I have not watched Season 1b because procrastination and I don't want to yet so stop asking
Ah, so we can't post spoiler in comment section. Got it fam.
It's okay, take your time :)
They've come out with 1c now.
@Audrey go! They need to make a season 1d or I'm committing suicide, this show is the only thing that keeps my from it NINTH GRADE SUCKS BRUH
@JoyFlameBall will you ever make season 1b though or are you over it? If you are over it forever I'm gonna go write an eight page essay regarding season 1b showing cold hard evidence of the Cupbros' neurodivergence.
As a neurodivergent myself, I am autistic and I can relate to a majority of this and it really makes me feel better watching cartoons that represent neurodivergence and it always lets me know that there are people out there that are like me and maybe I should feel good about being on the spectrum because it makes us unique
I have ADHD as well, love how Mugman does the fidgeting hand thing
Same
@@patcorbett1837I have both :)
SAME
I FEEL SO HEARD
I’m autistic too
As someone with ADHD it makes me so happy to see characters that stim. It makes me feel included and valid. :3
Hello, my dear fellow! This is the third time I return back to my phone to write the comment, because I had an extreme urge to do some running and listen to music. And I did. :)
You're indeed valid, have a nice day!
As a neurodivergant, I can usually smell fellow people on the spectrum from a mile away. But I guess that doesn’t apply to cups and mugs, as I never noticed these things until now!
Same here
@@loonyuni2803 I would never believe that Mugsy had autism until the 'Dangerous Mugman' episode which is weird because I can usually sense it as well
As an AuADHD person, I seem to be able to sense it in Koopas. Based on the way Larry is written, I theorize Larry is autistic, and Iggy and Morton are undoubtedly neurodivergent.
Didn't particularly sense it in Cuphead and Mugman, but I also didn't look too deep into it like I did Larry Koopa's character for the sake of writing him in a project. Looking forward to seeing this video and seeing what was found with them... Well, I guess I can actually see how Cuphead and Mugman are neurodivergent when I think about it, hahah!
Cuphead stimming is so adorable 😭😭
IT ISSSSSSS
@@joyflameball Especially these ones 3:04 5:32 6:05😖
@@Muddy-Goldfish72 PURE CUTNESS
It fr is
SO CUUUTE
Now that someone mentioned it, I accept it as cannon that the Cuphead brothers and Chalice are neurodivergent. I didn’t really think about or notice it until I saw this video. Usually I can spot a neurodivergent character from mile away, being neurodivergent myself. (ASD to be specific.) I really appreciate and love this video for so many reasons. ASD makes me who I am-kind, quirky, optimistic and creative. I take great joy and pride in being on the spectrum, and the fact that the Cuphead show portrays the Cuphead brothers and Chalice as neurodivergent makes me so happy. Especially since I am hyper fixated on cartoons and collectibles, and the Cuphead show is the latest cartoon I have been binging repeatedly. I love the show even more now because of this video, which I didn’t think was possible. Thank you form the bottom of my heart for bringing this to light. The world needs more people like you.
@@user-rm2kb7rs2w dude why are you so mad?? you're literally replying to every comment on this video saying "NO THEY ARE NOT!!!!!!😡😡😡" srs bro go somewhere
@pixelatedmoon Lmao loser
I’m autistic and have OCD ADHD and bipolar disorder so seeing this in a show and seeing people who are like me with the same disorder makes me feel less alone and that I don’t belong!! This makes day so much better
As someone with autism, I can confirm that nearly everything in on these two cupbros. It’s really amazing to see neurodiversity in this show and in Donatello’s character in the new TMNT show.
14:33 phttt HAHAH WHY DID HE JUMP UP WHILE SMILING LIKE THAT😭😭😭
I wasn’t really convinced until the pocket lint part. That is just *advanced* neurodivergence.
Why are they so adorable tho-
Fr
And then season two comes around and they go insane
1:00 "GUYS GUYS HE'S DOING THE HAND THING"
My mind said "Is he, ya know....? Nah, neurodivergent and I'm so here for that!"
As someone who is neurodivergent, it's one of my favorite things to see little things I do pointed out in characters I like! The RSD is definitely nice to see as an autistic and someone who has RSD.
this video made me realize a few things about myself.
YEAAHAHAHHAHAHAHHAHAHH I'M GLAD!!!!!!
same
Same
Me too, darlin’, me too-
I would say that some of these can be chalked up to the cupbros being young (ex. the whole pocket lint thing and Cuphead ignoring social cues in Roll the Dice) but I absolutely agree with you. Cuphead has one of the most insane cases of unmedicated childhood adhd ive ever seen (source: I WAS that kid in elementary school) and Mugman def has autism and problems with sensory overload and rsd, especially in season 2 with the ice cream and piano episodes. I would also argue that Cuphead has a hyperfixation on explosives, especially because of the Lost in the Woods ep in season 2 where he just. wouldn't. stop. using. them.
also you know how some autistic people will just walk on pointe everywhere? I feel like Chalice is like that but with tap dancing.
