You can tell when Greg writes about an *actual* person if: 1. They have a full name despite being a side character 2. Greg describes/complains about them in gratuitous detail 3. The character has no purpose to the story and never appears after his description/complaint.
I was reminded of how in The Truman Show, when he tried to cross the bridge, Truman gets stopped by a policeman (i think) who calls him by his first name without ever meeting him.
It reminds me of the Don't Hug me I'm Scared TV series when Warren sings a terrible song about a "kid he knew" and accidentally uses "me" at some points in the story. Of course, that show is smart and that is used to show Warren is a sad little man.
That's interesting. Daniel specifies that Julia is 18, then says that they've had sex. It's almost as if Greg forgot that Daniel is *4 years younger* than Julia, and not a 40 year-old man named Greg.
He (thinks he) knows what the word savior means, and he (thinks he) knows what the word complex means. Put them together, and you get what Greg thinks he is: a complex (technically right but in the worst possible way) savior (not even close)
I'm still sticking to the theory that he writes the entire book using 'Greg' and goes through it later changing the characters name, but sometimes he just fails.
Dwight: "Dwighf who's dwighf?" Pam: "what I think happened is that Michael wrote out the character as Dwight and used word search to change the name but word search doesn't work on misspelled words"
Oh, I _know_ that's what he did. I do that a lot in my writing (sometimes I'll change a character's name after I've already written all the parts they're in because I'm so indecisive). The difference is, he doesn't care enough to actually read back through it and make sure he didn't miss any. I absolutely love writing-it's like therapy for me-so every time I see Greg do something like that I want to tear my hair out :/
"Because Greg" is honestly the best way to describe anything that happens in these books. Why are women only ever described by the size of their breasts? Because Greg. Why is an 11 year old almost six feet tall? Because Greg. Why is an 11 year old getting laid in extreme graphic detail? Because Greg. Why does the main character come across as a budding sociopath? Becaaaaaaaaause Greg.
Crazy how Daniel, an 11 year old, is 5' 10". What a coincidence too, because Onision is also 5' 10". Haha, that's so strange, what a cool coincidence haha.
I'm a painter with uncomfortably shaky hands, even I have an easier time doing my thing than he does writing, even though I sometimes physically cannot paint.
Not only is Dante's inferno about the tormentous nightmare of hell but it's also basically self-insert bible fanfiction which is tonally very on-brand for onion boy
God the last half of this book literally just feels like kids playing with action figures like "well I summon GOD 2 GODS SECOND HALF and he DECAPITATES YOU!" "well I GET REALLY BIG and i PUNCH YOU INTO SPACE AND YOU DISINTEGRATE"
It just reads like that kid who was always like "I blocked it with my force field" on the playground wrote this in crayon on printer paper to show off to his "friends" just how smart he is.
The difference being that JRPGs are fun. The only thing remotely fun about Greg is that he’s such a massive fuck up who fails at everything and it’s hilarious because he deserves it 🤣
Saying you’re paralyzed once is fine, reiterating it with ‘unable to escape’ is a bit redundant but acceptable, but saying it about 4-5 times in one paragraph makes it sound less like an actual problem and more like he fell into 2 feet of water, can’t swim, and splashed around screaming about his own mortality for 3 minutes before someone finally convinces him to just stand up.
Ironically, individual plotlines/concepts in this book sound really interesting. Alien experimentation? Being able to sense death? Hacking the universe? Hunting and killing a pack of serial murderers? Killing gods? A coming-of-age story about a child with a dysfunctional family who seeks comfort in an inappropriate relationship with an older girl? All of these ideas can and do work in various books/movies/games, but not all once in a novella, and not by someone with so little self-awareness and knowledge of writing.
@@tigercors3308 sadly the author is an insane person and there is just no way he will ever acknowledge that he is just human that can be wrong at times and he won't ever accept that he is bad at writing.
Greg gives me the vibe of he's atheist not even because he doesn't believe in God or believes in science or something different, but only because he believes that he is so overwhelmingly superior to any other being on the planet that there is no possibility of a deity or higher being existing that is not himself.
