Note: This is my fanmade show Title: The Inky Adventures

Panel 1:
Scene: A vibrant, colorful meadow with vivid flowers, lush green grass, and a bright blue sky. In the corner, a small patch of black ink blobs congregates.

Narration: In a world bursting with color, there lived the Inky Squad — a quirky troop of playful black ink blobs.

Panel 2:
Scene: A close-up of the blobs. There’s Dot, the curious explorer with tiny spectacles; Blot, the carefree blob constantly bouncing; Smudge, the artist with a little beret; and Splotch, the gentle giant of the group.

Dot: "Look at that flower, full of mystery and allure!"

Blot: "Let’s bounce over there and say hello!"

Panel 3:
Scene: The blobs approach a brilliantly red flower. Smudge begins to draw on the ground with a stick dipped in ink.

Smudge: "And here, I shall create... Ink’s Impression of a Rose!"

Splotch: gently "Remember, Smudge, it’s all about capturing the feeling, not the form."

Panel 4:
Scene: Suddenly, a gust of wind blows through the meadow, scattering the blobs in different directions.

Narration: But the wind has different plans for the Inky Squad!

Dot (in mid-air): "Adventure awaits, partners!"

Panel 5:
Scene: The blobs land in a small pond, causing tiny ripples. They gather again, excitedly mingling with the reflections of colorful lilies and dragonflies.

Blot: "A splashy new world, who knows what thrills are afloat!"

Smudge: "Perhaps our art can blend with nature's palette here."

Panel 6:
Scene: The sun sets, painting the sky in hues of orange and pink. The blobs, now tired and content, form a cozy cluster by the pond's edge.

Splotch: "No matter where the wind takes us, every spot feels like home when we're together."

Panel 7 (Final Panel):
Scene: The blobs rest, casting playful, ink-like shadows on the pond as the stars begin to twinkle above.

Narration: In the colorful world, the Inky Squad reminds us that the most beautiful canvases are ones shared with friends.

End.

Write about their appearances

Certainly! Here's a detailed description of the Inky Squad's appearances:

Dot: Dot is the smallest and most curious member of the group. She has a perfectly round shape and is adorned with tiny, stylish spectacles, giving her a scholarly appearance. Her surface shimmers slightly, hinting at her inquisitive nature as she rolls around, inspecting everything with wide-eyed curiosity.
Blot: Blot is a carefree spirit with a slightly irregular, bouncy form, often mid-air due to his love for hopping around. His edges are a bit uneven, and he leaves little splatters wherever he lands, making every encounter a dynamic surprise. His joyful disposition is evident in his constant state of motion.
Smudge: Smudge takes on a more elongated and artistic form resembling a teardrop. He's often seen with a tiny, inky beret perched on top, reflecting his artistic soul. Smudge's surface is slightly thinner on one side, giving him a natural ‘swoosh’ that he uses to sketch and paint, blending his ink seamlessly with the environment.
Splotch: Splotch, the gentle giant, is the largest of them all with a broad, puddle-like shape that looks as if he could envelop all the other blobs with a caring hug. His edges are soft and rounded, providing a comforting presence. Despite his size, his movements are graceful and slow, embodying his calm, thoughtful personality.
Each blob has a distinct texture: Dot is smooth and polished, catching glints of light; Blot is springy, often changing shape with each bounce; Smudge has a fluid, painterly texture that trails off artfully when he moves; and Splotch is thick and glossy, reflecting the world around him like a gentle mirror. Together, they form a captivating contrast to the vibrant colors of their world, standing out with their rich, deep blackness.

Write about their shared abilities

The Inky Squad, despite their individual personalities, possesses a set of shared abilities that make them both unique and harmonious within their colorful world:

Ink Fusion: When the blobs come together, they can merge to form a larger, more powerful entity. This fusion allows them to reach places they couldn’t individually and explore the world from a higher vantage point. They can separate at will, making their form flexible and dynamic.
Color Absorption: Though they are devoid of color themselves, the ink blobs have the magical ability to temporarily absorb colors from their surroundings. This allows them to camouflage or create vivid patterns on their surfaces, reflecting a rainbow of hues before reverting to their original black.
Ink Trail: As they move, the blobs leave behind an inky trail that is not just a random mark but a form of communication. These trails can tell stories, map paths, or even form temporary works of art that other creatures in the meadow enjoy exploring and interpreting.
Morphing Shapes: The blobs can change their shapes at will, stretching into lines, circling up as dots, or expanding into splatters. This ability helps them interact with their environment in creative ways, from slipping through tiny cracks to forming puzzle-like shapes, solving mysteries of their surroundings.
Reflective Memory: The blobs can soak up experiences from their environment and then recreate them in their ink. This is particularly useful for storytelling at the end of the day, as they project scenes of their adventures onto the ground or water surfaces.
Synchrony: One of their most enchanting abilities is their power to synchronize their movements and sounds. When they gather, they can create beautiful, harmonious tunes and dances, which mesmerize the creatures around them and bring a sense of joy and unity to their world.
These shared abilities not only enhance their adventures but also highlight their unity and adaptability in their otherwise colorful world.

