WELCOME, VISITORS!

Hello, I'm ThatGuy456, a user here, and a fan of the show The Amazing World of Gumball. This page is for those who are curious about yours' truly.

History with the Show
I remember first watching The Amazing World of Gumball on the premiere date of May 3rd, 2011, and thinking "It looks interesting. I like all those mixed animation styles". Up until 2013, I remember being a casual viewer that would watch the show if it was airing at the time, but otherwise wouldn't care.

I don't remember how it happened, but what I do remember is that starting mid 2013, I was coming to this place more often and really started to become a more knowledgeable about the show.

I started to become more hardcore at approximately June of 2015; I was a hardcore Nintendo fan that did not play much of anything else outside of a couple PC games (Nintendo fanboy, much?). E3 2015 and I was stoked for Nintendo news; needless to say, I was disappointed. Ever since, I have been becoming more enthralled into the show to fill that hole in my heart, and as of recently, I've been trying to get back into gaming, specifically with emulators and Steam (I only have 2 steam games and 2 emulators [with no ROMS] as of the time of this writing, so maybe not much progress was made in those regards).

As of October 23rd, 2016, I have joined the wiki.

Why Do I Enjoy This Show?
Now, if one was to ask me what my favorite television show was, as of the time of this writing, I could say without doubts The Amazing World of Gumball; this show just does so many things right to the point that it just "gets me".

The animation of this show is quite stellar. The multiple styles of animations all meshed into one product is a very novel concept, and it's something this show does well. The clashing art styles, in fact, was the original reason I even gave this show a chance. The visuals were impressive back then, and they're only getting better and better.

The Amazing World of Gumball has a style of humor that manages to make me laugh most of the time. The sarcastic quips, the physical cartoon humor, the meta jokes, and all of the more dark and adult jokes just come together in one pot and weld into a show that can get a good laugh out of me.

The show, in addition to being humorous, also has genuine heart in it. The family dynamics of the Watterson family manages to make me smile; as cliched as it, this is a close-knit family that have each other's back, and I just find that sweet and adorable. Gumball's relationship with Penny is also really cute and heartwarming. Despite both of them having huge flaws that most people dislike (Penny's emotional instability with her powers, and Gumball being...a Watterson), the two find love in each other, and don't care what other people think. This program has also produced many episodes that have proven it can be just as sweet as it is humorous.

Overall, when I watch this show, I get the sense that the crew behind it genuinely cares, and it only makes the viewing experience that much better.

Random Trivia

 * I'm a male currently still attending high school
 * I was (probably still am) a Nintendo "fanboy"; back in the days, Nintendo products would be the only video games I have
 * I have Steam account; here's the thing: I only have 2 games (Sonic Generations and Team Fortress 2), and I only found out that TF2 came free with every Steam account last week; I still haven't downloaded it though. (Gaming failure, much?)
 * Recently, I've been trying to embrace the emulator side of gaming, but so far, my emulator journey has been a failure. I got the Project64 and Dolphin emulators for the Nintendo 64 and Nintendo Gamecube, respectively, but as you all know, Nintendo is...Nintendo. My journey is at a current dead end.
 * I own a Wii U, Wii, and Nintendo 3DS. In addition, my cousin has a Playstation 4 and Xbox 360, so I do have some experience with the competition.
 * Mathematics is my best subject in school. It comes easy to me for the most part.
 * Pepperjack cheese is the best type of cheese.
 * This actually is not my first Wikia account; if you hit me up in the chatroom, I can tell you the story of my 9-year-old self.
 * The 4KIDS dub of Kirby: Right Back at Ya! is an example of how to dub an anime correctly. Fight me if you disagree. (Just Kidding, mates.)
