Madara: "What kind of adult goes all out against children?"
Slade: "F*ck them kids, these hands rated T for trauma."
Madara had a child murk his own friend wile another friend watched. When war hit he was fighting teens and adults 😂😂😂
Fax😂 though I think Cyborg and Starfire were the only to who didn't get victimized by Slade
@@johnjames7289 what friend died
@@sush1-ofc1I believe they're talking about how Madara set Obito up to witness Kakashi killing Rin
@@evangedeon2194 ooohhh i misread as it being madara's friend and not the child's friend that died
Slade was on another level. He saw an audience full of innocent children and said "Aight, today we're starting real life lessons"
fr
Lesson one: Don't fuck with Slade.
Lesson two: See lesson one.
@@talleywa5772 Oh it gets better
Joey Wilson in the show yet don't mention that it's him
( Jericho blonde kid emerald eyes. Mute
Yeah he's only mute becaus Slade didn't get to him in time to save him from getting his throat slit
( Which caused Slade and his wife to get a divorce which is why he's looking for apprentices he's lonely. He lost the kids in the divorce)
Honestly, Jericho and Grant were treated better by Slade in the comics. Original run of the Judith contract ( Jericho was the Judas for Wilson's family and Tara was the Judas for the Titans.
To sum up slates backstory in the comics It's I lost the kids in the divorce and I'm bored
Lesson Three: *I am above Mr. Popo in the pecking order.*
lmao Perfect summary.
"You can't beef with children!"
Slade: "....and I took that personally"
How do you have 1k likes but no replies
Imagine if Slade was in the world of my hero academia. This man would've made little kids who think that being a hero is cool, fun and all realise just how grueling it is in reality and give them immediate second thoughts.
At that point, Deku would’ve just used his power to break every bone in his own body so he has an excuse not to mess with Slade
@@sentientmustache8360 Bro, Slade would force EVERY student in Class 1A into a vigilante arc, not just Deku
nah slade would eat them kids UP…
Slade in MHA sounds *terrifying.* forget AFO, slade’s a way better manipulator than that potato.
@@nostalgiclly8241 Ayo
the fact that this man was piecing up these SUPERPOWERED teenagers shows how different he is, man was in robins head rent free with 5 star service.
You know how fucked you have to be to live rent free in a dudes head after death whilst continuing to beat the fuck out of him?
Slade said Robin owed him rent in his own mind
@@adnelg319 sonned him so hard he thought his parents came back to life