This!! I was like… so she’s been dead since before the Bible was written. Then how did Daniel take so long to be born. Why to this random family? Does this make him a product of in*est r*pe??? (Since God was her brother and he violated her?) And why doesn’t she have a name 😭 It’s so much
@@siremestir Something about his physical body being born recently but the stone in his head that gave him powers was created by Kull's daughter before she got murked, which I'm not sure it was explained why the stone got put in his head in the first place??? It's just a big mess
My guess is that he originally wrote the book with his own name, and then in the editing stage replaced all the Gregs with Daniels but then forgot a few. Literal Megamind genius 4000 IQ
i think he still basically did a self insert and just wrote a different name so it wouldn’t be obvious but then forgot a couple of times as he was writing
@@85_rat_moon I would also like to note, Greg has had so many name changes it’s ridiculous, scrambling his name to be Greg, Jackson, Gregory, Jason, etc. Most of the time just doing kind of a name remix where he changes around the order or the form.
Summary of books by Onision Book 1: Edgy Narcissist fails at writing an edgy narcissist white knight whose m’lady has zero reaction to surviving the deadliest school shooting ever. Book 2: Edgy Narcissist fails at writing the life of an edgy atheist narcissist who goes to war and dies while protecting two objects that resemble women. Book 3: Edgy Narcissist fails at writing an edgy narcissist who has lame super powers and finally gives himself the powers that match his god complex. Also like aliens and god and stuff Overall summery: Edgy Narcissist can’t write good books and can’t stop inserting himself into his forsaken stories. Edgy Narcissist also needs to go to a mental hospital and meet a woman he hasn’t groomed to understand the concept of human beings with only xx chromosomes.
Don't forget the -statutory rape- "Getting Laid" scene in book 3 between Edgy Narcissist *E L E V E N Y E A R O L D* and a sixteen year old and having said girl become his girlfriend throughout the rest of the book.
*Summary of* -books by- *Onision* -Book 1:- *Edgy Narcissist fails* -at writing an edgy narcissist white knight whose m’lady has zero reaction to surviving the deadliest school shooting...-
Someone needs to write the horror story of the child trying to escape the abusive parent, but their parent has the innate ability to know where they are at all times, and it eventually devolves into a do-or-die situation because there's no escape.
I hate Greg’s writing so much and all of his books are basically the same. Heres all the books in a nutshell. Boy with parent issues who has a problem with Christianity and thinks they’re smarter than everyone, and have the biggest god complex you will ever see/read. Who has violent tendencies meets a girl who leans to the main character (the boy) for emotional support because they’re abused by their parent, and so the boy and girl get together. The girl is pretty much written to just be there for them to get together, but that would be wrong, so the boy has some emotional attachment, but in a really toxic way. He likes her and gets together with her, but ya know how dare she have her own life cause why would woman do that. Than the girl is put in some sort of trouble, and the boy saves her, normally in a form of a badly written fight scene, and the rest of the book is about how great the boy is. The guy the entire time the boy being Greg, and written in the same way every single fuckin time.
Here’s my little theory: Onion boy writes his books with his actual name is place of the main character’s (complete self insert) then after it’s completed he searches for the word “Greg” and changes it to whatever the “main character’s” name ends up being. That’s why sometimes other characters will call the main character “Greg” out of nowhere. Those are the ones he‘s missed and didn’t get changed since no one proofreads or really edits these books...
apparently, homies like you who kinda disliked Christianity and religion but doing sensible, ethical and normal things are more acceptable by the Abrahamic God rather than believers who do shit way worse than the blue-eyes in '42 and Onision not only be rejected by the Abrahamic God...even Satan or any Chaotic, Neutral, and Lawful gods and spirits will reject that awful excuse of an amalgamation of edginess, even Nietzcshe and Poe look in disgust
His books makes me wanna write his stories, but like actually good, but that imply that I'd have to actually read the books properly and i can't bring myself to do that.
if you dont want to do that KrimsonRogue here on TH-cam has read every one of his books and goes into detail about what the fuck is wrong with it.....hope that helps, i only suggest him because he say by holding and reading a bad example of a book then other would be authors wouldnt make the same mistakes...
