there are full sentences of this video which have been completely lifted from wikipedia - with maybe only a word or two changed?

i checked a bunch of the edit histories too & i'm pretty sure (unless i've misread) that these were around long before the video

i mean it's almost exactly the same? just with a jackie chan bit in the middle...

i mean... compare this to a paragraph from the wikipedia article (screenshot in next post)

wikipedia: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cubix
tv tropes: tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwik...

also this isn't a call out - just an odd thing i noticed

yeah, this very much could just be coincidence - but literally EVERY single character description hits all the same points made in the wikipedia article.

like, it's very weird that this person would just so happen to describe every character in such similar ways

but also... if you're going to do that, at least cite where you've taken it from?

It's understandable to use those places for researching the background of the show - but his descriptions of the characters read as though he took the wikipedia entries and jumbled them around enough to seem like original thoughts.
