Since things are back to normal, I figured I'd give this a proper go. I know the ten day countdown leading up to three episodes was disappointing. They really dropped the ball there. The fact that the episodes aren't even in HD is even more disappointing, but their stated reasoning for that is that they need to keep some stuff exclusive for potential buyers. I'm not convinced that those buyers will ever come, but I can't fault them for hoping.
I just really like this show. Despite its imperfect animation and off-kilter voice-acting, it had a lot of charm and the story gets really good around eight episodes into it. The people who make it genuinely love it. They're trying to reply to every single person who leaves a comment on YouTube. How many animation studios actually reply to comments about how much porn the show is getting?
If this thread dies a quick death, so be it. But I'm glad they're finally doing something, even if it wasn't as much as I hoped.

yeah love the passion behind it. "Rough around the edges, but definite potential" as one of the characters said, know any cartoon forums and sites where we could recommend this show?
Seems neat. I'll give it a try sometime soon
>>91216672
Same episode.

Sometimes, copying and pasting fails.

Most people come to /co/ because they don't like other places. I suppose reddit and tumblr are the obvious choices, but my reach doesn't extend there. I don't even think the animation sub-reddit is very popular.
>>91217240
i dont know how to make a post popular on tumblr. so i'll pass. till the next friday, guys!
It doesn't seem like season two will be ready until the fall, but I would expect delays to push it into 2018. This show seems to have a lot of delays.
>>91217273
Why Friday?

Seems like something that would do well on Netflix.
Looks like 2004 garbage
Bumping!
>>91218054
I agree, they should do a deal
>>91218863
you mean the cartoon or the site? because it acts strangely lately.
these kids put some effort into this show, tiger's stripes remind lightning, Rabbit's face fur pattern look like hair bangs, the lounge is full of life: in ep 3 you can see the Lizard running around drinking power drink, Ape arguing with the waiter, etc.
>>91218863
It's style mitigates it's visual problems. I think it looks acceptable.

>They really dropped the ball there.
They dropped it, kicked it, set it on fire, and then salted the ground it landed on.
They managed to ensure that when (if) the crowdfund launches, most people will ignore any countdowns or hype attempts thinking they're aiming for another couple of episodes on youtube
>The fact that the episodes aren't even in HD is even more disappointing
... And then they went and pissed on the ball's salty charred remains.
The only reason to be excited for episodes on youtube was their being a higher quality than the back-alley rip people saw.
It's like they're sabotating their own attempts, but I'm getting the feeling it's less incompetency and more just not caring about getting international viewers. Or maybe they're just old people, still clinging to the notion that if you're going to market a product, you need to do it the old fashioned way with a company buying the transmission rights for TV airings.
Should've learned from Wakfu. Say whatever you want about its quality, they knew how to market that shit.
they'll release the rest of the episodes, right?
i just want to see their new fans go apeshit after the reveal.
>>91219791
A bit overdramatic, but I get your meaning. Honestly, if they want to sell it, their best bet is probably something like ToonGoggles. That company is still around, and still buying shows to air on their app services.
>>91220172
I think they will, but it'll probably be months from now.
>>91220379
>checking
save for Monster High, everything else looks like like garbage I never saw.
>>91220494
Which is why I'm sure they would be willing to buy Rimba Racer, but I'm not sure what that entails. It may not be a good deal financially for the studio.
There is a lot of weird crap on ToonGoggles. I'm honestly surprised it's still around. They're actually expanding and trying to get bigger.
>>91220570
it would be the most "mature" show in their library for sure.
I dig the idea.
We'll probably get Guardians Of Luna before RR season 2...
They said on facebook that they intend to have all of season one on YouTube within two months.
>>91223642
Lol...any one of us can do it within 2 DAYS...
>>91223853
I'm aware. The episodes are all up on mega. But their future depends on the success of this roll-out and they're wanting to do it gradually to try to build up a fan-base.
>>91223933
Mega link?
Also, anyone got any screenshots or pics of the new hyena grrl?
>>91224184
It's the same quality as the stuff they're putting on YouTube, unfortunately.

Where is it on youtube?
>>91224256
URLs were posted earlier in the thread for the YouTube stuff.
>>91224184
>>91224440
Is she still wearing that vest outfit as her alt?
>>91224440
Have any of the mega or youtube episodes got hyena grrl?
>>91224745
No. That's season two. If enough people beg them, maybe they'll try to rush out her meet the racer video, but that'll be the first thing we properly see of her.
>>91224723
>>91224440
Vyxx is upcoming s2 racer.
>>91224745
Somebody just dumped the entire prologue comic in a second thread. I'm not sure why, or even how. I had access to that comic for a while now but I was asked not to post it. Yet somebody just did. Curious.
>>91225036
oh wow... second thread? weird. either way, thanks for sharing
s2 deserves prologue comic too,reminds me of sly cooper tie-in comics
>>91225151
Somebody made a new thread. I'm just re-posting what was posted over here. The original is: >>91221679
>all that fucking lore
>>91224893
Isshe still going to be wearing that outfit as her alt? I need to know because they wear two typically and reasons.
>>91225326
I wouldn't mind if there was not an animated series, I love the style of this comic.
