![Junior H x Gael Valenzuela - NO TENGA$ MIEDO [Official Video]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/q4cSLxqufEA/mqdefault.jpg)



Calling someone's head "the dumbest shape ever invented" is maybe the funniest insult ever.
YES
I keep learning that an alarming amount of people's first Sonic game was Shadow the Hedgehog.
i know what you are, rtgame viewer
It really explains why so many people thought the dumpster fire that was Sonic Unleashed was a good game.
@flordelizhawk358ahhhhh I see what you did there
But my first game was the goat sonic 2
mine was sonic and sega all stars racing it was my first ever game tbh
mine was close; Sonic Heroes
I'm gonna be real penny explaining that the infamous "which is fine be me" line was supposed to mean that shadow was okay with the ease of his task as opposed to shadow having no ethical qualms with taking candy from a baby kinda blew my mind
Idk why but it find it fascinating that so many people think he meant that line literally
@Psykoknight65 To be fair his line delivery made it sound like he was being literal
@Psykoknight65 in addition to what was said above I also think it's just an awkwardly written line. "This is like taking candy from a baby, which is fine by me" just reads more like the entire last sentence is fine by him. I think "This is as easy as taking candy from a baby, which is fine by me" would've sounded better
@NoOtherNames the "which is fine by me" wasn't even necessary, that piece of information could've easily been conveyed through his expression or tone of voice LOL
Really? I know “this is like taking candy from a baby, which is fine by me” is funny to see out of context but it really seems that would be the natural reading of the line.
11:09 I love this so fucking much because it feels so much like Mar did this because he cares about his friend and her passions, so much that he can do this, genuinely, and without malice, and still joke about it with her too. So sweet
My mind ignored the word "Revisiting", and read the title as "My first Sonic Game" and I bursted out laughing at the idea that Penny of all people would be playing her first Sonic game in 2024
Huge earthbound fan excited to play it for the first time
@blackspy8331 I love ghost in the shell, such an influential movie, cant wait to see it :)
Most Fnaf Fans be like
Persona Fans:
me with undertale after growing up with the soundtrack and had fan comics crack my egg 🏳️⚧️ but never having played the actual game
36:30 MarKatoto had to rip that from the game, edit in Mario, recolor everything to yellow, and then convert it BACK to the game's cutsceme format, all for the sake of trolling SnapCube.
Sincerely thank you for the time stamp, I needed to spam that part a few times, it gives me so much joy
Actually he said it was an already available mod on gamebanana
Shadow the hedgehog is the game that taught me the concept of morality and its consequences. Eggmans karate chop death scared me into being a good boy for life.
My Dad was scared straight as a wee lad by the donkey transformation scene in Disney’s Pinocchio (1940).
You were scared straight by Shadow’s mad KA-RA-TAY skills against Dr. Eggman.
@JeffreyThrash They are not the same.
@SonicMaster327 Right, getting chopped in half by Shadow is way more terrifying and realistic.
@SonicMaster327Guess which one of them turned me into a furry
@Steve-sf8fv both??
2:58 absolutely crying over the scream here. Mar put his whole fucking being into the *_“NOOOOOOOO”_*
35:10 i love the cut to pennys realization bc that means there were 13 full seconds between penny saying "shego" and remembering kim possible
That's a wonderful fact to know, thank you
From this, we can extrapolate Shego's approximate file size and height.
45:53 Sonic: "Yeah! We'll kick this thing's-" ⬅➡🅰🅱⬇✅ *_"BUTT_* in no time flat!"
Bro playing unleashed early💀
did not fumble the qte
doorbell sound effect
@SBSanikB4 "FEELIN GOOD"
I love the subtitles referring to the game as "Shadow of the Hedgehog"
I mean, that isn’t technically wrong, he is designed to resemble a shadow of A hedgehog, namely Sonic.
I love the level where Shadow shrunk himself down, climbed onto Sonic, and stabbed the glowing glyph on his forehead to try and resurrect Maria.
something Starfire would say
badass
Wait when did I do that??? Could you timestamp so I could fix it LOL
EDIT: oh my god twice right at the start LMAO. no clue how I missed that, more than once even. Fix incoming
28:56 oh my god ive never seen this im cracking up so hard. ive never seen eggman go "MY BEAUTIFUL ROBOT BOY IS JUST HAVING A SILLY FUN TIME BE NICE TO THEM" like holy shit. im dying.
