Please watch "The Genius"
Mathew it’s not a bread stick, it was a French fry
Glad to see you are having a good time with this. XD
please watch the compliation

"Isn't the cloud a child?"
It's okay. The giant's a child, too.
oh joy
@@MathewMcKennathey'd be classmates if he could fit in the classroom.hes only ever in the playground
@@peachesplums I thought he was in the school a few times?
@@MathewMcKenna yes and the witch is his mom, it was even a episode plot that the reason he's always calm and slow talking is cause if he acts like a normal kid he could destroy the city (giant kid = giant emotions as the episode puts it)
@@MathewMcKenna watch "the name"
This episode always felt like a fever dream, only to see it a few years later and realize that it wasn't just a figment of my imagination as a child
I can imagine not being sure if it was real I’m not even sure and I only just watched it who am i
If you managed to imagine this as a child, I'd be worried about you

@@homebank7764pssst
I think he means fever
Gumball: “I thought I was the one wearing the pants in this relationship.”
Also gumball: Wears a dress and imagines a future where he marries and has kids with darwin in like the 5th episode of the show.
And in the microwave (I think) Darwin acts like the dad going to get the milk and gumball acts like a mom
To be fair that was a nightmare imagination
Darwin: *I WANT MORE KIDS!*
Gumball: D:
Plus, Gumball tends to act like/pretend to be a woman in most of the episodes too
@@purpleirken1529what does that mean😭😭😭
I think it’s really cool how the crew used actual fanart from fans and incorporated into the episode. This episode is a simultaneous love letter to their fans whilst mocking them 😂
Ben specifically said they're not mocking anyone
Fans just like to be toxic and project context that isn't there
@@dexkani9993 it's like friendly poking at how weird fandoms can be
that would be illegal fan art belongs to the artist and is automatically given a copyright
@jasonskeans3327 they asked permission from the artists first dude.
I love is episode is funny 😄 100%
The truly terrifying part of this episode is how relatebal it actually is, it was as if the creators of Gumball had taken all Wattpad owners and turned them into one person. definitely my favourite.
Also, she said "non cannon, ooc, oc drawing, ships, role-play servers and ext, ext" something ANY artist, writer's, fans and new could definitely tell what she's on about.
@@average-art3222 Just be glad there was only the mention of one-shots in her spiel and no mention of lemons. Or this would would have been way worse! 😰
@@average-art3222 Exactly
@@CaramellaBearOfficial So true, that would have been a tragedy😂😂
@@CaramellaBearOfficial ironically Sarah is probably the only fanfic writer who will write the most unhinged and out of the world ship and yet is repulse by lemons and anything 18+
Its official gumball is the most unhinged children's show everywhere
most unhinged children's show ive heard of is uncle grandpa tbh
but gumball is definitely 10 times more creative with its unhinged-ness
@@RenderingUser I was about to say lol, I recall Uncle Grandpa being a lot more unhinged, Gumballs just having fun in the eyes of Grandpa lol
The last cartoon I watched was Adventure Time and seeing this made me realize that it was nowhere near as unhinged as I thought it was compared to other cartoons.
Flapjack is way weirder though
I kind of feel like it's the child friendly South Park. Though, you can disagree if you want.
I never used to understand Sarah in this episode, but then I started actually writing on AO3, and now I totally get it.
Oh no
😭 I understand her but from an outside view of "some people rlly do write all that"
I used to never understand Sarah either, but now that I'm older I'm reading fanfics on Wattpad (I also write on Wattpad too, but I haven't done fanfics)
@@rayanna7188Wattpad? Have you checked out ao3?
What's AO3🙃
"Can you imagine finding out a classmate had written a shipfic about you and someone who wasn't your girlfriend?" Unfortunately, yes. One of my friends had this happen to them in high school. Some folks don't know boundaries.
How do you even find out about that. There's no way the fanfic writer would ever admit that, right? ....right?
I mean, I don't see what's wrong with shipping like that
Just make sure NO ONE besides you will ever know about it, because that's just inherently creepy
If you want to base characters on me and someone else, like VERY loosely based. We’re talking basic personality traits and quirks/interests. I suppose?