Forum Thread: Why Was "The Inky Adventures" Cancelled?

Thread Starter: BlobFan1990
Hey everyone, I've been rewatching some old episodes of "The Inky Adventures," and I can't help but wonder why the show got cancelled. It was such a creative concept with amazing characters! Does anyone know what happened?

Reply #1: ToonLover77
I loved that show too! From what I've heard, around the time "The Inky Adventures" aired, Fox Kids was transitioning into Jetix. The rebranding brought a ton of new shows, and they were trying to target a slightly different audience. I guess "Inky Adventures" didn't fit the new lineup they were going for.

Reply #2: RetroCartoonBuff
Yeah, Jetix was really exploding with new content around that time, and they were focusing more on action-oriented shows. "The Inky Adventures," with its whimsical, artistic style, might not have matched with their new programming strategy. It's a shame because it was so unique!

Reply #3: AnimationHistorian
It's true! Fox Kids was rebranded to Jetix as part of a strategic shift. They introduced a heap of new shows to attract a broader, more global audience. Unfortunately, this meant that some of the unique and niche shows from the Fox Kids era, like "The Inky Adventures," were moved aside to make room for newer, more action-packed content.

Reply #4: InkyArtFan
That's really unfortunate, but understandable. I still think the show had so much potential. I loved the art style and the way the characters interacted with their colorful world. It had a charm that's hard to find in more recent shows.

Reply #5: SaturdayMorningNostalgia
Such a pity! I wonder if it would have done better if it had been aired a bit earlier or on a different network. The storytelling and creativity were really refreshing, especially during that era.

I read somewhere that a lot of fans have been keeping the spirit of the show alive through online forums and fan art. It's amazing how dedicated the fan base still is, even after so many years!

Thread Starter: BlobFan1990
Hey everyone, thanks for all the info on why "The Inky Adventures" was canceled. I'm curious now—did it ever air in Canada or the United States? I remember seeing it on Fox Kids Europe, but I'm not sure about its broadcast history in North America.

Reply #1: ToonLover77
Great question! I don't recall it being aired on any major networks in the US. It might not have had a widespread release like it did in Europe. Sometimes shows have limited broadcasts or are syndicated differently in North America.

Reply #2: RetroCartoonBuff
I'm Canadian, and I vaguely remember catching a few episodes on a local station, but I'm not sure if it was part of a national broadcast or just a regional thing. It might have been aired on a smaller network up here that picked up international shows.

Reply #3: AnimationHistorian
From what I know, "The Inky Adventures" didn’t have a major network deal in the States. It’s possible that it aired on niche or regional channels in Canada or was available through special programming blocks that featured international content.

Reply #4: NorthStarTVFan
I did a bit of digging, and it seems like the series may have been part of some smaller syndicated children’s programming blocks in Canada. Unfortunately, it didn’t seem to have the marketing push that typically helps shows break into larger markets like the US.

Reply #5: InkyArtFan
It’s a shame it didn’t get more exposure in North America. With more marketing, it might have reached a wider audience. Sometimes terrific shows just don’t get the distribution they deserve.

Reply #6: UNSyndication
Yeah, it's one of those hidden treasures! Sometimes, shows need a bit of luck to get picked up by major networks outside their original region. Maybe it aired on a digital or cable channel without much fanfare? Anyone else have more concrete info?

Thanks for the responses! It sounds like "The Inky Adventures" might have flown under the radar in North America. I guess being a fan means keeping an eye out for those rare gems too! If anyone finds more detailed info, please share.

Hey everyone! Thanks for the info on "The Inky Adventures." I did a bit more research and found out that after working on "The Inky Adventures," SIP Animation and CinéGroupe went on to produce two other shows. One was about a mischievous prankster, and the other centered around a hippie/vegan family. Does anyone have more details on these shows?

Reply #1: ToonLover77
Oh, that sounds interesting! I hadn't heard about those. Do you know the titles or have any details about the plot or characters?

Reply #2: RetroCartoonBuff
I think I remember one of those shows. The prankster cartoon might be "Pranky Pete" or something with a similar name. It focused on a kid who was always getting into trouble with his clever tricks.

