Squilliam’s lost!? NOOOOOOOOOO

[@Intriga1220]

I thought squilliam was still alive

[@CosmicSponge2004]

Missing since 2010

[@poweroffriendship2.0]

My favorite Squilliam moment is when he got humbled to the point of getting a cardiac arrest over Squidward's band performance in _Band Geeks._ Squidward is finally living in dream -- a sweet victory he longed for.

[@zeepsterd]

I have a theory that Squilliam is actually dead and the episode band geeks takes place at the end of the Squilliam’s timeline.

[@t.tnetwork8654]

I saw Fanny Cottontail on the thumbnail and I got really excited because I don’t see her being mentioned A lot, so thank you for bringing her up

[@rorycarrigan]

Petition for Disney to bring back Fanny Cottontail. Make it happen!

[@CosmicSponge2004]

With all the references and returns current SpongeBob likes to do (especially to Seasons 2&3), I'm suprised Squilliam's been gone for the ENTIRE HD ERA

[@PoutyBats]

"suck eggs in high school" Nope that's it, I'm sold. Alwaya sensed Squidward was fruity but this settles it for me. God bless

[@spyishere3054]

@@PoutyBats honestly, I wholeheartedly disagree. The term “Sucking eggs” is slag for “someone is being told something they already know” aka “giving advice on something that the other person is well knowledgeable of already” which means squilliam is just insulting him, just because it has the word “suck” and “head” in it, does not automatically mean that “action” Also, I think the “oh no, he’s hot thing!” Was people just misinterpreting what he actually meant, the context in the scene was that squidward was trying to imagine him in his underwear because he was nervous and intimidated, and wanted to let off some pressure by having a laugh, but the problem was sqilliam is too “attractive” to make fun of apparently, so he felt a lack of confidence and got intimidated. It’s important to understand that Squidward is not saying that because he’s attracted to him, but because he’s envious that he is better than him in looks. And I feel it’s necessary to mention that you can acknowledge someone’s attractive without being attracted to them. And the robe thing was literally either an oversight or maybe Squidward had enough money to at least purchase one that just so happened to look like his enemies. Once again, Squidward is envious of his counterpart, so would obviously make sense that he would want to somewhat replicate what he wears. but honestly, that’s probably an oversight. (honestly, the same thing with the painting of that Squidward mermaid in squilliam’s house, they just forgot to add the unibrow. Or as we’ve seen with squidville, it could be another unrelated squid that just happened to look like squidward. I mean, they do look alike a lot of them so it would make sense.) The pinching cheek thing I will admit is a little weird, but I just think squilliam isn’t aware how weird that looks and just does it because he knows it bothers Squidward. As for going to the enemies show and stuff, once again Squidward is envious so obviously he’s gonna try and go over there when he gets a chance like that because he’s jealous of him. If you ask me, I think a lot of this is just a stretch to make a joke that I honestly don’t think is that funny to be honest.

[@toonycryptid]

Nice to see Fanny Cottontail being mention here! I would like to add that Fanny was recently referenced in a game called Disney Speedstorm as a bonus skillset and got some obscure merch so Fanny still around!

[@CosmicSponge2004]

Universal actually used Fanny in one of their weird mid-1930's Oswald cartoons, only she was re-imagined as.. his sister

[@CappyzEdit]

@@CosmicSponge2004 I hate when that happens… it makes the relationship of 2 characters feel weird.

[@JaxCoolKartunes]

[@benisunoriginal]

Seeing Fanny in the thumbnail and learning about a Megaman lost character made me so happy today.

[@Toontastic_Juju]

I’m very happy that the series is back again! It’s been a long while since we got a new installment and getting to learn about more lost characters. And I would love to suggest for future videos, if you can discuss two of Pluto’s love interests, Fifi the Peke and Dinah the Dachshund? They’re both very interesting characters as they both reflect Pluto’s character and personality throughout the golden ages of the old Disney cartoons.

[@zeepsterd]

More to come!

[@Toontastic_Juju]

Yay! Can’t wait!

[@TCDWZACK]

I have a request. It’s a old looney tunes character from 1931. His name was foxy.(he was killed off because Walt Disney Called water brothers, and told them he looked too much like Mickey Mouse.)

[@HortonJ1929]

Fun fact: Fanny wasn’t completely forgotten. She would appear in one of the Universal Oswald cartoons, "The Candy House," from 1934, where she was redesigned and made Oswald’s sister.

I think it’d be funny if Squilliam returned as a homeless person and what led to his destitute life is left up to the viewers imagination

[@ringkunmori]

I'm willing to bet Squilliam will return to the show considering modern spongebob likes to call back to classic era characters like Bubble Bass

[@slimcognito383]

the toenail scene in House Fancy show's that not only did his toenail come of but so did the nerve ending on his toe.

[@WitchHunterSiegfried]

Touhou’s entire PC-98 cast is a good example of this, with Mima as the most well known of them.