But, what Sarah is doing, especially with that Darwin and Gumball wedding and Richard with that orange Karen Bitch (real name Felicity). We’re going to have some issues
as someone who’s been watching gumball since she was like 8 and never being weirded out by anything thats happened (somehow) i always enjoy ur reactions to full episodes LOL
It is easier to deal with if you’re growing up with something.
Right?? I am never really weirded out by anything, and it wasn't until I started watching reaction videos that I realized I was maybe a bit strange in that regard lol
This episode really accurately describes how insane the shipping community can become. And as someone of that community who is considered tame, I feel it so much! It's insane where I can see a relationship where there is none!
Same here… same here😂
As someone of that community which is considered so toxic that Chernobyl's radiation can compare itself to light. same here
Ikr
Same!
Violent multi-shipper here and,, yeah
As someone apart of shipping communities- I can contest that some people definitely take it too far. But most obsessed fans do go through that phase and eventually tame out. 😂
Yeah, I ship a bunch of characters with each other too but I'm very tame about it XD
But do they write ships about their actual classmates? Or one of your parents with somebody else's?
@@ScionStorm1there's a difference between shipping real people and fictional characters. Plus, if someone finds those writings, you know damn well why they were hidden.
It's hilarious how when Sarah has Larry propose to Mr.Smalls instead, he just says yes without her writing it in and somehow has a wedding dress prepared.
Props to Matthew for being able to monetize the destruction of his mind.
He gonna need a dose of Bluey after this...
A few things you probably didn't get, is the purple looking darwin and gumball with wings poorly drawn are basically poking fun at all the unoriginal gumball oc's. Some people actually got kind of mad on the internet but its the internet so yeah. The Gumball x Carrie thing I was surprised they got because basically it was a crack ship made YEARS ago and somehow like a thousand fan fics spawned from it with mostly teenage gumball and carrie. The last one is just the creepy humanized incest shippers.
Wait… I think I’ve seen you somewhere before. Do you watch JeromeASF?
Not really. Those Gumball OC's were actually real and made by someone on DeviantArt and that's why people got mad. The creator responded with the fact that they were ramping up stakes and that their reactions weren't at the art being bad but rather at the fact that it would probably be pretty weird if you met another version of yourself.
@@D0Y0u3v3r Thank you! People like to run with the toxic narrative
They aren’t blood related. So I don’t see a HUGE issue with Darwin and gumball But I personally don’t ship it and stuff.
(Edit: what I mean is I don’t really care if other people ship it. As long as they don’t make it weird. Let’s keep it PG please at the very least-)
It's mentioned that Darwin is Richard and Nicole's adopted son so... People are shipping Gumball with his brother. In my opinion, that just sounds wrong and illegal.
To be honest, the most chaotic episodes haven't been seen yet.
For instance there's an episode where Gumball gets sucked into an RPG and names himself MYBUTT and robs his neighbour; an episode where Richard almost destroys the world by getting a job and an episode with a zombie epidemic in the school.
And the very last episode of the show is pretty wild and scarring in itself.
The joy is one of my favorite episodes.
11:24 Yes, in fact after a certain episode titled the Matchmaker, Darwin and Carrie are together, pretty sure he's had a crush on her since around the episode Halloween cause he kisses her as a ghost
I didn’t think it was possible but, I kinda feel *bad* for Matthew.
He likes being tortured
same, poor guy's risking his sanity for us
6:14 I literally write fanfiction, but if I found out my classmate wrote a fic about me, I'd be weirded whether they shipped me with my significant other or not 💀
I'm not normally a man of violence, but same.
The show is diegetically a cartoon. Cartoon logic is their normal. Nobody can die, nothing is permanent, pain is comedy. You may as well be confused that Willie Coyote doesn't die when blown up with dynamite, Tom and Jerry can piece themselves back together when they shatter, or Pinkie Pie deflating like a balloon when she's sad.
Often he is confused.
7:42 the joke here is that they are canon but gumball ruins Larry's chance to propose to Karen anytime he gets lol.
