Now before I begin part two of this theory, I'd like to disclose something. You see, one of the major goals in this theory is setting up a foundation for future theories to build off of, meaning that while some parts of this theory might be shaky, just know that it's partially due to this point as some things currently don't have answers due to the limited amount of info on the MK News Media at the tine of writing this. However, this theory is still incredibly solid as a whole, so don't let this one point ruin the theory as a whole for you. Alright, with that out of the way, let's begin.
Now in order to understand the role of the MK News Media we need to go back quite a bit in the smg4 timeline, specifically to late 2018. You see, at this point in the timeline, a news company in the mushroom kingdom, fittingly called the MK News Media has been struggling to stay in business after the decline in viewers caused by both the Waluigi and Rapper Bob arcs. You see, they didn't achieve all that much success during these arcs due to the infamous T-pose apocalypse (top left of image 2) and Rapper Bob's immense fame (left upper middle of image 2). This would lead to them declaring bankruptcy and nearly going under around a month or two prior to the anime arc. However, their near bankruptcy would attract a group of entities that mysteriously came from another universe (note: it's possible that the entities in question potentially came the great beyond, and could be the in-universe equivalent of the show's writers. However there is also evidence against this possibility, despite there being genuine evidence for it, so this could go either way). Now, you're probably wondering what this group of entities from another universe actually is. However, my answer for this is quite vague because I'm currently a bit unsure where they came from.
However, Despite my vague description of where they came from, I'm actually pretty certain that this group of entities is HIGHLY dangerous because they have the ability to influence future events in the smg4 timeline itself (even more than mr.puzzles) through things like yellow journalism and misinformation. Now a few potential examples of them using this ability (after taking over MK News) are causing smg4 to directly go after smg3 in "Mario's Spicy Day," after a bit of static plays when he starts smg3's spicy ones video (bottom left of image 2), making peach ban anime by discussing that anime is destroying the mushroom kingdom (top right of image 2), and causing lawyer kong go after smg4 after giving him info about smg4's origins (bottom right of image 2). Now while those are just a few examples, there are way more of these that I didn't mention, but we'd be here all day if I went over all of these examples, so let's continue from where we left off.
Now, this group of entities would tell the original heads of MK News that they are interested in buying out their dying news company, telling them that they'll make sure that MK News is successful in the long run, and that all they have to do is let the entities buy them out, even offering to give the original company heads a HEFTY sum of cash in the process. Unfortunately, the heads of the company would accept this deal because the only other option they had would be to go out of business. However, they would eventually come to regret this decision. You see, the mysterious group of entities from a different universe would fire ALL of the current staff and replace them with brand new employees that have similar mindsets as the new heads of the MK News Media, this mindset in particular being that of yellow journalism. Now, for those of you wondering what yellow journalism is: yellow journalism is removing or editing certain parts of information in a news story in order to sell a great story to the masses, and THIS is massively important when regarding the MK News Media, because the idea of yellow journalism would result in them causing certain events in the smg4 timeline (as mentioned earlier), and potentially even changing certain parts of smg4 canon, like the origins of Axol Jr and the Toast Guy (image 3) (Note: this ability is currently speculative due to the lack of evidence towards this being the case. However, considering that the MK News Media seems to take a lot of inspiration from the concept of yellow journalism, it would be a genuine possibility to consider). This would, in-turn, strengthen the story that the MK News Media wants smg4 to tell.
Now, They would also use yellow journalism to cause the events of IMWTLMOE (by creating a series of events started by through getting mario drunk with milk containing alcohol, and this would result in Mario's friends leaving him (top left of image 4)), and Clown Fever (by introducing the depresso's "girlfriend" to the biggest clown in town, aka, us (bottom left of image 4)) before scrapping these potential news stories/smg4 arcs because they thought the stories weren't good enough, as well as the negative fan reception to the start of said stories (image 5). However, they still had a use for clown fever, because one of the heads in the company mentioned the idea of a puppet master villain manipulating the smg4 cast, and considering they knew that an individual known as mr.puzzles had recently taken an interest in the smg4 show around this time through a local newspaper featuring his logo (which meggy would see around this time, as shown in the upper top left of image 6) (upper bottom right of image 4), they would go with this idea and start the preparations for it.
Now, their preparations for this storyline would begin by causing the carnival in the showgrounds to be abandoned through the use of fake news and yellow journalism (lower top right of image 4), as well as using said yellow journalism to close down the circus that depresso was a part of (upper top right of image 4) (evidence for this is shown in the lower bottom right of image 4, where we can see that depresso is acting like he's genuinely homeless while in the showgrounds). Next, they created a series of events that would cause the grand door to be opened (lower top left of image 6). From there, they'd trap the cosmic horror from the grand door inside a sealing keyboard (upper bottom left of image 6) (note: mr.puzzles may not have been the one responsible for trapping the cosmic horror in his keyboard due to his lack of power outside of the digital realm, as well as him running away from mario in the puzzlevision movie (lower bottom left of image 6). However, he was able to trap the smg4 crew in his head, so it's still at least somewhat possible that he trapped the cosmic horror in the eldritch keyboard.) and set smg4 into his pursuit of the perfect video by using mr.yeast to make smg4 obsessed with making far more content with way lower quality (upper top right of image 6), and helping smg3 cancel smg4 without realizing it later on in the episode (lower top right of image 6). Afterwards, they'd make sure mr.puzzles would get the demonic keyboard, which would set the events of the puppet master storyline in motion. Meanwhile, The MK News Media would start the first phase of their plan, that being, disposing of Princess Peach.
