"Who wants to serve in heaven, when you can rule in hell." One of the most badass lines I've ever heard coming out of two porcelain cups

[@sunnythehedgehog5026]

I Agree with that statement.

[@ComicalRealm]

Fun fact: The Moldenhauer Brothers (creators of Cuphead) originally had an idea for a video game reminiscent of Cuphead in the early 2000s; however they didn't have the resources to produce the game back then, and so they waited until the 2010s when the technology necessary for the game was finally at their disposal.

probably my favorite part about this episode was that whatever successfully entered into the other world without dying, became cartoon-like in appearance. but when they come back, they change into more realistic, and sometimes horrifying creatures. Truly spectacular work guys, probably my favorite secret history yet!

[@pepperonipizzaproductions6179]

This comment makes sense cause In that one scene when Cuphead says “when you can rule, in hell” you can see the devil’s teeth and nose change in appearance.

[@_bbb444]

maybe that's why all the other subjects died they couldn't handle the sudden style change

[@pepperonipizzaproductions6179]

Actually, according to Mugman in this video he mentioned about the devil “he let us in” this could mean that they got transported to Inkwell Hell. The devil killed the other subjects. But let the two who became Cuphead and Mugman through.

[@mrbananamonkeyboy74]

[@Hitoshuratdn]

Honestly not as good as previous secret history.

[@zonebro6205]

The reason they chose the bad ending is because they had no reason to choose the good one. In the game they're actually friends with some of the bosses and they have that Elder kettle to make them do the right thing. In this video, they're just soldiers who have little to no connection with these guys.

[@commetsftw]

Interesting point of view. Maybe Mugman was a little bit friendly and hesitant at first with the whole thing, but Cuphead ruined whatever little innocence was left in him.

[@jackislegitterrified3689]

@@commetsftw Truly a possibility. Especially since Mugman actually feels remorse for the scientists they killed. Are they really bad for killing the soldiers and that lead scientists? I imagine the devil probably made a deal to have revenge on their bosses. Cuphead probably corrupted the only bit of goodness Mugman might have had.

[@snoly2211]

I think the devil could've seen if the soldiers were moral enough to reject his offer, and let in those two soldiers cause he knew they'd help him at the end

I love how being in “our” reality makes them more gruesome and deadly. It’s both reflective on how our uptightness is more of a weakness, and can often be a warped perception of the true nature of things. Like framing and/or pissing off a gentle giant.

This was so good! Not only does it fit with the original Bad End of the game, but this was a unique way to bring a dark twist to an otherwise shockingly dark game when you think about it. Another banger Secret Histories video, Mashed! My only question is if there’s a good end alternative to this story where Cuphead and Mugman don’t join the Devil

you should get kevin afghani to voice Mario in all of your animations now that he actually voices him in the games

[@firewolf950tfwgaming7]

Not possible, as the new official voice of Mario, he’s only allowed to voice Mario in Nintendo allowed projects which isn’t to saying that Mashed couldn’t get him to voice Mario, Nintendo would have to give the ok, but given the sort of content Mashed is and the company that Nintendo is, it’ll never happen. And if you think that’s just Nintendo being a buzzkill, that’s fairly common in the VA industry where VAs aren’t allowed to voice stuff relating to their characters outside that’s not official.

[@SomePkmnlovingdude]

I got some ideas for future Secret History of... episodes: Secret History of Shantae: Genies are evil monsters who were sealed away, but they gave birth to half-genies. Shantae vows to continue the reign of terror her genie sisters have tried to do and even brainwashes Sky, Bolo and Rottytops to help her. Risky Boots is also a heroic swashbuckler instead of a pirate who is starting a revolution to stop Shantae. Secret History of Shovel Knight: After losing Shield Knight, Shovel Knight went insane and began to murder lots of people, including innocents, because he can no longer tell right from wrong. The Order of No Quarter are heroes summoned by the heroic Enchantress to stop him. Secret History of Rayman: The Gale of Dreams is actually a place where all creatures live in harmony, and Rayman is actually a racist bigot who hates ugly monsters rather then a goofy fun-loving hero. Rayman sees all ugly monsters as evil and vows to 'save' the Gale of Dreams from them, going around killing innocent monsters to stop they're so-called evil from harming innocents.