The commitment Slade had to child abuse is ridiculous, horrifying and impressive

bruh this made me Bust ngl
@@PowerJDK the fuck
He’s not as good as my dad
@@newmoonwithface bust out laughing. tf you on?
I love how slade is like pure evil and destroys legit everyone and then the only time he wanted to help them was because HE SAID HE WAS THE ONLY ONE TO TORMENT THE TITANS single handedly STOPPING THE DESRTUCTION OF EARTH just because he wanted to mess with the titans
Omniman "Earth isn't YOURS to conquer!" type beat
A petty reason. Deffo in character for Slade
Slade is the type of guy that would cure the cancer of child just so he can woop that nigg@'s ass for the next years.
So your saying he saved the world to fuck with some teenagers (that’s fucked up)
They’re practice since he can’t beat Bats still.
Slade was one of the most savage villains in cartoon history hands down
orochimaru would like to have a talk with you: the nigga was doing guman experiments for fun
Yeah man, I was so terrified when I saw this video, Slade was truly a monster that could only come from someone who was once a human being, what he did to Terra grooming her like that was disturbing to me even as a child. Teen Titans, Statik Shock, the original Young Justice, all the old cartoons seriously tackled a lot of deep topics and issues in the world
@@slkjvlkfsvnlsdfhgdght5447 1. "One of" 2. Anime≠Cartoons.
@@slkjvlkfsvnlsdfhgdght5447 nah orochi was fucking with kids because he was scared of dying, slade was fucking with kids for the fun of it
“Don’t lose control, don’t lose control.”
“Naive girl, how can you lose something you never had.”
That line was straight vicious 😭
Slade basically said "YOU HAVE NO CONTROL, I AM THE CONTROL."
@@Nopeasaurus I can read this in his voice and I love it
Let's be honest we remember this:
czcams.com/video/mCfYi7634rU/video.html
Slade sits quietly, fiddling with the puppet strings.
Slade is not a human bro a menace to society 😂😭🤦♂️
Saying Slade is a menace is an understatement, he is literally That Guy
i thought was deathstroke? is it not
@@tajh6463 Slade is His Actual last name.
Deathstroke is his villain name
Yeah
@@tajh6463 they are the same. But obviously since teen Titans was a kids show they thought slade would be a more appropriate name
He's that guy pal, he's that guy
Slade already being in the Ferris wheel cart sitting in the darkest corner watching beast boy and terra have a date gave me goddam whiplash 😭😂
Its a metaphor for how that creepy groomer that preyed on little girls or teenagers in their youth can feel like he's in their subconscious trauma even during innocent wholesome sweet moments on dates with guys their age that treat them really well & fully respect them. And just like Beast boy fought against Slade it feels like they have to fight to help them hear the trauma & be comfortable receiving & giving affection, intimacy, connecting with and trusting another human being again.
lol okay I made all that up but as an adult looking back it can be interpreted that way.
@@neltins5308 nah I’m pretty sure that was intentional
@@neltins5308 Pretty sure that was the whole point
Like with that episode where he was ripping Raven's costume and shit
Yeah, but we do have to remember that beast boy spun the block on his ass Like seriously, he had to run his b**** a** away. Because that's what slade really is a bitch
I bet he's in the corner saying "what the heck is this weak ass rizz" lmao 🤣🤣
The entire episode of Slade just BEATING the shit out of Robin was so tense and horrifying. Ron Pearlman deserves all the awards for his performance as Slade.
