According to Macaque:

It's still amazing to me how every time he fought against MK or the others he could have finished the job so fast and easy, but he kept taunting them in hopes to buy himself and them enough time to fight back

8:13 This scene legit shocked me because i think that's the only time someone DRAGGED Macaque out of his own shadow.

The opening scene introducing Macaque is so well written. Because he is genuine. I do believe he planned to trick MK from the start but he was curious and friendly with greetings. He was testing the waters, seeing what MK would respond to and seeing that MK was dying for a new teacher he jumped at the plan. Even after his plan ultimately fails he is still soft and genuine with MK and treats him kinder than he would anyone else.

0:58 “I don’t really do it…maybe I should…but we’d be here all day so…” Him talking about his emotional baggage and insecurities and probably needing days worth of therapy for it…

4:59

Watching this made me realize something. That the sequence at 1:09 was a flashback for Macaque to when Wukong killed him. Bc in the original journey to the west Wukong killed Macaque by stabbing him in the eye (hence the x that is always shown on his right eye). and at 1:16 you can see that the animators made it so that MK was about to stab Macaque in that exact same spot, his right eye. Then he goes on about how similar he is to Wukong because both MK and Wukong went to go for a fatal attack in the exact same position. Which would mean that the LBD brought Macaque back from the dead in exchange for their deal. (Ik that this is probably a well known thing in the community but watching this made me come to this realization)

macaque sounds SO TERRIFIED when around LBD. like hes in AGONY both physically and mental,y

I knew about the series but this is the first time I hear the characters and I wasn't prepared for his VOICE ACTOR. WHAT THE FUCK.

It's what I love about Macaque. He can never quite commit to being a villain. His heart always seems to bleed through.

Rest in Peace Billy Kametz

I’d like to point out that in S2 and in S3 when he talked to MK and Tang he seemed to be looking out for them. He knew that MK had the potential to be better than Wukong, so he nurtured it, stopped MK from becoming selfish. And when he was talking to Tang, yes he had ulterior motives, but he was right about how Wukong acted. He didn’t want Tang to be abandoned by the others, but he didn’t realize than MK wouldn’t do that.

15:01 "Hah, bud?!" the sped up fake grin killed me..

20:09. OMG I that’s the outfit Vegeta wears when Future Trunks shows up for the first time! I knew this show would get some dragon ball references but I didn’t know it would have stuff like this

R.I.P. Billy, we miss you dearly.
