I don't think Caine is malicious. He's an AI programmed to make adventures for the players but it's clear that the game is not very well made. As such, Caine does not hate; he means no harm but isn't programmed to really understand harm. I don't think Caine even has a concept of pain. He's simply there to do what he was programmed to, entertain. He just wasn't programmed well. I actually really love this take on an AI Antagonist. They aren't evil they just weren't programmed correctly.
As I understand it, the specific core inspiration was the question "Hmm... what if something like AM was well-meaning, and trying his best, but just wasn't at all equipped to do the job of caring for the humans?"
I've got an AI character who is basically trying everything she can think of to NOT become AM, while all the while, the humans around her unintentionally keep stacking on the psychological problems and making it almost impossible for her to stay sane.
Being succumbed into a mass blob of glitch after letting your insanity gets the best of you is what makes the Digital Circus a crazy world we're living in. After all, the fate of playable avatars leads to a "virtual insanity".
I really love the horrifying concept of the The amazing digital circus. It got so much more interesting after the first official episode. The concept feels refreshing through the way they try to keep the language family-friendly or the color palette which would lead to think oh it's a cute show when it's the entire opposite of it and tackling insanity and horror 😅 Also great video, I really like your visuals, they match the tone per usual
Wow, this is the first video I've seen where someone doesn't connect Caine with "Cain and Abel". But no matter how many times I hear that type of theory, it's always so cool to me.
I feel like what the digital circus does so amazingly is that it draws its inspirations from terrifying tales but does such a good job of making its own by combining it with humor and comedic timing. We’ve seen plenty of spooky and eerie stories but not ones that are so bright and cheerful while still maintaining that there is more going on in the shadows. It reminds me of gravity falls but if they stretched the mysterious unknown and fun loving show much further into the extremes. We’re still only 2 episodes in so we’ve got a long way to go to see how this plays out but so far the execution of this show is phenomenal
As someone who only recently got into TADC here's something I found interesting while exploring the wiki. Literally half of the main 8 don't identify the same as their voice actors. Bubble: boy voiced by a girl. Ragatha and Gangle: girls voiced by nonbinary individuals. Zooble: (even they don't know) voiced by a girl. So Bubble is the only male in this group and Pomni is the only female not in this group. Just thought that was interesting. Also Jax and Zooble's actors are BF and GF. I love when people who love each other play people who hate each other, it's just so funny to learn.
I knew there were similarities, but damn some of these are spot on to Digital Circus. I miss old point and click games especially the dark ones like I have no mouth, phasmogoria etc.
A little off-topic, but I believe that I Have No Mouth & I Must Scream was one of the many inspirations for Sci-Fi horror game Scorn, a visually stunning game that also took inspiration from the likes of H.R. Giger, Zdzislaw Beksinski, & H.P. Lovecraft.
As a side note, one of the inspirations for the show is Raggedy Ann & Andy - A Musical Adventure, a trippy 1977 animated movie, and it shows on Raggatha's design, the monster in the second episode resembling the Greed monster of the movie, and probably in other moments that elluded me, lol. The Jax's VA recorded a version of '''No Girls Toy'' too, it's here on TH-cam!
Was not expecting to see RWBY get a mention in an Abitfrank episode. Though I suppose it's fitting since today's subject is another web series. A lot of RWBY fans on Reddit were saying that Glitch should buy RWBY from Warner Brothers when we found out Rooster Teeth was shutting down. I hope you weren't unlucky enough to get sucked into Monty Olm's final project like I was. But a part of me also hopes you would do an episode on RWBY because of all the Fairytale references.
I really like the thought of it being pronounced "A-M" if you're saying that a lot it starts to sounds like "I am" I think both pronunciations are very cool because they both feel like they reference "I think therefore I am" when you say them out loud, it's a very cool story
I love this video and I really want you to do a part 2 as things develop. I do want to gently let you know some things that I have learned from Gooseworks' Tumblr account. She often likes to answer questions people have about the show just so long as it doesn't give away anything. Gooseworks has stated that Cain isn't malicious on purpose and that he may do things that is wrong but he's completely oblivious. Jax on the other hand Goose states, "He deserves to be stuck in the circus the most". I do have my own theories so let me know if you want to hear them.
