"Sing a song!"
"You're...okay..."
*already sobbing* "Not that song!!
That made me laugh so bad 😂 but such a huge mood
Big same, it's just as much a sing-along as a cry-along
Rewatched it with my partner and I heard the song and immediately cried a little 🥺
@@taigatanfan_ XD Same
@@RoseMultiverse XD I so wish I could get my hubby to watch it with me, but he absolutely hates musicals.
Fun fact about horses, they actually have great memories, especially facial recognition, so all that stuff about horse forgetting rider's face, she's literally just anxious
...why? why would you tell me this?!
@@thethirdbill it's like comfortable doug said, if I'm not comfortable, no one can be
comfortable doug wants everyone to be comfortable, not equally uncomfortable lol
@@thethirdbill ehhh, i might be thinking of syndrome, or maybe ayn rand, either way whatevs
@@thethirdbill hai
This show is partly inspired by what it felt like for the creator to be put in the wrong class and meet theater kids for the first time and that never stops being funny to me.
It also puts Horse's transformation in a different perspective! That experience convinced her to pursue a career in art! In other words, an overwhelming, but ultimately good experience that left her a different person than before.
My first watch thru CW, I fell asleep a lot(not the show's fault). So, I read about it. Rewatching it with the knowledge "this is what it's like for a normal person to meet theatre kids for the first time...." Accurate. Very accurate. We seem like a whole different species, a collection of misfits, and it is TRUE. Also true that much of the goofy whimsy of theatre folk is coping with serious issues, also very true.
I will forever regret having been to introverted in high school to spend more time with the theatre kids, that's what I wanted to be, but instead I stayed home and played videogames.
Before CW: “this looks like a goofy show”
After CW: “GOD DAMMIT CENTAURWORLD!” 😭
yeah it tricked me so much ;-;
it's the successor to Adventure Time (a cute world hiding all the darkness, whiplash from fart jokes to deep trauma, eldritch goop demons) just with more ladies I always needed
Yes
Yeah, it felt like a mix of adventure time and over the garden wall
@@infinitycorps7316 yes it does
I feel like this show has heavier themes of trauma, depression, and letting go more than adventure time ever did.
@@KironX1 I mean Adventure Time tackled things like dementia, intergenerational trauma, not feeling entitled to relationships, different subjects but same kinda tone.
An implication of this show that shows up is the Shamans representing the 5 stages of grief. Whether you believe the Shaman's personalities, or the emotions Horse is feeling in that moment, it's adaptable to your thoughts. The show touches on grief a lot, so I wouldn't be surprised if this was intentional.
It parallels almost chronologically. The first shaman, Waterbaby, had Horse *denying* she was "ugly-crying". It also featured her trying to chase down Geffrey-Rider, still believing that they were together somehow. The Tree shamans were then kicked down by Horse in *anger*, followed by Horse *bargaining* their freedom through jokes to Judge Jacket the mole-taur. She also *bargains* with her tail and learns to compromise with the sudden magical addition to her body. When Horse has to win over Johnny Teatime, she sings a song of self-*acceptance*, and stops trying to resist change and begins to let herself grow as an individual. Finally, when confronting the Whaletaur, Horse is at her lowest of lows, and fears all the changes she has undergone will make her unrecognizable, and instead of dealing with her *depression*, chooses to be swallowed up by the Whaletaur.
The five stages of grief don't necessarily have to be in order, but that's how I interpreted your statement.
Wasnt the five stages of grief made for terminal illness and not like,, grief in general?
@@camarvan i think it was first observed for people who have terminal illness, but further studies of it showed that it can be applied in other things as well such as unemployment or (trigger warning) death of a loved one
@@jeffreadscards5883 Yeah but its not the only way to experience grief and definitely shouldn't be treated that way. Which lots of people do
I would also point out that without including the seed/egg shaped key piece of Waterbaby, the other pieces all form into the shape of a hand mirror. Horse has to go on a journey of introspection and self-discovery before she is able to accept the new life that will let her return to Rider.
