Happy Reuben Day 2024! 🥪👽😎

Everyone's favorite Sandwich Boy has stacked up fan art from today and the past year like a Dagwood!

625 Reuben by Harara (X/Twitter) – Seeing him running across the panels is... not like him.

625 Day by kurage0404 (X/Twitter) – Oh, there we go! That's more like him.

625 Day drawing by Kinowan (X/Twitter) – Good thing he always has a Dagwood sandwich on hand to refuel!

Happy 625 Day! by boreuben (X/Twitter) – While Angel would likely have a plush of Stitch to cuddle, Reuben would rather enjoy eating a sandwich with a plush of himself!

Happy 625 Day!! by soar072_cartoon (X/Twitter) – All hail the king of sandwiches! (But shouldn't it be the Earl of Sandwich?)

Reuben with big sandwich drawing by kurokuma824 (X/Twitter) – Little Reuben, big sandwich!

Cowboy Reuben by Dkyoken_0425 (X/Twitter) – Wanted for the robbery of millions of dollars worth of the world's most valuable sandwiches!

Reuben drawing by @psychedelic-lemur (Tumblr) – He may not get the attention from Disney that his immediate predecessor and immediate successor get, but he's just as cute and fluffy as both of them!

アンタも食ウ?? (Are You Eating, Too??) by Nexusthelife (Pixiv, X/Twitter) – Looks like you caught him making yet another sandwich!

Gantu and Reuben drawing by @lordwiggyton (Tumblr) – Finally, it wouldn't be Reuben Day with his buddy Gantu by his side!

[lordwiggyton]

Jumba x Pleakley (Jumbleakley? Plumba?) Whatever you call it I SHIP IT LIKE FED-EX!!! Never considered it much as a kid, I just always found them a funny duo, but now I'm older and I see all the different friendship and family dynamics in this franchise (like Lilo and Stitch, Gantu and Reuben etc.) and the romantic ones of Nani and David, I can't help but ship these two alien goofballs! They're always together, they care for their ohana, they're so different, but can't do without each other (as shown in Leroy and Stitch). So I naturally have to draw shippy art with them! 🥰🥰🥰😁😁😁

Ramble over. Have a cutesy sketch of them!! 🥰🥰🥰🥰 (I have more sketches lined up, I just wanted to post one)

revamp of my Lilo & Stitch experiment sona who i ship with Captain Gantu 🤭 bringing back Gantobyte and introducing them to tumblr for the first time 🐬❤️

my sona is technically a fan design for an actual canon experiment, of which i picked from the canon list after taking my usual sona design and "stitchifying" them. i picked one that matched in personality, and wasn't featured in any of the canon media therefore making them fair game! meet Nobyte, experiment 459 - "Designed to eat every food in sight so the food's owner can't get a bite." sounds like me alright x)

he adapts to he/him pronouns despite being referred to as "it" in experiment documentation and being defined genderless. he is 8ft tall, still small compared to Gantu's 20ft. Nobyte's size allows him to knock back ungodly amounts of food, for his intended creation purpose! there's more text on the ref sorry if it's crispy, i cba to add zoomed versions of the text u can zoom in on tumblr pics 🥲

Nobyte was a rare capture for Gantu. upon bringing him back, Hamsterveil wasn't interested in the experiment and didn't request his transportation, it served no purpose to him. Nobyte can speak English fluently, in a British accent (suspend your disbelief, he's my s/i after all)

after some of the usual jibing from 625 (Reuben, Gantu's so-called assistant), Gantu releases Nobyte to devour the sandwich 625 was about to eat in retaliation! Gantu and Nobyte laugh about it together, quickly forming a bond which grows over time - Gantu having a genuine friend and someone who actually believes in him, and Nobyte having someone to feed him and have good conversations with. he provides Nobyte with a smaller version of his own uniform and accepts him as his new closer assistant, much to 625's dismay, as every quip at Gantu now resulted in his lunch devoured before his eyes. Gantu realises over time he's managed to fall for 'one of the trogs' and finds himself not minding the idea of that ❤️

Anyone else ship Reuben and Gantu? Asking for purely scientific reasons of course

Cw // Gantu x Reuben (idk if there needs to be one- I just know that some ppl don't like this ship)

Inspired by my friend on twt who commented "NOW DRAW REUBEN GIVING HIM A SMOOCH ON THE CHEEK ‼️‼️" :D

[luxwazhere]

A HC that I've had for forever is that Gantu is like Lilo's 3rd uncle who gets called to babysit her sometimes when Jumba Pleakley and Nani are out

Happy (belated) anniversary to Lilo & Stitch: The Series and Stitch!

