Edit 2: For all you people coming here to tell me it’s not fair to go this hard on an indie creator, your innocent little Camila was tearing down and laughing other people’s work for as long as she was writing this series. And no I am not going to go easy on the child predator enabler.
Edit: I keep seeing comments about this so I’m putting it here. I’m not misgendering Chara/Frisk on purpose. Camila wrote them as males instead of non binary and that’s the only reason why I refer to them as he/him.
Every time you guys think I've finally died for good I'll come back to prove you wrong
Welcome back 😈
Awesome, and I like your oc character
how many times are you ganna die and come back
I’m intimidated
Reserection
blud really killed alphys just so undyne could be straight
Oh my god I forgot Cam did that 💀💀💀💀
WAIT FR?? OH NAH BRO
I killed Alphys cuz i just cant stand her (make undyne a wife so she stay a lesbian)
I WAS SO SHOCKED WHEN SHE DIED
At least Alphys dodged being in this trash show 💀
"Why are all the female characters wearing long dresses?" It's so that Cami doesn't have to animate their legs lol.
I mean, is it really bad that all the female characters wear long dresses?
@@Ebh55.Kinda it gives a lack of variety and makes them more generic
@@Ebh55. Yes, as it's really poor character design. In a modern setting, most women aren't going to be wearing ankle length dresses.
In, say, a medieval style setting you can definitely get away with it, but the dresses would need to look medieval style otherwise it's bad character design.
I understand that in a one person animation you'll want to simplify your work load as much as possible, but you can still keep it fairly simple by just making 3-4 'base outfits' that you stick on characters at random (eg. long dress, trousers plus t-shirt, trousers plus hoodie, and t-shirt plus mid length skirt (for the guys switch out dress with trousers plu shirt, and the skirt one with t-shirt plus shorts)). There, a simple way to give a much needed boost of variety to your background characters without notably increasing your workload. Like, as an animator myself I find the lack of effort to be really bad.
@@Ebh55. it's not a bad thing but the real problem is the lack of diverse designs for each characters. Some characters look recolored too.
@@Ebh55.From character designs standpoint it's bad.
For example, even in winx club, where most of the characters wear only short skirts and tops and it's kind of a "style" of the show, there still are characters who wear pants, long skirts, shorts, sweathers, etc. It gives a variety in designs and helps to make them distinct and unique despite literally being the same copypasted model.
In camila's case.. it's kinda plain. Colored sweather+pants or skirt describes almost every characters in this show. It's plain and boring..
"Undyne decides that she can just un-die now..."
This is the most canonical thing i have heard up to this point.
Minus the piano, or drama.
I mean, I don't think I ever watched to that point but I'm pretty sure she can revive with help of alphys or in her undying stage?
@@danaa- Battle against a true hero starts with piano and it was pretty dramatic for her to save monster kid.
@@panpan3303 no, i was talkung about how glitchtale's undyne un-dying was a lot less dramatic than og undertale's.
@@Definitely_aperson alphys is dead because camila wanted undyne to be straight. Also because cam likes gaster more-
Sans: Has telekinesis.
Also Sans: Teleports IN FRONT of targets and tries to block hits with his 1 DF
Unless he pulled an Underverse and only got hit in the Bottle of Ketchup he had that is one STUPID idea
No hes using the blue heart mode to do that but if the object doesn't have a soul he cant use it

Underverse > Glitchtale fr
There is also dog of future past.
like darn, at least underverse isn't violently transphobic!
it makes me sad how many people in the comments are calling themselves stupid for liking glitchtale. 90% of you were, like, 7. and even if you weren't, _you're still allowed to like objectively bad things._ let yourselves have fun! that's what fiction is for!
SOMEONE FINALLY SAID IT
I still like glitchtale even after watching this video, I even read a fanfic once that centers around Alina, and I think it could have been a bit better looking back at it, but I think it's still good.
You’re allowed to like bad, just don’t pretend they’re good, be obnoxious when proven otherwise, and have complete bias towards it
Honestly I'm a person who likes Betty noire and was the only character I liked besides chara and frisk was borning I wanted frisk to full on be chara for a bit and not going full out at the start
Your right! Now I know how what to do and what not to do when it comes with forms of art, rather is writing or have full creative control.
Hey, lay off on Camila's background design, that's ME you're insulting. Camila hired me to give her access to all of the cities I built in Xbox 360 minecraft superflat worlds when I was 12.

