Why I’m not the biggest fan of the direction remastered is going (rant)

Now look, I’ll give it one thing, the animation style is great, still amazes me how they managed such a clean blend of the fluid season 2 animation we know, and the earlier, rougher style in the assets, whoever came up with the idea for this deserves a raise in my eyes

Say what you want about the humor, yes, I agree, I do miss the edgy 2011 humor the original had, but it has a lot of strong moments, and I feel like not too many people who are critical of this season really acknowledge that. Simply enjoy it for what it’s trying to be, not what you want it to be.

Now, with all the positives out the way, let’s get to the negatives.

First off is the dialogue, and I don’t mean the acting, but, more on that later. In my opinion, the dialogue in this season is far weaker than previous seasons, with my number one reason being how it’s annoyingly on the nose. For those who don’t know, on the nose basically means straight forward, self explanatory, and very obvious/literal, let’s say for example, if, “Is that what you said to pickle“ was on the nose, it would probably come across as, “but you never gave pickle the same amount of support, did you taco?” In other words, this remaster suffers from this flaw, it could be because it’s trying to stick to the original season 1’s straight forward writing, but I kinda wish it didn’t, since it’s a remaster, I feel like it’s a missed opportunity with how much they’re willing to change from the original, and that’s another thing..

I hate how this season rewrites some of its episodes so drastically that it’s unrecognizable, especially the anniversary episode, and how paper fixes his “evil paper” problem, it’s unnecessary, and would probably confuse first time viewers. Speaking of which, instead of helping first time viewers by making season 1 at least a bit more watchable, it abandons that purpose and just confuses them. It messes with how first time viewers perceive the canon, due to the season never explicitly stating that it’s non-canon.

As for the acting, I don’t have much to say here, it’s ok, taco’s voice kind of gets on my nerves, instead of keeping the idea that they’re a silly and light hearted character that everyone loves and wants to win, I honestly would vote taco out if I had the chance, shes just annoying and feels like an attempt to force a laugh out of us

so yeah, I’m not the biggest fan on this remastered season, I wouldn’t recommend it for first time viewers, so on so fourth

Alright, I have a ~$1000 price range, which would be the better choice?

look, I get these two brands are known for being bashed on in the sub, but these are my top 2 considerations for an intermediate kit, the Alesis Nitro Ultimate, and the Simmons Titan 75

Personally, I don’t care much about sound, but more so about feel and size, which is why I passed on the Roland kit at this level.

Each option has its sacrifices, the Alesis has a proper hi hat stand, but not a very good ride and snare size, and the Simmons has a very well sized snare, on a stand mind you, but not a proper hi hat, and I’ve heard some ok things about the toms and crashes

so, which do you think is a better option for me? is there another option I’m overlooking? please help

PS, I’m upgrading from a Donner DED 80, so anything would be a major step up, even an Alesis nitro max lmao

What’s your favorite style in the show?

personally my favorite is mid season 2, while late season 2 and season 4 are more polished, I do come to miss the cartoony faces and expression the show had, like the goofy faces, which were also in early season 2. But I feel like mid season two is the perfect middle ground between that expressive cartoony look and quality animation, I do really miss it
