Psychotically Fun!!!
perfectx-7141520 September 2023
This show is the pure description of a bad acid trip! !! This is really only meant to be watched just to see how far animation can get with its shock factor and with how many different animations it can blend seemingly together. A truly bizarre trip down animation that seems to be somewhere between Cartoon Network psychedelic cartoons, MTV Liquid state and newgrounds. You can see each ones homage in the art. The only missing seems to be a good narrative. Every episode just ends with the dog getting abused in somewhat way. If your an animal rights guy this may not be your kinda animation. Over all fun and bizarre.

Great web series

Warning: Spoilers
This show is so surreal and dark, which is what I'm looking for!! Too bad this gem is mostly overlooked. 2 stars taken though because I'm not too much of a fan of the animation, not exactly the worst but what do I know lul? Especially part 3 was my favorite. Ugh makes me feel so bad for Alfred having to deal with an alter named dictator pickles into grooming Alfred, that one really got me. I liked the others too! It's such a fascinating story and I would recommend, though if you're sensitive to gore, heavy subjects, and seizure inducing imagery, then I really can't recommend this to you then, unfortunately.

Representation
itsscenequeenu28 November 2023
This whole thing is a great representation of the feeling of sexual trauma and the feeling before, during the moments, and after. Emily did an absolutely amazing job at this whole creation. The visuals and sounds used are incredible at showing the feeling of the chaos, confusion, disassociation, and panic of dealing with sexual assault, abuse, and trauma. Yes, this does have some things that may be offensive to certain people, but I feel like this is just how to Emily shows her feelings and beliefs. It's still amazing even if it's pretty graphic and/or offensive. Are is supposed comfort the disturbed and disturb the comforted.

You shouldn't watch this, but not for the reasons you might think.

It's not the usual edgy Newgrounds content. This is a vent piece from a 16-year-old creator who was confirmed to be traumatized in the same way Alfred was. This 16-year-old also voices Alfred, making the scenes where he screams in realistic agony very disturbing.

The sides of the debate surrounding this show ("this is just nazi propaganda" and "muh coping mechanism") are both fundamentally wrong. The problem is not the edgy content. The problem is that consuming this series is voyeuristic. To watch this like it's something as typical as Family Guy would be to use the raw, unfiltered anguish of a real child as entertainment. It's like gawking at someone bleeding to death. This series is a long unanswered cry for help.

The only value this series has is that it offers a genuine look into a traumatized mind.