plus she randomly is just like "hey maybe racism is bad" and decides to switch sides with zero buildup and zero prompting
LMAO
It's Camila's Undertale sona guys!!!
Moral nuance is challenging to write for, but like- if you can't think of a way to authentically make a character who's a bad person become a better person over the course of the story, then either keep them as a bad person or don't include them at all. It's honestly that simple and she couldn't even do that.@@jasperjazzie
If anyone wants a refresher, here’s how souls work in canon:
Red: does nothing, implied to have resurrective capabilities.
Light blue: also not incredibly useful, light blue attacks don’t hurt if you stay still.
Blue: gravity.
Green: can’t move, the only time we use a green soul is when Undyne gives us a spear to protect ourselves. Green attacks heal.
Purple: bound; can only move left or right, and switch roads.
Yellow: gun. Yellow attacks can be switched on or off by a yellow soul.
Orange: does nothing, orange attacks force you to move.
So purple attacks should be able to bind. Blue attacks could be magnetic. But apparently, they’re just blades, because I don’t know. Blue doesn’t even make sense; why is it a long sword? Why not something bouncy, since jumping is one of blue’s big things? And hey, since purple is perseverance, maybe it could create armor? Or some kind of mobile shield? Whyyy is pink fear? Why is fear evil? Perhaps it could have to do with cowardice and prejudice, but then why is Betty always fighting things herself? And what the hell is up with HATE? That’s not even a trait, everyone hates something, like how I hate this headache I’m giving myself.
Also apparently the skeletons who fight with bones and have exposed ribs and pelvises and are always showing their teeth have skin and mouths. PAPYRUS OPENS HIS TEETH LIKE LIPS, REVEALING MORE FUCKING TEETH. YOU CAN HAVE A CHARACTER EMOTE WITHOUT FACIAL FEATURES, I SWEAR. And let’s not talk about how often Camilla forgets the very principles of animation. Squash and stretch? Pose to pose? EXAGGERATION? WHAT ARE THOSE? No, animation is just moving characters a bit so that they slightly resemble living people, there’s no such thing as studying other works and reading what professionals have to say.
So i have the explanation for pink being fear
Its because its the "opposite of bravery" which would be fear. IIRC pink is maybe(?) on the opposite side of the color wheel to orange? I dont remember. And i am not looking it up. Im to lazy
To sum up. Uhhh
Forbidden spell makes soul "invert". The inverse or opposite of bravery or courage is fear or cowardice. As for why fear is evil. I dont know. But it made some cool fight scenes and i got some damn cool characters out of it. Fuck yeah
Honestly, we don’t even know what the red trait is, other than the fact that every red soul we’ve encountered is a being that is possessed by us, and the abilities it shows in Deltarune evoke freedom or control, or maybe even Hope. Honestly, people forget that determination is yellow.
@@jacksonvoet8312I think that red has to do something with resets and timelines. (based on undertale yellow, so of course not canon, but....)
Frisk at lv 1 was already able to take over the timeline from Flowey.
Clover couldnt do that till lv 20.
Frisk at lv 20 deleted the entire timeline (well Chara, but whatever)
@@jacksonvoet8312Also aint justice yellow?
As someone who was a kid-teenager during glitchtale's rein, I really want to dive into how camila treated her fanbase, specifically the younger fans.
It's literally like she hated them. When there were comments about when the next glitchtale was (yes it's annoying), instead of ignoring them, she made several videos pointing them out and "dunking" on them. And sending her older fans to attack these literal young children who were obviously around 8 or something. Imagine being a grown woman and laughing about bullying 8 year olds who are literally your fans.
And during live streams she would constantly call people stupid and clueless for fan theories (which were literally CORRECT) or talking about the "cringe" OCs people made and laughing at then or acting mad at how bad they were and again, sending her older audience to attack the younger.
Especially about the fan theories. She called them stupid and told them to "stop trying to make sans come back you're all stupid for not wanting a character to stay dead" and then she brought him back. Lol.
She then defended herself by saying she hated that people were getting it right and wanted to throw off suspicion or something like that. Which is insane, a normal person just wouldn't engage. But of course Camilla thinks its okay to attack children to cover her shitty writing.
She also made fun of kids on her glitchtale amino, their OCs and fanart. Her entire identity outside of animation and art was just bullying her younger fans and people laughing and harassing the children.
I wasn't harassed by anyone because i didn't post any art or comments, but it made me still feel insecure about being creative, art wise and fan theory wise, she just kept telling people to shut up instead of letting people think (probably because it was so predictable lmao).
EDIT: I think it's funny how you said she doesn't even know what a book looks like and that she can't read because my most specific memory from one of her streams is her and her fans insulting a child in the chat and then something prompted her to say "haha yeah lol I'd be surprised if half of you could even read"
Guess it takes one to know one
damn, i guess this is one of the "dont meet your heroes" thing.
Holy shit; some people do not deserve fanbases.
I’m genuinely surprised that she’s never thrown a hissy fit about Toby Fox “stealing” her ideas for Deltarune, given how she seems exactly like the kind of person to do that and Deltarune ironically seems to be exploring a lot of similar concepts and ideas as Glitchtale but executed far better and much more creative.
Maybe she’s too scared to go after him because she knows she’ll be torn to shreds by the entire fandom for it, but considering everything that’s gone down with Veir, it’s not like she can make herself even more of a laughingstock than she already is.
I saw on a video about a challenged kid, idk if that video is still up, but in the comments she literally made fun of that kid and I checked to see if that was the real Camila, and man, it was actually her.
Don't meet your heroes.
when I was younger, I once dmed fanart of betty to Camilla once (cannot remember what platform this was on) and her response wasnt blatantly mean, but it was basically just "...ok??" and I was SO sad LMAO
I feel like Betty should've kept up the manipulative schemer thing she had at the start, turning humanity against the monsters by amplifying their fear of them. Personally, not a fan of the giant pink blob
This would’ve been way more fun and cool. Maybe she could still have her killing or whatever, with her kind of killing off characters as the series goes on (especially with her little spear thing which makes it easier)
So like having mystery whilst still keeping suspense
@@animated_finn this is why the character is more popular than frisk and Chris and almost as much as chara
@@animated_finn great unique character just a bad writing b bad art c bad uses of her powers d chara vs Betty should of been the final fight not chara and asiera vs betty Noriega death animosity f she does mechaimed chara and asireal vs charas hate or Betty death move that kills her target
I always assumed the plot was more of just a framework to have undertale characters fight a marysue in anime battles
@@guyferrari8124 Probably was, still sucks such a cool idea was abandoned almost immediately

👇
Exactly this. Once I noticed this cycle, watching this animation became frustrating and exhausting. 😮💨
i hated how repetitive it got and genuinely got sick of the main antagonist and the insane power scaling she kept getting
and don't forget. 90% side profiles and bad anatomy. Who's going to tell Camila that it's ok to trace over animation of 3d models???
So it’s just worse Dragon Ball Z but in monster hide.
Last Breath be like:
1:09:08 admittedly, undyne DOES go through depression in undertale, during a neutral route, where you kill mettaton, alphys is implied to take their life, and undyne is depressed, and loses the will to do anything and sleeps on papyrus’s couch.
I don’t think camila knew that route when doing this depression arc, but I AM saying this has precedence.
Glitchtale has so many plotholes it gave me trypophobia.
That's so real
It will never not be funny to me that literally every single thing Camila made fun of her audience for wanting ended up actually happening in the show
Well one the one thing was chara vs Betty norie ecect they didn't technically kill eachother but Betty noire death wasn't her death her death move spawex that creature out of jojos bizarre adventure part 5 golden wind
Right? I remember when Sans first died and people were discussing how he might come back in the story later, Camila pretty triumphantly said how death is death and you can only move forward. Guess what happens.
@@luciusstohl4836she brings him back for a stupid fucking fight scene that he doesn't even win, then he DIES again, mitigating Papyrus' efforts to save him COMPLETELY. Yeah, Cami's a bitch for that, if you didn't want him to come back then don't fucking use him after he dies then, he shouldn't have even died in the first place, it was just done for stupid shock value.
@@luciusstohl4836tbf as soon as he’s brought back he’s almost immediately killed again which is fucking hilarious

This series is making fnaf lore more easy
Deadass 😭
At least we generally know the plot of Fnaf.
Purple man kills kids and stuffs their bodies into robot animals. Spirits of said kids come back and possess their robot coffins to kill Purple man. Purple man gets killed but still lives on as a zombiefied Trix the rabbit. Purple Trix the man rabbit survives getting burnt until he was lured into a restaurant along with other damaged robot furries owned by his oldest son who accidentally killed his little brother in a prank back in 1983 and who also "died" in an underground maintenance facility trying to save his little sister who was killed by a "kid-friendly" Joker robot. Undead man, with the help of Purple man's old friend, Old Sport (Henry), traps all the robots and burns everyone to a crisp, setting their souls free while Purple man gets tormented in his personal hell by one of his victims.
And this still is easier to understand than whatever lore Glitchtale has.