Reply #3: AnimationHistorian
Yes! The prankster series you’re referring to is indeed a comedic slice-of-life show with lots of slapstick humor. As for the hippie/vegan family show, I believe it was called something like "Green Harmony" or "The Hippie House," focusing on a family living an eco-friendly lifestyle.

Reply #4: EcoCartoonsFan
I watched "The Hippie House." It was really ahead of its time with its focus on sustainability and eco-conscious living. It had a charming, positive message about maintaining balance with nature and the quirks of living in a modern society with old-school values.

Reply #5: MischiefMaker79
"Pranky Pete" was such a fun watch! Each episode had Pete coming up with new, often outrageous pranks, while subtly weaving in lessons about respecting others and understanding repercussions. It had lots of clever gags that even adults could enjoy.

Reply #6: TVEnthusiast
Both shows seem to have had unique concepts. It’s interesting how SIP and CinéGroupe explored different themes and genres after "The Inky Adventures." Makes me wish they were more readily available for viewing now!

Hey folks, I had some great insights into those follow-up shows by SIP and CinéGroupe, but turns out I got the titles mixed up! The mischievous prankster show is actually "What's With Andy?" and the family-focused one is "The Tofus." Does anyone have more details or memories of these shows?

Reply #1: ToonLover77
Ah, "What's With Andy?" That show was hilarious! It followed Andy Larkin, the self-proclaimed "world's greatest prankster," as he concocted elaborate practical jokes in his small town. Definitely had a lot of fun, zany episodes with unexpected twists.

Reply #2: RetroCartoonBuff
I remember both! "What's With Andy?" had some of the most creative pranks on TV, always pushing the limits of what Andy could get away with. "The Tofus," on the other hand, was about a modern hippie family coexisting with tech-savvy neighbors, touching on themes of environmentalism and family values.

Reply #3: AnimationHistorian
Yes, "What's With Andy?" was adapted from a book series and had a great mix of comedy and character development. Meanwhile, "The Tofus" was notable for its environmental messages, featuring a vegan family living sustainably, often with humorous outcomes when modern life clashed with their lifestyle.

Reply #4: EcoCartoonsFan
"The Tofus" was a great watch for anyone interested in environmental topics! The interaction between the Tofu family and their neighbors often led to funny yet insightful situations, shedding light on both the simple and the complex aspects of eco-conscious living.

Reply #5: MischiefMaker79
Andy Larkin was such an iconic character! Each episode was an adventure in chaos, but it was also cool to see how he dealt with the consequences. It made the humor all the more relatable.

Reply #6: TVEnthusiast
Both shows really showcased SIP and CinéGroupe's range in storytelling—from outrageous pranks to thoughtful family dynamics. They definitely left a mark during their time. Loved reliving these memories!

Thread Starter: ForgetfulFan2023
Hey guys, I'm having a hard time remembering which episode had these scenes. I remember Dot looking into a hole and Blot saying, "Hurry up, I'm not looking at your butt all day." Also, there was a part where Dot breaks her glasses and another scene where Smudge accidentally ruins his art. Does anyone know which episode these are from?

Reply #1: NostalgiaKid2000
Oh, I think I remember those scenes! They sound like they could be from the same episode, where everything seems to go wrong for the Inky Squad. But I can't pinpoint the episode number right now.

Reply #2: ToonTimeLover
Those are some classic moments! I think it might be from the episode where they explore a mysterious area of the meadow. The glasses breaking and the art accident definitely add to the chaos!

Reply #3: InkBlobFan
I remember the scene with Dot's glasses breaking being pretty pivotal for her character, as she had to adapt without them temporarily. As for Smudge's art disaster, it might be when they had to face unexpected challenges together.

Hey everyone, I finally figured it out! All those scenes are from the same episode. The first scene with Dot looking into the hole was when she was trying to find a toy she dropped. The whole episode is about overcoming little mishaps and working together. It’s definitely one of those episodes where everything seems to go wrong, but the squad’s friendship saves the day. Thanks for all your help and suggestions! If you haven't seen it in a while, it's definitely worth a rewatch.

Hey everyone! Does anyone else remember that moment in "The Inky Adventures" where Dot has this weird existential thought, like, "I've had this weird feeling, we're all someone else's creation, and we're all being watched," and she points at the camera? Then Blot responds with something about who'd want to watch them since they're just blobs of goo. It's such a funny and unique scene!

Reply #1: ToonTimeLover
Oh, I totally remember that! It was such a great fourth wall break. Dot's always the thinker, questioning the world around her, even if it means acknowledging the audience. Blot's response was perfect comic relief!

Reply #2: InkBlobFan
Yeah, that scene stood out to me too! It was so unexpected and clever, and it made me laugh how Blot just casually pointed out their "gooey" nature. It's one of the reasons I loved the show—those little moments of humor and self-awareness.