6:05 he looks adorable here
Yes, and Cuphead squeeing onstage about his hyperfixations/special interests makes me grin so wide every time I watch Roll the Dice
Also, according to this episode, Cuphead and I have a similar taste in music, which makes me extremely happy. Leg kicking and happy rocking happens every time
HEADCANON: mugman has autism and cuphead has adhd
(I HAVE AUTISM AND ADHD, I SEE THE SIGNS)
Same!
Same here!
@@user-rm2kb7rs2w it's called a headcanon why are you offended.....
SO REAL
@@elayna___ jazzi is just a hater
One could say they did this on purpose to relate with the audience more.
It worked on me.
I'm autistic and my younger brother has ADHD. So cuphead and mugman are even more relatable now that I realize how much neurodivergent energy they give off!
5:48 Being a cameo of King Dice's own ND vibes: scatting is pretty much a vocal stim for him!
Supposed free-thinkers when Hand Thing™
So true bestie
the velociraptor hands strike again
6:42 is literally me every second of every day (ADHD in action)
this
I never really picked up on it, but now that I've noticed, I will never let go.
**gently holds neurodivergent cupbro's**
@@user-rm2kb7rs2w I know they aren't, but I like to think they are
I’m autistic and I can confirm they are. it’s now canon.
@@user-rm2kb7rs2w cuphead and mugman are so neurodivergent trust me i see the signs (i'm autistic and i have adhd)
Same (I'm autistic and have a bit of adhd aswell)
i have light autism. can i ask how it’s canon? have the creators of the show confirmed this? have the characters in this show said they’re neurodivergent? i will admit that they do show ND traits but i fail to understand how it’s canon
@@Takenisti’m mildly autistic too
this video made me learn more about myself than those adhd/autism tests ever did omg 😳
11:22 11:29
DEVIL DOES THE HAND THING ASWELL
That's just cause he's gay
11:12 (My AU) Me and my bestie going to look for my cat at 1:00 in the morning:
i guess i never really notice these things as a neurodivergent person, now im starting to connect the dots. this really only makes me love the show even more
Wow as someone who’s neurodivergant, I was seeing my weekly cup head show out of context and my ask my self today earlier “Do the cup bros have ADHD” I was like “naaaahhhhh but maybe” then BOOM this vid✨, so ye I’m not the only one thinking of this theory ✨
as a neurodivergent this is canon
I agree
i agree too
THEY HAD THE PERFECT CHANCE TO PUT DIE HOUSE INTO THE ROLE THE DICE EPISODE-
AND THEY MISSED IT:(
8:06 OGOGMGGMGMGMGM AWHWHWHWHWHAHWHAHA THEYRE HOLDING HANDS and even after watching this episode 10+ times i just realized this
2:20 bipolar moment. Even though I know that's not what they were probably going for, it made me feel included, or rather noticed, for some reason
I’m neurodivergent and this is all canon because I said so
I also said so
@@user-rm2kb7rs2w why are you here then?? It's just a headcanon it's not harming anyone so leave .
This is the best video in the world and you are a blessing to this fandom
And I related a little too hard to some of these
YEAHHHHHHHHAHAHAHAAHAAHAAAAH
I always suspected these two were neurodivergent. I think it says quite a lot about me the more I think about it due to just how fully I relate to Cup and Mug. Ah hell, not again...
Moments I missed:
17:16 Cuphead stomping while playing the game - CUPHEAD STIM
1:35 Mugman not noticing Cuphead was using the paint canon - No spacial awareness huh
Wait until you see how many times they do the Hand Thing tm in Season 2.
@@audreygo1828 OHHHHOHOHOOHOHOHOHOOO
@@joyflameball Well SOMEONE'S happy.
Even the Devil does the Hand Thing tm in both seasons too!!
@JoyFlameball plz make one for season 2
Hand thing™ adds another year to my life the more it happens.
Same
“chair”
“no ,dresser”
“CHAIR”
I came in expecting some dumb compilation but keep in mind this compilation (based on episodes being 11 minutes) is about 1/6 of the WHOLE first season. Plus I'm neurodivergent so I think I know more terms on this list than most casual versions
Cuphead has ADHD and Mugman has autism and I have both
SO REAL.
@@user-rm2kb7rs2w Prove it.