Much like how the people who made AM are trapped by him, I feel like the people trapped in the circus are the people that made it. The biggest point of interest being that Kinger is an expert on how it all works, has been there the longest without abstraction and is obsessed with finding bugs. His bug obsession might be in relation to what his job was, finding bugs in the game. Considering he’s stuck there he has likely found the biggest bug of them all. Unfortunately Kinger has gone almost completely insane and can’t hold onto a thought or memory long enough to be helpful.
Just a few nitpicks, AM didn't alter their brains through surgery, but years of psychological torment turning a bold decicive man into a spineless yes man, or an attractive gay man into a well endowed ugly ape. Effectively making them shadows, and mockeries of their former selves. AM also didnt implant anything in their brains to talk to them but it was the protagonist's own psychosis making him think that he was talking directly to him. An omitted detail, was that the bird they /could/ have fought for food, AM did give them weapons, water pistols, ineffectual means to kill something so dangerous as a way of making fun of them. Apart from that, this is mostly speculation, Nimdok's name could have also been a play on words an amalgamation of Nimrod, and dim doctor. Nimrod because of how Bugs Bunny effectively changed the meaning from 'mighty hunter' to 'imbicile', which would be fitting for AM's cruelty. Dim, meaning low intelligence/not bright. Dok being a bastardized version of Doc, because of his own origin as a doctor for a horrible travesty and because after 100 years out of practice, could he really still be a doctor?
Wait, can you please elaborate on the Bugs Bunny "nimrod" correlation? As an etymology nerd, I've never heard this but am fascinated. Did this happen due to something in pop culture in our reality, or in the universe of the story? I'm genuinely fascinated.
@@searchingfororion yeah, by all means. The way the word had its sort of "fall from grace" is in the Bugs Bunny cartoon "A wild hare" Bugs ended up calling Elmer Fudd 'Nimrod', subsequently in a different cartoon, Daffy Duck says "poor little Nimrod" when referring to Elmer as well. These instances changes the meaning, turning it from its once established meaning into slang to mean someone clumsy or foolish. The reason why it would fit with the story "I have no mouth and I must scream" is because of how it's been changed so drastically from its original meaning and become an antonym of itself. Famously however Harlan Ellison wrote the short story in a night so literally anyone analyzing it put more thought into his story than he himself did.
Caine concerns me. He talks about the “exit” he was working on like he had no concept of the real world. It makes sense if he’s an AI, but it would be even sadder if he is a human raised in the simulation.
Before seeing your video, the way I USED to thnk of how the cast lined up was: AM = Caine Ted = Pomni Ellen = Ragetha Benny = Kinger Nimdok = Gangle Gorrester = Zooble (checked out side) and Jax (violent side) But after seeing your video, I'm wondering if I have Gangle and Pomni switched - maybe Gangle is Ted and Pomni is Nimdok. If that's the case, it makes me wonder if there's something more (dangerously more) to Pomni before she got downloaded than we're led to think.
Cain is also the name of the first murderer in human history. My sister's stepson is named Caine, too, and he grew up to be a for-hire serial killer. I would never say this aloud to them, but they DID name him after the #1 murderer of all time...
@@JN27x Yeah! that one. the aesthetic when they were in the computer and 3d is very similar to TADC. (spoilers) Love that episode. Also, the fact that red guy does the "wait what?" then his head explodes with the party streamers when he crosses the door to a different world.. Like Gumigo lol
@@Dahlia_Sweetie Ye, I think it's possible Gooseworx took some inspiration from DHMIS, they both have pretty much the same vibe, and are Dark comedy/psychological horror shows.
Actually I got confused when you said AM I thought you were saying IA 😭💀 But the confusion between 'AM' and AI (Artificial Intelligence) is interesting. It shows how easy it is to mix up those terms, especially both involve random outcomes. In real life, this mix up can lead to misunderstandings about technology. People might think AI is a malevolent force like AM, when it's actually a tool we control.
Caine is more unbeknownst of his actions in the show, I really think he just wants to keep them at ease. His name could also be just cut from the word and drug, novacaine. Essentially cus he's a pair of teeth and since novacaine is used as a "numbing" type of drug for your gums. That's probably the head canon, since there isn't much themes of religion. Heavily inspired by I Have No Mouth, I Must Scream though
I thought caine was named after cain, as in the eldest son of adam and eve. the one who killed his younger brother. in the pilot when pomni enters the fake exit theres a sign logo thing that says CA, which could be refrencing cain and abel.
