VRV announced today that they have launched a new series called Epithet Erased from YouTube creator JelloApocalypse. VRV describes the series as follows:
In the world of Sweet Jazz City a lucky few are born with powers attached to their very souls known as “Epithets”. An Epithet stems from a single word attached to a users soul that can gran’t them any kind of power. Words like “Fire”, “Coupon”… or “Soup”. A magical artifact known as the “Arsene Amulet” is rumored to be able to steal an epithet away from its user, and they say it’s hidden somewhere in the Sweet Jazz Museum. Thieves burst down the doors in the middle of the night! Inscribed warriors do battle in the dark of the abandoned exhibits! Dinosaur bones come toppling to the floor! And a little girl named Molly is trapped in the middle of it all. Will her epithet, “Dumb” be enough to save her? Or will her epithet be… erased?
Epithet Erased is an ensemble comedy/adventure about farcical crimes and the characters committing them! The show’s visuals and storytelling take inspiration from everything to video games, anime, visual novels, crime thrillers, and even westerns to create a truly unique animated experience.
Brendan Blaber (JelloApocalypse) created a unique style for this series by mixing traditional animation and portrait puppeteering similarly seen in video game cutscenes. Brendan Blaber is a voice actor and internet content creator best known for his work on his YouTube channel “JelloApocalypse”, where his “So This is Basically” series parodies different cartoons, games, and anime. He’s done a little of everything, and he’s extremely excited (and a little overwhelmed!) to be producing his own show on VRV! It’s been extremely fun to try to combine all his favorite mediums into one singular thing!