I never realized the design choice of the bandages on the whale shaman’s arms until you pointed it out HOLY SHIT
Holy shit indeed
Same! I feel like any tiny details could be super important! Plenty to theory craft about
God the character designs are so… simple yet detailed, is how I can describe it-
I only noticed because i figured the plot out when they arrived. I was like "Oh, i know what this is" and so i was keeping an eye on all the details.
Oh I can’t believe I only realized when you pointed this out, wow. Crazy stuff and whale shaman never fails to make me at least a bit emotional
Renee Elise Goldsberry AKA Angelica from Hamilton is the voice of Waterbaby the Hippotaur Shaman and its important to me that everyone knows
THAT WAS RENEE??
No wonder her voice was my favorite
OMGG HOW DID I NOT NOTICE, thank you so much for sharing!!!
I'm ashamed for not noticing
REALLY Wow I knew she had range but she has RANGE
ye, and Horse is Kimiko Glenn, Dawn in Waitress, Rider is Jessie Mueller, Jenna in Waitress, and the human lady is Lea Salonga, the singing voice of Mulan and Jasmine
"Does horse have PTSD? I'm not a professional, links in the description." Really got me for some reason
You could say that the moon in this show is… “mooning” them
boooooooooooo lol
“Sing a song!”
“Sad song starts”
“NOT THAT SONG”
I agree that I love how even though Centaurworld IS wacky and fun and colorful, everyone feels real. Even down to the secondary characters, who I feel like could easily bleed into each other(especially in the first couple episodes), are fairly distinct. Zulius being the obvious example here. He’s not just oblivious and random, he’s self absorbed and dramatic. But he’s also a team player who in the absence of Horse or Wammawink, is the one to point out when somethings wrong. He also is older than and has more experience in the world than the other secondary characters. And he’s had one episode where he was a focus character! I hope at least a couple of the others get a focus episode in the series going forward.
Yeah thats what i love about shows like this. There is a special place between straight up serious and goofy cartoon logic antics. Centaurworld strikes that pretty much perfectly. I can't remember another show that did so well. Other stuff tends to go too far into one side, usually wackiness or just doesn't delve deep enough into the themes that give it substance.
It reminds me a little of Winnie the Pooh, though especially Pooh's Grand Adventure.
I need an episode for Glendale and specially Durpleton to know more of their past
I love the gradual emotional degeneration that this show causes. Everyone I've shown it to has broken down near the end and it's just sooo gooood
Also, I think you'd be interested in knowing that the creator talked about how this show was inspired by her accidentally being put into Show Choir in high school. She had a rigorous academic plan, and wound up in this goofy club where people make jokes and sing songs, and it changed her life.
I cried the first time at the 2nd episode and ugly cried at episode 8. This show is great.
My dude, I was sobbing during Rainbow Road in the first episode.
Okay I love this backstory!
I'm so obsessed with this show, if we don't get a season 2 I will live a sad and unfulfilled life lol.
It has the same energy as Trigun where it starts so random and silly and then it just goes off the deep end with the lore. Plus the Over the Garden Wall vibes are so strong, I need to make my friend watch it with me soon.
OMFG YES! Tri-gun is exactly this.
They still have ten episodes that are yet to be released, so a technical season two. I just hope more people watch once season two is out because it deserves so much more love and even more seasons.
Honestly if this was all we got I'd be content, it was a solid season of a show.
@@purrpletiger2159 I wouldn't, it was a beginning after all, not an end. I am so sick of good shows dying as they begin. This story just got started and while i don't need it to be a long running show i do need it to pay off some of that setup.
@@Merilirem It paid off on the journey of Horse getting back to Rider at least, that was the initial goal and I like that they resolved that. Honestly tho I think the Nowhere King was a bit underwhelming and it would be good to see more about that character.
“Sing a song”
“Not that song”!!
I know that song just makes me tear up!
If they sing that in season 2, I will be a mess!
Well, there’s a young Glendale VA listed and she was Nowhere king goop in her so 😰
If you want your heart torn apart even more then there is something that a different commenter mentioned about baby WammaWink.
They pointed out the fact that the wool she packs doesn't match the colour of her own wool.