You see, one of the major goals of the current MK News Media is to have COMPLETE control over the spread of information in the smg4 universe, so they could continue making yellow journalism esc. stories without having to worry about governmental figures like Princess Peach (upper bottom right of image 6) (note:while there isn't any evidence for this at the moment, there is the possibility that Peach could have gotten suspicious of the MK News Media around this point in the timeline, which would make this plan feel more logical in the long run), so disposing of Peach would be essential to this plan. Hell, the destruction of peach's castle would also make for a great headline with great character development for the smg4 cast (lower bottom right of image 6), as well as a massive change in the smg4 universe. Now, unfortunately for the smg4 cast, the MK News Media would succeed in getting rid of princess peach through using the demonic keyboard and mr.puzzles, which would lead into phase two of their plan, making sure the smg4 crew doesn't learn about the true intentions of the MK News Media, or in other words, making sure they aren't a threat. You see, phase two of this plan would involve mr.puzzles and the showgrounds, with mr.puzzles serving as a distraction for the smg4 cast. This is because despite not being all that powerful outside of his domain, he was still the mastermind behind the events of western spaghetti and wotfi 2023 (top left of image 7). Now, aside from serving as a distraction, mr.puzzles would also sell the smg4 crew the showgrounds (upper bottom left of image 7), a place that would be ABSOLUTELY ESSENTIAL TOWARDS THE PLAN OF THE MK NEWS MEDIA.
You see, in the showgrounds, the smg4 cast would begin construction on a new castle, and this castle would have a boarded-up room (lower bottom left of image 7) that potentially contains an object that gives The MK News Media NEAR COMPLETE control over EVERYONE AND EVERYTHING in the smg4 universe. Except for two characters, those being Tari and Mr.Puzzles (my reasoning as to why Tari wouldn't be affected by the MK News Media at this time is mainly due to what I believe the role of clench is in the greater story, which I'll be discussing shortly. As for my reasoning regarding mr.puzzles not being affected, it mainly has to do with his reactions at the start of the puzzlevision movie, as well as his actions throughout the adware saga, because him being under the MK News Media's control throughout the entire saga wouldn't make that much sense). Now, when the Smg4 Castle was finished being built, The MK News Media would start affecting both the characters and even the very writing of the smg4 universe itself by giving the background characters specific roles in mr.puzzles's shows (like wotfi 2023 (upper top right of image 7)), and causing certain characters like Mario to behave VERY OUT OF CHARACTER, with a few examples of this being shown during the events of both Mario goes coo-coo crazy (lower top right of image 7), and Wotfi 2023 (upper bottom right of image 7). Now in these episodes, Mario would act in a controlled and somewhat malicious manner in the former episode, and in a completely malicious manner in the latter episode, with these behaviors being caused by The MK News Media controlling him like a puppet on strings, while mario is no longer in control of his own actions.
Now, while everything was going perfectly for the MK News Media at this point in their plan, one of their employees ABSOLUTELY DESPISED what they were doing, and would hack into Tari's arm one day, calling himself "Clench" (lower bottom right of image 7). You see, through this persona, he would start his plan to take down the MK News Media by helping Tari while keeping a low profile so that MK News Media doesn't figure out who he is (evidence for this point is clearly shown when we see clench turn himself off twice in "No TV Makes Mario No Okie Dokie" when mr.puzzles makes himself known near the start of the episode (upper top left of image 8), and when the rest of the smg4 cast is running away from mario while heading towards the basement near the episode's end (lower top left of image 8)). Later on in his plan, he would try to convince Tari to go through the boarded-up door and destroy the object behind it, so that all of this insanity can FINALLY come to an end. However, the second half of clench's plan hasn't happened just yet, BUT we can look at all of the events that lead up to where we are now at the time of writing this, so with this in mind, let's begin by going over the 5-part puzzlevision event.
Now, sometime after clench would start the first part of his plan, mr.puzzles would begin to finish executing his own plan by sucking the smg4 cast into his head so he can make his puzzlevision tv shows. During which, he would ask for great reviews for his shows (upper bottom left of image 8), and while he'd get really good reviews, it wasn't the 5 star rating he wanted, and the MK News Media wasn't helping matters whatsoever, because their news headlines and control over the smg4 universe would slowly cause mr.puzzles to hit his limit at the time of MPIGSS. You see, we're made to believe that we are the ones slowly lowering mr.puzzles's ratings throughout the episode (lower bottom left of image 8). However, we are unable to rate puzzlevision episodes until AFTER they come out (upper top right of image 8), so it's more than likely that the MK News Media is rating mr.puzzles's show here, and considering that it's likely them rating MPIGSS, it wouldn't surprise me in the slightest if mr.puzzles made a deal with them in order to continue making entertainment after the smg4 crew would defeat him, and this potential deal is something we can see being hinted towards in the puzzlevision movie.