[@Espurrd]

It's not really a lost character but Yellow from the Pokémon manga (adventures) hasn't appeared in the manga itself since the Fire Red and Leaf Green arc I'm pretty sure

[@Ethanbeme]

Great video good sir! Also very happy to see Squilliam in this one, Can't wait to see the next video!

[@Sailor-Khione]

Maybe klonoa but I'm not sure if he counts. The whole franchise named after him is basically forgotten about because when it released, it didn't get much trailers/commercials about the games.

[@RandomCrapIUpload]

One note: fanny actually first appeared in Poor Papa, the first EVER oswald cartoon, granted she only appears for a couple of seconds, and she isn’t even animated. Her first “major” appearance was in Oh Teacher

[@ArtisticStrings]

Squilliam’s lost now?? BUT I used to love him OMG he was so fun!!

[@cinnamonsakura1418]

FANNY!! I LOVE HER AND I WISH SHE WAS MORE UTILIZED NOWADAYS LIKE ORTENSIA IS USED EVERY ONCE IN A WHILE!

[@FuchsiaNeko]

I'm almost surprised that Squilliam hasn't been brought back, considering how much modern Spongebob likes bringing back old characters. We get Bubble Bass of all characters but not Squilliam? We should write a well thought-out and organized list of complaints. Also that clip of Alex Bale's Squidward and Squilliam ex's theory is one of my favorite clips ever

[@ShockwaveFPSStudios]

I’m just baffled that Squilliam hasn’t been in SpongeBob since Season 7 SEASON 7!

[@Montague29]

Lol, he appeared in season 15 as a cameo

[@GreatgunYu]

They probably couldn’t figure out what to do with Squiliam. The whole character is him being Squidward rival from band class and nothing else to him. I mean the SpongeBob writers can make another band related episode featuring Squiliam, like band Geeks.

[@ShockwaveFPSStudios]

Yeah, and they’ll probably screw it up like with the other sequel episodes to older episodes.

[@I_IS_A_SPOON]

I think the bubble bowl is more supposed to be the LA coliseum rather than the Inglewood forum. The forum was made for basketball so it's not particularly big, seating around 17,000 people but the coliseum is meant for college football and seats 77,000, which is also a host to college bowl games.

[@samsundertail6564]

There is a forgotten Mario character... Brown Yoshi. He first appeared in Super Mario World 2:Yoshi's Island and (supposedly)made his last appearance in Yoshi Touch & Go in 2005. Unfortunately,he and Purple Yoshi ended up being scrapped from Yoshi's Story,but made a cameo in the opening cutscene.

[@seanalailima5929]

Also, it is common for fish to be reused a ton of time in SpongeBob. These are what incidentals are. While the orange fish may look like Tom, both use the 4th incidental. Same with Fred and the fish in Party Pooper Pants who is revealed to have gone to Kindergarten with SB. They use the 1st incidental model.

You should do may from the mainline ash era of the Pokémon anime series as she was forgotten due to her Japanese voice not being able to return as she suffered a disease which caused stained to the throat, to make matters worse, there exist no possibly cure for it as she was been having it since 2012. Along with other forgotten characters such as krystalak and obsidius from godzilla unleashed, Aimi Yoshida, grant Alexander, Adrian luca from X-man Destiny game, and finally Honey woman from megaman that was planned for mega man 9 only to be replaced with Hornet man.

​@zeepsterd also if I was to suggest any character for next lost character video it would be honey the cat from sonic the fighters she was a cut character from sonic the fighters hidden in the code but was found and put it in the rerelease for xbox 360, ps3 and pc. But she eventually came back in the archie comics as a semi major character in the same arc that also forgotten characters scratch and grounder and now makes cameos in official sonic art. It's an interesting history.

I'm gonna suggest once again Mr. Wood from goosebumps, the villain from one of the most famous goosebumps books, the night of the living dummy, but he's been getting fucked over since pretty much the begining, he is not in the cover of his own book, the more famous character slappy is in the cover even thought slappy doesn't do anything in the story, he is just reveal to also be alive as a twist in the end, however they chose him for the cover and from there slappy became the main villain in every other book. when they made the tv show, they skipped the first book and went straight to the second one, so slappy gets to be on the tv show but not mr wood. The publisher wanted the series to have a mascot, originally it was curly the skeleton, which is also kind of a forgotten character, but slappy ended becoming the mascot of the series, he got his own book series and became the main villain in the movies, meanwhile Mr. Wood never showed up in a book again, he has cameos and appearances in some video games, trading cards and some of the alternatives covers that first book got in other countries, the korean one has him in it and pretty cool. There was a comic adaptation of the first the night of the living dummy book and there they show Mr. Wood’s spirit leave his body after being destroyed and entering slappy’s body implying that they were the same entity the whole time, although stuff like the mobile game contradict this. So Mr. Wood has being completely overshadowed by a minor character in his own book, and the character ended up becoming the most iconic monster in the whole franchise, the best Mr. Wood gets is cameos and thr only adaptation of his book retcons him into being slappy the whole time.