@@sillyface6950 🤯
Ohhhhhhboy…
Dude I need this. It's just more satisfying to cry with someone while watching the show. 😅
Your theory about the woman and the Nowhere King having had a Rider-Horse relationship before is spot-on. I got the same vibe from "Nothing Good" and from their confrontation later on.
In the song, she sings that love "kills and betrays." I don't think this necessarily means the Nowhere King betrayed her. But I think her love for him is what created their situation.
I think her "Horse" must have died, and she travelled to Centaurworld to find a way to bring him back, which is how she acquired magic. Except her plan didn't work out, and she accidentally created a monster.
So when the Nowhere King says that she has come to free him, I sort of got the feeling that he wanted to be freed from existence.
Same with the last part. He showed his neck, a vulnerable spot, knowing she could stab him
Part of me wonders if she’s actually talking about herself when she says love kills and betrays. Maybe she considers whatever she did to make Nowhere King so goopy a betrayal on her part, and she’s so harsh on the main crew because her disgust with herself makes her lash out. She’s decided that they’re making the same sentimental mistakes she did.
Behind the throne he goes to at the end,theres a drawing in the back of a centuar and a woman .
I think he used to be a normal centuar (a more human one,like Zulius) and was possibly in love with the woman with the purple hair? But something happened and caused him to turn into that creature,possibly being hee fault
Or like, Nowhere King got sent to Centaurworld, changed like Horse did, but instead of accepting it, used magic to try to change them back, only it failed horribly
I was thinking maybe when the two worlds got separated (since centaurs fought along side humans as allies) her steed got trapped between and the nothingness basically corrupted him.
Choosing a whale for that metaphor was beautiful because death has that duality of being horrifying and, in a strange way, beautiful and whales and the ocean are both a beautiful thing and terrifying when you're spending more time thinking about of and how s*cide is idealized in some people's minds and they can't see another way out and the people who can see so much more and can't stand the thought. Even Sunfish's arcade being a distraction, but not a solution. I didn't even think about her bandages on her wrists until you mentioned it, I just thought they were a pretty addition to her design and not the tragedy that it could be connected to. Really, that entire episode had a lot of balance in the topic of death/s*cide might have in real life.
I had a friend who eventually chose the whale. I know very well how Sunfish feels, they absolutely nailed it.
Me in the start of the show: oh it's weird and cute i love it
Me in the end: why am i here? just to suffer?
I've never had a show that whiplashes so hard between absolutely hilarious moments, with either utterly terrifying or incredibly dark ones so much, but still pulls it all together. There's barely a few minutes between Rider and Horse about to be drowned in evil goop, and "Are those you friends?" *cue the Friends theme*
Or another example, the same episodes contains "Wammawink as a merman mpreg fetish" and also, the fucking Whaletaur Shaman.
Just something fun I wanna throw out, if you go back to the Mystery Woman's song, there's a blink and you'll miss it moment where you can actually see Glendale swiping the key from her.
It's ironic that you say you've been living under a rock when you're the first person I've seen to fully cover this show.
I'm here one month later and I still haven't seen anyone on TH-cam do anything else yet
My current theory is that the Nowhere King is both the result of and represents abandonment, but I don't know that I can explain it very well. 😅
Oh I agree 100%
i hope i was clear about it when i discuss it in the video and it helped in some way!
You nailed it.
@@arglebargle23fnord yes and no, haha. I'd say more accurately that he's an example of self hatred taken to a severe extreme. Literally trying so hard to kill the part of you you don't like, and failing that, willing to doom the entire world just to keep punishing yourself. It's honestly so much worse than I could have imagined it to be when I started this show
@@tomsparrow1823 Yeah, I did kinda drastically over-simplify and miss the big point. Too excitable post-S2.
Centaurworld: It Gets Worse Than You Can Imagine! ... This is why I'm not in marketing.
Rewatching this and just realized that, during her song in the Whaletaur episode, horse has her old appearance,: animation style, armor and all. Like...that's still how she thinks of herself and pictures herself internally.
I’m trans and I was getting really bothered by how enthusiastic her found family is about changes that are clearly super dysphoric for her.
