This man actually bailed out of a moving race car to bash a scorpion to death with his helmet, even after it fell off his body. Merciless.
He only stops to take life not save it.
I mean it was a poisonous one.
@@dragonandavatarfan8865 you mean venomous
Either that, or he was that afraid of it.
Those stings hurt though. Feels like you are being stabbed and the pain lasts for hours. Also paralyzes the part where you got stung.
"His sister will die if you don't let him win!"
Speed: *speeds up*
Speed clearly uses Highlander logic.
Here he comes, here comes Speed Racer,
He´s a demon on wheels!
The demon on wheels part is now terrifyingly accurate.
His name is Speed Racer and not Slow Racer
@@Midnight-Starfish You're goddamn right it is.
His name is speed..not slow
1:10 Trixie, this is your subconsciousness trying to warn you, just stay away from Speed.
There is no escaping speed racer
1:15 you got that the demonic design is actually pretty cool looking.
No-one can deny that that nightmare sequence was legitimately pretty chilling. Or maybe I'm just a sook?
@@mysterylovescompany2657 No, it was. I can imagine it giving me nightmares if I had seen this as a kid
He’s a demon on wheels.
He’s a demon on feet too.
I'm always disturbed by how absolutely genuine those death screams sound in this show.
Everything's authentic
Fun fact: they actually had people remake the death scene and thoses are there final moments before the mic cuts
Everything is an act until someone dies.
0:38 was the funniest thing ive ever seen, cus he's trying to dramatize the scene and ends up crashing hahaha, and his scream too hahaha
@@erickmanueldeazeredoborges2059 That was the most horrifying one for me. The context of this is the water is boiling acidic water from a volcano, and it was already established it wouldn't be an instantaneous death but an extremely painful one. So that was him realizing in a split second, the horror of what was about to happen to every inch of his body. But you sociopaths think differently than we humans do.
0:44 "Please don't smash into us"
Speed: "ŒÆƏÖŲĞĤ
ÁŮĞĦĦĦĦĦĦ
*Spins out of track*
I don't know if that was even an edit, but he is LITERALLY babbling like a maniac when he steers off like that.
My favorite thing about it, is that people on the internet makes the Speed Racer(character) look like a psychopath who's killing everyone.
But like, he is
Trixie:SPEED PLEASE SLOW DOWN AND LOSE THE RACE SO THAT LITTLE GIRL CAN SURVIVE
speed: *gotta go fast*
Well if the shoe fits .....my nigga speed got some real problem s
Nothing wrong with that honestly
He is tho!
"This no time to act like a girl, Trixie...."
"Ok.👌"
Ok.👌(◐‿◑)
Ok may be later :v
Based
Of course Trixie was a nazi.
@@billthegenericguy I hope you're ironic
Speed: the helicopters too fast
Racer X: I have an idea
* gets out of 90mph car and begins to run faster than car and helicopter *
5:54
No one's faster than racer x. Not Even speed
Also his idea was to bail the fuck out car and let speed get caught
Damn why didn't I think of that?
😂😂😂😂
Oh no.
"Papa!"
*"MY DAUGHTER!"*
Jesus Christ no mercy for that scorpion
Ikr! That scorpion just wanted an autograph 😵
Speed knows no mercy, he only wants to win the race.
In that scene, there was a cold-blooded animal built to kill… and there was a scorpion
@@Abdega I see what you did there: you confounded my expectations with a bait and switch.
That's an odd prayer
6:13 nothing in the world could have prepared me for that cut.
0:37 That scream of absolute terror is just amazing
*BAAAAH!!!*
To paraphrase someone else:
“It sounded like someone came up and stabbed the VA to get the most authentic scream”
Freaked me out, not ashamed to say.
@@afistfuloflambsauce2641 sounded more like a DAAAAH to me, lol. He was calling for his father not to die 💀
3:41 is the greatest scene in animation history and you can’t tell me otherwise.
"PAPA!"
"MY DAUGHTER!"
*zooms in an akward and weird way*
Truly a heartwarming reunion scene😁
@@kawanxros and it all happened in like what, 1 seconds?
