I think I know why so many TH-cam kids videos feature pregnancy. It’s because little kids think pregnancy is taboo and mature. Like, a lot of parents are weirdly cryptic about how babies are made, not wanting to give their kids “the talk” yet. So, these awful content creators know that little kids, curious about where babies come from, will click on thumbnails of their favorite characters pregnant. Really gross and creepy imo.
Yes it's still happens but not with blue anymore lasy year the digital circus one started but digital circus is a dark comedy and then Hazbin hotel an adult show thankfully these aren't for kids but doesn't mean kids don't like digital circus ect because the random youtube comments of some videos I watched told me 9 year olds enjoy hazbin hotel

100%. I was on TH-cam as a kid at the start of a lot of this ‘elsagate’ content started to come onto the platform & I myself got intrigued because they showed these ‘taboo’ topics that I was confused about. It definitely didn’t help me at all watching them though, and they only left me more confused after watching (which is probably purposeful, so the kids will watch more trying to find answers). I think parents just need to be straight up & talk about this in a correct but age appropriate way so kids won’t get curious & fall into the wrong hands. If I ever have kids I would probably go above and beyond to try & protect them from going through what I did.
I caught my younger siblings watching them once. I basically tried to distract them from it by suggesting to watch a different video. I was really confused as to why those videos existed and figured it would be best to change it.

I kinda like about how you admitted being part of the bandit crush because it makes you more relatable. Especially with how you react while showing your fanart.
I honestly feel like the Fandom has gathered to much negative reputation that it has made people who never have watched the show judge people who like the show and its pretty sad because they see it as a degenerate fandom full of weirdos but in reality the fandom is mostly kind, caring, and accepting of others. I wish that more people could see the better side of the fandom instead of focusing on the bad aspects of the fandom.
This is a tale as old as time, unfortunately. For as long as fandoms have existed, if it gets large enough, weird stuff starts coming out of it and outsiders only see the weird stuff because it gets spread around a lot more than the positive stuff. So ofc outsiders then assume that is what most of the fandom is like, and the entire fandom is labeled as degenerate or bad. Same thing happens to furries, it gets labeled as a fandom full of degenerates and weirdos. Sure there are people in the fandom who are, but a good majority are actually kind and decent, compassionate people. Any fandom that gets enough popularity will inevitably gain a negative reputation, it's just what happens in fandom.
I know many people have already talked about Bandit's Belt in the comments, but as someone who has read all of it (although I'll admit I skimmed through some of it), it is brutal and it did ruin my mood for several days. I'll admit, I kept on reading out of morbid curiosity, to see how much it could get worse and man. It does get worse. It is genuinely soul-crushing and stress-inducing. I still remember those scenes in the hospital and those scenes with the alligator/crocodile, and so many more, and the nightmare scene(s?) ... And in between all those shocking, gory scenes, it's just miserably sad. Sorry for the rambling but Bandit's Belt is certainly something. Something I wouldn't recommend to read (unless you're into that). Though I will admit amidst all of this, some secondary or even tertiary characters get to shine. Edit : THERE'S MORE THAN 30 CHAPTERS? I thought it ended at chapter 30, on a joke. OH GOD
I read chapter 1 and 2 out of nagging curiosity a few minutes ago after watching this video and... yeah. I have a pretty high tolerance for dark themes and graphic events and I could probably stomach the whole thing if I really had to, but it's still a little uncomfortable to read, so if it gets as bad as people say, then maybe I should quit while I'm ahead. At least there are occasional funny typos and grammar errors that provide a very much needed chuckle here and there.
Oh man... Bandit's Belt... Found the fic when someone commented the name on a Bluey dark waters video when the TH-camr didn't want to say the name. I only read the first few words on the first chapter and immediately backed out of fear. And I hate to admit that the cover art is good quality but for something very violent. Edit: I do agree on harassing The Home Blue will NOT make anything better. If you don't like something, you should ignore them and let the fans be fans. In this case, I'm gonna ignore him and not read the fic. Although, I am interested on some his art, some of which should be censored and blocked for the younger audience.

