- Zamination is an animation channel known for its Minecraft Five Nights at Freddy's content, most notably Fazbear and Friends. But despite its popularity a couple years ago, Zamination's series has pretty much fallen off. So today we'll be covering everything that led to the downfall of one of the most popular FNAF series on TH-cam. From it's clickbait and degenerate thumbnails, to it's mild but still weird engagement with NFT sponsors, this is the first episode of our FNAF Degeneracy saga. Enjoy!

Whenever the first fazbear and friends show came out it had potential, it was actually pretty decent, but then they ruined it by making all clickbait
EXACTLY
Not just clickbait, they would make it thumbnails that made no sense, and then it was just a repost of the same episode of another
@@EndieAnimationsThat’s why I stopped watching them
W FAX
Basically Fazbear and Friends Become Elsagate series
Fun fact: the guy who voiced foxy in fazbear and friends is the same person who voiced foxy in 5:00am at Freddy's.
Legend has it that hes still bored
And another fun fact: he voices the man from Poppy Playtime who tells you that you're trespassing. And a narrator on the channel 'Emkay'@@IDoFNaFLMAO
Ain't no way a 5:00am at Freddy's was in a kids channel..that's crazy💀

This series used to be so good until the crossover shorts took over…
It's because Zach and Micah were working on Poppy Playtime so they never had time to work on new music vids and had other people make the shorts
Or better yet, they couldn't make decent episodes from mid '21 onwards because they were too busy on Poppy

and then it became your average Gen Alpha content
At least they didn't animated Skibidi Toilet in this series
That's like the ONLY thing they didn't do lol

@@MeoKidoToonsthank the lord above he didn’t do that
I think you posted that comment for 2 reasons:
1.GameToons started making cringe Skibidi toilet animations.
2.There are other Skibidi toilet content farms who make cringe animations.
I remember years ago, I watched their foxy song trilogy and I thought it was actually a really good set of Minecraft animations … then they fell off immediately after
Oof.
Same bro
Bro i remember rewatching it when i was young and get excited when they made a new vid
Same
i wouldn't have thought that SDRA2 would be this popolar almost on pair as DR in general
(Nikei Yomiuri is fantastic)
I didn't realize Zamination was so...bad.
I'm sorry we're the one's who had to break the bad news.
It's because Zach and Micah were working on Poppy Playtime so they never had time to work on new music vids and had other people make the shorts
yeah i like his version of the skelleton rap better than danbulls

@@azanimates You literally just copied and pasted their comment! Like dude why?!
The first 3 episodes were pretty inoffensive and wholesome. Annnnd that was it. Literally 3 episodes in and the quality took the fastest nosedive I have ever seen a piece of media take
They wasted NO time.
The 4th episode (the Circus Baby one) was pretty decent, if they were trying to pilot a show with the first four episodes, then CB had a very good character demeanor with a bright bubbly personality (even though every original FNAFer knows she was *NOT* that way in Sister Location). It's around the time they found Squid Game that everything just full on collapsed.
Helluva Boss: Hold my beer
@@No_Sleepeehelluva boss is alot better than that bullshit at least it has a storyline and great episodes
@@HeoBaby24 is that why the writing is so bad people have memed "If X written by Vivziepop"?
For me the show was ruined when they started to add characters that aren’t from FNAF, for example one thing is adding purple guy, puppet and the sister location crew and another one is adding baldi, bf, bendy, etc
True I was just fine with the original characters we didn’t need poppy playtime bendy baldi literally everything, I miss the original stuff
@@discoverwithnoura2538 i know, they could have made a lot of good episodes whit the original’s, the fun times and the glam rocks but no
They make poppy playtime, bendy, fnf, squid game, etc videos when the series is called fazbear and friends
it's called fazbear and friends not fazbear and other characters, we should have added the fnaf characters in fazbear and friends like the other animatronics not ones from other games.
exactly my thought! you can't put fnaf and baldi ,among us and squid game together, it doesn't work! it doesn't make any senses!!!
