I had to be a little cheap on the number of pixels because of AI and Google lens, but who played this, actually has a chance to recognize it :)

Being a fan of obscure animation, I randomly came across this Neon Noodle channel and at first I thought it was just some weird reverse animation channel doing his "cursed" cartoon edits of old caroons and experimental stuff.

Then I started reading the synopses of the videos, and I started getting the feeling that there is more going on here...

The channel seems to have its own universe, especially around this place/fictional country called Taured(probably because of that urban legend). Neon Noodle seems to exploit the idea and create a parallel universe of its own. It even has a capital city called Virelion which is mentioned in many videos.

Also I thing that guy who is churning those videos has some mental condition, not sure what. But there is something unease as you read more and more into synopses.

Is this guy(because I find it hard that someone else is with him, this seems like a pretty loner project) just making weird animations with recurring themes or he is creating a world on his own using old cartoons and turning them into something else?

I sense deep discipline especially when he is renaming the characters. Inverted Bugs Bunny is Bogz Binni and is always depressed, a failed actor. Inverted Mickey Mouse is Mikki Moz and is always depressive in you-know-what-way(there is an analog horror like video there where he unlives himself several times but in that way that you cannot see the exact act). There is also a snuff-like cartoon where some EXTREMELY creepy Bunny called Mr. Creep kills Betty Boop. And that video is borderline for YT xpulsion.

Many locations are repeating itself throught the channel, and this is one good recent example with a link:

The Starving Outcast (cursed)

SYNOPSIS: When the Cat Underground discovered that one of their higher-ranked members was an actual Cat-Fox hybrid from The Institute, he was immediately cast away from Virelion. He was doomed to starve in the countryside because he didn't know how to catch a chicken...

The guy has like, 400 videos and he is uploading them as crazy. Even more weirder is that guy has some actual animation skill. He singlehandledly colorized Swing You Sinners! frame-by-frame, by generally sticks to that Taured lore thingy.

What you think?

Takes you into some other world. Some would say that I am escaping reality. But nobody knows what reality is.
