Regular Show really had no business going this hard…
“The Synth Wars” is the insane climax of Gary’s Synthesizer, where Gary and his half-brother David settle their fight with an actual synthesizer battle.
What starts as a fight over the throne of Synthos turns into one of the most ridiculous music moments ever put in a cartoon.
Gary plays with discord. David plays with perfect harmony.
And somehow, it goes from a synth battle to a full-on cosmic boss fight.
They really made this for a cartoon. 😭