I have to say, I've never cared about the animation being lazy and low quality in Glitchtale. Because even as a kid, I was always aware that cartoons are usually made by huge teams of professional animators, so it was obvious to me, that we can't expect an animated series made by *one person* to be high quality, and also watching how the creator is making progres was actually super fun to observe. I believe thats why so many people was praising her for the animation, not because it looked this good, but because Camila was making progres and that enough. However I completely agree the storytelling was shit, and there is no excuse for that.
Yeah. Problem is she threw away that pass by claiming its the best thing ever
im guessing that the reason gaster was able to defeat bete was because he drank the determination vile but its not like camila bothered to explain that 💀
I believe he has the powers of all 7 soul traits but it's not like she bothered to explain that either 💀
I'm also quite sure she didn't give a -shit- about literally making the human souls useless because she wanted to make a -fucking- eggman OP it something

I like how a show named GLITCHtale is barely about glitches, and more about complex soul magic bullshit.
Edit: Key Word: barely.
This exactly. There is so much interesting stuff that could be done with glitches but it deviates completely from that idea. Could've called Glitchtale something dumb like Feartale or something if they wanted to relate to the topic.
@@erihtea0719 or WataHeckIsGoingUp?!-tale.
@@erihtea0719it's called glitchtale because the story couldn't of been possible without them, the story deviates from glitching when Frisk is erased because he's the reason why they're glitching.
After that its up to the characters themselves to iron out the opportunities they've gotten(gaster existing outside the void, monsters gaining physical bodies because of the upper world, and fighting for their rights in almost political setting) so they can lead happy lives.
Ofc Betty comes to destroy that and hate following her death but that's kinda the point; Betty in a nutshell is bug fix that's supposed to course correct the problem through the lense of the game. They make her a efficient bug parch(murder) by allowing her trait to directly change and manipulate the main power system which is emotion. Its also the reason why alphys died, she's not a monster or human, she's basically code. The black beast was a forced creation to justify her existence in a lore centric way
they should just call it confusiontale because that's definitely how i feel watching it
@@disorgan1zedchaos Wdym ? If you watch it through its mostly coherent,like i can count amount of too weird stuff with just my arms fingers
Skeleton wrickles could have been easily portrayed by making cracks in the skulls instead, it couldv been a creative wayu to remind of wrinckles while showing ageing and experience
For me personally, what made me lose interest in Glitchtale (albeit in a "damage-over-time" fashion, keep reading) was when Chara replaced Frisk, while Frisk was utterly ret-gone, leaving Chara's old shoes empty. Animosity wasn't out yet, so I had time to think after seeing the latest episode, and before the episode even released, I decided I was done with the series.
If you're going to have in-universe characters modify the past, you'd better be able to either A, explain the resulting time paradox so that what's left can be ignored, or B, show your audience the consequences of leaving such a massive time paradox unresolved. Glitchtale did neither before I lost interest.
I feel like they were about to acknowledge at least a bit of the issue through Sans waking up after Chara replaces Frisk. However, not only does he refuse to question it further after asking where "the kid" (Frisk) was, but then he's immediately killed off again before he can have any meaningful interaction with Chara to ask about it privately. If there was any missed potential that bugged me the most about Glitchtale, it was that unresolved/unexplained plot point/paradox
So many lore and plot points
It’s so strange. How is Chara alive in the present and simultaneously alive in the time of Asriel? For the locket? How does the plot work? I have an AU where the barrier glitches out and Frisk takes on the appearance of Chara… which changes everything since Flowey obviously recognizes Chara. The whole thing is absurd- if Chara didn’t exist millennia ago there would be no reason to kill the six collected as well.
That's where I fell off as well, to be honest. I never understood that decision personally
@@Nova-nr3giit’s called glitch tale for a reasonnn thts why frisk is able to give her soul to Ariel the timeline is glitched

It’s an honour to meet a legend
Undyne being insecure with her abilities is valid but seeing her turning into THAT was so weird. Undyne would 100% go rabid and train to be better after what happened. She's literally the one monster who persevered through death just to stop a tiny child in the geno route despite said child whooping her multiple times
In one of the neutral endings if you befriend Undyne and later kill Metaton, which will cause Alphys to "disappear" Undyne will be depressed and unable to do anything
@@Adul11100that's really sad to think about
@@Adul11100This is only if you befriend Undyne though, as she feels betrayed by the player. Betty is NOT undynes friend. If anything, she wouldve been the FIRST person out in the field.
Also one thing that irks me about glitchtale undyne is that
Canonically, Undyne is a lesbian, no? So tell me why as soon as Alphys dies, a random justice guy enters the picture. It's kinda weird how Cami was trying to set up a lesbian with a guy (and before you say she wasn't, literally look at all of their scenes together and tell me how its not obviously interpreted as one party falling for the other). Not to mention, this isn't a one time thing. She erased Frisk and Chara's identity of being non-binary, for what?? "So they dont get sexualised".
SO many things wrong with that statement. For one, it erases Frisk and Charas identities of being part of the LGBTQ+ community (being non binary) which is already off to a bad start, but she goes on about the sexualisation of children as if boys cannot be sexualised?
I'm just saying it doesnt feel like a coincidence when the "in your face" lgbt is at the wayside or just erased
Alphys and Undyne - Lesbians | Alphys dies and Undyne is set up with a guy
Alphys is only used twice, and thats to die and be undynes plot armour
Frisk and Chara - Nonbinary | Sudden retcon to having he/him pronouns
Frisk literally got replaced/ erased because Cami doesnt know how to write good character arcs, and Chara was relegated to "Asriels Brother"
Mettaton - Trans | (Surprisingly, she didnt erase anything about his identity which is like the only good thing she did)
Mettaton appears around 3 times in the series, once as a VERY minor cameo in early season 2, another in the battle against betty (which was admittedly very underwhelming) and lastly in the epilogue.
Sorry for the rant but it irks me how Cami clearly doesnt know how to write good characters AT ALL
@@animated_finn
Mettaton's trans?
@@SteveCrafts2kiirc at the very least he fits as an allegory for one. from what I remember it was that he used to be a ghost like the lil funky crying ghost guy, but he never felt right with ghost body or something? but then when he got mettaton'd ge didn't feel that way.
let's be honest, I think one of the main reason glitchtale was so popular is because of the cool fights. I watched all that was out back when I was a teen, and I couldn't remember anything about the plot
I love how genuine you sound at 1:13:36 but at the same time noooo don’t stab Grillby. (Also, fun fact: According to the sole comic on Toby’s fangamer account, Grillby moved from Hotland to Snowdin because he perfers the cold. Also, he canonically keeps a picture of a snowman two monsters made that looked like him hung up at Grillby’s because he loved the gesture since he always hated that he can’t touch snow or it’ll melt into water and extinguish him. He says, or more accurately Sans and that redish pinkish bird say in Grillby’s stead, that it’s his prized possession.)
Funny thing is that Betty was about to stab muffet
omg what thats so cute i had no idea that was a thing aww
"Wait, isn't Perseverance just Determination?"
Can't fault Camila for those two being considered separate SOUL traits. That one's a part of actual Undertale.
I wondered about those two souls as well.
In fact, I think Perseverance would be the 2nd strongest soul trait if Determination is the strongest soul trait.
@@DrawciaGleam02 I actually thought about this a bit. Determination "refuses" death, Perseverance "deters" it. Perseverance Souls will shatter, but the parts won't scatter, held together by the Soul's magic. It's stuck in a catatonic state, where one shift to one end or the other means life or death.
I usually see people distinguish the two traits by saying that Perserverance is adaptive, while Determination is more one-track minded, which I think makes the most sense.
Well, Determination is not a trait in canon anyways.
@@sheogorath6834
It _is_ a thing that's separate from Perseverance, it's just that there's no actual canon confirmation (unless you count genocide route save text, which could just be red to be ominous) that it's the red soul's trait, or what the red soul's trait is, so people tend to fit those bits of missing information together.
Betty is an awful villain. She's barely built up as a "twist" villain and proceeds to become such Sue-like character to the point where I genuinely didn't know if her "death" would actually stick.
Honestly out of every single thing Betty noire was a new character and it was just poor execution her actual character is great personality great abilities great powers being the antophis to charas void like hate so it's great unique character just the wrong writer
she genuinely feels like a character i wouldve come up with when i was eleven. yknow, like that type of character kids come up with that cant die no matter what and is actually an "angel demon hybrid werewolf vampire"
Did she die tho? I wanna know AND IM NOT WATCHING THE ENTIRETY OF GLITCHTALE FOR THE ANSWER

