Thank you so much for making a video on this Carla, it means a lot to me. For my first iceberg chart this was very interesting to make. I'm sure this video will uncover a lot of new information to some people. The only criticism I have is that you used the wrong logo for Annoverse but I'll let it slide.

It's interesting to know that high quality instrumentals of some of the show's songs can be found online, presumably under the websites that the music libraries they used are found. These will definitely prove to be useful for things like mashups and YTPs. Also, I was surprised when I initially found out while browsing that a cover of the "Pirate's Scorn" cartoon existed from a pirate themed band (Alestorm), and it sounds superior to the original too. I think Nintendo looks at the show in a more favorable light than many other external cartoon adaptation of their games like the DIC Mario and Zelda cartoons and Captain N, especially given that it got a bigger following in Japan than in English-speaking territories and it got referenced in promotional things for the later DKC games.

The music library part is so fascinating to me, given how it's not just the songs but also some of the instrumental tracks which will be very useful. The examples I provided in the video are just (no pun intended) the tip of the Iceberg. I am glad the show is still officially referenced from time to time too, I love it

While rewatching this iceberg video I had an epiphany, I think "Lord Harry" might in fact be a reference to an american aristocrat known as Douglas Allen Booth, who helped to produce several video game cartoons made by DiC such as Captain N as well as Sonic and Mario cartoons. While he had no involvement in DKC cartoon, I think it might have been a because some people used to think DIC was responsible for DKC cartoon back in the day. I guess "Baron Douglas" warped into "Lord Harry" because it sounds funnier.

I especially found interesting Diddy in the Japanese dub having the voice of Rei from Evangelion and the apparent early scripts containing sexist and racist jokes, and something about my Donkey Kong name being BLUSTER (in minute 11:01) made me strangely proud. I don't know if you're planning to remake this video in Spanish, but if you do, I hope you add to the iceberg the Spanish memes and the ParodiadorAnimado YTPHs, they are iconic.

Took me some time to watch this one because I get.. Notoriously Salty whenever people call the show bad or only bring up memes, I am very defensive over it, silly as it might be. But! As I'm on a binge of the show again recently I felt compelled to watch it and I am impressed. Cheers for using some of my content! I have collaborated with a friend to rip and upload the Dutch dub to KZfaq (well, he did the uploading - I just sent him the tapes) so if you're curious about the Dutch dub, look them up! The VHS tapes are very rare. The two with the 2D art style on the cover seem locally produced. The dub is... not super good, especially compared to other media of the time. But it seemed to have had a decent budget, the intro song was covered by a popular band here, and DK was voiced by the same guy who voiced Disney's Aladdin. The DVDs are only subbed in Dutch. A render exists of the last season with flavour text that implies it showed on Nickelodeon, but neither me nor my friend have seen any proof of this existing (and the show was never on Nickelodeon here. Viva Piñata was, though.) ALSO noticed myself in there! Whoa! If I knew it would have been used in a video I would have made it a bit less informal, ha. Some addendums: Erika and I did not personally contact each other. I got the scripts from somebody who did, though, under the promise that I would keep them private. I've since lost contact with them, sadly. Thank you for being respectful about it.

