I was once the lead guy in charge of the Mike and Melissa reanimated collab. I’m not anymore, but I’m still involved, and I’ve been obsessed with M&M for years lol I’m friends/mutuals with a lot of the church of purple skunk dudes, and from what we’ve gathered, Mike was sincere about what he did with the pilot. He loves to make fun of himself and wanted to make something personal yet silly and fun. That’s real art in my eyes. Sure, it’s weird, but we’re all weird, and Mike just wanted to make a funny cartoon making fun of himself and show people his cute little skunk character. A lot of people went after him and harassed him, which really upsets me, cause he wasn’t hurting anyone, he was just making art. I hope he’s doing ok, and one day can come back and share his art and films with us again. While I disagree with your take, daft, this was an alright video, and I’m glad to see some positivity and support for Mike 👌

I'm 100% sure Mike and Melissa was made with sincerity. He might appear to be ironic cause he has a self deprecating sense of humor but there's a fine line between irony and self awareness. P.S. For the love of god, don't pester Mike or his friends about Mike and Melissa, they want nothing to do with it.

I think what separated Mike and Melissa from something like I heart Psycho, Sonichu or Nyan Sugar Neko Girls is the fact there's so little lore behind. Michael wasn't writing long tirades on Facebook against his trolls or overacted that the whole short was a big joke, he just kept doing his thing and when the spotlight was too much to bear he deleted everything and left with no comment. There's virtually nothing to go off of so people are attracted to what little there is like the Tumblr post or the fake fact that his mom voiced Melissa, and from there they just start to speculate. People love speculation. The short itself is stuck in this perfect balance between irony and sincerity compared to full irony like Nyan Sugar Neko Girls or full sincerity like Sonichu, plus it's art and animation is leagues better compared to the former two so it makes it far more bearable to watch and rewatch.

@@schoolvids4722 From what I remember, he did some manipulative stuff and made some drama between 2 youtubers LS Mark and Just Stop worse by adding some gossip into the mix and just spreading info/misinfo that even if true should have been kept private, at least that's what I got from it back then. However, I hardly remember the drama anyway, it was a long time ago, and since he just stopped covering drama altogether and makes videos showcasing indie animations... I can put the previous feelings I had on the dude aside, if he just goes this route of covering things in a positive light and doesn't get himself into pointless drama.

A bit of a shame you couldn't get Mike for an interview, would have been really cool to hear from him personally what he's been up to all this time and how he's grown. But either way the video was very nice! I'm hopeful that for the most part he isn't super harassed by people about it still, that'd be really lame. Let the man live his life.

Honestly Mike and Melissa is serving as a huge inspiration for me atm, been wanting to fully get into art as a hobby for years and even had some sorta ghost girl OC I've been sitting on for a while and recently rewatched the pilot and got inspired to add "myself"/my online persona into whatever scenario I think of with her as a counter balance I think the idea of having this sort of manic pixie dream girl being paired with a self insert of sorts is incredibly funny in any context

This animation is like Vincent Gallo's Buffalo '66 for animation, weirdly produced, illicit moments of cringe, very indulgent, but there are aspects of it that you'll find resonating within its unique direction.

Yup I changed my username because I stopped making exposé content over a year ago so I wanted a new name to solidify the change! Also since I started to mainly focus on interviewing artists, I noticed people kept thinking I still made exposé videos despite them being normal interviews with artists or regular deep dives. I made a few KZitem community posts talking about me changing names, and it's been in my old Twitter bio for a long while!

I don't believe for a second that Mike and Melissa was some clever satire or funny in-joke. Man just hated people and wanted some escape. Maybe he's changed since then, maybe he's still like that a little bit, deep down. But you don't make something like that without meaning it.
