna tell my kids this was Gorillaz
I loved this show, how could I have forgotten it?! 😢
GROJBAND IS SO UNDERRATED RAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHH
I think there are so many funny quotes from this like "Soda bubbles tickle Nick Malorie's nose" also, the skull on Corey's hat looks allot like the one on Duncan's shirt from total drama.
I am SO dissapointed I never knew this show existed because I probably would have loved it when I was a teenager
i thought i imagined this show existing. so glad to know others know this show exists
I remember it. The songs were actually catchy and I found it was an interesting show
ngl, it may just be that i don't know how time zones work, but this came an outer earlier than i thought
also, since you watched all episodes, I'd say it's a proper lore video
I loved this so much, my best friend and I would watch it at home just so we could go to school and talk about it. Then we started hating each others guts and I somehow forgot about the show and just assumed it was some sort of fever dream I guess 😭
If I had watched this show and had a clear grasp on the show’s style and characters I’d absolutely make a fic following the premise of your finale idea. Sounds so fun.
Now that I think about it, I think packages from Planet X is in a very similar vein to this show and may be worth looking into, either that or camp lakebottom
Canada always has the best weird kid shows. Growing up creepie, ruby gloom, grojband, camp lakebottom, EVERYTHING.
Honestly out of everything we didn't get, I would've loved an episode where Cory and Trina had to work together. (Specifically, a moment where she just tells him "do it" and he goes ahead with doing something that makes her go Diary Mode.)
Good idea.
fav makeup art so far
there ARE real hipsters still alive and well thriving as competitors on foodnetwork baking shows
15:46
So… does that news guy come back later in the series? Because if not, I’m gonna assume he just got mangled by that cat.
yes! Later that episode the gang gets back together and makes a love song that fixes everyone's relationships, and that news guy does come back so they can fix things
@@sleepygeekyandreadytodream...y Alright then. Good to know he didn’t get killed and eaten by a cat.
HELL YEAH!! I loved this show as a kid!! I completely forgot how the title was spelled so I could never find it after it stopped airing!!
Thank you for making a video about it- ive been wondering about it for ages
Finally my favorite TH-camr talking about my favorite show as a kid‼️😭
Actually the first episode of Amphibia followed Anne meeting the Plantirs for the first time, not her finding the music box and getting sent to Amphibia
The show was really fun. I was suprised it was never picked up as it gave me Phineas and Ferb but for tenagers vibes.
YESS NEW VID, LOVE YOU GIRLIE!!!
I love how your lore videos are just “Let’s talk about the kids series that have overly complicated lore that nobody talks about because they’re really aren’t worth talking about because there is is almost **nothing** to talk about”. lol (except for WordGirl of course)
Real
As the resident Star Trek expert I have to weigh in that "The Math of Khan" is a Star Trek reference
I’m so glad you made this video this unlocked so many memories for me tmi but I have ptsd and it causes me to forget pieces of my life and I almost cried remembering this show and the tinkerbell books. You made a comment about starting on the trouble with Tink and that’s literally the first book my mom bought for me. 😭😭😭PLEASE do Mighty B!!! You’ve definitely gained a subscriber!!!
I’m so excited for this video, I’m going to listen to it as I do art. Thank you Athena for your service in providing interesting background noise 🦕