PLEASE tell me "my name is pomni and i can't escape the digital circus" is in this highlights video. that shit changed my life.
edit: LET'S FUCKING GOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!
"Shadow...it's me, the Devil"
“I have come to convince you to do sin.”
@Jcproductions489 "I will sin my own way!"
The Devil? from the Bible?
@Larry_Blazkowicz ok BYE
is this a bible reference?!?
"Do you think that Sonic is the type of guy to go outside and find like a REALLY good stick, and then just like keep it in his room forever?" The fact that I've actually done that before ✋️😭
the primal urge to collect stick
Everyone descended from the eukaryotic tree
he would without a doubt
47:15 dry chip took me OUTTTT hELp
here after Sonic Central 2024 where they announced that Aiai has a Shadow the Hedgehog costume in the newest Monkey Ball game
the bit was so strong it became real
47:15 I like to think that them wheezing laughing is actually just Dry Chip noises
Bro got them extra Sin points by singing Together Again
11:48 Apparently a prerequisite to being friends with Penny is being able to make YTP noises
Okay, but why the frick DID Kiss Ross just punch Chris Ross in the pænis?
4:26 “He’s faster than Sonic!”
“He’s faster than Sonic! w h a t ?”
3:54 "I have no love in my heart for AiAi," said the lady who spent and EXTENDED amount of time trying to get (specifically) the AiAi plush from that Yakuza 7 Claw Machine
EDIT: 7:18 ah she acknowledged it
as penny failed to extract AiAi from that claw machine, AiAi successfully clawed away any positive inclinations penny might've once held for him
I literally dreamed this
15:18 Huh, I never considered that reading of the line. I always just assumed he was being comically evil, but that does make more sense...
It's funny to think that Shadow the Hedgehog (2005) is indirectly responsible for the SnapCube dubs as a whole
Lythero, RtGame, and Snapcube all playing Shadow the Hedgehog? What is this Shadow renaissance we’re in
It’s the year of Shadow bro
The game is peak, that's why everyone's playing it.
Sonic x Shadow Generations
* Sonic x Shadow -Generations-
29:31 ellie ATE with this
Penny's first Sonic game being StH is still so crazy to me
StH is perhaps not the most clear abbreviation.
@FizzyChalice Point taken
@durandal_273 my first games were the OG and Sonic Adventure on the Dreamcast. Then I got Sonic Adventure 2 on the GameCube.
It adds up now that I think about it
I got into the series with Heroes, then I played the others.
53:18 the TEA KETTLE LMAO
Don't destroy my marvelous robot's balancing ball, Shadow! You'll ruin his fun little act!
I love how whenever I come back to this video it always places me at exactly 9:10
36:33 this was definitely the most surprising scene in this entire video
I was laughing and literally crying when I saw that
4:26 He's faster than sonic! He's faster than sonic! What!?
I wheezed as hard as dry Chip when I saw dry Chip
I love that penny and mar so graciously gave us a sequel to the beloved “aiai is such a dumb shape” where they finally kill the wretched Aiai and save the world from damnation
Why is the funniest joke in this entire video “I crush the alien”
36:31 ITS COME FULL CIRCLE
Interesting fact the devs who were working on the game actually made shadow the hedgehog a first person shooter but when Sega saw what they were doing the told them to change it because it was allegedly "just cod but with Sonic characters" so they slapped this together in like 3 months
Source you can trust me bro
my source is i made it up!!!!
Can confirm, my dad owns SEGA
Penny’s first game being Shadow the Hedgehog, saying “ew who is this annoying Blue guy? 😙”
and then being able to do Sonic’s voice 100% accurately, is so funny-
17:02 THIS REACTION
C U M M O N K E Y
I'm glad you said it and not me..... :3c
@Hellwater-q7t YEAHHHHHH
THEIR SCREAMS AMDJKANSKANSKANWJ
following 16:58 too
Penny shooting the switch IMMEDIATELY after sonic says not to is so fucking funny
I saw the thumbnail and was like “oh that’s super cute! Penny has her sonic sona Babble, and Mar has a monkey ball sona that’s really fun symmetry with that era of sega!” And i had absolutely no idea what I was getting into I missed this stream man I didn’t know this shit was gonna be SILLY
penny's first sonic game being ShtH makes so much sense tbh
Makes sense her first sonic fandub was shadows introduction
44:48 Ngl Sonic is so real for that. When I was younger I thought that open cars without a roof or windows looked like shit
21:30 I appreciate the Toy Story 1 reference there “”Don’t count on it”? Aaaahhhh!”
