Last two weeks of my Ugly Americans contract coming up, it’s the big push to the finish. Spent too long working down at the studio or thinking about boys or whatever it is that I do, so you get another last-minute update this week.
I suppose to get it you’ll need to be familiar with these.
that thing is terrifying
Whats terrifying is the massive bowl of bean dip that Jared has.
I’m going to have to agree with Astard here. More so, I’m betting not only does Jared put away that much normally, but I think he’s gonna keep eating after a moment. Nomnom, Jared!
Hah. That reminds me of John Dies at the End.
“‘Oh, and I had one hamburger that started mooing when I ate it.’ He glanced at me. ‘You remember that?’
It wasn’t mooing, John. It was screaming. [And you] kept eating that screaming hamburger, down to the last bite.”
Poor Jared. He looks so confused and out of place in a manly man’s world.
His slight stubble is his only defining feature of MAN.
I don’t know. Every so often you see a glimpse of Epic Chin. Blue has/had Epic Chin, and he is/was very manly. Sometimes it’s just something you have to grow into.
(Spoilers: Jared and the Commander are basically Dippy-Blue and Daggett. Commander’s personality comes from wanting to draw comics about Daggett without having the story Daggett lives in ready to go. Jared is basically the dopey version of Blue I use for things that real canon Blue’s emotional baggage would bog down.)
:D ! ! !
FUCK YEAR
Thank you for exposing this to me
What a strange reference.
I know the thing you referenced and I still didn’t get it until I clicked the link
Funny comic though.
I can see the Ugly American’s art style here. Very nice.
I’ve been working on the show for nearly a year, if you didn’t notice any influence on the way I draw before, it probably didn’t just appear thins week ;P
Just when I’d reforgotten. Rocky IV thing was interesting if true though.
It’s what Stallone said in an interview, at least. He thought the fighting looked too choreographed and told Dolph to just try his best to punch him out in the first thirty seconds. He ended up in intensive care and the filming had to be postponed for nine days while he recovered.
Gotta love the chest hairs on MANLESHIBA.
That’s chest hair? I thought that was its CHIN!
Mameshiba looks like bean-dogs, so Manlyshiba(why didn’t you spell it like that, Coela?) is a buff bean-dog.
Because I spelled it like “mameshiba” with the second “m” substituted. I don’t know why it matters that much…
Guess I just think it sounds a bit more fun D:
Tsk, it hardly matters, either gets the point across! Also, I second Juan V.
The Punchline is Nachismo *badumtss*
…Then Jared needs to comb, he’s getting facial hair in the bean dip…that or someone else did. Either way…eew.
It’s so manly it spontaneously sprouted that chest hair from the bean dip surrounding him.
Wasn’t that originally a Mr. T joke? I read in one of those Chuck Norris vs. Mr. T books a joke similar to it. It went “During the filming of Rocky IV Mr. T once punched Sylvester Stallone so hard he spoke clearly for a week.”
It’s not a joke, Dolph Lundgren actually put Sylvester Stallone in Intensive care while they were making the movie. His heart swelled up from the impact and he nearly died.
You might even appreciate the fact that Dolph Lundgren is a lot closer to being a scientist than Bill Nye the Science Guy is.
Seriously.
It’s easy to check out how many college degrees & what levels they are for both of them with just a minute on your search engine. The kicker is that Bill Nye isn’t even a scientist…He’s an engineer. Dolph has at least a fistfull (pun intended) of degrees in sciences both applied sciences & humanitarian, all of them of higher level than Bill’s *one* degree.
…That thing looks like a Pokemon mixed with the Shakespeare-quoting dinner from Calvin and Hobbes pumped on testosterone. Which is actually kind of awesome.
What’s that Mameshiba? Kill John Lennon?
One might have to push this into memeland…
Michael Schwartz( Oceanverse.com) said i should thank my favorite web comic creators for all their hard work.So thanks for your awesome comic.
I appreciate it!
I love panel 1.
Agreed, i’ve never seen a better depiction of someone at bliss.
WTF!!!!!!? O.O o.O
Ah Jared, your facial expressions are priceless.
Also Manleshiba would scare the fuck out of me.
XD i fuckin love Mameshiba. That thing cock blocks like a pro and it’s so cute.
