We need to discuss the depressing backstory of Captain Gantu. How did a high ranking officer of the Galactic Armada become a loyal henchman of one of the most nefarious villains across the universe: Dr. Jacques von Hämsterviel?

Have a magical day, fun people! #imaginative
You know I'm glad Gantu was given a redemption arc through out the Lilo and Stitch franchise. He may started out as the main antagonist of the first film but he becomes one of the few Disney Villains ever to be redeemed. Speaking of which when will you do a Full Story for Iago?
th-cam.com/video/5NB-mcc3fBI/w-d-xo.html is finally here
It was nice to see
Well actually I don’t think he was a villain to begin with he was pursuing Stitch who was very dangerous at the time he was doing his job.
Then the anime fucked it all up and made them go back to working for Hamsterveil….
@@awesomeocelot7475 obviously they didn’t understand the character.
i remember a fanfiction that explained why gantu served hamstervile, namely hamsterville had his adoptive daughter captive. it only had three chapters, but it was good.
but this makes perfect sense.
Sounds like a great story! Do you remember the name of it? Or the author? :)
@@kaytlinjustis5643 its entitled Janaa and its author is MarisMartis
@@evanraynolds8699 Thank you very much! ^^
@@kaytlinjustis5643 you are welcome
@@evanraynolds8699 is it on ao3?
I love Gantu so much and I’ve been rewatching a lot of Lilo and Stitch stuff so this made my day ☺️😂💙
th-cam.com/video/5NB-mcc3fBI/w-d-xo.html is finally here
Me too.
Gantu went through so much. Thank you, Isaac, for all these wonderful videos over the years.
This is how you do a bad guy to a good guy!
Wait a minute I’ve seen you before lol
@@SZH4thewin Yes its me.
From a ruthless Captain, to a Worthless Bounty hunter but becomes a Joke Character
Thank you for this analysis. I recently began rewatching the series. Only a few episodes in I realized that Gantu was not a bad guy, just a tough guy in the wrong line of work.
My favorite moment was when he decided to do a Hula dance for an audience and ignored his duties altogether, because it just felt so good seeing him put his own happiness in front for a change.
Very fascinating to see you revisit your Lilo & Stitch content Isaac and at the same going over Captain Gantu's history.
Hope you're doing alright right now Isaac and Happy 10th Anniversary.😊🙏🏼❤️🖤💙
Ganu's depression happens in real life to military workers who get laid off
Congratulations, Isaac, on your first decade. Here's to many more decades.
If you also think about it Ruben (625) helped him find himself
It's been so long since I've been watching your channel but I'm very proud of you and happy for you! 😊
You have to feel bad for him
Great character analysis on Gantu!
After hearing Reuben’s voice for the first time in years, I feel like I’ve heard that voice before.
Fun Fact: Gantu’s voice actor is Tartarus from Halo 2!
Been meaning to watch this series for a while, and now I've been provided a great reason to do so.
Awesome video, Isaac! My sister & I used to watch the Lilo & Stitch cartoon together.
This makes it all the more sad that Gantu went back to being Hamsterviel's henchmen in the Stitch anime after being fired from the Galactic Federation again for the stupidest reason.
Gantu is my favorite .
Can you do a topic on Geronimo Stilton next if you know who Geronimo Stilton is?
I really like to hear about 625 because he is very interesting and the power of him too and I love this gantu and 625 are the funny together and a good partner's xx
Poor Ghuantu Happy decade of your channel
Ah yes the giant alien megalodon man from lilo and stitch
And then here comes Stitch, the sequel that nobody wants to mention it.
For me, Stitch! And Stitch and Ai Is NOT canon. Leroy and Stitch was the true finale, and Gantu learned the meaning of Ohana.
Yo Isaac Carlson please do the Ending Explained of Disney Zombies 3 🧟♂️.
I love this episode!!! Thank you for doing this video
Good to know that i found the one from the fb reel 👍🏻
Do a video on Nani Pelekai from only the Lilo and Stitch Aniamted Original Disney Channel Network TV Series currently on Disney Plus right at this very exact moment!
Me: Ahahahaha and so I appear like a shooting star in the sky I am the master of dimensions the pleaser of crowds I am Nathan Strother remember the name well I have come for you Captain Gantu come join my crew I can make you more powerful than anything you can ever imagine to prove my point let me give you a taste of what I can do
Finger snaps
Gantu: woah I feel powerful what did you do to me
Me: I simply granted you some of my powers
Gantu: you got yourself a deal I will join your crew and work for you
Me: I think this is the start of a beautiful friendship
Both laugh evily
I love u're vids.
