What is that supposed to mean? He was not interesting even at the time

He is, this came out only a few years after the Onceler

No wonder the show flopped

Dementia is literally just Power from Chainsawman with a crush innit

>>153246128
I liked the original characters in this but the crossover aspect really sucked and I dont think the show had any chance to ever get off the ground because of it. Im glad the whole "crossover" phase is dying, people dont really enjoy seeing their favorite works being shit on by anpther one or you have to create some sort of convolted "everyone is equal" nonsense to keep all fans happy. Its just not good writing

>>153246128
Apparently his creator was so butthurt at the idea he was petrified in the OK KO crossover that he went out of his way to say that it wasn't the REAL black hat in that episode, right?

>>153246128
the weirdest thing about Villainous is that they released like 3 episodes where there was absolutely no crossover stuff and they were genuinely good and the type of thing that should have been able to be stretched out into a full show, but they just never did.
Black Hat being an all powerful being who never actually DOES anything would've been a perfect twist for the premise as well. His ego would have him consider his entire business model as "beneath him", and you could probably fit in some little thing at the finale like "I'm just doing this to pass the time, a hobby for an immortal like myself." Similar to that Doorman character from Deadlock except Black Hat does everything half-assed because he's not as into it as he was originally, but he's already done all the work setting up the company so he may as well follow it through until he really gets fed up.
IDK, I guess characters like him are technically open to anything so it's hard to come up with something concrete that works on an episode-to-episode basis.

>>153246128
Brown hands made this meme.

>>153246128
I usually hate these potential man memes, but its justified here. Watching him kill random CN characters in fun, but having all the other villains bow down to him just feels kind of lame.

>>153246128
This show seemed to have the potential to be THE breakout show like TDZ or Hazbin but it didn't. Is it because it was Spanish only?

Dude, we've had this discussion way too many times. The thing is, people take crossovers and orientation videos way too seriously, seeing them as a way to belittle other villains and series when they were just parodies of the tropes and mistakes writers had to use to make their heroes beat the villains from other shows.

Besides, many of the creators of the parodied series collaborated on the crossovers, giving their approval and supervising them, like Ian Jones and Tom Warburton.

>>153247673
doesn't Dem predate Power?

>>153247897
The thing is, that's exactly what Black Hat is; he is evil itself, not a person but a concept personified in a body. His existence is also the existence of all the bad things that happen in his world. He doesn't need to do anything to be evil, just entertain himself.

>>153246128
didn't he show up in the OK KO crossover special where he was one of the characters who was defeated and turned into stone, but then later on they handwave it as "that wasn't the real Black Hat, that was a clone so his undefeatability still stands!"

>>153247746
>people dont really enjoy seeing their favorite works being shit on by anpther one

This is what I don't understand about this damn discussion: Robot Chicken, Mad, and anything else you see on the internet does exactly the same thing, and in many cases in more aggressive ways, but you don't see anyone complaining about it.

>>153248192
Because unlike Villanous, they are actually funny.

>>153248234
So that's the problem? They just don't like villainous, and they have to make such a drama about it?

Black Hat is basically a lovecraftian outer god by design. Flug is more the protagonist with Black Hat being "that thing you DO NOT fuck with that sort of influences shit" like in Lovecraft stories

>>153248192
It's because those shows are inherently comedic (debatable if they succeed on that) parodies that don't take themselves seriously or expect you to take them serious. Villainous despite being a comedy takes itself seriously enough where having the ooky spooky big bad curbstomp every other popular character reeks of lame wish fulfillment.

>>153248107
>OK KO
Black Hat duplicate that was a statue. They confirm this double had no actual power and they play around with the other doubles (especially Buff Hot) in later canon material
>Victor and Valentino
Sends Demencia and Flug to their world in a crossover ep. They capture the hero squid kid and leave where Black Hat presumably devours him. He also shows up as an easter egg in other eps including newspaper clippings of weird happenings and as a cosmic shadow when they are in space or some astral plane in one episode

There's also some other mexican show where pictures of Black Hat and Demencia show up on some wall board at a bar or something.

>>153248269
I find that whenever bitching about Villainous and Black Hat comes up, its usually from powerfags who hate the idea of him stomping <insert their favorite character here>

>>153248353
>Black Hat duplicate that was a statue. They confirm this double had no actual power and they play around with the other doubles (especially Buff Hot) in later canon material

Sounds lame as fuck, would been more easy to just take the hit and move on, no wonder people are shitting on Black Hat.

>>153247994
Nah it got a dubs and is also pretty big in Japan. It just got fucked by Warner shit. Then they went pseudo indie while releasing books and doing that spinoff based the Heist comic protags.

Now there's supposed to be some Villainous announcement in about a week and a half

>>153248428
I mean considering he already no sold medusa stare before that was even a thing it kinda tracks.

Theres a differnece between a joke and a show that occasionally tries to take itself seriously and then says things like AKU and the greater darkness he spawned from are just pussies compared to this totally canon character made by some.mexican 5 years ago.

The people complaining about the show haven't seen a single episode. There's dark comedy, interesting storylines, violence, and none of that gay drama or preachy speeches.

