  • Awesomeness!

  • fuck japan

  • WTF did I just watch???!

  • Anyone elese came here from the Shallow Parady section of TVTropes?

  • 306 people either don't get it or don't have a sense of humor.

  • Am I the only one who keeps getting reminded of the creepy twins in The Shining?

  • again, im so conflicted here.

  • "Feels like I'm on some kind of opiates" XD

  • Why do I think that Popeye is only afraid of them because they're Japanese?

  • @hanzo661

    None of them actually look Japanese though.

  • Where is the hentai girl with immense boobs?

  • Co ja tu kurwa robię...

  • spinach must be a hell of a drug

  • WTF (what the fuck)

  • I just see this as parodying BAD anime rather than the genre as the whole. Because let's admit it, anime has produced some bad works (though all mediums have...)

    The main flaw with the parody is there isn't an annoying fanservice character, all bad anime needs an annoying fanservice character!

  • Haha popeyes like oh a plot let's turn it on it's head

  • I guess Popeye would look a little weird in an anime but you never know he might someday. I thought that he'll come around someday with a new show or something like in the late 70s, "The New Popeye Show" and 80s, "Popeye and Son". At least he still has franchise out and about.

  • Stoic expressions, Flapping mouths, Generic character Archetypes, Lazy Animation, Flimsy Characterization, Insipid "Plots". It's a wonder why Anime got popular to begin with (We were stupid kids or something?). I think maybe if the Japanese got a LITTLE more creative with their stuff (Like Miyazaki), the artform wouldn't be looked down upon these days.

  • @EdmacZ Dig for the good stuff. :P

  • This is better than what's on tv now days, it's up there with Transformers to me any way. Popeye should be put in a few anime series himself like "Popeye the Sailor: Back in Action" or named liked that or something. Popeye is all I watch any more its the good stuff now days. Put Popeye in Dragon Ball Z Kai, he has powers when he eats his Spinich, make him float and blow fire out his pipe for effects or something. Here's another title, "Popeye the Sailor in Anime." Popeye's strong to the finich.

  • @cougrs48 Exceept Popeye can't make the transition as well as the Power Puff girls can. Popeye would look weird in anime style.

  • dude, they just got all the crappiest anime and stuck popeye in there to make it look bad... Anime isn't all like that, try Durarara or MPD Psycho. both are pretty good and don't involve a freaky storylines or overexaggerated facial expressions. ...or card games on motorcycles.

  • that voice, is from nappa from TeamFourStar?

  • DAMMIT.. YOU RUINED MY FAVORITE CARTOON..I'm sorry Popeye!

  • WTF did I just watch????

  • i wonder what popeye would do in the Avatar the last airbender universe?

  • O.0

  • Do Anime vs Marvel and DC Universe, anime will get whooped to the Nth degree in that comparison. You will never have one like that, know why? You are more likely to see anti anime people with that comparison for one main reason, Anime doesn't stand a snowballs chance in hell to even light a candle to that. Heck, the animated Peter Pan from 1953 is better than every anime i have ever seen even now.(granted noone can beat disney but that isn't my point)

  • You people are freaking me out!!!

  • Can't we just say they're both products of animation and call it a day?

  • @MrBoynton27 I agree let's just enjoy our own shit

  • I loved the anime characters reactions when he ate the Spinach xD

  • Comment removed

  • CARD GAMES ON MOTORCYCLES!!!!!!!!

  • Comment removed

  • Like having those ridiculous forearms ... and getting super strength from spinach makes much sense.

  • @thetylife More than Sailor Moon in terms of sense thats for sure

  • "WHOA! WHAT THE HELL?!"

    I actually laughed hard at that!

  • WTF?!? LOL!!! Popeye's reactions are priceless. It seems every Anime cliche is present big eyes, speedlines, ridiculous hairstyles etc.....Good post.

  • You almost got the anime part now...

    You're just missing the men that look like girls.

  • Ok high as a kight lmfao!! hahah popeyes tripping! is this all real?

  • what the hells wrong with popeyes arms?

  • lolol look at these guys flaming over a joke! makes the joke even better!