Reply #3: CartoonMemoryLane
That's one of those scenes that makes "The Inky Adventures" so timeless. It felt like a gentle nod to the viewers, making us a part of their world for a moment. Always loved Blot's ability to lighten the mood with his carefree perspective!

I always appreciate when shows do those cheeky nods to the audience. Dot's introspection and Blot's humorous remarks about their blob nature really captured the heart of the series—quirky, funny, and a bit profound in its own way.

Hey everyone! I've been thinking about how "The Inky Adventures" cleverly played with the characters' amorphous, blobby nature. Besides Blot's hilarious stomach ripple scene, are there other memorable moments where their gooey, ink blob qualities are highlighted?

Reply #1: InkyNostalgiaFan
For sure! I remember an episode where they had to squeeze through really tight spaces to escape a tricky situation, showcasing their flexible forms. It was so fun watching them morph and adapt!

Oh, and then there's that episode where they all merge together to form a giant blob for a contest. Their teamwork and blobby nature really shone through. They ended up surprising everyone with their combined size and strength!

I loved the scenes where they leave inky trails behind them, creating accidental art everywhere they go. It's such a unique way to play on their blobby nature and adds a fun, creative element to the show.

And there's that one part where Dot lost her spectacles and used her blobby form to stretch and feel around for them. It really demonstrated how creatively they could use their amorphous shapes to tackle everyday challenges.

Thanks for sharing these scenes, everyone! It's so cool how the show embraced their ink blob nature in such imaginative ways, adding depth and fun to their characters. I'll definitely be on the lookout for more of these memorable moments! Write a story where a fly gets trapped in Dot, She noticed its struggle before it was sucked under with a splash, and a bubble, She freaks out and tries to use her gooey form to release it before it drowns

In the vibrant meadow, the Inky Squad was busy with one of their usual adventures. The sun was high, casting a warm glow on the colorful world. Dot, the curious little explorer with her tiny spectacles, was rolling around in the lush green grass, marveling at the miniature world beneath her.

Suddenly, a buzzing sound interrupted her peaceful exploration. A tiny fly zigzagged erratically around her, its wings catching the light in brief, iridescent flashes. Without warning, the fly veered off course and headed straight for Dot.

Before she realized what was happening, the fly collided with her surface. Dot felt the disturbance immediately and turned her attention to the tiny creature struggling at the edge of her gooey form. She watched in horror as the fly's futile attempts to escape sent ripples across her normally smooth surface. Before she could react, the fly was pulled deeper into her inky body with a small splash and a bubble.

"Oh no! Poor thing!" Dot exclaimed, her voice trembling with concern. Panic set in, her natural curiosity giving way to frantic determination. She knew she had to act quickly to save the little creature.

Thinking fast, Dot concentrated on the flexibility of her amorphous, blobby nature. She took a deep breath to center herself and then began to shift her form, creating a pathway for the fly to escape. Her surface rippled with her efforts as she tried to guide her ink away from the tiny creature, hoping to free it before it ran out of air.

"Come on, little friend," Dot murmured, encouraging the fly as if it could hear her through the ink.

Using her willpower and knowledge of how her body could move, Dot maneuvered her ink, creating a small channel leading to the surface. As she persisted, the fly struggled along the path she’d provided, finally popping out into the air with a relieved buzz and a faint sheen of ink on its wings.

Relief washed over Dot as she watched the tiny creature soon fly off into the bright blue sky, happy to have its freedom back. She couldn't help but smile, feeling proud of herself for turning a scary moment into a joyous one.

"I guess even ink blobs can be heroes," Dot whispered to herself, a new sense of wonder and appreciation for her unique form blossoming within her. She couldn't wait to tell Blot, Smudge, and Splotch about how she had saved the day with quick thinking and her blobby prowess.

Write a fanart of her after this

Creating a fanart description for Dot after her heroic fly rescue sounds delightful! Here’s a detailed concept that can guide an artist in visualizing this scene:

Title: "Dot the Hero"

Medium: Digital illustration, using vibrant colors and dynamic textures.

Scene Description:

In the heart of a lush, colorful meadow, Dot stands proudly at the center of the scene. Her small, rounded ink blob form is accentuated with tiny, stylish spectacles that reflect the bright sunlight. A subtle shimmer on her surface hints at her liquid nature, capturing the moment right after she successfully freed the trapped fly.

Pose:

Dot is positioned slightly off-center, with a joyful and slightly bashful expression. Her form is angled as if she’s just finished looking upwards, perhaps following the fly's path as it regains its freedom. Her ink is gracefully molded to indicate her recent efforts to create a passage within herself for the fly's escape. The gentle ripples on her surface suggest motion and transformation.