Penny. Mar. Look at me.
*Did you predict AiAi getting a Shadow onesie in Banana Rumble?*
Penny: Time to celebrate the Year of Shadow! Let's get those sin points!
Mar: *snickers* You have no idea what you're in for, my friend...
*Penny enters Westopolis*
AiAi: What's up, Penny Parker?
*Penny experiences AiAi PTSD*
Penny: ...Not YOU again!
You’re never gonna believe what they just announced in the Sonic Central
3:34 I love how exasperated Penny is right out the gate.
45:28 I come from the future with news
I love how Penny’s attitude towards AiAi is that of an older sibling watching their younger sister/brother play Super Monkey Ball while waiting her turn on the TV so she can play her super cool and edgy hedgehog game.
In the dub I think Amy's only line was Holly saying "I'M HERE TOO!" at the very very end when all of the characters show up to support Shadow against The Devil from Bible
I don't think I've laughed as hard at anything in months as I laughed at Mario Piss Beam at 36:33, holy fuck
24:13 - 25:42 i can’t stop visualizing venom from marvel talking to shadow throughout all this😭😭
The true final boss of Aiai’s Redemption should’ve been the Monkey Destruction Switch
"ITS A LUPE" MENTION! LETS GOOOOOO!!!
I haven’t seen anyone mention this, but Penny’s spot-on Bentley impression returns in this and I could not be happier
6:03
I remember the unedited stream and just started snickering to myself
I don't think he can say that on youtube
You can, it got reclaimed
Can't believe this video predicted Aiai in Crossworlds
this edit is so good, it genuinely doesnt even feel like its missing anything from the vod. like its the full experience but not.
52:39 Standing around at the speed of diagonal!
i think something's wrong with the copy of your video game
nu uh.
Nah, it's a limited director's cut edition copy
1:00:25 it's very unlikely that mar ever sees this but if he does i want him to know this bit legitimately put me in the er
not even a joke i was opening a water bottle with my teeth when he said this and i laughed really hard and spilled water all over myself and the bottle cap went down my throat and i had to get it removed surgically
Holy fuck
I love how this playthrough also lowkey doubles as a director’s commentary for the Shadow dub at some parts
45:05 why was that perfect when he said "STOP!!" XD
I’m convinced the other Sonic characters are in this game just for them to be lame and cramp Shadow’s style. Like I legitimately believe they just wanted to make Shadow look cooler at the expense of literally every other character lmao
You cannot imagine the surprise and then dread I felt, when I saw the title and thumbnail of this video.
the fucking Chris Ross bit has me in genuine tears cheeks red about to vomit laughing please help me
The pops impression was too subtle that the muscle man impression "YOU KNOW WHO ELSE LIKES MONKEY BALL" caught me so off guard and had me screeching with laughter X'D
Genuinly love how in the True Hero Dark ending, shadow just becomes Vegeta with wanting to be better then Sonic
Hearing broadway actor Andrew Rannells voice every background GUN soldier is insane bro saved his career from anime dubs
WHAT
This is like, the perfect playthrough video
I previously held the Silver Campaign by Lythero in that regard but the sheer presence of MONKE in this puts it above the silver campagin
18:08
God bless Ellie.
NOW THE MEMORIES OF LOOKING AT THE ARBY'S
@mothsolotl What song is this cause I have this stuck in my head lmao
@m0_x_ieSAME- I originally thought it was Its Not Over by Daughtry cause the voice sounds similar but I don’t think it is
@m0_x_ieI found it!!!! It’s Photograph by Nickelback
@aj_killjoy late reply, but it's Photograph by Nickelback.
Penny's "...Kim Possible !" sits next to Arin's "MARK ZUCKERBERG" at the lunch table
Penny: "I'd like to go ONE STREAM without quoting a vocal tick."
Also Penny: "VALVE?"
no joke you dropped this JUST as i was about to pick something to play while i do chores. shoutout sophie and ellie again for the best subs and edits this side of youtube :)
Ok but he totally said “men, forgive me.”
