Maybe Truck-Kun was never multiple trucks but the same force working through all of them... one being many faces.
The Rainforest is under protected
Truck-kun is becoming a portal device for transferring/transporting between different worlds.
New show idea: Truck-kun's quest to find the one true protagonist/MC to isekai into the one true other world to save the anime multiverse/omniverse and restore balance to the anime force!
Truck-kun is just a Transformer having a really, really bad day.
He has Decepiticon energy for damn sure. Probably a reject Stunticon.
Motormaster
@@vietcong411 More like Nemesis Prime. Truck-kun never LOL'd sadistically every time he "isekai'd" someone which is typical behavior for Motormaster. The Stunticon leader was such an arrogant bully that even his teammates loathed him and that was why Menasor was always so unhinged.
@@XenoJehuty84 A Decepticon sleeper who was left out in the field too long and went Colonel Kurtz on them.
@@mortified776 He got the Spark madness.
Truck-kun is the character that connects the entire isekai cinematic universe.
He will come for us all.
@@ravoniesravenshir3926
Nope!
Truck-kun is scared of the Kamen Riders, Turbo Red, Black Condor, Ryuuranger, Red Carranger, Magi Red (Power of Love and Friendship at Dragon Ball level), Bouken Red, Geki Red, Go-Onger Red, Gosei Red, Gokai Red, Toqger Red (Power of Imagination at reality warp level), Kyuranger Leo (Power of Luck & Hard Work at multiversal level), Kira Red (Power of Imagination at realty warp level), and Akiba Red (since he can return back to his universe through the Power of Obsession and Power of Waifus which are at realty warps level).
@@whathell6t dont forget the entirety of the ultras species
This is the most intriguing true crime documentary on TH-cam ever. No comparison. Well researched. We need Netflix series adaptation of crimes of Truck-kun and his copycats.
Beware Truck-kun, folks. The streets. You crossed it. He came. Demon to some. Angel to the others.
Yes we are all very lucky he didn't keep this video behind his own proprietary streaming service where you would get discount if you were also subscribed to his patreon. I always look forward to my buns iPod videos
An anime about what forces control truck-kun and why could be an interesting start
Truck-kun tried to isekai Pickle the Primitive Man from Baki. It failed and Pickle savagely eviscerated Truck-kun before eating the meat stored in its trailer.
@@dearthditch there is already a Manga with that premise. I think it got an anime adaptation back in 2013 or 15
I recently saw a bike-kun, so the copycats are uh... getting adventurous.
truck-kun isnt evil, truck-kun is above that, he protects isekai worlds by reincarnating people that never wanted to live in this world in the first place.
Are you saying Truck-kun is protecting the anime multiverse and is actually secretly a hero?
@@petertrypsteen yes he is saying that
New show idea: Im reincarnated as truck kun, now i reverse isekai all the bland male heroes
I've had a similar idea that I entertain in my head every so often following truck kun.
Episode 1 opens: a man about to leave for work and his little sister confesses to him. He explains that its not healthy to feel that way and that when he gets home from work they will look into therapy. Walks outside and is flattened by a truck.
Scene then switches to inside the truck where the driver is freaking out that the now dead man said he wasn't going to bang his little sister and that its going to reflect poorly on the drivers performance review isekai-ing someone with morals. As the driver is reviewing his checklist he lets out a sigh of relief "atleast it says here that dude was ok with slavery".
As the show progresses the demon lords of the multiple worlds form a coalition and try to stop truck-kun by sending various things to earth which truck-kun must run over to complete his mission. And it all culminates with truck-kun running over God.
I'm not a writer so this will never become a reality but its an idea that I've had floating in my head for a while. Every so often when I'm bored i flesh it out a little more.
@@imALazyPanda I think I am a simpleton because if the Isekai Trucker bemoaning his poor choice of protag-kun because he's not an incest-freak, but then sighing in relief because he is at least a slavery-freak feels like a joke that happens in a Simpsons-episode where being a weeb is so mainstream the Simpsons makes jokes about it... and I still laughed.
Would absolutely be here for Truck-kun flattening God in the final episode. Bonus if he thinks to himself "What would Optimus-senpai do" and the final battle happens to Transformers music. "You got the touch" as his wheels pancake Jehovah would be... well, it would be something.