Yeah, unfortunately all fandoms have "Dead Dove: Do not Eat" content in them when it comes to fanfiction, much like My Little Pony did. It's something you just have to ignore, and try to prevent younger fans from stumbling on it if able.
If I remember correctly, Exercise was changed due to health professionals bringing up the fact that it could cause self image issues with children, not because of fan backlash I might be wrong though. Love your work!! ( 20:41 )
that makes more sense to me tbh! as an adult with a long history of body dysmorphia and eating disorders, i could see myself in Bandit, but children dont always have that ability to see nuance and may take it at face value of: tummy bad
I have to give you a lot of respect for how you talk in such a gentle language throughout the entire video, so as not to accidentally say one strong word and scare others away!
8:47 Just a note on the topic of firearms and kids shows. Contrary to popular thought, I think we should have a kid show or maybe an episode of one that's dedicated to firearm safety. Kids are naturally curious, and a lot of gun owning adults in the US don't understand proper firearm safety, that's why most gun deaths in the US are due to a negligent discharge, so that means a lot of parents are not storing firearms correctly, kids need to understand how dangerous these things can be when misused. Treating the topic like Voldemort and not talking about it just makes kids more curious about them, and since they're uneducated they won't handle them safely, They could accidently discharge it and injure someone or worse.
But definitely not Bluey as that kids show because we don't have that many firearms in Australia and I would really like to keep it that way. I don't want Bluey to endorse that dangerous ideology and bring gun violence here.
@@KC-dw6yzI'd honestly like a show for teaching Australians about firearms and firearms related crimes. You guys don't exactly know a lot about the situation here in America.
Woah woah woah my guy, canon x oc shipping is perfectly fine and harmless as long as people dont take it too far by harrassing other oc x canon shippers or actively hate on Chilli for existing (which most people wont but ive seen it happen in other fandoms), youre right about Bandit being for everyone to share, and some people wanna ship their oc with him and thats fine
Yeah, i agree. It might be "cringe" in the eyes of others, but as long is its not harmful its okay. Edit: i've actually seen some pretty cute of x canon ships, I know this really nice girl who ships an oc with a canon character and she has ALWAYS been such a sweetheart 💚
Yeah!! I'm in a different fandom where self shippers and OC x cannon is very common, it's rocks! I love seeing everyone's self ships and OC x cannon ships. While harassing others for having the same f/o is bad. if you just block them or are just uncomfortable by it but aren't being rude, it's completely fine!! Cringe culture is lame and silly ships are awesome. ^_^!
@@WosiePosieCozy actually I like self ships or of x canon character, cause most of the time (depending on the fandom) people who do it are pretty nice! Most of the ones i've met aren't like stereotypical sans fangirls. I actually wish more fandoms were more open to it, it doesn't have to be the man thing, but if the ship isn't harmful then it shouldn't really be attacked ᵕ̈
I actually got curious and looked up Bandit's Belt, and from a writing standpoint, it's actually not bad. Granted the subject content is horrific and there is a lot of bad grammar, but I have to say, although it's not written well, it is a good story that's told well and hooks the reader in, which is the main goal of any writer. It just goes to show, even if someone's not the best at grammar or the other technical aspects of writing doesn't necessarily mean they can't be a good writer. Sure, it's overly edgy misery porn, but it's still a story with plenty of suspense that's keeping me reading so far and I can tell it's written from a place of genuine emotion and passion the writer poured into this story.
40:42 CURRENTLY IN THE US ARMY????? 😭😭😭😭😭 writing bluey fanfiction?! also might be nothing but considering there’s a spanish (i think) version of the title in this twitter bio, maybe english isn’t the authors first language and that’s the reasoning for the grammar mistakes.
5:25 That's Graceful Charity! A Yu-Gi-Oh card that lets you draw 3 cards, but you have to discard 2. Which I guess is kinda fitting for Bandit? Considering he gives a lot to his family, but also sacrifices a bit too. Really hoping I'm not reading too much into a piece of fanart...
The explicit side of fandoms might sound complicated and frustrating to deal with, but the reality is that it's as valid of a way to interact with the fandom (as long as they stay away from iffy subjects and they're not openly shoved into other people's faces, consent matters). If anything is popular, it's impossible to escape explicit content at all.
