[[http://marzgurl.wordpress.com/ MarzGurl]] ([[MyNaymeIs Kaylyn Dicksion]] Saucedo; the alias is a reference to [[WesternAnimation/LooneyTunes Marvin the Martian]] and [[SomethingPerson her gender]]) is one of three members of Website/ChannelAwesome who tried out for WebVideo/TheNostalgiaChick position. While neither she nor That Chick With The Goggles won the position, they were still kept on as entertainment for the site, with [=MarzGurl=] covering anime and anime-related news. Previously a videographer of anime conventions, [=MarzGurl=] has made several attempts and reattempts to reinvent herself, often failing, and often acknowledging her own failure. She finally seems to have found her voice with the Anime News Editorial, a serious commentary on current events in the medium, as well as with her ''WesternAnimation/TheLandBeforeTime'' movie reviews.

She completed the web movie ''Film/FarewellFamiKamenRider'' as a tribute to [[WebVideo/YouCanPlayThis JewWario]], although this was prior to the revelations about him in the Channel Awesome controversy.

!!This work provides examples of:

%% * ActionGirl: In ''WebVideo/{{Kickassia}}'', ''WebVideo/SuburbanKnights'' and the ''WebVideo/AtopTheFourthWall'' movie. She also acts as TheLancer during the middle part of ''WebVideo/ToBoldlyFlee'' and infiltrates the enemy command ship to perform sabotage, kicking ass the whole way.
%% * AuthorFilibuster
* AuthorTract: She opposes illegal {{scanlation}}s and streaming of anime and would rather see those things to be available legally and for a small price. Whenever this is the topic of the ANE of the week, expect this to happen.
%% * BerserkButton: When ''WesternAnimation/AnAmericanTail: The Treasure of Manhattan Island'' {{retcon}}s ''Fievel Goes West''.
%% * BigNo:
%% ** At the end of her ''Beauty and Warrior'' review.
%% ** During her Adaptation Terror of the ''Film/FistOfTheNorthStar'' live action film.
* BileFascination:[[invoked]] Her compulsion to pick up 99 cent [=DVDs=] from bargain bins and watch them.
* BottleEpisode: The Crayon Recreations, in which [=MarzGurl=] tries to summarize a cartoon's premise by drawing pictures of the characters and making them talk. She made the first one after the breakdown of her computer prevented her from editing a typical review.
* BrokenPedestal: Learning that her friend [[WebVideo/YouCanPlayThis JewWario]] was a sexual predator was a tragedy for her. Kaylyn released a video where she voices her thoughts on how those who knew Justin were affected, and whether all they had done in Justin's name was really worth it, if it was in the name of an awful person.
%% * BrownNote: To put it bluntly, [=MarzGurl=] [[{{Angrish}} takes the]] Manga/OnePiece PissTakeRap [[SuckinessIsPainful quite well]].
%% * DeadpanSnarker:
* {{Fangirl}}: In her own words, "[[https://www.youtube.com/MarzGurl#p/search/0/TpFY08EGXE4 That's]] [[WesternAnimation/LooneyTunes Marvin]], think I'm in love with him" (see also [[http://blip.tv/nostalgia-chick/nostalgia-chick-the-little-mermaid-5360667 this]], around 6:25).
%% * GentleGiant
%% * GeniusBruiser
%% * GoMadFromTheRevelation: Had a real tough time reviewing ''Manga/ArcadeGamerFubuki'', and an even worse time with ''Film/CoolWorld''. Only Linkara managed to keep her from smothering herself with the second.
%% ** Later she returns the favor for Linkara.
* HaHaHaNo: "Is [[WesternAnimation/ATrollInCentralPark it]] good? Ha ha... no, not really."
* HardWorkMontage: In her "A New Day" video, [=MarzGurl=] attempts to satisfy fans by completely changing her personality and appearance. We're treated to a montage of her raging with determination to do whatever it takes to be a crowd-pleaser. Whether this worked or not is subject to personal opinion.
* LargeAndInCharge: Whenever they need to make her imposing - the 5'8" (1.72 m) bulky frame helps.
* LimitedWardrobe: Black jumpsuit and blue sneakers. Although her last few videos have had some different outfits.
%% * {{Macekre}}:[[invoked]] Also discussed in Translation[=/=]Adaptation Terrors.
* MyFriendsAndZoidberg: In the Crayon Recreation of ''WesternAnimation/{{Jem}}'', [=MarzGurl=] put no effort into the drawings of the other members of Jem and the Holograms, any Misfit bar Pizzazz, or the orphan girls. In fact, after Pizzazz introduces herself, the other Misfits exclaim that they're also in her band, but Pizzazz tells them, "Nobody cares!"