You can't really though, because it's practically impossible without completely rewriting them from the ground up, and at that point you might as well write your own story. Not to mention, with this particular book, we have pretty much two completely independent stories. The first half is about a kid who seems to gain psychic powers, can see death as a glow and would get involved in a long-standing serial murder case, while the second half is about a literal demigod who is completely unrelated to the kid from the first half reshaping the world and then fighting the Judeo-Christian god. You can either have a thriller about a teenager with powers getting entangled in a serial-killer case, or a godling awakening their powers and reshaping the world, potentially messing up, and the world's reactions to it. Each of those can be a nice story, but if you try to put them together, it is never going to work. In some ways, I have to say that Greg is amazing. I mean, he managed to successfully create an anti-premise, a premise that can never be made good. That requires quite a bit of anti-talent.
Fourth time isn’t Either; Icelandic Supreme Overlord Morges already got a hold of a few chapters from his *FOURTH* book; surprise surprise it’s completely awful.
You know, Greg's actual life could legitimately make a pretty creepy thriller novel or something. But he's not going to write that because he'd have to be the villain in it, and that's too much for his ego.
@@gec-tree8035 Right? Like, the grooming teenagers online, the creepy basement thing, the tattoo as punishment, the disturbing thirst tweets and fake mental breakdowns in an attempt to get attention, all of that is the perfect recipe for a terrifying thriller/horror villain.
@@rike1775 Right!? And he wants everyone to believe hes like 5'11 but hes just...not. also I heard from a stream by Billie I think that he sometimes wears shoes that make him taller.
yeah. for someone who touts how much better he is than religious people for not dedicating himself to a false deity, he sure loves writing himself as a god. really is telling of how narcissistic he is- he doesnt like religious because it implies someone/thing is above him and better than him, and he can't handle it.
@@saouer "Why am I an atheist? Because I don't see any evidence to support the existence of a god." "Why am I an atheist? Because I feel that the world is a lot more frightening when you think that all of this was planned by some entity" * Onision, the perfect: * "Why am I an atheist? Well, because I have my head stuck so far up my ass that I can't deal with the idea of something being better/more powerful than me!"
Wasn't the main tenant of the cult to protect the environment? Like it was just some Mother Earth-worship shit, not a lot on protecting your fellow humans but a lot on going vegan and green and stuff. I only bring this up because, judging from the wetlands in his home that he destroyed, he can't even follow his own fucking religion he started
He is about in the 99.998 percentile for height, if we presume he's 11 and a half. Only 1 in ~50,000 of boys his age are taller. If he remained in that percentile as he grew, he would be ~6'10 as an adult.
Nah I was legit 5’ 11” by 12. Just shot up like someone stepped on a rake, then never grew any taller. Edit: obv he chose this height cuz it’s his height and this is an obvious self-insert. I’m js that while improbable, some kids actually are that tall and don’t end up being gangly giants later in life.
Gotta love how Greg thinks parents should naturally know where their children are even though half the parents in his stories are abusive and horrible people who definitely shouldn't know that.
So he gives people the ability to see where their relatives are... he's just doomed abuse victims like literally. If an abused kid runs away their parents can just be like "ah yes the child is 2 miles west let's go get em"
And children who were adopted, they're going to be constantly aware of where their biological parents are. Those bioglocial parents will be aware of the children they surrendered.
And you'd think having the two main "characters" be children of abuse he'd know that... But he somehow doesn't realise that??? It makes part of me think he didn't actually have abusive parents growing up but likes the fantasy of it because it makes him a victim forever or something. It's very weird.
it truly is a unique emotion when the 14 year old boyfriend of your 18 year old daughter murders your husband, puts him in a coffin and compensates you for the lost income caused by said murder, all in the span of 2 minutes
Side note: Dante’s inferno is a part of a three book series meant to be comedy Aka Onision’s book is not only hellish painful torture. It’s also a massive joke.
divine comedy is not supposed to be a comedy in today's sense of the word back then it basically just meant "oh this story starts tragically but it has a happy ending :)" (boccaccio was the one to add 'divine' to the title after dante's death bc he thought it was amazing writing)
"Causing him to rapidly cease existing in the world as we knew it." Sounds like a fucking meme threat that I would say to my friends over a discord call.
edgy 14 year old here! my friend and i have both watched this video and had around a 1 hour long mental breakdown on discord over it. even two edgy 14 year olds can't comprehend this bullshit
I've watched multiple reviews of each of Onision's books and this third one consistently feels like I'm having a stroke within a fever dream. Every time I come away from it and it doesn't feel like I just watched a real review of a real book, I look back and it feels like something I imagined in a state of delirium.
