Surely this will end the debate within our loving community! ^________^
On the real though, I enjoyed making this video a lot. Hope you guys enjoy it too. More Monhun vids are on the way!
whats your favorite monster?
@@sl33py20 tough question... i think overall my favourite regular monster is Gore Magala, and fav elder is Alatreon
@@flyann2 my fav monster is Gammoth
I mean, in every clip you showed he was enraged when you cut his tail.
You have to cut it off while he's exhausted, and there can't be any meat around.
And it's still a low chance.
I'll try to get a clip of it in 3rd. Through where could I send it to you?
Thank you for putting this to rest, now we can all finally sleep at night again.
You didn't do the important part to get jho to eat his tail, you forgot to pet the poogie.

After capturing all of the 28 MHtri monsters, look under the ship in Moga village to find deviljho eating its tail
But there is only 18 monsters.

@@pitdarkangel2961 well obviously you forgot alatreon
So its true
Tail is real 2041
Lore wise, 100% a Deviljho would absolutely eat their own tail, it makes sense considering they'll eat anything. It's just odd that it hasn't been added as a mechanic for him in the franchise yet.
because it would be annoying as fuck to spend so much effort cutting the tail just for the bastard to eat it so you can't carve it..
It took until World to make severing Rathian's tail remove the poison status from her tail attacks.
@@seanr.6498 I am like 99% sure you can still get poisoned by Rathian tail attacks even after severing, in both world and in Rise.
Maybe just like us, the villages of Monster Hunter also spread rumors
@@boredgamer7841 they could just play the eating animation and nothing else
I love that this feels like something a research team of monster hunters would do.
Countless hours of observing and hunting one species, just to figure out if it will consume its own flesh or not.
TRUEEE GOD XD
Monster Hunter 6 releases: Deviljho picks up its severed tail in its mouth, swallows it whole, and only leaves a shiny to carve.
Capcom: 😏
I honestly hope he *does* eat his tail in MH6 because the idea of him eating his own tail is such a deviljho thing to do
even better Deviljho swallows its tail whole and pops out of his cut tail, mending it.
He eats his tail and them you lose your carve and dont get any itens, them you made a rare drop that you can only get from his tail with a 6% drop rate and you need that to do basically every weapon/armor piece he has and even some other weapons from other monsters
@@Vi_-_ glorious
Capcom likes to elevate memes and this isn't even western exclusive. The Chinese and the Japanese also went apeshit about it.
the biggest case of self gaslighting in a gaming community ever, what a fantastic series
Why do i have a vivid memory of him eating his tail in 4U but no one is able to record it… is my life a lie?
@@davidjonathan2692 i remeber him eating the tail but in 3U in the wiiu but yes i rember him eating his own tail, but i also rember mh3 crasy hit boxes so maibe deviljho eating his tail in 3u was a programing bug
Made me question my memory i have seen him chomp tail since mh3 :D
@@davidjonathan2692 Yes, the brain makes shit up sometimes. Thats why the mandela effect happens. People have "vivid memories" of the berenstain bears being spelled "berenstein" but that doesnt make it true
@@zentryx32 I also remember him eating his tail in 3U and I’ve seen videos of Jho eating on long plays. I’ll have to find it again..
Has anyone considered that hunters would be extremely pissed if they wanted the material from the tail but he eats it, making that pretty much impossible while batting you around first and using a Jaggras Great sword?
Shock trap go brrrr
I just figured the Deviljho would "eat" the tail with a munching animation, but leave the actual tail there for hunters to carve, like how most monsters' corpses persist so you can get all the materials from them
Could have it leave something behind that has the loot that would otherwise be from the tail
That's actually what people used to say when I heard it ate its own tail. They'd say when fighting the pickle and you cut its tail, carve asap or it will get eaten and you'll lose your chance 😂
What upsets me the most is for years I have prided myself on informing friends and new players about the ins aand outs of Monster Hunter and all the unique details, secrets, exploits, tactics, and lore. The fact that I have spread this bit of misinformation despite never seeing it happen is saddening. It also just makes too much sense and would actually be badass. I remember telling people to make sure they carve before he eats it.... Damn me!