Yes, I know that the twentieth anniversary of the premiere of Lilo & Stitch: The Series (on ABC Kids) was on September 20th. I was sick back then, though. So, I'm celebrating it today on the anniversary of its Disney Channel premiere instead.

Lilo & Stitch: The Series continued our beloved titular human-alien duo's adventures on their home island of Kaua'i after the first film and the show's pilot film Stitch! The Movie. Throughout the course of 65 episodes over two seasons that aired within almost three years (September 2003 to June/July 2006), they went around the island (and occasionally elsewhere) to find, capture, and rehabilitate Jumba's other genetic experiments by giving them a place where they truly belonged. They also dealt with the ex-Captain Gantu, now working for Jumba's ex-partner Dr. Jacques von Hämsterviel, as they hunted down the experiments.

While Lilo & Stitch creator Chris Sanders, who reprised his voice role as Stitch in the show (as did almost all of the original film's voice cast reprising their roles), never really intended for his film to go anywhere beyond the one film he made, Lilo & Stitch: The Series has left a lasting impact with Lilo & Stitch fans everywhere that can still be seen to this day. Dr. Hämsterviel and his Python-esque Frenchman-sounding voice became recognizable while giving the franchise a proper villain. Gantu was fleshed out more as a character instead of just being a brute enforcer for someone else, especially through his interactions with the memorably lazy, wisecracking, sandwich-loving, reluctant sidekick Experiment 625, who we know today as Reuben. The second season did crossovers with other Disney properties before it was cool, with the casts of Kim Possible, American Dragon: Jake Long, The Proud Family, and Recess each joining our duo's 'ohana for an episode. Then there are the genetic experiments themselves, with their fun designs and wide and sometimes wacky abilities making a lasting impression on those who enjoyed seeing Stitch and his mischief while expanding on the (admittedly crazy and inconsistent) lore of Lilo & Stitch's universe. One of them, X-619/Splodyhead, even made a cameo in a Walt Disney Animation Studios film in Big Hero 6, while another, X-221/Sparky, who debuted in Stitch! The Movie, became a boss in Kingdom Hearts: Birth by Sleep. And we can't talk about experiments without mentioning X-624/Angel, Stitch's love interest and mate who became so popular in her own right that she now gets a regular influx of merchandise and has made several video game appearances, including most recently in Disney Speedstorm.

Not to be forgotten, the Stitch! anime series also recently celebrated its fifteenth anniversary of its premiere back on October 8th. The first spin-off made after the original Western continuity, Stitch! had the little blue alien crash-land on a small fictional island in the Ryukyu Islands called Izayoi, where he meets and befriends the tomboyish Yuna. During the first two seasons, which were animated by Madhouse, Yuna and Stitch go on their own adventures around the island, befriending yokai who live in the island's Chitama Forest, and dealing with Hämsterviel, Gantu, and Reuben again. Some of the experiments even return in this show, especially Angel, who became an intergalactic pop star in the (in-universe) years since we first met her on Kaua'i. The main plot of these two seasons is about Stitch getting enough good deeds to have the magical Chitama Spiritual Stone grant him a wish, which was apparently to become "ruler of the universe". However, by the end, he decides that living with Yuna is better. After Madhouse's 56 episodes (which includes two post-season specials), Shin-Ei Animation took over for the third season, retooling it by having Yuna and Stitch move to a fictional Okinawan city called New Town, going on wackier adventures there with her new classmates, while Hämsterviel now goes after Stitch on behalf of a big-eared humanoid alien woman named Delia to gain a power cell within him, using several experiments that he "transmutated" to do his dirty work. The 30-episode (again, including another post-season special) season also had Stitch reuniting with Lilo, now all grown up with a daughter of her own, for one episode. The main series of three seasons ran from 2008 to 2011; they were followed by two more specials, Stitch and the Planet of Sand in 2012 and Stitch! Perfect Memory (or Stitch! A Perfect Memory) in 2015.

Infamously, the English dub of the anime established itself as a post-Lilo continuation from the get-go with probably the worst-chosen opening lines to any sequel show ever, when Jumba claimed (later proven false by Lilo's aforementioned third-season appearance) that Stitch left her because Lilo became more interested in a boyfriend over him; such lines, which weren't in the Japanese original, caused many fans to swear off the anime series as "not 'ohana". However, as the years passed since Stitch! ended, the anime faded to relative obscurity, which in turn caused much of the hate it received to die down. In more recent years, it's now garnered some appreciation in its own right after years of ridicule and vitriol, with those such as Saberspark enjoying the show for what it is and making videos about their more positive thoughts on it.

