Ruining Moomin | Episode 15 | Unrestrained Midsummer Fun

[@cockycookie1]

Seriously, why does noone ever help Moominmamma with chores "We all want [Snufkin] but maybe [Snufkin] doesn't want us." Truer words have rarely been spoken 🙏

[@bellyrockzi9175]

My headcanon is that sniff is just a burnt out gifted kid who represses his memories by acting like an idiot

[@Minchboo]

I can’t believe this therapy is free.

[@theroaringroxyretiredproje9510]

I want you to know that unironically this series means the world to me and the dissections of famial trauma really hits home and helped me cope. thank you.

[@LilypadPanda]

2:23 - 2:26 Fun Fact: 90s Snork's English voice actor is Grandpa Pig in Peppa Pig, the guy on the big screen in Apple's '1984' commercial, and voiced several Daleks in Doctor Who back in the 60s!

[@Anna-ko1wg]

He voiced grandpa pig?! :0

[@udonnedtonoo]

Snork was a Dalek, he truly is a nerd lol

[@mrslinkydragon9910]

No way!

[@toilet7970]

*spits out water* what!? Oh my god!

[@morbidsearch]

29:07 "Oh God the camera's unsteady" "This cell is a nightmare" The prison cell or the animation cel? :)

[@mialarsson4972]

Me: Maybe I shouldn’t watch videos I’ve already watched a million times? Also me: Shut up, we’re getting to the really great part!

[@M4rlol]

I love how Moominpappa makes a Snufmin play

[@lillianadkins5378]

I always saw little my as AroAce and her Snufkin thing was like her just confusing deep feelings with romantic feelings since she hasn't ever felt it

[@hugenerd97]

16:48 Wow that was like a perfect imitation of how Snufkin said that in the original scene

[@hugenerd97]

30:30 for your information, I’ve been loving your heavy drama with interpersonal conflict

[@somebody754]

I'm really sorry for all the trouble you had to deal with but I'm ecstatic that the new episode is finally here! I hope you won't face as much trouble with the next one.

[@Aresofthevoid]

What happened?

[@animekitty6460]

"Whatcha knitting? " "Oh nuthin- i just keep knitting and knitting until i have a grotesquely long scarf." ..... I do not watch this just to be called out like that, thank you. Ò-Ó

[@sashawallace1916]

Yay more ruining moomins, who's ready for more emotionally damaged creatures crawling onwards to slowly get better. Also real hard for Moomin to function without Snufkin when everytime he leaves shit hits the fan. Edit: terrific episode. Great use of the play to lay out your plans and thoughts on the series, every episode has been amazing so far and while I can't wait to see more I hope you don't push yourself to make something that's more troublesome for you than fun and cathartic.

[@Quackervoltz]

Ruining Moomin is always gonna be my favorite abridged series since the Mentally Advanced Series.

[@rappingbeaniedog347]

It's nice to see a fellow fan, nobody ever seems to talk about it.

[@iamhuman5026]

As someone whose theatre put on a play of the complete works of William Shakespeare abridged, I can confirm that if you say macbeth (aka the Scottish play) in a theatre and don't perform it you will probably die

[@cat_with_a_witch_hat]

This is my comfort parody, not even joking

[@sarahluise5635]

I wanna say thank you for writing this series. I really appriciate it. This series about deeply flawed broken, messed up people who are still lovable and redeemable and worthy of respect is so deeply soothing. Like it's not portrayed simply for cheap conflict like other series, and that makes it feel cozy. These are deeply flawed, damaged individuals trying to heal and love, and I needed that. It's made it possible to forgive myself for being terribly fucked up. Seeing all my flaws portrayed in characters that are just meant to be loved and respected and cared for... That's not exactly something I get to see in a lot of stuff. I really appreciate this series. You've helped me forgive myself for being a terrified kid trying to cope with the world when I shouldn't have had to face it yet. Forgive myself for being a messed up adult that still struggles with so much of that weight. I really needed this series, and I wasn't going to get it from anyone else. So I want you to know that your doing good.

[@bradylewis1037]

I've always wanted to saw through the floor like a Looney Tunes character goddamn I laughed too hard at that

[@Machine_God]

"some jokes are just filler and honestly don't land." What do you mean, this was hilarious all through out! And don't worry, take all the time and approach you need with these. The main thing should be that you get enjoyment of making these and not have them being a chore or an obligation.