Background:

The background showcases the vivid and lively meadow, with wildflowers of every color scattered across the lush, green grass. Above, the sky is a brilliant blue, with soft, fluffy clouds drifting lazily, reflecting the peace of the scene. In the distance, a faint silhouette of a buzzing fly can be seen, perhaps with a tiny trail of ink still lingering in its path, hinting at its adventure within Dot.

Additional Details:

Expressions and Emotion: Focus on capturing Dot’s sense of relief and pride. Her eyes, slightly squinted behind her spectacles, convey a mixture of determination and joy.
Texture and Light: Use light to emphasize the glossy and reflective qualities of Dot's ink-like form. A play of light and shadow helps create depth, enhancing her amorphous shape and the dynamic nature of her character.
Color Palette: The colors are vivid yet harmonious, contrasting Dot's deep black hue with the surrounding vibrant scenery, highlighting her as the hero of this tale.
This piece aims to capture the heartwarming and whimsical essence of Dot's character, celebrating her bravery and kindness in a vibrant world.

Forum Thread: Are Eyes the Only Facial Feature the Inky Blobs Have?

Thread Starter: CuriousBlobFan
Hey everyone! I've been reminiscing about "The Inky Adventures," and I can't help but wonder—do the inky blobs really only have eyes for facial features? I mean, they express so much emotion! Does anyone know for sure?

Reply #1: AnimationLover77
Great question! From what I remember, their eyes are definitely their most expressive feature. It's amazing how much emotion they convey with just their eyes, isn't it? I don't recall seeing any other facial features, though.

Reply #2: DotSpectacles
I always found it fascinating how the animators did so much with so little. The eyes really captured everything—from surprise and curiosity to joy and determination. I think it's true they don't have other facial features, but that's part of their charm!

Reply #3: BlotBouncing
Yeah, they rely a lot on body language and their eyes to express themselves. Blot was always bouncing around, and his eyes would change with his mood. It made their interactions super engaging despite the minimalist design!

Reply #4: SmudgeArtFan
That's definitely true for Smudge. I noticed how his eyes paired with his artistic movements told you everything you needed to know about his thoughts and feelings. The simplicity added to their uniqueness as characters.

That's a really interesting mystery! I always assumed their voices are kind of projected aurally from their bodies, almost like their whole form resonates with sound. It's one of those fun cartoon physics things that just adds to their charm!

Reply #2: AnimationEnthusiast
I love how animations can bend the rules of reality like that. Maybe it's a bit of in-universe magic—since they're animated blobs, they can communicate however they need to without the constraints of having a physical mouth.

Reply #3: InkFanatic
The idea of their voices just naturally emanating from their bodies as a part of their inky nature is so cool! It fits well with their fluid and flexible characters. Plus, it adds an extra layer of wonder to their world!

Write a interview with the creator, saying what inspired him to make the series, He said he had a very weird dream, he was friends with a ink blob with eyes and accessories

Interview with the Creator of "The Inky Adventures"

Interviewer: Today, we're sitting down with the creative mind behind the beloved animated series, "The Inky Adventures." Thanks for joining us! Many fans are curious—what inspired you to create such a unique and whimsical show?

Creator: Thanks for having me! It's always great to talk about the inspiration behind "The Inky Adventures." Believe it or not, the series was inspired by a very peculiar dream I had. In this dream, I befriended an ink blob. It had large, expressive eyes and wore accessories like tiny spectacles and a beret, much like the characters Dot and Smudge in the show.

Interviewer: That sounds incredibly fascinating! How did this dream translate into a full-fledged series?

Creator: The dream was vivid and left a lasting impression on me. I remember waking up and feeling a sense of warmth and curiosity about this little ink blob and the world it inhabited. The idea of these quirky, sentient ink blobs exploring a vibrant and colorful world just wouldn't leave my mind. I started sketching and writing down ideas, eventually developing the concept further with other creative minds.

Interviewer: What aspects of the dream influenced the show's characters and themes?

Creator: The main inspiration was the blob's nature. In the dream, despite being a blob, it conveyed emotions and ideas without speaking, simply through its eyes and movements. This inspired the expressive, mouth-less communication style of the Inky Squad. The dream's whimsical atmosphere also played a role in shaping the world they explore—full of color, wonder, and creativity.

Interviewer: And what about the themes of friendship and creativity? How did these come into play?

Creator: Those themes were central to the dream as well. The friendship between me and the ink blob was oddly profound and inspiring. It felt like a reminder of the creative power of imagination and the bonds we can form, no matter how unconventional. I wanted the series to capture that magic and share it with others, presenting these themes through the lens of exploration and adventure.