@@goranisacson2502 yeah my brain has been tainted by decades of American adult cartoon comedy. I could see the Simpsons doing something on anime, I don't watch it but I know they've done niche things in the past. There was an episode where Lisa collects hat pins, which I've only ever seen at music festivals and even then its a subset of people who go to festivals. I only know this because I have hat pins and people have commented they thought it was something the Simpson essentially made up. Thats definitely more obscure at this point as anime has become pretty mainstream.
Look up "Isekai Transporter."
@@goranisacson2502to be fair this has some real konosuba vibes to it as well so it's good.
Honestly one of the most underrated anime villans of all time
no, the greatest hero of our time, sending all the Isekai weebs elsewhere
How is this a villain when it is partialy responsible in saving another world?
NAY THE GREATEST ANTI-HERO OF THEM ALL :D
Or secretly a misunderstood hero!
Truck-kun is the modern day incarnation of Mara, the enforcer of the Wheel of Samsara.
Pretty much
You mean that penis monster in SMT? Okay then.
My last name is Marah and all I know is that Mara is the Hindu goddess of destruction. Is there a weeb version of a Mara I don’t know about?
@@artOVtrolling The Hindu Goddess of Destruction was turned into a penis monster in Shin Megami Tensei (including its spinoff, Persona).
@@artOVtrollingmarah means angry in my mother tongue
The Internet was made for this video, specifically
I want to get a bumper sticker for my brothers truck that says: isekai express
"A human who used the Death note can go to neither heaven nor hell."
If this also applies to those killed by the Death Note, then now we know where Isekai characters come from.
Heartfelt video about Ancient Magus Bride followed by a history lecture about Truck-kun, THIS is why I support the Patreon XD
I'm always surprised that so many people think the truck was the end of Minky Momo. They never realize that it ran for another cour after that, with Momo reincarnated as a human.
It was too long to be called a shitpost. Too well written, too well edited, and too well researched.
An entire video about anime's most infamous serial killer. Absolutely bone-chilling. Well done.
Serial killing truck gets the ultimate redemption arc by sending heroes to other worlds saving lives beyond counting and giving second chances to lost souls.
Japan? The amount of Korean shoujo romance fantasy manhwa that doesn't start with truck Kun can be counted on hands
My favorite was death by fried chicken. Forgot which series that was, but the MC died after eating fried chicken.
Then there was MXTX'S Scum villain who choked on a dimsum.
Truck Kun fears just one being. Her name is Sakura Minamoto, and he still feels the pain in his windshield on cold nights…
This is where you built Astro boy sir?
No... This is where i played god...
As a salesman travelling around town with my Isuzu canter, I can definitely say that you get sent straight to the afterlife the moment she hits 40
I can not believe that you could get through this without cracking up.
I also can't believe that I never saw anybody else do this. 😂😂😂 Great job 👍
I've seen at least two other youtubers do something more or less like this in the past year. This one is significantly better than those though.
The first Truck-kun incident that I remember was in the Mermaid Saga manga by Rumiko Takahashi; in the Mermaid Forest mini-series, Mana gets struck by a truck and (seemingly) killed to set off the events of the story (if you haven't read the manga, she and her companion Yuta are immortal, more or less--they die but any injuries short of complete disintegration or beheading eventually heal and they come back to life). Knowing Takahashi's sense of humor, it was probably a direct parody of Minky Momo, which had re-aired, if I remember correctly from the Ken Lauderdale video about MM, in 1986, the year before the Mermaid Forest chapter was published. Strangely, when the OAV was made a few years later, they changed her "death" to falling off a cliff rather than being Truck-kun's victim.
Sally the Witch did have a Truck Kun attempt. It was in the 1960s.
Indepth profound analysis of different and obscure anime and manga, and also Truck Kun documentary sponsored by ball awareness. Best youtube channel ever.
The keyboard researchers at bonsaipop university really outdid themselves this time. Hat's off to you all.
Truly dedicated anime keyboard scholars.
Clearly the Japanese god of death takes the form of an Isuzu delivery truck
As a person who read\watched around 20 isekais in the last 6 months, I rejoice! Finally a profound content!
I understood that refrence!
theyre expanding Westward, invading with the craze of importing JDM Kei Trucks
15 seconds in & Mike's hair is giving me pre-2020 vibes
It made me put on Linkin Park’s Hybrid Theory on reflex.
I... NEVER KNEW this story!