@@Frost_the_polarian_fox the only way is if the series is about video game characters interacting but fazbear and friends was made to be a parody of FNAF and nothin else
It’s funny how the same people who make this made a game about kids being expiremented/turned into toys so they can work as slaves for a toy company 😭
Yeah true lol
I mean literally this shit happen in Poppy Playtime and FNaF (kinda with SB but still)
I was an OG who actually enjoyed watching their old music videos from years ago. Now the channel has gone to the darkest pit of hell. Don’t keep the devil waiting Zaminations…
Nice.
same the new videos are just becoming disappointing
@@lethal_disease02Blud the new videos are music videos? They’re not doing the shorts anymore
you’re not “og” for watching their music videos, in fact you were one of the brain rot kids on the internet back then, but say what you want, whatever makes you feel better
@@SyrupsDip oh sorry, i havent checked their channel in a while
I honestly liked the idea of the show when it released, then it went downhill with cringe.
In concept, it's not a bad idea. But yeah, now it's just a content farm.
@@MeoKidoToonsnot anymore, it actually ended months ago. Search up “the end of fazbear and friends”
It's because Zach and Micah were working on Poppy Playtime so they never had time to work on new music vids and had other people make the shorts
@@azanimatesyou are copying and pasting the same comment over and over again dude
@@ForgottenC2890 sorry for trying to spread a message. im not tryna be annoying.
I had a conspiracy theory that this show was Fazbear Entertainment's last resort to remain relevant.
Makes sense
William: what these stupid toodlers like nowadays in this generation
Henry: have you heard of minecraft? They keep playing that
William: damn you're a genius, now how we can use it to make fazbear entertainment not go bankrupt?
Pretty good theory actually...
@n1ghtshad390 theres multiple reasons of why it is a bad idea 💀💀
Now that’s a really good theory right there!
(Totally not planning on adding this into my badly written/poor logic AU)
I never Realized how sexualized the women were in the show until now😂
It's pretty weird..
Note: They're not women, they're girls
it’s not that funny, it’s honestly an ongoing issue with content farms
Dehumanizing, if you will
Freddy Fazbear: "I don't care who the IRS sends, I am NOT paying my taxes"
It should be an important note that the guys who made the music videos weren't working on the crappy crossover videos. they worked on a few of the first fazbear and friend videos but mainly worked on poppy playtime.
It’s so annoying cause the animation is actually good
Kind of a waste of talent unfortunately.
@@MeoKidoToonsI mean, they have the Poppy Playtime games which have a lot of quality and effort, if you deny that after Chapter 3, you probably have somehow seen much better
What pisses me off is that the animatronics are possesed by ghosts of childeren. Which make some scenes REALLY weird.
True!
I've always imagined this series as a more modernish-version of the Fazbear and Friends TV show that might have aired on the TV in FNAF 4 (excluding Fredbear). Then, of course, after the third episode, things went south _fast_ and that's definitely not the case anymore. But, at the very least, I don't have to imagine a bunch of dead kids being borderline tortured and/or killed again with strange otherworldly creatures that just invade their restaurant for some reason. Not to mention, Charlie being forced to go on a date with her _murderer_ in one of the episodes.
@@twilight_potato it gets wild for sure...
I don’t think they are in the show bro
@@3clisp315yeah William doesn’t even kill kids he’s just an absolute douche. Then again these animatronics are made for kids so still weird tbh
Ima be real, ever since they launch Fazbear and friends and stopped making music video, my final straw when they became a content farm
Yeah, the shorts were just the worst… I’m glad they’ve stopped making them
Your profile picture looks like a Liam Vickers character.
@@ejm1225 It's my oc, I studied Liam's style
I was old enough to remember when Enchanted Mob made sister location music videos that actually had some heart in it like Ballora’s Song, You Can’t Hide, etc. It’s just sad that they’ve conformed to content farming there was so much artistic potential put to waste
If fazbear and friends were still going the videos are probably gonna be like this “Freddy vs Skibidi toilet 😮” “foxy kills Titan tvman😱” “Bonnie finds the smurf cat😮” “Chica gets rizzed up😏”
Now I'm REALLY glad that they stopped...