The fact this man’s in a so-called kids show but is the biggest menace to society in cartoon history (and that’s coming from adults) is the literal definition of “these hands are rated E for everyone”
On god
Nah stinkmener and omniman are bigger cartoon menaces
@@unkown981 yeah but omniman isnt for kids
@@unkown981 But we’re talking about kid shows, you think Invincible and the Boondocks are kid shows lol
@@unkown981 did yall forget about reverse flash?
Slade really went from a skilled martial artist, to a world-ending cataclysmic villain.
Put this man's mask next to the definition of "Monster."
Put it on Chris Hansen's mantle
Slade really showed a whole generation an entirely new level of evil bruh, no joke as a kid I had no clue how menacing dudes could be till Slade pulled up
That whole "Slade in Robin's head" thing blew my mind
Slade, a fictional character, pushed phone companies to develop face calls. A absolute demon
Ain’t no way
Slade was like a puberty phase of Deathstroke after the Lazarus pit just like the 2nd red X for Jason Todd because in the movie Jason Todd has grown up but it was never mentioned where Jason Todd went after being resurrected by the Lazarus pit in a still teenager body in the same short period Grayson Dick was with teen titans before growing up and returning to batman as Nightwing.
Man's was facetiming in 2004🤣
I'm glad my man slades getting the representation he deserves, truly a menace to the teen titans.
@our hero thanks for the potato wedge tutorial, bout to eat good tonight!
Same. I'm glad CJ made a dedicated video of Slade, he wasn't just a menace bro, he's the epitome of "That Guy".

@@staysolidshades254 yes i agree but im watching youtube.
Fun fact : In the comics , Slade beat up Beast Boy and put him in a coma , and it was left very clear that the sole reason why Beast Boy wasn’t waking up was because his ass got beat up so bad by Slade that he thought he was DEAD
Slade is the class -A- SSR+ VILLAIN, he do both monologing, badass fighting technique, and manipulated both viewers and characters at the same time. He still giving me blue balls even when i'm 25.

Slade really saved Robin just to keep beating the hell out of him, that's some next level menace activity
On god
Yeah
Reminds me of mushibugyo the justice guy
No even batman can do that lol
And it was not even slade himself.
The fact that Slade is the toned-down version of his comic version is insane. Shot Impulse (the 2nd Kid Flash) in the knee with a shot gun, point-blank. His "relationship" with Terra, ugh. Forced his daughter to be high on pills and to prove her loyalty by having her gouge out her own eye to be "Just Like Daddy". Slade Wilson is a DEMON.
Still not worse than joker
@@pauwufy fax
Oh yeah...the Terminator aint no joke.
@@pauwufy Deathstroke (Batman Arkham Origins): Apparently, The Joker is afraid of me; wouldn't let me out. And for a good reason, I don't like having my time wasted.
@@pauwufy Yeah the joker is a menace too. There are just different levels to it. Hell, Slade is more of an anti-hero nowadays. The evilest thing in DC is what Black Manta did.
I like how Robin is so obsessed with finding out who Slade is. Meanwhile, Batman in Arkham Origins has everything you need to know about the guy. It also made me wonder if Batman would ever show up to help fight Slade and possibly throw a gas tank at him.
Huh good point
@@miskitoragee6296no. Not good point
hmmm nah batman would prolly have robin go thru the shit he went thru in teen titans as like a training exercise or smth, like where was bro he has all that info most likely cuz hes batman and where is bro when his kid was getting beat up by a grown ass man 💀💀
He did all this and he's just a super soldier 💀 What a menace