Great vid guys! Loved the editing
This had no business being this well done, well researched or fun. Thanks Mike!!!
in astroboy, he simply killed him.With magical princess, he gained power from her and was cursed to have all his kills revived
I live and roam in the mountains of Japan.. late at night and through the day, whenever melancholy comes by.. I wonder about Truck Kun, and if I could be Isekaid.. then I Remember no No Truk Kun! This will not bare well with me…..
I Must LIVE My Life!
Even if humble and uncelebrated, I must Be my Best Self here Every Day!
So when the final trumpet calls I May Isekai myself to a land and new adventure I Earned by my own worth
Arigato Truck Kun you remind me of the multidimensionality of life and to not worry, yet keep on living there are always new adventures ahead
Gotta love the dedication of Bonsai Pop University 🙏🏾
Okay. But I would watch a Truck-kun Final Destination-esque anime.
"You are getting isekai'd whether you want to or not!"
That one time that Truck-kun cosplayed as a subway train in Gantz 🙌
Good old....truck kun....
I'm not sure what surprised me more: hearing Chinatown play in the beginning, or learning how Asto Boy came to be.
Truck kun had been working this magic across the pond in Korean dramas too. You should do a cross analysis
I'd say it is because of "101st Proposal" - Japanese dorama from 2006. Famous scene where the main character jumps in front of a truck to prove to the widow he's courting who is afraid to love and lose someone again... that he's not gonna die.
This is why I’m a patron
Urotsukidōji: Legend of the Overfiend, which Yu Yu Hakusho seems inspired by to some degree, does have Truck-Kun instead of a car... at least in the manga. Although Truck-kun doesn’t hit the protagonist, he’s a demon and gets away just fine, but it does crash into other people. He also does save the baby Truck-Kun was about to hit. So maybe one of the first parody of the now standard “saving kid from Truck-Kun” scene. Parody because not only does the demon not get hit, he’s confused why he even saved the kid to begin with and just throws it into a river.
The start of the Urotsukidōji manga would’ve been just two years after the airing of the Magical Princess Minky Momo episode.
Im so glad you mentioned Excel Saga, because my theory is tied to it.
Just as Excel was brought back by the Great Will, the truck itself was affected.
It's interaction with Excel and Great Will gave it, by design or by accident, the ability to transcend time and space.
So, while Excel Saga isn't the first time we saw Truck-kun historically, it was the moment of creation.
Or something like that...
I know it's not technically Truck-kun, but I'm still disappointed Bison driving the semi wasn't snuck in there(or did I blink and miss it?).
I don’t think I could even count the amount of manga I’ve read with truck-kun being a key opening figure 😂 what a great video. 10/10 just as good as I thought it would be.
“This is bonsai pop, and welcome to 69minutes (nice) “
From what i remember "truck-kun" was definitely a thing before 2006. And i feel like i remember it coming from the Nissan joke. At least in the US where and when i grew up, anime and manga were starting to become more accepted in the late 90s early 00s. And the translations started to be more faithful. Combined with the increase in scanlation sites. So terms like "kun" and "san" started to become much more known. Around that time that was when i first remember hearing the Nissan joke and truck-kun. Which i am quite sure was around 2003. Considering it had a large spike in 06. I would actually assume that the term really was floating around, probably in a convergent evolution type way.
God of trickery, reincarnation, wiper fluid and skid marks.
Truck-kun is in American media as well. Jeepers creepers. Joy ride. Maximum overdrive
Christine is a car-sama
@@ladybardic388 Don't forget her male part-time partner, The Car aka the hell car from southwestern USA😈
I don't think the Creeper counts as Truck-kun. The victims are just dead.
@@TaLeng2023 that was his summer internship ! Gotta start somewhere
That's some damn fine research for such an ultimately silly topic, kudos! And speaking of kudos, yay for landing a sponsor.
This seems like the perfect April Fools video 😂 and T-Chan is amazing but who's on the inside if there even is anyone plus TruckChan has evolved so much over the years.
Great video, must respect truck kun for all the stories he has started.
This is brilliant, take my money
On the heels of you last video it's nice to see you can still step outside yourself and being able to lean into something rooted in humor. It doesn't make the bad times go away but it can at least make them more tolerable. Your really are pretty great.
😂That Jack Black to Zuckerberg comparison was hilarious!