I hadn't considered the possibility that The Nowhere King may have been the Mystery woman's horse. Maybe the had a similar experience but that horse landed in a darker place, and just like our horse, slowly assimilated into the world and gain dark powers.
Deer I think. Looks more like a dear skull with antlers than a horse skull. The very last frame in the show is focused on wall art depicting a woman that resembles that sorceress with possibly a deertaur.
@@taylorfry4947 Just had my second full watch through yesterday. I think you might be right there. Maybe she tried to bring magic over to the human world, and it became corrupted, like the reverse of Horses transformation. Which is why she can do magic, but it seems kinda raw. And maybe the deertaur helped but became corrupted too?
@@slakinof a lot of ppl (including me) theorize that the (currently) unnamed human (witch?)married a centaur,and that deertaur was the Nowhere king before he got corrupted,hence the title:Nowhere KING
Her and the centaur were the queen and king of a kingdom on the human world,and their love was what brought peace to both centaurs and humans,in the lyrics of the song Nothing good (the human's song) she talks about being betrayed by love:"LOVE is a spark,cast into water (...)it shines trough the dark burns ever hotter,then KILLS and BETRAYS". And about how the ppl that you love the most are often the true monsters:"sometimes the ones we love the most have the worst things to hide,sometimes the monsters turn out to be those who stood there by your side".
This gives us an idea of what her relationship with the Knowhere king could be,she loved him,he hid dark secrets and intentions from her,and when she discovered what of a monster he was it was too late,she cursed him (maybe)trapped him in the in between and managed to get to centaurworld and escape,maybe wathever he did is what caused the minotaurs to invade both worlds
@@sapphicferret9117My only criticisms of that idea (and I think it is mostly a sound theory) is I think it paints the Mystery woman in too clean of a light, I think there has to be more to it. When she paints on the mural in the Beertaur cave, she does straight up crush in her hands a Ladybugtaur with no remorse what so ever to use as paint. Also the Nowhere King says "she has come to release me" and instead of rushing for the door, gives her a clean shot for what I would assume would kill him. And I think that was genuine, so I can't see the nowhere king being purely evil and hiding it all along. I could be wrong though. She could also be speaking in double terms with her song. She could be both referring to what the Nowhere King did AND what she did in kind. They have done some great work with the reprisals of songs throughout the series and having the recontextualised, so would be interesting to see if this song makes a return in season 2. We've also only seen platonic and family love in the series so far. Or atleast nothing that has given Catradora vibes. Not saying they couldn't have been King and Queen and married etc, just interesting since we havent been given a positive example of romantic love and there is already implications of insidious romantic love.
Besides that, I mean, maybe the deetaur and the woman managed to fight off the Minotaur the first time, and then the Nowhere King released then into the human world sometime later.
I dunno, these are just my rambling thoughts now haha, but can't wait to find out where this is heading.
@@slakinof oh i definetly agree with the points you've made!And i also think there is more to it than one being bad and the other good but it was late at night when i made this comment and i was too tired to mention these scenes,its also worth mentioning that the Nowhere king said to her:"you've made me what i am today" so maybe she was the one responsible for him becoming a bloodthirst centaur in the first place?
I know for animation videos you often go to family or all-age shows, but if there's room for more mature shows, I'd like to recommend Beastars.
Now for some centaurwolrd talk/discussion! Spoilers below for folks that haven't seen the whole show.
I love how the Mystery Woman's (MW) song ends up showing Wammawink's character growth. From Glendale's interlude in the opening/title song, we learn that Centaurworld isn't free of sadness or trauma, it's just denied or hidden. Every location or group we see has their own way of dealing with the war and its aftermath- the Cattaurs explicitly say they get into pageantry to mask the devastation, the moletaurs have resorted to extreme isolationism, etc.
In that context, the bubble around the dome and Wammawink's extreme protectiveness is re-contextualized as her particular coping mechanism. She lost everyone, so now she's desperate to keep them attached to her.
Now look at the MW's lyrics: "Keep it locked up, keep it sealed tight". That's the dome, that's the codependence, that's Wammawink's strategy. And Wammawink is the character to oppose her (Think of the fragile things) and also to go into the Unknown of the portal, something directly paralleling Horse's drive for adventure that was a source of conflict between them at first.