The question is... Who is rizzing up chica?
anyone@@CheezMaster24
Purple guy@@CheezMaster24
@@CheezMaster24 don't ask questions you don't want answers too.
I remember watching the few episodes and thinking they had a good thing going. Thank god, it stopped at episode 4, and never continued, right?
Right?
Right...
This is why they brought the ✨MUSIC BACK✨
Yes so much better then before
It didn't do anything to save them though, the "music video" is just more dumb crap
@mjfan5748 well I like the MUSIC
@@mjfan5748 Nah, you just don't know what time and effort is. the process of molding and rigging characters. coming up with lyrics and stuff. but, i guess you don't care.
Sure it might seem good, but at the same time, it was a complete waste since they just wasted only 4 or 5 episodes before going through a content farm before shutting down. So yeah, their series was already doomed before we got a full season.
I will give it credit, the animation is very well done! Like, it’s expressive, the models are good, and ‘some’ of the jokes are good…. Some.
Kinda happy it ended, just wish they kept the episode format
It’s just sad seeing something devolve from
Somewhat decent to This
And the whole cotimplaintition ( auto correct is being weird ) just took bad to worse
fnaf musical by random encounters is way better than fazbear and friends
We'll have to check it out sometime!
The og fnaf movie
the fact that they would have done something SO goofy but yet SO good but missed the chance just honestly pisses me off that they actually tolerated going with all the "kid friendly" stuff that just gives off weird crossover shorts that soon just took over.
Yeah, I discovered Zam and Mob through the early episodes of Fazbear & Friends and I thought it was a cool little series but the crossover shorts definitely killed the show. I just find it really funny how we both made pretty similar videos discussing Zam. Even though mine was about how TADC killed their Adventure Mode pilot (which is probably one of their best recent projects tbh), I did briefly mention Fazbear & Friends. Zam is one of the better animation "content farms" on TH-cam, but it is still a content farm nonetheless.
I (Meo) remember seeing them around years ago, but never really checking them out. Imagine our surprise when we popped into the complete mess it became! Hopefully, they will change course and make better content.
We'll have to check out your video, it sounds pretty interesting!
@@MeoKidoToons Honestly I’m glad they stopped Fazbear and Friends and went back to making music videos and better content. So far they are doing pretty good imo.
At the very least they actually put effort into the animation, but that really doesn't excuse much
@@RaptorZer0 I agree. The shorts oversaturated their channel and ruined the way people viewed their content. Although the full episodes were fine, the focus on shorts ended up ruining everything. Now, they are back to producing high-quality music videos. However, I do wish they would bring back Adventure Mode, but I have already explained why that is most likely impossible in my video.
@@octosquid48 true. Good animation ≱ good cartoon. On the bright side, at least none of their content was damaging, unlike some OTHER content farms. **cough** *Hornstromp* **cough**
Fun fact: The person who voiced foxy in the fazbear friends series is the same person who voiced foxy in the 5am at freddys shorts
it went from
``oh this series is so good it will have a great future!``
to
``i hate this i hope this burns``
This isn’t even gen z humor, this is just unfunny
Yeah
I think it is more Gen Alpha in my opinion
Please as a genzer do not compare us to this gen alpha level humor
the funniest joke to me and my friend was "AH! HES BRITISH!!"
Ty for liking the comment :)
It's depressing how much Zamination has evolved over time, and it's not just their videos
*devolved
Ok, I might not like this channel but that security breach clip got a little chuckle out of me
Probably one of the funniest shorts they've done.
I'm 23 and I actually enjoy watching their animations with my siblings. Cashing in on big trends aside, their stuff isn't that bad. Atleast, the older stuff. Not all mindnumbingly stupid stuff like Lankybox or something. Lots of funny moments in some of the Fazbear and Friends animations. Sucks they took the cheap way out with clickbait and sketchy practices.
Everytime I watched these animations I’d forget they’re Minecraft 😭
this is the highest quality content farm I ever ran across. whether that's good or bad is on you to decide.
I came across the channel once and was so impressed with the animation. It's quite refreshing from whatever else 3D sludge plagues that continent of TH-cam.
