Senator: I'm op because of nanomachines *dies* Vamp: I'm immortal because of nanomachines *dies* Johnny: I don't have nanomachines *gets married and lives a Happy Life*
Johnny also helped Naked Snake quite a lot during Portable Ops events, he's the first soldier he and Campbell recruit (I'm currently replaying it so it's fresh in my mind) He instructs Snake and gives him intel about what's going on Anyhoo, good job!
@luffiewebster it's not considered cannon tho! And portable ops and peace ops are fucking amazing. Just discovered your channel as I was learning more MGSV stuff since I'm playing it for first time. Keep up the wonderful work!
Meryl never had a chance with snake, foxdie or not. My guy was too busy stomping out illegal metal gears and being one of Sunny's 2 dads. Johnny was low-key the secret everyman protagonist lol
It's always been weird to me that Meryl ends up marrying Johnny, but can you imagine a universe where Emma survives and ends up marrying him instead somehow? I don't know why I randomly thought about that, but the idea of this genius marrying the poop gag guy and they both help save the world feels like it could fit in the same situation. And now I'm making myself sad thinking about her possible interactions with Sunny.
I think Meryl and Johnny is a case of opposites attract, but I'd never thought about him and Emma!! They would have been so cute together!! Maybe she could have helped Johnny through a doctor's visit so he could get his IBS under control haha
I absolutely adore the story of Johnny. A three-game-spanning meme becomes one of the key heroes of MGS4 and it couldn’t come in a more charming or adorkable package. He was definitely the comedic relief of MGS4, but he was also a crucial part of keeping the mood light at all the right narrative points.
@@luffiewebster I think they did Johnny dirty though if I’m honest. I think, after such incompetence over so many years, it wouldn’t have hurt for them to write his character as suspicious of nanomachines & the system as a whole, so much so he was willing to forgo the abilities they provided, rather than ‘I just hate needles’ I think it would have rounded off his character better & even left the player with a little more respect for him.
Just wanted to say love your vids. You are so knowledgeable about the entire mgs series and have a great way of presenting these characters and their stories that aren’t really fully explained in the game. Keep it up!!
Aw thank you so much!!! I'm so glad you like the vids :D I def want to do these characters/stories justice so your compliment really means a ton to me!
I actually compare him to Neville Longbottom; He seems like such a klutz. But god damn; He saves Snake AND Meryl! He's one of my favourite characters. No joke!
Well Johnny is only in more games than solid snake if u count his grandpa. That’s two different characters. Why not combine BB and Solid Snake since they’re both Snake?
Shhh shhh shhh... Let me cheat the numbers a lil bit (that's a good point tho haha combining Johnny and his grandpa would be like combining BB and Snavid)
Wait if he's a genome soldier does that mean he is also a snake?! No wonder he ended up with Meryl I mean tbf he did look like a really young and dashing Snake when his face was revealed I guess it makes sense now he prolly has some Snake genes in him
"Snavid" is a such a silly thing to call him... but I kinda dig it. lol Also, it's been fun playing with this lore. I've been working on a MGS2 spoof radio play story using AI voices and Johnny plays a pretty important role in the first act. Was so much fun searching online for pooping noises, lol
Are you calling him Snavid? I'm asuming the others are Snohn, Sneeli, & Snorge? Let's not forget about Snack... I like Snack. What about Snou (V)? Get it because he's you...
Took me far too long to figure out you were saying snavid but thats pretty funny. Really cool timing on the video too since I just started mgs5 for the first time
kojima probably set up Johnny to be the next main character if there is going to be any game that take place after MGS4 since only Johnny and Meryl are still in the military life while pretty much all other character retired after MGS4..
I’d never thought about Johnny potentially being the protagonist of a game that comes next in the timeline after MGS4! You’re right tho, pretty much everyone else is retired, so I can see it! Would you play a game with Johnny as the main character?
@@luffiewebster if it's made by Kojima, yes i would since i think only him could make Johnny work as a main character, especially incorporate his stomach problem into gameplay. after all Kojima did made a game that base entirely around fetch quest and it's fun to play..
Honestly can't even be mad at Johnny I know a lot of people found the overall joke a bit dumb to me personally I never got tired of it, It was always funny. Him and Meryl getting together is a bit of an odd choice but whatever I love all the silly stuff in the entire Metal Gear series.
This is an older video of mine at this point, so I was probably worried people wouldn’t know I was talking about Solid Snake when I said Snavid haha nowadays I pretty much exclusively call him Snavid tho! Do you call Solid Snake Snavid too?
Johnny proved that no matter how bad your IBS may be, you can still be a hero.
He's an example to us all o7
"No nanomachines son" The story of how IBS saved the world 😂 Love Johnny 👑
Seriously tho 😂
Senator: I'm op because of nanomachines *dies*
Vamp: I'm immortal because of nanomachines *dies*
Johnny: I don't have nanomachines *gets married and lives a Happy Life*
I'll never forget how hilarious the dialogue between him and Emma is near the end of MGS2. Classic Kojima.
I screamed the first time I heard it haha! I couldn't believe Johnny was there!!
Johnny also helped Naked Snake quite a lot during Portable Ops events, he's the first soldier he and Campbell recruit (I'm currently replaying it so it's fresh in my mind)
He instructs Snake and gives him intel about what's going on
Anyhoo, good job!
:O Really?? agh I want to play Portable Ops so bad haha I need more Johnny...
@luffiewebster it's not considered cannon tho! And portable ops and peace ops are fucking amazing. Just discovered your channel as I was learning more MGSV stuff since I'm playing it for first time. Keep up the wonderful work!
@@socomply5963portable ops is cannon
I know this comment is super old but the one is Johnathan and the only one to have died in game by taking a bullet for big boss aka naked snake
Nah, Johnathan and Johnny is different person, if it is the same person. Johnathan would Recognize Snake when they met in PO.
Meryl never had a chance with snake, foxdie or not. My guy was too busy stomping out illegal metal gears and being one of Sunny's 2 dads.
Johnny was low-key the secret everyman protagonist lol
Agree 100%!
Considering his flaws he proved himself to he a hero and a badass. HAIL JOHNNY!
Johnny's the true hero of MGS4 for sure!!
It's always been weird to me that Meryl ends up marrying Johnny, but can you imagine a universe where Emma survives and ends up marrying him instead somehow?