  • @MALDASF anime all the way, the women in American comics are ugly, heroes are wack

  • I was actually a little offended by this. Not all anime is like that however shitty anime like Naruto (I hate naruto) with a bunch of shitty reactions, bad lip syncing, embarrasing faces and a bunch of other crap. Not all anime (or manga) is shitty poses, transformations, stupid expressions, heroes, awful "badassery", spiky haired characters, hyper expressions, cute characters, armies and/or random backgrounds. Im not a weeaboo, I just want everyone to know that those are just clichés and shit.

  • @wowpockopaalt thumbs up if u agree

  • @wowpockopaalt i know what you're talking about. these stupid trolls giving anime a bad name through stereotypes and idiots who will believe them.

  • @wowpockopaalt I think most people, including the guy who animated this, acknowledge those things. But really, that phrase "not all anime is..." sounds shallow. Anime isn't a genre, and as long as we treat it like one, these cliches will always persist. "Good cartoon" and "good anime" really need to be synonymous phrases in our minds.

    I mean, I felt Macross and EXO-Squad were both great shows for similar reasons. Does it really matter which country they came from?

  • @KillYounglings

    However, the word "cartoon" is often viewed as something meant to appeal to kids. I think this is part of the reason why the words "cartoon" and "Anime" are rarely considered synonymous. Before people start viewing anime and cartoon as the same, the way we view the word cartoon would need to change.

    As a side note, this video really disappointed me... As a big Popeye fan I wanted to see Popeye interact with actual anime characters rather than made up characters to fit a cliche.

  • Comment removed

  • Popeye is the Chuck Norris of the 1930's.

  • Sailor Moon meets another Sailor... Haha

  • yeah DBZ was on japanese anime far before they put fake voices of Goku on Cartoon network... although my favorite american cartoon was on MTV liquid television "AEON FLUX" or marvel comics got pretty nice color details...

  • @YujiTheO2BKillaOno Hell yeah Aeon Flux! Hadn't heard that name in a while. Great example of western animation at its best.

  • this video needs a top comment...

  • @hyperpepper Yup... we all want to believe in Popeye the Sailor Man! This man could make Chuck Norris his bitch (even though i like chuck norris) if he wanted to.

  • @hyperpepper HA HA HA HA HA YEAH! In all seriousness, american cartoon characters are what started it all and popeye alone is proof that you don't fuck with the one who originated it all unless you want to be punched to the sun.

  • @HamonLord anime originated from disney not popeye

  • @TheTurtleKing100 well yeah, but popeye is still american animation and disney is american animation and american animation started anime for the most part, so popeye, mickey, and bugs deserves worlds more respect by default. Period.

  • @HamonLord just because they're all american animations doesn't mean they deserve more respect. anime was based off disney not every american cartoon.

  • @TheTurtleKing100 yeah... but american cartoons are just more classic, rich, and refined... that's why i respect and love them more than anime, even though anime is pretty damn cool and epic too.

  • @HamonLord Agreed!!

  • @HamonLord Don't forget full of racism and intolerance. Can't forget that.

  • @warlordgorgutz1 and what does that have to do with american animation being better than or worse than anime?

  • @HamonLord Well you were listing what qualities they have more of than anime, I figured I'd throw in the two you were leaving out.

  • Can someone tell me what just happened.

  • I love popeye.

  • @hyperpepper Your Post = The Truth!

  • Comment removed

  • @HamonLord Your post miss spelled !

  • @jacksharville it was just a typo, dude. nobody's perfect.

  • i love anime

  • the lilttle fairy things are cute and also

    WHAT IS THIS AND WERE DID IT COME FROM

  • Ew, dubbed anime.

  • @ZaingerMakante Ew, anime.

  • @noobyvids3 Saying "Ew, anime" is like saying "Ew, movies" or "Ew, Television shows." They're all different and shouldn't be generalized.

  • @ZaingerMakante No anime is bad.

  • @noobyvids3 Why?