Ohhh, I hadn't noticed this before! Thanks for pointing it out! :D
Omg🤯
I am 100% convinced the creators put the "and sometimes my facial features get kind of melty" thing in specifically to f with people who got high to watch this because they knew it would happen. Thankfully I didn't smoke weed before watching this and I very quickly realized that there would be darker twists that came up, but my older brother had decided to smoke when I showed him this show and had taken a few hits by the time that bit rolled around. It was very funny seeing his reaction.
I was actually tripping on shrooms while watching this show, which was an interesting experience. That part especially freaked me out because I didn't know where the trip visuals started and the show weirdness began hahaha
My theory is that the Nowhere King was a centaur and him and Mystery Woman where friends, possibly she was his rider, and whatever happened between them is what caused the war.
I also find really interesting that she seems to be in Centaurworld for a long time but she still looks like she is from the Human/Minotaur world
Somewhat accurate!
"Are you gatekeeping trees???" - Rare sentences that I sputtered with laughter on hearing.
Some would say everything edible is alive here too. The only ethical consumption in nature is photosynthesis. (This message is brought to you by Algae Gang)
Photosynthesis and MAGIC. And possibly magical photosynthesis
Yes but there is a great difference between alive and it can talk to you. Thats why people go down from things i can talk to until they reach things i am not even sure classify as life. There is like 3-4 maybe 5 different grades.
@@Merilirem So You would be okay eating a baby just because it doesn't talk? On the contrary there is a lot of animals smart enough to communicate in some ways, and You probably eat them at least once.
@@universalpower419 1 babies are humans. theydefinitelytalk. 2 you missed the point entirely. 3. Cannibalism is a bad idea. 4 I am a vegetarian anyway, not for moral reasons though.
I'm so glad you watched it! I've been RAVING about Centaurworld to all of my friends since it dropped! Can't wait for more!
the whale episode struck hard. i mean i think the lyrics in her song are pretty clear .... but lets not talk about it. but also the, lets call it aftermath, of horses action. how the herd is suddenly hit by that big wave resulting of it and merguy saying "i thought you know shes gonna swallow your friend" and their "no" response and then the realization that all the warning signs were there (here literally signs) but nobody picked up on them. i feel a LOT of thought went into the whole episode. well, the whole show to be honest.
ps:
also if you are struggeling talk to professionals, friends, family. you are not alone and there are people out there that are willing to listen and help.
pps: nice reaction video bill =)
"Sing a song!"
"You're okay..."
"Not that song!"
Same lol same
I absolutely adored this review! It's so lovely to get to see such an in-depth discussion of many of the themes and nuances of this show, since I feel like I've seen a lot of individuals write it off because of the "LOL RANDOM" humor it contains. Honestly though, in my mind, the comedy style perfectly juxtaposes all the darker themes that DO exist in this story.
Thank you! i wish i said it in a way that made sense (i had to cut it)...but the reality of glue foreshadowing the reality of the whale is all the proof one needs it's more than "lol random"
I think maybe the Nowhere King lullaby was heard by Horse when she first came to Centaurworld, but she was unconcious so she doesn't remember ut. She must have passed through the In-Between then too, I guess?
I theorized that song was being sung in her Horse's world somewhere. Because the Nowhere King returned to his world (in Horse's World). That means the sung was played in both worlds.
YES!
My only complaint about this show is that I wish Durpleton had more to do, I enjoy his childlike-ness but in terms of the story he doesn't do anything.
perhaps he'll get an episode in season 2 more focused on him?