Coming from a gun community background and having several veteran friends across multiple outlets and walks of life, the whole "Bluey with Guns" thing is simply a method of attaching friendly & safe materials to the work environment and mentality of what those people either actively deal with or have dealt with in their lifetime. Some people simply like the combination of the characters and weapons because they are both things that they enjoy and they want to express that joy with morale patches & stickers, others who are not military personnel but do enjoy firearms also collect the patches for "funsies" and just to have a chuckle. This is something that has been a part of military culture for almost 2 centuries now, with servicemen naming numerous vehicles, weapons, etc. after cartoon characters and using their likeness to decorate them (see the story on how Donald Duck & Popeye the Sailor were official mascots for a few U.S. Navy squadrons during WWII-The Vietnam War). I can see why some people would like that stuff, it's a great show with good morals and a very relatable cast (heck, Rusty's dad is in the Australian Army and we even get an entire episode about military-style play with him and Jack playing "dust-off")... I do, however, see a problem with this thing catching on too far. Bluey is inherently a wholesome kids show for the whole family, it's got great marks all around and even the Daily Wire's Matt Walsh enjoyed the show himself (Here's the video, try to muscle your way past the political rhetoric and see what he has to say about it: th-cam.com/video/ik5sGK7TwGk/w-d-xo.htmlsi=U-4lsObkQdpjHqpV ). The issue I take with the whole "Bluey & Guns" trend is that it only really makes sense for Vets and their families, outside of that it isn't a great look... But hey, free will dictates that there are still going to be those out there enjoying it and still covering their cases, vests, cars, etc. with them, so... yeah. Love the content of this video, though I'm not a major player in the Bluey fandom I do still enjoy the show's warm-hearted nature. Hope to see more content in the future!
I used to be in a Bluey group that slowly turned more conservative over time. It was full of your typical run of the mill offensive memes but with Bluey characters.
If I had a quarter for every time a funny wrestling event involving a Bluey balloon happened, I would have 50 cents. Which isn't much, but it's weird that it happened twice.
Awesome vid as always, big H! Keep it up! Great to see you back! Although this did get me going about some thoughts I've been having recently, so here's my unprompted essay: I don't get why a bunch of people online are suddenly acting like the Bluey fandom is some kind of terrible, drama-ridden place when it's objectively one of the tamest fandoms I've ever seen (sometimes to a fault). All the "controversies" connected to it are pretty minor, universal things like scalpers, freebooters, & the fact that kink art & grimdark fanfiction exists (which it has the RIGHT to, even if it's not safe for most, just click off the page, be mindful about what you're CHOOSING to consume people!!!). Also, Redditors & Twitter users being toxic & argumentative as usual about anything & everything. Also not exclusive to the fandom. In fact, every fandom is NO more toxic than the world at large, which SHOULD be intuitive to more people because every fandom is just a large, loosely associated group of people. There's no way to really control that (unless someone's doing something REALLY illegal). Policing people's personal/creative expression based on your personal trauma or moral sensibilities is WRONG & will ALWAYS turn into a moral panic that attacks or stigmatizes people that aren't really doing anything wrong. Case in point: 31:14 Also, it bothers me a bit that every fandom/subculture nowadays has this excessive self-loathing based on the judgement of ignorant, pretentious outsiders who have increasingly made themselves the "moral police" of the internet without much challenge (outside of the opposite extremes) when so much of their judgement is subjective & nosy. At this point I'm going on a tangent, but what do you think?
Also, I don't personally count Elsa-gate stuff as part of the fandom. since that's by bad-faith actors that would probably capitalize on any franchise & already did tbh.
You're right, the characters are for everyone to enjoy, and some of those everyone are going to ship them with another character or their own OC. ANd that is perfectly okay.