@@capviet1468 naw slade was a different breed
yeah, but it's mostly due to plot induced stupidity
@@slkjvlkfsvnlsdfhgdght5447same show where robin can fucking throw cinderblock like a ragdoll. However most damage he did was psychological and if he was outmatched he knew his limits.
Slade's one of the worst types of menace. He's petty with seemingly-endless patience.
Most of his biggest actions for him just sitting down winning
A level of pettiness that rivals the Reverse Flash.
It's also weird that they have Joey Wilson in the show yet don't mention that it's him
( Jericho blonde kid emerald eyes. Mute
Yeah he's only mute becaus Slade didn't get to him in time to save him from getting his throat slit

To sum up slates backstory in the comics It's I lost the kids in the divorce and I'm bored
he literally solo'd a dark souls boss and got his humanity back. that's fucking crazy.
And stole it's Axe, AND used it to jump Multidimensional Satan...
"It's been a long time...hasn't it Titans? A month? A year? A millennium? Far too long for my tastes anyway. I was beginning to think I'd never see your smiling faces again..."-Slade
Ron Pearlman's delivery of that line with all the implications and history behind as you see the looks of stunned abject horror on the Titan's faces really shows just how much Slade traumatized them
The only thing that beats that is Michael Ironside's delivery as Darkseid
"Let the universe howl in despair, for I have returned"
20:11 What robin sees: *Slade picking robin up*
What the titans see: *Robin levatating like he's a fuckin demon*
*Insert Blark floating meme*
I think one reason I love Slade as a villain is because he manage to achieve so much in the series as a regular human. Slade is manipulative, cunning, intelligent, master of martial artists and athletic. Another thing that made him stand out in the series was how he saw potential in his pupils while most villain's just kill them for the dumbest reasons.
True
Yeah, normal in the show. In the comics, he's a super-soldier-serum-injected ex-soldier turned merc. Slight side effect? Serum amped him but tweaked his mind until he was insane.
tbh He's beyond a regular human at this point in the series. his intelligence, Durability, Speed and the fights he had against the Titans just says it all. that he's around Peak human or low superhuman with a gifted mind.
Heck, that dust he stored on his mask that made Robin see him psychologically and getting beaten to the brek of death is very unique and scary. It's very similar to that of Scarecrow's fear gas but very ampt.
But and I think we can all agree.... He still ain't Joker...
@@thisisabackupemail2264 Hes still more or less a normal human.
His "Wolverine-lite" healing factor is only really something that kicks in between issues so Deathstroke can keep coming back for more. The serum only amped his base form slightly. The main takeaway from it was the healing factor.
I swear the way Slade was written for the show you would’ve thought Cartoon Network had a disclaimer for the show reading “We here at Cartoon Network do not condone child abuse, we do however find it incredibly hilarious”
Nice reference
That is a solid reference lol
It's also weird that they have Joey Wilson in the show yet don't mention that it's him

Sounds like Adam Sandler had his hands in these decisions.
The relationship between slade and terra in the comics was fucked man.

I'm afraid to ask how bad it was.

@@zanenevada7327ah. That bad. Got it.
You know, it's really incredible how your entire perspective of a kid's show can change just by getting older. Because holy shit, it never ocurred to me as a kid how much of a literal demon Slade was in this show!
The writers knew what they were doing too. Slade could walk through the entire team normally. And you gonna give him powers? You're literally putting salt in a wound.
Yup
More like pouring gasoline on an already burning fire
Anyone would've one shotted him in a 1v1 situation besides Robin ,he's just a soldier on permanent steroids + didn't Raven curbstomp him in season 4 ?
@@grandcanyon-fu9ztno, it took the whole team combined to whoop him. He got blasted by Cyborg, Raven and Starfire , mixed up by Robin, and trashed by Beast Boy and was still kicking.
To make Slade even more of a fucking lunatic is when you realize that his NAME is Slade. Not his nickname. His name, via birth, is Slade Wilson. He gave this kid his first name and it's still brutal enough for it to sound like a supervillain.
Plus, his supervillain name (Deathstroke) was a bit too hardcore for a kid's show!
The fact that they put him in the show anyway is ballsy, and my childhood is grateful for it!
Romans 10:9 because, if you confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved.
me n slade jus alike frs
Nigga’s a straight menace, and thats all there is to it
@@staysolidshades254 Amen
Slade is the personification of 'woke up and chose violence'
The fact that Slade kept saving Robin's life only to keep tormenting him is another level of insanity
And even after being defeated bro found a way to keep harassing and torturing him post mortem to the point of him begging for his life bro is the devil incarnate
This in my opinion is the greatest rendition of Deathstroke so far in media. Ron Perlman did a fantastic job voicing him even though it was a “kids” show