Sucks to see that they Spongebob'd it into a corporate cog and lost most of their identity and passion.
Hmm, I suppose it is similar to Spongebob...
"Spongebob'd" needs to become an actual term.
I NEED a memory erase gun from Gravity Falls after seeing this dog water, content farm, elsa gate NONSENSE. Also good video addressing this channel MeoKido Toons
Thanks!
*We'll meet again...Don't know where, don't know when. Oh I know we'll meet again on a sunny day!..*
I remember the first episode of this series being the best episode through the series. I even remember when it first came out. I just wish Z went back to his song videos he makes. Like the foxy song.
9:44 The Rock eyebrow raise got me 😂
9:41 this reminds me of Dsaf 3 where it had a option where you could open a foxy themed st**p club on your pizzeria
That game was wild on humor
DSAF MENTIONED ‼️‼️
Had so much damm potential but by the 4th episode..It was going down hill..It hurts considering how well the handle their music videos..Despite the "Stories" and "Designs"..
I’m glad the series came to an end
Same honestly.
I’m glad someone is finally talking about it.
Just doing our job.
This is what happens when a series runs for too long. The sexual moments were just completely unnecessary(like seriously wtf was that Toy Chica clip) and the constant crossovers are unnecessary. At least the animation was well done
The only thing I watched from ZAMination was the Build Our Machine music video.
that shit was lowkey fire
Haven't seen it. Might go check it out.
I think it was uploaded on EnchantedMob, but yeah it was pretty great.
the living tombstone made build our machine after the game came out.
@@viviennemorgan7217 i think they're talking about the Minecraft animation video, yeah the living tombstone make the song but we are talking about Minecraft animation that use his song (and somehow get more views than the original video)
That, “Just Monika” and “Follow Me” was what got me to like them b4 Fazbear n Friends took a turn for the worse from the repeated videos
I love the fact that Purple Guy os voiced by Zack Fuller the same voice actor of Mike and Zack by Piemations. Zack Fuller is one of my favourite voice actors of all the time
7:59 the SB one is funny cause it basically sums up SB’s bugs and Freddy’s derpy nature.
Yeah, that's the main reason I thought it was funny.
Thank. You.
Stuff like this makes me sad on why people are suddenly praising Poppy Playtime and MOB Entertainment. Like, didn't the creators do shit like...
*this*
Also, didn't we try to cancel them once or twice? Why the sudden praise?
Who knows. MOB has a shady past to say the least. Glad you enjoyed the video!
Separate the art and the artists
@A983Network
Chapter 3 recently came out and it got a lot of praise for it. I watched someone play Chapter 3. I'm not gonna lie, it's actually a big improvement than in chapters 1 & 2. It's also more darker than chapters 1 & 2.
I was watching a couple of other TH-camrs livestreaming Chapter 3 of Poppy Playtime. They mentioned that Mob fired a couple of people "supposedly" responsible for the Poppy Playtime NFTs fiasco. (The NFTs contained in-game canon lore.) Then Mob used that NFT money to donate it to charity to make up for the NFTs debacle.
I want to support the artists, the musicians, and the game devs who made Poppy Playtime and I like some of the character designs, but... it's the top two CEO creators at Mob Entertainment that I still feel iffy about.
@AHatFloatingInTime Man, I will always be mixed with this saying, personally.
Like, I had things that I really liked, but by supporting it, I would also supporting the terrible main creators behind the art that I don't want to support!
But, it also makes me feel bad to not support a massive part of a team who are most likely very nice people who worked hard on the project!
So, it's such a grey area for me when thinking about this saying.
Like, I can see the passion from so much of the behind the scenes developers and want to support their hard work, but I always get this dark presence staring down at me, knowing that the heads of certain projects are not very good people and will be getting most of the money that certain projects makes and I don't want to support that!
Of course, not all leaders of companies are unlikable people, but the ones who are, I hate even thinking about them, and it's just impossible for me to like something knowing the main heads of the company is just very unlikable and awful!
@@MarioandLuigiplaygames17
Exactly! I have similar thoughts about this as well.