Yay, the boss, is back, I remember him making reviews on restaurants in June 2023,so he never made content for about 2 days, but otherwise, he back, yay!🎉😄
Oh dang. The other day on Instagram I saw a 'leaked' clip of a new Bluey episode that contained adult versions of the characters like you mentioned. I just assumed it was fake but I clicked off when I noticed that the animation was Way too high quality for a fake leak. Luckily I can't remember what ship was ruined specifically, but the fact that clips still exist online is kinda scary

Honestly.... I saw the... Uhhhh... Surprising leaks... If you know what I mean... And honestly, I'm still super shocked, even though that was almost 2 months ago. Even still, loved the video, keep at it.
The Bluey balloon incident actually reminded me of something very similar that happened here in Mexico. To give context in Mexico, we have this mascot called Doctor Simi. He’s basically the mascot of a pharmaceutical company that is really successful so much so that colleges in the country they do study it’s success. Dr simi has merchandise more specifically plush toys what happened was that we had a heavy metal concert here in the city and what the members of the band did was that as they were performing they took out some Dr. Simi plushies and just like the wrestler before hand, they held it up and ripped it to shreds. And for good measure, they threw it into the crowd. And just like the Bluey incident many people were pissed, not necessarily in the concert, but in the aftermath, because it came up in the news. If you ask me, I died of laughter when I saw that and if you were to also ask me why exactly did those guys do that? I wouldn’t be sure, but I I think that the members of the band were pissed that Dr. Simi was being like commercialized because we saw a lot of foreign people specially people from China given it praise and stuff and they said “I’m gonna do the same thing but I’m gonna kill it and throw it into the audience.” Yeah, that was a very unhinged moment in my country .

This was a fun, fascinating video to watch as someone who's only really seen like... two episodes (including the touchingly beautiful Sleepyime)... love the calming shots of your figured watching pretty scenery.
As someone who was a brony for a long stint of time, "Bandit's Belt" gives off very "Bubbles" vibes. Though granted, Bubbles is shorter and not _as_ gritty. But it's still the same formula putting an, often fan-favorite, character in a horrificly deppressing ruin-your-mood type situation.
22:12 was watching this for crazier fandom stuff, but need to say this is because the person is playing a heel basically there are "baby faces" and "heels" one does his best to be loved while the other is supposed to look like the biggest villain, ie heel turn
Bluey military patches, or stickers on your equipment can really boost morale for pepole going through stress at times of war, It can bring reminders of what your fighting for sometimes, Like haveing a picture of your family in one of your pockets or somthing Its kind of the same thing with cartoon related patches.
Ok...1 minute into the video. I've just recently started watching Bluey and am absolutely loving how cute and wholesome it is. Sure hope this video doesn't ruin that.....
3:18 These might be airsoft replicas, as I have seen both of them irl and I really like them. You also don’t have to keep the orange tip on after you buy it, only needing it when you sell it. Their plate carrier might also be the novrich one that I see ads for.

I know many people have already talked about Bandit's Belt in the comments, but as someone who has read all of it (although I'll admit I skimmed through some of it), it is brutal and it did ruin my mood for several days.
I'll admit, I kept on reading out of morbid curiosity, to see how much it could get worse and man. It does get worse. It is genuinely soul-crushing and stress-inducing. I still remember those scenes in the hospital and those scenes with the alligator/crocodile, and so many more, and the nightmare scene(s?) ...
And in between all those shocking, gory scenes, it's just miserably sad.
Sorry for the rambling but Bandit's Belt is certainly something. Something I wouldn't recommend to read (unless you're into that).
Though I will admit amidst all of this, some secondary or even tertiary characters get to shine.
Edit : THERE'S MORE THAN 30 CHAPTERS? I thought it ended at chapter 30, on a joke. OH GOD
I read chapter 1 and 2 out of nagging curiosity a few minutes ago after watching this video and... yeah. I have a pretty high tolerance for dark themes and graphic events and I could probably stomach the whole thing if I really had to, but it's still a little uncomfortable to read, so if it gets as bad as people say, then maybe I should quit while I'm ahead. At least there are occasional funny typos and grammar errors that provide a very much needed chuckle here and there.
Oh man... Bandit's Belt... Found the fic when someone commented the name on a Bluey dark waters video when the TH-camr didn't want to say the name. I only read the first few words on the first chapter and immediately backed out of fear. And I hate to admit that the cover art is good quality but for something very violent.