Can you cover Jumba story
Damn this is me. I’m pretty sad :/
We’re glad that you’ve come so far! 🤗 We’re proud of you man.😌
I loved the series and movie as a kid and believed bantu was never a real bad guy just someone trying to do his job like the amnesio episode
He last because of his pride and weaknesses he didn't no matter what
He traying to defeat lilo and stitch he
Will never win he let everyone around him
Tell him what to do and Who he really are
If only he know that he can whatever he want he will never be a failure in this is
Why he will always lose
U gotta fail bad for him fr fr and as for hamstervill he let him back because he needed him I don't think he was able to find him and I think he actually liked 625 cause it was his only true find the only one tht actually really cared about him is why I think he likes him but hide it
6.2.6
You’re welcome
Few fictional characters have ever needed a hug more than Gantu.
Oh, blitznak!
@@kevinlee7678 and stolas
Or Zuko
Thanks to lilo and stitch who turned gantu from bad to good just like they did to every experiments hamsterville reigns as a threat to the galactic federations has come to a end and gantu went from being a stealer and a villain to a hero and a helper now everybody gets rewarded
May my boy Kratos Join this party?
😮Wow, the nostalgia of watching Captain Gantu's lifestory summarized perfectly for this video thank you so much Issac😲
th-cam.com/video/5NB-mcc3fBI/w-d-xo.html is finally here in
What about that anime or shard universe
Thanks for making this video. It definitely sheds a new light on Gantu. I’m glad he was finally able to get his redemption in Leroy and Stitch.
Only to eventually get fired for his bad karaoke singing and have to go back to Hamsterviel. Blitznak!
@@kevinlee7678 don’t remind me. Stitch the anime isn’t canon
They gave an impression of Gantu as an ruthless person in the first movie, who had no qualms in manhandling Stitch or in kidnapping Lilo in the process of capturing Stitch (Heck: he even went behind of the Great Councilwoman's back and went to Earth after Stitch even if he hadn't received Councilwoman's approval or permission in the Deleted Scene of the first film), but deep down there's a tragic and desperate person who works for living and is the slave of his own past, Hämsterviel's verbal abuse and his own grudge/hatred he holds for Lilo and Stitch, who by his words cost him his career in Galactic Armada (though it was mostly Stitch who cost him his career, Lilo became involved in their grudge against each other as an kidnapped victim). And I think that his companionship with Reuben, though he was lazy and made occasionally fun of Gantu, served as one of the keys to Gantu's redemption, as throughout the series, despite his pride and grudges, there were moments when Gantu saw good in himself.
I always felt sorry for Gantu (when I wasn't laughing at him). I saw him as somebody who truly wanted to be good, but got lost and needed help.
Amnesio is one of my favorite episodes/experiments because it showed Gantu's softer side and who he could be. Splodyhead shows him trying to justify his actions of working for hamsterville, by calling stitch evil. In Finder he jumps at the chance to get his job back at the galactic federation.
Proving he did have good in him somewhere, maybe even in his foot.
This is yet another reason to ignore the awful Stitch! anime (especially the English dub). Years of Gantu’s character development down the drain with that show’s insistence on being a continuation of the original series (again, especially in the English dub). In the anime, including the original Japanese version, he’s portrayed just as a dim-witted, brawny grunt rather than a complex and conflicted individual.
I remember always liking his design and some other element of his character, even as a kid I mostly felt bad for him because he though he did bad things he always tried so hard and would ultimately just be berated and get the short end of the stick. I think he was one of the first morally grey characters I could recognise. I loved the idea of him being a cop so much, but I never saw the end of his arc. I'm glad he was redeemed, I hope his character got to live a happy life.
"Gantu, a shell of a former self, driven by his ego and slave to his will, soon would to be redeemed and free".
Dang thought he was ruthless villain but he’s actually have the hard and sad backstory
He also turned good in Leroy and stitch
Hey, this is kinda like what Zuko had to go through.
That's rough buddy
I can empathize Gantu 100%. I would be his friend if he were real🦈💙
Also are you ever gonna do any Kim Possible topics Issac cause I feel those are LONG overdo!
Is it though lol
@@tyking33 But what's the sitch?
@@kevinlee7678 that stich has a glitch
Congrats on the 10 years of content, Isaac! Your videos are very inspiring! Cheers 🥂 to another ten years!
