Why Kenny is the MOST IMPORTANT Character in South Park

Kenny most certainly is the foil to Cartman.
Cartman is a narcissist, Kenny couldn't be more humble.
Cartman is a misanthrope, Kenny is a humanitarian.
Cartman is the most evil character on the show while Kenny is the most wholesome character on the show, even more than Butters, despite Butters having a much cleaner mouth and a super-much-more-repressed sex drive. (Also a much cleaner sense of humor😉🩵).

💜

And I must say, Karen is a MUCH more developed character than Kevin 👍👏 Despite Kevin existing as a fictional character much, much, MUCH longer 👍👏

Kenny is selfless, sacrificial, sweet, kind, nice, humble, and the best character on the show despite Stan actually being the lead protagonist

Stan is rude, crude, loud-mouthed/mouthy, unfiltered, a little shit, disrespectful, selfish, too into his reputation, money-hungry (you'll see money-hungry by the episode Butterballs) (like his dad), he will only help others if it benefits him in some way (save animals like cattle calves, but humans? Forget about it!), he's too worried about what Wendy Testaburger thinks about it, disloyal, reliable, in denial of his subconscious romantic feelings toward Kyle/self-unaware of his affections for Kyle, addicted (just like his father)/prone to addiction, he only cares about Kenny if there's something in it for him, such as the episode before "A Ladder To Heaven" (save the episode "Kenny Dies"), too similar to Kyle/not much of his own unique individual (despite not being moral enough like Kyle/despite not being as moral as Kyle, save that), easily manipulated (hence the episodes "My Future Self N' Me" and "Trapped In The Closet") aka he's way too gullible and naïve, unreliant, negligent/neglectful, he ignores Wendy and is ignorant toward her, he's into girls' butt cracks (would probably toss a salad), he can't come up with his own words (hence the episode "Deep Thinking"), he's unconcerned about school shootings not only for others' safety but also his own, he goes against his own word, he ditched Kyle in the "Game of Thrones"-based "Black Friday" trilogy, he's emotionally weak and mentally weak, he's just like his dad, he always goes back on learning from his mistakes at the end of episodes by completely going against him in future episodes, he ditched his Broship friendship which caused Cartman to become a Rabbi and caused his own best friend a sucky life, he's ignorant, childish/immature, foul-mouthed, and he has a gross sense of humor, he's mean, cruel, self-unaware, a skinny version of Cartman, wanted Cartman as a slave in the Civil War Reenactment episode, immoral (hence wanting slavery), and..Do I even need to go on? Or was that more than enough!?

Also Stan forced Kenny to do gross stuff for money, he's desperate enough to take Kyle seriously on joining The Goth Kids when he went into a depression over a relationship that HE ruined HIMSELF, he got depressed over Wendy dumping him even though it was his own fault why she dumped him, he didn't realize it was his own fault he got dumped (hasn't spoken to her IN WEEKS), he called Wendy a bitch and flipped Tolkien off at the end of that episode, he volunteered to shoot Cartman to prevent Cartman from destroying the world from a Trapper Keeper even though it should've been Kyle cuz Kyle obviously hates Cartman more/instead of letting Kyle do it or offering for Kyle to do it, he immorally laughed about Butters getting raped by Cartman by Cartman giving Butters a fellatio AKA thought it was funny just like Kyle and Kenny did (really, Kenny!? You know better!!), he forced Kyle to be in a tree house with Wendy and Bebe for Truth Or Dare just to get closer to Wendy, he didn't debate Wendy's dare for Kyle to give Bebe a mouth-to-mouth kiss even though Kyle was obviously extremely uncomfortable about doing it, he wasn't the one to try to warn Butters about Cartman pranking him for the night in the episode "Cartman Sucks" before Kyle was, he's not as clear-headed as Kyle, he abuses Kenny and takes advantage of him, he takes Kenny for granted, what else now..?

Also Stan's too stupid to recognize Cartman's speaking voice on the phone in the episode "The Passion Of The Jew" just like Cartman didn't recognize his.

Also Stan's cruel to Pip just like everyone else, he didn't want anything to do with Pip, Butters, or Dougie during the meteor shower just because he hated them, wanted nothing to do with them and to save his own reputation in the episode "Two Guys Naked In A Hot Tub", he called them "Melvins", he's gross enough to "lovesick" to literally throw up, he tricked his parents into believing he cut off his own hand, he assumed Butters literally coming out of a closet and revealing to be Professor Chaos meant that Butters was a homosexual (even though Stan obviously has a subconscious romantic attraction to Kyle), he made Tom Cruise lock himself in HIS (Stan's) closet, he stole a bunch of infant cattle as some hero activist even though theft is still theft and people still want veal as food, he wasn't even creative enough to come up with his own solution outside ChatGPT at the end of "Deep Thinking", he wasn't smart enough to think about his idea in the episode "Super Fun Time" earlier to stop the Burger King therapists at the never-break-character event-touring-place or whatever it is/was, he'd rather be faced with an angry mob with torches (save pitchforks) over telling his parents the truth just to prevent himself from getting grounded when Kyle said that in "Butt Out", he's a perv to decided to look at Laura Tucker's gina-fro when Cartman said he had a picture of Mrs. Tucker's vaginal hair on his cell phone unlike Kyle who knows better and just like he's a perv enough to like girls' butt-cracks, he didn't save Kyle and his family in San Francisco, California from the smug storm before Cartman did, now what else..?