29:44 Relationship advice from Eggman
When Penny started asking about Kiss Ross I had to turn on captions and summarily realize I still didn't understand a thing she was saying.
47:16 I’m so glad he made a way back in this game!
This game might suck, but it was Penny's introduction to Sonic, and I'm grateful for that.
Me too! I've never actually played this game before! But one of my friends had Sonic Heroes back in the day and that was pretty fun
You carry only darkness in your heart.
Can’t believe they predicted Aiai the ultimate lifeform
32:28 for those that need a real good laugh
I can’t believe this video predicted the shadow collab
10:00 I need this timestamp
37:44 i thought that was a goddamn cybertruck for a sec, oof jumpscare
2:15
Penny: "Why is the background pointing towards a burger?" That's a good- (Wheeze) good question!
2:58
Mar: She's gonna be alright, right?
(Gunshot)
Mar: NOOOOOOO!!!
Penny: (Chuckles) WHAT THE F*CK???
Mar: Why didn't anyone TELL ME ABOUT THIS???
Penny: Why did nobody give a CONTENT WARNING???
4:11
Penny as Sonic: Hey Shadow! Long time no see!
Mar as Sonic: IS THAT A F*CKING MONKEY???
Penny as Sonic: What the h*ll?
4:26
Penny: Well, I'm faster than Soni-
4:32
Sonic: What in the world are they after?
Penny as AiAi: Oo-ah! I don't know! (Various monkey sounds)
7:18
Penny: You don't know my history with AiAi, do you?
Mar: No, I don't know!
(Ellie plays a clip from "aiai is such a dumb shape")
Penny: AiAi's head is the dumbest f*cking shape that has ever been invented!
(Mar Laughs)
Penny: He's- It's the STUPIDEST SHAPE that's ever been! So I hate looking at him!
Mar: (Laughs) You've got- you've got a little, uh, AiAi grudge
Penny: I have like a Pavlovian upset response to seeing AiAi
8:05
Mar as Knuckles: Yeah, did you see that sh*t? I did that.
Penny as AiAi: (Monkey noises)
Mar as Knuckles: Yeah, I'm kind of awesome.
Penny as AiAi: (More monkey noises)
Mar as Knuckles: Let me hit em with my BIG FIST!
8:47
Mar: Really gripping onto that piss crystal, huh?
(It seems Sophie misheard it when doing the captioning)
9:09
Penny: (YTP voice) Mm-kay... Why the frick did Kiss Ross just punch Chris Ross in the pingas?
10:06
Penny: I would like to do ONE STREAM in my career where I'm not, like, ceaselessly quoting a vocal tic for the entire f*cking stream!
11:09
(PennyParker I Am All Of Me Cover jumpscare)
Mar: Hey! Who's song is that???
(Penny pauses the game)
Mar: Hey, who's song is that?? Wait a minute!
Penny: ...that just freaked me out
(Both of them laugh)
14:08
Penny: Don't skip the loop! It's a loop (Lupe).
15:10
Mar: He looks like a RUclips thumbnail
Penny: (laughs) (as Eggman) The ultimate problem with Steven Universe!
17:06
Penny: C*M MONKEY! (Laughs)
Mar: (Laughs) I'm glad you said it and not me!
18:07
(A bot of Nickleback's Photograph plays as AiAi falls) 🎶Oh god AiAi!🎶
21:14
Omega: In other words, by stopping the third wheel yourself...
Mar as Omega: In other words, let me back sear you a little bit!
Penny: (Singing) In other words, Eggman, kiss me!
22:45
Penny as Sonic: What are you looking at, buddy?
Mar as AiAi: Ee-oo! God, ee-oo!
24:30
Penny: Digital... Circus! That's not... that's not it...
Mar: Digital Circit?
Penny: (Singing) My name is Pomni and I can't escape the Digital Circus! My name is Pomni and I can't escape the Digital Circus!
Mar as Black Doom: Welcome to The Amazing Digital Circus, Shadow
Penny: (Singing) My name is AiAi and I can't escape the Digital Circus!
25:52
Mar: What is with these f*cking digital crystals?? I hate this thing!
Penny: (Singing) My name is Penny and I can't escape the digital crystals!