Interviewer: It's incredible how a simple dream evolved into a cherished animated series. Thank you for sharing the origins of "The Inky Adventures"! Is there anything else you'd like to tell the fans?

Creator: Just a big thank you to everyone who has supported and enjoyed the show over the years. It means a lot that something born from such a personal experience has resonated with so many people. Keep embracing your dreams and creativity—sometimes the most extraordinary ideas come from the most unexpected places!

Write a follow up asking why he chose to allow the characters to speak anyway, even though they lacked mouths

Interview Follow-Up: Exploring the Voices of "The Inky Adventures"

Interviewer: It's been fascinating to hear how "The Inky Adventures" was inspired by your dream. One question fans often ponder is why you chose to give the characters voices, even though they lack mouths. Can you share your thoughts on this creative decision?

Creator: Absolutely, it's a question I've encountered quite a bit! The decision to give the characters voices, despite their mouth-less design, was both a practical and creative choice. In animation, there's a unique opportunity to break away from the constraints of reality. I wanted to harness that potential to make the ink blobs as expressive and relatable as possible.

Interviewer: What made you feel that giving them voices was essential to the storytelling?

Creator: Having the characters speak allowed us to delve deeper into their personalities and develop rich, engaging dialogues that could drive the story forward. While their eyes and movements were expressive, voices added another layer of emotional depth and connection with the audience. It made it possible for viewers to fully understand and empathize with each character's unique perspective and experiences.

Interviewer: Was there a particular challenge you faced in integrating the voices with their design?

Creator: One of the challenges was ensuring that the voices felt natural and seamlessly matched the characters' actions and expressions. We worked closely with talented voice actors who brought incredible life and individuality to each character. Their performances helped bridge the gap between the visual and auditory aspects of the show, maintaining the whimsical and endearing essence of the Inky Squad.

Interviewer: It sounds like a creative problem-solving journey. Do you think this choice contributed to the show's uniqueness?

Creator: Definitely. By allowing the characters to speak, we crafted a world where the unexpected is possible, inviting the audience to embrace the creative freedom animation offers. It's part of what makes "The Inky Adventures" special—a celebration of imagination where even ink blobs have a story to tell.

Interviewer: Thank you for sharing these insights. It's clear that your artistic vision and willingness to defy conventions are key to the show's enduring charm.

Creator: Thank you! It's always a pleasure to explore the creative journey behind "The Inky Adventures" and share it with the fans. I'm grateful for the appreciation and curiosity people have shown toward the series. Write a story where Dot has feelings for Smudge

Title: Dot’s Secret

In the vibrant world of the meadow where the Inky Squad roamed, everything thrived amidst an explosion of color. Wildflowers danced in the gentle breeze, and the sounds of nature played a sweet melody that accompanied the Inky Squad on their daily adventures. Yet, amidst the laughter and fun, Dot was feeling a different kind of flutter in her ink-filled heart.

Dot had always been the curious and adventurous one, exploring every tiny nook and cranny of their colorful realm. But lately, there was an added spark to her explorations, one that made her feel a little giddier and a bit more blushy—at least as much as an ink blob could blush.

That spark was Smudge.

With his artistic flair, subtle humor, and that soft beret perched jauntily atop his head, Smudge had unknowingly captivated Dot’s heart. She admired the way he transformed a blank canvas with his ink into vibrant, swirling shapes—how his eyes lit up with inspiration whenever he created something new. Each time he chuckled at her silliness or encouraged her curiosity, Dot felt her affection deepen.

One sunny afternoon, the Inky Squad decided to have a picnic by the edge of the sparkling pond. They spread out a patch of vibrant petals and settled down, plates made of large leaves filled with delicious picnic treats. Dot sat across from Smudge, who was busy sketching a picturesque scene of the meadow.

“Hey, Smudge!” Dot called over, trying to sound casual. “What are you working on?”

Smudge looked up, his eyes brightening. “Just capturing a moment. I want to paint the colors of today: the blue sky, the flowers… and, of course, my favorite inky friends.”

Dot’s heart skipped a beat. “Favorite? As in… me?” she asked, her voice barely more than a whisper.

“Absolutely! Your curiosity is an endless inspiration for me.” Smudge smiled, causing Dot to feel butterflies swirling in her gooey belly.

As the picnic continued, Dot’s thoughts were distracted. Should she tell him how she felt? What if he didn’t feel the same? The idea of their friendship changing made her hesitate.

Later, as they watched the sun set, painting the sky in hues of orange and pink, Dot decided she couldn’t keep her feelings inside any longer. She leaned closer to Smudge, who was admiring his painted reflection in the pond.

