Happy anniversary to Arlo the Alligator Boy, I remember watching it back in 2021 and I instantly fall in love with this underrated gem. Besides meeting Arlo and the gang, it's filled with colorful animation, banging songs and great performances, it became one of favorite animated films of all time. To this day, I'm still hoping for season 2 of I heart Arlo but for now, Happy anniversary to our little alligator boy! 🥰🎂🐊🍕🦅🐟🐅

Happy 3rd Anniversary Arlo the Alligator Boy! ^v^

As someone who only just joined this fandom late last year, I still wanted to celebrate its anniversary, as this little film has managed to mean a lot to me in such a short amount of time.

When it came out in 2021, I can remember seeing maybe one or two YouTubers talking about it but not many others, making it easy to just brush off. It wasn't until December 2023 when my friend @toondandy convinced me to give it a watch - and I'm SO happy I did! ^v^

While I can't say it's my favorite movie of all time, it's certainly in my top 25 simply through being such a happy and positive experience that I just really admire and appreciate for being so genuine with its heart and its charm. As someone who enjoys fun characters above all else, I love the chemistry between the cast and the found family aspect, I love the absolutely spectacular animation and music of the film, and I love the themes of body positivity, identity, optimism, and the importance of community.

By the time I joined the Arlo fandom, it was pretty much dead (which was to be expected, given that this was a Netflix fandom that hadn't seen any canon content in forever - though I did enjoy going through the backlog of adorable fanart I now had, haha, shout-out to @vanillaearwig for helping keep this new lowkey hyperfixation of mine going through their incredibly cute and really great Arlo art ^v^) but while I was somewhat disappointed, that didn't stop me from thinking about these characters nor did it stop me from sharing the movie and TV show with my brother, my best friend, and another online friend of mine (who I later commissioned to make me an Ansel plush, which I still love to bits! ^v^)

So yeah, tl;dr: Wish I could've watched the Arlo movie and show when it first came out, but hey- better late than never! So yeah, happy 3rd anniversary to a wonderful film and show that (despite Netflix still being a bit of an animation garbage fire rn) I hope gets a sequel or another sort of final follow-up sometime in the future ^v^

Also, for the record: My Top 5 favorite characters in order are Ansel, Arlo, Marcellus, Furlecia and Teeny Tiny Tony; my Top 5 fave Arlo songs are Better Life, Something's Missing, Beyond These Walls, Beautiful Together, and More,More,More; and my Top 5 I Heart Arlo eps are In The Blue With You, Make A Fish, Be The Turtle, The Shedding, and Swamp Itch.

Arlotober Day 9: Friendship

Ice cream after a movie? What could be better!

(THIS TOOK SO LONG BUT IT WAS WORTH IT!!!)

The original Au is based off of @/i_love_anselbeauregard on Insta‘s au! It inspired all of this! But from the many differences I would probably count this a it’s own separate version.😅

Extra addition of Arlo Beauregard and Mayor Gordon!💗💗💗

Happy Last Day of Pride to all the Seaside By The Seashore residents!! 💕🏳️‍🌈☀️💜🐊

I know June was a hard month for a lot of people. It was definitely an extremely difficult month for me for a lot of reasons. However, I hope these coming months are kinder to you all, and that all my fellow queer friends & followers still found some semblance of joy this pride month 💖🎉🌈

(I did NOT draw the background I just edited a screenshot from the show.)

Happy One Year Anniversary to I Heart Arlo !!❤🐊

I love this silly alligator and his friends and every time I rewatch this show it feels like a warm hug. I really can't comprehend that it's been a YEAR already 😭💕

I genuinely just love and adore this cartoon so much. Ryan and the entire crew did such an amazing job packing so much love and hard work into this, and every day I'm thankful that I get to watch that hard work. 💕💖💕

Here's to another year of funny alligator cartoon and I will personally fight Netflix for a season 2 please I need it more than anything. 🤸‍♂️💖💜💕

More Arlo headcanons because I'm bored

Though he's willing like trying from time to time, Arlo's favorite food is gumbo and beignets, what's the process he was raised in the swamp.

Bertie's favorite is tofu and vegetables, but definitely enjoys veggie burgers and stew or fruit salad.

Alia's favorite is any fish-related, but definitely she has a sweet tooth like Arlo, she likes gummy fish or basically desserts such as jello and pudding.

Furlecia likes seafood salad or bread sticks, any types of tea and hard candy.

Tony is possibly a pasta guy, giving the fact that he's Italian and owns a pizza restaurant of course, Napolitan spaghetti and cheesy stuffed shells, cannolis and enjoys anything that has cheese.

Obviously, Ansel is definitely that guy who loves expensive food like caviar, escargot, hors d'oeuvres and tuna steak, but goes on a diet sometimes.

Back when he used to hide his wings, Ansel has a custom classic car as a gift from Arlo's late mom, also limos just in case he needs to get around.

Arlo definitely loves horror films either classic like Scream and Friday the 13th and modern films like Happy Death Day and Nope. But Ansel doesn't, he even block Arlo's eyes when anything graphic happens.

Marcellus loves raunchy comedies, whether good or bad comedies, especially films by John Waters.

Tony and Alia likes buddy-cop films like Rush Hour or Die Hard but enjoys both classic and modern Pixar films.

Ansel and Arlo love films with musical numbers like James and the giant peach, Hairspray and Encanto.

Edmee was disappointed at Ansel for the whole abandoning Arlo thing at first, but is glad to see him trying to a better parent to Arlo.

Thao visits the seaside on her day off sometimes.

Gordon and Jermomo go on misadventures when Arlo and the gang not notice.

The gang host a pride parade at the seaside, every year.

Every father's day, Arlo and Ansel hang out together.

Not me remembering the Grand Galloping Gala episode of MLP g4 and applying the scenario to the Arlo crew going to that year's MET Gala-

Arlo (given that it's the anniversary of when his dad finally accepted him as his son) just wants to hang out with Ansel

Bertie just wants to enjoy the actual art that's at the museum

Tony wants to try and get people to try his Italian hors d'oeuvres that he snuck in/wants to try and advertise his pizzeria

Furlecia wants to show off her absolutely AMAZING outfit/hairstyle for the paparazzi to advertise her salon

Alia just wants to have a fun time

Marcellus wants to cause a bit of chaos/challenges himself to steal something seemingly impossible to steal just to see if he can

And of course nothing goes as planned, but they still manage to have a good time in the end, going out for midnight donuts afterwards

[luckyshinyhunter]

Have some Arlo headcanons

Arlo can knit after Edmee teaches him.

Ansel gave Arlo a phone.

Arlo loves hot chocolate.

Besides Marcellus, Bertie had a hard time trusting Ansel at first, but though time she gives him a chance for Arlo.

Ansel and Arlo love musicals and animated musicals, tho Ansel is a big musical fan.

Marcellus is the only person who likes anchovies on pizza.

When he's nervous, Ansel plucks his feathers from his wings.

Alia goes crazy over catnip.

Bertie loves fruit smoothies and juice.