A lot of people spreading this that say they HAVE seen it though. 🤷♂️
Dont worry about it lol, lore wise, its possible that the deviljho does eat his tail but yea, dont damn yourself for it
Godbless u :))
No no no we arent wrong we cant be i have seen it ! SEEN IT WITH MY OWN 2 EYES !
@@BackroomBandit It's most likely other players were placing meat inside tail. I remember always placing meat Everytime Devil Jho went to a new zone back in MH3U. Many players did this. There was probably a portion of the MH community who would put it inside the tail and so people saw it happen and now nobody can replicate it because the players who were doing it aren't playing MH3U anymore.
it's real. happened 3 times in my experience in playing mhp3
I feel like Deviljo eating his tail was just something Capcom said as a lore description for it. Kinda like how in Pokemon, a pokedex entry will say something like "This pokemon flattens mountains" or "This pokemon eats people's dreams" but we never actually see them do it, we're just told that they CAN do it.
the "eats people's dreams" thing is just the dream eater move that a lot of ghost and psychic types learn

And the other is Resident Evil.
@@CaptainCFalcon Yes.
The funniest part about this is that the community actually liked to troll around Deviljho back when he was released by actively putting meat under his severed tail.
Little did they realize these videos would troll the community once again several years later.
The greatest trolling of all time.
Madlads are geniuses.
ah yes the tale as old as humanity, "History repeating itself" xD
So that what happened that’s crazy my first monster hunter experience
I was looking for this comment. I was 100% in the gang of making it look like jho was eating his own tail by putting meat under it back in the mh tri days. Has become a running gag for me and my mates.
The entire video, I was wondering if he did eat his own tail, because outside of putting meat under the tail, I've never seen jho do it.
Imagine that Jho is in Wilds and he DOES eat his own tail there.
this myth is actually really similar to what we have back in mhfu times. there is a longsword named centenarian dagger which in the description says "is able to cut lao-shan lung's tail" but no one actually did it
Oh yea I remember trying the entire fight because that lmao
the deconstruction of the portable 3rd clip is the most insane detective work i have ever seen. the way you deduced the exact cut they made out the meat texture to achieve the same pixel arrangement in your own simulation is straight up mind blowing
Yeah......other numerous videos debunking it had nothing to do with it
@@atcera8714 (i hold you in a loving embrace and we lock eyes for a moment before passionately pressing our lips together)
@@behavey based
we don't see the pixel before tail is cut tho. And it would be quite stupid to miss that pixel before recording the video. Surely they must have tested visiblity of meat after texture swap. Seems sus.
@@vazazell5967a majority of textures are one sided, so from the angle we see it there are no pixels, then we see it from a different sngle
This story blowed my mind. I played monster hunter 3 ultimaite when I was still a kid. At the time, I never watched any video on the subject and never read the description of monsters. However, I was sure I had seen the Devijo eating his own tail.
I remember clearly vividly from MH4U a devil jho eating its own tail and preventing half of our squad from carving it
I am pretty sure this is a "reverse Mandella" effect because I also remember seeing Jho eating its own tail, in MH3U, without any prompt other than being fatigued and in the same area as its tail when it happens.
@@arahelis2038 Me too !
@@killerbug05 this is why no-one invites you to parties
@@switch_axe wasn't tryna be mean or nothin but I was wrong anyway..ig blowed is technically correct
I feel like I am being gaslit, because I have multiple very vivid and distinct memories of seeing Jho eat his own tail in solo hunts in Tri, and no. There were no popo, ludroth, aptanoth or anything else underneath the tail he would have been eating instead. I've lost carves to this guy eating his own tail. I got into the habit of mid-fight carving BECAUSE of Deviljho.
Me too. I'm sure i have memories of jho eating his own tail on world
Ya didn't sadly
Memory is profoundly unreliable.
I, too, remember this vividly from as far back as monster hunter 3 tri. I stopped to watch it because it was the strangest thing I'd seen up to that point. No monsters nearby, no multi-player. Just a wild Jho.
I, too, got in the habit of carving anything that dropped because of this guy. Though that was due to getting carted lol. For me the first time was area 5. Hell, he even shows it on the map there.