* MasochistsMeal: One of her non-review videos showed her and two friends trying a [[http://marzgurl.wordpress.com/2011/04/19/marzgurl-challenges-the-four-horseman-burger 4 Horsemen burger]], made with the hottest peppers known to man. None of them finish it.
* MoralGuardians: Back when she first got started, [=MarzGurl=] made several cracks about how animation has been cleaned up and "sanitized" by concerned busybodies from the '60s on that looked like it would be a recurring "thing", but it never quite did.
%% * NoTrueScotsman: In her case, it's "no true anime fan".
* ProductPlacement: When Kaylyn inexplicably got a sponsorship from Manscaped to promote their line of male grooming products, she decided to enact it by responding to every troll comment with something along the lines of "You sound like someone with irritated balls, here's a discount code to go shave them".
* TheReasonYouSuckSpeech: Delivered a blistering one to Channel Awesome in her [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s9efiK8XITA video]] addressing the [=JewWario=] revelations, since they didn't care to use the correct Jane Doe in their attempt to discredit ex-producers who criticized their handling of Justin's behavior, and their sloppy attempt at redacting Justin's name opened his victims up to online harassment. She also goes after the trolls who went after the victims and Justin's widow, even though she had no idea what he was up to.
* ReTool: It took her many different attempts - while facing constant criticism from the viewers - to find her niche. Look back at her early videos and marvel at aborted series after aborted series.
%% * RelaxOVision: Uses this in her review of ''WesternAnimation/FritzTheCat'' during its more shocking and violent scenes.
* ReviewsAreTheGospel: She actively attempts to avert this, even stating at the beginning of her ''VideoGame/FinalFantasyXIII'' review that no reviewer, herself included, should tell you how to feel about any piece of media. [[invoked]]
%% * SarcasmMode: [[http://twitpic.com/51ltev This Photo.]]
* SelfDeprecation: She likes to poke fun at her acting skills, or lack thereof. In her commentary on her review of "The Last Unicorn" (her first review, the one she submitted for the Nostalgia Chick contest) she comments "Gee, I was younger back then, and thinner back then...really, everything was better back then." This doesn't stop her from mocking herself for not centering her shots of herself later in the review, either
* {{Sequelitis}}:[[invoked]] She won the respect of quite a few viewers by actually sitting through and reviewing ''all 13'' movies of ''WesternAnimation/TheLandBeforeTime'' series, plus the TV show, with many commenters urging her to quit for her own safety.
* SharedUniverse: For once being a Channel Awesome reviewer, participating in the anniversary videos as well as being a major character in two movies about a Channel Awesome reviewer each (Linkara and [=JewWario=]), and her numerous cameos and crossovers, MarzGurl is definitely part of the Reviewaverse.
* ShipTease:
** With [[WebVideo/AtopTheFourthWall Linkara]]. ("I do love you, but I love Stalin more…" and [[{{WebVideo/Kickassia}} "Take comfort in my masculine arms!"]], among others).
** "Linking up with Linkara". The fact that it's actually a threesome with WebVideo/TheNostalgiaChick makes it even better. [[spoiler:That it turns out it never happened and the two women were playing a prank on him does not.]]
** The third of [[WebVideo/TheAngryJoeShow Angry Joe's]] "Hotel Awesome" sketches: he tries to chat up all the women of TGWTG that have gathered for ''WebVideo/{{Kickassia}}'' and knocks on her door. She rushes out eagerly, but is obviously disappointed to find Joe there. So [[WebVideo/AtopTheFourthWall who]] was she expecting?
%% ** 8-bit Mickey.
%% * ShootEmUp: This first of the Translation Terror series described the ShootEmUp series "Castle Shikigami".
* StatingTheSimpleSolution: Happens in the Crayon Recreations. For example, in the video about ''WesternAnimation/HeManAndTheMastersOfTheUniverse1983'', Prince Adam tells his father that they should try invading Skeletor's lair for a change, but Adam's dad simply tells him that he has a lot to learn about being a hero.
* VictoriasSecretCompartment: She pulls a wad of bills from between her breasts in "Linking up with Linkara".