Dante's inferno*
Yo brother I would love to hear that ... Explain to me I really wanna know I've been reading the Dante's divine comedy inferno
@@karanroy3070 They probably mean *the game* Dante's Inferno. Which was a whole different thing from the Divine Comedy and basically a God of War clone, but a pretty good (if disturbing) one.
@@MrDibara Dante's inferno game is based on the book by some Italian from the middle age, some guy called it the first fanfic where Dante gets praised by everyone in the limbo and other stuff
@@eslowe5269 _It is exactly what I referenced in my comment. _*_"The Divine Comedy"._*_ By Dante Alighieri._
Still, the game is a far cry from what was in the books. More akin to a God of War clone rather then a journey of introspect and spiritual discovery.
One of my favorite lines from Slade was When he came back from the dead.
Cyborg: Whoa!
Slade: Whoa? That’s it? No clever comeback? I was looking forward to it.
Slade’s need to provide child abuse got me through my childhood.

I just love the idea that this man was so petty about even the possibility of losing, he had a back up that would allow him to mentally torture Robin to near death. It was that line of thinking that got Raven's father smiling and going, "Hey, I heard you like torturing kids. You want a free Revive and take over the world?" Of course, Trigon did leave out that part of "Take over" as in, "End" but hey, when you're dead, you don't have many bargaining chips on the table.
@time to leave earth bro un became a bot to agree with someone
@@samscorch8252 That's the power of Black Air Force Energy
It wasn't even just near death if Robin didn't figure it would of killed him I think they actually just say in the episode his mind would of broken under the strain which would of made him go into cardiac arrest and killed him.
@@LongClawzHidden BAF energy is never gonna end
He's like Batman, and I quote Joker, that he always finds a way to win, the only difference that slaid hates losing, while Batman he needs to win to save everyone
As a child, I didn’t have the capacity to understand the character depth of Slade, but as an adult, it’s hard not to. For a cartoon geared towards children, the writers did a good job of making him menacing and threatening without making him gritty and pulpy. He was a master manipulator and a truly cunning intellectual. Seeing him pulling the strings from the shadows reminds me of Kingpin or Tombstone
Literally slade is one of the best villains ever, his fighting technique , the manipulation, and how he made Robin desperately wanting to know who he is, it’s crazy
Slade is the embodiment of "its just a prank bro" taken to a serious level.
why is this accurate
Lol it really is though
"Let's do a little bit of trolling"
-Slate, probably
The sheer amount of abuse this man pulled is what made him memorable to me.
It's also weird that they have Joey Wilson in the show yet don't mention that it's him

@@anarchomando7707 They probably couldn't get away with that for a cartoon network show I'm guessing.
@@blueguy15 ayo he should check out parasyte The maxim
can it even be called abuse at this point? if the police try to arrest him for it he’ll just say “nah fuck off” and start arresting them
@@HolsteredBook Oh no it's still abuse. Just ADVANCED abuse, the type not even the cops can stop.
In a few comics, Tara apparently went evil and basically killed all heroes and destroyed the world. But to know a dimension/story exists where Slade was able to manipulate her? That’s truly terrifying. Real power does not simply equate to how much destruction one is capable of, not simply brute force or the ability to cause harm to others, but the manipulation and subtle control of someone else’ fate? That’s 6 D chess manipulation.

