Super JoJo vs. Cocomelon

This is a very important issue.

Are there any other parents of toddlers, who watch YouTube, and have seen both Super JoJo and Cocomelon?

I've been amazed at how Super JoJo rips off Cocomelon!! Sometimes even frame by frame! Most of the songs have exactly the same subject matter, different tune used to say the same thing, even the main baby characters, JoJo and JJ. Both have older brother, middle sister, mum and dad are the PERFECT parents and seem to never have to work but have beautiful mansion-esque houses with an abundance of ridiculous toys for the children to play with. But when I google it to see if maybe there's a reasonable explanation (like they're both made by the same company), there's absolutely no information about them.

AIBU to spend my days and nights obsessing over this trivial major issue? To contact the press and demand answers? Maybe start a law suit?

When the Skidamarink song title flashed up the first time, I glanced up and thought I read 'Skidmark'.

If I ever get my hands on the maker of Baby sodding Ronnie. That little shit has SO much to answer for in this household. Also, why does his father sometimes call him Rony (rhymes with pony)??

Baby JoJo and Baby JoyJpy can fuck off, too. And Kiki and cunting Miu-Miu.

Ahhhhhh... that’s better.

@SuckingDownDarjeeling

I've never seen ChuChuTV and I'm now feeling glad that's the case 

@HappyPunky YES! The skiddymarink song, he sees a mess and TIDIES IT!! What a stand up guy. Is it illegal to marry an animated character?

@SuckingDownDarjeeling I won’t pass judgment if you want to be with CocoM dad so long as you are cool with me wanting to be with Ms. Appleberry... —“I’d love to be her daddy.. I do, I do”—

Hahaha!! So funny!

NoOneOwnsTheRainbow · 19/01/2021 17:58

We prefer Little Baby Bum... although Cocomelon comes a close second. Especially since they've done so many LBB/Cocomelon crossovers. Grin There's a lot of rip offs of LBB and Cocomelon. If they're half decent I don't mind but some of them, the animation is actually disturbing.

Aw damnit I just got ZOMBIE'D. Blush

They are owned by the same company. J.j. is super jo jo

It seems like the creator of both? may be an Asian American man specifically Korean named "Jay Jeon."

Cocomelon Dad reminds me of Nick Clegg.
Yes he tidies up but I can't help thinking it's only a matter of time before he cuddles up to a Tory, then pisses off to lie for Facebook.

Kervin152 · 20/04/2021 14:58

Total rip off!! How is that possible? I demand an explanation!

Ok so my daughter was born in November of 2019 didn’t have to watch Cocomelon up until this year 2021. Now I completely agree on all this madness about Cocomelon and Super Jojo. Jjs dad is a baddie I have the same crush 😻 the daddy and daughter day at the beach and the clean machine video did it for me when he’s shirtless in his what I assume to be raybans and the playing with jj doing the meep meep meep noise got me swooned. And the energy he brings to the room in every video and the chores. He’s a baddie

I feel seen. Thank god I found a post about if super Jojo was copying coco melon. I am not alone

snappyturtle80 · 13/07/2021 03:07

I joined just to comment here. My daughter loves super JoJo and I hate it. I also tried researching where it's from to no avail. Is it from China? What drives me the craziest is how little educational content there is, even compared to cocomelon. The song that makes me want to run far away is Humpty Dumpty. Humpty Dumpty..a princess! NO! No, it's an egg that falls off a wall, dammit! At least try to make the shit rhyme.

SissiL · 22/08/2021 11:39

Feel the same way! That’s ridiculous. Yes, please start a lawsuit, I’ll be standby always!

SissiL · 22/08/2021 11:52

No, only CocoMelon. Probably because the copyright issue. Super jojo is a plagiarism.

DuDu2020 · 13/06/2022 01:11

I created an account just to reply to you because I need you to know that you're not alone. I live in Shanghai and have a 19 month old little daughter called Offy (her Shanghainese name is DuDu). Anyway, it's nice to meet a fellow Jojo-hater. I used to dislike Cocomelon, but my hatred for Jojo and its blatant, unoriginal and poorly produced plagiarism has created a bizarre bond of common ground between myself and Cocomelon. Sadly, my daughter seems to love Jojo as she is naturally unaware of the concept of ABHORRENT AND UNAPOLOGETIC THIEVERY. Alas, we have to content ourselves with publicly hating on it online. The channel did get banned after being sued by Cocomelon, but a month later got unbanned, so I guess copyright exists no more 😒

DuDu2020 · 13/06/2022 01:14

@snappyturtle80 wow I noticed that you also joined just to comment and have a daughter who loves it hahaha.

I promise I wasn't plagiarising your comment >> << >_>

But yes, Jojo was indeed made in China, a place notorious for copyright infringement.