This episode is a wonderful reminder that no matter how cringe I think I am or how cringe I think my fanfic is, there will always be things more cringe
All fanfics are cringe
The amazing world of gumball literally looked up fanfic and created what they found
As someone who grew up watching gumball seing Mathews pure confusion gives me so much happiness
same
I actually comment this two times but, Here are some episodes that would be interesting to see your reaction.
-The Recipe: I dont know why this episode is not so popular but I feel like it's one of the darkest episodes and most underrated ones.
-The Trilogy of the episodes, The Hug, The Awkardnes, The Cringe: Definitely the most uncomfortable episodes of the show. I don't think you'll get over these.
-The Slap: if the others episodes you watched didn't traumatize you enough, this one will.
-The Joy: this episode traumatized many. thats all i just gonna say.
-The Pizza: This episode gets so surreal. And it explains a little bit about Larry and his jobs.
-The Shell: a heartwearming episode with some pretty memorable scenes and character development, You're going to like gumball in this one.
-The Void: I'm sure it's already been recommended but it's an incredible episode.
As an animator, this is actually really fun to watch. You can tell the animators had a good time.
And seeing your horrific reactions made it even funnier 🤣🤣
Love the quote: "I wouldn't use it for evil. But i would use it for me."
Same!
this is my favourite episode and its terrible at the same time. amazing
also you're so surprised about the messed up fanfic thing, but trust me people write way way WAY worse irl
I think this episode was actually meant to address the shipping happening 😂 they actually looked up real ships and fan art too
@@Meamery Lol, and fun fact, those drawings were actual fan arts too
@@average-art3222 HELP?? WHAT 😭😭😭😭
10:06 Cloud and Giant (Masami and Hector) go to the same school, there is literally a T Rex student at Elmore (city the show takes place in) Junior High, so they're around the same age
The van and entity inside remain a mystery, but the gist of him is that EVERYTHING he sells looks normal, but has reality altering properties
Also, with the notebook, we see how literally everything is taken, so half of these stories were probably innocent enough, but got RUINED.
This is my favorite episode in the entire series because of how wild and crazy it got. I can’t stop laughing every time I watch this.
Finally....
Scarring Matthew McKatthew is always what the entity wants
14:28 here you go folks, the moment his soul gave up on this world
I'd also like to mention 5:11 for when he realizes what he's about to see
Just expect chaos when the awesome store and the shadow shopkeeper show up. And gumball in general. The awesome store has a lot of weird but cool stuff in it
Isn't there an episode where every object is revealed to be living breathing thing or is that a figment of my imagination.
No that is an episode
@@skyhigh0183 It’s called The World.
that episode is The World
Not every thing is living just that most unexpectedly are. The Potato clearly shows that. Regardless, the episode you refer to is The World.
@@mollyfessel4127 is that a jojo reference
If gumball ends up getting more seasons I feel like we need some expansion on the awesome store. I mean he’s been responsible for so much stuff that happened in this show, and we still don’t even really know what or who he is and where he even gets all this stuff from. Plus he’s basically almost ended the world a few times and he’s only getting the cops on him now? Also, if he had an notebook that could bassicly make him god by just writing one sentence, why is he even selling this stuff. In fact, why is he selling any of his things if he could just use them to take over the entirety of Elmore! Why is he just selling them to randos instead? So many questions, not enough answers.
This doesn't really make it any less strange, but I hope you find comfort in the fact that the cloud and the giant are the same age
every time the AWESOME STORE comes into an episode, you know its gonna be a wild one.
THE CONSOLE
2:16 It's simple he's selling magical objects that can control reality. If the SCP Foundation were real, this guy would be a big danger. He is the number one most wanted person that the Foundation wants to capture with all the artifacts and items he has on him.
Gonna be real, when I was in 7th grade, there were so many instgram pages of shipping kids together. Like, actual kids from that school, and I knew who they were cuz they were in my class. One of the most awkward things I've dealt with 💔💔
When I was in 7th grade back in 2018 I saw fan art by someone of them shipping me and my twin brother. 😳
@@StFigarlandGarling WHATT
@@theartiest yeah it was real awkward.