As a student who is doing a minor in philosophy, this book sounds like Greg has tried to write a philosophical masterpiece in a narrative form, but has absolutely no idea how his own philosophy or philosophy in general works...
When I was in elementary school, we went on a field trip to some park to go outside and do some fun stuff. Me being a shy kid, had no friends. At one point we were headed to some building straight ahead on a road made of rocks. I decided to try being a cool extroverted dude and walk backwards while talking to a girl that was behind me. When I tried to turn back around I fell square on my face onto a bed of stone. While I lay there in pain, every adult and fellow student proceed to walk past me as if nothing happened. By the time I got up everyone already got to the building, and I slowly made my way to them, depressed and in pain. Now that story sucked, but at least it would make a better book than whatever Onision throws out into the public
And no Neil Breen because my boy Neil wouldn’t touch this with a 10 foot pole. Certainly not kill 3/2 of a god he spends the whole book saying doesn’t exist while killing 3/2’s of a god
Are you telling me he didn’t even go to a new line when writing alternating dialogue?? Every alternating dialogue line of his is in one paragraph. Jesus. He doesn’t even know the rules of a book/page layout.
he doesn’t even have proper grammar half the time… even just looking at the excerpts, i can tell he doesn’t put commas in dialogue ever & only sometimes at all. as someone who loses a lot of immersion if there’s bad grammar, i would hate reading this even if it had an okay story.
I love how Greg learned so much from his other books! He no longer goes “I’ll punch him in the face and kill him instantly,” but instead goes “I’ll punch him in the face... a lot until he instantly dies.” You can really tell how much research of different martial art forms he did before sitting down and writing the fight scene. I can’t wait to see what the next “I punch him until he dead” fight scenes he comes up with in his next book!
Strange Aeons: "This is clearly written to be his reflections from the future looking back, but he's so immature and deluded that it just turns to horseshit!" KappaKaiju: "This is obviously meant to be his thoughts at the time of occurrence, but he's so overly verbose and faux-intellectual that he sounds like a complete loser!"
Greggy would probably see this as a compliment that his book is just so “complex,” but really if you can’t tell the tense of the writing that’s like the biggest thing that can make or break a book.
Two people, at least one with an English degree, not being able to find out what fucking tense this book is in is truly the most apt criticism of Greg's writing.
Me the entire time: "Wait, isn't he eleven?" If he had just shifted the ages up like 4 years it would make so much more sense. But such is the mind of Greg, too big for us normal minds to comprehend
Like the relationship with the older woman would still be statutory in most places, but it would have been 100% less squicky. As portrayed, I can't justify it in anyway. Not even the stupid fetishy way in those dark corners of the 'Net.
"Sharp jawline, acne on my face, bushy eyebrows, and abnormally tall for an 11-year-old." Considering this was written by Onision, something tells me that he didn't come up with that line just for the book
Greg be like “I am 7 years old and 7’9” and have a face chiselled by gods and a shredded 30 pack but my hair is brown and that’s very boring so I’m clearly totally normal”
I would love to see a character that has that ability to "see behind the curtains" and view reality as code... but who can't read code. Like they're a total math/IT/sciences noob and they have these amazing powers but can't do anything with them. Maybe they learn to read and write it a bit over the course of the story, so they start to become able to alter reality little by little. Hey, this might make a good educational game
i know most people say this as a joke but i genuinely do not believe this was edited. this is the first draft. there are an abundance of mistakes and things easy to catch it revision.
This book was in fact "edited", to some extent, as evidenced by the few "Gregs" he left in the book from when he went back and changed the character's name to Daniel 😂
Man if only Greg himself and/or his spouse had that power for parents to locate their children. Maybe they would’ve known their daughter fell from a second story window sooner. Edit: holy shit you guys liked this comment ty
I love the whole "above average height" thing because in reality Greg is a manlet... (No hate to my short kings, I just find Grunk's narcissistic insecurity projections funny)
I’m 6’’5 and it’s not all it’s cracked up to be. If you’re as skinny as I am, you just look awkward and out of place wherever you go. I fall down harder, I bump my head easier. Greg thinks being tall is like Homer Simpson’s fantasy about being a gold-plated giant. I really want manlets to understand that an extra few inches won’t solve their deep-seated insecurities.