@@ballistamangrit4671 and this makes it funnier
My response:
4:51
1:33 **Sees scorpion on shoulder**
"Augh! Ah! Hah!"
**Throws self from speeding vehicle and smashes scorpion with helmet**
Flawless logic.
He only stops to take life, not save it
Wait, what happened to his car when he jumped out?
@@MrMegaSuperDuperMe the car flew away my child, it has became speed
A car that, as the name suggests, can go to mach 5 speed
@@plaguedoctorjamespainshe6009 a car to surpass Shooting Star
*"Do you think I'm afraid? Is that what you think about me?"*
😂🤣that part gets me every time!
Breaking Bad vibes
"I'M THE ONE WHO WINS"
Speed doesn’t fear Death… Death fears Speed.
“If you don’t cut it out, I’m not scared!”
X: I’m gonna try something
*Does nothing
X: oh no!
Bender: Do a flip!
More like runs away
He did try something. He jumped out of a speeding car and succeeded
I lost my shit laughing at that one. Had to pause the video
He made an executive decision
4:22 Gotta respect Speed for continuing the fight even after he shit himself.
This should be at the top
I’m trying SO hard not to wake up my household at 1AM; I’m crying 😂
The fact that there were just a couple of hatchet throwing mariachi players that wanted their pineapple in the middle of a forest is pretty great
Made even funnier by the fact he actually reacts in an appropriate and relatable way to axes being thrown at him. 😂
0:42
"What's speed doing?!"
Speed: *looks at next victim with extreme prejudice*
Random racer: Pls don't smash into us....
Utmost prejudice 😂
5:45 my man just casually jumps off a speeding car and outrun a jet
Also the jet just causally takes the car and Speed Racer (I think that’s who else is in the car) without even screaming for help, dude really wants to betray him like that- 💀
The reason why the dub is so weird is because the translator had about two days to write all the dialogue for each episode. The dubbing actors had just about as much time to dub it too.
And I wouldn't want it any other way
@@Cat-ih2ke it’s perfect
They probably just did 1-2 takes and the dubbing supervisor was like "ok, that's good enough 😂🤣
Madman Peter Fernandez translated, wrote, edited, directed and starred in the thing. There was only three voice actors, including him. Dude was doing 20 jobs at once in a 2 day schedule. It’s a miracle it turned out as well as it did
I'm glad they did
Pretty sure the Speed that Trixie saw in her fever dream was his true form
"Papa"
"MAHDAUGHTER"
*hugs*
Lmao
Oh papa
@@Justin-yt7pi i love Nui Harime!

*punch each other in the face repeatedly*
I'm sorry I didn't know you were the protagonist.
that's fine

I also love how many piles of barrels there were for them to crash into in that scene
Dudes rock
I wish I was a protagonist in real life
@@nickmagrick7702 you are the protagonist in my life
Did y'all notice how the other guy's hair turned yellow a split second before the lights went on?
The people who made this had never interacted with anyone else in their life before

@@sidolanters1394 sounds about right
I dunno if the Eng Dubs of Tezuka animes like Astro Boy ever had this kind of cheesiness.
The video or the show?
@@sidolanters1394 This is the americans fault though, they are the ones who dubbed it like this
4:12 I love how Speed don't mind becoming friends after beating the shit out of each other.
Goku trying to make friends with every enemy he fights.
@@ross4fun966 i mean literally most of his friends tried to kill him. Yamcha, Tien, Piccolo, Vegeta, 17&18, Buu. Its crazy when you think about it
@@propanesalesman660 Don't forget Bulma.
@@deagogl2843 Bulma met him when he was like 5....Goku looks at her like a mother and Bulma at Goku like a younger brother , he is about as likely to hurt her as he would flying nimbus
@@mrsmith570 Yeah but the point was that everyone tried to kill him, her first reaction to seeing him was to empty her pistol at him.