You see, while the movie starts out with him going crazy while hearing the review by the MK News Media, he somehow maintains his composure to an eerie degree throughout the puzzlevision movie (bottom right of image 8), and strangely, mario spends most of the film not really doing all that much (lower top right of image 8), almost as if a higher power won't let him defeat mr.puzzles. Hell, Mr. Puzzles LITERALLY makes Luigi into a meat mallet despite him intending to kill the cast (top left of image 9), which potentially hints towards him playing a bigger role than we thought with the MK News Media, and there's more still going with these two entities potentially working together, but for now, let's head into the role that MK News Media had in the events of "SMG4 doesn't meme for one second", a seemingly innocent smg4 episode that hides a lot of potential evidence beneath the surface.
You see, in this episode we see multiple instances of things in this episode that don't just feel off, they feel, VERY off. You see, this episode starts out with the episode's opening showing a horror movie esc sequence (bottom left of image 9) right before we see smg4 coming across a meme of a spinning fish that causes him to go completely bonkers (top right of image 9). All the while, glitching and static briefly appear and dissappear on screen (bottom right of image 9). Now I shouldn't have to explain why this instance of both glitching and static is important at this point, because we all now that it's an indicator of mr.puzzl- WAIT A DAMN SECOND..... Mr.Puzzles is inactive at the time of this episode, meaning that this couldn't have been him, which also means that.... OH.... OH GOD! Mr.puzzles wasn't the only entity behind the static and glitching in the smg4 universe, and considering that the MK News Media is STILL ACTIVE at this point, then it means that the MK News Media is more than likely responsible for the glitching and static here as well as some other instances of it in the smg4 universe, which is valid evidence towards my earlier point regarding IMWTLMOE and the static at the start of the youtube arc. Now with this in mind, we can head into the next off feeling moment in the episode, which is the behavior of the smg4 cast towards smg4 in the episode's first half (upper top left of image 10). You see, the smg4 cast treats smg4 in a pretty similar way to how mario was treated in IMWTLMOE (as shown in the scene at the lower top left of image 10), and considering just how many times I've talked about this episode before, I seriously don't think I have to go over it again, so let's head into the next off instance in the episode. Now the third off instance in this episode occurs when meggy is showing smg4 some rorschach tests, and when she shows smg4 one of them, we see the subtitles show the extra words "crowd clap" between the words remind and of (upper bottom left of image 10), which is bizarre to say the least, even by smg4 standards, and I already know that some of you are saying that this is just an error on smg4's end, but here’s the thing my dear reader, I know errors in entertainment VERY well. In-fact, I have personal experience as an animator myself, and I can CONFIDENTLY say that I've never seen an "error" like this before in any sort of media I've seen or made, and believe it or not, the closest thing I've seen to an error like this is usually a translation error (examples at the lower bottom left of image 10), or someone typing out a story in English after using their first learned language (that isn't English), but there's a difference between a translation error and the supposed error we're seeing here. You see, translation errors and second language english versions of media tend to have more than one spelling or grammar error throughout its sentences or paragraphs, meaning that this supposed error has nothing to do with translation. Now this leaves another question, "if this isn't that kind of error, then what about it potentially being an auto-correct/auto-fill or dictation error (examples of dictation errors at the upper top right of image 10)? Well that would've potentially been the case if it wasn't for the fact that not only are the words crowd and clap way more different than remind and of, but also due to the fact that THERE ISN'T A SPACE AFTER THE WORD CLAP, meaning that it likely isn't a dictation or autocorrect/auto-fill error either. Meaning that this MUST be completely intentional on smg4's part (aside from the missing space between clap and of, for obvious reasons), but here’s the thing, aside from potentially asking us to clap (for some reason), I'm completely unsure as to what the significance of this is, but I'll definitely be keeping it for future use if needed.
Anyways, the final off instance in this episode is that the plot of the episode contradicts itself in the final act as boopkins says that his grandma had died (lower bottom right of image 10), and not his aunt as stated earlier on in this episode (upper bottom right of image 10), which, like the supposed error mentioned earlier, is bizarre, even by smg4 standards. However, I have a slightly crazy, yet plausible explanation for this. You see, I believe that this scene, and by extension, the episode itself are a sort of hidden warning as to what the quality of smg4 episodes will end up being like with the MK News Media in control, with the quality in particular being very bad with plot contradictions, unnecessary "fan service" (as shown with smg4 being abused (upper top left of image 11) (keep in mind that smg4 is now the most hated smg4 character in the fandom (evidence for smg4 being hated is shown at the lower bottom right of image 10)) instead of mario (lower top left of image 11)), and bad humor (upper bottom left of image 11) while still featuring new ideas, which is definitely a horrifying concept if you ask me. Anyways, that should cover the role that MK News Media had in that episode, meaning that we can now discuss the other episode that would cause me to get off of my break early to begin with, "Mario The Exploro."