Mar: Crystal- (Laughs)
26:10
Penny: Mar, Joy, and I have been watching through the entire Star Wars film series
Mar: It's been really, really fun, but then we see Yoda on screen and then we just keeo doing Yoda impressions, and at some point Yoda would just explode everybody's balls.
27:32
Penny as Mordicai: No dude, that was an uber fail.
Mar as Rigby: STOP TALKING!!!
Penny as Mordicai: We're cringe, bro.
Mar as Rigby: AiAi will save YOUR LIFE ONE DAY!
Penny: (as Mordicai) Not likely, bro. I don't even like Monkey Ball (As Rigby) HOW COULD YOU NOT LIKE MONKEY BALL??? IT'S A CLASSIC! (As Pops) I'm a big fan of Monkey Ball!
Mar as Pops: Jolly good game!
Penny as Rigby: Awe yeah! See, Pops knows what's up!
Mar as Muscle Man: You know WHO ELSE likes Monkey Ball?
28:03
Mar: You landed on THE Snapcube
Penny: ...K.
29:31
(Mar Remix)
29:55
Mar as Eggman: Could you please get off my woowoo machine???
31:33
Penny as Bentley: Sly! They're like DEMONS!
35:10
Mar: We'll- we'll let the two go.
Penny: We'll let the two go, the three go. The Shego. (Gasps and pauses game) Kim Possible...!
36:32
(Mario rises from behind the earth)
Mar: OH-
Penny: SHUT THE F*CK UP!!!
Mario: Time to take a p*ss!
Penny: Come on!
Mar: MARIO?!? DON'T DO IT!! STOP!!!
(Mario pulls an Eggman on the Earth and blows up the White House with his p*ss)
(Penny laughing)
Mar: MARIO, STOP!!! WHY?!? MARIO!!!! HE KILLED THEM!!
44:39
Penny as Sonic: AiAi, you're gonna get pulled over! You're doing 80 in a 25! AiAi, stop!
Mar: AiAi, stop! You're a monkey!
Penny as AiAi: (Monkey noises)
46:02
Penny: Ellie, if you're editing this
(Ellie gets the message and makes a funny ytp clip)
47:24
Penny as Chip: Hi Sonic! I'm back!
Mar as Chip: Hi Mr. President!
Penny as Chip: Hi Mr. President!
Mar as Chip: Hi Mr. President!
49:39
Mar: WHITE TAILS! WHITE TAILS! WHITE TAILS! NO!!!
Penny: TAILS!
Mar! Scary! Scary! Scary!
50:08
Mar: Rouge, can you tell me what to get at Gamestop
Penny: (Laughs) (Starts quoting the Bambi for the PS2 Green M&M post as Rouge)
Mar: (Also does that)
55:47
Mar: Oh, watch out for the C*vid 19s.
1:01:43
Mar: That's Goku!
Penny: Is that Goku?
Mar: That is Goku!
Penny: (Referencing that time her, Mar, Salty, and Joy/Dollip played Fortnite with soundboards) He's. Goku!
Appreciate the timestamps!!
mar makes me laugh so freaking hard just from his pure enthusiasm and energy in everything he says
PENNY PARKER IS BACK
The PENIZ had no right to make me cry laugh LMFAO
Penny's wild laughter gives me life.
52:30 Sonic 3 Spoilers
17:02 Monkey jumpscare
Cumkey
52:41 Maria doing a Michael Jackson
53:22 I had the vod on in the background while I was drawing, actually scared the shit outta me to hear my name in my ears outta nowhere
Edit the amount of relevant overlap between the plot of the Sonic Universe ARK and the Trinity Blood universe’s ARK is frankly too close and I don’t know if it’s a coincidence anymore 😂
I love that the cut down comp from the *_six hour_* stream (that I’m still delightedly gnawing my way through) is one (1) hour
35:14 _kim possible🥺_
50:44 “you can’t be talking like that, white baby 😰”
Legend says that everytime Penny says "weee" she suffers PTSD and fears for AiAi's bouncing bottoms showing up.
25:53 Timestamping this part just so I can go back to the digital crystal bit.
Shadow the Hedgehog is the most bizarre game in the world because despite all of its faults, it's also somehow the best allegory for transgenderism that's existed in the Sonic franchise yet.
9:59 in the PINGAS
59:30 "Hey Reference!'