5:30 Racer X just casually jumping out of the car made my day
i just noticed this shit. lmfao.
lol its like fake suicide
He basically just abandoned speed 😂😂 he said sumbody gotta live to tell the story
Casually jumping a speeding car and then outrunning a jet..how fast and durable is that man
And then they just scoop up the car like it's nothing
"OHHHH NOO"
Yeah it’s weird... but that’s why it’s so good 😊
Also: PAPA-MYDAUGHTER 😂
😂😂😂
That's how parents and children normally greet each other though
3:39 is the most emotional thing I’ve ever seen. I was in tears the entire time.
Man, if only my dad greeted me like that when he enters the room…
MY DAUGHTER
Papa🥺😨
All, the whole one second of it.
no wonder people thought this was American. With the show’s animation, it blends in perfectly with Hanna-Barbera and the other cartoons with limited animation. Sometimes I forget it’s even Japanese. Anime has come a long way.
Yup
It’s not American? I never paid attention to the credits. And i also grew up watching it in spanish, so this is not quite how I remember it lol
Early Japanese animator, mangaka like tezuka inspired by disney and western animation so it's make sense. This anime was made in that era
@@spankwish To be fair there was actually an American series.
It also shows pure American mentality of being blinded by materialistic gains .
"I'm gonna try something"
*Just fucking runs away*
That M on his helmet stands for Merciless
Also Ninja Axe-throwing Mariachi
He only wanted the pineapple in speeds car
5:50--What an unfortunate development...for the people on that copter!
HE'S GOING OVER THE CLIFF
AAAAAAHHH
*demon noises*
NO U
**The producers probably threatened the voice actor with a gun to get that scream**
0:37
“Papa”
*_AGGRESSIVE ZOOM IN_*
“My daughter”
I grew up watching Speed Racer as a kid. I didn’t realize how strange some of the episodes (e.g. racers casually dying, the antics of Spritle and Chim Chim, people jumping out of cars going 90mph) were at the time, but now I think the weird dialogue and action scenes are what make it endearing. But I understand why so many people think it’s bonkers 😂
You did? As someone who's only seen the memes, I'm curious to know if he really steps on the gas after Trixie's midrace pitch or if it's just a good edit
@h31212 Oh, he did. But the context of the episode is more complicated than that.
This is EP 42: The Desperate Race.
The brother (racer) has been a dick to Speed, this was what made Speed ignore any "excuses" even though he did offered to help alot previously.
Long story short Trixie sabotaged the ending by stealing the pineapple in Speed's car (Required as a token to be kept at all times in order to qualify) and told ChimChim to hide it somewhere else. Of course the brother won and managed to earn the cash to save the girl however he still did not like Speed.
Put it this way: if someone new joins the league and you offer him your help even though it is out if your way yet that person refuses it rudely, I won't lie I wouldn't give two fucks about his personal problems if it surfaces. Serves him right.
Source: some guy in the comments.
@@dardanik Aaaaah I see! Thx
Haha yeah Spritle and Chim Chim... this show was funny af and quite clever at times, like that Wacky Races. To make a cartoon about racing interesting... it's gonna need weird shit.
my enjoyment of speed racer is definitely because it's, in fact, fucking bonkers.
Trixie: Please let them win, she is ill, they need the money
Speed: Starts going with the speed of light to win even more
"I'll make sure she dies twice."
Papa-
*MY DAUGHTER*
That zoom really got me XD
3:41
I read this as it showed up in the video lmfao
1:48 The original "i am the one who knocks" scene
4:57 - When the acid kicks in...
Let's not forget 1:09
🤣🤣🤣
0:45 It was at this moment that I realized Speed is actually the main villian and not the hero.
4:51 that's not a word. You're just making sounds.
4:22 Speed walking like that cake got its own gravitational pull
That or the "just shit his pants" walk.
I just want one slice of it. Looks so good.
I cant with yall 😂
Racer X "I have an idea to stop them"
Runs the fuck away
Speed gets captured
Racer X *surprosed Pikachu face*
Racer X: “I have an idea”, he runs away. Great idea! Was there ever a part two to this idea?