Now this episode surprisingly only has two major points of note, the first of which being at the very start of the episode itself. During which, we see mario suddenly bring in the puzzlevision TV (lower bottom left of image 11) DESPITE EVERYTHING THAT HAPPENED IN THE SAGA'S 4TH ACT! Now I'm pretty sure I REALLY don't need to explain why this is a MASSIVE PLOT CONTRADICTION, so I'll go ahead and explain why mario was behaving like this at the start of the video. You see, I believe the reason as to why mario was behaving like this at the start of the episode mainly involves not only the boarded-up door, but also the deal between mr.puzzles and the MK News Media. Now, as I discussed earlier, the object of power behind the boarded-up door allows the MK News Media to control almost every single element in the smg4 universe, including mario, and the deal that mr.puzzles and the MK News Media made would let mr.puzzles continue to make entertainment after the events of the puzzlevision movie. This means that the MK News Media used mario to grab mr.puzzles's TV head after the events of the puzzlevision movie, which finished the deal that the two entities agreed on, but there's something else I should mention before getting onto the other point of interest in this episode, this being that mr.puzzles is still interested in taking over smg4's channel (upper top right of image 11). Now with this in mind I have two equally plausible predictions as for what this could lead into. You see, explanation/prediction one is that the MK News Media knew that this would happen, meaning that mr.puzzles would be nothing but a distraction for the smg4 cast so that they don't learn what's truly going on from behind the scenes. Now, explanation/prediction number 2 is far more interesting because it suggests that mr.puzzles could be trying to takeover the smg4 channel this time around, so he can destroy the MK News Media out of revenge for the ratings that MK News gave his shows. This would give mr.puzzles a kind of semi-redemption arc where despite being a reoccurring antagonist, he would not only get potential closure over his past (if foul play was involved in his past), but it would also prove to the smg4 cast that he isn't 100% evil, giving a great ending to a fan favorite smg4 character. Now currently, I'm unsure about which explanation is more likely, but I'll hopefully bring up one of these ideas again in a future theory once more evidence is available. Speaking of which, I should move onto the other major point of note in this episode, that being mr.puzzles's character feeling off, almost as if he's a different character altogether. You see, when we see mr.puzzles, he acts far less malicious than he ever was during the adware saga, and instead of being a complete control-freak like how he was before (lower top right of image 11), he is now obsessive over smg4 and wants to give him ideas (upper bottom right of image 11) instead of forcing smg4 to do these ideas against his will, which is a complete 180 from what we saw in the adware saga. Now, this could potentially mean that mr.puzzles MIGHT have been replaced by somebody else entirely. However I believe that this is too much of a stretch, even by my standards, so I'll be leaving this point up for discussion later on if it EVER becomes relevant in the future. Anyways, with that one last point of discussion finished in what I believe the role of the MK News Media has been in the smg4 timeline, we can move onto the evidence for everything that I've discussed in this section of the theory, so let's begin.
Now when discussing the evidence for this section of the theory, I want to start by continuing a kind of tradition in my theories, that being similarities between some of the points of discussion, the predictions for them, and certain well known pieces of media, and yes, we're going over The Truman Show yet again, but for different reasons than you may expect. You see, one of the main reasons why I made this theory the way I did actually involves a certain element of The Truman Show, this being the media shown on the set of The Truman Show itself. Now, there's quite a bit of media in The Truman Show, which ranges from things that are very common nowadays like news segments on tv (Note: APPARENTLY, some nutcase at youtube made it so you can't screenshot certain moments from the film, meaning that I'm unable to supply images for some of these points), or things as old as newspapers (lower bottom right of image 11), BUT they all served the same purpose, MAKING SURE THAT TRUMAN DOESN'T FIGURE OUT WHAT'S TRULY GOING ON. Now, normally I'd bring up how the MK News Media is doing something similar by making sure that the smg4 cast doesn't figure out what's truly going on. HOWEVER, in order to better line it up with the stronger details shown in and after the adware saga, I have decided that instead, I'm going to compare it to the intentions of the MK News Media when regarding the ratings that mr.puzzles recieves throughout the 5-part finale to the adware saga. You see, as I've explained earlier, at the time of the 5-part adware saga finale, the MK News Media was trying to push mr.puzzles into acting the way he does at the time of the puzzlevision movie through the use of news, other media and ratings, which is very similar if not, near identical to what I was explaining earlier when regarding the truman show, which further strengthens my prediction regarding how the MK News Media is using their control over information to cause certain events in the smg4 universe, but this isn't the only similarity that the evidence and my predictions have to The Truman Show. You see, the other major similarity to the truman show that I'd like to discuss is how similar mr.puzzles's return is to that of the return of Truman's "father." You see, in the latter half of the Truman Show's second act, we see Truman's "father", re-appear out of nowhere for ratings (upper top