But what i love most is the face jared makes in the first panel. ♥
This has great potential to be a spinoff. Like, the best spinoff. Better than Frasier.
Eat it and forget it said anything.
That face in the first panel – that is how you should look when you eat snacks! XD *mimics Jared*
That is an awesome amount of dip. Nice to see the ratio is correct, too — I go through three tubs of dig per bag of dippin’ snacks, and Jared’s bag of unbranded triangular snacks looks big enough to handle four tubs.
Jared looks so happy in the first panel.
Oh Manleshiba, you just want to help people be more manly.
Squid how did you know I was thinking up a whole bunch of silly Mameshiba parodies. Get out of my head.
wow jared looks slightly more masculine in panel 6
OMG YES
not enough mameshiba fans out there
this totally made my morning, thank you XD
WAT.
wat….
Wat.
where?
There!
wat
Nani? *shot*
que.
As i turned on my computer something inside me sang “It’s MONDAAAAAAYYYYY!!!!” And for the first time ever i came straight here XD
Interesting comic… though i totally pulle dhte face from pannel 4 XD
Oh yes, the Mameshiba and their random, disconcerting facts!
I had no idea you worked on Ugly Americans.
You have just gained 70 awesome points.
*coelasquid leveld up*
I’ve worked on character designs, boards, layout posing, and animation.
Jared looks much more manly when he is disgusted.
Ne shitteru~?
There is something terribly wrong whit that frijol-dip man, its missing a manly Pancho Villa’s style mustache
I too had no idea you worked on that show. That’s pretty awesome though.
That’s… disconcerting. And hilarious. But mostly disconcerting. I think it’s the chest hair.
WAT.
-snerk- >> God I love Mameshiba.
Remember the people who voiced the Aries gets a bucket of blood dumped on him at the prom strip? I feel that has to happen for Jared & Bean Dip ^~^
Ne, shiteru? An episode of Pokemon was banned in America because James got a breast implants.
Mainichi hitotsu, momeji shiki lalala~
GET THE HELL OUT OF MY FOOD
Seriously, Colesquid, I have only discovered you recently, and ohmygawd LOLZ.
CONSTANTLY. keep it up.
Wat?
…. :[ I dun geddit.
I’m not sure how to explain it beyond “a parody of the thing I linked to”. Little bean dogs that dispense trivia.
Ah. I geddit nao.
And I’ll quit intentionally misspelling stuff while I’m at it.
This is by far the manliest thing ever to have been inspired by anything Japanese.
Manleshiba should become a recurring character.
Panel 6! Jared went all Clint Eastwood on that Manleshiba.
That was creepy. Both the comic and the link.
It’s japanese it’s supposed to be creepy. Loved it though :D (not sure what that says about me..) Anyway. Read through all of the comics that are up as of now and looking back I can’t think of any particular one that was bad really. Love this theme :) You have another follower Squid, thanks for brightening up my mondays! ;)
This comic makes me unbelievable happy.
Of all the things to reference, this was the least expected. I applaud you.
I cant stop watching them!
If this is indeed true then all those idiots who got but hurt over Dolph Lundgren almost killing Jet Li in the Expendables need to shut up. I don’t give two shits if Jet Li is a 5 time International Kung-Fu Champion; He’s a tiny little Chink who’d get his shit seriously jacked if he and Dolph really went at it.
Dude, seriously. What’s with the racial slurs? That was completely unnecessary, even if you don’t like him.
Yeah, uh, I know a lot of people are coming here from 4chan, but I’d appreciate it if people checked that kind of attitude at the door. We can talk about what an awesome genius chemist karate black-belt drummer linguist boxer Elite Swedish Marine boxer weightlifter Dolph Lundgren is without getting racist about it.
You said boxer twice.
That is all.
{[_]
Sure, he gets it twice for being a movie boxer and a for real boxer. Let’s say that.
Good point. I can’t say I can physically argue with that statement.
Seriously racism? Not manly. Especially given how awesome the Expendables was, no racism allowed.
I love you so much for making a mame shiba joke.
Wait….you worked on Ugly Americans?
Am still working on, at least for two more weeks.