Do you think Gantu is like Darth Vader in a way?
More like in a Comic relief way
@@artisticsolarninja I could already imagine James Earl Jones doing his voice now that you mention it.
@@CJBStudios well Kevin Richardson did a great job for his voice over work who inspires James Earl Jones voice acting performance. He is not james earl jones but kevin michael richardson is far more decent
@@CJBStudios he did play a lot more roles including darth vader, shredder and i heard he will be voicing Kamek in super mario bros movie
@@artisticsolarninja Wait, you mean Kevin Michael Richardson? He was the one who did Gantu’s voice? I never knew that!
Lilo and Stitch the series was underrated. Especially the character dynamics and voice acting. There were even some pretty powerful moments in some episodes.
It was good but the thing that threw it off was the cameos of other cartoons
@@franciscomorales883 which characters are you referring to?
@@hassanalkhalaf1115 characters from recess, Kim possible, proud family, and American dragon made crossovers
@@LegoReader12345hello I remember watching the crossovers.
Thank you for posting the video. I was wondering about the sad backstory about Gantu.
Well, Gantu definitely had some form of humanity and a sensitive side, in spite of putting others at risk, especially Lilo, Victoria and Mertle. But at least Lilo and Reuben attempted to bring the best out of him. Too bad he went back to his evil ways in the anime.
Funny how his head was more pronounced during his graduation and that he mentioned he wore braces at age 13.
The anime doesn't count
@@prufan Agreed, so we shall exclude that canon.
We don’t talk about the anime
9:34 And then they backpedaled his entire arc with the Stitch Anime having him & 625 realign with Hamsterveil & somehow after all of that ended up captain again in Sitch & Ai despite the former show ending with him & 625 apprehended.
that anime is not connected to the lilo and stitch continuity like power puff girls z to ppg
@@da-vidcargill4975 Well that's admittingly a bit of a shame cuz despite not really caring for how it handled Gantu & Rueben, I did like how they fleshed out 627.
Yeah the anime really angered me in there treatment of Gantu.
Stitch and Ai takes place before the Stitch anime.
To be honest despite the regression of Gantu, I quiet enjoyed the anime. An interesting fact about the Stitch anime is that in the Japanese dub there are no references to Lilo and Stitch in the first two seasons, that’s because it wasn’t originally supposed to be a sequel but a reboot, the English dub changed the dialogue to reference the original series and then during the production of the third season that it was decided to retroactively make the series a sequel to Lilo and Stitch.
I'm fond of the anime but even putting aside the question of whether it was supposed to be in continuity with the Hawaiian story, Gantu really does get the worst treatment as a joke character there. Though funnily enough it's in the third season where the original japanese story decides to connect back to the series, that Gantu gets a degree more competency and brains back. He more or less seems to have given up and barely shows more care than Reuben with Hamsterviel being more subjected to slapstick due to Delia.
Reuben seems like an experiment that can take care of himself but stayed with Gantu cause he needed a friend
Thank you so very much for bringing Disney magic, Disney/non Disney theories, and so much joy into my life. Happy 10 anniversary to your TH-cam and bring so much Disney magic into so many people's lives. I’m still holding my hopes up for one day of meeting you in person.
And I felt bad for gantu from the beginning glad to see someone else sees it too
Stitch escaping was a good thing as it did give a better chance at life for Gantu if u think about it. All the events that happened afterwards changed him for sure. His father raised him with a strict ideology to never trust anyone. He wasnt a social bee in school trying his best to appease his dad. Being around Lilo and Stitch themselves changed him for sure as he became less hardened in the series and more sentimental and more friendly.
Can you make a video about what we hope to see in the Monsters Inc sequel
This is why Gantu just charged into the #3 spot on my list of Favorite Disney Characters. That #2 spot belongs to Mortimer Mouse since he's deserves love and time in the spotlight. And that #1 spot goes to Pete since he's the eldest Disney character. Gantu doesn't deserve the anguish and misery that he's been getting, especially from Hamserveiel. I don't why Gantu and Reuben put up with him. All he does is treat them like they're worthless to him. In the Leroy & Stitch movie, Gantu and Reuben got the last laugh when they got promotions and Hamsterviel along with the army of Leroys were sent to prison where they belong.
I sort of feel bad for him........even if he is just a Villain
He's a misunderstood villain
@@mwizachihana9551 Really?
Gantu and Rueben should have there own spin off series
For a strict, callous, and irresponsible half whale half elephant alien captain Gantu sure has a lot of pain all his life and he just would not catch a break.
