South Park Season 15 Episode 7! (You're Getting Old)

I can sort of identify with the main points of this particular episode; the gaps in generational preference are no joke, even to the point where I can understand and sympathize with it as an approaching-my-30s lady.

But even so....it seems a lot of the opinions are presented more as black-and-white rather than the huge gray area they actually are. That's somewhat true even with some of the opinions I myself present over the course of the first half of the episode. But even I know that m...

Comic-Making From A Hobbyist Perspective Intro!

November 20th: Now available to view for all paid and free members!

I've had this series ideated for a while now, and it's finally starting to come into fruition. With all my experience and connections in making a graphic novel from a hobbyist standpoint, I feel confident enough to start work on a series that will help me help others who might be in similar positions.

Granted, I'm not an expert! And I still have a lot to learn. But I've learned a lot about the process of ma...

Red Dead Redemption II Part 34 was Full of All Kinds of Twists and Turns!

November 12th: Now available to view for all paid and free members!

Somehow I still ended up getting one of wild and insane play sessions instead of my sister. And that's a legitimate take; this playthrough was action-packed right up until the end, full of a number of twists and turns that we never would have expected.

From Angelo Bronte, to a bank heist gone wrong, to getting marooned and scripted into a war in order to save our skins, at no point does this session really ...

Hunters Page 227!

So I actually finished coloring this page before I went on my trip to Mexico City, but I didn't have the chance yet to digitally finish it until after I had come back.

Seems Nysha has already worked to steer the conversation in a different direction, after whatever happened in the previous page. And Laruk gets a delicious-ish taste of her first own kill.

South Park Season 15 Episode 6 (City Sushi)

Wow, somehow I ended up a lot of commentary on this. Damn did it bring back some memories especially related to history and psychiatry. So many A plots and B plots for all these episodes intertwine with one another in some bizarre and strange ways, usually just at the beginning or at the end (the former was definitely true with this particular episode).

But THEN this episode gives us some of the craziest mind fucks that I never expected, as is typical in South Park fashion.

The 3rd Part of the Moo Laugh Compilation Series!

October 30th: Now available to view for all paid and free members!

You know, I was worried this would take me longer, but I am happy to be wrong about that initial estimate! In particular because I ended up finding more clips that already had their own music and edits so there wasn't too much for me to work on besides cutting all the clips together.

Still, looking through all the videos is the real challenge! Some videos have none of what you need, a few might, and others you ma...

Hunters Page 226!

Bet you weren't expecting another new comic page from me so soon! But like I said before, I was ahead of the curve a little on the latest batch of comic pages, so here's another one for ya!

In all honesty, the dialogue is more interesting on this particular page. There's some mystery and tension behind the conversation that occurs, but it disappears as quickly as it appears.

Red Dead 2 Continues to Have A Lot of Interesting Characters! (Ep. 33)

November 4th: Now available to view for all paid and free members!

No joke. From an odd trio of magical-circus-weird show-folk, accidentally running into NPCs causing them to beat our ass, and a boatman's terrible affair with a massive and angry gator, this world is full of all kinds of unique characters that even entertain and interest the likes of me, someone who could sometimes get easily bored with all the monotony of open world exploration!

And to think this all starte...

Patrons Will NOT Be Choosing January 2025's Videos!

I'm sure some folks would have looked forward to choosing January's videos (a lot of people like to vote for their preferred content!), but that will NOT be the case for January of the new year, and I'd just like to quickly explain why.

Due to my recent-ish process change with creating Hunters pages, I was forced to fall behind a little bit on my schedule, which currently has me publishing 3 new pages to the public a month (on the 1st, 11th, and 21st of every month). But I...

Hunters Page 225!

Not a lot of dialogue and text to worry about for this page so it came out sooner than expected!

Diala and Idredo part with some last words for Laruk, who seems happy and grateful, until she notices something else and grows concerned. But why?

South Park Season 15 Episode 5! (Crack Baby Athletic Association)

So, this is a title for an episode.

And somehow, Cartman managed to rope Kyle in on one of his rather dastardly schemes. KYLE of all characters. And Kyle's not the only one. They're doing something....well, I'm not sure if heinous is quite the right word, but certainly immoral.

And surprisingly I do manage to pause a number of times to talk about little things here and there, so there's that!

Otterpop's New Stark's Pond Wallpaper!

October 18th: Now available to view for all paid and free members!

So! This one took longer than expected, in part because I needed more time to finish this digitally than planned, and because exporting this video file took quite a while since it was sped up so much; heck I even had to export the file in multiple versions, holy moly.

But it's finished, and I now get to share the timelapse with you all! What's better, I get to put it in my Ko-Fi and Patreon sho...

Hunters Page 224!

You know, I'd actually completed this page not too long before publishing this, but things got weird with the drawing and scanning schedule. But that's okay!

Despite Laruk's more solemn nature in the middle section of this page, it was great to see her more hopeful and delighted overall compared to beforehand (or beforepaw, hehe?) and it was happy to draw her that way.

South Park Season 15 Episode 4! (T.M.I.)

How come this episode made me pause so gosh darn much?!