@@Olivertheolivevery definitely dead trust me bro
As an author, I really want to point out that Glitchtale’s worldbuilding actually DOES have the potential to be good. If you just take away anything that connects it to Undertale and instead use your own ‘controversial pariah’ characters in place of the monsters, you could make some really interesting, deep stories out of it. One thing I want to point out specifically: humans having a modernized or even futuristic magic-centric military to rival the magic of the monsters is an extremely cool concept. In fact, I was inspired by that specific part of Glitchtale while working out my own worldbuilding, and the result is consistently used in several of my works.
I’ve been following Glitchtale since the Newgrounds days, and though I will agree that its success is heavily dependent on the 2015-2017 Undertale fandom nostalgia, I honestly genuinely hope that they decide to go back and rewrite it or something (I mean, hell, maybe I’ll do it once I’ve finished my own thirty seven million book lineup in forty years). I can tell that a lot of passion went into this project, regardless of the quality, and I would genuinely like to see that same passion put into something more unique and understandable (regardless of the scandals - I am a firm believer of separating art from the artist’s controversies, unless there is a direct correlation).
Everyone starts somewhere in the realm of storytelling, and it usually isn’t very great (I still shudder thinking about my earliest story drafts from 6th grade), but you’re never going to get anywhere if you don’t go out of your way to try to get better. Glitchtale as it is should absolutely serve as an example to all up-and-coming authors of what not to do, but that doesn’t mean it can’t be improved. Keep writing, and always look for ways to improve!
I have to agree. With all the bad that came from Season 2, it's hard to notice some great concepts like the integration of magic to the human world and how it advances civilization. It would be cool to create a story based around a similar concept where magic is based around the traits of a person's "Soul".
Im always confused when people act like human magic users are something novel in Undertale when it literally says in the very beginning of the game that the humans sealed monsters undergroung using a magic spell.
Magic does canonically exist in the human world aswell.
Absolutely agree!
well something I want to mention is she IS trying to start a unique one without alot of "look undertale" by making entirely unique monsters.
I took lots of inspiration from the magic system! Turned it into an elemental system with strengths and weaknesses (not all-encompassing ones), gave the traits- ‘affinities’- powers similar to their meanings and the six humans’ powers in Undertale- magic became solely based on intent and on thought patterns… The Underground now contains ~750,000 monsters, in literal giant caverns and with religion and politics. And oh, human politics! Without Glitchtale, would I have gone for wix vs mundane politics? Culture? A high fantasy aesthetic mixed with sci-fi? Absolutely not! I sort of axed the specific weapons for each trait, which are irrational, and the losing trait thing was axed- eh, not my favorite. Inverted traits were nerfed considerably. Also, when characters use magic they go for shields because isn’t Glitchtale’s armor… well, bad? It’s not fully covering, is it? Plus, I think that spheres and arcs make for more stability, plus they make sure one doesn’t experience tripping on something… say, if someone makes the ground become covered in vines or ice.
Instead of this being an actual Undertale au, it feels like a Gaster fanfic. He is the character that was most focused on instead of Camilla's OC! We could've had a Betty redemption arc. But nah, Gaster is the character that's focused on 90% of the time. I'm not saying Glitchtale is bad, but the characters are. (Papyrus what has this woman done to your character!? 😭)
While watching the Betty section I just felt REALLY bad for her. Camilla created an OC, gave it a backstory all so Gaster can beat the crap of her. The creator herself clearly hates her creation. In the whole Sans, Gaster and Papyrus fight, Betty uses 3 attacks, and I think this was on purpose because Camilla wanted her OC to die that much. It really is a shame too, because I've always loved Betty.
No clue why camila had to ruin papyrus as a character. He was not THAT much of a goody two shoes in the actual game. He was just naive
@@stephaniejohnson5361 fr, it annoys the shit out of me when people treat papyrus like hes clueless. like he has the morality and understanding of a child. hes a bit naive, sure, but he isnt stupid and he can pick up on context clues. when hes trying to talk you down in genocide, if you choose to spare him, he will mention he was a bit afraid. that he was prepared to fight, if he had to. which is something ive seen very few people in the fandom even mention. he didnt die because he was so Good, he died because he was caught off guard. hes not a defenseless goody two shoes, he never was. hes strong, hes fair, and hes kind.