“Toodle-Loo N¡gga”
is now now notification sound
You know you reached Slade levels of being a menace when you got your opps so scared of you that they start seeing visions of you in the night.
And said visions can still whoop that ass
@@Spearra bro using ptsd to whoop their ass even from the grave in both ways
Slade is the physical embodiment of “we do a little trolling”
The man made the best use of robotic body doubles by kicking peoples asses with them and even if he loses he can call them up and say “I didn’t really feel like being there, so how does it feel getting beat to near death by a copy of the real deal?” He can say “I can kick your ass from the other side of the world” and mean it
Slade be like, "Its Just A Prank Bro"
Slade is the kind of villain that could run fades with the Justice League, yet man's going after the Cub Scouts division.
Absolute menace.
Robin: You saved me?
Slade: I'm not through with you.
Man wasn't gonna let death save Robin from his hands
Let’s not forget, the epic voice acting from
Ron Pearlman, who brought Slade to the next level of villain. Man’s like a kids version of Sosuke Aizen
Literally
wait thats Ron Pearlman, the War, War, never changes guy. thats awesome
He also kills it as the Lich from Adventure Time
@@personahearts358 Oh for sure. When I saw clips of him as the Lich, that was the main reason that I started watching Adventure Time. Man has a commanding voice
I can't believe he was also the principal from Danny Phantom
Slade was literally just marking a list for every major character in the show. Dude messed with Robin, Raven, Beast Boy and Terra. I swear they ended the show cause they were too afraid of having him mess with Cyborg and Starfire. They thought ''this is too much, we have to stop this man before he gives the rest of the Titans freaking PTSD''.
My thing is this he really targeted the main 3 with PTSD and childhood trauma like bro straight out the gate different with no remorse
It's also weird that they have Joey Wilson in the show yet don't mention that it's him
( Jericho blonde kid emerald eyes. Mute
Yeah he's only mute becaus Slade didn't get to him in time to save him from getting his throat slit

I'm kinda interested in seeing what he would do to Starfire. Like with cyborg he could just fuck with his programming easily, but half of his brain is human. Starfire would've be pretty cool to explore.
@@MrREAPERsz then Starfire and cyborg would understand why Robin was so paranoid about him

Yeah Comic Slade is more of a menace than he is in the show...
Slade is a god damn Sith Lord. The way he was able to manipulate Robin against his own morals to the point of a near mental breakdown would make Palpatine proud. And poor Terra never had a chance.
Man, remember that Sith Emperor that tormented Darth Revan for 300 years. WTF is wrong with slade?
Made Teen Titans deteriorate to Teen Titans Go!
Really....
11:10 Bro flashed Chris Hansen, the cops, and a cupcake. I immediately knew what he was talking about
Wolfman/Perez’s run of Teen Titans and Deathstroke was overall wild and gives the audience insight into why he’s willing to harass a bunch of children. You can definitely see the writers taking inspiration from them, but definitely dehumanizing his character which is upsetting.
So for anyone who doesn’t know, Slade is a military veteran who fought in Korea and Vietnam who was discharged and got powers because he agreed to try a (anti?) truth serum. He feels guilt over his new job (mercenary aka Deathstroke) causing his youngest, Joe, to be kidnapped and then had his vocal cords sliced making him mute. Adeline, his wife, then shoots him in the eye and divorces him. His older son Grant, who was a boarding school the entire time, thinks Deathstroke (doesn’t know that’s Slade) is cool and after the TT beat him up because he was being questionable with a woman he becomes Ravenger and takes a job with The Hive to defeat the Teen Titans. He fails, gets himself killed, dies in his father’s arms, and Slade then inherits the contract out of vengeance.
He eventually teams up with a few other parents of the Titans to get them back when Joe, who becomes a Titan, gets taken over by basically Raven’s powers and is forced to kill his own son who is begging for death.
Rose is a bastard child and really doesn’t get much time in the comics, and he basically leaves her in his only friend’s care after realizing he’s toxic. That eye stuff is very much a different writer.
Also Tara, the two writers Wolfman and Perez of Judas Contract, have two different interpretations of how far Slade went. Wolfman, who went on to write the Deathstroke comics, had Slade’s best friend basically say “I thought you manipulating [Tara] was bad, but at least you never tried to sleep with her” when Slade was about to sleep with an underaged girl who was being pimped out by her dad, though Slade picked up the queues and walked away before anything happened.
I would like to point out in the comics. Tara Markov was a sociopath. That was the only intention for her. She was pure evil in a cute facade. That was the whole point. She was a gimmick an ingenious gammock to Mark wolfman.
Problem is they thought under the sexist notion. Oh yeah, girls sleeping with the enemy makes her even more evil. And kind of forgot about the implication. Oh yeah she's underage. That's about it really. I say we should have just forgot about that aspect because it ruins a otherwise pretty decent
So they retconned the SladeXTera thing.....
I just gotta say this; Slade's ROBOT saving robin, a literal teen, from falling just to whoop his ass and then blow up in his face is probably top 5 menace activity on this channel so far. a robot basically just vegeta flexed on a child.
The wildest part of Robin looking for Slade's true identity, is that Slade is his government name 😂 bro didn't even use an alias.
Mostly because of censorship. Deathstroke was apparently too dark to use. Slade also doesn't even sound like a real name, lets be honest, everyone they fight has a codename, do they think the 19th Villain wouldn't be under a false identity-
@@Sassaparilla which is funny considering all the dark Shit that happened in this shows
I always thought this version of Robin was Tim Drake. Till I saw his family fall from the trapeze in his memories and knew it was Dick Grayson.
@@jasonelbow3807obviously in most of the teen titans though sometimes it's Damian
@@fer8353 No, it wasn't obvious. In the comics only Tim Drake used a staff to fight with.
When you realize Slade was playing with the Teen Titans the entire time and could have killed them at any point in time.
... now that I think about it, Slade probably blackmailed the government to have them not interfere in his mind games, hence the lack of appearance from the Justice League. That and he probably blackmailed the JL too. Afterall, he already knew Batman's identity and most likely the others'. Slade has balls the size of Kentucky so it wouldn't surprise me.
Pretty unlikely that happend.
Slade left Robin,Terra and Raven with so much trauma and PTSD.
The CrankthatFrank “reee” killed me😂
Slade's spirit beating the absolute dog sh!t out of Robin terrified me as a kid. That and his torture of Raven on her birthday. Mans left "Oh... and Happy Birthday." To this very day, Slade's one of my favorite villains. His various comic iterations are just as insane from the snippets I've read.
You know what's funny, that wasn't even Slade's spirit. Robin got boxed up by a Slade HALLUCINATION. That Slade wasn't even real just in Robin's head.
@@TMerr79 AH Damn that's right! I always thought it was his spirit. Mans was in his head so much he hallucinated getting folded!