Well, if it gives ya content! I'm happy to give. And happy to share a lot of interesting perspectives. I mean, from sex ed classes and Cartman's ego to Fairplay and Leroy Jenkins? Holy moly!

And no, I'm not kidding with all those discussion topics.

Terroriser Being A Terrorizer Compilation Part 4!

October 12th: Now available to view for all paid and free members!

Can you believe this is a Part 4 already? You know....based on what I know about Brian, I actually can.

I will be completely honest, I wish I would have given myself a little more time to procure some more clips for this compilation, and I'd even say the same for the recent Nogla compilation. But, I did what I could and provided as much material for your entertainment as possible!

These aren't easy to make...

Hunters Page 223!

Presenting another new Hunters page! The digital adjustment for this was rather quick because of the lack of dialogue and text needed to add for creating the final result.

And those smiles in the last couple of panels! Laruk is happy to show off her hard work, and the sisters are happy to see their new friend again.

Red Dead Redemption II NPCs and Colorful Characters! (Part 32)

October 26th: Now available to view for all paid and free members!

So! Seren and I have a LOT of Red Dead II playthroughs to share, especially since Red Dead II will be a big focus in November!

But of course it'll take a little bit to cut down all of the videos. So let's start off with a simple session!

Seren got real tired by the end and unwilling to play a session of her own afterwards. But I still had fun with my time playing through the game. I continued to keep a...

A New Compilation, the Nogla Dumb Brain Compilation!

October 3rd: Now available to view for all paid and free members!

I asked folks on my OtterpopTV channel if they wanted to see a big brain or a dumb brain compilation from Nogla.....and people largely wanted the latter. It was somewhat unfortunate to see so many people criticize me for thinking Nogla can actually [legitimately] be smart sometimes. So next time, I'm going to disregard the large audience and give Mr. Nogla the benefit of the doubt, because he's not always as dumb a...

South Park Season 15 Episode 3! (Royal Pudding)

Admittedly, not the most interesting to watch and not a lot I could really commentate on. If the video length didn't make that obvious already. Even so, there were some humorous and silly moments, so it's alright!

Hunters Page 222!

Yes, I know this page is late, but there is a good reason for that!

I have decided lately to entirely change up my process for drawing new comic pages, and the hope is to plan out the pages and story better with it.

This is also one of the first times we've seen Diala and Idredo really interact with one another, and it goes about as well as you'd expect of two characters that are so vastly different from one another. And...is there something different about Laruk??

Patrons Choose December's Videos Poll!

I will take up to 3 or 4 (three or four) of each of these poll options and focus on those for the month of December, and patrons get to decide which get recorded and published. (options chosen for the September, October, and November schedules are excluded).

• September will currently focus on scary game playthroughs, Patreon reaction requests, and a writer's dissection on a game or TV show

That Time That South Park Took Down An Entire Religion

September 28th: Now available to view for all paid and free members!

You read that title correctly.

A content creator by the name of Blooms has created a lot of analysis-type videos on South Park, and this one in particular came at a very high recommendation from multiple individuals. I just needed to see the title and I immediately knew which episode and religion it referred to.

It's been years since I first watched the Scientology episode, and I still remember how much ...

South Park Season 15 Episode 2! (Funnybot)

Now THIS episode has a crazy coincidence behind it! Well, kinda sorta?

I just happened to watch a YouTube video the day before this recording that was tangentially related to comedy and award shows. Not to mention loose or not-as-loose mentions around generative AI, the subjectivity of comedy, Hollywood, and German business culture (yes, I do discuss ALL of these topics in a single episode), there was a lot for me to work with on the commentary side of things.

Mystery Skulls Animated Is A Masterpiece And NO ONE Can Convince Me Otherwise

September 24th: Now available to view for all paid and free members!

Waaaay back in 2021, back when I first opened up request reactions for certain Patreon tiers, I was asked to watch this series of videos known as Mystery Skulls Animated. I'd never heard of this, the series or the artist Mystery Skulls. After all, I didn't typically listen to a lot of techno or EDM since it's not my preference. Essentially, content creator MysteryBen27 took existing music from this artist, and was com...

South Park Season 15 Episode 1 Is Here! (HUMANCENTiPAD)

Oooooooh, my gosh, I've seen clips of this before.

And now I know the context.

But that doesn't make it any less nonsensical!!

Layers of Fear Has DLC?! (Layers of Fear: Inheritance)

September 14th: Now available to view for all paid and free members!

Initially I believed that I had both Layers of Fear games. Turns out, that's not at all what happened. What was actually the case was that I had access to the DLC for the first game.

It's called Inheritance, and believe it or not I originally played some of this DLC years ago, not long after finishing the original game. Unfortunately, that's when I still had a bad camera/gaming setup and a lot got flubbed ...

Hunters Page 221!

I worked hard these last few days to finish this page as fast and efficient as possible! And unlike previous recent pages, this one doesn't have a lot of dialogue! I switched up my methods a slight bit with the coloring, but I may have to adjust again.

And, surprise Diala appearance! This is the first time I've drawn Diala in a while. The last time she appeared was way back in the beginning of Chapter 3, and that wasn't for very long.