Mine was in tri also. Quropeco called him in and I fought both for awhile and I got his tail off, and after getting exhausted he eats it. I haven't seen anyone get a jho exhausted for this experiment.
If I had a nickel for every time Jho eats his own tail, I'd have no nickels, which is fine, but it's weird that it never happens
Finally, a version of this joke that's funny.
I-... I've died so many times to rush carve the tail the moment it got cut off to prevent it from getting eaten... just for it to not have ever been a problem in the first place
I wonder why no one's tried decompiling Tri and reverse engineered the sections for Jho eating things. Feels like it'd be easier than testing manually for weeks and combing through every piece of footage that exists
That's a lot less fun :p
Okay, then do it? Clearly the guy you watched does not know how to do that
@@buritomaster
“I wonder why no one has done this” =/= “I can do this”
@@buritomaster But there are people who can. That is the point he is making. It has to be easier than Nintendo and people have cracked those games to edit the game files for BDSP just to look and edit the broken calculator in the German version. Games this old typically have very simple programming languages with low security in comparison to modern systems.
@@buritomaster How about you do it lmao
I'm positive I saw Jho eating his tail on Tri. I believe it was the World Eater quest.
Thats the arena quest right? I am positive he ONLY does it in the arena, ive only ever seen him do it there multiple times
@@krimsonk-9478 Nah, World Eater was the one where he was HUGE.
@@ThereIsNoSpoon4 yes i remember he was huge in it, i just dont remember the quest location.
Yeah I've also seen him eat it in Tri but only once or twice but I dont remember seeing him eat it in 3U.
The name makes sense. In Norse mythology, the world serpent eats his own tail.
"He'll eat your poisonous meat"
Damn I didn't know Jho was chill like that
I'm so upset because I have vividly seen Deviljho eat his own tail on a singleplayer hunt, but I've already heard that he did so I didn't think to capture it.
Yeah same, I'm sure I remember seeing Deviljho eat his tail on a single player hunt in monster hunter world.
@@shadowhunter642 the human eye inst perfect, what we think we see and what actually happened can be very different
@@beepbeeplettuce5890you’re right, but I DAMN SURE have seen jho eat his tail in tri, a few times as I played it online religiously with 1200 hours logged
Fuck, we all got mandela effected
I did as well, don't worry fam, we part of the Jho eats tail camp.
Unrelated but there's something very cozy about deep dives into niche things like this, by content creators with a genuine passion
Totally! This is probably one of the most useless information I have gained within a period of 17 minutes, yet it was still very entertaining/interesting and I will remember this info for the entirety of my life.
I’ve always believed in that Deviljho could eat his own tail as a rare thing to see.
Similar to how a Seltas Queen can kill and eat a normal Seltas!
She only does this when certain conditions are met and even then it’s a very rare thing to experience!
That what I always thought about jho eating his own tail, it’s just a rare thing to see.
This is a mind screw I swear I remember fighting a Jho in 4 Ultimate and I cut its tail off and before I could carve it the Jho began to eat it preventing me from getting anything from it and I was so upset about it because I needed a Jho tail to craft something.
You remember wrong
The part you brought up at the end with the client side small monsters is actually really interesting. When me and a friend of mine were trying to get it to happen in GU, there was a moment where we were clearing out velociprey so they wouldn't interfere, and he was attacking one that was nowhere near him on my screen. I think this perfectly explains why so many people swear they've seen it, they technically have, it was just an illusion created by multiplayer desyncing instead of natural, intended behaivor.
No I've definitely seen it happen in single player haha, Though he has to be exhausted with no meat sources around. HOWEVER it has been removed in newer games so he probs wont do it anymore.
Note I've only ever seen him do it in 3U never in any game he was in after that
The Mandala Effect. In all seriousness, you need to find an expert MH game ripper which then can research and dig into all of jho's movement animation and values to confirm whether or not jho had an exclusive feature like that. The alternative way is to find the guy who worked on jho and ask if did he or did he Not add something for jho to eat his tail.