Edit: I do agree on harassing The Home Blue will NOT make anything better. If you don't like something, you should ignore them and let the fans be fans. In this case, I'm gonna ignore him and not read the fic. Although, I am interested on some his art, some of which should be censored and blocked for the younger audience.
Still better than Cupcakes and that one Rarity fic from the MLP fandom.
@@DrSamwpeppermodt of the mlp horror stuff scared as a kid youtube taught me cupcakes ect most of it with the mlp toys and yeah I'm a little scared from it but also watch it like mlp stop-motion a mlp toy youtuber who as been making mlp g4 friendship is magic vids since I was a kid her most recent mlp horror takes are the others and the recent one a take on the mlp infection stories so no we are not getting into I want my family bluesy horror I'm keeping a friendly view on bluey I got digital circus and still enjoy mlp and barbie out of adult shows I got hazbin hotel and helluva boss I'm 18 and im pretty chill with all my fandoms even the ones I don't mention often
So, Bandit's belt is to Bluey what Cupcakes was for MLP, then?
Yeah, unfortunately all fandoms have "Dead Dove: Do not Eat" content in them when it comes to fanfiction, much like My Little Pony did. It's something you just have to ignore, and try to prevent younger fans from stumbling on it if able.
@@materiagrezza9331 not really,I think Rocket to Insanity is more comparable.
YEAH!! HE'S ON HIS 100TH VIDEO!!!
It true
If I remember correctly, Exercise was changed due to health professionals bringing up the fact that it could cause self image issues with children, not because of fan backlash
I might be wrong though. Love your work!! ( 20:41 )
That’s an interesting reason, for some reason I’ve never heard about that one up until now but it could definitely be possible 😅
that makes more sense to me tbh! as an adult with a long history of body dysmorphia and eating disorders, i could see myself in Bandit, but children dont always have that ability to see nuance and may take it at face value of: tummy bad
I have to give you a lot of respect for how you talk in such a gentle language throughout the entire video, so as not to accidentally say one strong word and scare others away!
Scare others away???
What are we wild animals??
@@juicebox7372 I mean there are words that are pretty uncomfortable to say outloud.
@@juicebox7372 ikr 😂
I love the new background, the night version of the cafeteria look really chill, perfect for taking for hours about bluey or only listening music 😊
8:47 Just a note on the topic of firearms and kids shows. Contrary to popular thought, I think we should have a kid show or maybe an episode of one that's dedicated to firearm safety. Kids are naturally curious, and a lot of gun owning adults in the US don't understand proper firearm safety, that's why most gun deaths in the US are due to a negligent discharge, so that means a lot of parents are not storing firearms correctly, kids need to understand how dangerous these things can be when misused. Treating the topic like Voldemort and not talking about it just makes kids more curious about them, and since they're uneducated they won't handle them safely, They could accidently discharge it and injure someone or worse.
That’s a great idea.
But definitely not Bluey as that kids show because we don't have that many firearms in Australia and I would really like to keep it that way. I don't want Bluey to endorse that dangerous ideology and bring gun violence here.
Australia gun laws are much safer then the USA’ s so they don’t have to worry about doing something like that.
That's gonna have to be for an American cartoon, cause Australia isn't exactly a gun friendly nation.
@@KC-dw6yzI'd honestly like a show for teaching Australians about firearms and firearms related crimes. You guys don't exactly know a lot about the situation here in America.
Woah woah woah my guy, canon x oc shipping is perfectly fine and harmless as long as people dont take it too far by harrassing other oc x canon shippers or actively hate on Chilli for existing (which most people wont but ive seen it happen in other fandoms), youre right about Bandit being for everyone to share, and some people wanna ship their oc with him and thats fine
Yeah, i agree. It might be "cringe" in the eyes of others, but as long is its not harmful its okay.