I read somewhere that he wrote this book as a “joke” so reviews like this would be like “ha, egg on YOUR FACE,,, not mine!” But the saddest thing is, it’s literally just like his other writing.
Tbh he probably had the idea for this as an 'actual' book, saw yhe reviews of the other ones, and thought he could totally make this into a joke... which he did, but the joke is on him. Only difference to his other books is they're younger and aliens

@@crustykeycap5670 Nope, Atheism is a simple lack of belief in a god or gods. Theres no emotional connection there, no more so than to any other fictional villain. Theres not even really any need to activly believe that Gods dont exist, just not hold any belief in genaral. Also, Agnostic and Atheistic views are two different things. Agnostic is a knowledge claim, so I don't KNOW if a god or gods exist, while Atheism is a BELIEF claim, so I don't BELIEVE that a god or gods exist. As such, you can be an agnostic Theist, an agnostic atheist, a gnostic theist or a gnostic atheist
This seems like an alternate time line of Empress Theresa, where instead of HAL going into a good Catholic girl, he went into a raging misogynistic atheist
What i meant was it sounded a lot like the crazy power fantasy crap i would write when i was little. Complete with the "and then i got all the super powers and was super hot and became god" shtick. Although the whole hating women and daddy issues is uniquely greg flavored.

The little video gags for your random little movements are my favorite part. Clapping your hands was to kill a fly, pointing at the screen was hitting the button for a close up. Is good.
On the anime coment: Jotaro's physical appearance, though stupidly buff and completely ridiculous for a 17 year old (edit since some people aren't getting it: I am referring to how absolutely jacked he is, not his height), makes sense within the context of the series because everyone in part 3 is stupidly buff. I feel like what Onision did was the exquivilant of taking part 3 Jotaro and sticking him in part 5 without changing the art style
Not really that ridiculous a 17 year old is practically an adult most people reach or are very close to full height at 17. Being 6'5 and jacked is unrealistic in the sense that very few people are like that, but just because its rare doesn't mean it doesn't happen.
I was 6'5 at 17. Considering his lineage, both his grandfather and great grandfather were Absolute Units it's not really surprising he got that tall. Like I said I'm that tall, but like most of my cousins and stuff dont even crack 6 ft. Being ridiculously jacked is a little bit much tho but apparently he works out
I'm a little surprised that a lot of people seemed to focus on the height instead of him having the physic of a body builder. But hey, he is tall I guess :/

Summary of books by Onision
Book 1: Edgy Narcissist fails at writing an edgy narcissist white knight whose m’lady has zero reaction to surviving the deadliest school shooting ever.
Book 2: Edgy Narcissist fails at writing the life of an edgy atheist narcissist who goes to war and dies while protecting two objects that resemble women.
Book 3: Edgy Narcissist fails at writing an edgy narcissist who has lame super powers and finally gives himself the powers that match his god complex. Also like aliens and god and stuff
Overall summery: Edgy Narcissist can’t write good books and can’t stop inserting himself into his forsaken stories. Edgy Narcissist also needs to go to a mental hospital and meet a woman he hasn’t groomed to understand the concept of human beings with only xx chromosomes.
Don't forget the -statutory rape- "Getting Laid" scene in book 3 between Edgy Narcissist *E L E V E N Y E A R O L D* and a sixteen year old and having said girl become his girlfriend throughout the rest of the book.

Someone needs to write the horror story of the child trying to escape the abusive parent, but their parent has the innate ability to know where they are at all times, and it eventually devolves into a do-or-die situation because there's no escape.
Genius.
That genuinely is a fantastic idea for a story
Why is the first thing I thought the Terminator movies?
They know where the parent is at all times too though, so this seems like a fun game of cat and mouse where the kid Home Alones the parent to death
This is just the Promised Neverland
I hate Greg’s writing so much and all of his books are basically the same. Heres all the books in a nutshell.
Boy with parent issues who has a problem with Christianity and thinks they’re smarter than everyone, and have the biggest god complex you will ever see/read. Who has violent tendencies meets a girl who leans to the main character (the boy) for emotional support because they’re abused by their parent, and so the boy and girl get together.
The girl is pretty much written to just be there for them to get together, but that would be wrong, so the boy has some emotional attachment, but in a really toxic way. He likes her and gets together with her, but ya know how dare she have her own life cause why would woman do that.
