Notice that this is going to be a review of the Pencilmate era. Not a review of the Hank Hanky era.

It was amazing back then, but since Pencilmate came in, what happened?

If there is ever webshow that should have been ended years ago, it should have been this.
Welcome to ReBlue Rants. Let's talk about a series that remained my favorites and became a fan of it for weeks. Pencilmation.

The series started in 2004, a year and a half before YouTube became well known. Ross Bollinger, it's creator, was very good at doing cartoons. This one is no exception. However, Elsagate became a thing on 2014, so that lead us to the topic of this review: Pencilmate. His cartoons were good back then until season 10, when he is starting to warm out his welcome. Especially on 'Clowning Around'. THAT IS the short that lead to the shark jump of the cartoon. Also, new characters were introduced in season 10, and they all look either dumb (Pencilmiss), stupid (Pencilgrandma...?), or very annoying (Mini P.), and Ross is starting to add the 'Pencilmation Cartoons for Kids' tag after a video title witch has absolutely NOTHING to do with Pencilmation and instead it's out of place and confusing. And it gets worse with the comments section...dont get me started on it...

Long intro, right? Then...lets go and rant this crappy Pencilmate era of Pencilmation because there is ALOT of problems with it. Here we go.

POSITIVES
Most of the animation is pretty good. And the music is okay.

NEGATIVES
As I said, the comments section on those new videos are very atrocious. Most of it I've seen is people liking it because of the poor plot and storylines (more on that later), most of it I've seen are in Spanish (I mean seriously. These comments that are in Spanish is very put of place, unfitting and nearly not so understandable if you are an American.), most of it I've seen are in gibberish, and flodded with emojis and a jumble mess of letters. These aren't actually comments. These are comments written by...Satan! Yes, Satan wrote these comments. 🥁🤣

Anyway, as also mentioned, the new characters are very lacking in quality. And also lacking Hank Hanky! Seriously! Give poor Pencilmate a break, Ross! Also, most of the storylines is now poor. Most of it is lacking in quality, and most of it is looking at the bad of the series. And lastly, clickbait. It is annoying, out of place, confusing and unfitting for a cartoon maded by a professional animator.

Overall, these new shorts are the worst ones Pencilmation has ever given us. Distracting clickbait, poor story lines, and the opposite of the word 'art', all in the nutshell. For true, TRUE art pieces by a professional animator, I recommend PixarFan 8695. This guy is a professional CG animator who can do Pixar-quality animations geniusly. Some of them are very masterpieces, and some are them are awe-inspiring and gets a lot of potential than Pencilmation's Pencilmate era.

RATING:
0.2/10 (Skip it.)