Edit: i've actually seen some pretty cute of x canon ships, I know this really nice girl who ships an oc with a canon character and she has ALWAYS been such a sweetheart 💚
@@OliveAndJackie cringe culture is dead anyway
Yeah!! I'm in a different fandom where self shippers and OC x cannon is very common, it's rocks! I love seeing everyone's self ships and OC x cannon ships. While harassing others for having the same f/o is bad. if you just block them or are just uncomfortable by it but aren't being rude, it's completely fine!! Cringe culture is lame and silly ships are awesome. ^_^!
@@WosiePosieCozy actually I like self ships or of x canon character, cause most of the time (depending on the fandom) people who do it are pretty nice! Most of the ones i've met aren't like stereotypical sans fangirls.
I actually wish more fandoms were more open to it, it doesn't have to be the man thing, but if the ship isn't harmful then it shouldn't really be attacked ᵕ̈
Agreed. Just don’t harass others
Bandits Belt is just………. Messed Up I can’t believe this exists
Infection AUs are pretty much all like that.
Bandit belt in a nuthsell;a lost episode disguised as a fanfic
The creator of bluey if he watches this “so ppl made an insane version of me? Something I see everyday😐
Wdym an “insane version of me”, how is the show him?
Sorry an unas and version of bluey
@@stephaniegiacco7524I mean the show is based off Joe brumm and his daughters so
I wonder if the creator is even aware about this fandom tho
@@vickythegachagirlfan15 who knows I mean there is a bluey channel on TH-cam
12:00 “WAAAAAH! WHY DID YOU TAKE ME LEGS!?” -Bluey
I actually got curious and looked up Bandit's Belt, and from a writing standpoint, it's actually not bad. Granted the subject content is horrific and there is a lot of bad grammar, but I have to say, although it's not written well, it is a good story that's told well and hooks the reader in, which is the main goal of any writer. It just goes to show, even if someone's not the best at grammar or the other technical aspects of writing doesn't necessarily mean they can't be a good writer. Sure, it's overly edgy misery porn, but it's still a story with plenty of suspense that's keeping me reading so far and I can tell it's written from a place of genuine emotion and passion the writer poured into this story.
Bandit kissing Chum Chum Chilla? This does not align with my fan fiction! I’m getting pissed off! I’m gonna go bananas!
40:42 CURRENTLY IN THE US ARMY????? 😭😭😭😭😭 writing bluey fanfiction?!
also might be nothing but considering there’s a spanish (i think) version of the title in this twitter bio, maybe english isn’t the authors first language and that’s the reasoning for the grammar mistakes.
I saw you’re TikTok account and your valentines day video and I’m so happy for you and your partner
Thank you! 😁
@@Hideaki_Shikoku omg you actually responded 😮

jokes on you, just read today til' ch13. Ain't gonna lie it was a big mistake 💀
@@Vicky_ManadgeOfficialyet you kept on going.
5:25 That's Graceful Charity! A Yu-Gi-Oh card that lets you draw 3 cards, but you have to discard 2. Which I guess is kinda fitting for Bandit? Considering he gives a lot to his family, but also sacrifices a bit too. Really hoping I'm not reading too much into a piece of fanart...
Bandit's belt mentioned 🗣‼(i deff not got any trauma with glass bottles and puchainas 🥰)
mmmmm glass yum :)
So tasty 🥰🥰
The boss is back
The explicit side of fandoms might sound complicated and frustrating to deal with, but the reality is that it's as valid of a way to interact with the fandom (as long as they stay away from iffy subjects and they're not openly shoved into other people's faces, consent matters).
If anything is popular, it's impossible to escape explicit content at all.
The Chip Chilla drama always makes me laugh cause my main Xenoverse 2 character is a Freiza Race dude called "Chilla" 😂
Yo hideaki nice videos and you are the best TH-camr at all times
Also I live In Los Angeles California hideaki for a nice video and you are cool
Bluey Fandom: *horrified*
Mlp Fandom: "first time?"
Coming from a gun community background and having several veteran friends across multiple outlets and walks of life, the whole "Bluey with Guns" thing is simply a method of attaching friendly & safe materials to the work environment and mentality of what those people either actively deal with or have dealt with in their lifetime. Some people simply like the combination of the characters and weapons because they are both things that they enjoy and they want to express that joy with morale patches & stickers, others who are not military personnel but do enjoy firearms also collect the patches for "funsies" and just to have a chuckle.
