Somebody wake Billie Joe up, Lu & the Bally Bunch finally dropped on Cartoonito USA today.

...And have him immediately go back to sleep because Max just purged their most popular CN shows on CN's 32nd anniversary.

Found a cool new fandom on Scratch, of all places. Lu and the Bally Bunch may be a literal preschool show, but the character designs are SO FUCKING CUTE. I even coined a name for the fandom: Invertebros (male)/Invertebrettes (female)/Invertebrats (unisex).

I remember back when the Lu fandom was small and still really active- I had so much fun making those Lustrips and small edits. Same goes when I did a few small edits for Donkey in the past too, and Bluey (although that fandom is far from small.)

Next month marks one year since Season 1B, the latest piece of Lu content, dropped. It was a blessing initially, but it kind of killed the fandom because of the hiatus after.

Anyways, small fandoms rock!

shoutout to the people working for hours on content that only gets ten notes. i’m kissing you tenderly on the forehead as we speak

🎪 Meet the Tiniest Digital Circus! 🎪

Gangle & Kinger

❤️ Gangle

——————

Regressor (50%)

Pet - Turtle (50%)

——————

Regressed age range: 2-4

Like Pomni, Gangle is also sweet, shy, and sensitive.

She is an art kiddo. She loves to draw and do arts and crafts with Ragatha. She even teaches Pomni how to do crafts.

Gangle has a bunch of scrapbooks to contain her artwork.

Ragatha, Zooble, and Kinger are her caregivers. All three of them take turns looking after the little artist.

Gangle is a pet regressor, mainly a turtle regressor. She is more timid when small. Like Pomni, she likes to wear hoodies, and she hides in them or behind Ragatha or Kinger when she gets scared.

Her favorite little foods are apples, grapes, and carrots (turtles like these things, too).

Gangle likes to learn about animals. She watches a lot of kid-friendly nature-related shows.

She loves Sanrio, San-X, and Disney Princess.

Her favorite princess is Rapunzel because they’re both artists.

Her favorite animals are turtles, chameleons, and hamsters.

She has a lot of animal stuffies. She carries one with her everywhere she goes along with a baby blanket.

Her baby blanket is light blue with a mama turtle and baby turtles embroidered on the corner.

She loves Squishmallows, especially the turtle ones.

Gangle loves stickers! She covers everything she sees with them.

She loves to play Animal Crossing! She doesn’t have every game in the franchise, but she is grateful to have Animal Crossing (Gamecube), New Leaf, and New Horizons.

Her favorite villagers are Ione, Judy, Fauna, Lily, Margie, Marina, and Cookie.

As a sibby, she protects Pomni and loves her with all of her heart. She invites the little jester to draw with her and will read her nature books.

💜 Kinger

——————

Caregiver (40%)

Babysitter (30%)

Guardian (30%)

——————

Kinger is Gangle’s main caregiver, but he is willing to look after anyone who needs him.

He makes the comfiest pillow forts in the circus!

Kinger never took the classification test before now, but he has had experience as a caregiver. His wife, Queenie, used to be a regressor before she abstracted. Caring for Pomni, Jax, Ragatha, Gangle, and Zooble fills the empty hole in his heart.

As a royal, he knows that rules and routines are a must to keep everything in order and little ones happy and healthy. However, he isn’t too strict; he’s authoritative like Ragatha.

He has a lot of insect-themed regression gear (stuffies, sippy cups, bottles, pacis, etc.). He also has insect-themed toys and books.

Speaking of books, Kinger loves reading to his littles. He likes to put on funny voices for the characters in each story he reads.

He throws the best royal tea parties! Gangle and Ragatha are always the guests. Pomni also joins in after warming up.

Kinger plays Animal Crossing with Gangle. She lets him catch the bugs and fish while she digs up fossils and designs the island and clothes.

He lets Gangle decorate his robe with stickers when she asks him.

He likes to put on Lu & the Bally Bunch, Miss Spider’s Sunny Patch Friends, Beat Bugs, and Ben and Holly’s Little Kingdom for the littles. The shows are always a huge hit! /pos

He collects Jellycats and Squishmallows like Ragatha and Gangle. He can have insect-related ones as a treat :3

He also has insect Pillow Pets.

After episode three, Kinger started looking after Pomni more, and Gangle was excited to have a playmate/sibby.

We want Cartoonito on Cartoon Network to expand its schedule in the United States again, so we can have new shows like Lu & the Bally Bunch.

Cool

The greatest cartoon rivalry since Homer and Flanders

Many people in the L&tBB fandom don't understand how crying works in the show (and this may sound weird, but I will explain.)

The entire point of Lu and the Bally Bunch is to teach kids how to cope with starting pre-school, and there are some crazies in the fandom that hate it when the preschoolers, well, act like preschoolers.

Believe it or not, sometimes, preschoolers are SELFISH and WHINY and they cry A LOT. And frankly, if you can't cope with that, I don't think Lu is your cup of tea.

And then there is the part of the fandom that is borderline obsessed with tracking down every scene when the characters shed tears. This is why there's an entire page on the wiki dedicated to crying, because of there wasn't, then episode titles would flood the character pages.

Don't get me wrong, the Lu fandom is great! But, there is a small minority of people in it who have questionable ways of interpreting the series.

TRIVIA: Tried posting this in a certain trans-positive meme subreddit; someone sicced the RedditCares bot on me. Guess they couldn’t handle the Tumblr style.
