YEAH I SAWYHE nEW PV (thankfully this one was uploaded as a video on Twitter so no region locking :>)
SO IT’S A TWSisTED!JAck cHARACTER???? I see elements in his design that may be references to other Nightmare characters as well. The stitching on the sleeves (Sally?) and the glasses are like the ones her father wears. Maybe the hair accessory/crown is also a reference to the doctor??
AYO I’M SO HYPE, I LOVE JACK SkellinGTON, I WAS A JACk SiELLINGON GIRLIE 😭 First came the Fellowives… now prepare yourselves for the uprising of the Skellingspouses… (<- so ready to stan him) A agagavaganwjkw TREY AnD VIL WOULD bE APPALLE d BY HIS TEeTYH AnD LiP dz BUGT ITmS OKSY
I can’t wait to learn more on the ABEMA stream!!! It’s going to take place on the 29th (7pm JST)!!! OTL That’s a little odd… In previous years, the Halloween ABEMA has historically been mid-October but it is much earlier this year! Sussy…
First off his glasses. They're definitely meant to make his face look similar to Jack's given Jack has no eyes. I don't think giving this guy no eyes would give the same affect, so maybe glasses were the best bet.
Next are the guy's mouth and teeth. His mouth has Jack's pattern from the movie! And his teeth aren't perfect, which I love because Jack's teeth are known to not be. I also like the little difference from the rest of the cast.
Skeleton gloves to resemble skeleton hands, of course. One of Jack's biggest features is his hands and how long those things are.
Jack's little neck accessory has turned into part of his suit. That or it's just upper half of Jack's actual suit.
Rib patterns on the suit to resemble a skeleton since Skellington is Jack's last name and we all know why.
The little lines on his suit are just like Jack's! He also has stitches, which might be a reference to Sally but it may be a reach (Twst devs please give him a Sally).
People asking which one we get between Jack Skellington and Oogie Boogie, while I'm sitting here in a Comm class thinking "Why not both? Lmao". We all recognize them easily, so having it a twist(heh) of both, with Jack's being a hero character and Oogie being the main bad, could work out with how they actually are.
How Yana could go about it, idk, we'll have to wait and see. But honestly, am so fucking hyped for it. But what exactly do you think could be a possible plot idea or what do you think could happen in the event?
You can answer at your own leisure.

I don’t think it’s strange at all that people are speculating which character will be the one twisted. Yes, Fellow and Gidel were introduced as a pair, meaning that there is no limit or precedent set for there only be one new character revealed. However, it’s very clear that Fellow was the star of the show, as he has the stronger presence (and ended up getting the SSR as well). Ultimately, it does mean they end up being treated like a single character rather than individuals anyway. So really, I think most fans are still running on the logic that only “one” can be twisted.
The problem with Jack and Oogie is that they are both strong presences, neither dominating the other when it comes to being attention grabbing. Fellow and Gidel go together, but Jack and Oogie are opposing forces, not teammates, in their own story. This makes it hard to predict which of them will be twisted and makes it less likely they’d be crammed into the same card.
(ncbsbsvwjwheisn NOT GONNA LIE, I’m really hyped for a twisted!Jack Skellington… but a part of me is also really attached to my OC that’s twisted from Jack 🤡 That’s not to say that I don’t want a canonized one; I think I’d actually ASCEND if we got a twisted!Jack Skellington for real!!! It’s just that I wouldn’t know what to do with my OC after the fact 🤷♂️ Something similar happened with my Snow White OC when Neige was introduced in book 5 www)
A popular idea I’ve seen in circulation is another isekai plot where either the students go to Halloween Town or the Nightmare Before Christmas characters come to Twisted Wonderland from Halloween Town. I’d wager that’s a pretty safe guess! Like… they’re doing their Halloween parade prep and there’s a new character disrupting things. Maybe they’ll have to pull off a heist or kidnapping of some kind?? 🤔 It would be funny if the NRC boys had to help play matchmaker for a Sally and Jack/j Personally (and this is a stretch), I really would like to see some kind of casino or gambling element because I love those design details for Oogie’s lair. Not sure if it would make sense being a large part of the event story, but it would be cool to consider.
Too early to judge the new character, but considering he's based on my favorite character from my favorite movie, and I could potentially pit him against one of my OCs...