This is something that has been a part of military culture for almost 2 centuries now, with servicemen naming numerous vehicles, weapons, etc. after cartoon characters and using their likeness to decorate them (see the story on how Donald Duck & Popeye the Sailor were official mascots for a few U.S. Navy squadrons during WWII-The Vietnam War). I can see why some people would like that stuff, it's a great show with good morals and a very relatable cast (heck, Rusty's dad is in the Australian Army and we even get an entire episode about military-style play with him and Jack playing "dust-off")... I do, however, see a problem with this thing catching on too far. Bluey is inherently a wholesome kids show for the whole family, it's got great marks all around and even the Daily Wire's Matt Walsh enjoyed the show himself (Here's the video, try to muscle your way past the political rhetoric and see what he has to say about it: th-cam.com/video/ik5sGK7TwGk/w-d-xo.htmlsi=U-4lsObkQdpjHqpV ). The issue I take with the whole "Bluey & Guns" trend is that it only really makes sense for Vets and their families, outside of that it isn't a great look... But hey, free will dictates that there are still going to be those out there enjoying it and still covering their cases, vests, cars, etc. with them, so... yeah.
Love the content of this video, though I'm not a major player in the Bluey fandom I do still enjoy the show's warm-hearted nature. Hope to see more content in the future!
Yk it's gonna be a good friday when Hideaki uploads. Big fan from Syria 🇸🇾

Wow i just saw your comment, when video was on 40:22😲😲
Bandits belt is the shed 17 of the bluey fandom
I used to be in a Bluey group that slowly turned more conservative over time.
It was full of your typical run of the mill offensive memes but with Bluey characters.
Sounds disappointing.
I almost want to bet this has to be a Facebook group. Facebook Conservatives love using childrens cartoons to spread their hate.

Babe wake up hideaki posted again
When I was watching this video, I noticed that every time Hideaki's oc is shown on screen with the background, something looks suspicious.
amogus
Feels good to be back
Bruh my dad walked in at 44:29 Thank God I managed to turn off my phone in time 😭😭😭😭💀💀💀
If I had a quarter for every time a funny wrestling event involving a Bluey balloon happened, I would have 50 cents. Which isn't much, but it's weird that it happened twice.
so excited for this!
I dont see how bandits weight loss episode was depicted bad. Its honestly relateble if anytbing
I do agree. In the end of the day, we're just here to watch some square dogs having some fun for us to enjoy.
Awesome vid as always, big H! Keep it up! Great to see you back! Although this did get me going about some thoughts I've been having recently, so here's my unprompted essay:
I don't get why a bunch of people online are suddenly acting like the Bluey fandom is some kind of terrible, drama-ridden place when it's objectively one of the tamest fandoms I've ever seen (sometimes to a fault). All the "controversies" connected to it are pretty minor, universal things like scalpers, freebooters, & the fact that kink art & grimdark fanfiction exists (which it has the RIGHT to, even if it's not safe for most, just click off the page, be mindful about what you're CHOOSING to consume people!!!). Also, Redditors & Twitter users being toxic & argumentative as usual about anything & everything. Also not exclusive to the fandom.
In fact, every fandom is NO more toxic than the world at large, which SHOULD be intuitive to more people because every fandom is just a large, loosely associated group of people. There's no way to really control that (unless someone's doing something REALLY illegal). Policing people's personal/creative expression based on your personal trauma or moral sensibilities is WRONG & will ALWAYS turn into a moral panic that attacks or stigmatizes people that aren't really doing anything wrong. Case in point: 31:14
Also, it bothers me a bit that every fandom/subculture nowadays has this excessive self-loathing based on the judgement of ignorant, pretentious outsiders who have increasingly made themselves the "moral police" of the internet without much challenge (outside of the opposite extremes) when so much of their judgement is subjective & nosy. At this point I'm going on a tangent, but what do you think?
Also, I don't personally count Elsa-gate stuff as part of the fandom. since that's by bad-faith actors that would probably capitalize on any franchise & already did tbh.