@@sagezemage8834 I believe the reason why the cartoon used a toxic gas to induce the hallucinations is because that's somehow easier for kids to understand than PTSD and paranoia from having your ass handed to you constantly.
@@sagezemage8834 Oh yeah I remember that now! I barely remember the show, but damn was he intimidating.
Even as a kid I knew how much of a brutal threat Slade was to the Titans.
Not only could this man run fades with any and ALL of them, dude’s genius was _terrifying_
Facts bro. I used to be horrified of that nigga as a kid 😂
When you realize Robin obsessed over Slade to the point of creating a new persona, lying to his friends, and becoming a criminal -- AND THEN YOU REALIZE HE COULD OF JUST ASKED BATMAN! DAFUQ ROBIN?!
15:25 not gonna lie Terra in that suit makes her build like a hero factory character
Slade:
- Bodied Robin, like, way too many times
- Bodied the entire cast like, way too many times
- Bodied Robin, in his own mind, way too many times
- Bodied the earth
- Bodied the other guy who bodied the earth
Lol
Bodied someone to get back a body
BODY
Yea… he OD”in
Bodied pure evil.
also saved robin just to continue boding him again
I didn't realize that Slade used Scarecrow's fear gas on that haunting episode. I just thought Slade put that much psychological trauma on this man to a point of driving Robin insane like that, but in a way he did, and the gas just amplified the trauma even more.
Bro i thought the same thing that he just gave robin so much ptsd he could physically feel it
@@popg21-the-epic51 ngl slade is the definition of robins worse enemy
Clever.🧐
@@popg21-the-epic51 yeah, thought the same way
22:07
That's like what Vega did in his fight against Chun Li in the Street Fighter 2 anime movie.
The Man is so badass that even Raven's Dad saw the win button the moment he saw him.
Too bad Trigon betrayed him.
Then slade basically mounted his horn on his wall like a damn trophy, bro literally scrapped with who is basically Satan in the DC universe...and won (with help of course)
@@johntaco861 slade literally just became kratos and trigon was gaia.
both had a betray thing happen
bruh
@@johntaco861fun fact: in DC Lucifer is real and Trigon ain't got shit on him, makes ya think the presence who's basically just God how strong that mother trucker is
I will honestly never forget how he saved Robin just because he wasn’t finished beating his ass bro. So raw
I know
Robin is pretty much the ex that goes to the abusive and manipulative ex every time
This bro didn’t HAVE beef with a child, this bro just saw batman’s son doing his own thing finally and said “nah imma fuck around with him.”
Slade was my favorite villain as a kid. I'm so glad to see that you're finally making a video on CN's most underrated menace
True i was also in love with this show as a kid
This is facts and trust me everyone in our generation love the OG TT
@our hero are you real or fake make up your mind
Same, that was favorite villain right there 😹
Underrated??? Nah far from that but he was my favorite aswell 😂
Even when Slade was working for Trigon he was manipulating. And he does his research. Finding that ring to protect him cause he doesn't trust Trigon. Genius. Assuming Terra actually is alive, he probably found a way to break her out of the stone and wipe her mind, just to torment Beast Boy some more. The man's a menace.
It's actually whenever the spell that turned everyone to stone was broken, causing terra to be free. Not wanting to go back into the superhero and just wanting to be normal becomes Terra's objective
@@DDicey6 Oh cool! Thanks for the info!
18:17 uhh robin wth u been smokin😭
The whole bit with Slade spitting fake news to Terra in the cave had me weak AS
Fun: Slade from Teen Titans was voiced by Ron Pearlman. That makes his character at least 100 times cooler than he was originally.
who?
@@dasupist the first hellboy? The narrator of the Fallout game's?
@@brendankelly2653 ohhh my god
@@brendankelly2653 who
Hellboy hell yeah!
I always thought Slade as a character was so wild to be in a kids show. That grown man was absolutely tormenting a bunch of teenagers...like he bullied tf out of them, especially Robin for basically no reason. Like most villains have a reason to hate the hero or something, Slade just wanted all the smoke
Did all that & they never knew who he was
@@insominaddict that’s the thing, you don’t HAVE to go that deep to figure out who he is
Slade is his FIRST NAME
THIS PART!
@@ianr7014 honestly, it's a lot simpler than you think
In the comics he was a merc for hire, It really deadly one that can theoretically take on Superman with a kryptonite blade
He was a military modified super soldier
Why did Slade have a bone to pick with the Titans? Well they were implicated in the death of his son Grant( the original ravanger
Interestingly enough
Joey Wilson( Slade's other kid) was the show yet don't mention that it's him
blonde kid emerald eyes. Mute
This is very important, out of the universe, Joey The first American sign language speaker for comics
in comics
he's only mute becaus Slade didn't get to him in time to save him from getting his throat slit rival mercenary assassin shit
This caused his wife Adeline Kane, former military officer, to shoot him in the back of the head
When that didn't work she served him the divorce papers
( That's why he wears the eye patch
( Interestingly enough, you can't want to heal up eyes that were shot from the back of the head)
My only assumption for this show is
he's lonely. He lost the kids in the divorce which is more funny in hindsight
Honestly, Jericho and Grant were treated better by Slade in the comics. Original run of the Judith contract
( Jericho was the Judas for Wilson's family and Tara was the Judas for the Titans. )
Oh and Tara was just a psychopath who actively wanted the Titans destroyed.
To sum up slaes backstory in the comics It's I lost the kids in the divorce and I'm bored And I'm already a veteran and a super soldier
Robin was trained by bats and slade wanted to test him
I'm convinced Batman hired him to fuck with Robin to teach him a lesson
It’s choices like Slade that make me hope Azula gets picked for her rightful place at the table
Nah I want the trio. Azula wasn’t alone at her best moment she definitely pulled up with Ty Lee and Mai to jump people. They jumped them multiple times while chasing them, attempted to jump them during the attempted invasion, and would’ve jumped them during the prison break if Mai and Ty Lee hadn’t chosen to protect the GAang.
Not to mention the voice actor who did his voice absolutely killed it. To this day this version of Slade is still one of my all time favorite villain’s from an animated show.
Ron Perlman.
@@theparadoxzone2396 yeah that’s it