My friend @angoraram made the drawing at the top of this post for this special occasion featuring Stitch, Reuben, Angel, and several other experiments well-known and obscure from throughout Lilo & Stitch: The Series (plus Dorkifier from Stitch!). She already shared this picture on her DeviantArt galley last month, but she also allowed me to share some special 5K desktop wallpaper edits I made of her drawing available in 16:9 and 16:10 aspect ratio versions. You can download these over here.

Happy Experiment Appreciation Day! 👽

Oh, yes, I'm still going to keep this tradition I established going. The genetic experiments are one of the many unique things of the Lilo & Stitch franchise, and they've been around since the very beginning. Experiments like Chopsuey (X-621) from the PlayStation 2 prequel game, the early version of Reuben (X-625) from the Disney Adventures prequel comics, or... you know, Stitch (X-626) himself.

Here are some fan art of the genetic experiments made in the past year!

Yaarp by @kiwibon – As if the little blowhorn wasn't already cute and fluffy enough, here his cuter and fluffier than ever before!

Zutto Fights by @salty-nebula – Oh, no! Gantu's strike team have all been transmutated by Dr. Hämsterviel! (Well, three of the four actually were in the Stitch! anime's third season, but Hammerface didn't.)

Sparky, Spike, and Yaarp by Kinnachan456 – A trio of this artist's favorite experiments! (Also, lucky Yaarp getting two appearances here!)

Experiment ZBrush renders by @konnestrasketch – (Clockwise from upper-left: Richter, Splodyhead, Gigi, and Finder) Never expected these guys to get 3D renders now did ya?

Clip and Slushy by @blubird513 – Clip hides a devious mind while Slushy gets excited over making a perfect ice cube!

一点实验品 (A Little Experiment) by lether – Shoe enjoying a little four-leaf clover while Bonnie & Clyde raise a toast to crime!

Slugger by mayoooon_626 – He's always happy to play ball! ⚾

#040 - Backhoe, #044 - Forehead, #051 - Hocker by @psychedelic-lemur – This artist's never-ending quest to draw all the experiments continues!

Hoppy Easter by @angoraram – I hope Houdini didn't get startled by the kids for Easter!

Evil Anime Experiments by @crees-a – Ih, even the Stitch! anime's most evil experiments are getting some attention, too!

That's it for this one. There's still plenty more days left this Stitch Week!

please do not interact if you self ship with Haida (the others are fine for doubles!) this includes his 'simps', crushes, and anyone who talks about him in a romantic or sexual way. you're absolutely valid, it just makes me uncomfortable to see or talk about. i'm getting better with this though ^^ patience and cooperation is appreciated in the meantime.

for the same reason, please don't interact if you kin the hyena species, Wakko, Ron or Legoshi. seeing others gives me the same discomfort in ways i struggle to explain, because of an identity disorder i'm not too comfy elaborating on in public, my apologies. you're equally as valid, just prefer you didn't interact that's all! i've received therapy for the disorder this year (2024) and it was pretty successful, i feel i can maintain it and myself as one! for now it's just better safe than sorry :')

my goal isn't prevention, only harmless avoidance. please respect my bounderies, thank you! your cooperation with my comfort, even if it understandably doesn't make sense to you personally, is appreciated ;;

I found a tweet from Japanese artist (and Gantu x Reuben fan) Nolly showing a page from a Lilo & Stitch book that was released exclusively in Japan. Apparently, over there, Lilo & Stitch 2: Stitch Has a Glitch is on a different timeline separate from that of Stitch! The Movie, Lilo & Stitch: The Series, and Leroy & Stitch. This differs from the “all-sequels-are-on-the-same-timeline” approach that Disney took with the franchise here in the United States.

Of course, this makes sense considering the continuity errors that were caused by Disneytoon’s disregard for the already-established sequel material when they produced their film. That said, having The Origin of Stitch short and Jumba’s Experiment Profiler game on the L&S2 DVD itself has not helped with the inconsistent timeline issues... 😕

Aside from that, I would really love to get my hands on this book, even if I can’t read Japanese nor even know its title.