[@SimonSarka1]

3:47 - Your voice were quiet cute fitting for this Moomin scene

[@hugenerd97]

35:55 This was the funniest way to describe this situation

[@fizziestofpops]

moomin mama is slowly but surely becoming my top kin lol, so happy a new episode has come out!! love the series ^^

[@KeybladeZinogre]

Your hatred for Sniff gives me life

[@eveliinahallapelto4514]

This made my day, Ruining Moomin is the best thing ever❤️ Greetings from Finland 🇫🇮

[@YasminePomerantz]

Greetings from the America

[@sirbobthemarvelous]

the zoom in on snork after Moomintroll took a breath before submerging to get dishes made my brain go crazy trying to figure out what joke I'm missing

[@nobodyyouknow1065]

Just as The Prophecy foretold!

[@MrOrcshaman]

So we can all agree, sniff should be first sacrificed in a plane crash survival story?

[@stardust7635]

It’s amazing that you made the play they put on sound like ruining moomins out of context. And this show in general is amazing, every episode is a gift.

[@TindraSan]

I love how u seemed to be on the verge of breaking into laughter several times when voicing the police officer XD

[@emilierekdal5118]

I just couldn’t stop laughing throughout the whole video and then the play- oh the play, everything about it. Just. Wow. 😂

[@Rouseiryuu]

One whole arc. Impressive

[@Eepop_stuffs]

I WAS NOT EXPECTING ESCAPE FROM THE CITY OMFG😭

[@pietmeon]

I audibly GASPED when I heard HM:MM summer theme... there are more hm:mm fans out there....Incredible I am tearing up thank you

[@MisterMokuroh]

Holy smokes, this is 45 minutes long.

[@Mx.Phoenix]

Holy smokes, I didn't realise that until I read your comment!! 😂

[@LENNARD2ns]

Holy smokes, i didn’t realize either

[@PeriwinkleFairywinkle]

God I love how there is so many parts in this parody that cut to the original audio bc the og show really is just that unhinged 😭🤣

[@didik3327]

i’m a few weeks late but i’m sorry you didn't like this much :( tbh this series has genuinely been giving me so much joy these past days, ive been dealing with some bad depressive episodes and meltdowns and this always gives me a good giggle!! i’m a sucker for some meta jokes sfhfd but please save moominmamma

[@sirthatsabucket6637]

This was great and totally worth the wait, I love this series and I really respect you for the trouble you're going through trying to let us enjoy it. Really an awesome job Sad you didn't like this as much as others, but I can't say I share the sentiment because holy fuck I had to pause it several times cause I was laughing too much it's great, especially some of moominmamma's parts were peak comedy imo You shed light on a bad day of mine and I thank you wholeheartedly for that, looking forward to the next episode!

[@kiro8720]

Wtf, it's so good?! your version has sarcasm yet still mountains the whole Moomin troll vibe 😊

[@greer146]

I am unironically invested in this parody. The humor, the analysis of the characters, I'm starting to think it's even better than the original for some aspects. An absolute masterpiece. Also take your time and don't push yourself, we will be patiently waiting for the next episode

[@Heroball299]

Haha your Snork voice is spot on! He's my favourite character

[@daphnestinson8739]

Misty you are the best parody writer ever!

[@AngrySalmon]

The way I didn’t even notice how goddamn long this episode was before you said it yourself at the end speaks to its immaculate entertainment fr.

[@RuffDuddie]

Just binged the whole series. So happy youtube recommended it to me!! Keep up the good work!

[@charlesvattimo4674]

This comment shall serve as the place where I will input all of my significant thoughts as they come out in this- _44 minute video!?_ That’s impressive to say the least. I what varieties of problems disorder will be addressed today? I’m smelling some Snork disrespect… Not a fan, though being the 90s Snork does lessen my contempt a bit. Mamma being overworked is something that makes me sad, but it feels worse to me when she remains silent on that matter, like how some episodes in Moominvalley portray. That is a phenomenally hilarious way to introduce Emma, the salty b**ch who eats all your cheese. Snork was very cute in that short scene, reading and listening to his tunes. As did Snorkmaiden & Moomin sleeping together, though I wonder if that could’ve been used as a more significant conversation. It’s still early in this episode… The world becomes a slightly better place whenever Little My gets to swear. Oh Snorkmaiden, don’t you know that mental problems can never be solved through direct confrontation? There needs to at least be an Olympic sized series of hurdles and metaphorical correlations before big questions like that can be solved. You raise a good point; Muddler and Fuzzy are seemingly the only good parents, and comic relief characters have very peculiar psychologies when you study them seriously. I wonder if he’d have any problems at all if he wasn’t deserted in the zeroth book, Moomins & the Flood. The blatant sharing of issues ranging from poor self esteem to family issues through dialogue was fun and silly in the beginning, but I’m starting to get tired of that form of writing. I’m also apprehensive about criticizing what I recognize as your biggest, and possibly only, passion project. “I thought of nothing and I’m all out of ideas” Lovely quotes like this are refreshing and plentiful. I heard that one can be smitten for getting too meta. I think Moominpappa is treading too close to that line. I’ve come to wonder if Pappa is writing down more than what he should know in his script, but I guess being the father to the boy would make it easier to know his troubled relationship between the girl and the hat one. A great episode overall.