  • Genius

  • @MultiMrBacon

    hi ya sorry about the misunderstanding cousin wrote not me

    sorry and i agree

  • @MyDenis0

    Sorry about the misunderstanding i left the cumputer and my cousin was here and used my account to comment and that is what SHE wrote so don't think it was me

  • Back in the good old days you didn't need collect all 7 crystal balls , combine all 5 transforming mecha, 2 minute transformation scenes, or swipe trading cards will riding a motor cycle .... in the good all days if you wanted the job done all you needed was a can of fucking spinach !!!!!!

  • @hentaipanda07 This I agree with. Popeye beats absolutely any anime character in awesomeness and badassery. :D

  • 289 people need to score some thorazine; THEY'RE COMING DOWN HARD!!

    ;-)

  • " ooh floatin babies huh"

  • Listen all you motherf*** Anime is the best got a problem them talk to me

  • @Ms1Animelover1 youre joking right?

  • @Ms1Animelover1 As an animator, anime is not that good because they use little frames & lack of movements but I have to admit that anime do make great storyline & human figure. I don't hate anime by the way. I just don't go nuts over it. Japanese animation is the most popular animated cartoon in the world so it's okay if you like anime.

  • @Ms1Animelover1

    What the fuck is your problem? Just because others don't like anime doesn't mean you have to tell people not to watch other things. We're all different so shut the fuck up!

  • USA comic is better then anime.

  • @hyperpepper Guts from berserk, but you don't know him since you only know popular shit like naruto

  • @hyperpepper he would lose against guts by garness alone

  • card game on motercycels

  • pffffft as if he could take down Yusei

  • Lmao

    

  • Idk why but this is highly enertaining

  • Comment on my Top 10 Halo Nerd for next weeks episode on Top 10 ways to find out if your a Anime Nerd xD

  • lol at ppl pinning disney characters against anime. hasn't every played the kingdom hearts games?

  • @EnragedTurkey kingdom hearts is da shiz! XD

  • Vegeta: FINAL FLASH!!!

    Goofy: o.O Woooah!!....*Turns black with funny eyes* Ahhoogh! ^.^ gooosh.

    Vegeta: WHAT!!?? BUT HOW!!??

    Goofy: Ahhh shucks...>.< looks like somebody needs a goood ol' friendly hug! ^.^ *extends his arms to vegeta and hugs him*

    Vegeta: *dies*

    Porky the Pig: Adadadada...That's all folks! ^.^

  • @massivecrown Funniest response yet!

  • lol Mickey Mouse and the f*ckin House Club can beat these guys with a blind fold man. XDD

  • lol, okay okay...If this was a real fight, Popeye would still kick their asses. =] C'mon people It's not that hard to realize. lol, HELLO??? Cartoon logic?? X) Popeye would simply just whip out his giant hammer and murder all these little pricks. And if some power ultra mega super being (lets say...Goku) was to perform some sort of powerful mystic blast to him...He's simply turn to ashes with little googley eyes and rise back up again. lmao, Cartoon characters are pretty much invincible. ;)

  • @massivecrown

    You forget that glorious combination of turpentine, acetone, and benzine that we all know simply as Dip. Can wipe a Toon right off the map.

  • And that's....Why you don't f*ck with America! ^.^ go get em' pops.

  • the anime depicted in this is nothing like most anime...

  • "I'm not entirely convinced any of this is real."

  • The only way this could be funnier would be if Popeye started singing the song from "You're a Sap Mister Jap"

  • I liked Popeye but I think Anime is better now. It seemed unbalanced to me in this video if you did actually compare them Anime has an edge over it. In every episode I remember in Popeye he eats spinach and beats up Bruno almost every time not much story wise. While in Anime its story establish morals and values and gain something from watching it. Such great storys like Akira or Metropolis. Todays times it has greatly evolved but its noticable that Anime is far ahead of regular cartoons.