I might know a guy
The developer way probably wouldn't work, Monster Hunter game developers are infemous for spreading mis information, adding stuff in future game or hidden updates, just to troll the community
Why can noone spell his name properly its the same as it sounds
@@kujojotarostandoceanman2641 Bruh, that's actually pretty hilarious. Devs should gaslight their fans more often
You mean the Mandela Effect. The Mandala Effect probably involves spinning something.
This blew my mind. I swear I have a memory of this happening in 4U, I even remember the specific room. Crazy how collective consciousness and the power of suggestion will work
Maybe there was a small monster under it, maybe a teammate put meat under it too. This has been quite the revelation
I swear I have seen deviljho eating his tail back in the Tri days. It could be that the monster's tail dropped on top of already existing meat. It was over a decade ago now so I'm not certain, but just my two cents. I was with 3 other randos so it could be one of them put meat down under the tail just to play a prank. I remember being very surprised to see him eating his tail, and I also can't recall it ever happening again.
This is mind blowing. I have a distinctive memory of Deviljho carrying his tail off when I was trying to carve it in World. He also killed a Kulu ya ku during a capture quest. It was already limping and he just picked it up and started slamming it against the walls and I was powerless to do anything until it was dead
Wait now i sorta rmbr this now that you said it,. Holy
That’s what I thought
You could have just flash podded the Deviljho to make it drop kulu
You and me both, turns out the tail just despawned for me
@@meodrac But... In every MH Game that i played, the tail of a monster cant despawn until the monster itself despawned after it was defeated. Like in a multi hunt quests a monsters corpse will despawn after a set amount of time and at the same moment the tail despawns, too. So if the deviljho was still alive there is just no way that it could have despawned, except if it belonged to another already dead deviljho in a multi quest...
Although we have found out that he likely does not eat his own tail, something that is true is that this rumor and word of mouth fact has existed since Tri's release and is not due to the NHC productions video. The rumor really is completely tied to how Deviljho was presented to us and it's the main thing that made people believe he can do it.
In reality he probably would. Cannibals as they are
Really enjoyed that man, would love to see more deep dives!
I swear I saw this when I was starting out high rank in 3U on the WiiU
I was in the middle of a glacial agnaktor quest, deviljho showed up and scared the hell out of me. I was starting to get used to long sword, and managed to cut off the tail. Cha-cha and Kyamba were getting his attention, so I went for a tail carve. As I was carving, he walked up and ate it! I got the text "nothing was carved" or something along those lines.
You know, mentioning small monster desync actually gives me an idea. What happens if the host kills a small monster and has it land on top of the tail on his screen? For other players, the small monster will be elsewhere, so where does Deviljho go to eat in that instance?
Plus, when Deviljho eats something, you become unable to carve it, right? What happens when Jho is visually far away from the thing that it's eating? Does it cancel the carves of the small monster miles away, or does it cancel the carves of the thing closest to Jho?
This is no longer about eating the tail, but there are mysteries still to be solved...
Monsters don't eat small monsters you kill, they spawn their own special versions that they kill to eat. But yeah those can align with tail.
I'd genuinely swear on my life that I saw it happen in tri back when it was still online. It was in area 2 on flooded forest near that log where you can gather the frogs. I genuinely can't imagine that being made up, unless one of the other players put meat in the tail all the way back then.
I saw it in 3 ultimate, and that was before I joined/searched anything related to monster hunter on the internet
15:01
15:10
Cope
I felt the same way about 3U
My brother and I started with Tri, and never seen him eat his tail.
We heard stories from other players in Loc Lac about this phenomenon, but never cared about it one way or another.
I think the dev just misspoke in their excitement, and the only way this story can end now is one of the “researchers” in World’s sequel saying the same thing, but Deviljo still can’t eat its own tail.
My first time playing monster hunter world back in 2018 i was doing a quest in the wildspire waste, i dont remember what the quest was which could be an important part but i put it on gods life that i saw devilhjo pick his tail up in his jaws shortly after i severed it. It was in the center of the map where there is an landbridge and kestodons, however i never kill and and they were on the opposite side of the bride still cowering. What i do know for sure is that it was not a devilhjo quest and all i was trying to do was get a devilhjo material to try and see if it unlocked his armor for me to see. Believe it or don't the choice is yours, but i saw it happen, just not him gnawing at it like he does to pinned hunters or placed meat.