@@user-rm2kb7rs2w bro its literally been implied in the show.. why are you so mad😭😭
11:04 me wearing socks and shoes to bed... texture/pressure combo A+
SO MANY HAND THING™ AAAAA- (this was really funny btw)
Ayyy a fellow neurodivergent-
This is actually rly accurate! Could u make a part 2 with season 1b/season 2?
Thank you! I have not yet watched Season 1b due to procrastination and other hyperfixations, but as soon as my brain functions again you BETTER BELIEVE I'M MAKING THAT COMPILATION
@@joyflameball not asking with the intention of trying to rush a video, but have you watched it and season 3 yet? If so did you enjoy them?
@@voch123 Gonna be honest I stopped hyperfixating on TCS and it may take a long long LONG while before I hyperfixate on it again, I'm really sorry
@@joyflameball It’s ok, it’s really good though imo I think you’d like it
I’m glad I’m not the only one who noticed 16:13 when I got to that part of the show I immediately thought sensory overload 😂
0:45 not saying you're essentially wrong, this happens to me as well, but I think cuphead just wanted to win tickets/gen
yeah because tickets = new things and new things = dopamine. still tracks.
Ah, good to know I’m not the only one who thought this while watching the show lol. I mostly relate to Mugman XD
I don't really know what "the hand thing™" is, and at this point i'm too afraid to ask
Edit: is it weird that i'm actually interested in mugman's shoe mice story
Edit num° 2: please do a second part with season two pls
Addmhhfkrfjturrtlultttuggndgnhrj
every neurodivergent knows what the hand thing tm is
Neurodivergent people somehow keep method acting T-rex. No explaination, they just do it because they like it. Little T-Rex hands.
The hand thing TM is where somebody points the back of their hand to the front.
The Hand Thing™ is holding your hands in front of you, fingers facing down and possibly curled, like a pangolin or a T-Rex. It's a common thing some autistic (and other neurodivergent) people do because holding arms in a different position feels unnatural. It can also be because some of us have issues knowing where our limbs are located without seeing them (kinesthetic sense) so holding them in front of the chest is a safe position. And other reasons, it depends on people.
my husband is both HDHD and (high functioning) autistic and yess. esp remembering something getting you distracted from current task.
i keep coming back and watching this ahah 💀❤️❤️❤️
I would be on the completely same page with Mugman on 2:20. Someone hurt my plushies in any, I would *TEAR THEM APART.*
YEA
Me: watching videos regarding neurodivergent characters and seeing myself being described in horrific detail.
Has a thing about characters who portray those characteristics.
Also me: Is there _really_ such a big chance l *am* actually neurodivergent
_Same_
same-
Newsflash: I am. I haven't been diagnosed, but you don't need to go to an ophthalmologist to tell you that you can't see shit
so glad i could be a help to this (i’m Laertes btw). also, 22 MINUTES?? you are spoiling us❤️
Thank you cowbestie
This video is WAYYYY more than just 70% projecting but that doesn't mean it's not fun to watch
Edit: am also neurodivergent, no shade! You do you! Always!
Your video convinced me. It makes me unable to take my eyes off♥
As an autistic person,I can confirm that Mugman is autistic.
After watching this video I am now convinced that I might be neurodivergent.
5:04 me after school
Yeah
these little cups are the best thing to happen to me- they are way to relatable
(as a person with ADHD and...possibly some amounts of autism)
I LOVE THIS VIDEO SO MUCH! YOU HAVE NO IDEA HOW MUCH I LOVE THIS VIDEO! THANK YOU FOR MAKING IT!!!!! ❤️💙❤️💙
this video lives free in my head and now i realize i might be neuro divergent ,_,
you missed a mug man hand thing tm at 21:27
It’s hilarious how Mugman is way too relatable to me, he does so many things I do, along with Cuphead’s chaotic nature
Please do not support my theory that Cuphead has ADHD because he's already cute enough (but go on if you must cause I love these two sm)
I’ve read this 5 times and I still don’t get what you’re saying..
@@user-rm2kb7rs2w Okay okay chill, no need to yell geez
the most relatable video yet thanks for letting me know there's people who are EXACTLY like me 🤣
OH ALSO ALSO ALSO WHEN CUPHEAD RUNS AROUND N A CIRCLE AFTER BABY BOTTLE STARTS CRYING IT COULD PROBABLY COUNT AS HIS STOMPING STIM BECAUSE HE'S FREAKED OUT BUT THAT'S JUST MY THEORY (Oh and btw ths video is absolute gold I love it)
Devil Hand Thing tm moments in this video:
11:22
11:24
11:26 (kinda)
11:29 - 30 (blink and you'll miss)
11:31
13:58 (kinda, I say it counts shush-)
14:01 (BLINK AND YOU'LL MISS)
15:21 (sure he's getting electrocuted but I think it kinda counts)
HE PROBABLY HAS MORE IN THE SHOW BUT YEAH HERES THE ONES I SAW
HAVE A NICE DAY
I see it too
I thought I was the only one who saw it
That’s why Cuphead is so me
me when cuphead: omg he is so adhd 😍😍
As someone with ADD I can relate on a whole level!