  • @TheLanceOfGallia Popeye was for a broad audience mainly emparting the connection with healthy eating and strength, the military and the under-dog message. (Plus undertones of weed - Wimpy's munchies, Popeye's pipe permenantly in his mouth, his 'pop - eyed' squint, his poorly coordinated walk, his trusty tin of green)Anime flirts with the esoteric and explores the fantastic. Neither is better, just different formulas. One is comedy the other HAS humour but isn't the main theme.1930/40's - 80's +

  • @TheLanceOfGallia btw it's Bluto not Bruno

  • ЛЮБИТЕ аниме ??? хотите много нового и интересного аниме тогда вам к нам anime-art.at.ua вы не пожалеете ! уверяю вас ! всё новое

  • Anime is good and all, but you can't beat classic 30's/40's cartoons. Alot of anime fans need to get out of Japan and look at some of the greats. Like the Ralph Bashkie films, 90's cartoon shows and some of the modern Adult Swim shows.

  • Lol! At least popeye is sensible.

  • Fuck that Jap crap which comes straight from their bloody toilet, gonna watch some badass popeye while eatin' spinach

  • Real anime fans don't watch the mainstream shows. GURREN LAGANN

  • @ChuckNorrisAssassin Your a Faggot.

  • @ChuckNorrisAssassin wow i sure wish i was a REAL anime fan like you. i look up to you and i wish i was you. you are the coolest person ever and you should be president of the world. nigger.

  • @ChuckNorrisAssassin

    Your username is a LYE.

  • wtf -.-

  • WHHHOOOOOA!! WHAT THE HELL!! hahahaha XD

  • Lol popeye is awesome XD

  • We're all entitled to our own opinions, but half (if not more) of the comments on this video are just pointless trolling and cannot be even considered "opinions"....

    Anyway, I think this video is hilarious! It's exaggerating common stereotypes in Anime (from an American viewpoint), but it also subtly pokes fun at our own cartoons: the way it ended, the level of suspension of disbelief & bizarre anatomy.

    Both sides have their appeal, so it's unreasonable to actually argue over what's better.

  • I couldn't type more in my last post, so I'll back up my middle statement here.

    -Anime has some crazy stuff in it, but most can't be considered "suspension of disbelief" because it's explained in the story. You don't question the X-men's mutant powers because we understand why they have them and (to a degree) how they work. In Anime it's the same. The abilities are always explained as part of the story (many of them have to do with eastern philosophy, so not everyone may understand this).

  • I couldn't type enough in my last post either....

    (This comment is more opinionated. I know.)

    -Excluding super-deformed style (chibi), I believe Anime to be more realistic. Our cartoons and Anime are stylistically different, but Anime only really exaggerates things (Women have larger breasts in boy's Anime, the "muscle-head" type guys are ridiculously muscular to make more obvious, ect.) while our cartoons cannot be explained apart from being a "style". Also, Olive Oil's arms break physics.

  • lol lov it

  • american cartoons suck balls they are gay that is why the usa dose not make money off cartoon but japanese people do ahhahahahahahahhahhahahahhahah­ah

  • @InYourBackwards You need to calm down.

  • @iSushi3000 For your information, Popeyes was one of the first cartoons. It basically was one of the founders of cartoons that all cartoons are based off of. Without Popeye, anime wouldn't be the way it is. Plus, no one watches naruto or bakugon. Those shows are terrible. You're probably too young to understand. But old cartoons are much more entertaining than anime.

  • @Echoparticle hmm very true and i remember cartoons when they were actually still drawn and not computerized but dont dis the current shows, if u grew up in there generation you would like them ^^ current shows arent allowed to be so violent anymore and lack the many elements that made up older cartoons=/

  • @unbreakablewill On the contrary, I'm 16. I did grow up in the 1990s-2000s. I have to say, I grew up when television at least was funny and entertaining, in the 90s. Shows like the Powerpuff Girls or Samurai Jack. And then I had to sit and watch while everything turned sour right before my eyes.

  • @Echoparticle then we feel the same way, srry for mistaking you for being older the way ya said it gave that appearance

  • @Echoparticle Not really Popeye isn't one the first cartoons. One of the first cartoons were Oswald the rabbit, Betty Boop, Mickey mouse, Popeye and last Tom and Jerry.

  • @TheKipperbackup123 Am I the only one who finds it ironic that you claimed that Popeye wasn't one of the first cartoons, and then in your list of the cartoons that were first, you listed Popeye.