I love this channel, on a completely unrelated note, I thought this was about the wyverian egg debate though
That's a good question though. Do they lay eggs?
Speaking of false memory/mandela effect, mine is very peculiar because it was not preceded by myth or hearsay.
Back when i was around 9-10ish years old (yes i was that young when i first played MH on PS2) i vividly remember, to this day, that my weapon got stolen by a melynx. And when i tried to attack the hunter just does this "shrugging off" animation. I even remember the specific area where it occurred. And since i've never seen it mentioned anywhere before i just shrug it off as my overactive imagination
i had it happen on psp during the desert area on freedom unite and i literally thought it was my imagination awhile ago because it seems like no one else metioned it. somewhat think it was damaged copys of the game stealing item - weapon number rather than stealing item - bag
codes couldve got damaged due to the discs my freedom unite was a 2nd hand and was indeed scratched to hell.
@@frasercake another Capcom game were weapons disappear is the old god of war 1-2 if your game disc was too scratched to load the next zone properly (our just too scratched) upgrading your weapons will make then disappear and not do damage except for moves that spawn a secondary hit box like plumes of Prometheus or the tackle combo.
@@vanconojlDid you just say God of War is a Capcom game? How could you possibly be so wrong?
@@Ratzmoonmopes you are correct sir, it seems that during my late night typing i confused crapcum and phony for one another, a most horrendous mistake on my part.
I think the reason why Deviljho doesn’t eat its own tail is because the tail is part of its model and would maybe require special tags for it to be eaten. Maybe Capcom’s team couldn’t figure it out
Pretty sure as a kid when I was playing 4 ultimate I remember seeing a deviljho eat his own tail. It’s still pretty faint in my memory but I remember seeing him or another deviljho (not sure which it’s been a long time) eat another (or it’s own) tail while I was hunting it on heavens mount.
Jho might not eat his own tail, but I have personally witnessed him eating an Odogaron tail.
Well honestly if he does that, it wouldn't be surprising...
*but do you have a clip?*
He eat's other tails, just not it's own.
In Tri or 3u (can't remember which), there is an even quest to hunt 2 deviljho. If you cut one of the rail of the 2 monster... There is a chance the other will eat it. (And yes this is confirmed true)
The problem is, the jho that the tail was cut off from will never eat it.
@@reallycantthinkofausername487 no? Lol. It doesn't even seem to be that rare of an interaction. Saving the clip 4 years ago in preparation for this moment didn't exactly cross my mind.
@@SynysterProjects let's not have a repeat mandela effect, if its so common there should be some clips of it
@@reallycantthinkofausername487 I'm sure there is. I'm not your bitch. Go find one yourself if you don't believe me.
The fact that even official Capcom merch shows Jho eating its tail is so surreal. Mandela Effect at its finest
I distinctly remember a jho eating it's tail in 3U. The tail sprite didn't go away, I just lost the ability to carve it.
I have seen people put meat down to make it look like he was eating his own tail several times before hearing about this. I always took it as an in joke, only hearing about this as a big thing in the past few days. That may have fed into people thinking they have seen it happen not knowing what people were doing.
God i love the monster hunter community. The monsters; their story, the weapons and armors; their play styles, the lore, schraide kingdom, mechanical dragon, wyverian egg, and now deviljho tail. Cant believe i used to avoid these types of games because i was afraid of the monsters and i didnt know how to use the controls.
Wait, you were afraid of the monsters? Half of them look goofy as hell

I think I experienced this once, where it ate it's tail and lose the carve option there. It was so long ago so I am not sure, but I was spamming arrow rain move, and my partner uses a weapon that can cut it's tail. This was in MHP3rd
Why does every body care if devijho eats his own tail leave him alone
No :)
LOL
No :)

No :)
As someone who started with World and stayed/stays out of the communities. When I fought jho in the introductory quest I remember severing his tail and him running around eating things. Then suddenly his tail was gone. But I'd never seen a tail cut despawn before so I just assumed he ate it when me and 3 others failed to locate it. I don't imagine stuff like that helped.
deviljho can used his tail as a weapon by bite it up so... maybe that's why
As a long time fan, I gotta agree. Monster tails don't tend to dissappear unless the monster is dead and has despawned.