left of image 12) despite the fact that TRUMAN LITERALLY SAW HIM "DIE" WHEN HE WAS A KID (lower top left of image 12), as well as his return genuinely not making that much sense when you consider that truman saw his supposed "father" earlier on in the film (upper bottom left of image 12). Now, you're probably wondering why I'm bringing up this VERY specific scene of the truman show up in my evidence for this theory, and my answer to this is that the return of Truman's "father" is pretty similar to how mr.puzzles returned in the episode "Mario The Exploro." You see, when mr.puzzles returned in Mario The Exploro, his return didn't make all that much sense when you begin to think about it, because not only did mr.puzzles return through the use of mario, a character who actively antagonized him in his shows and wanted to beat the snot out of him during the events of the puzzlevision movie (upper top right of image 12), but also because of the fact that he returned A SINGLE MONTH AFTER THE PUZZLEVISION MOVIE (lower top right of image 12) with barely any build-up towards his return outside of a few community posts (which I'm sure you've seen), which makes his return feel forced, but considering that mr.puzzles's return is pretty similar to what I described earlier regarding the return of Truman's "father," then what if it being forced was the ENTIRE point. After all, if mr.puzzles was just meant to be a distraction for the smg4 cast in order to make sure that they don't figure out that The MK News Media is truly responsible for the events of the adware saga, then mr.puzzles's return a mere month after the adware saga would make perfect sense, strengthening my prediction regarding mr.puzzles's true role in the The MK News Media's grand plan. Anyways, that should cover all the similarities to The Truman Show, so let's head into the rest of the evidence for my predictions in this theory.
Now, you might be wondering why I chose VERY SPECIFIC dates when discussing the fall of the original MK News Media, and believe it or not, I specifically chose the dates in-question (the anime, Rapper Bob, and waluigi arc) because of not only the amount of presence the mushroom kingdom news media had at these times, but also due to some other lesser details that go with it as well. You see, The MK News Media had a decent presence in the waluigi arc, as shown in the waluigi apocalypse, where we see a news reporter discussing the waluigi apocalypse at the start of the episode (upper bottom right of image 12). Now, when it comes to the Rapper Bob arc, we actually don't see the MK news media show up at any point during the arc. Which hints towards them potentially being at risk of bankruptcy at this point in time, which would make a whole lot of sense considering that Rapper Bob was quite literally, the most famous person in the mushroom kingdom during that arc. Now, the anime arc is definitely the most interesting when it comes to the evidence for this theory. This is because we not only see the MK News Media going over how anime is destroying the mushroom kingdom right before peach makes anime illegal, but also because of a small yet very important detail being shown here: THE NEWS REPORTER IS COMPLETELY DIFFERENT THAN THE LAST ONE! (Lower bottom of image 12) The fact that the old news reporter is completely absent during the news discussing anime is a massive red flag for me personally, because if the original employees weren't replaced, then why is KERMIT THE FLIPPING FROG DOING THE NEWS?! It almost seems intentional on smg4's part, which could be the case given that the genesis arc would happen a year or two later, where we'd learn what happened to the multicolored marios. However, the news reporter no longer being there still does strengthen my theory, meaning that it can be used as genuine evidence. Alright, that should finish off the evidence for the dates discussing the fall of the MK News Media, so let's get into the next category of evidence in this section.
Now, when it comes to my evidence as to why the MK News Media would be responsible for mr.puzzles's origins (as mentioned in part one), it mainly involves two inconsistencies with his backstory. You see, mr.puzzles stated that he got his tv head because he apparently decapitated himself before putting a TV where his head used to be (top left of image 13), but there's one major problem with this. You see, when someone is decapitated, they aren't able to control their body (upper bottom left of image 13) (note: it's also implied in the film that mr.puzzles came from a reality like ours, which is makes this inconsistency STAND OUT EVEN MORE (lower bottom left of image 13)), meaning that mr.puzzles wouldn't have been able to put a tv where his head once was, which also means that it's pretty unlikely that he was the person who put the tv in the place of his decapitated head. However, if the MK News Media was somehow able to put the tv where his head used to be, instead of mr.puzzles himself, then mr.puzzles surviving his decapitation would make way more sense in the long run. Now, this brings me into the other inconsistency with mr.puzzles's backstory: If mr.puzzles's tv head was just an average tv that he managed to hook up to where his head used to be, then why does it have ELDRITCH POWERS?! (upper top right of image 13) My answer for this question is that I believe it's HIGHLY likely that The MK News Media gave mr.puzzles his eldritch head to begin with, because it not only would line up perfectly with what I was describing earlier on in this theory regarding the MK News Media, but also because it would explain why the word "Puzzlevision" is on his head to begin with (lower top right of image 13), because it wouldn't make that much sense for mr.puzzles to name his streaming service after the word on his head (uppwd bottom of image 13). Further proving that mr.puzzles's head came from the MK News Media, as well as strengthening my theory.