[aesthetics-and-edits]

Hey it's the anon who requested the Gantu x Reuben aesthetic board. You said to request it again when the ask box was open, but I can wait if you need to finish other requests first ^^ ((also sorry for requesting even though it was closed, I guess it just slipped my mind ;w;))

*rolls in* hey so I saw your jumba x pleakley aesthetic and it's adorable omg. I'm gonna be requesting a kind of obscure pair- A Gantu and Reuben/Experiment 625 aesthetic board? It can be their friendship or more romantic, either works ;^^ and it'd include sandwiches and ray guns and something about being a (reluctant) team- thanks!! ^^ 💜

Hello anon! There’s no need to wait if you just sent in this request (although I do wish that you copied the original request but oh well) when you sent in this ask. I just posted it and I hope you like it (I didn’t list it as strictly platonic or romantic in the post so let me know if you want it specified).

Jumba, Pleakley, Felix, and Sample might have finally arrived in Walt Disney World

Remember my post last year with those linked Flickr photos about Angel, Reuben, and X-627 having possibly visited Walt Disney World? Now it looks like that this year, four more costumed character members of Lilo and Stitch’s ‘ohana may have also visited the Most Magical Place on Earth.

[REDACTED] over on SaveLiloAndStitch.org has found photos from yesterday (April 9, 2019) on Instagram of four L&S costumed characters that had yet to appear in the United States — Jumba, Pleakley, Felix, and Sample — posing for photos with Walt Disney World cast members. (As I mentioned before in the Angel, Reuben, and 627 post, Gantu and Hämsterviel actually made a one-time appearance in 2014 for a Disney Villains event. Sparky is the only remaining L&S costumed character who has still yet to make a U.S. appearance.)

However, based on the hashtags on these photos, as well as the plain office setting beyond the beach backdrop, it seems that these special meet-and-greets were unfortunately exclusively for Walt Disney World Cast Members, which also means that last year’s meet-and-greet with Angel, Reuben, and 627 was a similar ordeal. That sadly means that regular Disney guests in the U.S. still cannot meet-and-greet with the rest of Lilo and Stitch’s ‘ohana at this time.

Here are the links to the photos:

Angel, Reuben, and X-627 might have been at Walt Disney World in 2018

Now, it’s common knowledge that Lilo & Stitch’s popularity in the United States appears to be significantly lower compared to the rest of the world, especially when looking at the franchise’s presence in the American Disney Parks resorts. Not only is the sole, current-operating-status-in-limbo American Lilo & Stitch-related attraction one of the most despised Disney rides of all time, with certain groups of American Disney Parks fans still holding a grudge against Stitch to this very day for replacing a cult classic that wasn’t that much popular to begin with, but there’s not much promotion for Stitch today since Disney’s misguided and overly aggressive marketing for him in the 2000s.

Among the most notable things that American L&S never got were costumed characters of those other than the titular duo—well, save for a one-time appearance of Gantu and Hämsterviel at a 2014 Disney Villains event, but that’s a story for another day.

However, that might have changed earlier this year.

There is a woman on Flickr named Berlioz70 on there who uploaded some photos of her (I’m presuming) posing with Reuben, Angel, and Experiment 627. According to the metadata displayed on the site, these photos were taken on April 17, 2018. While these photos are unassuming at first glance—they’re just some pics of a woman wearing a pink dress, high heels, and a fruit hat posing with some relatively obscure costumed characters—a quick scroll down shows that she tagged them with “Walt Disney World”. Not only that, she is also wearing a Walt Disney World name tag (best seen in this one with her and Reuben). Based on some of the other tags in these pics, it appears that they were part of a Disney Junior event held around Easter. (Lilo & Stitch: The Series did air on Disney Junior at some point in the 2010s.)

In all, if these photos were indeed taken in Florida, then that means that these three experiments have finally made their American costumed character debuts! Now if only we could get the costumed versions of Jumba, Pleakley, Felix, Sparky, and Sample to come to the States, too. (Pleakley used to have a statue in Magic Kingdom’s Tomorrowland, but that got removed after SGE! entered seasonal operation.)

I cannot share Berlioz70’s photos directly on here because they all have “All Rights Reserved” licenses on them. You’ll have to visit her Flickr account if you want to take a look for yourself. Make sure you check the photostream underneath the photos to see them all; start from here or here, then click right or left from there to through them. Oh, and you might want to see them sooner than later, since Flickr will be deleting much of their free members’ photos and videos until they have only a thousand of them come 2019.