Than the girl is put in some sort of trouble, and the boy saves her, normally in a form of a badly written fight scene, and the rest of the book is about how great the boy is.
The guy the entire time the boy being Greg, and written in the same way every single fuckin time.

Onision learned Everything he knows from Tiktok.
onion boy’s characters are all named after him because he finds it difficult to put himself in the shoes of anyone else.
Nice pfp ngl
best explanation
Hit the nail on the head
Of course, he's too focused on himself. After all, what's more interesting than Greg?!
Here’s my little theory: Onion boy writes his books with his actual name is place of the main character’s (complete self insert) then after it’s completed he searches for the word “Greg” and changes it to whatever the “main character’s” name ends up being.
That’s why sometimes other characters will call the main character “Greg” out of nowhere. Those are the ones he‘s missed and didn’t get changed since no one proofreads or really edits these books...

You can't really though, because it's practically impossible without completely rewriting them from the ground up, and at that point you might as well write your own story. Not to mention, with this particular book, we have pretty much two completely independent stories. The first half is about a kid who seems to gain psychic powers, can see death as a glow and would get involved in a long-standing serial murder case, while the second half is about a literal demigod who is completely unrelated to the kid from the first half reshaping the world and then fighting the Judeo-Christian god. You can either have a thriller about a teenager with powers getting entangled in a serial-killer case, or a godling awakening their powers and reshaping the world, potentially messing up, and the world's reactions to it. Each of those can be a nice story, but if you try to put them together, it is never going to work.
In some ways, I have to say that Greg is amazing. I mean, he managed to successfully create an anti-premise, a premise that can never be made good. That requires quite a bit of anti-talent.
> God has three parts
> Greg's clone kills the second half
> Second half
> Second HALF of THREE

So he gives people the ability to see where their relatives are... he's just doomed abuse victims like literally. If an abused kid runs away their parents can just be like "ah yes the child is 2 miles west let's go get em"
And children who were adopted, they're going to be constantly aware of where their biological parents are. Those bioglocial parents will be aware of the children they surrendered.
And you'd think having the two main "characters" be children of abuse he'd know that... But he somehow doesn't realise that???

"I didn't find Mara attractive"
Wow, Greg really thinks he's too good for the goddess of love and compassion.
“An amulet of Mara? You’re looking for marriage then?”
he also thinks he's too good for a giant schlong in a chariot
Are you telling me he didn’t even go to a new line when writing alternating dialogue?? Every alternating dialogue line of his is in one paragraph. Jesus. He doesn’t even know the rules of a book/page layout.
@Matilda Ryder the hubris it must take for him to write a book while also taking pride in not reading in two decades makes me want to weep.
he doesn’t even have proper grammar half the time… even just looking at the excerpts, i can tell he doesn’t put commas in dialogue ever & only sometimes at all. as someone who loses a lot of immersion if there’s bad grammar, i would hate reading this even if it had an okay story.
I love how Greg learned so much from his other books! He no longer goes “I’ll punch him in the face and kill him instantly,” but instead goes “I’ll punch him in the face... a lot until he instantly dies.” You can really tell how much research of different martial art forms he did before sitting down and writing the fight scene. I can’t wait to see what the next “I punch him until he dead” fight scenes he comes up with in his next book!
I forgot this dude existed.
as should everyone.
Onision or Kappa?
His alcoholism will kill him early so I don't think we'll have to work too hard to purge him from memory in most of society
thought you were talking about kappa for a second lol
Strange Aeons: "This is clearly written to be his reflections from the future looking back, but he's so immature and deluded that it just turns to horseshit!"
KappaKaiju: "This is obviously meant to be his thoughts at the time of occurrence, but he's so overly verbose and faux-intellectual that he sounds like a complete loser!"
Greggy would probably see this as a compliment that his book is just so “complex,” but really if you can’t tell the tense of the writing that’s like the biggest thing that can make or break a book.
Two people, at least one with an English degree, not being able to find out what fucking tense this book is in is truly the most apt criticism of Greg's writing.
Me the entire time: "Wait, isn't he eleven?"
If he had just shifted the ages up like 4 years it would make so much more sense. But such is the mind of Greg, too big for us normal minds to comprehend
Like the relationship with the older woman would still be statutory in most places, but it would have been 100% less squicky.