Bananas, coconuts and just a bit of honey. Those would be the kind of flavors this iceberg video would have as a desert because it was such a sweet treat, bee. While there was already a fair deal I knew about the cartoon thanks to being friends with you and the creator of the iceberg, I was still surprised by just how much history this goofy video game show has. Would love to give a sum up of my thoughts on each layer, since I know you spent a lot of time narrating and editing this, with your pleasant, soft voice,,, ahem aaaanyways heh. On the surface there was a good mix of familiar and unfamiliar trivia. Was already aware of the Slap Once/Expand Dong meme and DKs popularity in Japan (The Bluster toy is very much blessed). What I really found interesting was the influence the cartoon seemingly had on 64, the Medialab interview, and of course the Alestorm band/cover. Also gotta love how the card game totally made Lanky Kong canon to the show, kinda like WD Gaster popping up in the Undertale card series heh. Shallow Waters started off on a really good note… that’s all I gotta say. For reals though, this is definitely where you started to show your DK smarts bab. From pointing out all the differences in the pilot, to Dixie’s fondness for pet crustaceans, to some pretty slamming references in DK Tropical Freeze. Something else I noticed is that starting from here with his lineage, Captain Skurvy starts to get mentioned more and more. Crazy to think this guy really had a fairly major role in the show. The Depths is where things really start to get far out. From all the could be official but very likely unofficial releases of DKC across to Europe, to Klumps very, temporary betrayal of K Rool. It is, honestly not surprising that the cartoon used public domain tracks (Except for the luxurious song for Leo Luster, how dare they half ass it/j). Surprised they never did a Spy/James Bond themed episode since they already had the kinda tracks available. The hilariously dark, fake subtitles and fake Crystal Coconut movie were good to see here too. The Fathoms, hoo boy can feel things getting serious. With all the theories like the cartoon being a prequel, which I can kiiinda see? To something I can tell you’re serious about and love for which is the Spanish dub. To non-existent characters like the Bog Monster, Aunt Grouchy, Apefucius, and Blusters Mom too, which happens a lot in cartoons granted, but something about this in particular makes the toon dk world seem more foggy and mysterious. The Abyss, oh my gosh this is, whew this is a lot. How in the Hell, did the early episodes of the cartoon almost get away with all this shi- oh hey that’s honestly a pretty good point about the Head Puns song. Huh, wow no wonder Propaganda Mickey got all aged and depressed hearing it as Mario Head joined in (props to anyone who knows dat reference). Hoping too a model release for at least DK himself can happen someday. The last section is,,, I don’t wanna comment too much on it, but can respect yours and others' understanding of the situation. You have a good heart, Skap, and such a clear, deep passion for the DKC Cartoon, which really made this video fun. Hope you can cover more iceberg topics someday, love you and the barrel of fun, interesting content you deliver on this channel.

I was not expecing you making an iceberg, but after three reps in Lawl Nova and a couple of DK reviews it is the perfect franchise to cover in this channel. The only thing I could add to this is the probably lost Basque dub which was once in a forum alongside many other cartoons dubbed in Basque, but the Mediafire links expired like a decade ago. I remember the episodes having unconventional translations, like the title itself being "Donkey Kong AND HIS Country" (kzfaq.info/get/bejne/ebmil7eist2-ZHk.html) instead of "Donkey Kong('s) Country". The theme song for example translates "Banana Slamma" as "Banana Sarta", which is literally "a hand of bananas" while there are actually more proper words to describe the action of attacking. I wonder how K Rool and the rest were named.

Here's a fun fact! There's actually evidence towards which episodes were rewritten. Looking at the Wikipedia page for the DKC cartoon and sorting by production order, eight of the first nine episodes were all written by the same person (Nadine Van der Velde), and thus are very likely to be the leftover storyboard episodes a freelancer rewrote. "Bad Hair Day", "Ape Foo Young", "Booty and the Beast", "Barrel, Barrel... Who's Got the Barrel", "Kong for a Day", "Raiders of the Lost Banana", "From Zero to Hero", and "Cranky's Tickle Tonic" are episodes 1-7 and 9 in production order, with episode 8 being the first Erika Strobel-penned episode. Could be worth watching sometime to see if there's any commonalities!

Aquellos que quieran ver el iceberg en español ya tienen mi vídeo el cual tiene subtítulos, y un problema que le vi a tu iceberg es que se nota que lo hiciste en gran parte solo porque ya tenías el mío de base para copiar trozos de la edición y realmente lo único nuevo que aportaste fue hablar de los memes del lado hispano de la fandom. Mi recomendación es que te enfoques en hacer vídeos de temas que verdaderamente te importen y que creas que puedas aportar una opinión y punto de vista verdaderamente propios. La serie de Donkey Kong es tonta pero significa mucho para mí, y es por eso que me gustaría que buscaras tu propia "serie de Donkey Kong" a la que hacerle un vídeo tan elaborado como un Iceberg.