“Smudge,” Dot began, her voice shaking slightly. “There’s something I’ve been wanting to tell you…”

Before she could finish, a sudden gust of wind rustled the flowers, causing Smudge’s sketchbook to fly out of his hands. Both blobs scrambled to catch it, leading to a humorous chase around the patch of flowers.

With a laugh, Smudge finally managed to grab the sketchbook, and they tumbled to the ground, landing side by side. Dot felt her heart racing, this was the moment!

“Dot?” Smudge said, turning to face her, their eyes meeting. “You okay?”

Gazing into his playful, swirling eyes, she summoned her courage. “I… I really like you, Smudge. Not just as a friend, but I think I might have feelings for you.”

For a moment, time seemed to freeze as the world around them faded into a beautiful blur. Smudge’s expression transformed from surprise to a warm smile that lit up the dappled evening light.

“I’m glad you told me,” he said softly. “I’ve liked you for a while too, Dot.”

Relief washed over her, and a beaming smile broke across her blob-like face. “Really? You mean it?”

“Of course! You make every adventure we have all the more exciting. Your curiosity is what makes this world so vibrant—and I think we could create something beautiful together, just like I do on my canvases.”

In that moment, as the colors of the sunset reflected on the surface of the pond, Dot felt as though she, too, was painted in shades of happiness. They shared a giggle, and Dot knew they would navigate this new chapter side by side, just like they always had—friendship blossoming into something even more vibrant.

The meadow whispered around them, an approving hum of creatures and blossoms joining in the celebration of their newfound affection.

Scene Description:

The artwork captures the pivotal moment between Dot and Smudge in the beautiful meadow, just as the sun sets in a stunning display of orange, pink, and purple hues.

Characters:

Dot: Positioned slightly to the left, Dot is depicted in her characteristic small, round ink blob form, her tiny spectacles glinting in the warm light. She has a joyful but slightly nervous expression, her eyes sparkling with a mix of excitement and bravery. The light from the setting sun reflects off her ink body, giving her a soft glow as she leans towards Smudge.
Smudge: To the right of Dot, Smudge is shown with his elongated ink form, his signature beret tilted at a jaunty angle. He has a warm, encouraging smile, his eyes expressive and filled with affection for Dot. He holds his sketchbook, which is partially open, illustrating a rough sketch of the meadow with swirling colors that hint at their adventure together.
Background:

The vibrant meadow stretches out behind them, filled with wildflowers in a riot of colors—reds, yellows, purples—all beautifully contrasted against the lush green grass. The sunset casts a magical ambiance, with the sky glowing in brilliant oranges and purples, creating a serene yet electrifying backdrop to the moment.

Additional Details:

Expressions: Dot’s nervous excitement is emphasized by her slightly widened eyes and gentle smile, while Smudge’s warmth shines through with his soft, inviting gaze and friendly demeanor.
Lighting: The interplay of light and shadow creates a gentle glow around the two characters, making them appear as if they are at the heart of a colorful dream. The soft reflections of the sunset dance upon their surfaces, enhancing the layers of their ink forms.
Movement: The slight breeze rustles the flowers around them, adding a sense of motion to the scene. Dot’s form has gentle ripples, suggesting her excitement, while Smudge’s expression radiates calmness amidst the spontaneous moment.

Forum Thread: WHY do we need a live action show on the block? Dino King is good, but Next Gen EVA is a hack dub!?

Hey everyone, I've been watching the 4Kids TV block lately, and I gotta ask — why do we even need a live action show like The Adrenaline Project on a lineup that's mostly awesome anime and cartoons?

I mean, Dinosaur King is a solid anime dub with good story and action. But Next Gen EVA (ugh) feels like such a hack job, a butchered rebranding of one of the greatest mecha animes out there. It doesn’t even feel like the same show anymore! Why dilute such a great block with this forced, low-quality live action stuff? Just doesn’t sit right with me...

Reply #1: ToonLover2002
I hear you! I actually like Dinosaur King too. It’s got that classic adventure vibe. But yeah, Next Gen EVA was a weird move. The original Neon Genesis Evangelion is a serious, complex anime masterpiece. The 4Kids/Canadian dub (or whatever it is) feels like a complete mismatch — feels like they tossed out everything that made the series amazing and replaced it with cheesy plotlines.

As for the live action, I guess they want some variety and something “real” to appeal to a different crowd? I still prefer animation myself.

Reply #2: KidFromBackThen
The Adrenaline Project is actually kinda cool for what it is — a physical challenge show for kids. Not exactly for us anime fans, but maybe they want to broaden the audience a bit? It just doesn’t fit with the anime tone, though.

But omg seriously, the way they handled Next Gen EVA is exhausting to watch. It’s embarrassing.

