fun fact, it's actually only the male Platypi that have the toxic barbs! And they are only toxic during the mating season. So um, trans headcanon for that girl.
Slay trans rep!!! Omg if I had a nickel for every time I made an anthropomorphic-animal character and by not properly researching sexual dimorphism, unintentionally creating a trans character I would have two nickels, which is not a lot, but it is strange that it’s happened twice!
Seeing the twink character in a similar swimsuit to the female character you showed on screen reminds me of an iconic Tumblr trend of illustrating how outrageous some female comicbook characters’ outfits and poses are by redrawing them with Hawkeye as the one in said outfits and poses, which was my favorite 😂 That said, both of these toxic boys might be my type 😅 Love the design for the toxic bird woman too!
So Pun names are all that I can think of that work for this kind of theme Snake girl: Ssissy, Hissandra Crab Hands: Clawdia, Shellaine Mommy: Reptilla Playpus: Platina Bird babe: Talondra, Beakatrice Monarch: Papillon [Papi for short] Twink: Twylar, Fangsly, Heartly
Volleyball as slept on reference images is 100% accurate. I also find skaters and ballet dancers to be pretty amazing and also surprisingly over looked.
I really love Platypus' swimsuit with the ruffle skirt, its adorable. Edit: I agree with FennecFeather that she's likely trans, and her name is probably Patty. Patty Plus!
Whale Tail seems to be Godzilla coded. You know, toxic waste + reptile sleeping in the ocean = tall muscly girl with a lizard tail coming out onto the beach to play volleyball, tale as old as time! 💁♀️
We are here to spike ball and sully name Snake- Servepentine (Tina) Crab hands- Pincee (Cece) Giant woman- Kujira (whale in Japanese) Platypus- Bill Spikes (everyone calls her Bill, and never expect the spikes) Bird girl- Toxtip Butterfly- Sir Pretty (cause he just sitting pretty while his friends talk smack) The twink- The twink (no body really knows his name, he just appears outta no where with his scandalous swimsuits, smack talks, and than leaves when the game is done)
If you pronounce Crab hands like an Italian, it would be PinCHAY, which would be perfect, but then her nickname would be chaychay? instead of see-see. Not sure what pronunciation you were going for lol
@@nathanlongs Thank you so much, your rendition of her just plopped the name in to my mind And the fan lore would be crazy around the Twink in the TBUB fandom
YESSS NATHAN YOU DID IT!! I also loved Crabclaw out of the original 3 but I was so hyped the second you said "platypus." I LOOVVE her and the trans implications + I Never would've thought of that! My hc is that redhead twink is blue ring octopus inspired :) he looks like some totally normal guy until you scare him or embarrass him... then he breaks out in blue rings.
I LOVE THIS! That’s such a sweet character moment like if this was an anime everyone would be questioning what his toxic trait would be, and then finally coming out when he misses the ball or fall flat on his face, it’s just so cute! I am also now obsessed with the blue Ring octopus did not know they existed prior to this. Great suggestion 10/10
platypus girl is a contentious pick in the competitive scene because if you hit the ball in the sour-spot of your moves it pops, earning a point for the opponents by default. but she has really good melee damage in combat
Fun fact actually, for one specific frame of her bump animation the barbs become a sweet spot. If the volleyball touches them during that frame, it rockets off like a deflating balloon and automatically scores. The only thing keeping her from being S-tier is that it’s difficult to line up and execute consistently, and even being one frame off results in a point for the other team as you said.
There are some really crazy mouthparts the Twink could have. I think giving him a assassin bug proboscis would be suitably toxic, weird and unique. Also Monarch (Real Name: Matthew Marx) could have a butterfly wing tattoo across his back.
Love your ocs, they're all so cool. And monarch butterfly facts: they are toxic because they eat milkweed, the sap of which contain cardiac glycocides and is what a lot of heart medicines are made from. Birds that eat them throw up pretty quickly, but very few birds try to eat them because bird parents teach their little baby birds to avoid the toxic butterflies ( which is also why a number of non-toxic butterflies have evolved to look kinda like monarchs to avoid being bird food)
