The way he said "el mañana". It's sweet to hear as an spanish speaking person.

[@jam5176]

Now here’s me and my idiot forgetful brain rewriting it from memory- 2D worked in a shop. Murdoc crashed through it and hurt 2D’s left eye. Murdoc had to do 10,000 hours of community work and 20 hours taking care of 2D. He crashed again and 2D flew through the window and damaged his other eye. Murdoc invited him into his band because he’s badass now and he’s the drummer. Murdoc also invites Russel as a guitarist but he says no. Murdoc doesn’t understand what no means and kidnaps him, taking him to a tall funky looking house atop a tall funky mountain. Here he makes Russel become his main guitarist. But when they walk through a door at some point in time this little Japanese kid called Noodle is stood there looking even badasser than 2D and becomes their main guitarist and Russel becomes the Drummer. *this is where I started getting lost* Something happens and they fly across the world and what not and some people split up and something else happens and eventually Noodle leaves to go understand their past life. They release an album because they were pissed everything was about 2D/Murdoc (I can’t remember which) and they become an assassin or what not. 2D and Murdoc somehow split up. Russel dives into the ocean. Noodle almost drowns. 2D saves them. Murdoc reunites everyone in cool looking ocean army but they can’t find Russel. Russel is actually now huge because he inhale garbage and is now absolutely fukin ginormous. Anywho shark whale thing tries eating Murdoc’s window but Russel comes out of nowhere and throws it at an enemy helicopter. Then, he opens his mouth to reveal Noodle. Murdoc disappears to Hawaii joking he’s in London and 2D and Russel find him and they all go on a road trip and then they make out idk-

[@dimondtrilogy66games73]

Around plastic beach Russel got kidnapped and sent to North Korea because he became so big, then he escaped, hope this helps

gorrillaz split up because of yes. what-?

[@ginger6readspaceman]

Long story short within a long story short: After their first album they went on a tour of North America. After a Gorillaz movie was said to be in production and the group stayed in a rented house in Hollywood with what was originally going to be 8 months. However during so, the OG Kong Studios was shut down due to strange paranormal activity there, which, as expected, kinda made things more chaotic for the group back in Hollywood. Which of course was not helped by the disagreements in production amongst producers, directors, and themselves, which eventually resulted in the movie being terminated. And, what I can only imagine being a byproduct of all this chaos coming to a head, Murdoc tries to kill 2D, and naturally after that, the band decides to take a break from each other

[@Pandagirlfan1234]

If too understandable: first murdoc was a lonely pickle and decided to make a band. He randomly seen a commercial about someone being the best drummer in the world and his name was Russel, murdoc got his location and kidnapped him, first Russel was mad but then he was chill, so murdoc was a drunk person so he couldn’t drive well….so he crashed in a window from a music store and !BOOM! Lands right into Stewart pots (2d) left eyeball, so 7 seconds later, they crashed again and 2d came zooming out of the window and lost his right eyeball so they made a band but they needed a base guitarist si they made a commercial abt needing one. Noodle the Japanese girl who doesn’t know her family mailed herself to England in a fedex box that took like 70 mins prob, btw she was 10, oh yea 2d’s girlfriend once came to visit and murdoc and Paula did the bomaya. Russel caught 2d filled with tears since 2d seen what happened so he told Russel, Russel officially broke murdocs nose💀 but his nose healed since 2015 so he is Alr, oh and also 2d once got ran over by a monster truck now ima let this KZbinr finish part 2