@@iaminsideyourwalls2021Same, no idea wtf is going on
also curious; a quick search didn't turn up anything more recent than two years ago, which she replied to
edit: unless OP is referring to Camila, in which case, godspeed
@@iaminsideyourwalls2021 It’s a LONG LONG story but lemme summarize as best as I can. So basically Camilla has beef with Hopeless Peaches because during an art collab there was a misunderstanding and Camilla sold the collab art without Peaches’ permission. Hopeless Peaches confronted Camilla about this (both publicly and privately), and they seemed to forgive each other in private at the time. But Camilla constantly used it against her, like when Peaches was being dogpiled on a couple years ago. Whenever Peaches got into drama, Camilla always brought it up as a negative against Hopeless Peaches. There are entire videos documenting this and the peaches drama connects to multiple other dramas so I recommend watching those for the full breakdown.
Edit: I did get the roles switched up at first, this is the correct version of events.
Hi, former glitchtale fan here
I actually got to ask Camila on her instagram story Q&A about her character designs to see if she had any old drafts, and her response was that she usually uses the first design she makes
That explains a LOT
Dude sometimes i use the first draft i have but at least keeping a theme/references/character from another media in mind 💀
Sounds like she really needs to hire someone to make the character designs for her 😭
That's why I started to redesign some of her ocs. I'm not sure if I'll be showing them on my channel though.
@@AlphaHaze tbh i want to see the redesigns. Rn im struggling to make one for Betty since my objective is to make something cute while also feeling that something is REALLY wrong
Her character design is all-around outrageous. Her oc's look like it was designed by a 12-year-old who uses Devianart. Heck, It's even an offense to those poor 12-year-old kids: they might be able to come up with something so much better.
Other people can come up with way better designs on their first drafts.
46:40
Speaking of his character design, I’m 90% sure that cape is there solely to be thrown to draw attention to the hand magic
44:23 Never in a million years would I have guessed that it was supposed to be a POLICE UNIFORM. I thought that it was a pajama
Yeah it doesn't even have a slight indication that this was a Police Uniform!
camila must’ve played undertale with her eyes closed because my GOD how does someone manage to mischaracterize this badly? i’ve seen fanfics on wattpad written by children too young to even be on the internet with free access who had a better grasp of their personalities than whatever camila had going on with the character arc she tried to make undyne go through
also !!PAPYRUS!! of all people not understanding kindness?? actual abysmal writing jfc
it's like when you get so wrapped up in making fan content you stop looking at the source material so all you have to go off of is vaguely remembering what happened, or at least thats what it feels like. all the stuff from undertale feels like a half remembered blur
@@seekerstheshy3842 while this is what most definitely happened, it’s still crazy to me that someone wouldn’t interact with the source material after awhile when the story you’re trying to tell still directly ties into it, but i guess this is what happens when you’re too focused on trying to bullshit your way through your story and making your oc (betty is more like camilas self insert tbh) OP

As a kid, I remember absolutely loving Betty as a character. I was a dumb angsty kid who was always into those “edgy” or “badass” characters, but looking back at it, she was WAYYY too OP. Like seriously. The series went from your average Undertale AU, to a mess of confusing story writing. Half the time as a kid, I didn’t even know what was going on. The human characters, Betty’s entire villain arc, and the whole angst shit between Frisk, Chara, Asriel, etc. All I can really remember was that Betty killed almost every character that crossed her path and was overall just too OP for my liking.
i agree, it's one of the reasons i hate the character so much, she could've been so good! instead they just. made her unlikable. it's like those overpowered sans aus. error 404 and king multiverse and such. it's just a five year old on the playground pulling crap outta their but to prove why " MY DUDE'S THE STRONGEST AND YOUR'S IS DOODOO!!!!" *angry pouty face* *stops away*
@@EJKMuffin EXACTLYYYY!! It just felt like she could pull random abilities out of her ass and it’d make sense to the plot. Also the whole AMD and the human character backstories were all total bullshit. I understood literally nothing because the plot was so chaotic that I lost focus and interest.
main reason why i couldnt get into it was because there was too much focus on the human ocs. i was a kid with very little standards at the time glitch tale was really popular but the only reason i ever tried to get into it was because it was an undertale fan work. i care about undertale and its characters, not some random ocs i know nothing about.
and its funny because it CAN be done well, although its rare. for example, recently released undertale yellow had really good, genuinely interesting ocs. but that story worked primarily because it was a prequel, focused on monsters and concepts that were already in the original game. so even though almost all the characters were entirely new, the game still felt like undertale.
well the whole point is that she is similar to the red soul in being a "only one at a time" thing. The red soul has the special properties of resetting or rewinding time. With a select few characters being able to remember those timelines that should've existed.
Her whole shtick was "I am literally just the fear of red souls and will do whatever I can to make sure they suffer and die." I mean with the manipulation, murder of friends and other nasties like almost causing asgore to get put on a t-shirt by toriel.
Imma e honest I genuinely didn't understand her abilities. I feel like it would've worked better if the rhabdopobia scene was just turning off all magic in the radius. If I was to fix issues it would be that it doesnt require souls to activate and instead requires "fear" which is why she would go after children, since they're easier to scare. It could've been awesome if she was a fearmongerer who was using manipulation tactics and phobia's to eliminate people. Such as causing alphys to take her own life by setting up some magic effect on her that would cause her alot of terrible things to happen. Look up suicide engineer if you wanna see what I mean, its basically a story of this girl being picked by some demon that causes her to have constant hallucinations at work, at home and etc etc that all make it impossible to live happily. She cant sleep, she gets harrassed constantly, all her friends leave her and more until she eventually takes her life. I couldn't describe it very well but look it up, its pretty good.
Same, I loved her because she was similar to one of my favorite Dragon Ball villains (Goku Black/Zamasu)
Also, about that part where she says if you dont read the wiki you will have no clue what is going on, thats also a problem for the other popular undertale animation, underverse. The difference is that underverse is confusing because of its nature of having a lot of aus. While glitchtale has no other aus besides itself, and is still confusing
At least Underverse has a linear and understandable plotline
@@nobody7204 yeah
yeah, the thing about underverse is its going based on the idea the viewer already knows who these characters are, which i think is alright as a form of fanfiction for people who are already familiar with aus and sticks pretty close to the characters original personalities and purposes. glitchtale just starts with the og undertale and kinda throws things at you lmao

Monsters are weak to malice. If you attack them with sadness or anger, they die more easily than if you attack them with apathy. If you attack them with genuine desire for them to die, they die more easily than if you attack them with sadness or anger.

