Not to be confused with the 2022 movie that serves at the finale of this arc.
"STOP IT. THIS IS NOT OKIE-DOKIE."

Revelations Arc is a highly controversial story arc among the SMG4 fanbase.

Reason: Divisive tone, lore reveals and outcome, split opinions on Melony, misinformation regarding Niles being SMG0 in Absolute Betrayal, leading to the implication that "Zero" had been resurrected and causing fans to believe that Axol's death was all for nothing.This must be filled out.

The Revelations Arc is a science-fiction horror mystery dark fantasy story arc, the sixth major story arc in the SMG4 series after The Waluigi Arc, The Rapper Bob Arc, The Anime Arc, The YouTube Arc and the Genesis Arc, as well as being the third and final installment in The SMG4 Cosmology Lore that seeks to tie up some of the loose ends and bring an end to the story of the SMGs, Zero and the mysterious God Box.

The sequel to the Genesis Arc, most of the story is told from the perspective of Melony, a central character to the arc trying to cope with the death of her best friend/lover Axol and her hatred of the virus originating from another universe known as Zero. The Super Meme Guardians contribute to the story as well, as their meme powers are central to the arc and the universe is once again at great risk of being destroyed through the actions of the antagonists, both new and old, but little do they know that they will uncover the long-forgotten past of the Super Meme Guardians and receive very unexpected help from someone who everyone originally thought to be their worst enemy.

Trivia[]

  • Like the Genesis Arc, the Revelations Arc is named after the Biblical Book of Revelations, owing to the overall themes of death, rebirth, and prophetic events involving the release of an eldritch beast to enact Armageddon through a chosen vanguard breaking seals containing it (Mario, Melony, the Super Meme Guardians, SMG0, and Niles and the God Box), as well as many secrets of existence being revealed as an effect of the end times.
  • This arc is the shortest arc in the channel, with a total of six episodes. It is on the other hand, the second longest one in terms of time from start to finish, covering nearly 4 months, beating out the Anime Arc at 3 months.
  • The arc playlist's description states that it is the final arc to explain the lore of the SMG4 cosmology, continuing that of the Genesis Arc.
  • This is the first arc to:
    • Have main episodes across two different years and seasons.
    • Not have the majority of the story be told from the perspective of Mario. Instead, most of the story is told in Melony's perspective.
    • To announce the end of the arc early on.
    • To be a direct sequel to a previous arc.
    • To have the same antagonist from the previous arc.
    • To have two separate main antagonists at once, those two being Niles and the Box Club Leader.
    • To include a trailer in its playlist.
    • To end with a movie.
    • Where all of the original characters introduced in the arc dies by the end.
    • Where the main antagonist gets defeated in an honorable way without being redeemed (peacefully moving on to the afterlife with SMG0), as both Francis and SMG3 had been defeated while cowardly begging for mercy or forgiveness.
    • To contain episodes in which a simple task turns into chaos. Coincidentally, the episodes to be in this type were the first three episodes of the arc.
  • This is the second arc:
    • To have regular episodes in between arc episodes, the first being the Genesis Arc.
    • To add old episodes to an arc, the first being the Genesis Arc.
    • To not have the word "The" in the title of the arc, the first being the Genesis Arc.
    • In which one of the included episodes is a movie, the first being the Genesis Arc.
    • To end without song, the first being The Anime Arc.
    • To not have an episode that turns a basic concept into chaos after the arc ended, the first being The Waluigi Arc.
      • To be controversial among fans because of split opinions on Melony, the first being the Genesis Arc.
  • This is the third arc not to end with the War of the Fat Italians series, after The Rapper Bob Arc and The Anime Arc.
  • The Genesis Arc and this arc were most likely named after the first and last books of the Christian Bible, the Book of Genesis (from the Old Testament) and the Book of Revelations (from the New Testament) respectively.
    • This arc also seems to draw upon certain concepts from Christianity and other religions; for example, the Box Club refers to Fierce Deity as the "Messiah", which means the "chosen one".
  • This arc is widely considered as one of the darkest ones in the series, with its placement varying depending on the person.
  • In honor of the arc, the SMG4 channel banner was changed to it after it was first seen in SMG4: Mario and The God Box.
  • This arc did not have an episode before the Revelation movie on March 26, 2022, but instead a video from the Mario Does Things/SMG4 CREW series, "Mario Reacts To Nintendo Memes 4", was released so that the Glitch Production team could have extra time to finish the film.
  • A week before the movie's release, a hand drawn gif of Melony looking startled was posted, three days before the release, a gif of Niles was posted, and one day before release, a gif of Niles in Eldritch Zero form was posted.
  • The movie proper was finished on March 31, 2022.
    • Assuming Luke wasn't joking, they had been working on the movie for over 300 hours.
  • This is the fourth arc in the series In which the main antagonist is not redeemed, but is instead killed, the first being the Anime Arc with Francis who was killed instead of redeemed, the second being The YouTube Arc with SMG3 who was defeated instead of redeemed and the third being Genesis Arc with Niles in his Eldritch Zero who was defeated instead of redeemed.
