One of my favorite subtle cosmic horror elements of The Amazing World of Gumball is that secondary characters are terrified of being boring. It sticks out, because it'd be more expected for kids to worry that they're "annoying" or "not cool"... boring is an odd choice of descriptor.
In The Storm, Carmen temporarily breaks up with Alan because she fears their "perfect" love is becoming boring. In The Colossus, Hector is sent over the edge by Gumball telling him he's boring. Clayton admits his reason for habitual lying is because he's a loser, and all of his true stories aren't interesting. Tobias feels like he should be entitled to a sidekick and exciting adventures, because he's rich and colorful and he's earned them, and yet his life is mundane.
It's not like they know what happens to you if you're too boring
But maybe they've got a sense of it in the back of their heads.

I love it when fandoms just, like, agree on what a handful of non-human characters look like as humans. Everyone’s just like “yep that’s correct”

Amazing World of Gumball
I love the way that over the course of the show gumball goes from a clueless but well meaning kid with a touch of murphy's law, to just a straight terrible, overly sarcastic, selfish, actively going out of his way to make other people's lives worse, person.
Like from season 2 onwards the show never misses an opportunnity to just remind you that yo this dude is a bad person but he'll pull through if he has to I guess. And I love that so much.
We need more just blatantly terrible people as protagonists.
Amazing world of gumball is just Always Sunny for kids.

My gumball human design!!!
the reason why his hair changes 3 times is because the voice for gumball would change at the end episode. the hair styles are inspired by the actual va's hair styles when their picture was taken
i thought it would be a funny idea LOL

Bringing this good 'ol art of Nightmare-ball/Dark Gumball from last year (P.S: I used to watch those video of Nightmare-ball when I was a cringey 10-11 year old kid in 2020 btw!)
Anyways, for all of you who don't know this AU (I guess), then here's a playlist for you to watch one of Lylie Punez' Nightmare-ball series