As obvious as it is that strange things go on in Elmore, it’s people aren’t able to ever notice because The Void/Elmore itself keeps the characters from noticing when characters, items, and events are erased or introduced out of nowhere. It’s a really interesting story actually. Gumball is just truly an experience that you can’t get anywhere else.
14:18 we were shown how she tried to use metaphors and they happen literally, so at least a few of those weird results are not intentional on her part, just the unfortunate consequence of what she wrote hapening on the most literally way posible.
The fact that I completely understand Sara's explanation of what she's been writing is not good
I have watched this episode so many times and thanks to you I have noticed Nicole and Misami's mom riding the unicorn together oh my god I love it and hate it at the same time
same
I kinda ship it tho
They really got me with the "Let's eat Bobert". I've been laughing for almost 5 minutes. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Here I am once again asking on behalf of us all for Mathew to watch the rob saga, episodes: The Void, The Oracle, The Nobody, The Nemesis, The Bus, The Disaster/ReRun, The Ex, The Future, The inquisition
This was a show I got into when I was 14 and 15 and none of the horrors he’s experienced from it occurred for me or my siblings
I grew up on Gumball and JoJo, to me that episode was normal and funny. Okay, I was a little surprised that they included the Cartoon Network logo, but that's basically it.
People actually write shipfics about their classmates, at least from my experience in school and what I hear from my younger siblings
To answer your question about Darwin having a crush on the ghost: yes, and no. In the episode "the words" he calls the ghost, Carrie, "an emo freak", but that was actually WAY before he had a crush on her. His crush on her was confirmed in the episode "Halloween" where he’s turned into a full ghost and kisses her, and in one of the episodes they start to date. So in this season, this was after they started dating, they were dating.
This brings the definition of fanfiction to life😊
so does the Adventure time ep where Finn gets tha magic bag and gets mini versions of all the characters and tries to make himself date everyone
@@anniemadeit21That was.... I forgot that was even a thing💀
"that's just body horror"
*Darwin gets immediately torn to shit*
As someone who writes/reads fanfiction there can be a lot of body horror (especially in angst)
Scaramouche x dottore from genshin impact is the most obvious example I have
I love this episode, I wonder if I should be scared since I could understand what Sarah said when she was writing fanfiction.
Im pretty sure that only the Watersons know about the awesome store.
No, we’ve seen references to other characters purchasing items from the Awesome Store (Leslie and Penny in “The Console,” and Rob in “The Disaster/The Rerun”).
"How do they do that?"
I'm pretty sure we have all asked that question before at one point or another when we think of Darwin's relationship with Carrie.
This show is so aware it’s kinda scary
I love watching you react to thinks like this mainly cuz I find it wild on how much it jarring to you, while me and everyone I’ve known to watch gumball is just chill about it and find it hilarious
Matthew is the best at being traumatized
Can we talk about how 14:26 implies Sarah somehow wrote 2 entire pages on just anime Darwin.
I would really like to see Mathew react to "That Handsome Devil" songs, mainly "Charlie's Inferno" and "Savages" (also, "Eristocrats", "Karmakaze", "Powderbomb", "Wintergreen", "Yada Yada" and "Sleep it Off" are good options too)
If you are worried about death in this show, you should watch the toast episode
17:37 that was the scariest sound effect you could have made!
oh, and I'd say his icing is a clothing like spandex. He can probably take it off. The badge therefore only pins through the clothing.
This episode is iconic 😅
** ThE aWeSoMe StoRe**
A van with anything and everything
🌟magical🌟 Maybe it has eye bleach or anti trauma oranges or smth
I’m genuinely surprised with what they got away with in this episode like that brief moment of female human gumball about to marry her step brother, OMG!
I like Human Darwin's design
Best fish husbando
I am SO GLAD you watched this!! This is one of my favorite episodes
10:02 the giant is a child too
his name is Hector
12:13 I've "translated" these terms before and I shall gladly do so again
Noncanon - not aligned with the source material a fanfiction such as what Sarah's writing is based off of. For example, if a character from a show were noted to love grapes, but someone wrote a fanfiction where they hated grapes, that would be considered noncanon.
