I was _just_ thinking about how January is the longest yet shortest month ever 😆I'm so incredibly happy seeing that you enjoy the gifts! And thank you for all of the wonderful compliments on my artwork - you're too kind! I appreciate it so much. I'm so excited to see Lunge on a future episode 😉 And yes! The pieces with color were painted with watercolor (with pen for line work). The black and white pieces were done with pen & ink. I'm happy to hear that others have recommended Hyouka as well! Looking forward to seeing it on the wheel of fate soon! Always love some KyoAni goodness. Sounds like you're going into the year with the right mindset and attitude. Big props to you and your mods for all the mental work put into handling the various kinds of attention the channel gets. I'm sure it can be really tough and exhausting at times. I concur with everyone else who has mentioned self-care and advocating for your own well-being. Do whatever is best and healthiest for you. ❤ "FebruYuri" is just as catchy and brilliant as "JanuYaoi" 😆Genius!
January really is one of the worst months, but I'm glad it's past us know! THANK YOU SO MUCH for the gifts - they were truly wonderful and I appreciated them so much! I definitely will be wearing that shirt in the future! The artwork was great! I love seeing watercolor art and the ink pieces looked great! Hahaha, Kyouka on the Wheel of Fate would be fantastic! Thank you for all the support and kindness on the channel - it means a lot and I really appreciate it! Here's to a great FebruYuri!
Thank you so much for the comment and kind words! Yes, I am living for the shows this month -- but yeah....Utena is going to be rough this month...hopefully it's all worth it! We shall see!
One of the things that I appreciate from you as a creator is definitely the transparency with your viewers. I'll take note of that if I ever do it in the future 👍 Very relateble with the jump into the pit comment 😅 I think Link Click does it to everyone. Although my first thought after hearing that comment is "Banyue??!! Don't fall into the pit again" 😂 "Shorter animes" 👀 My heart still holding out for Bungou to Alchemist (13 ep) 🤧 As for other anime I am curious about you covering, Dr Stone's new anime stuff (idk what exactly it is I haven't watched it either 😅) and TBHK new season is also out (only 3 ep out at the time I'm writing this). And Blue Exorcist too (I'm unsure if you have watched it your spare time or on the channel) has some new content as well. Pretty gifts 👀 May you have a delightful February 😊
I love Dr. Stone but i literally cannot watch much anime rn😭 but i already read the manga content and i love it. not sure why it's rarely talked about since it's so unique
Oh thank you so much! I appreciate it! Link Click definitely has me like Banyue in the trenches, hahahaha!!! We shall see on those shorter anime! And ah, I probably will not cover Dr. Stone because I've already read the manga - it's fun, though! With Blue Exorcist, who knows - it will depend on Patreon interest. With TBHK - I saw a new season was coming out - at some point - when this schedule and my time allows, I'd like to look at volumes 22 and 23 - with the anime, though, it would depend on patreon outreach and requests at this point! But who knows what the future holds! Thank you for the comment and kind words and have a great February!
Well I'm not even sure why I watched this channel update, guess I just really like listening to you. Cause I still live in the past 🤣 I'm still finishing up your Case Study of Vanitas reactions and gonna start Banana Fish reactions. I don't know yet if it made you cry but I'm gonna break apart once again with your digital, time traveling company this time 🤣That's my schedule update as a viewer 🤣 Got a long way until I'm up to date with you but enjoying it immensely nevertheless. Thank you for the content!
Have a nice month! I'm excited for your reactions this month! Honestly I haven't watched any if the sports anime that you have on the poll, so I've just been watching the voting 😅 But I'm interested in seeing what wins, I might watch it too then!
After ping pong i'll probably go back to not watching anime so i'll enjoy watching along while it lasts🤣 love the discussions so much. refreshing to see a ping pong reaction/discussion again after so long. but hope you enjoy all the shows you watch. and ofc ik you'll continue to be successful for a long time
You talking about the comments made me unreasonably nervous. I always try my best to word my comments nicely/friendly and to keep them spoiler free. But everytime you talk about unsavory comments, there is this smal voice of doubt nagging in my head, questioning if any of my comments belong to those becouse I didn't word them well enough xD If any of my comment ever miss the mark, please, feel free to tell me so! I love sharing my thoughts and discussing things with you in the comments. That you are so active in the comments is one of my favgorite thins about your chanell! (Together with you beeing the only RUclipsr I know that does reactions to older and more nieche shows!) So I would never want to overstep any lines/boundarys with my comments! >.< Also, I wish I could give your "Run with the wind" reactions some love, becouse it made me sad seeing you sad over no one watching them. But I only know that anime by name, and running isn't really my kind of sport xD I hope it finds at least a smal audience anyways! I'm exited to see what the following months bring to your channel ^^ See you in my next comment!
I appreciate you trying to be respectful and considerate! That honestly means a lot! And no worries, if I respond to your comments, that means it's "all clear!" :D Run With the Wind is SUCH a great sports anime and series in general! The book is really good as well; hopefully, I'll get back to finishing it! I appreciate what you said about the small audience, though! Thank you so much for the comment and kind words! I'm so excited with what's on the channel this month and I hope you all enjoy as well!
I love your videos and overall content 🫶 when you finish the Houseki no Kuni / Land of the Lustrous anime will you read the manga? As sadly, I don't think a season two will get announced anytime time soon 😔. But regardless I hope your February will be a good one and I'm excited for more videos !
Be on the lookout for fan subs of the Sk8 the Infinity ova, it either just got released in cinemas Japan or is about to be, and when that gets home release or streaming in Japan, I expected the fandom to work fast.
Yes! Patreon has kept me updated! I will be waiting until it hits streaming, which will probably be later between spring and summer, but then I will react to it! Thank you!
