Dobbo's latest shitty Patreon update. Warning: Nookie Bear is over the top smug in this.
Th bear looks like he's on a weird mix of crack and dope, suffering from severe moodswings.
Sad thing is; I partially agree with Dobson. A lot of times, 'mature' translates to "just include gore and naked tits"... which is incredibly immature. Pretty much like overly violent video-games that are pretty much custom made to be sold to kids far too young to legally buy them on their own. I'm looking in your direction, God of War... But when it boils down to it, the presentation also matters, and while shows like Spongebob sometimes get away with humor clearly directed at an older audience - and otherwise making jokes for the whole family - the presentation still means it's not mature, no matter how it handles its themes.
The Land before Time is a good example. It handles tragic loss of your parent(s) amongst other things (and Don Bluth was a magnificent bastard for the shit he pulled in some of his movies), but you simply can't deny that it's a kids movie. Same with "Up". It handles a few quite heavy to swallow themes and does so well... but that doesn't make it a mature movie. It only makes it a kid-friendly movie with mature themes. Basically, a kids movie that doesn't talk down to kids.
That's all.
Dobby tries to insinuate that 'mature movies' aren't mature. He's right about that. He wants to say that some supposed kids movies handle these themes better. That's also correct. But where he goes astray is where he tries to insinuate that it's more mature to watch kids movies. Cause you just know that's the point he wants to make, to defend his fondness for teenage lesbians in cartoons.
A show that I already once mentioned, Wakfu, has one of the best villains I've seen in a tv show in a very long time... and it's choke full with innuendos, the likes of which american audiences can't even dream of... but those two aspects don't make it a 'mature show'.
Be that as it may, holy BAJESUS. What's wrong with that Powerpuff Girl, what the fuck happened to the cast of Spongebob, what happened to ... well, the other characters I don't give a crap about? Dobby didn't even get close to make one even remotely look like the original. How do you fuck up a character design as straightforward as Plankton? Also 5 Internetbucks say that Pokemon is traced.
Also, off chance that "butterfry" is not a mistake and is supposed to be some sort of "random access humor"?

All based on a rumor he saw online.
Granted, Japan does have a few problems with these types of things, but Dobson would be more endearing in his call to action if he wasn't such a cunt about it.
Ah, where do I start?
Well, there's a certain anniversary coming up in exactly 2 weeks and Dobson is speaking about America holding Japan accountable for something...
But the anniversary being just right around the corner is just a minor coincidence... it's not like it wouldn't be any less tasteful at any other time.
The more important issue: Dobs made a comic about Quiet's design and bitched and moaned about a girl being depicted that way. He did this twice, one time with the design, one time with the figurine. Even back then people (like me) thought about the hilarious possibilitiy that Quiet's actually a mtf transsexual.
Now, Dobby has found out about that theory and blows a fuse, why? If you ask me, cause that's the only way to save face. Nothing more.
What's wrong Dobby. I thought "representation matters". Oh wait, that was half a year ago, so it's not true anymore.