Wow Gantu has grown from a bully jerk to a giant golden hearted hero with an iron fist
Thank you so much for not including that lame Stitch anime
Amazing video
Honestly the anime is an acquired taste. I really don't like what they did to Rueben & Gantu in the series but aside from that the show's fine if you asked me.
@@mbcmechachu I just wish it was it's own thing. I mean, a young girl dealing with Yokais is a pretty good concept
@@spectradusker4305 I fell like something like Yo-Kai Watch would've been right up your alley in that case.
@@mbcmechachu It is ^^
Yeah more stitch
Whaaaat? :0. When was there ever a Girlfrend of Gantu episode? I don't remember that at all!
The girlfriend appeared in the episode with the experiment called Wishy Washy!
@@IsaacCarlson , Oh okay, thank you! ;)
Good lord all parts of lilo and stitch were depressing. The saddest Disney property sprinkled with friendship.
Can you please do a video on The Ghost and Molly McGee please? Mostly explaining the season 1 finale and what to come next season? Scratch is no longer cursed to Molly, The Ghost Council now know of Scratch relationship with Molly, Brighton is now fill with joy and is no longer miserable as it was before and Molly literally kill The Chairman. That's enough stuffs to talk about for an video.
Yes Yes Yes
This.
I just finished watching all the movies and tv series connecting to Lilo and Stitch and this video feels like it came at a perfect time!!
Gantu is the perfect example of what happens when a crisis reveals a person's true character. His redemption theough siding against his abrasive boss truly was a mark for him.
Sharks like Gantu has feelings
I did not realize how dark and sad his life is when I watched lilo n stich makes more sense poor dude just wanted to be loved and have a happy life
Actually the tittle should be called: The Life of Dummy Head
I’m glad he got a redemption arc. But am I the only one who thinks he looks like Whale Thanos?
@Nisa Rojas No your not.
The big shark space cop definitely had a crazy story, and I have an idea for your next life story idea, why not members of the Lion Guard next I love the idea of looking at Ono and Fuli’s life stories.
He's always been my favorite character in lilo and stitch. ♥️😆 Had a childhood crush on him and never really saw him as a bad guy. He legit was just doing his job.😤
Disney announced a zombies animated series will u be tuning in
Congratulations and thanks also for these biographical explanations, detailed analysis and chronologies of this wonderful world of Disney! Incredible biography of such an intergalactic colossus! He really had a high emotional background! I loved how they developed their existential arc, their motivations and their path of redemption!
Especially great motivating example of self-discovery, social interaction and personal appreciation!
you know the more i think about it Gantu is alot like Squidward Tentales from Spongebob Squarepants.
Poor Gantu, he became the butt of every joke simply because he wanted to be a good soldier, do his job correctly, and follow orders perfectly...
You don't have to thank us, Issac. It was a great privilege to enjoy your videos and content. 👍
Talk about King Andias next
Ah yes, the rise of Keith David.
Gantu is one of my favorite characters of lilo and stitch
While I enjoy your videos and your passion for what you do is commendable you're deducted points for praising Disney....the Disney you describe doesn't exist anymore, what was once a "magical place" is now sadly a greedy corporate mess.
So is the Stitch animé not canon? Because Gantu, 625, and Hamsterville end up going to Japan to try and capture Stitch. We need a video explaining why Stitch left his Ohana in Hawaii and went there instead.
Allow me to point you in the direction of this video to provide you some answers.

Even though he didn’t have much screen time in the movie I loved him.
I'm not crying, YOU'RE CRYING 😭😢
I’ve loved the content you push! Lilo and Stitch content is always my favorite and you’re one of my favorite Disney content creators aside from Disney Dan and Adam the Woo. But so proud of your tenth year milestone. Keep up the great work :)
It is a shame that the Stitch! anime made Gantu a bad guy again by making him get fired from the Galactic Armada for doing a bad job in karaoke and having him rejoin Dr. Hamsterviël's side.
My only wish is we got a name for Ganu's Race
My favorite ignoring Hamsterviel moment was while Gantu was hula dancing.
I’m glad Captain gantu redeem himself from Leroy and stitch. But, I have never seen the entire episode of anime.
WHY THE HECK I HAVE A CRUSH ON CAPTAIN GANTU V.
Congratulations on your successful career doing what you love and sharing the magic. Happy ten year anniversary, Isaac!
I mentioned about Kevin Michael Richardson.