Dang I really wish grandpa Johnny was in mgs4. Wonder why he wasn’t included as planned.
Grandpa Johnny was also a semi Important in the original portable ops but he is sadly killed pretty late into the game
Noooooo spoilers!! I have played portable ops yet 😭 my boy…
NO! THAT IS NOT GRANDPA JOHNNY!
Meet Johnny, his son Johnny, his grandson Johnny, and his great grandson... well, you know. JOHNNY
Edit: they bought a pet rabbit named Johnny
I absolutely adore the story of Johnny. A three-game-spanning meme becomes one of the key heroes of MGS4 and it couldn’t come in a more charming or adorkable package.

Playable Johnny in mgs4 would have worked better with the anxiety system.
Oh yeah!! Instead of getting knocked out or whatever when stress is too high you can poop your pants 😂
‘Johnny’s incompetence knows no bounds’ 😂 Yeah that’s about right
Right?? its why we love him 😂
@@luffiewebster I think they did Johnny dirty though if I’m honest.

his incompetence and his incontenence - Caddicarus
Top Meryl and Bottom Johnny 😂
He just like me fr

I can so see the similarities between Johnny and Neville haha I’d never thought about that before but Johnny really is the Neville of MGS!
1:11 and this is why we can’t get upset at MGS1 Snavid for his patronising tone towards Meryl 🤣 ❤️
I want Grandpa Johnny and Johnny to both rush to the bathroom during the random
Well Johnny is only in more games than solid snake if u count his grandpa. That’s two different characters. Why not combine BB and Solid Snake since they’re both Snake?
Shhh shhh shhh... Let me cheat the numbers a lil bit (that's a good point tho haha combining Johnny and his grandpa would be like combining BB and Snavid)
1:32 "...has a wife and son, named Johnny".
Wait if johnny (from mgs1) was a genome soldier How did he cure his acellerate aging?
By... Shitting... A lot maybe?
Haha! That's the secret to anti aging.... I don't think the genome soldiers have accelerated aging tho. That was a Les Enfant Terrible special haha
Wait if he's a genome soldier does that mean he is also a snake?! No wonder he ended up with Meryl I mean tbf he did look like a really young and dashing Snake when his face was revealed I guess it makes sense now he prolly has some Snake genes in him
all the things to pass on to Grandpa johnny passed diarrhea
poor Johnny.... 😂
"Snavid" is a such a silly thing to call him... but I kinda dig it. lol
Also, it's been fun playing with this lore. I've been working on a MGS2 spoof radio play story using AI voices and Johnny plays a pretty important role in the first act. Was so much fun searching online for pooping noises, lol
Haha! Pooping noises are required when doing anything Johnny related 😂
this is when the NPC has become the hero !
I Always loved immature but kind characters with some sort of problem AND you find them in every game ,like Hurk From Far Cry or Johnny!
Me too!! I love goofy characters like Johnny too
Are you calling him Snavid? I'm asuming the others are Snohn, Sneeli, & Snorge? Let's not forget about Snack... I like Snack. What about Snou (V)? Get it because he's you...
Ok I never thought of the other snakes like this before this is hilarious
So Johnny’s family is just as important as Snake to the plot
Only games he hasn’t been in the msx metal gear 1 and 2 games.
He has a great heart and a terrible stomach
Why can't I help but read his name as Johnny Sneak? Such an everyman legend
Yoooooo Johnny is the best, can’t wait to see him again
Johnny is the true main hero
As someone with chrones I love Johnny 🧡👌 anyone can be a hero
Took me far too long to figure out you were saying snavid but thats pretty funny. Really cool timing on the video too since I just started mgs5 for the first time
haha! I was hoping my saying Snavid wasn't too confusing haha And awesome!! Let me know how you like MGSV!!
Amazing seeing a girl talking about a game that’s one of my favorites you just earned a new sub
Thank you for subbing!!
Thanks for explaining im getting into the MGS lore!
I'm happy to! Let me know if you have any questions about anything and I can make a video about it!
kojima probably set up Johnny to be the next main character if there is going to be any game that take place after MGS4 since only Johnny and Meryl are still in the military life while pretty much all other character retired after MGS4..

Johnny IBS

The anti Armstrong theory is pretty good
Confidence
Armstrong ✓
Johnny ×
One liners
Armstrong ✓
Johnny ×
It just gets deeper
Killed johnny mgs3? Time paradox.
You know that you don't necessarily have to kill the enemy soldiers to beat the game, right?
Johnny should not have gotten Meryl, I said it
i have ibs too
wait MGR:R is the only game jhonny dosnt appear in?
How come sometimes you say Solid Snake but other times you say "Snavid (Snake +David)"? Sounds like "la li lu le lo" instead of the "Patriots" lol
This is an older video of mine at this point, so I was probably worried people wouldn’t know I was talking about Solid Snake when I said Snavid haha nowadays I pretty much exclusively call him Snavid tho! Do you call Solid Snake Snavid too?
@luffiewebster actually, you're the first person I've heard call him that lol
When did you come up with that idea?
I actually read people were calling him Snavid in forums and thought the nickname was so cute that it stuck with me!