Yeah, i totally thaught i remembered him eating his own tail back in 3 and 3U but it totally could have been an instance where the downed small monster wasn't there on my screen. I even remember telling friends about him eating his own tail. Best Mandela effect to ever grace us😂
In Tri for Wii he definitely did, might have to go look into the code to confirm. Also have you tested it eating another deviljhos tail in Tri that could be interesting
Believe it or not, I never thought jho would eat his own tail. I didn’t even know there was a rumor around it and I’ve been playing since 3U.
its only a couple of days old. and yes, in older games, he did. I'm not sure if he still does it in world or rise or generations ultimate tho.
@@dero4378 im pretty sure that in mhw i see deviljho eat it, and my reaction was "WTF?"
How come nobody has just just asked Capcom's MH team themselves about the topic? Maybe they'd be willing to let people see for themselves if it's really just a lore thing or if it's built physically into Tri

In MH4U, I saw a Deviljho eat his own tail. The quest was taking place in the arena, where he had nowhere else to go and nothing else to eat. I may have been unnoticed by him when he did it (farecasted and came back after a bit), I can't remember, else he probably would have spammed his pin attack to eat me instead. Maybe worth trying to replicate in World: cut the tail of a Deviljho in an arena, wait until he is tired, then farecast away or use smoke bombs.
EDIT: Actually, I may remember wrong. I tried to repeat the experience in MH4U with Deviljho in the arena and he never ate his tail, even when I fastcaster away and came back with smoke bombs when Deviljho lost sight of me (even when his tail was right in front of me, but maybe he ate his tail when I was not here?). Someone pointed the games were datamined and monster corpses are written as interactable, but not the tails, meaning Deviljho will eat dead/captured monsters (even another Deviljho), but never tails.
I feel I remember seeing it in the arena in MH4U as well, so don't doubt yourself fully.
I never heard about this as a rumor or anything, I simply just witnessed the Devil Jho doing this. There's enough people with that memory first hand that I think there must be something to it...
I also think i've seen Jho eating his tail back in the days
Love the dedication to all this detective work!!! Top-notch, no question 💯👏
Deviljho ate its tail for me ONCE in more then 1200 hours in generations ultimate and I remember It because the carve was gone and all and i was pretty mad. At the time I didn't know It was such a conapiracy, had i known I would have recorded.
I remember doing a solo hunt and seen jho eating its fucking tail.. I'm already aware it could eat its tail since it's been a meme in an MH community I was part of..
I also lost the loot when he eats its own tail and surprised
Same. For me it was savage jho in 4u. Ate his tail and it disappeared.
Same for me in mh4u. Spent over 1500 hours playing it. I saw deviljho eat its tail at least 3 different times on me. Maybe it was implemented in the later of the series as they wanted to troll players back then?
Or the carve just despawned.
So strange. I remember cutting his tail one time, turning my back to continue fighting, seeing him do something by the tail, and the tail disappeared. Only like 30 seconds to a minute passed between me seeing the tail on the ground and not seeing it. It wasn't like 5 or 10 minutes had passed or anything like that.
I never actually knew this was such a big topic, and never really looked it up cause i always assumed it was a feature. And i remember from the back of my head seeing deviljho eating a tail, but im not sure if it was it's own tail. It's just odd because i don't remember ever touching this topic or looking for it, i just watched a lot of monster hunter gameplays.
I started playing in Gen, andy first exposure to it was some endgame players dragging my noob butt around on endgame quests. We were fighting a savage Jho, and when someone cut the tail off, they were like, "hurry, go and carve before he eats it!" So I did. And then I always made sure to grab the carve quickly. And I told the generation after me to do the same. It's so crazy that it was always false
Same thing happened to me back in 3U. One of my friends told me to hurry and carve the tail before he ate it. I had hunted Jho offline before that and never saw him eat his own tail, but I figured it must be an online thing; and so I've had that in the back of my mind until the present day, without ever actually seeing him eat his tail.