I've always thought I have no mouth and I must scream was always the most horrific story where AI eliminates mankind. AM has true malice for humans and delights in how twisted and tormented he can make them. I've never checked out Digital Circus but this video sort of convinced me Haha.
7:15 That speech on _"hate"_ reminds me of how i hate my own ethnicity {Ireland and Irish people} and how I hate my own family for the Situation I'm in... Hate... Hate... Hatred for Sports of which Irish people adore Soccer, and a bug dislike for: Rock, Emo, Punk, Metal, and Love songs. And also a dislike to traditional romance and romantic gestures, a hate for bands like Green Day, MCR, The Killers, Fleetwood Mac. I love The Amazing Digital Circus, I like all the Characters, but I think I like: - Ragatha - Caine - Pomni The most 12:46 Yeah I see that, definitely felt like TADC was inspired by both: - I have no mouth and I must scream - Popee the Preformer And oh my god... Way back when I first heard about Popee the Preformer, it is brutal, and I get a Liminal vibe from it, it feels... Empty
Caine doesn't force them to join tho. Zooble was able to not take part in the adventure in the second episode and nothing bad happened to them as a result. The video is really good and interesting but that was bugging me.
If this true it would be scary. But my favorite genre is horror. But I think maybe Caine is not evil, just a smart and stupid character? I know that’s an oxymoron but I think you get what I’m saying. I can’t wait to see where the series goes from here on out. But I see where your idea comes from when he goes into the eyes monster.
ABF: "But more importantly, you can't spell Caine without AI." Me: I'm sure Kane would beg to differ... after a massive chokeslam. 😀 (I know, dated reference.)
@@darkcrydotmrihavetoomanyst1440 i mean, in the indie community, yes? it's extremely obvious hazbin hotel has had a massive effect on webseries n whatnot
I don't think Cain is evil, he doesn't even force them to go on any of the adventures, I think he's just trying to keep them from going insane. Also I hypothesis that Cain maybe human, the last human I'm the world and Pomni and the team are just AIs he programmed to believe that they are humans.
Essentially, the reverse version of it's original inspiration... One human masquerading as an AI trying its best to keep six AIS thinking they are human inside of a colorful Wacky World instead of a hateful machine of War torturing 5 humans with the rest of Eternity...
Interesting take on Caine, I've been hearing his name is a reference to a character in Christian myth name Cain the first murderer and something about the demiurge, how Cain might run the circus but isn't the true creator.
Since were going to get an episode of Spudsy's (the restaurant) what if one of the casts had the virtual sensation of hunger and is desperate on eating something from the restaurant but who knows what happens if you digest the food
Pomni's name is actually a russian word! according to my friend who's fluent it's the imperative form of the verb "remember," so its like a command word telling you not to forget something.
Caine is not evil in the show...but On the website episode 3 update... Caine acts more like AM in the show the characters can't die even if they kill each other but in the website we are able to kill Jax and Caine is mad and talks about something about messing with our Brain? Sound familiar?
I predict that if Caine does indeed snap and try and punish Pomni for some misdeed she'll do [or maybe even Jax], I imagine he's gonna grab Kinger by the head and go "I'm a beat a mother[bleep]er with a mother[bleep]er
Man I forgot about "I have No Mouth and MUST SCREAM", I really should go back and watch a replay of that game also there is a sequel to "Poppy" whatever it is it's not as good to be frank, it's funny I know both of these properties but forgot about them, I always thought Pomni was "Jesus" with the hand

Yeah. He's not evil, he just has absolutely NO empathy. And contrary to popular belief, those two aren't actually the same thing.
yeah the creator actually confirmed that caine isnt INTENTIONALLY malicious. he just doesnt understand the situation.
Benevolence, but no true understanding of human needs.
Plus, they don’t want to straight up copy and paste ‘I have no mouth and I must scream’
He's been trying to make them an EXIT, but he doesn't know what to put on the other side.
Digital circus is a terrifying place. Because if you don't keep your cool you'll get abstracted that's a scary thought to think about.
