I used to really like Mother’s Basement, but then he became kinda an asshole. I forget what it was that eventually convinced me to unsubscribe though, think it might have been his views on the Vic drama. Also weird that he seemingly forgot which movie was brought up in the article. I feel like someone else must have told him about it and misremembered details and he used that as proof rather than actually read it himself.
Wait this isn’t shuck, I forgot I’d subscribed to this channel but I’m glad I have (edit: Sylvia is a great character because she is who she wants to be and loves Kazuma even to the end)
I almost feel bad for him being unable to enjoy the Konosuba movie, because I found it hilarious, maybe even moreso than season 2. It's really petty to get so upset over one joke in a comedic movie filled with dozens of jokes. Also, everyone getting upset about Gren? Really? A character that appears in one episode that was genetically modified against their will to serve the syndicate (I haven't watched Cowboy Bebop in a while so correct me if I'm missing something). (I hope we get more Konosuba someday, it's one of my favourite anime)
@@qc6057 It's also pretty funny how the same people that get upset over the Sylvia joke also defend a character like Buffalo Bill from Silence of the Lambs...
Yes he really nuked him! He only gets half a million views per video now. Which is more than most other people. I don't like MB either. Most for his piracy take. But the video of a 10 channel with 10k viewers doesn't really change anything.
Not to sidetracked the conversation But I remember When the game theory did a video on persona 4 and he got so many things wrong about the game characters names and all that jazz and that he let Mother's Basement to check his script if he made any mistakes or something something... Watching this and see him how he reacts to situations I don't think he even saw the script he was like... oh yeah so everything is all right All of this is very weird it's just anime it's just for entertainment and you can send a message with your entertainment but many people don't get that or they transform that message to something they want to say with that it's very weird
I hate mothers basement for being a shitty representation of the views he espouses, he is just a grifter that uses progressive language badly to make money. Its annoying and poisons the well. Like Sylvia being the *only* implied trans person in konosuba also being....Sylvia is pretty sus to me when it comes to how the author views trans people. But we cant have that discussion because mothers basement is a soy facing nerd. Though I would say that Cowboy is inherently political? How is the clip you brought up not a critique of capitalism within the universe? It feels that you will be against political analysis of media if it ends up disagreeing with your ideas of that media. I would love to discuss this, I've been watching and commenting for years on your vids and still disagree on the effects of politics on media and its creators. Good video shuck
Can't say much about the Konosuba bit, but the I recently rewatched Cowboy Bebop so... The character in that clip is ignored, in fact the entire character only serves as a running gag of everyone ignoring him, that particular scene is at the end of the episode where he finally gets arrested for blowing up multiple buildings and then he's never seen again Yes, there are politics in the show, but it's never a major focus, and that's what I believe was the point Shuck was making
A shame he fell so far. He was one of the few TH-camrs who'd actually criticize Japanese cartoon writers who put their own shitty views into their writing instead of just saying "It's their show. They can write what they want." & acting like that somehow negates the meaning of the message they chose to write. I always wondered if there was something up with him though. There were always certain things that just didn't seem like something someone would say if they actually cared about the things he claimed to. Like all the times he'd describe Reki Kawahara as a nice guy after spending a whole video talking about how creepy his rape fixation, pedophilic writing, & general misogyny are. Or the time he defended boycotting but said piracy is immoral & sends a bad message that you're not willing to go without the product. How is that a bad message? The companies don't care if you can go without it. They only care if you're paying for it. Plus I always just found it kinda suspicious that someone who hates so many Japanese cartoons for totally legitimate reasons that are typical of Japanese cartoons (which is why Japanese cartoons almost always suck hard) would be so obsessed with Japanese cartoons in the first place & base his whole channel around them. He seems like the kind of person who puts out a lot of views he objectively believes but secretly doesn't care about because he doesn't actually have morals. He understands morals but I don't think he cares about them.
Dear lord, I thought I was weird for not liking anime focusing on style over substance. It's good to know all people don't just blindly believe his word.
I'm sorry, I thought we were talking about how Mother's Basement is a bad video game journalist. But I guess this video was a critique on how his Netflix Bebop review was bad instead...
13:10 that is a personal preference, character is not the most essential part of a story. All the parts are essential, without any one of those parts it stops being a story. (I agree with you on most of your other points.)
Gonna be a real, a lot of this video is assuming mothers basement's intent as destructive and/or rage bait. You interpret the intent of every statement of his in the worst way possible, or at least the one you think is the worst. To me it seems like you view/interact with his content with the goal of disagreeing/getting mad. I have never found any amount of rage bait/trolling or whatever in any of his content, even that which I disagree with. I would recommend taking a step back and either reevaluating the way you interpret him or just not interacting with his content.

Literally the point and message of Bebop is to move on frim your past traumas. It has nothing to do with politics. It has to do with people.
Wait this isn’t shuck, I forgot I’d subscribed to this channel but I’m glad I have (edit: Sylvia is a great character because she is who she wants to be and loves Kazuma even to the end)

I wish they understand how bad terrible the implications of that “representation” is.

great video (love the wano names in the Pokémon gameplay also Spoilers)
Shuck really just dropped a video on this channel out of nowhere after 6 months of not uploading anything, I respect that.
This is a perfect breakdown of most game journalists. Loved it
NGL Shuck, this could have been a main channel vid.
Nah he probably doesn't want to start drama
I'm just glad other people are talking about unnecessarily politicizing everything for no real reason
*IGN has entered the chat*
he is the king of bad industry takes
edit: fucking nuked him. well done shuck

More channels like you need to call out Basement’s bullshit. It’s beyond tiresome to see so many shit takes from him.
Makes you wonder if Basement is from Kotaku with his trash takes! How has he not been called out by many others for all misinformation he spreads??

Sylvia is a chimera that is probably a fantasy hemaphrodite/futa because she adds things to herself, doesn't remove them.

Adult Pokémon fan💀
boy he is so wrong about the anime
Come on bro, its like expecting a dog not to shew on a bone, he cant help himself

Felt like you should have done more insight in his bad reviews of games instead of a bad review of an anime, would correlate with the title better.
Sao isnt good though

Well,considering a lot of dogshit takes MB has made over those videos and being more aggressively political over time,how couldn’t you?

Correct me if I'm wrong but it almost seems like he's been deleting comments, I could not find a single comment disagreeing with him on that video
True I think he deleted Shuckd OG comment on that vid discussing the points he made here too