15:45
Funny you mention this because I believe this is exactly what happened with the Poogie question. I recall reading an interview in which one of the game's leads stated in no uncertain terms that petting Poogie does nothing.
I think I know one way some of us got tricked. During deviljho fights I would just spam bait and meat on the ground, and there's a pretty good chance to cut the tail right when he's trying to eat it, landing it over the bait
I never saw Jho eat his tail but remember carving nothing from a tail
Dude, you are flipping epic. The real Hunter Sherlock… Tri.
there would have to be some kind of flag on the game object that would make it consumable. so if some one could use a resource editor to read the flags on the things DJ can eat, vs the things he wont eat, then look at the tail object (my guess is there's a separate object when it's on the ground) to see if it has that "eatable" flag.
There's a 2 Deviljho quest in MHP3rd and I remember seeing it happen, but I guess I'll have to play it again to check.
Since now is way easier to record it, probably I'll.
Maybe what I remember is seeing one Deviljho eating the dead Deviljho, but if that's the case, Deviljho didn't eat his own tail, but he ate another Deviljho.
I always thought it was weird that I've never seen him eat his tail after hunting more than a hundred Deviljho.
I witnessed a Deviljho eat its own tail on a quest once. I forgot the name of the quest, but it's a special quest in MH3P where you slay it with no equipment. And I'm a hunter who does not bring any raw or tinged meat on hunts because my inventory space is filled with combo books.
Try making it idle once you cut off its tail and hide near it without carving it.
This. This is where I first remember seeing it happen. The no-armor quest.
You know i absolutely have vivid memory of similar things happening in 3u. I remember cutting off his tail and him lunging at us, then immediately turning 90 degrees back to his tail to eat it. It didn't disappear though as I'd expected.
That said, with common knowledge of his appetite there was absolutely meat on the ground in a few spots and it could have landed on one. Beyond that I'm sure there were small monsters to eat as well.
Very strange having such a vivid memory of mine challenged. But also love how much work the community, and yourself have put into this. Well done on this one
I remember Deviljho running from me in Moga Forest in 3U. He was exhausted and he went to area where we fought before (area 5) and there was his tail laying almost at the very center of that area. He went straight for it and that's how I remember it lol.
I don't even know that devil jho eating his tail is a myth, not after watch this video. Cuz i have that same vivid memory when i was playing mhp3rd, i see him eat his tail. But now i'm start doubting my self abt that memory, strange xD
Ok this alone confirmed my memory. I saw him eating the tail but it didn't dissapear.
2:41 omg I NEED this sad palico pic
I'm very late to this and this is amazing. Seeing the dedication of one man trying to get a pickle to cannabalise its own body part
I feel like this is something I've seen happen, and yet now I'm second-guessing myself. I always jumped right to carving the tail in fear it'd be eaten, but I guess I don't need to do that? Probably what makes this myth so widely believed is that it feels like it would be true. If Deviljho can eat dead or sleeping large monsters, then if anything being able to eat its own tail feels more believable than those things it can actually do.
This reminds me of the time I found out that Yian Garuga was not a hybrid monster and I felt like such an idiot for believing that it was for so long
I love this video so much, I fully believed he could eat his own tail too until I saw this title and thumbnail in my recommended and went "Oh yeah I never actually saw him do it"
I really appreaciate the amount of effort you're putting into these videos!
Just wanted to say you make my favorite Monster Hunter content around! Keep it up :)
this video made me laugh, it made me cry, and made me smile. truly a 10/10 masterpiece
Today is the first day of me hearing about this debate. I could have sworn I seen it happen in 4U about two or three times. Stuck mainly to single player, sometimes carrying para and sleep meat. Usually conserved them because I didn't want to waste them.
I remember it being in the area where the Diablos fight cutscene happened. This was a few months after its release. My early 20s.