Kenny should've been ferocious at Cartman for raping Butters rather than mock Cartman for doing something gay most especially since Kenny obviously subconsciously has romantic feelings for Butters🧡🩵🫶🫶🏻

Also Stan'd rather play World of Warcraft than give up and enjoy life in some other way than play the game..

Kenny's selfless except he doesn't like to share, hence not liking to share with his brother Kevin & not liking to share with Cartman (even though Cartman just tries to steal from Kenny in games of 'tug of war'), but this could probably stem from the fact that because Kenny is poor he'd rather have things to himself and try to enjoy things, hence wanting to enjoy what little he could out of his continuous-deaths life rather than take care of a little sibling slash baby sibling as you can see in the episode 'Cartman joins NAMBLA'.

"Okay, but you guys own me for this one": says the selfless guy who never wants anything in return - But seriously, Kenny, you deserve something
~ But seriously, we love you 🧡💛
As fans of your show, we love you 🫶🫶🏻

If Kenny wasnt friends with the others he would've turned out like a greater person tbh, like EVEN more of a great person omgg. his future in the post COVID is really upsetting cause hes sacrificing his life so his friends wouldnt fight together and Kenny is THE best character, maturing is realizing Kenny was genuinely a kind character abd selfless tbh 🥹🫶

For those who don't understand
Major Boobage is a parody of the animated movie Heavy Metal, pretty awesome movie. The sequel.....let's just say the 2000 title was appropriate to the time for the content involved

I don’t think it was selfish that Kenny didn’t want his parents to have another kid if you think about it their family is very poor and Kenny mostly takes care of his siblings and it is sometimes for the better that a family who are drug addicts or are poor should not have children because it heavily affects their already children. They do more parenting than the adults. And some situations it’s OK to be selfish because in that case, he would actually be helping his whole family money wise and also supporting other child is just crazy.

I just really like Kenny, he is very good even with all that he goes through, with literally dying all the time for example

The saddest thing about Kenny’s character is how good he is at Magic: The Gathering. He’s way too poor to ever go anywhere in that world.

All this Kenny appreciation is great but it’s hilarious that Cartman would rather be homeless than Jewish

Do y'ever think maybe, just maybe, we watch too much TV?

i think having a bunch of kids when you know you dont have the money or resources to take care of them is so incredibly selfish. kenny knows his home life is horrible, so trying to prevent his parents from having another baby is one of the nicest things he's done

This was an awesome video on Kenny. I know people are bringing up that Kenny trying to prevent his parents from having another kid isn't entirely from a selfish place. I agree, but I'd also like to argue that, even when he was willing to stay in Romania, he was considering the long-term investment. He had his mom there, and he knew that he'd be able to provide for his family were he to become successful. (He's an excellent strategist. Best on Earth.) Unfortunately, that was torn from him.

I also like that, while the other three were constantly feeling swayed by outside forces when taking the vaccines to the school for Mrs. Nelson, Kenny was the only one locked in on the mission. Not even hundreds of dollars made him think twice about it.

I er yep best man

John 15:13 no greater love than this, to lay down his life for hia friends.

Bro Morgan and Morgan works for the devil. They have ruined more lives then ww2. Don't contribute to their evil. Nice vid tho

At least he uses his immortality for good

I don't care what any other South Park says, if at all. Kenny DOES have the ability to feel the romantic love, he does have the ability to feel romantic feelings - feel real, genuine feelings. I don't wanna hear or read anyone say: "Oh, maybe he does love, but he can't love romantically" or "He has the capacity to feel love, maybe love his friends and family, but not love in a romantic way" or "He's only a luster, not a lover.". Or "He can't feel romance." Saying: "He's a sex pervert, he only lusts, not loves." Or "He's a sex pervert, he only lusts, never loves." I believe that Kenny had real genuine feelings - real sincere feelings for the girl Kelly in the episode "Rainforest Schmainforest", and the character Tammy Warner in the episode "The Ring" at first, but when he found out her secret, he wanted more, yes. But Tammy Mullins, that's all lust, I honestly think. He only liked Tammy Mullins' breasts.

I think Kenny does have the ability to feel sincere feelings of romantic love and anyone who thinks otherwise is just underestimating him. 😒

Bro has some of the most brutal deaths in cartoons I've seen man, it's crazy, he must be literally hated by every god out there with some of his deaths. Absolutely premeditated.

kenny is literally frisk undertale

When Kenny survived umti the end of that Christmas episode I fully expected the D of "The End" to fall on Kenny. Excellent subversion of little me's expectations.

This fool doesn’t have car insurance.

Kenny didn't die in every episode 🤔

Cartmen was done dirty in the Post Covid special. We saw that when they broke up their friendship Cartman was able to change for the better, meaning that the friendship only brought out the worse in him.

You did miss something. They used the wrong spell. They used the immortality spell instead of the summoning spell.

why when anyone talks about post covid clyde is hardly mentioned?

wait

Can we acknowledge the fact cartman became better when the group separated but was the only miserable one when the group didn't split up.

He is the great big and humble hero of that universe

Kenny is the best 🧡🧡🧡

Have we considered the possibility that at least the boys if not everyone is aware of Kennys curse but no one talks about it. Hence he feels ignored because everyone is actively ignoring it, because they know.

kenny quite literally call his mom spawnpoint

Odd head canon but every episode that Kenny "survived" he dies off screen as mistrion

Eww, why’d I cry? Damn u Matt, trey and Johnny

Can I still hire a lawyer if the rear ending was repeated and consent was given? Asking for a friend.

okay asking for me.

If he wasn’t a character the boys would be adults