Fuck the zebra Durpleton is precious
Spoiler/theory: I have a fun theory to share that no one on TH-cam has mentioned. I think the mystery sorceress and the nowhere king were married and when he died she used evil magic to bring him back turning him into the nowhere king... As a second twist I think durpleton is their secret son which would explain his very human characteristics and abandonment issues.
man i love this guy, he's not afraid to show his emotions and cry. i tend to get really emotional at poignant music or animation but i always try to tamp it down out of embarrassment. but this guy's out here just living in emotional honesty and i love that. also so glad he liked centaurworld it's such a good show
Episode 8 made me sob so hard. I’ve been struggling mentally with that fight and seeing how they addressed it was beautiful
Bill!! I never get tired of your reactions, it's pretty difficult to find such a genuine guy who cares about the content he reacts to and who actually takes the time to analyze it 💜 it'd be great if you did a trying to stan ENHYPEN, they're a monster rookie kpop group who are super talented and cute (also really young, the oldest was born in 2001 and the youngest in December 2005) I'd love to see your reaction to them 🥰✨
I’m so glad you watched this- I just finished it a few days ago and was a sobbing mess during the last three episodes but like. Also laughed so much it’s just. Gorgeous. ALSO mystery lady is voiced by the voice of both Jasmine and Mulan!
Even just watching you react and hearing the audio off screen made me cry. This show has made me cry at least 4 times. It’s really good!
When you started tearing up in episode 2, my immediate reaction was "you're fucked, good luck"
I also think that a lot of what we see is a metaphor for coping with trauma.
When you live in Survival Mode in a traumatic situation, it becomes "The Norm", and you're more comfortable with constant trauma and danger than you are with "not dangerous"-- because it's unfamiliar to you, plus the whole "waiting for the other shoe to drop" effect. But Horse goes someplace where she has love, support, and is forced to come to terms with how her "survival" mechanisms aren't good for the long term.
They show her that reckless behavior hurts more than just her, that it's okay to cry when she's frustrated, that she can be kind to others without having that taken advantage of. There's a softer part of her that slowly emerges, especially the more she embraces being anything other than War Horse; something that comes out in full when she finishes "Who Is She?" because she's finally acknowledging ALL of herself and doing some much-needed introspection.
But, when you're used to depression, when you're used to "survival mode", getting treatment and healing means changing, and change is *terrifying*. Who are you without your depression, without your survival/coping skills? Are you a different person? Will you remember what was in your life before? What if changing and being more vulnerable leads to a bigger disaster? It's why people have relapses in therapy and treatment.
But in the end, Horse finds a different kind of strength, and not only does her relationship with Rider endure DESPITE the changes ("Despite the changes, I would know you anywhere / The voice, the face, the hair might all be different / But you're still you, and all I wanna do, is hold you close again") but she's able to better communicate with her, and has new power. Knowing that despite changing so much, Horse was still Horse, she was able to finally commit to this metaphor for trauma treatment.
I mean I'm just speculating, but I feel like that's all one component in all of this, along the trans narrative and "found family" tropes.
Haven't watched the video yet but was excited to see this posted so soon after the Centaurworld music video! I know it's not a very long show, but that's still an impressive turnaround.
I think the writers were trying to make horse know of the Nowhere king well before her transportation to centaurworld that's why she knows about his lullabye, but they scrapped it and now we have a random sentence of horse 'knowing' his theme. Honestly it would have made for an interesting scene where in the human world villagers escaping the minotaurs sing that lullabye as a reminder that the nowhere king still exists and there is no surrendering or running away as the nowhere king will burn the entire world in war
I love the whiplash from "aww, collect them all!" to "What is this?! WHY WAS I MADE?! *AAAAAAAAAAHHHHHH!!!* "
I still want a season 2 episode where we find out what happens to all those tiny centaurs.
Im glad you watched and enjoyed the show. Im also happy to see more people talk about this. The show is underrated and deserves to be seen and know by a lot of people. Your commentary was literally the same reactions I had for the show.!! Ill look forward to what your tackling next in your vids!. 👌🏻😊
I know it's just shadows but I can't stop see the marks on comfortable Doug's chest as top surgery scars
Man, I just watched Centaurworld, and I didn't even realize you had reacted to it already. What a perfect follow up to watching it. It's always fun to see some other soft boy cry at the same scenes I did.
Man, I didn’t know how I felt about this show the first time I watched it. But I couldn’t get the songs out of my head. And I cried at all the same places you did. And I can’t stop thinking about this show.
21:40 "Sing a song"
Horse: "You're ok..."