I know you aren't hyperfixating on TCS atm but one of the episodes in season 1c literally proves your chalice tap dance theory i'm not even kidding, I was watching it earlier today and literally thinking "dang it's her stim dang audio stimulation is real maybe she's neurodivergent" AND THEN I LITERALLY SEE THIS VIDEO HOURS LATER ARE YOU KIDDING????
So yes, it's all canon. Literally nothing can convince me otherwise. I WILL DIE ON THIS HILL [ cuts to me joining the cupbros in doing the hand thing ™ because i adopted it as of ten seconds ago because something something hyperfixation ]
oh so that's what RSD is... I go completely off the rails when facing rejction.
Does that I mean I have it now? though im not ADHD... I am on the autism spectrum..
I love this show. And Bless you JoyFlameBall
Please make one for season 2.
10:25--10:34 Me. I do not like being stared at, especially at a large crowd.
I watched this video for fun and I just realized I do the hand thing all the time and I feel called out dammit
Same.
all this stuff does seem like things me (an idiot with autism and adhd) would do, but I do think they act silly for the sake of being a cartoon. I still like this compilation!
As a person with autism and a bit of adhd, I can see it being canon and it literally is
idk alot of the things theyre doing is things some humans do anyway, on top of the over dramatic gestures and such are things that are heavily normalized and comical in old cartoons which is what its modeled after. and thats coming from someone concerning autism and adhd.
@@user-rm2kb7rs2w I know they're not. They're cartoon characters, acting as cartoon characters in the 1960s acted lol.
So in 60s people was neurodivergent? Lmao
@@mirijelly9367 You're about 30 years off there bud.
I literally finished watching the series yesterday, and this video appears. I love mugman so much, he's so me
what is the actual name for 'hand thing tm'? i thought i was the only one :)
I heard that neurodivergent people call it "STIMMING" but is more than A hand thing, it's used for repetitive behaviors.
@@vhsfound57outof100 I thought it was referencing "raptor handsTM" thing that some neurodivergent people do
As someone with autism and adhd I really respect cuphead, mugman, and chalice stimming.
Also 4:33 or that Cuphead doesn't care about what people wear, just about whether or not he has to do something.
3:16 erm just me but this type of stuff is just called a childs imagination
10:44 To be fair, that's cartoon logic.
I'm neurodivergent (AuADHD) though and see Larry Koopa as autistic, and I like the idea of Cuphead and Mugman being neurodivergent as well, but I did feel that was necessary to point out. (Also not sure about Mugman not having a gender just because he dressed up as a lady for a plot, don't agree with that either, but I don't want to be a downer on any of this, I'm enjoying the video!)
EDIT: I actually do gotta thank your video, not just for enjoying all the Cuphead Show clips (because I've been looking back at the Cuphead Show again lately), I think I now know why I'm so scared and insecure with rejection and all, I think I have rejection sensitive dysphoria as well as autism and adhd.
As an adhd person that recetly got QUITE THE HYPERFIXATION on cuphead (both game and show) im happy i found this video :D
Cup And Mugsy are loose cannons and I love it 😊
As a teen in high school with autism I kinda relate to the Brothers since Cuphead, bendy and fnaf is reason what got me interested into the indie game genre and animation genre 😊❤🎉
lol did you not see the devil do the hand thing
I DIDN’T JNOW NOT HAVINF SPACIAL AWARENESS WAS A ND THING OH MY HOD
exellent
Is nobody gonna talk about Devil doing the Hand Thing ™️ multiple times in the show?
As someone who is neurodivergent (ADHD and Autism) I related to this video almost entirely
Raptor hands nation
AUGHHHH I KNEW I WASNT THE ONLY PERSON WHO THOUGHT THEY WERE NEURODIVERGENT !!!! As a person with ADHD seeing a character that has ADHD / is ADHD coded makes me so happy!!!
I love this sm❤
as someone with ADHD i can confirm the cups both have it tbh 😝
not a single person in this show is neurotypical. not even that phone. he keeps losing his damned soul
Gooooood, I have metric tons of ADHD, but seeing all this honestly makes me feel better cuz I know I'm not the only one :)
some of these are kinda just "being a kid" thing-
GlUe iS gLuE
Something tells me that Cuphead has ADHD and Mugman has autism. As an autistic, I believe people with ADHD are neurotypical, since they’re so much more common. Deal with it. :P
