"REDDSZONE" - EDDSWORLD x RED ZONE【レッドゾーン】(The 2010 Remake)
18Possibly one of my biggest "calling card" videos from back in the day, this one still has a special place in my heart all these years later. Back when I was flushing out Red Zones left and right, this was one of the last ones I made after catching wind of Edd making Zanta Claws 3 for the holiday season. So as soon as that dropped I got to work finishing this for Christmas Day, 2010, 3 days after Edd uploaded ZC3. You could also tell that the "Tom" scream by Zanta ended up being my new favorite sample over the "Noo!" from Zanta Claws 2 LOL.
This was a big overhaul from the old version that I released in 2009, which made me connect with Edd and I would continue to make a lot of Eddsworld videos since there was so much untapped potential at the time. If there is one thing I will regret, it's not archiving all the comments and interactions I had with Edd after these releases, especially this one and the Rainbow Tylenol remake. They were probably one of those things that spurred me on at the time, because I had such an admiration for Edd, so getting a friendship and recognition from him was probably one of my fondest memories from the early 2010s, in a time where I was an anxious teenager looking to "prove" myself for everyone.
I still miss you a lot Edd, we lost you way too soon. Every now and again it hits me like a truck how sudden it all came to a close, and how young me had so much frustration trying to cope with the loss. You were truly one in a million, and I still think about the moments I got to share in your presence.
Dedicated to Edward "Edd" Gould, 1988 - 2012. Stay swell until we meet again!