Now when it comes to my evidence regarding the involvement the MK News Media had in prior events, it mainly lies with how the specific events in question play out. You see, in the first example I mentioned, "Mario's Spicy day," smg4 doesn't try to stop smg3 until he sees smg3's spicy ones video. Now, normally, this wouldn't be all that suspicious. HOWEVER, smg3's video was the only video in his feed (aside from the video he was watching beforehand), which is insanely suspicious, because it subtly implies potential foul play by another entity, which is further strengthened by the glitch that shows up on his computer right before the video plays. Originally, I thought that the static in this scene was caused by mr.puzzles. However, considering that there's evidence towards the MK News Media also being a culprit of the glitches, then it's highly likely that they were the ones responsible for the glitching shown in this scene. Now I've already explained the example with peach and the anime ban, so let's discuss how the MK News Media was responsible for lawyer kong's knowledge of smg4's origins. You see, as I discussed in one of my last theories before I went on break, we NEVER truly learn how lawyer kong obtained his knowledge of smg4's past, or why he didn't decide to go after the meme guardian until after the genesis arc. However, there's a subtle hint towards how he gained his knowledge when we see him show Miyamoto a video while explaining to him what smg4's arrival in the mushroom kingdom caused. You see, right before the video plays we can catch a brief instance of static on lawyer kong's smart device (lower bottom right of image 13), which hints towards another entity potentially giving lawyer kong this information, and like the previous example, I originally thought that mr.puzzles was responsible for this instance, but with the MK News Media also being responsible for some of the static instances in the smg4 timeline, then it's likely that they are responsible for this one as well. Now, when it comes to the last 2 prior events that I connected to the MK News Media earlier on in this theory (IMWTLMOE, and Clown Fever), I actually don't want to discuss how the MK News Media would be responsible for these events because I've gone over these two episodes many times before (especially the former). However, I do want to discuss why the MK News Media would eventually choose to scrap these potential storylines because it actually involves us, aka the viewers. You see, the viewers or in other words, us, seem to be the strongest entities in the smg4 universe because our negative reactions to the lawsuit arc and character redesigns (top of image 14) would end up changing the smg4 universe forever by setting the events of IGBP, and the adware saga in motion (bottom of image 14), and considering that we caused IGBP to happen in the first place, then it's highly likely that our negative reactions to IMWTLMOE and Clown Fever would cause their potential arcs to be scrapped. After all, IMWTLMOE is literally the second lowest rated (on IMDB) smg4 episode ever made, and clown fever was criticized because the clown fever in the episode was too similar to the T-Pose Virus, so it would genuinely make a ton of sense that our negative reactions would cause these storylines to be scrapped. Now, that should cover all of the other pieces of evidence that I have for this theory, but I do want to mention some final predictions that I have for the next major arc/saga in the greater current storyline that we're in.
You see, I believe that the next major part in the current greater storyline is going to be an arc and not a saga. You see, if I'm right about what I mentioned earlier on in this theory, then the story that's going to be told will be too short for it to be a saga, due to it likely being somewhat similar to how the revelations arc played out. In other words, the story will be shorter, building upon what came before in the adware saga, will close up any remaining loose ends from the adware saga, introduce a threat greater than that of the original antagonist, and end the storyline on a very satisfying note. Now, I also believe that this arc is likely going to be 7 episodes long, mainly because it feels like the right amount of episodes needed for this final chapter of the greater storyline, which would give ample time to close off the remaining loose ends while also building off of what we already have from the adware saga. Finally, I believe that the true finale of this storyline will probably be a movie instead of meme games or wotfi 2024. This is because the meme games happens in July, and considering that it's late may as I'm currently writing this, then it's pretty unlikely that the greater storyline will conclude with meme games 2024. As for wotfi 2024, it'd likely be too far off for it to be the saga's finale due to Wotfi usually happening in October, and considering that mr.puzzles has returned already, then it'd be pretty unlikely for the finale to be wotfi 2024, meaning that the finale being a movie is the most likely option. And that should be everything that I wanted to cover, thank you for reading.

Russian Volunteer Corps
In English (translated by u/H-in-S-Productions**, Info-Legionnaire; my own notes in brackets):**
Exactly a year ago, our still small squad attacked a monster! The Russian Volunteer Corps invaded the Russian Federation! And this attack turned out to be spectacular, swift and tangible for Putin’s RF [Russian Federation] and the whole world. Without exaggeration, all the leading international media [https:// t. me/russvolcorps/ 549] came to us and lined up to interview the Corps fighters! Liberal journalists were noticeably cringed by the fact that they had to literally kneel in order to stick their microphones closer to us, the nationalists they hated, and cover our triumph! I will always remember these feelings. And they probably do too. After our resounding success on March 2, it was important for us to show the world not only our audacity, but also to provide a tangible military result, to prove that we are not a “gang”, and our success is not accidental, and we did it: behind us was a brand new BTR-82A, which was stolen by my first deputy in battle, Danya “Puck” [see this famous video], and the area that we temporarily took control of was larger than Bakhmut! The whole General Lapin will then run around Grayvoron, in stupid attempts to cosplay the commanders of the Red Army, on Rostov TV they will tell how we were “destroyed and defeated,” and we will feast and celebrate! Everyone was eager to fight then and were equally ready to fight the enemy who was abandoning positions or to take out the wounded. We “caught” the first KABs, collected trophies, drove the enemy and took control of square meters of our native land, while the whole world watched it live. Thank you to everyone who rooted for us, who supported us, and, of course, thank you, my brave warriors! Ready to storm the skies with you!