    Also, Tom & Jerry was pretty early, but still came after when the era of cartoons had started and everyone was getting into the biz. Merrie Melodies would have been a better, more suitable thing.

  • Screw popeye!!!!! Anime is alot more imaginate then american chartoons n stuff

    Much mire entertaining too

    Who didnt grow up watching pokemon or naruto or one piece or backugon or yu gi oh or the list goes on for a while soooo

  • It takes something like this to demonstrate the sheer WTFness of anime-verse logic... Excellent satire.

  • Hey people listen. ANIME IS NOT LIKE THAT AGAIN. and besides, it's dubbed so it means that some stupid company like 4kids or something has taken over it and dubbed it because the originals ARENT ENGLISH.

  • @TheANiMeCrAzY21 omg 4kids isn't THAT bad... take a look at Toon World from YuGiOh Japanese vs English music.

  • @TheOffensiveuser I dont like 4kids X3 but one thing i do like is the theme song of mew mew power for it. that song is as catchy as can be.

  • Comment removed

  • Anime is cheap and takes no talent to make, well it would take more talent to make, but japanese animators (esp. today) are lazy. Wonder why a good portion of anime looks the same? And why they are new episodes belted out like nothing? Because it's cheap and limited to near Hanna-Barbera levels. I'd be able to respect JP animation a lot more if they knocked it off with the stereotypical bullshit and start getting more versatile, oh and the fans would be a help too.

  • @EdmacZ go watch paranoia agent.

  • @InYourBackwards ROFL! Caps lock toally DOESN'T make you look like a n00b ;D

  • Because Anime Sucks Ass

  • @InYourBackwards What's with the new name, too many people hurt your feelings? Yes, yes, we all get it, you finally learned how to use your caps locks button, but really, where does being such an asshole get you? I would like to hope in the future you can pull your head out of your ass and realize what happened was so long ago. Kindly, please go troll somewhere else. Thank you.

  • He's popeye! The drug addict!!!

  • wow... just wow

  • I'M COMING DOWN AWFUL HARD

  • Popeye needs to sound more Irish sounding.

  • CARD GAMES ON MOTERCYCLES!!

  • I liked perfect hair forever better...

  • @RayShadow I think the Captain is a parody of one of the characters from Macross/Robotech. Though, the Captain in that show was not all buff and beefy like this guy.

  • @MDthornton83 he reminds me of captain avatar from Star Blazers.

  • great job popeye!

  • I would have they same reaction to some freaky ass anime...FLOATINGH MIGDETS

  • The floating babies and the serious captain guy made my day :D

  • 1.23 is popeye seeing this argument.

  • pawned by a spinach?

  • bleach music

  • @Tige9999 I don't know why you got so many negative votes, Tige999, I thought what you said was very funny.

  • @arnyjk I agree. Cowboy Bebop is my favorite nighttime amine of all times.

  • 0:52 <3 hair penguin

  • People, For the love of Xenu! Think before you type! By the beard of Lincoln reading these comments is like listening to a Ke$ha song. It's incoherent gibberish slathered together with curse words in an attempt to sound human.

    On another note: Heh, Popeye is amazing! Here's a fun fact for all you viewers, did you know that Popeye was originally a side character in a series about Olive Oil? That's right, Olive Oil was once bigger than Popeye! :D

  • @ThePopculturist U MOTHER FUCKER Popculturist , DON'T U ASS KNOW THAT I CHANGE MY IP ADDRESS

  • @afvo6i it's okay. You don't need the caps lock anymore. We accept you as you are man :) It's okay.

    I'd also assume Popeye has a larger penis than Olive Oil as he is a male and all but perhaps that's just pointing out the obvious...although it seems that it's most needed here. I am Australian, yes, I keep my IP open. Why? Because I'm not afraid. ;)

    Now how about you stop being an internet tough guy and calm down mate. :)

  • @ThePopculturist BRO, IF U NOT AFRAID SO NOT AFRAID SO WHY U FUCKING TELL ME UR FUCKING