One thing my friend and I frequently criticize Glitchtale for is how Fear is stated to be some bizarre counter to Determination, and how Bravery can't ever beat it. Like seriously, the freaking definition of Bravery is doing something that frightens you. As for it countering Determination, any old human/monster who KNEW about Frisk's insecurities could exploit them, not some half-written Soul Trait that barely even works to begin with.
thank you, determination's counter should be something like, apathy or something. because when you don't care about something enough to see it through, when you decide it isn't worth the effort? i feel like that's the opposite of determination.
determination is setting your mind to something and having the will to see it through to the end. but when you don't care enough to set your mind to anything? when you can't muster the will and resolve to see anything through because you don't care, when you CAN'T care? Apathy.
ALSO I’VE JUST NOTICED SOMETHING RECENTLY DURING THE FINALE EPISODE OF SEASON 1 OF GLITCHTALE BEFORE CHARA AND ASRIEL FIGHT.
Chara: “If you ever think of reseting, the timeline will get more corrupted and erase itself.”
Also Chara: **creates the ERASE button to ERASE THE WHOLE TIMELINE**
You could literally classify all of Jessica's crimes against Sans (aggravated assault with a deadly weapon x2, accessory to murder) to be hate crimes because the reason Jessica wanted to kill Sans was because he was a monster.

As a kid, I kinda was blind to bad writing, bad plot, bad animation because I had no standards. But the thing you said about Betty is way too true, she is supposed to represent fear and use it against who she faces, but every time she supposedly uses this trait to manipulate and defeat her opponents, it's not fear she makes them feel but something closer to guilt or grief. Even a child like me could see this massive inconsistency.

2. It’s not even really a curb the concrete slabs of the sidewalk are just super thick essentially
3. The corner in the top right is like, angled downwards it seems
4. The road line markings are just crazy, it implies that this is three different one way lanes since the markings don’t allow merging or turning in anyway.
5. No matter what orientation you make the one way roads, the car driving towards Betty has to have broken the law in some way, because either they came from the right going the wrong way and are now going the correct way on the one way or vice versa, but regardless they can’t turn that way because the fucking lines don’t allow it
Roads can be uneven though, this is caused by the pressure cars put on roads, how water interacts with the roads and the ground below it, earthquakes (both large ones and those too small for a human to feel), and more
@@doomclasher9287 This is true, and while that might explain the issue with the angled section in the top right, the idea that random erosion and other natural factors caused the two sides to evenly differ for the entire length of the road is extremely unlikely. If it was like, parts of the sidewalk were higher or raised and lowered like a wave I’d believe it to be more likely.
Also no way the artist thought about natural factors changing sidewalk height and then forgot how road markings work completely
Glitchtale isn’t objectively bad, it just went off the undertale aspect and became a self written story with some undertale characters that more or less got written off with a ending that makes Disney look like a well written story

@@adishovskiy Literally same, I’m still gonna make my own series in the form of a fanfic someday. But regarding the topic of this video and etc, it makes me feel ashamed to see that most of the plot elements of the story of GlitchTale is not only flawed inherently, but just unoriginal and plagiarised ideas…
Honestly, I think Glitchtale would've worked better as a chill, slice of life type of show with the earlier style. I dunno, the chibi designs of the characters back then were kinda adorable, so it clashed with when stuff got dark or gorey.
If the series was a comedy that focused more on the characters themselves and their dynamics with each other, rather than an action packed series that constantly needed to up the stakes and kill off characters, it probably wouldn't have been so meh after the start of season 2. After that point, it felt like Glitchtale constantly tripped over itself whenever it tried to bring in more character drama and fight scenes after each Episode.
So basically RWBY Chibi
I'd like to add some additional notes to the character design section because I honestly feel like they weren't ragged on enough. Pretty much all the characters have the exact same silhouette, body structure, and anatomy, including the main cast from Undertale! A good example of this anatomy assassination in action is Alphys and Papyrus. In the original game, Alphys is depicted as having a slight slouch and triangular head, giving a very reptilian appearance. Papyrus, meanwhile, has very skinny limbs and a small torso (covered by his battle body,) there's a little of circles, lines, and curves with Papyrus with little to no corners, which fits for character. Yet in glitchtale, all this is completely thrown out the window in favor of more humanoid anatomy, and it looks so wrong. Gaster might just have the worst redesign out of all of them. He looks more like a pale human than a skeleton! And before any of you say in the replies, "Oh, it's just an art style choice,” it's for the best to keep the characters' anatomy consistent if you're trying to be accurate to the source material! Which Glitchtale tried to do in absolute failure. Pair this with all of the other mistakes and flaws in Camilla artstyle, and now those statements aren't even an argument anymore. Don't even get me started on the inconsistencies with the base game lore, like the fact that determination isn't even a specific soul trait! But this comment is long enough, and you already go into many more reasons why this series is garbage.
So basically it's a bad fanfic?
The fact that Camilla’s backgrounds ad perspective are so broken despite her history of tracing is wild to me. Like, tracing photos of real life objects is a very valid method of practice and study.
Wait, seriously? Man, I gotta try that. Any videos you can recommend that talk about this subject in detail?
yea i guess it works for some time but then u gotta start getting other techniques
she was too lazy to trace for backgrounds
tracing still requires a modicum of effort and time, just a lot less time, research, trial and error.
besides, she didn't trace real life objects. she traced other work. there's a difference.
@@Knux5577 yeah i get that. It’s just ironic that she had a proper way of learning right there and chose to misuse it.
@@crumpscrumbs tracing is a really good learning tool, but one that should be used sparingly. imo, it's okay if you trace real things/body parts while drawing if it helps you get better at drawing that thing. the problem comes when you trace art that isn't yours yet claim that you drew it or even worse, monetize it. tracing helped me draw some things like shoes and similar, so I would recommend.
Long story short: She had success in creating a fanfiction with no OC's, that MOSTLY stuck to the series lore, and gave an ending that literally everybody wanted anyway.(S1 Glitchtale) When she got the confidence boost from s1 success, she though of branching out, doing something new, but it turned out she SUCKED at original ideas.
Ah. A classic Butch Hartman move.
Becauuuseee when you specialise in fight scenes you maybe should either stick to the fight scenes, or if you want to try to add original writting into it so bad, you shouldn't bite more than you can fit in your homgry mouth, make a story that is clearly too complicated and grand for you to handle, and actually try not telling people how original and cool you are...