I could be misremembering. I thought I remembered it eating his tail then leaving the area. I go to try to carve it and I couldn't.
it's like the "mew under the truck" but more extreme lmao
I stubbornly stand by witnessing this a handful of times. I never even heard of it as a rumor or announcement, I learned it was feature by seeing it blind firsthand! But your research and reasoning are top notch. Subscribed
Same thing i remember freaking out and tell everyone he ate his own tail when i saw it aint taking away one of my favorite memories because there no recording on wiiu or 3ds
Same here! Saw it first hand and without ever hearing about it from anyone.
Spoiler: you didn't because it's not a feature in the games
@@feathero3could’ve been another hunter placing meat under the tail, it’s literally not in the code
WOW. Never once I actually stopped to think about it, but yet it feels so crazy to not have seen him eat his own tail. This was such an interesting video, thank you!
Now thats how urban legend works.
It's a lore that it eats its tail, but not in game, it appears.
That Dragonator shit goes so deep, no way he'd ever risk touching that with a video
I definitely remember seeing deviljho eating his own not once but 3-4 times and the first time that happen, I was like oh fuck he's his eating his own tail and that was in Mh tri
and the other time we're on Mh Generation but it's weird that there's no video of it
I've seen his tail vanish from the map right before he was about to eat something next to it, but in Hubdreds of attempts through these games he has never eaten his tail. Capcom gaslit us all.
I've played 4U for at least at thousand hours, I can literally offer my right hand to the Elder Gods, because I've saw a Jho eating his own tail when I was little
Same for me in 3u, I cut the tail in the right forest zone on the volcano map and I got really mad because I wanted his gem and it took the carves from the tail.
Lmao no
I have seen him do it too
Both me and my brother saw him eat his own tail on mh4u
Me and a friend definitely saw it in 3u, snow map
Mandela effect is a hell of a thing. People will swear up and down on shit that isn't real because they are SO convinced that it is haha
You could have just looked in the code.
Deviljho was really eating his own tail in MH3 and MH3U. I witnessed it
Poogie! Maybe the devs had planned on it, maybe concept art. And they forgot lol
Back in the the day when I put over a thousand hours into tri, I ran sword and board. When deviljho came I vividly remember him eating his tail when you severed it, and tried to carve it IMMEDIATELY after. He would push you out the way, then start monchin. I remember using my hello kitty keyboard to type to other hunters warning them NOT to carve after severing tail cuz he'd eat it. I know you said you did a BUNCH of testing, but did you consider that an option?
Stay Awes9me
Nope. Easily tens of thousands of hours across the MH franchise. With thousands of djo hunts. Never happened.
it's real i've seen it twice
Never happened dude.
7:30
No problem. Filming a screen with a camera was a common setup back in the day.
I coulda sworn I saw it once, in mh4u. I don't know what else it could have been, maybe my palico?
Could it be possible that the tail eating animation was cut from the game as a whole early on and simply never returned due to bugs/conflicts?
Welp, I never knew about this conspiracy and I have never saw or ever thought of Deviljho eating its own tail and I've played 3, 3ult., 4ult and world.
13:58 Well, the fact that guy's tweet got deleted and that his account is gone now says all we needed to know.
ok i could be remembering wrong but back in try there was this event quest to hunt 2 deviljhos called rage match, during that event i saw the 2nd one eat the 1st ones tail. now i could be remembering wrong or someone in the match could've put tainted meat in the tail to mess with us but i saw it happen.
That's because deviljho will eat another monsters tail. The video was made to disprove him eating his own tail. Not a second same monster eating the first ones tail.
clearly he can and will eat another monsters severed tail, no matter the monster! X3
this is the biggest slay I’ve seen all week
Jho did eat his tail when my bro and I were playing 3U... I was more devastated at the fact I never got to carve that tail and may have spurred my habit of carving tails despite being in a warzone.
I remember him eating his tail the first time I really hunted him, and I remember this because he picked it up and went off with it before I had a chance to carve it, like what Odogaron does carrying those giant meat chunks.
I've without a doubt in my mind, seen a Deviljho eat his own tail. It was in tri on the volcanic map more specifically in area 4. Unless someone rips apart the behavior data and can show me that there is no such behavior, or unless several devs come out and say that they never programmed it to, I am going to continue to believe that Deviljho can in fact eat its own tail.
I’ve seen a deviljho eat the tail off a live monster it was crazy
