\n\n\nAbout us<\/span>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

We\u2019re a tiny crew that takes cartoons a little too seriously<\/span>.<\/h1>\n\n\n\n

Toonpost started in a dorm room with too many VHS tapes and not enough sleep. Five years and 400+ essays later, we\u2019re still arguing about whether Gumball is post-modern or just exhausted.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/section>\n\n\n\n

\n\u2192 our mission<\/span>\n\n\n\n

Treat cartoons with the respect they\u2019d never ask for.<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

We believe animation is where the weirdest ideas survive. Toonpost exists to write about them loudly, link the good episodes, interview the people who made them, and remind everyone that “for kids” is usually code for “actually really ambitious.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

No ads. No sponsored takes. Just six weirdos and a subscribers\u2019 list that keeps the lights on.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\nPitch us a story<\/span>\n<\/a>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

\n\u2192 what we actually believe<\/span>\n\n\n\n

Four things we won\u2019t shut up about<\/h2>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
\n
\n
<\/div>\n\n\n\n
\n

Earnest about the silly stuff<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

We don\u2019t pretend to be above slapstick. If a character falls on a banana peel, we\u2019re applauding it.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

\n
<\/div>\n\n\n\n
\n

Opinions, loudly<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Middle-of-the-road takes are for people who don\u2019t love things. We\u2019ll argue for the underrated Tiny Toons spinoff every time.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

\n
<\/div>\n\n\n\n
\n

No ad deals<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Nothing we cover is paid for. Our “featured” section is just the stuff we actually watched twice.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

\n
<\/div>\n\n\n\n
\n

Small team, big yelling<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Six editors, three continents, one shared Slack channel called #scooby-gate.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/section>\n\n\n\n

Mira posts a 2,000-word review of Infinity Train on her personal blog. Six friends read it.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

We break 10k monthly readers. First interview with a Nickelodeon animator. Everyone cries.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