Season 2 is what took it from a random flash animation to a true passion project people bought merchandise from imo.
28:17 has anyone noticed that the toxic gossip train just started playing here
Also, you will not believe how excited I got when I heard any name of any character, I vaguely recognize I blinked and all of a sudden half of the cast was dead, and was replaced with people who I don’t even know what’s happening

character design to rival genshin impact npcs
wow the lore is more incomprehensible then FNAF or The Evillious Chronicles. that’s kind of impressive in an awful way
as a fan of both, i'm feeling more sane than ever lmao
Welcome to Kingdom Hearts
same @@tigercat1080
FNaF at least tries to make the lore work, but Glitchtale, simply doesn't
I feel like Evillious actually makes the weird lore work pretty well, ngl. Each song feels like unearthing a story lost to time, or something like that.
Here’s an idea: I really feel like Camila could’ve THRIVED if she just animated fights. Undyne vs Gaster, Sans vs Papyrus, Asgore vs Toriel, whatever she wanted. No need for plot, or detailed backgrounds. Just epic fights in the void. I feel like that would suit her better.
Undyne vs Gaster would be HYPE
Honestly all of the fights in Glitchtale are hype ngl
Ironically, this same issue is huge in modern film-making, talented directors trying to at the same time be a solo writers and shit themselves tremendously.
isn't that litterally season 1
but it's mostly 3v1 fights
So basically like RWBY should have been?
The comments section here is a fucking hellscape.
I even clicked on one of the profiles with absolute dogshit takes and quickly found out that most of them were children trying to rage bait. Honestly, it was more funny than anything, and seeing them give up on having a proper argument (not that they were valid in the first place) and reveal their true intentions was GOLDEN.
You gotta love the internet sometimes, lmao.
But uhh, to be on topic-
I've watched Glitchtale when I was a kid and thought it was pretty cool.
And rewatching it after all these years...
It's hot garbage, lol. Just a shit fan-fiction given a small budget with an even shittier person making it.
This, of course, doesn't mean you can't like it. After all, art is subjective, and people can like whatever they want. They can even separate the art from the artist. I just wish they wouldn't excuse the creator's actions because they like their works.
Something that bothers me a lot about Camila is her obsession with her obvious Chara recolor named Betty. Like dude, are you going to tell me that your 100% original character is that powerful? why? Undertale already has an established canon, you can't come and put your ideas out of nowhere just to give it a reason why your original character is more powerful than the characters already present.
It still bugged me to this day that Undyne's police "uniform" looks more like pajamas
In fact, almost everyone in the second season all look like they have nothing in their wardrobes but pajamas, you'd expect the fact that Mettaton still being famous after Asgore's arrest would imply a trend wave of fashion
Edit: Also, I just wanna say this, but the decision to render actual voice acting to an absolute minimum seems redundant, especially with an exposition heavy show like Season 2
Like, I can't help but be put off at the characters ah- ing and oh- ing and occasionally calling other people's names like I'm watchinga bunch of Minecraft villagers(which would explain the choice of clothing)
She even showed how each character would sound with full sentences, and it was the best cast of characters yet, and a very good cast of VAs an animated series of this calibre can have yet, atleast for me
Until I watched this video I genuienly thought it was just her home clothes I had no idea it was meant to be a police uniform
@@ilhandaanish2381 IKR, and another thing, the whole Dreemur family, mostly Asriel and Asgore, all look off, their hair being more like toupee than anything, and Papyrus in his shirt isn't good at all, heck not even his battle body is drawn right. The final battle between the bones and Betty I barely managed to sit through, as well as most of the fights in season two besides Undyne vs Betty(the first one)
I did think it was pajamas, to be honest. When she said that it was a police uniform, I was thinking "what?" and had to take a minute.
Even back when I blindly praised Glitchtale I can't help but think Undyne looks so ugly in those clothes. Also, wasn't Deltarune Chapter 1 released at that time when Glitchtale is still in progress? Even Undyne there looks like an actual police officer despite being made up of pixels WAY FEWER than Cami's drawing. She should at least take inspiration from that or better yet, just simply search up "police uniform" on Google! 🤦♀️💀
@@ItsChevnotJeff Undyne's design could be anything but not a police uniform.
Season 2 would've been better if there was no mary sue and we *just* focused on the conflict between humans and monsters living on the surface.
Edit: Holy magikarp over halfway to 1k likes. That's some insanity.
Seriously if i had the willpower and motivation i'd just fuckin rewrite the story myself.
@@crossoverworlds2678well seeing you are saying you'll rewrite the story something tells me you don't know how to for if you did you'd of made your own story without planing to steal others

Not to mention that if you look to the right of the door after the walls change from red to white, the other side of the room is still red. They made the walls of a fucking room inconsistent, and they're not even good at that either.
34:35 Holy shit, the fact that I took a COMPLETE shot in the dark here by saying "It's Gaster's house" despite the very first clue pointing to it being Asgore's and then it ACTUALLY ended up being Gaster's house is absolutely fcking wild to me, you know that your story and writing is shallow af when I, as a person who has basically 0 prior knowledge of this series is able to guess a random character's house after an approximate 15 minute synopsis 😭
Glitchtale had been my hyperfixation for almost 5 years. 5 YEARS, and I’m still learning new things about how convoluted this series lore is. Jesus Christ.
Welcome to the life of a Warhammer fan.
Elder Scrolls fans: "First time?"
bro the lore ain't that complicated
God bless your soul
Looks like I'll have to go back to her Team Nemesis Lore of sorts.
like how you can tell at exactly what point in the series Camila watched the video explaining why Chara isn't the villain of Undertale
That video actually came out after the finale of Glitchtale though I’m sure Camila was inspired by the community discussion at the time.
@@StreamlineWorkshop oh :(
Chara apologists are delusional and cherry pick their evidence or make it up.