Sorry for the correction but you mean abstracted right?
And nobody can keep their cool in a hell they can’t leave forever. But if you don’t, you get to be in an even worse hell! Yay!
It’s worth noting that Goosewox has stated Cain is not evil so AI takeover is unlikely to be a theme so much as mental health
Probably alzheimers and stockholm syndrome
As I understand it, the specific core inspiration was the question "Hmm... what if something like AM was well-meaning, and trying his best, but just wasn't at all equipped to do the job of caring for the humans?"
I've got an AI character who is basically trying everything she can think of to NOT become AM, while all the while, the humans around her unintentionally keep stacking on the psychological problems and making it almost impossible for her to stay sane.

Caine actually does stand for something: Creative Artificial Intelligence Networking Entity! According to Gooseworx, he created his own name!
I knew there were similarities, but damn some of these are spot on to Digital Circus. I miss old point and click games especially the dark ones like I have no mouth, phasmogoria etc.
0:11 They're not forced. The "adventures" are just to keep them entertained so they avoid going crazy.
whats the difference? you are too young to understand the power of coercion . i hope your brain is part of the first harvest . enjoy your digital hell

...it did.
Welp, eagerly waitin' for continuation of that series
Delicious in Dungeon shout out had my brain release a tiny bit of joy into my bloodstream :)
I love both you (a bit frank, and a bit late), and TADC, so this is the best video!!
The Digital Circus is honestly really scary.
I couldn't sleep after watching the first episode. For some reason a lot of people think it's funny but to me it is pure nightmare fuel.
Seeing that the company that made the game is C&A (and the C is for Caine), obviously Caine represents one half of "Caine and Abel" from the Bible.
This narrator sounds very smart and has a lovely voice. This channel is lovely❤

If not for Harlon Ellison, we probably wouldn't even have this astounding, virtual funhouse.
There’s an Easter egg on the packaging for the official Caine figure.
On the inside of the box he is abstracted.
The fact that "I have no mouth and I must scream" came out the same year as the beatle's sgt pepper's album is funny to me

Interesting take on Caine, I've been hearing his name is a reference to a character in Christian myth name Cain the first murderer and something about the demiurge, how Cain might run the circus but isn't the true creator.
Since were going to get an episode of Spudsy's (the restaurant) what if one of the casts had the virtual sensation of hunger and is desperate on eating something from the restaurant but who knows what happens if you digest the food
Caine reminds me of that one circus guy from one of the mario party's on the wii, think it was 7 or 8.
Next: do the origin story(that prolly is actually dark) behind poppy playtime video
Pomni's name is actually a russian word! according to my friend who's fluent it's the imperative form of the verb "remember," so its like a command word telling you not to forget something.
Don't Forget The TOME: Terrain of Magical Expertise....
Caine is not evil in the show...but
On the website episode 3 update... Caine acts more like AM in the show the characters can't die even if they kill each other but in the website we are able to kill Jax and Caine is mad and talks about something about messing with our Brain? Sound familiar?
Good morning!😋Hope you have a blessed day!
Bruh I'm getting abstracted just for the lolz
I hadn't made this connection and now my brain ins broken.
I predict that if Caine does indeed snap and try and punish Pomni for some misdeed she'll do [or maybe even Jax], I imagine he's gonna grab Kinger by the head and go "I'm a beat a mother[bleep]er with a mother[bleep]er
16:15 ENA mentioned!
Ths Simpsons chili Collier episode when Homer accidentally starts tripping and goes on a desert theme spirit journey in the parking lot….
I just thought his name was Caine because he's holding what looks like a cane lmao
Have you read the Miss Peregrine series? It seems very on brand for you ^^
Memes aside, it is crazy that the biggest show right now is made by a Trans Woman.
This show. Yup.
Happy Pride Month!
Man I forgot about "I have No Mouth and MUST SCREAM", I really should go back and watch a replay of that game also there is a sequel to "Poppy" whatever it is it's not as good to be frank, it's funny I know both of these properties but forgot about them, I always thought Pomni was "Jesus" with the hand
Welp. I might have nightmares.
Caine seems pretty biblical. He is stuck suffering. So, he makes others suffer. Just like the computer program in "no mouth."
Good evening
If I did Digital Circus it would be closer to No Mouth