Is it just me, or does that bag of chips look kinda like Commander Badass’s jacket?
Bwahaha! I’m so glad I got this reference! now I feel special w<
I saw this on youtube lol. WHY AM I SO ADDICTED TO THEM. Cute little beans. xD
I’m afraid that all I could think of, looking at that bowl of bean dip, is “Now we know why jared lives alone” and “With the proper collection device, J-man could power his own methane-powered car”….
Just found this. You rock. I love manly men doing manly things.
Ok so I just watched all the mameshiba videos… damn you coelasquid.
I think I’m obsessed. I swear to god, i check this site at least 5 times a day, and read the comic over each time. Its been going on for the past few comics and i don’t know why. I think i’m subconsciously thinking that either you might surprise attack post a new comic or that visiting over and over will somehow get you to release more comic crack faster.
Do i need some sort of intervention thing?
Psh, interventions are for quitters.
I’d seen pictures of Mameshiba around, but not the commercials until I saw the link.
Finally a Japanese commercial that doesn’t even pretend to be anything but adorably freaky.
In otherwards, Jared pretty much sums up my reaction.
ahahah and i thought that came frrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrmkemon ahahahha nice one~
Oh yes. OH GOD YES.
I love it, considering I saw these videos not long ago, heh. Those things are just disturbing and weird but too adorable at the same time. Excellent job with the bean dip version XD
MANLESHIBAAAAA! Nee, shiteruu?
*dies laughing*
I bet Manleshiba has a deep, raspy voice, unlike his not-so-macho cousins.
I actually have a better time imagining it with a cute widdle high-pitched little voice.
That is ~*TRU MANLENESS*~
Ugly americans rule.
….There’s a hair in his manleshiba…
~Ma-i-ni-chi hitotsu, Mame to shiki la la la~
I have no idea what you just said.
It’s the little tune they play at the end of the mameshiba clip Coelasquid linked to.
As an ugly american, I am confused, outraged, and furthermore, enraged by this comic.
Mostly confused. Which just serves to feed the rage.
You… You get the picture.
Why do you all insist on calling it the Mameshiba when it clearly is called Manleshiba.. Yer all jsut a big bnuch of dyslextics..
Best Comic yet.
Oh dude, it’s even got chest hair and everything! Gross.
Uh okay I’m now officially grossed out of my mind and staying away from nachos and bean dip for the next oh I don’t know five or so years. Great comic!
you worked on Ugly Americans?I had no clue you did until just now.
considering the theme song for Mameshiba and the fact that this is manly, would I be correct in assuming that such a theme song would be of metal music for Manleshiba? Like, when I saw the big MANLESHIBA, I read it in a death metal growl.
Manleshiba started as a joke with some friends and I because I kept crossing the mameshibe song they play while he recites his trivia with the softer parts of the Conan the Barbarian theme.
You work on Ugly Americans? That makes you even more awesome! It makes me proud to be a woman when there are women like you out there. Now we just need to get rid of the Paris Hiltons and creepy metrosexual men and the world’ll be a better place.
I used to work on it, at the moment I’m in Hollywood working on a new show, it’s kind of a vagabond industry.
Just found this comic and was going through the older ones when I saw why I really liked it since you worked on Ugly Americans. It was great show… sucked it didn’t get picked up for at least another season. Anyways keep up your great work and Can’t wait to see what the new show is.
It did get picked up for another season, it’s starting up again next month. I just got a new job because a different studio got the animation contract.
So…awesome <3
I think someone left the dip out too long. You’re supposed to refridgerate that stuff after you open it, man!
Say wha?
Anyone else read the Manleshiba’s words in a deep badass black-man’s voice?
I remember this ad from the middle of the blue exorcist.
Man, I love, really LOVE your comics. I just discovered them and started reading from the oldest one, but I feel like they speak the absolut truth itself. Keep up the good work! Greetings from Catalonia!
Haha! I actually get it! A first I thought that it was a condescension but then I saw the mameshiba tag!
Wow. Outside of a small group of international students, I have never met anyone who knew about mameshiba without me explaining it to them. I love this comic.
And Ugly Americans is pretty great, btw. “I want to shove it in your three-hole.” Is pretty much my go-to line these days.
Day.Made.