4:41 see Speed actually respects you when you can fight your own battles
He didnt respected that little girl cause she couldn't even fight her ilness
Speed: survival of the fittest bitch
3:11 I love how theyre laughing maniacally.
"Muahahaha! I now have enough money to save my sister's life! MUAHAHAHA!!"
I love Trixie's scream when she sees the prince 🤣
That's one Goofy & Homely Looking Prince.
No wonder Trixie was Freaked out .
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
@@davidwesley2525 I don't know if it's that he's homely so much as he kind of looks like a 12-year-old girl. 😆

Speed: *”Sociopath sounds”*
“AHHHHHHHH”
My favorite part
Speed racer: aggressively spins wheel while saying "NGHEHEJE!!"
*HUUHDEDEDEDEH*
(Flails wildly with steering wheel)
If you're not jumping out of a car at full speed after seeing a scorpion on you're shoulder then you're doing it wrong
Remember Stop, Drop and Roll? It's like that
I guess without the stopping part.... but I mean, you'll get to that eventually so I guess don't worry about it yet
"please dont smash into us!"
"rhGHghbrHG"
_crash_
Anime and manga adopted the concept of large, expressive eyes from classic Disney animations featuring animals, as creators felt the eyes were a good way for characters to express their emotions.
Yet when I look at these characters, I'm unsettled by the intense emptiness in their eyes. There's nothing there. o.o
Speed is a sociopath so, of course they’re empty. Trixie, on the other hand, I’m convinced she’s an android/drone of some type. Look at her at the end.
The eyes of that kid at 5:07 fill me with complete horror.
@@luccirobbins6675 I can see that...she's so into him despite he insanity
@@luccirobbins6675 You know Speed being a sociopath is a meme that just got really out of hand, right?
@@razztastic yep. That’s why I’m here.
4:03 “you’re blue now. That’s my attack.”
A pair of musicians throwing hand axes at a professional racer actually called Speed Racer in a forest to steal a pineapple from his car.
Not the weirdest thing you've uploaded in your history, probably not even top ten
a pineapple.....a fucking pineapple....rofl
@denise baber Yes, it was a token, although IIRC a certain pineapple also had something enormously valuable inside.
Considering when this was made: well Mexicans gotta have their pineapples for their tropical salsa lol
Well I mean it is a pineapple the most exotic of apples who wouldn't try to commit murder for one ?
I love how they're all in on the Mexican theme for the outfits, accents and music... and then they're using generic axes as weapons.
4:27 "Yes, Speed! Kill for me! Kill for your father!"
3:43 Nearly popped my lungs from laughing.
0:51, even Trixie knows the truth.
this is in fact the only reason why Speed Racer should be watched
5:07 Poggers
Stranger starts to beat up your son in total darkness "get him son👏"
I watched a lot of speed racer growing up and people used to not believe me when I told them how violent it was. Speed haa gotta have one of the highest killcounts of anime protags.
5:40 The secret Joestar technique
runaway
NIGERUNDAYO
Nigeruuuuuuundayoooooooooooooo ssssssssssmokeyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy
@@tld00 sus
Speed:"Are you my brother? Are you my brother Rex Racer" Racer X: *decks him in the gut* Speed: *coughs* "You certainly punch like Rex"
You can tell Speed has trained that guillotine attack, just in case he has to forever paralyze a person. As you can see, Speed wakes up in the morning and chooses chaos.
3:15 for a sec I thought he was gonna end that guy's whole career XD
Or his life
I didnt know Speed wasnt afraid to throw hands like that. Unlike the rest of his personality, that's a pretty endearing quality lol
do you think hes scared?
Do you think he is afraid? Is that what you think about him?
@@bobcostas6272 Do you think he is afraid? Is that what you think of him? Well stop it! He's not scared!
Speed throwing down for his Dad was -weirdly- psychotically wholesome.
This thread is great.
I love how his first instinct to get off a scorpion is to just randomly toss himself out of a fast moving car.
This was the very first anime to ever be shown in germany and now I realize why it was do difficult for anime to be accepted afterwards
Why?