[@havenasmr5779]

Lol Lil my saying snuffkin is probably dead oml

[@acanimatics906]

I just found this series and I can't even describe how much I love it you're a comedic genius I love how you've turned my childhood show into a meta sitcom drama! It's a whole new show and I love it!!! I've watched a lot of abridged series over the years but this one takes the cake it's so geniunely unique! You even draw your own scenes and cover music for it! It's like nothing I've ever seen. Plus I sometimes even forget it's you who's voicing evryone with how well you do it. I also love how much thought you put into the writting instead of having the characters say a bunch of out of pocket things just to be crass you actually put effort to make all the lines make sense in context. It all just feels well put together and flows very well. I especially love Moominmama in this omg. And I love how you explore these new versions of these characters you've created! Both the talk Snufkin had with Mymble Jr and Moomin had with Too Ticky were evrything!!!!!!

[@flowerpastries9380]

THE FADE IN SCREAMING FROM THE HATTINFATTENERS HELP

[@glasco522]

just wanted to let you know that I just watched the entirety of this looking for a funny fan dub because I love those and I ended up enjoying this so much more and you made me literally stop watching to go outside and think of my own family and self worth issues, literally the work you do on these is amazing its so funny and yet makes you critically think at the same time in a similar way to how the actual books felt

[@cherryberrykomainu8699]

Well this was a delightful episode! Always love these episodes!

[@kitsunegirl9996]

MISTY SPARKLES I just need to comment on how amazing this episode is!! It's probably my favorite one so far! I know you said in the description that you don't think the jokes landed all too well, but I disagree! Also, I really loved how you used the play to air out your thoughts about the series itself. As an aspiring writer myself, I understand the tendency to question people's interest in your writing; the whole 'do people even care about what I'm doing?' aspect of it all. It's really relatable. But I want to assure you that people do care! I do, and glancing at the other comments, so do quite a few other people! (Also the whole expressing insecurities thing is REALLY relatable so I also enjoyed it for that reason hehe). I can't think of anything else to talk about but yeah, this episode was amazing and I love it, and I'm looking forward to future episodes! (But yeah, make them shorter if its easier for you, I want you to enjoy making them as much as I enjoy watching them)

[@sealavender0]

i just came home from an exhausting ap exam and the first thing that showed up on my recommended was a ruining moomin video. i love how much effort you put into your videos and they really made my day lol :D

[@poprocks6576]

I’ve been adoring these videos their so fun, seems like you’ve stopped or have taken a nice long break which good for you but these videos have been really nice to watch. All the characters have their own trauma that’s handled very well in my opinion. I love Snuffkins emotional detachment turned into something related to his childhood and being in a cult and something he has to eventually grow and change about. All the characters you’ve crafted from Moomin’s has been wonderful and I hope one day I get to see more of you

[@annielanier6042]

I LOVED this episode. I'm so sorry it caused you so much trouble but all us Ruining Moomin fans truly appreciate your efforts. I hope next episode is a lot easier for you. Also, do you have a Patreon or something I can donate to? I'd like to support your art and the series

[@SueMeriah]

Never watched 90's Moomins before so I just went "eh fuck it" and binged this instead. It IS that good- I haven't been this entertained in months! :D Thank you for uploading!!

[@lovely_fish3233]

I’m sorry for the trouble this has put you through. Want you to know that I love this and it makes my day. Love your videos. You should do the dragon episode some time. See some Snumin sometime soon.👁👁

[@PinkyDoggy]

Man this series is great. Really thank you so much for all the work you put in these episodes. I really wasn't expecting to be invested in these parody versions of the characters. Shall the Moomin fandom forever keep this masterpiece in their archives and hearts

[@andlien2175]

I have no idea how on earth you managed to make and episode this long but it's positively delightful

[@sparxandshine]

I waited so long. I always come here whenever I feel sad. This is actually my copying mechanism

[@Certifiedwasphater]

5:33 So that WASN'T a fever dream?

[@rossgoldsworth8037]

omg i love this episode of yours ruining moomin, I literally cried laughing and this nearly cure my sadness. thank you for putting up this long video !!

