The Blobulonian Empire | Enter the Gungeon Lore

In this video, I attempt to break down everything we know about the warlike Blobulonian species, from their blobby biology, horrific crimes of war on a galactic scale, political history, and their great empire's sudden collapse.
All music used is from the Enter the Gungeon Soundtrack.

Thanks as well to those who suggested memes, but didn't get them in.

[@madhavraghu]

11:45 From the king blobs' names, we can understand their motives. I noticed that King Visc Osbro can also be written and King Viscous Bro. This makes sense because blobulons are viscous and he is a brother. King Gel Osbro can be rewritten as King Jealous Bro. This shows that his jealousy was the reason for the fighting.

[@Kasmodamous]

Remember those two blobulonian ornaments with arms, one of them being frozen in the wallmonger. I have a theory that since when the Blobulord dies he looses a lot of mass and turns into a small blob with arms, and that the blobulonian empires collapse forced them to the Gungeon. those two blobs on the shelf and in the wall might be Visc Osbro and Gel Osbro.

[@glitchyYouTube]

Imagine you chilling one day and suddenly you see thousands of slimey red creatures flying through the sky shooting bullets everywhere That’d be fuxking terrifying even though you throw a pea at them and they die

[@bobfish1290]

I think by when it says absorbing stars that the blobs themselves dont eat the stars instead they use the stars as fuel and completely training them. This thus takes time, so a better general is able to keep a territory for longer enough for this to happen

[@s3aM0th17]

its possible the hegemony of man weakened the blobuloian empire so much that another war finished them off

[@BrigsbyDowers]

Hey Nevernamed, not to be nitpicky...bbbuuutttt in the text at 4:03 you say Bloodulons the only Blobuloniens with teeth...even though the Boss card for the BlobuLord shows that in his stupidly funny (or should I say GUNny) grin, he has teeth. This isn’t massively LORE changing or anything, it’s just a incy-weency nitpick...(also keep up the good work with your streams & videos, you’re doing awesomely!)

[@Nevernamed]

Ah darn, I missed that detail. Thanks for pointing it out though.

[@sagecolvard9644]

I actually think this could change the lore a little bit. One has to ask how he got big enough to absorb a star the first time, and the only time we see blobulonians growing, they are always bloodbulons. So, if only bloodbulons grow and have teeth, and the Blobulord is a giant blobulonian with teeth, he may have been a bloodbulon before he absorbed his first star and became a General. This would make sense as the bloodbulons are long-time veterans who have seen enough combat that the blood soaking through their membrane has changed their physiology.

[@TheCactusTheif]

Am I crazy or is King Visc Osbro III just a pun on Viscous Bro, given they are slimes

[@nothoughtsheadempty3097]

I'm unsure the blobulord absorbs actual stars, I think they mean military stars but in the gungeon universe anything can happen so maybe he actually foes absorb stars

[@kukuruzayevhenii8764]

maybe by "the number of stars they have absorbed" it is meant "the number of star systems they have conquered"? yknow, like a metaphor of sorts great video as usual :D

ITS MOVIE NIGHT BOYSSSSSS

[@Lithobraker]

I just had this thought, and I wanted to drop it on one of your videos- but I couldn't figure out which one to put it on, so I guess it's going here... You know the colossal bullet that transformed what I presume was just called "The Dungeon" into the Gungeon? Given the way Gungeon lore usually goes, this implies something huge: What gun fired that bullet? Is it still out there? Has it fired before- and if so, has it created other similarly gun-themed locations across the galaxy? Will it be fired again?

[@unknownentityenthusiast6765]

The Lich created the gungeon iirc, and he could probably summon such a massive gun with a high level spell and wield it in his second form