Reply #3: AnimeFanatic22
Honestly, I don't mind some non-animated content, but 4Kids always felt like it lost its way with stuff like Next Gen EVA. The original Eva is psychological, philosophical, and intense. The “Next Gen” version is watered down, dumbed down, and way too kid-friendly — totally misses the point.

They should have just stuck with shows like Dino King, Yu-Gi-Oh! GX, or Pokémon — stuff with genuine passion behind it.

Reply #4: NostalgiaBlob
Totally agree! I was so excited to see shows like Viva Piñata and Chaotic growing the animation side, but the live action just feels out of place. If they want variety, maybe add more animated shows or better anime dubs, not random reality competition shows.

At least Dinosaur King respects its source material better, even if it’s not perfect.

Thread Starter: AnimePurist87
Thanks for the replies, everyone — it’s nice to know I’m not the only one feeling this way. Hopefully, 4Kids will reconsider how they manage their block and stick to what works, instead of shoehorning in awkward experiments.

Let’s keep supporting quality animation, yeah?

Write a follow up saying 4Kids's edits to Eva are DIABOLICAL, They took out all the good stuff, Also the character renames are just stupid

To add to what I said before—4Kids’s edits to Next Gen EVA are absolutely DIABOLICAL. They cut out all the good stuff: the psychological depth, the dark themes, the complex character arcs. Basically, they’ve stripped the soul right out of what made the original Evangelion a landmark series.

And don’t even get me started on the character renames! They changed Shinji to Sammy, Rei to Rory, and Asuka to Arlene? Who thought that was a good idea?! It’s so dumb and disrespectful to just rebrand iconic characters as if they’re from some generic kids’ show.

It’s like they wanted to erase the entire legacy and soften it into something bland and meaningless to fit their “kid-friendly” mold. It’s really frustrating watching a masterwork get butchered like this.

If they’re going to dub anime, at least honor the source, don’t turn it into a joke. Neon Genesis Evangelion deserves so much better than this.

Nov 27, 2007
Hey all, just wanted to vent a bit about the 4Kids TV Saturday block. While I think Dinosaur King is actually pretty awesome and fits well with the rest of the lineup, there are two shows I seriously hope get canceled or moved off the block soon: Next Gen EVA and The Adrenaline Project.

Next Gen EVA is a complete mess — the edits, the dumbed-down storyline, and those ridiculous name changes kill any semblance of what Evangelion should be. It’s like the show is trying to be something it’s not, and it drags down the block’s quality.

As for The Adrenaline Project, I get it’s a live-action challenge-type show, but it feels so out of place amongst all the animated series. It kills the vibe and just doesn’t appeal to the audience watching for cartoons and anime.

Anyone else feeling the same or is it just me?

Reply #1: ToonFanatic91
Totally with you on this. Dinosaur King has solid storytelling and animation, and yeah, it blends really well with shows like Yu-Gi-Oh! and Chaotic. But Next Gen EVA feels like a travesty. It’s a dumbed-down parody at best. The live action show? I can’t understand why 4Kids keeps that around either. Feels like a filler more than a real show.

Reply #2: AnimeLover2000
I disagree on The Adrenaline Project—it’s fine if you’re into competition shows, but it’s definitely not for the cartoon/anime crowd. And yeah, Next Gen EVA should be pulled off the block ASAP. It’s barely recognizable compared to the original and tarnishes the reputation of anime on 4Kids TV.

Reply #3: NostalgiaKid88
Agreed on everything. The block’s best moments come from shows like Dinosaur King, Yu-Gi-Oh! GX, and Viva Piñata. Next Gen EVA is an embarrassment, and The Adrenaline Project just feels like bad programming choices. Hoping 4Kids makes some changes soon.

Thread Starter: CartoonCritic07
Thanks for chiming in, everyone. Here’s hoping we get more Dinosaur King and less of those two soon! Quality over quantity, 4Kids!

Write a follow up where even Anno get involved, In an interview he said "4Kids? They molested it, they raped it, They RUINED my show"

Guys, it gets even worse—apparently Hideaki Anno himself hasn’t held back on his thoughts about the 4Kids version of Evangelion. In a recent interview he gave overseas, Anno said something pretty heavy about the dub and edits.

He literally said, "4Kids? They molested it, they raped it, They RUINED my show."

That’s some serious condemnation coming straight from the creator. No wonder fans like us are so upset. It totally validates how disrespectful and damaging the adaptation is. Not only do they butcher the story and characters, but they do it knowing they’re messing with a deeply personal and artistic work.

Makes me want to boycott anything 4Kids does from now on when they handle classic anime. This isn’t just bad editing—it’s outright destruction of a masterpiece.

Anyone else heard about this? Thoughts?