"Not that song!"
Looking at this after having already watched both seasons, you were so spot on in this entire analysis. 👏🏽
staying spoiler free since this video is season 1 ... i didn't even fathom the err... triple reveal lol
As a drag queen, I can confirm that pageantry can turn people into monsters😂
Theory regarding the villain and the woman with wild hair:
When attempting to seal the doors and take the wand, she sung a song about love and how it can be both wonderful and horrible. How it can make people do horrible things.
The Nowhere King clearly knew who she was and was delighted to see her. She couldn't bring herself to kill him.
In the final scenes of the last episode of the 1st season we see the Nowhere King's slimey mass making its way to a castle in the human realm to sit on a throne. Thr camera pans up and there's a portrait of a woman resembling the woman in the show. And above that there is a massive series of carvings in the wall of centaurs and humans coming together, with a centaur man and human woman holding hands.
The two are husband and wife, and something horrible happened to make him become what he is now. And she still loves him, and sure she could talk about sealing him and keeping everyone safe that way but she couldn't bring herself to kill him. She'd rather keep both worlds separated with him sealed away than kill him because she still loves him too much to do it.
Oh I’m so happy you watched the show! I haven’t been able to stop thinking about it since I watched it. And damn, that whale episode is something I never could have imagined in a show mainly aimed at a younger audience, but I’m so glad they did. God I love this show!
You should do trying to stan City of Ghosts. It's a really charming and weirdly calming show about ghost hunters.
Several Broadway voices including 4 Tony winners: Lea Salonga, Brian Stokes Mitchell, Jessie Mueller and Megan Hilty. By the way, Lea’s name is pronounced LAY-uh (think Princess Leia). Aside from being a Broadway star, she is the only person to originate the singing voice of 2 Disney Princesses: Jasmine (“A Whole New World”) and Mulan (“Reflection”).
I'm so glad you're reviewing this show! I wasn't sure what to expect going in, but I loved it so much and can't wait for s2
ITS HERE
I went from watchin Bo Burnams Inside on a loop for 2 months and I've now watched all of Centaurworld 8 times in the past month. It's life.
*CENTAUR W-O-O-O-R*

The most honest reaction ever!
Anyone else kinda ship Horse and Wammawink, just a little bit?
Also, do you think Horse can shoot mini Horses out of her hooves after all the changes she's been through?
I thought I was the only one omg😭
I don’t think she’d do it after seeing how they all scream with existential dread 😅😂
Ok, I liked seeing your reactions and yeah, Riders lullaby is always going to tug at the heartstrings. No matter what. I never saw the resemblance between Horse and Mystery Woman, although for awhile there, I believed Mystery Woman was an older Rider. I can't wait for Season two (it has to happen, they can't just end there.)
It's hard to warn for episode 8 without really telling. It's just wow.
As for suggestions, you might like the Trollhunters of Arcadia series.
season 2 is listed on imdb
God I LOVE this show so damn much. Also fun fact about that Mysterious Woman, she’s voiced by Lea Salonga aka the singing voice of Disney’s Mulan! There’s so much amazing voice talent in this show I swear
Who’s here after season 2??????
Bill, you have validated my love of this show!!!! I felt everything you did!! Hearts and hearts!!!
You can see a mural in the background of the last episode of The Nowhere King and Mystery Woman. Nowhere King was a Deertaur and Mystery Woman was his lover. I think they had a sort of Romeo and Juliet situation and eventually for some reason The Nowhere King wanted to destroy both worlds and became the monster he is betraying Mystery Woman (hence her trauma).
Watching you get to Horse's actual "I want" song (just watched the music of video you made), and laughing as you start crying...as tears are tracking down my own face
GOD I WAS SO EXCITED WHEN I SAW THIS, I LITERALLY LOVE THIS SHOW!

