IIRC, it really is a fanfic. The creator of the show admitted that he didn't go through any of the actual lore of the game & literally admitted to relying on fanfics.
Oh so NOW the fictional character argument matters? Total Cartoon Industry Death can't come soon enough.
Yeah, if you're going to make a black April based on her old-old design, then why make her fat? The ROTTMNT April isn't designed to be offensively ugly. She's got homages to all the Aprils in her design and color scheme.
The best response to the "You don't like this character because you're racist!" idiocy is to just say "Yes, and?"
This design is perfect actually. Imagine you're a liberal and you hate black women, you just fucking hate them but you can't outright say that because then you'd sound like conservatives who are on the other team, so you do this. In classic West Coast passive aggression, you bombard them with raceswap scraps because "people have no faith in original black characters" "people don't value your stories" "it's better than nothing right?". These raceswap scraps breed hostility but black women are conditioned to think that it's better than nothing. It's not like you were actually interested in making original black charcacters. Remember, you hate them. And like abused dogs, they become grateful for the scraps. Over time, you make the "diverse represenation" uglier and uglier. "No no, beauty and visual appeal is so eurocentric. Being protrayed as fat and frumpy is so subversive". And you know the black women won't complain because then they'd come off as whiny and you can guilt them into playing along because "the other team hates you more". Then you can humiliate them more because eventually they'll start to cosign their own abysmal caricatures.
April o Neil with the curls isn't black, she just has an 80s hairstyle. It's like the shit they pull with starfire. Look at Geena Davis or sigourney weaver in the late 80s early 90s, they all had the curly hairstyle. This new April o neil is hood rat shaniqua overdosing on Italian pizza, probably crack as well.
Was just about the post this in the AI Art seething thread, the seetherald from these kikes is gonna be glorious as more and more VAs crop up and express their disgruntlement. TOTAL VA DEATH
Recently an animator by the named of Eaghan Tilghman made a short fan-animation of Scooby Doo, which used AI voices for a couple of the characters like Fred, Daphne and Velma.
And this soon attracted the attention of former Spongebob writer Jay Lender.
Now even though he later posted this in the description.
But this didn't stop the voice actress of Daphne trying to blacklist him.
Which resulted in both of them getting tons of backlash.
We also got a few tweets from Micah Wright, who's Lender's writing partner and creator of the Nick pilot "Constant Payne".
The funny part is, this bullshit "hurting the creators" retardation could be used for the general production of the animation here too.
What the actual fuck. I remember Grey used to be chill, but I knew by 2018, she was acting a bit sus, and I've noticed that she's gotten worse every year.But this didn't stop the voice actress of Daphne trying to blacklist him.
Which resulted in both of them getting tons of backlash.
Yea, celebrities endlessly sperging out over something so small (case in point, AI) either makes me smile, pissed, or vomit.
And sooner or later, we can finally hope for total entertainment industry death
At this point DeLisle gets all her work from being guild and well-connected. She and Tara Strong are in so much shit I have a sneaking suspicion that they've prevented other women from entering the field through sheer force of being-in-everything.