You're right, the characters are for everyone to enjoy, and some of those everyone are going to ship them with another character or their own OC. ANd that is perfectly okay.
Babe wake up, new hideaki video just dropped
As an Aussie, I can confirm that over here, we have access to uncensored Bluey. Disney and the BBC censor a crap ton of stuff 😅
I was apart of r/skyplace and the bluey folks were so nice to let us add a tribute next to them. Meybe we will be allied this year too!
The funniest thing about Grayson Waller ripping the balloon is that he himself is Australian
Yay, the boss, is back, I remember him making reviews on restaurants in June 2023,so he never made content for about 2 days, but otherwise, he back, yay!🎉😄
Great, I never knew about Bandit’s belt and now I’m morbidly curious
The concept of bandits belt, that being a horrifyingly violent fan fic, this applies to any cartoon, expecially kids shows.
I am going to have a hernia by the end of this oh god
Oh dang. The other day on Instagram I saw a 'leaked' clip of a new Bluey episode that contained adult versions of the characters like you mentioned. I just assumed it was fake but I clicked off when I noticed that the animation was Way too high quality for a fake leak. Luckily I can't remember what ship was ruined specifically, but the fact that clips still exist online is kinda scary
No matter how weird the fandom, i try not to judge as long as the group or individual(s) are respectful about it
We all gangsta until a bluey/wolfenstien crossover
36:20 Bandits Belt is a Bluey fanfiction about a character having cancer

The Bluey balloon incident actually reminded me of something very similar that happened here in Mexico.
To give context in Mexico, we have this mascot called Doctor Simi. He’s basically the mascot of a pharmaceutical company that is really successful so much so that colleges in the country they do study it’s success.
Dr simi has merchandise more specifically plush toys what happened was that we had a heavy metal concert here in the city and what the members of the band did was that as they were performing they took out some Dr. Simi plushies and just like the wrestler before hand, they held it up and ripped it to shreds. And for good measure, they threw it into the crowd.
And just like the Bluey incident many people were pissed, not necessarily in the concert, but in the aftermath, because it came up in the news.
If you ask me, I died of laughter when I saw that and if you were to also ask me why exactly did those guys do that? I wouldn’t be sure, but I I think that the members of the band were pissed that Dr. Simi was being like commercialized because we saw a lot of foreign people specially people from China given it praise and stuff and they said “I’m gonna do the same thing but I’m gonna kill it and throw it into the audience.”
Yeah, that was a very unhinged moment in my country .
You know...ive joked about an episode about salt water crocodiles and after bandits belt that joke seems really tame
Fans also Simps for Chili.

This was a fun, fascinating video to watch as someone who's only really seen like... two episodes (including the touchingly beautiful Sleepyime)... love the calming shots of your figured watching pretty scenery.
As someone who was a brony for a long stint of time, "Bandit's Belt" gives off very "Bubbles" vibes.
Though granted, Bubbles is shorter and not _as_ gritty. But it's still the same formula putting an, often fan-favorite, character in a horrificly deppressing ruin-your-mood type situation.
4:40 stop acting like we forgot about your bandit body pillow
I really feel bad for Dave since people really have a big uhh ship with him.
22:12 was watching this for crazier fandom stuff, but need to say this is because the person is playing a heel
basically there are "baby faces" and "heels" one does his best to be loved while the other is supposed to look like the biggest villain, ie heel turn
Bluey military patches, or stickers on your equipment can really boost morale for pepole going through stress at times of war, It can bring reminders of what your fighting for sometimes, Like haveing a picture of your family in one of your pockets or somthing Its kind of the same thing with cartoon related patches.
Good work! Worth the wait! Funny as hell!
Ok...1 minute into the video. I've just recently started watching Bluey and am absolutely loving how cute and wholesome it is. Sure hope this video doesn't ruin that.....
3:18 These might be airsoft replicas, as I have seen both of them irl and I really like them. You also don’t have to keep the orange tip on after you buy it, only needing it when you sell it. Their plate carrier might also be the novrich one that I see ads for.