@@nathanlongs in game, our monarch butterfly himbo would probably be chugging some real nasty protein milk that makes everyone else sick but he thinks is delish
@@mc3612 AMAZING 👏BRILLIANT 👏NEVER BEEN BETTER👏 his protein powder being called milkweed is absolutely stupendous. Your brain is galaxy big. Fantastic. I’m inspired😂😂
Your videos always help inspire me to figure out what I wanna do (was having a hard time trying to figure out what to draw)- this was a lot of fun to watch while trying to figure it out 💞💞💞 Always obsessed with seeing you do scenes- they always turn out AMAZING!!!
Honestly I think the names you had were already very fighting game, Whaletail and Monarch especially. Maybe those are just nicknames and in the lore they have real names? But like, I can totally imagine a character select with an announcer that shouts "Crabclaw!" when you pick her.
Yeah, there was something charming about using the nicknames while I was recording the video, I will conceit this lol. The video game has to have the camp-est voice when shooting out their names, like a vogue ballroom MC
One of my favorite random words in Spanish is the word for Crab, which is Cangrejo, I feel like it could work as a last name for crab-claw, with some punk rock first name like Poison or Noxious (shortened to Noxi?) lmao. (Also a different type of crab that is usually green instead of red is called Cámbaro which would work too)
oooh i really love the net shadow! even if it's geometrically bonkers! 😂 like the bottom of the net's shadow only reaches part way down the bodies of the back four characters, and yet if we look at their feet they all seem to be firmly planted _within_ the shadow that the net is casting on the ground. and yes i only pointed this out because i noticed it and i wanted to, but it's still a super cool touch! this whole piece is fantastic 🤩
Girl, same, especially when you look at the character with crab claws, technically speaking the bottom of the net shadow is on her face so it shouldn’t also be in front of her on the ground. LMAO but I tried both ways and I liked the illogical version better. There’s a really great Rebecca Sugar quote that I love where she says: if you’re ever watching an animation and you think ‘wow this perspective is really cool and interesting!’ It’s probably just wrong and the wrong-ness This is what you like about it. Great art advice!
Fun fact, Platipi are NOT the only mammals to lay eggs! Monotremes are a small group consisting of the platypus and all 4 species of echidna. Buuut females don't have nipples, they have milk patches near their arm pits that leak out milk instead. That feels much harder to make sexy
I love this piece! And the poses look good (individually lol) But after watching so much Haikyuu just this past month, these moves dont match up as a whole scene lol :P
Omggggg not me getting sports “anime-splained” to me lmaoooooooo😂😂🤣 My roommate loves Haikyuu! I’ll have to check it out, I’m in the middle of Princess Jellyfish at the moment which shows where my heads at
This game isn't just for the male gaze, it's also for the male gays!
Yeeessssssss!
fun fact, it's actually only the male Platypi that have the toxic barbs! And they are only toxic during the mating season. So um, trans headcanon for that girl.
hell yeah
Is summer mating season?
@@ninjabluefyre3815 yep! summer and spring. Although it is the Australian summer so winter for most of the world.
She is a trans toxic icon
Slay trans rep!!! Omg if I had a nickel for every time I made an anthropomorphic-animal character and by not properly researching sexual dimorphism, unintentionally creating a trans character I would have two nickels, which is not a lot, but it is strange that it’s happened twice!
"No respect for these men, they are just there to be ogled"
This is the quote of the year 😂
Also cute girl platypus is an iconic choice!!!
Thank youuuuuu!

I love your description of twink, like he’s a cryptid sighting, Servepentine is my fav!

The crab claw player can be called “Crabitha”

Is this the Demon Twink from the Britney boat party of 2022?!
Fantastic as always~! I cannot believe though that the twink was toxic enough to steal cake from everyone!
It’s always the ones you least expect 👀👀😂