Thank you for this video! I never knew just how important a role Truck-kun has played in so many of the anime that I have enjoyed.
Discovered you through the Watsuki video, subscribed for Truck-kun. Thanks for being a real one, Mike.
I love that Truck-kun's great reveal date is accompanied by Shin-Hisako's theme
There was a pretty wild manga about a driver for the trucks that Isekai people
That was amazing. Thank you
At this point, I'm surprised that no one has thought to make a mecha Truck-kun charge at the main protagonist to start a story.
What does it matter what happens before the start of an isekai?
It'd be a great setup for a comedy centric story.
Fantastic video, as always. Nice Pez boy on the shelf.
I can tell you had fun with that. Well done!
this is the content I subscribed for. 10/10
Some of the best work you guys have done. Bravo 👏🏻
Gotta say this video made my morning. Good work guys!
Fantastic video as always!
What if Truck-kun isn't evil but an entrepreneur? He gets paid for doing hits but because he is truly greedy he also has a deal with different worlds to give them heroes and...Kazuma like people too. He's making bank this whole time on both sides. Truly the best double agent ever. 😎
Absolutely love that the thesis on truck-kun is basically the same as the thesis for Paranoia Agent.
This is the dumbest shit and I love it
Truck-Kun doesn't have a 100% fatality rate, kinda. Ajin also starts with Truck-Kun, and also kills the protagonist, but he shortly gets better.
This was so fun 😂 thank you for this video
Absolute CINEMA 🎥
The story you never knew
Hahaha, Isekai Enabler. I love it!
I adore Truck-kun its such a fun and silly idea and its comforting to have the same start into the unknown world
I have a self created cosplay character I sometimes do. A worker for the Isekai/MC services. Uses Truck-Kun as a mascot. We help main characters with all their needs. Taking care of parents, tragic back story, isekai, you name it...
2:00 Brave of you to assume my “boys” are “big”
I didn't know I needed this video until I watched it, thank you
I very much appreciate y'all for this!
Love the grandia 2 battle music at the end. Keep it up bonsai
THANK YOU! I had a feeling it was Grandia 2 music, but darenot ask lest I be labeled "wrong" on the internet.
This is the content I come here for. Thank you for doing the lard’s work.
Missed you people. Great video
I don't know what I expected, but it was incredible.
Amazing vid lol
My favorite isekai is from long before it was a prolific genre. 1995's El-Hazard: The Magnificent World
This is one of the funniest and also most intriguing things I've seen in a long time 👏👏👏
Great video! All hair best boi Truck-kun. I look forward to your next true crime anime trope exploration :)
Absolutely stellar vid. but please please please don’t even joke about truck-kuning yourself ( 18:37 ). I know it’s just dark humor, and I get and appreciate dark humor, but I also remember the first video of yours I watched - A Silent Voice Made Me Cry (A Lot) - and the confession you made in it at about the 13.30 mark and it stuck with me. Hearing you say that made me uneasy. Please take care of yourself.
I at least vaguely assumed the rise of popularity of Truck-kun (in fiction) was directly related to Mushoku Tensei and the subsequent boom in isekai. Mushoku Tensei started in 2014, for reference
in the Isekai Truck Driver one. He encounters a protagonist who is so good at evading his truck, he just rips off a piece of his truck, and goes on foot t o beat him to death with it.
It still technically counts XD
What a fantastic Idea for a video! and your research and conclusion are really inspired, truck-kun as a psycopump guiding soul in the after life really make sense to me, like a Valkyrie taking worthy warrior to the valhala. Great Job, a short but brillant video essay!
This is the best topic you’ve ever had.
It took me A LOT longer than it should have to understand what on earth this one was on about!! xD
Great job 😁👍
Mad, you actually do have Truck-Kun in this world too!
My world had him too, I wish I could go back but I'm yet to find the real Truck-Kun.
Glad to know I'm not chasing a spectre and that I actually have a shot to go back.
I first saw truck-kun at the end of the original animated Street Fighter film, being driven by Bison grinning as he looms behind an unsuspecting Ryu.
This is one of the most interesting videos I've ever watched. Doing a bunch of research just to know of about Truck-kun 😂 that is commitment.
This was entertaining AF haha and informative
Really good video
My earliest truck-kun memory is from 3x3 eyes. It's still one of my favorite ones even tho it was bus-kun if I remember right.
Truck-kun the real hero