What are you doing here.. Za zombie!
Slade is THE villian. A man that would go the extra mile just because. He terrified me growing up watching this show and I love him for it!
For me slade slade was an inspiratal father figure.
He should do the shredder at some point
whats the name of that scream at 23:35?
I swear everytime this man show’d up or The titans were having sum un foreseen trouble. This nigga Slade wz their on BS. Absolute lovely hell
On a G, everytime this man show’d up or The titans were having sum un foreseen trouble. This nigga Slade wz their on BS. Absolute lovely hell
One of the best and most developed iterations of Deathstroke just from a cartoon series featuring him in 17 episodes.
10:39 "YOU BEST CALL BATMAN RIGHT NOW" cracked me up
Everything Slade did regarding Terra was the most needlessly demonic shit I've ever seen on a children's TV show
True true
look at what he did to Tara in the comics
@@hype5456 I already know and I'm currently repressing it
@@DaddyDynastic yeah Marv regretted making that story and so it's been recton but still it still happened even if it's a different canon
YOu haven't seen the judas movie with teen titans cause that shit was bonkers and like made me uncomfortable.
Slade was the most menacing villain of my childhood. He was cunning, actually good at fighting (unlike a lot of "mastermind" characters that are just cowards), and had an amazing voice actor (Ron Pearlman deserves every bit of praise for that portrayal). The early 2000s Teen Titans show was excellent overall. Was a "kids" show but tackled relevant adult themes and topics routinely and in a good manner.
Agreed, I remember witching this show as a kid back in the day. And though it took me years later to figure it out, Slade from 2003 Teen Titans was a different breed of villain.
This polar opposite of a mad man had everything- the skills, the Drip, the ambition, the will to do literally ANYTHING it took to get what he desired, whether it was getting Robin as his apprentice or to simply see the Titans kicked down a peg.
Yeah I'm glad CJ finally gave this man the credit he deserved for nearly a decade now.
Teen titans paid so much respect to Deathstroke as a character cause in the comics he's even more compelling as a villain they definitely went as far as they could with him for it to still be considered a "kid's show".
Wos
What's insane is despite all of this Slade is still not the worst villain in cartoon Network. Number one is Aku.
If Slade is in here, Green Goblin from The Spectacular Spider-Man has to get his own video too. Considering that it was a Saturday morning cartoon, he was a menace to everyone in that show.
20:55 FNAF fans after seeing William Afton for the 6th Time
Something about Slade using modern apps to communicate is gold.
Mans really hit the Titans up on every platform he could think of.
The discord call took me out
mans was blurring gangsta music in a early morning discord call only to roast them about a fake ass bomb LMAO
He kept getting blocked lol
It’s an absolute tragedy that the show never had a proper ending
The fact this show got cancelled is straight up criminal, that's a felony in my book.
It was more bizarre than anything. Was that girl actually Terra or a lookalike? If the former, then how did she get un-petrified, and did she have amnesia? And what was the monster the Titans were fighting because I could've sworn the two were connected somehow!?
@@johnnygyro2295 There is a followup comic where Terra's brother shows up. Him and BB start talking. It's revealed they're royals from Markovia and that their powers are the results of inhumane experimentation. Ultimately, the two decide to leave her alone. All she ever wanted was normalcy. She remembers, but this is her choice.
I read about it a bit. I don’t think it was canceled, that was the actual ending. The ending was a lesson: when you grow up, not everything will have full closure and you just have to move on. Had they made another season and continued on, the lesson would’ve been pointless. They even *knew* the show would only have 5 seasons which adds to the fact that the “lack of an ending” was intentional.
@@nevarelixe3963This also means Slade was right when he said “She no longer wants to remember you”. He was actually trying to help BB let her go and move on. “You’re the one who’s hurting her. Let her go.”
The facetime got me, bro was waiting with his hands on his back all devious, he even had the lighting 💀
20:45 e"ven in death I will still whoop your ass"
"even in death i still serve the omnissiah"
Slade made a deal with a literal devil so he could keep beating up some teenagers. Child abuse isn't a hobby or a job for Slade, it's a CALLING.
It's a mf full time job to him lmao
I met Ron Perlman (Voice of Slade) at Florida Supercon. I asked about his experience voicing Slade, and he mentioned how Hannibal Lecter inspired his Slade voice. When he voiced Slade, that was Ron Perlman impersonating Hannibal Lecter.
damn if this is true it really backs up more of the 'Slade being a outright sociopath' theory, is there any proof to this encounter>
damnnnn
@@abeedeahmed5626 Florida Supercon offered a VIP panel that was extra where I got a picture and autograph with him. I was with a small group of people where we took turns asking him questions. I was the only one asking him about Teen Titans and Adventure Time. Others asked him about Hellboy, Sons of Anarchy, and Beauty & The Beast. Ron also mentioned he recorded his lines by himself without the other VA's. He didn't get to offer his input for writing episodes. Adventure Time was on the air, and he mentioned recently recording for the Lich. He also liked voice acting where he could wear whatever he wanted when recording lines. I also remember a Florida Supercon rep telling us to not scream, because Ron had a hangover. Ron was hilarious and very friendly.
Love it!!
Now if only he wasnt so cringe.
You know how traumatizing it had to be for Robin for Slade to comeback to life after nearly dying from hallucinations of him coming back to life? Where is Batman lol your boy is going through it!!
This is a man who could stand over you and you can feel the weight of his shadow
Even in death, Slade was still a threat to the Teen Titans.
Now THAT'S what I call a villain.
Him & Stinkmeaner in the 2000s. Straight Menaces.
You know it's serious when the dude isn't even from an anime but he still makes it to the round table of black Air Force activity
