Shape Buddies is a comedic web-animated Object Show sitcom created by Conenob Animates. It follows the life of a friend group named the Shape Buddies. The Shape Buddies consist of four twelve-year-olds: Circle, Rhombus, Gem, and Cube. The show is different from other Object Shows as it has anthropomorphic shapes instead of anthropomorphic objects like Shape World, and also isn't a competition show.
The show contains blood, death, and drugs. Do NOT watch if you're sensitive to any of these things.
The show can be watched here.
Contains the following tropes:
- A Dog Named "Dog": A decent number of characters (sans Gem and Bean) are named after their shape because it is common in the universe, while others have "-y" or "-o" at the end.
- Animate Inanimate Object: Despite being simple shapes, the characters move and talk.
- Content Warning: Many of the episodes are preceded with screens that warn the viewers of their content (such as the presence of drugs, etc.)
- Running Gag: Rhombus keeps on dying.
- They Killed Kenny Again: Rhombus usually dies in the episodes he appears in.
- Villain Protagonist: Cube is a narcissistic psychopathic member of the Shape Buddies.
- Subverted Kids' Show: Watch an episode and you'll immediately understand this trope.
- Stylistic Suck: In a couple of episodes, one of the characters does a "low quality face".
- Too Dumb to Live: In episode 3, Circle finds the ticking noise, which turns out to be a pipe bomb. No guesses as to what happens next.