Not all participants in those events are alive, but they are still in service next to us and will be with us until victory. Without exception, all of you, living or dead, you are forever with me, and I am with you. Your commander, Denis WhiteRex.
Glory to the RVC!
Glory to Rus'!
In Russian:
Ровно год назад наш ещё небольшой совсем отряд напал на монстра! Русский Добровольческий Корпус вторгся в Российскую Федерацию! И нападение это получилось эффектным, стремительным и ощутимым для путинской РФ и всего мира. Без преувеличения все ведущие международные СМИ [https://t . me/ russvolcorps/ 549] приехали к нам и выстроились в очередь, чтобы взять интервью у бойцов Корпуса! Либеральных журналистов ощутимо корёжило от того, что им нужно было буквально стоять на коленях, дабы поближе просунуть свои микрофоны к нам, ненавистным им националистам, и освещать наш триумф! Я навсегда запомню эти ощущения. И они, наверняка, тоже. После нашего громогласного успеха 2 марта, нам важно было показать миру не только нашу дерзость, но и предоставить осязаемый военный результат, доказать, что мы не «банда», а успех нах не случаен, и мы это сделали: за нашими спинами красовался новенький БТР82А, который угнал мой первый зам по бою Даня «Шайба», а площадь, которую мы временно взяли под контроль была больше всего Бахмута! Целый генерал Лапин будет потом бегать по Грайворону, в глупых попытках косплеить комадармов РККА, по росТВ расскажут, как нас «уничтожили и победили», а мы будем пировать и праздновать! Все рвались в бой тогда и были одинаково готовы рубиться с бросавшим позиции врагом или вывозить раненых. Мы «ловили» первые КАБы, собирали трофеи, гнали врага и брали под контроль квадратные метры родной земли, пока весь мир следил за этим в прямом эфире. Спасибо всем, кто за нас болел, кто нас поддерживал, и, конечно, спасибо вам, мои храбрые воины! С вами готов штурмовать небеса!
Уже не все участники тех событий живы, но они по-прежнему в строю рядом с нами и будут с нами до победы. Без исключения все вы, живые или мёртвые, вы навсегда со мной, а я - с вами. Ваш командир, Денис WhiteRex.
Слава РДК! Слава Руси!

In English (translated by u/H-in-S-Productions, Info-Legionnaire; my own notes in brackets):
❗️ Despite the fact that Russian television broadcasts daily how “Russia is actively opposing the values of Europe,” Stockholm syndrome has spread widely in Russia itself.
People cannot help but notice that prices are rising, life is not getting better every year, the war has been going on for three years, and many of their friends, acquaintances and even relatives have been wounded there, or even killed, but they still continue be indignant: “How can this Galkin [Maxim Galkin, a Russian/Israeli comedian, musician, and "foreign agent" that criticized the Russian invasion of Ukraine] (Grebenshchikov [Boris Grebenshchikov, another Russian musician/"foreign agent" that criticized the invasion], Makarevich [Andrey Makarevich, yet another musician/"foreign agent" that opposes the war], Bi-2 [a Belarusian band that also criticized the war], etc.) talk about our country and our president like that?! But we loved them here for so many years, praised them, fed them, but here they are, ungrateful... ... ".
🗣 In one of the videos, a woman complains about hackers who hacked into a television broadcasting network and showed the flooded Orsk there and the war as it really is (something that Russian television never shows): “Some kind of incomprehensible dregs were turned on, where they spoke badly about the president, they said that war is bad, that there is devastation everywhere in Russia. They showed the sunken Orsk, that money for a dam was stolen there...” Then this woman says that her brother died in the “SMO” ["special military operation", ie, the war], and still she wanted to watch the Victory Parade and see Putin on the podium.
🗣 I would like to ask her: “Isn’t war bad? Maybe war is good?!” Her brother died there, and she wants other brothers, fathers and sons to die there too? The thought never once occurred to her that maybe she didn’t need it anymore? Maybe it's enough to die already?
And after the sinking of Orsk, does she still want to see Putin on the podium of the Victory Parade? Has he already defeated corruption and devastation in the country in order for him to be there on the podium, and did the veterans, including her grandfather, fight so that officials would steal money and cities would drown?! Have she and others like her never once asked such questions, at least to themselves?! First, for yourself, and then for those in power.