And above all, there are some really, really hot girls. If you watch all this and you're still focused on complaining about something as insignificant as a non-canonical crossover, then you're either a faggot or an idiot.

>>153248800
To be fair Black Hat casually popping a planet does put him way above Aku even back then. Now it's not even a question with those books that got storytimed way back.

>>153248800
To be fair, AKU was one of the villains who was treated with the most respect in the orientation videos, with the added bonus that he wasn't humiliated or tortured at the end of his episode.

>>153248862
Dude, what the hell, we start our sentences in exactly the same way.

>>153248862
That is the kind of shit that is annoying about Black Hat. He's literally an outsider who was never part of certain "something" before when he shows up everyone falls on their knees to not be ass kicked by a dude who TOTALLY existed before he appeared, despite that certain "something" is like a decade or two older than Black Hat's inception.

Fortnite is biggest reason why crossovers are so lame now, they're just ADs not genuine attempts to make stories or fun fanservice

Maybe. Frankly the crossover cameos was just fluff. The setting already has plenty of fun OCs

>>153248960
I like these two as enemies. I don't like pissy and I don't like blackhat's smug aura. And their crossover nonsense.These two deserve eachother.

What is it with Latin/South American CN and crossover cameos? They get to have them happen with their original shows. In contrast, the US shows only ever do crossovers when they're a big event and never for short gags/cameos anymore, and when they do it's only ever with shows that are currently running.

>>153251657
Mexican shows like having more fun

>>153248850
I hope we get more G-Lo. She is cute and I want to see her corrupted to join team villain

>>153246128
Keep in mind in universe those videos are Black Hat's sponsored commercials, is in his best interest to appear strong.

>>153248912
This. And the sad part is that it’s not even necessary. It’s got the exact same energy as those old Deviantart OCs where the tartlet makes their villains basically more eviler than Itachi and Freiza combined out of our 13 year old energy. And from what I’ve seen of the show, it’s basically unnecessary since the show more or less stands on its own without the crossover elements. Could have gotten the same point across of Black Hat being the ultimate evil by having like old-timey depictions of Black Hat casually starting the black plague with a sack full of threats or sinking the Titanic or casually dropping an apple in the Garden of Eden or so on.

Mind, I get at the end of the day they’re gags, and only autists seriously try to argue this one show’s OC is more powerful and evil than Aku considering Aku never so much as thinks of him in his home series. But it does feel rather superfluous and gave me the wrong impression of what the show was going to be about until I gave it a proper chance, which is a shame.

>>153248850
There IS no show. There's like 2 episodes and you have to scour the Internet to find them.

>>153247897
Honestly the heist comic was exactly the kind of story this series needed. Blackhat is a terrifying otherwordly force that we don't even meet, we just follow a couple C and D listers getting into trouble.

He was never interesting, even back then he was the
>"guys look at my cool edgy mega powerful oc"
Type of character and the proper term for the male characters is Gary stu

>>153246128
He was the least interesting part of his own show and the new bit with him just beating everyone came off with about the same tone as the strong bad sketch from robot chicken or pretty much anything from flashgitz that isnt space king
Except its even shittier because it acts like you are legit expected to take it seriously instead of just being dumb comedy

>>153252738
>Deviantart OCs where the tartlet makes their villains basically more eviler than Itachi and Freiza
honestly with how that short was blackhat fell further than dumb deviantart ocs and is more like on the level of that one clown who was way too into his own xenoverse 2 character, you know the "king of natural selection" or some dumb shit that just looked like bojack dressed as jiren

>>153253486
I did like they still brushed with that aspect of the setting though near the end and it was appropriately portrayed as terrifying beyond the pale shit

>>153246128
i wanna what happened to this show did it got cancelled? it was super popular in 2016 but then it was just gone

>>153253675
Got screwed by the Warner and cartoon network shit that was/is going on. Though Alan was smart enough to retain the rights to the IP and characters and since then had to adjust course to uodate and remove the CN stuff due to that (some of the supplementary comics and books had to be postponed to fix em on this front since they are tied to his planmed story and the ongoing Heed arc). They went sorta indie since then but there is supposed to be a big announcement on the 26th so we'll see what comes of that.

Since the 6 episodes of the show there's been a couple of books released as well that Heist comic (which the spinoff series will be based on which takes place after Heedious Heart) and I think some ARGs. A few of em got storytimed here awhile back

>>153251657
Companies do it for marketing
South Americans do it because they are genuinely autistic for animation to an insane degree
If it was up to them then Pibby would been a thing

>>153254037
This. Its also why their lineup (both for CN and Adult Swim) is way better than in the US

>>153247673
There are these things called Archetypes

>>153251657
Because mexicans actually love cartoons and anime

>>153254037
It makes sense because in some South American Nations they straight up ran marathons of cartoons with 8 hours per day every weekend to the point that even people without access to cable are able to watch A LOT of cartoons
The Simpsons in Argentina and Woody Woodpecker in Brazil are great examples of this phenomenon

At the end of the day there's just nothing cool about a character who can just beat everyone. Especially when they're trying so hard to make him cool like with Black Hat.