@@thalia102 Why do you think? Did you actually watch the video? Speed Racer is *really* fucking weird if you're watching it for the first time as somebody who can think critically. Most of us have just been watching the show since we were children and never gave it any thought because Speed's the cool guy who also has the fastest car in the world and has a cute girlfriend.
@@razztasticas for me, I didn't find it fucking weird. It's not as if american cartoons didn't have any SPG scenes. Old cartoons like Tom and Jerry had explosives where it was shown Tom got literally exploded many times on the show, yet you westerners didn't complain about american cartoons being violent and weird even though it had tons of nonsensical, absurd scenes on american cartoons countless times.
You westerners are just bias towards americans that whatever americans make, you think they're all great and make sense when in fact countless of american shows are trash
2:43

0:30 - That sudden jump in video quality shocked me.
That sudden jump in a cliff shocked him
It's not an anime. It's an on-going killcam of Speed himself. And the show never ends, because everyone around him is a victim.
He's goin' over the cliff! *HUAAAH*
😂
0:37
I love how the characters (Speed especially) have that permanent dead-eyed glassy stare no matter the situation.
I can’t believe this exists this is accidentally some of the best comedy I’ve seen in some time
Suddenly axe throwing mariachi on a tree has that completely random quality that I love in anime comedy. Couldn't stop laughing.
I remember there was a scene where Rex gets shot in the back of the head by a sniper, and all it does is just kinda make him tired for the rest of the episode
What is this? TH-cam just randomly started showing me speed racer clips a few days ago. And now my favourite cat does too??
Happened to me.
"Speed.... speeeeeed"
Yes, Trixie I do believe that is what was put in all of our drinks.
3:40 was the best 😂
5:33 was probably a single time I was genuinely caught in a twist for years
Hm... dunno what to say. But I agree.
1:35 i’m surprised they were able to find the scorpions 🦂 after they rolled out of the car 🚙 lol 😆
1:19 speed racer's true face
The absolute soulless expressions of the characters is something out of this world.
People complaining about the dub. This is one of the first animes to get dubbed for an American audience. Should be thankful we got anything.
Better than some dubs today
4:42 This right here is true manly friendship. They beat each other black and blue, declare peace and then imediatly befriends each other.
That's how you deal with bullies in Latin America. You got a fight, somebody stop it (a teacher), both get a punishment and both are friends in the same punishment.
0:46 a totally normal sound that all regular humans make
NYEREHEHEHEHEEEEEEH XD
You usually think of Speed Racer as a hilarious exaggeration of motorsport. But look back at racing in the 60s. Honda stopped their F1 program after watching their star racer Richie Ginther get BBQ’d on live worldwide TV. It was a bloodsport.
I was curious about this and looked it up. It seems the racer you were thinking of was Jo Schlesser - According to what I found, Richie Ginther died of a heart attack on a family vacation 20 years after retiring from racing.
The sport was so dangerous then, the cars offered little protection in a crash. But they also didn’t race on 2 lane roads with 500 ft cliffs either.
Neat.
He's going over that Cliff. AHH!
*own car goes over the cliff and into the water*
The moment where Trixie finds out that she’s hallucinating and speed racer is that demonic character still gives me the creeps and hiding under the blankets even to this day and I haven’t seen that for almost 20 years.
Netflix: Are you still watching?
Someones daughter: 0:26

Lmfao
I love this dub, thank you Titra Studios, your Godzilla dubs may be awful, but your dub of Speed Racer is a masterpiece!😊
"He's going over that cliff!"
*"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA"*
1:55 I was legit expecting him to slap her for that nonsense.
“This is no time to act like a girl, Trixie!” 💀
👁 👄 👁 “Okay.” 👌🏻
Speed: There too fast for us we can't get away from them.
Racer X: I have an idea.
*Racer X Casually jumps out of the car moving at 300mph like its nothing*
I also like his idea is to bail the fuck out the car
Rex Racer is the best and the worst name I ever heard anywhere
lol, it's so true.
Shhh, or Elon Musk will name his next kid that.
1:13 He's a Demon on Wheels...
"My daughter!"