Fun Fact: Zaminations created poppy playtime, so any scenarios they put the characters in is technically canon.
I'm willing to believe that.
Am actually an older fan of Zam even before some of there fnaf songs back then I really liked them and when they posted Fazbear friends I thought it was ok but yeah eventually I grew tired of the content farm they became
That's fair.
Sometimes I can’t help but think what the series could’ve been if they didn’t do spammed shorts and milked crossovers.
Hopefully one day we might get the FB&F that we truly deserved
We can dream.
I feel like a lot of people assume that just because it's Minecraft animation it has to be mainly targeted towards kids which in logic makes sense Minecraft is primarily played by kids and so they'll watch something like after show not knowing that the video pretty much has a bunch of dark elements to it and far more gore than what you'd see fron a regular Minecraft animation but the problem I have with Fazbear and Friends is unlike those videos which clearly intended to be targeted less at kids and for a more mature audience Fazbear and Friends clearly looks and is written to target kids and having these types of jokes don't work out I mean foxy's eyepatch going up is so blatantly a bricked up joke I'm surprised they got away with it.
I didn’t notice this until now but one thumbnail uses mrs.Mayberry in her past form from helluva boss😅 I wonder how vivziepop feels about that
not even the thumbnail, the entire video uses mrs mayberry, and their name appears on a chalkboard
ZAMination used to actually be decent, I quit watching after fazbear and friends, god WHY MUST EVERY GOOD THING END.
The music videos are back.
The new songs they’ve been making are actually pretty good. Glad that they realized what they were doing with the shorts was wrong.
Indeed
the fact that EnchantedMob and ZAmations are owned by the same people (Mob entertainment) actually explains a lot to me, i always wondered how the two channels were so in sync and how their uploads were so similar all the time
well, WERE owned by the same people, Zam and Mob split up recently over disagreement on how to run the company, surprise surprise
The episodes themselves where better then the clickbait shorts honestly. Like one scene i personality liked in the series was when Bonnie, Chica and Foxy all apologise to Freddy after they pretty much abandoned him for CB, idk why but it was nice to see something that wasnt "ha ha funny poop joke ha ha"
That's fair
I think I have seen one of the episodes with the purple dog though, that was like two years ago and the episode had some crossover shorts. Good thing, I have not watched the entire series.
I remember watching Zaminations back when it first started and now it turned into this
Sadness.
Watching this makes me so glad that mob entertainment is going in a new direction and not being a content farm anymore.
first episodes were promising, then as i waited for the other episodes i had seen those shorts thinking that they we're sneak peeks of the new episodes, but turned out it didn't and i wasted my hopes on it
This reminds me when a very young kid went up to me and asked if they knew who purple girl was, I said no only because I wanted to refrain from a conversation with a child about Zaminations.
9:42 OKAY THEY RUINED MY FAVORITE FNAF FAN GAME!!!
She’s from a fan game?
9:45
JAW DROPPED
TO THE CORE OF THE EARTH.
I watched Fazbear and friends first three episodes very happily (bc, remember, those were the good ones). I started to notice a dip in quality to be more clickbaity but overall didn't mind too much bc it was just the one where they expanded with the other actual FNAF characters. And then it went horribly horribly wrong
There is only one good part I can remember, and it’s one of the batim animations. It’s where Bendy is doing some sort of chant, and Boris is just giving out travel directions. I almost fell victim to the content farm, but I’m one of the lucky few survivors.
I genuinely can never tell if they’re targeting kids or adults. Like, the presentation with popular IPs and clickbait thumbnails and stuff SCREAMS kids content, but the actual writing and content of the episodes feels a lot more like it’s intended for at least teens if not full on adults. So I have no clue.
Yeah, it's very confusing.