- trying to Stan Joji
(Some songs - pretty boy, gimmie love, ew, yeah right, sanctuary, slow dancing in the dark, can't get over you, attention)

Okay that's it, and also anyone reading this comment should listen to these guys too cause they're awesome
Glendale: “My collection~”
Bill: searches for truffles
Trying to Stan the music of RWBY! Also loved your reaction to this-
I don't know how many times I've watched your reaction to this show, I never get tired of it
I was super pumped for this video and I am 1000% so happy with it 🥰 Centaurworld has become a comfort show for me and it makes me incredibly happy whenever someone else gets into it. 10/10 excellent content 💚
That being said, Amanda Palmer 👀 some of her stuff would make a GLORIOUS Bill video
-In My Mind
-Trout Heart Replica
-Ukulele Anthem
-Guitar Hero
-Killing Type
-The Bed Song
You know I only just realized while watching this video. Maybe it's not intentional but maybe the reason the Nowhere king tries to go to centaurworld first instead of the human world is because he doesn't care that much about the human world and the general since he knows the princess was somewhere in centaurworld and would rather track her down than finish destroying the human world
I know that you probably wont read this but thank you for bring a creator and bring open to everyone and a safe space. I love that yo are not afraid to show emotion and i know that whenever i click on one of your videos i will cheer up a little
"Oh we can have mercy when its your friend?"
S2: "Mercy? 🎶Who is she🎶"
I really hope this show gets the attention it deserves, it needs a season 2!
season 2 is listed on imdb. would have mentioned it if i thought people didn't know. sorry.
@@thethirdbill Yeah, looks like it's listed for a 2022 release, nice!
-cackles because my sister has had the Comfortable Doug song stuck in her head for a month now because every time she wakes up, she doesn't want to get up because she's COMFORTABLE, COMFORTABLE, comfortable doug-
While watching people's reactions to the more emotional stuff is always sweet.
I wont lie when I say every reaction to the *No-Where King* song put a huge grin on my face :)
Omg! Thank youuuuu
Dang this came out at a perfect time, I just finished the show a few hours ago
"I fucking love it. Fuck you"
Me literally the entire show 😂
"Wtf..right?"
"Centaur woo..."
"No, I need a minute"
Recommendation: TTS Orla Garland
- You’re not special
- More like you
- Zombie!
- Did it to myself
had to give this a like before even watching lmao super excited to see your take on this show!!
I watched this show because of your first video on it!
YESYESYES LET'S GO
Please watch Carmen Sandiego
I would also recommend it. Super light and fun and the artistry is THERE
"Give the coat to jebbrey" 😂
"It's jebbreys coat" 😮 how did I never make this connection?
I like how you put stills of the shots, it tells me you really paid attention when the funny shit was happening
"What do you eat then if the apple is alive?"
Probably still apples. This world is kind of demented.
or the giggle cakes?
I'm glad you put a warning for episode 8. It is incredibly unsettling.
My initial watch through was contrastingly fairly emotionless, though definitely nerding out about the actual production. Found your video on the music of it when trying to find more content about it, then came to this.
You had me blubbering and laughing, the whole way through. Ive also seen a Dodie one by you. You are such a beautiful person holy shit, your empathy and love is real, such amazing insight
Edit: added words lol
No joke. I don't cry and I suspect it's a hydration issue.
AND THEN I SEE CENTAURWORLD!
My sister is dealing with a break-up: I'm sad with her but no cry.
"We are fragile things...": 😭😭😭
I really needed someone to cry with me watching this show.
HYPE HYPE HYPE
MORE CENTAURWORLD CONTENT!!! I need more theories, side character analysis, geeking out about little details! Maybe episode by episode? Love this video and this show so much.
10:23 I started crying right along with you ;_;
I loved watching you react to this! I just finished binging it myself and you caught some things I missed, so it was fantastic! Whose jacket it was, the rider/horse dynamic with the NK and the magic lady; it was so much fun watching this with you!
Man was I exited to see what you thought of this show! I was honestly really shocked by it and was surprised by how much I enjoyed it! Hopefully you all enjoyed it too, have a great one 😊
My theory is that the nowhere king was a centaur. He was friends with the mysterious woman, maybe lovers, but then something terrible happened. Maybe they were looking into some sort of powerful magic that would help defeat the minotaurs, but he became corrupted by it, becoming a greater threat. So she had to trap him in between dimensions.
...wow. You somewhat got it.