👉 Personally, I’m waiting for official sources to start showing us not “victories” in another Ukrainian settlement, the name of which I can’t remember in a couple of minutes, but our real life. First of all, sinking Orsk. Then about what some of the “heroes of the SMO” are - some of them were imprisoned for rape, some for murder. I want to know what is really happening in our country. Whose fault is it that cities are drowning, forests are burning, houses are freezing, and I perfectly understand that this is happening, including the fault of those who do not want to see the obvious, and do not want to admit this obvious. Due to the fault of those who are more comfortable watching and hearing about victories, and hiding from reality within their own four walls. Of course, direct responsibility for all this lies with Putin and his appointees, since there have been no fair elections in Russia for a long time. But they need to be called to account, and not scold all those artists and hackers who, as best they can, are trying to convey the truth to people. Only truth and critical thinking can move things forward, and not the “Matrix” in which the majority lives. Nothing can last forever, including their "Matrix". Nobody knows which city will be next to flood or freeze. I would advise everyone to watch a film called "The Fool" [a film made in 2014)]. And whoever has already watched it will understand that we are all residents of that same home here, and this home is called Russia.
I want Russia to truly become our Home - cozy, warm and clean, and not like in the film about “The Fool”. To do this, we must expel from our Home those who turn it into ruins and ruins, and start a new life, opening a new page of history!⚪🔵⚪ [https://telegra . ph/TekstOtPodpischika- 05-21]

In Russian:
Не смотря на то, что российское телевидение ежедневно вещает, как "Россия активно противостоит ценностям Европы", в самой России широко распространился Стокгольмский синдром.
Люди не могут не замечать, что цены растут, жизнь с каждым годом лучше не становится, третий год идёт война, и уже у многих кто-то из друзей, знакомых и даже родственников был там ранен, а то и убит, но всё равно продолжают возмущаться: "Да как же этот Галкин (Гребенщиков, Макаревич, Би - 2, итд) так могут говорить про нашу страну и нашего президента?! Да мы же столько лет их здесь любили, хвалили, кормили, а вот они, неблагодарные..... ".
🗣 На одном из видео женщина жалуется на хакеров, которые взломали сеть телевещания и показали там затопленный Орск и войну, какая она есть на самом деле (то, что никогда не показывает российское телевидение): "Включилась какая-то непонятная муть, где плохо говорили про президента, говорили, что война - это плохо, что везде в России разруха. Показывали потонувший Орск, что там разворовали деньги на дамбу...". Дальше эта женщина говорит, что у неё братишка погиб на “СВО”, и всё равно она хотела смотреть парад Победы и видеть на трибуне Путина.
🗣Хочется спросить у неё: "Разве война — это не плохо? Может, война — это хорошо?!" Там погиб её брат, и она хочет, чтобы другие братья, отцы и сыновья там тоже погибли? Ей ни разу в голову не приходила мысль, что, может быть, уже не надо? Может быть, уже хватит погибать?
А после тонущего Орска ей ещё хочется видеть Путина на трибуне парада Победы? Разве он уже победил коррупцию и разруху в стране, чтобы ему там быть на трибуне, и разве ветераны, в том числе и её дед, воевали за то, чтобы чиновники воровали деньги, а города тонули?!
Неужели она и ей подобные ни разу не задавали такие вопросы хотя бы самому себе?! Для начала — себе, а потом и власть имущим.
👉 Лично я жду, когда уже официальные источники начнут показывать нам не "победы" в очередном украинском населённом пункте, название которого я через пару минут уже не могу вспомнить, а нашу реальную жизнь. В первую очередь тонущий Орск. Затем о том, что представляют собой некоторые "герои СВО" — кто из них сидел за изнасилование, кто за убийство. Я хочу знать, что на самом деле происходит у нас в стране. По чьей вине тонут города, горят леса, замерзают дома, и я прекрасно понимаю, что происходит это, в том числе, и по вине тех, кто не хочет видеть очевидное, и не хочет это очевидное признать. По вине тех, кому удобнее смотреть и слушать о победах, и укрываться от реальности в своих четырёх стенах.
Конечно, прямая ответственность за всё это лежит на Путине и его назначенцах, так как честных выборов в России давно уже нет. Но их необходимо призывать к ответственности, а не ругать всех тех людей искусства и хакеров, которые, как умеют, пытаются донести до людей правду.
Только правда и критическое мышление способны сдвинуть дело с мёртвой точки, а не та "Матрица", в которой живёт большинство.
Ничто не может продолжаться вечно, в том числе и эта их " Матрица". Никто не знает, какой город будет следующим на затопление или замерзание. Я посоветовала бы всем посмотреть фильм, который называется "Дурак". А кто его уже смотрел, тот поймёт, что все мы здесь являемся жильцами того самого дома, и этот дом называется Россией.
Я хочу, чтобы Россия действительно стала нашим Домом — уютным, тёплым и чистым, а не таким, как в фильме про "Дурака". Для этого мы должны изгнать из своего Дома тех, кто превращает его в развалины и руины, и начать новую жизнь, открыв новую страницу истории!⚪🔵⚪ [https://telegra . ph/TekstOtPodpischika- 05-21]