"If you don't know how to do a ___ thing, you don't do it" WRONG

YES
This genuinely made me head hurt as I was absentmindedly watching this while playing Genshin. This has never happened to me before, and I think that says a lot about the series
You know, looking back, the art for this series was WAY worse than I remember, all it had going for it was that beginning sans fight, and even then, it was leaning hard into every stereotype invented by the fandom. (Frisk being a little baby that needs sans to help them despite being fully capable of wiping out the underground, chara possessing them to do flips and shit to avoid attacks, sans remembering resets instead of just being really good at reading faces)
Eh, I always liked the Sans remembers resets concept. Fun idea to play around with.
@@DrawciaGleam02Middle ground: he remembers them unconsciously or in dreams/nightmares
@@DrawciaGleam02 he cant remember them, but is acutely aware of when they happen
@@penntopaper9305 pap can though, considering he knows when sans is pranking you across space and time.
Legit not one mf got a SPRINKLE of shading 😭
I may not be an artist but i think a better way of showing an old skeleton would be their bones having a tinge of yellow. Mainly because bones when exposed to air (if I'm not mistaken) grow yellow over time.
nah its adding b o n e w r i n k l e s thats obviously the best way.
Wait that's a real thing?
@@fangirl3323 Yep! You know how teeth go yellow? Same can happen to bones.
These could also coincide with the wrinkles being replaced with cracks.
god imagine gaster, sans and papyrus constantly having to treat themselves so that they don't look yellow as hell lmao that'd be so funny
26:33 HELP THAT WAS MY IMMEDIATE THOUGHT TOO
I'm so tempted to draw them (because CMON a widowed father finding love again is such a juicy plot), but redesign them some first bc... I don't wanna make Camila straight up fanart 🤢
"Gaster is a tough I-don't-feel-no-feelings sigma male" has gotta be the FUNNIEST thing I've heard in a video from you
12 minutes in, and I'm surprised you haven't talked about how Frisk manages to now speak complete, full sentences instead of "You tell Jessica..." and "You tell Sans..."
I mean, if Chara narrator theory is true in Glitchtale, then it makes some sense that it no longer describes in the second person.
am gonna find you
I really think (one of the many) fundamental problem(s) is as follows:
Undertale is a story that really *only* works as a video game. When you take characters like Flowey and Sans (let alone Chara), who were *heavily* tied to the game’s meta-commentary and put them into a combat-centered animation series, they just don’t work.
Let’s just focus on Flowey: in the game, Flowey was, in large part, a commentary on the nature of being a “player” in a video game, and how experiencing that game over and over eventually leads to a near-total loss of investment.
Placed in another medium, he’s… a sadistic, time-traveling flower whose primary contribution to the story is being a convenient visual metaphor.
I hope my point is clear. This was a bad premise for a story from the very beginning.
How to fix this: constant allusions to "someone watching", and how everything that's happening is because "someone" finds it entertaining. Wrap it back around to the "Player" and turn them into "Watcher", who's ravenous thirst for action is fueling the terrible occurrences within the universe, with the only people able to see the Watcher being Sans, Flowey, Chara, and possibly Betty because her actions are influenced by the Watcher's own emotions.
@@KaihighOG and the best part, taking consideration that it all started by people asking for the animations to have a continuation, it would fit perfectly with glitchtale if it had that included
I mean, underverse takes that concept and adapts it to a series really well. Instead of being a game about being a game, its a show about making/manipulating alternative universes, just like the ones the fandom did. It takes the meta concept of the game and adapts it to the whole fandom that formed around it, which is pretty genius imo.
@@rodrigonogueira9375 Yes, I would agree. Underverse also made a good decision in having a new main antagonist who was highly relevant to its new themes.
So yeah, it’s not impossible to do well, but it is extremely difficult. You will notice, after all, that the main characters of Underverse are either original to the story (X-Tale), or otherwise separate from the original game (Ink & Error).
As a writer myself, I never want to believe a premise is inherently flawed, as I'd like to believe any story could work given the right care.
Then again... that kind of implies Undertale could only work as a video game, since in that context "video game" could be seen as the "right care".
Wow... I have to think about this a little...
i remember she made a video responding to comments saying she had to revive sans and said that it was her series and she wasn't going to let fans control it, some time later sans was revived in a bullshit way and when she was called out for it she responded by saying she did it because the fans were asking so much. I just found that really funny as a kid
The ranting is absolutely grating but you are right about the story it’s a mess
Might just be I’m too old to care about it anymore
My biggest pet peeve with Glitchtale has always been the side profiles. Holy shit, why are they so incredibly ugly, some frames of the show look incredible until a character looks to the side and suddenly have the ugliest face-
I'm just puzzled, obviously she is a good and experienced artist, how can she not be able to draw okay looking side profiles-
Thank god I'm not the only one who notices this 😭
Most of the characters (execpt for Toriel, Asgore, Asriel, and Alphys) look like they have awkwardly long snouts with some of them barely having a gap between the nose and the mouth. It just looks so goddamn weird 💀
> obviously she is a good and experienced artist, how can she not be able to draw okay looking side profiles
She's not lol, she has no concept of anatomy, no grasp of color theory, lighting or composition, the only thing she can do is copy what she saw in anime poorly. She's basically stucked in that phase where every artists draw anime because it's cool, but it's even worse with Camila since Glitchtale is so popular I don't think she feel the need to improve on anything. She may be good in animating but she's lacking a lot in.. everything else. I used to remember quite fondly of the series, art and story wise, but now looking back I can't even understand how my dumb child brain could even look up to this
Jesus crhist you are a horrible person ripping into her. it's just not her forte, God you people are cruel.
@@ding0dkikl_ bro calm down you're literally in a comment section of a video ranting about glitchtale. Of course people are gonna criticize the flaws in the show so why not read something else? And isn't Camila Cuevas also a terrible person??? She was only upset that her boyfriend cheated on her (which is understandable) but was very ignorant about the fact that he cheated on her with MINORS.
@@AlphaHaze what it got to do with her art though. you people are ripping into her art lime nothing, she's not a Saint or a professional. the "criticism" is legit just art bad which is the worst and it only justifies bullying her. if you can't separate the art from the artist don't watch at all
Betty is an awful character, but one thing I can give Camila credit for is some of her visceral expressions. They’re absolutely incredible, and if only that energy was directed toward a better written series
If you listen closely you can understand she does not like glitchtale
It’s weirdly funny to me that I was in the Undertale fandom for a very long time, yet I never encountered any AUs until years after I had left the fandom, and by that point those AUs were either dead or dying. Feel like I dodged a bullet.
I did, unfortunately, end up in the FNAF community and down the rabbit hole that is FNAF AUs….
I really loved Glitchtale as a kid. Doesn’t hold up as much looking back on it but it still holds a special place with me. I will say one thing that always pissed me off was how Camilla killed off Sans, spent all this time trying to revive him, only to kill him again completely pointlessly.
Exacly
yeah. its the only show that didnt have plot armor. It was realistic but painful how many characters died in that series.
As much as I dislike unnecessary plot armor, bringing back Sans just to kill him off immediately was not executed well plotwise. Well, as much as Glitchtale's plot went
@@freecom1917
What is wrong with you lmao
@@freecom1917 my guy I don't think it's good to write spoilers for the manga in a place like this as it may spoil people that are anime-only or are looking to get into the series. I think that deleting the comment would be neat as you keep in mind all of these people that don't know yet. Cheers
Holy heck I've been playing with the idea of making a video taking apart glitchtale at some point in the future, but I came to the conclusion that I was too scared of being hunted for sport as it seemed to be very beloved and I had never seen criticism of it before.
I salute you for your boldness

@@StreamlineWorkshop Great video and glad to see you're back. You know, You would think with all the connections she had in the stickman community which are full with some pretty amazing animators she would have asked some of them to help her with character designs and backgrounds. I was honestly gonna watch the series eventually because I kept saying people talk about how cool the fights were and thanking the story was going to be good too, But the story is this plot holy are the fights even worth watching and your opinion? Anyway like I said cool video and glad you're back and if you want to find out another interesting web series to watch myself as you take out indie cross if you like indie games and at least pretty good animation imo check it out Have a nice day
