So there has been a new show Cartoon Network has been broadcasting as of late that I have been seeing everywhere (mainly on tumblr and 4chan). It has only aired on Cartoon Network Mexico (the creator is Mexican btw and the show is animated in a studio located there) and actually has not been officially announced by CN itself, but a few of the shorts have been broadcast and have been leaked online. However, all but one in Spanish (although it was recorded in English initially). I'll link a couple of them in here, because the show is very good. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4ykQnqcQ0kc https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4ykQnqcQ0kc https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6SxNJMS-RqE https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FytuS2YH2Ys https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XRzu3M1jB5s (the only one in English)

(Sorry if this doesn't show up correctly, very new here)

I watched the first episode, I kinda liked it. My favorite part was when the guy took off his top hat and under it was a bowler hat.

After finding out about this the other day via the General Cartoon Network thread, I did some mild digging around and apparently:

  • The existence of this show has been a thing since it got leaked back in September 2016.
  • Supposedly, Markiplier (yes, THAT Markiplier) has a role in this show somewhere.

I may take a look at this since I really dig the character design and especially since I'm something of a follower of Mark's, but part of me kind of wants to wait until everything's in English (and doesn't look like it was recorded with a video camera, no hard feelings to the uploader).

Then again, my family's native language is Spanish, so...

EDIT: 10 bucks says Mark's the big blue bear.

[up][up] Were you trying to embed the videos? If so, you need to have it like this:

[[youtube : (video_id here)]]

That should make the YouTube video show up in your post.

Honestly at first glance, the art style really reminds me of Gashi's Artwork, which just made me love this supposed series even more! I really want to see this become a thing in America.

First time I looked at art style (especially on Black Hat and girl minion), I thought it looks like a webcomic.

Still, color me interested.

Bear in main cast makes me think of Evil Con Carne.

I commented in the Cartoon Network discussion on how this is Evil Con Carne 3.0 (League of Super Evil being Evil Con Carne), so I have reason to believe that this show draw some inspiration from that show.

Also, Markiplier is in this show? Wonder who is he voicing? Robbie Rotten? Faust? Harley Quinn? Totoro?

I would think he would voice the main bad guy or the baghead nerd, due to his voice range.

[up] I'm betting he's either that or the bag-headed dude.

Is there a source for the news of Markiplier being a voice in this?

Who is the creator? I'm interested to know how this came about.

I looked at this series. Very interesting. It'd be fun to see it get picked up for a full blown series.

Is there an English dub yet, though? I'm interested in hearing Markiplier in this. tongue

[down] Oh, I missed it.

I'm not sure how big a deal The Fourth is, but the author, Courtney Svatek, is a Big Name Fan of Villainous. Her Twitter is rapidly filling with fanart.

I like the animation on this so far, and I'm a big fan of the concept. It'd be nice if it got picked up for a full series, but who knows.

Difficult to tell without actually seeing a full episode of these characters, but Demencia seems almost like a Wild Child to me. She was biting the anti-gravity orb thing, and she just seems erratic, and unhinged in general.

She might end up being a little more similar to Dee Dee from Dexter's lab than Harley Quinn with the way she seems to take the bag head guy's inventions and become a Spanner in the Works.

Before it was a series of shorts for television, Villainous was a series of shorts on the web, which have since been removed from Ituriel's website.

People have found a few of them, so here you go.

They're, uh, less refined.

It's unavailable. But I wonder why he deleted them.

Ok. Yeah the old shorts are less refined but pretty well done for its time, and the Peter Pan short was also more mature with the language. I guess he thought CN might not want to work with him on the show if they thought it was too adult.

Alan is trying to launch a campaign for the English version to air.

I guess CN US isn't interested in it for whatever reason.

[up]Maybe someone from higher up thinks nobody would watch a show where the main characters are villains?