As portrayed, I can't justify it in anyway. Not even the stupid fetishy way in those dark corners of the 'Net.
@Matilda Ryder hes just a growing boy
"Sharp jawline, acne on my face, bushy eyebrows, and abnormally tall for an 11-year-old."
Considering this was written by Onision, something tells me that he didn't come up with that line just for the book
Greg be like “I am 7 years old and 7’9” and have a face chiselled by gods and a shredded 30 pack but my hair is brown and that’s very boring so I’m clearly totally normal”
It’s like Onionboy finished watching Devilman:Crybaby and said “YeAh, I CAn dO ThAt.”
Welp, you can't say he didn't succeed at the 'Crybaby' part.
Don’t do my boy Akira like that-
At least Devilman: Crybaby is entertaining lmao
devil man sucks tho
Don't insult devilman like that
I would love to see a character that has that ability to "see behind the curtains" and view reality as code... but who can't read code. Like they're a total math/IT/sciences noob and they have these amazing powers but can't do anything with them. Maybe they learn to read and write it a bit over the course of the story, so they start to become able to alter reality little by little.
Hey, this might make a good educational game
That sounds cool as shit ot a person able to warp reality having to learn how to do it
Holy hell. Yes, fund this project!
That's straight up Monika from DDLC.
YES OMG
This just sounds like a really unorthodox awakening for a Virtual Adept in Mage: the Ascension.
i know most people say this as a joke but i genuinely do not believe this was edited. this is the first draft. there are an abundance of mistakes and things easy to catch it revision.
This book was in fact "edited", to some extent, as evidenced by the few "Gregs" he left in the book from when he went back and changed the character's name to Daniel 😂
i would have to keep a tally on JUST the spelling and grammar so yeah i gotta take your side here
Onision writes like he has to meet a certain word count even though he doesnt
I mean, he does. Without that, and the enlarged letters, dude would probably have less than 70 pages or so.
Man if only Greg himself and/or his spouse had that power for parents to locate their children. Maybe they would’ve known their daughter fell from a second story window sooner.
Edit: holy shit you guys liked this comment ty
LMFAOOO
maybe his exes' parents would've been able to get their high school-aged daughters away from him
Spicy 🌶 take!
Too be fair, even GPS systems don't account for altitude...
Bold of you to assume at least one of them knew and simply did not care.
I love the whole "above average height" thing because in reality Greg is a manlet...
(No hate to my short kings, I just find Grunk's narcissistic insecurity projections funny)
This validates me. Thank you, friend.
@@left-2-write28 The shorter the king, the taller the crown, brother.
And Greg's king of shit.
GRUNK
I’m 6’’5 and it’s not all it’s cracked up to be. If you’re as skinny as I am, you just look awkward and out of place wherever you go. I fall down harder, I bump my head easier. Greg thinks being tall is like Homer Simpson’s fantasy about being a gold-plated giant. I really want manlets to understand that an extra few inches won’t solve their deep-seated insecurities.
im literally 4'11” and even *I* make fun of guys with little man syndrome
I read somewhere that he wrote this book as a “joke” so reviews like this would be like “ha, egg on YOUR FACE,,, not mine!” But the saddest thing is, it’s literally just like his other writing.
The fact people cant tell this difference just proves how bad all his books are lol
Tbh he probably had the idea for this as an 'actual' book, saw yhe reviews of the other ones, and thought he could totally make this into a joke... which he did, but the joke is on him.
Only difference to his other books is they're younger and aliens
I believe this one he wrote seriously. However, he is writing/did write a 50 Shades of Grey knockoff, which he claims is intentionally ironic.

did you HAVE to hurt me this way. did you REALLY have to subject me to this. my dinner wouldnt hurt me like this
It would if you were eating fried chicken
Fuck thank you for making me giggle like an idiot at 2:30am, making my mom come in and ask why I was making dying dinosaur noses XD
Nice comment 👍
He gives me an adorable 'best friend's older brother' vibe that makes this whole thing so much cosier to watch. :D
Yeah he seems like that dude that shows you how to play your video game right instead of running into walls like a piker.
Yeah, he seems like he would gladly teach you how to pump on his longboard
For me he seems like the cool uncle
I also get like...cool gamestop employee vibes and I'm here for it.