10:17
fun fact: this is NOT a game, you can't actually play it, you can buy worthless NFT but that is basically it because it is NOT multiplayer and it is not even a game, it is a scam
Actually OMFG I used to idolize ZAMination and Enchanted Mob when i was younger i watched their music videos and skit animations, then i lost interest after the Fazbear and friends, and didn’t watch any of the shorts cuz of the compilation tactic they used. I can’t believe it got this bad, all the sexual shit is fucking crazy, then actual NFT crypto shit!? i’m actually kind of heartbroken. 😢
don't forget what they did to ekrcoaster, that shit still makes me angry and depressed
The reason I stopped watching them was due to the fact that they kept naming the compilations new episodes and then they announced they’d be going back to music videos… I forgot about them shortly after that
I watched these in 2021 (I was 10 years old) and I loved them but I now realize how weird these are. I still enjoy some of them but I can’t believe I used to watch it as much as I did. Also, they made a new short today, I wonder what happens next.
I guess we shall wait and see.
Zamination went downhill
FAST AS HELL TOO like goddamn it fell off
To say the least.
@TheodoreTheNoise hey noise
@@MeoKidoToons yes
I had noticed that as the series continued, the designs for the animatronics became more complicated, like the Glamrocks compared with the originals, completely different art styles
All the things you were talking about in this video made me scream internally
Sorry about that lol
@@MeoKidoToons not that it's your fault, just the insane cringe fnaf stuff
this has me hurt. I thought this series were so cute until they made Minecraft girl thirst traps and reposting shit. it was so nice to just have a fun little series that wasn't controversial, just for fun
I honestly loved fazbear and friends.. but that stopped after a few episodes
i remember watching fazbear and friends and eventually I just got fed up, because it felt like I couldn't find a new video, everything just felt like a repost of something I'd watched a while ago, and yeah the comedy was there, but I would have had to regress my brain to a five year old to be able to laugh at some of it.
Pretty sad tbh
It’s so tragic to see what masterpiece has become now
Very sad.
I loved it as a kid and sometimes go back to watch the older ones since there are goat
Interesting.
I miss the old fnaf music vids
Fair.
" *QUICK* , use your Faz-keys while holdin Faz-shift to move Faz-ter"
Probably the best joke i have heard from the Zam channel
I stopped watching those when they released too many compilations the channel back then was impossible to watch in order.
I am actually glad I stopped early.
7:36 XD i don't watch this stuff but i can agree this is funny.
The rest is cursed X_X
At least he went back to music
I remember I watched a animation of theirs and it was a bendy musical animated. I actually liked their FNAF series. But then the clickbait happened.
I’m happy they’ve gone back to their old content. I’m sure if Zach and Micah weren’t busy with poppy playtime, they would’ve made a great show.
God the shows writing is so terrible..it's no wonder 90s-2000's Saturday morning cartoon livestreams are returning on yt 🤣
lol
At least they ended the show and are going back to music
not for the better though
It’s funny because fazbear and friends slowly started distancing from fnaf content in the middle of there run and just basically became “poppy playtime the official cartoon”
I remember watching it as a kid finding some of its funny being confused about the off-putting stuff and I know for a fact it hasn't gotten any better.... that is all
YES! FINALLY!!! Someone finally sees my perspective!
3:17 crazy part is that is mob's own characther
Even though I don’t even like this type of stuff cause, well I’m older now, this was like the only thing that kept my interest out of, some of the other stuff they made years ago was my favorite when I was little, which is probably why fazbear and friends stuck to me, which sucks it got ruined
The most disappointing thing of all is that they only made, like, 5 episodes before switching to all of this content farm crap. It truly is a tragedy that it started to stray from the path 😢
I loved the first 3 episodes of Fazbear and Friends and was excited for episode 4. Then they made a short then I was like “ok, these are just shorts to hold us down til the next episode”. Then they kept doing the shorts. And kept doing them. Then they eventually made an episode 4. The. They kept making shorts. It was a cool idea but then it was clickbait.
First few episodes it was decent. But then like years later it became something just nightmarish and not a good title as a “CHILDRENS” channel
As someone who grew up with Enchantedmob, I am disappointed that they made this show😩
i had no idea who these guys are but i hate it when youtubers join the dark side and make clickbate videos im prety sure i saw one of their music videos and thats it and im prety sure everyone ever has seen the faz balls joke still the only peak thing they made anyway amazing video