AT - an outdated term meaning Alternate Timeline
AR - an outdated term meaning Alternate Reality
^people nowadays would either use "AU" (Alternate Universe) or "Canon Divergence" to get those across, with an AU taking place in another setting/world entirely, and canon divergence being in the same universe as canon but with different events occurring in that world as opposed to canon.
Ships - Derived from "Relation*ships*", shipping is when people take two (or sometimes more) characters and pair them together in a romantic or sexual relationship, if not both, despite wherever the characters actually stand with eachother in canon.
One Shot: A fanfiction consisting of one chapter, typically of shorter length, though longer single-chapter works may also be considered one shots depending on who you ask.
OOC- Out Of Character. Similar to noncanon but a term exclusively limited to the depiction of characters in fanfiction. The grape analogy works here, too.
OC drawings - drawings of Original Characters, who are inserted into fanfiction typically to serve purpose to the story or to be shipped.
OTP - One True Pairing. Used to refer to one's favorite ships. Unlike the name suggests, one can have multiple OTPS.
Fanservice - Content made specifically to cater towards fans of a piece of media. Typically fluffier content. Usually comes in the form of ship teases or characters being used for sex appeal, if not both. Can be used as a tactic to keep people interested in a piece of media.
"That's like...body horror"
**proceeds Into body horror scene**
6:09 according to being popular CZcamsrs with millions of fan art, 100% imaginable.
10:06 yes, but Hector (the giant) is also a child that goes to the same school, he appears sometimes, but you see only his foot
11:44 Did he forget that Gumball's a... cat?
14:23 LMAO. SPEAKING OF WHICH
16:34 I feel like that'd just make them stop existing instead of going back to normal tho
19:19 I guess unless it's written like that
This episode aged well to Shipping in Fandoms or basically Wattpad
And also I always think Sarah has a Deviantart and Wattpad acc or probably she is a Wattpad kid
"There is no way fanfic writers/shippers would write something like that!"
Oh you sweet summer child.
I was literally wishing for another one of your videos cause I was bored and here you are
The amazing world of gumball is truly something 😌
It still scares me how Sarah added “one shots ever here and there” to this day.
I knew this episode would scar you for life and was so looking forward to it
Bro Mathew got a new catchphrase that being “what the f###”
Mathew is slowly going insane and 90% of this is attributed to the amazing world of gumball
If you haven’t already you should watch both evil turtle episodes, they’re so funny and creepy at the same time
Mathew is slowly turning insane from these videos.
He clearly has not watched the furby episode
@@DiceHeadOstrichIsverystupid *furby*
oh man i don't remember the furby episode. i must've repressed the memory
@@RanjSinha i could've sworn I wrote furby
Theres a furby Episode?
@@timefliesaway999 yes
14:22 "That's like body horror!"
Literally a second after he says that:
I can only imagine his reaction if he reacts, one day, to Villainous.
Especially the villain orientation videos, there are none in english only in spanish with english subtitles.
I mean the anime style used in this series at points do make me wish we could have an anime styled series put on adult swim or something. Following Nicole in an alternate universe involving that backstory of hers, full of action and romance, and drama, oh and violence.
13:48 i suggest you watch "the egg" to learn about her. Her name is Felicity Parham and this episode will teach you all you need to know about her.
Great reaction!
And 1 thing
Sarah is basically any Wattpad kid who ships random ppl who interacts with each other for 0.001 second
when i saw this, i put everything down, i just HAVE to watch this XD this episode was SUCH a fever dream bro i love it
This is one of my favorite episodes
11:42 gotta say it if i get married i dont exactly would ask for my wife to wear cat ears along with her dress......BUT! if she wears them i actually would be deeply grateful lmaoooo
10:51 No one gonna question the noise? 😂
Yeah, what is the noise?
Great video as always.
Who else think he should do "The Console" episode at some point?
10:11 The giant is also a child
We need to get this guy to watch like an episode of Bluey or Sofia the First songs reaction or... Snoopy out of context if that's a thing I'm assuming it is. And while I'm at it I'm gonna casually request a Sonic Frontiers music reaction
the giant is also a child
11:23 Carrie, the Ghost is Darwin's Girlfriend