Funnily enough I get either cool uncle vibes or cool teacher vibes
The editing is exquisite.
My favorite parts: catching a fly, the "Somebody That I Used To Know" "NO" part, and the "click for closeup"
its the little things...
Those 3 edits alone are more entertaining than all 3 books Gregg has written
So is nobody gonna talk about the use of "Bazinga" as a euphemism for sex? 'Cause that absolutely killed me.
B a z i n g a.
Oh boy Friday night can't wait to B a z i n g a
It shows because reading this illicits the same physical response if you were hungover.
big bang theory banned episode
Bless him for delving straight into the belly of the beast once more
For our entertainment no less
Book: preaches atheist ideals the whole time
Also book: yeah but like. God IS literally real. A real thing.
And he is like an abusive father apparently.
@@crustykeycap5670 hating god or believing that god is spiteful towards people is called Maltheism (see also Misotheism or Dystheism). Believing that god does not exist and therefore does not directly affect the physical world is called Atheism.
@@crustykeycap5670 hahaha if U want people filled with hate go to the church
@@crustykeycap5670 Lol then you thought wrong boiii
I mean it might be just because i'm agnostic and not especially atheist but i'd never really felt anything towards god?
Like how can you be mad at someone you doubt/don't believe the existence of.
@@crustykeycap5670 Nope, Atheism is a simple lack of belief in a god or gods. Theres no emotional connection there, no more so than to any other fictional villain. Theres not even really any need to activly believe that Gods dont exist, just not hold any belief in genaral.
Also, Agnostic and Atheistic views are two different things. Agnostic is a knowledge claim, so I don't KNOW if a god or gods exist, while Atheism is a BELIEF claim, so I don't BELIEVE that a god or gods exist. As such, you can be an agnostic Theist, an agnostic atheist, a gnostic theist or a gnostic atheist
This seems like an alternate time line of Empress Theresa, where instead of HAL going into a good Catholic girl, he went into a raging misogynistic atheist
I wonder who would win in an epic anime battle between the two...
@@left-2-write28 It would depend on who became aware of the other first.
@@left-2-write28 I feel more like which author won a fistfight first
@@EllaAngeli now I really REALLY want to get Greg and Norman in a room together. Their egos would be so incompatible. It would be glorious.
This is the ONLY valid explanation of this book.
This reads like a child writing self-insert anime fanfiction in their notebook and just proclaiming it as a masterpiece
No, because they would have some idea as to what might actually been fun to read, this is just garbage.
Little kids aren’t pretentious, though. They DO have a lot of creativity and free time; and you can’t say that about Grog.
What i meant was it sounded a lot like the crazy power fantasy crap i would write when i was little. Complete with the "and then i got all the super powers and was super hot and became god" shtick. Although the whole hating women and daddy issues is uniquely greg flavored.
My boyfriend did that in middle school. Ouran High School Host Club, Tamaki x Kyouya, heavily featuring mpreg as a narrative. Still better than this garbage
More like a child learning what an OC is and creating a marysue, unaware their character is painful to read
The little video gags for your random little movements are my favorite part. Clapping your hands was to kill a fly, pointing at the screen was hitting the button for a close up. Is good.
On the anime coment: Jotaro's physical appearance, though stupidly buff and completely ridiculous for a 17 year old (edit since some people aren't getting it: I am referring to how absolutely jacked he is, not his height), makes sense within the context of the series because everyone in part 3 is stupidly buff. I feel like what Onision did was the exquivilant of taking part 3 Jotaro and sticking him in part 5 without changing the art style
Not really that ridiculous a 17 year old is practically an adult most people reach or are very close to full height at 17. Being 6'5 and jacked is unrealistic in the sense that very few people are like that, but just because its rare doesn't mean it doesn't happen.
I was 6'5 at 17. Considering his lineage, both his grandfather and great grandfather were Absolute Units it's not really surprising he got that tall. Like I said I'm that tall, but like most of my cousins and stuff dont even crack 6 ft.
Being ridiculously jacked is a little bit much tho but apparently he works out
I'm 5'5 at 15. I'm a girl.
@@CertifiedWeirdass inhale
that’s pretty average bruh
I'm a little surprised that a lot of people seemed to focus on the height instead of him having the physic of a body builder.
But hey, he is tall I guess :/