[@patrgud]

FINALLY I BEEN WAITING FOR U TO POST THANK UUUU😭

[@silver_lesAV]

OMG THANK YOU FOR THIS! Even the subtitles are gold 👌 ✨️

[@popcornbunches]

This series is a gift.

[@julias.7534]

This was really fun! I know the episode was long, but I appreciate it, and I appreciate this series as sort of a cohesive story as much as a memoir and reflection on yourself as well as your own opinions and process of writing a story. I really look forward to whatever you decide to do with this series and your work in general!

[@nmtltlz]

30:31 you doing okay misty?

[@remberedink]

Loved this episode. It took ages but it came out well!

[@LittleBulleteye]

These videos are my therapy! LOL the Dinosaurs reference…

[@nostalgicb_ocht582]

35:53 I agree with the crazy woman 😁

[@skeletolio]

That was fucking amazing think you for your hard work o7 I just hope that you know that whatever you'll do it will always be appreciated and we would be fine if you don't stop for any reason we would understand ^^ Like you are litteraly taking on your time and energy to make us free entertainments so the best we can do is being appreciative and not force you into a spiral of dread (please take care of yourself)

[@EveSnapdragon]

This is my favorite ever episode of moomin and I love this video!

[@conflictinmybrain2019]

This is beautiful i love this series. I am going watch and rewatch it a million times over and reccomend it to everyone i know who has ever shown even a mild interest in the moomins

[@shinybearevidra]

Well, this was amazing! Thanks for making it, even though you probably lost a third of your sanity during the process.

[@bluedragon3657]

Hey I just wanted to say that I love your 'ruining moomin' series and come back to it and binge it every other month or so. It is very entertaining and I really love your sence of humour!

[@Robin-of2jt]

what a monster of an episode !! so good fjdksla and i really hope you have an easier time posting next time

[@flowerpastries9380]

aw dont say this isnt good this is actually so funny i have been binging these and they are absolutely hilarious i lose my shit every couple of minutes

[@Harcaress]

I can appreciate the dedication.

[@danielladuck3323]

Based off the music used in previous episodes and humor of this series Im going to assume you watch Morel Orel

[@Charles_Anthony]

Thank you for putting these episodes all together. When I watched the show originally I felt like it should've been a movie and I still feel that way which is why I really enjoyed this episode of yours. Oh, and I subscribed too! :)

[@genevievesaxon5207]

Me: Oh, a new Ruining Moomins episode! Nice! I wonder what- You: Here's a 45 minute episode I made while dealing with the Official Moomins riding my ass about plagiarism. Me: Holy Fuck. P.S. Can't wait to actually have time to watch this, I'm sure it's amazing. Good luck with the legal shit too

[@datzgoat3132]

Ya know, I had this feeling to go check and see if you uploaded anything recently, and to my surprise, you uploaded a few hours ago. The only thing I wish for is for youtube to actually work and show me that you posted recently lmaoooo

[@aguywholikesstuff6602]

God I love this series

[@SandwichYum-23]

Wicked critique? Nice.

[@disast5260]

I love this so much

WHAT is The Snork's accent?

DISRESPECT YOUR SURROUNDINGS

[@SaltwaterTaffyz]

Can I just say the park keeper’s wife has the most earbleedingly annoying voice I’ve ever heard, I’m glad she wasn’t in Moominvalley because if I ever had to hear something like that again I would rip my ears off

[@akito7025]

Amazing ep!!

[@Crause88fin]

Okay, let's GO!

[@IndieFic]

I love it.

[@cosmic_seabunny]

LLEEETTSSS GGOOOO!!!

[@kathethegreat6597]

I don't mean to be a pusher but it's five months are you taking a break

[@kyanaramirez4054]

What are the requirements for this job👀

[@Viik_6]

Okay im wondering Is the play about Moominmama, Moominpapa and Joxter or is it about Moomin, Snufkin and Snorkmaiden? Im confused

[@manonpavllptdr]

Moomin, Snufkin and Snorkmaiden. They imply it when they say that he has problems with his sister having incestual feelings for him. That echoes to the episode where Little My suggests that she and Snufkin should start dating.

[@cockycookie1]

Why do you dislike Snork so much??

[@ruiningmoomin]

I don't, I love Snork! I make fun of everyone in this show, Snork isn't special.

[@cappelitolundino1895]

[@ClaireJamesLadybug]

I just recently found this series and thought it was over/unfinished and was totally content to living the rest of my life with the 14 blessed episodes, BUT THEN I SEE THIS IN MY RECOMMENDED Bless you for all your hardwork, and thank you!
