Smile Invader Zim


Ok, to let you all know:
1. Invader Zim has been considered anime and also cartoon so now I'm not sure :S
2. I created this topic because I didn't see any
3. There are too much spoilers in here

1.Main Characters:
Can contain spoilers

Zim is a short, green, almost stereotypical looking alien from the planet Irk. He is also a narcissistic megalomaniac who several times per show engages in histrionic outbursts proclaiming either his normality (for a human that is, while in his human disguise) or his innate personal and Irken superiority. He is trying to conquer the Earth, and is generally unsuccessful. Zim wears a disguise when in public consisting of contact lenses and a wig, claiming that his green skin and noticeable lack of ears are part of a "skin condition". He is aided in his mission by a robot named GIR.

GIR or G.I.R. is a dysfunctional version of the Irken S.I.R. (Standard Information Retrieval) units given to Irken invaders, but the meaning of the "G" is unspecified. GIR has a seemingly schizophrenic personality, he jumps in and out of useful operation and this is noticeable by the colour of the lights on his eyes and torso that glow red when he is obeying Zim, the rest of the time they glow a light blue colour, he rarely helps, but sometimes assists Zim unintentionally by doing destructive things to Dib. GIR wears a green dog suit as his public disguise. This dog suit has a very prominent and oversized zipper in the front, adding to the implausibility of the disguise.

Dib is Zim's main rival, a member of Zim's class at the "Skool" they both attend. Dib is obsessed with the paranormal and supernatural and is often criticized by his classmates for being "crazy" or mentally unstable due to his outlandish theories. He apparently is the only human to recognize and care that Zim is an alien and makes it clear that he will live to stop Zim at every turn. Seemingly everyone he comes into contact with claims Dib has an unusually large head, even though all the children in the show are drawn with large heads and Dib's is no more abnormally large than any of theirs. He features an undershirt of the same design as Squee's shirt from Johnny the Homicidal Maniac.

Gaz is Dib's little sister who also plays a prominent role in the show, but rarely takes an active part in stopping Zim's schemes. She knows and admits that Zim is an alien, but doesn't care because she thinks he's too stupid to take over the world, and would much rather color pigs or play video games. Although she has aided Dib occasionally, she has only done this to fulfill her own agenda. Gaz displays mostly indifference, annoyance with or contempt for her brother, and will threaten him with pain in order to make him comply with her wishes. (On a side note Gaz' body is the same body taken from Pepito the son of satan from the Squee comics.)

2.Pics







3.Funny Episodes
SPOILERS - It's in black text
Episode 1:
Well, for me it's the most funny because of GIR. He start singing the doom song, imitating a squirrel and he says the I wanna be a mongoose thingie. Also Zim craziness is funny too, you should see it.

PS: I'm not sure if it's complete or not.

Invader Zim, however awesome it was, isn't anime. Don't argue it.

That being said, Zim was indeed very awesome.

At two this morning, I saw the episode where Zim was taken to Foodcourtia and he got out of twenty years of the Foodening.

Yet another update. I removed the result pics because I think they were just for the quiz. :S

And I have updated the Fist thing. Now it no longer says that Invader Zim is an anime, because it can be considered as cartoon or anime. Anyways, I'll be trying to add more things.