Edit 3: this is going to be a long comment lol sorry about that 16:30 ok I'm going to open this rabbit hole. If you ever actually get a good setup to do a visual novel, I STRONGLY recommend Danganronpa, if you do not know about it already. It's, imho, one of the best pieces of media out there, and pretty friendly towards people who are inexperienced with visual novels. That, and I feel like you would really enjoy Danganronpa. Only reason I didn't mention it before is because I didn't even think you'd ever consider playing an actual visual novel lol. Like, your schedule is already really busy AND you also teach???? And still you don't seem to get burnt out. That's commendable. I remember when I started watching anime I tried watching almost 10 episodes of different stuff weekly and got burnt out pretty quickly. Anyways, if you're interested, I'll provide more info about it sometime in the future, if you upgrade your setup. Would love to know your thoughts on it :) Edit: 18:57 this. I feel like I never mentioned it, but whoever commented that definitely speaks for all of us. It's hard to find good reactors, especially good reactors with great discussions and analysis. This is probably one of my favourite communities in RUclips. Idk, it's VERY welcoming and comfy, which I'm grateful for. You've created something good and I can feel the passion in what you do. Please, never change (insert cute/cool/fun emoji because I can't find any that fit my comment lol) Edit 2: man, I can't believe, after all this time, some people still don't respect your boundaries, ESPECIALLY spoilers and unintentional "spoilery tips". Like, first and foremost, it's kind of obvious to not spoil and let people enjoy the show blindly. And even then, you've talked about it multiple times. Well, no, multiple is cutting it short. You mention it almost in every video I've watched. Para-social relationships sure are a thing huh. One of my favourite things about the channel is how eager you are to respond to us all and all the extremely insightful comments and back and forths that happen. Like, I know some people don't intend to ruin it for you, but it's such a shame that that's what would happen if not for the mods. Which by the way, if you're reading this, big props to you all. You're doing an amazing work and I don't see enough people talking about you aside from Romania (at least on the yt comment section). Edit 4: 30:45 Ping Pong was a show I've never been too interested in. Sports is not my favourite genre per se. Only thing I know about it is that I heard plenty of good things about it. However, you've convinced me to give it a go hahaha. Will watch the first episode sometime soon then will jump to your reaction. Like, I know that voice you used there. That's the voice that was telling everyone to go watch March Comes in Like a Lion (and I couldn't agree more!). I definitely trust your advice. People, wish me luck... I feel like I'm going to need it🫡 Edit 5: 33:15 Utena causing depression followed by Link Click? Oof. Please take care of yourself 😭. Haven't got around to Utena yet but I KNOW Ikuhara will make the viewer depressed, especially the more insightful and analytical the viewer is. So having that followed by Link Click... Personally, I'm waiting for this new arc to finish before I jump into it. I'm more of a "weekly episode rather than binge watch" kind of person, but when I watched the first 2 seasons... I COULD NOT WAIT. You (and pretty sure everyone) has experienced that with Link Click😭😭. I'm not putting myself though that agony lol. So yeah, waiting for it to finish. When it does, I'll watch it, suffer, then be sad it finished, then watch it with you again and then suffer again. Sounds like a plan (a plan to lose my sanity) Edit 6: 38:35 thanks to you, who puts this much effort into every video! It's been a pleasure to comment thus far (sorry for the long comment though hahaha). To be honest, my whole life will change in month or so and I'm terrified. It's videos like these where I can just chill out that keep me in check, so thanks again for your hard work. Been watching and enjoying your content since the very beginning (literally) so showing support is the least I can do. I hope you continue to grow with the same passion you've had all this time. Making a living of what you truly love is one of the best goals one can have in life. This comment has reached an end, finally, I think. Lol. Don't think I've ever written such a long one. To whoever has made it this far, thank you, have a great day, and remember that people care about you
Thank you so much for the comment and kind words! Thanks for the recommendation for the visual novel; I’ve heard that’s a good one! So I’m glad it got another recommendation - I usually like to go in 100% blind, so the less information about a story for me, the better. 🙂 I do really appreciate the kindness and I’m so glad you enjoy the community here! That’s definitely one of my goals, so I’m glad that still is the case! Thank youuu!!
Damn, a whole month passed, jeez, I've been so busy I haven't been able to watch anything 😭 Also I heard you mention a discord yet I can't find it on patreon.
Oohhh! I will DM you on Patreon and get you a link to Discord! Sometimes, it doesn't immediately show up *grumbles at Patreon* Thank you for letting me know!
Out of curiosity, how far ahead do you have to record episodes to stay on top of your schedule? Recording, editing, uploading -- it must all be pretty time-consuming
Well, back in the summer, I had gotten to where I was about 3-4 episodes ahead. Unfortunately, taking on a total of 12 series in November-December was...A LOT...and now I'm just about a week ahead of where I am on Patreon. I would like to build back up, but it will probably be before summer when I can do it. And YES. Honestly, I have an 8 am - 5 pm full time job throughout the week, so every night I record and then record and edit on the weekend - it's a LOT of work. So the support I get on Patreon is REALLY appreciated! I get not everyone can be a patron, so even the support on YT is also appreciated! Thank you so much!
I was _just_ thinking about how January is the longest yet shortest month ever 😆I'm so incredibly happy seeing that you enjoy the gifts! And thank you for all of the wonderful compliments on my artwork - you're too kind! I appreciate it so much. I'm so excited to see Lunge on a future episode 😉
And yes! The pieces with color were painted with watercolor (with pen for line work). The black and white pieces were done with pen & ink.
I'm happy to hear that others have recommended Hyouka as well! Looking forward to seeing it on the wheel of fate soon! Always love some KyoAni goodness.
Sounds like you're going into the year with the right mindset and attitude. Big props to you and your mods for all the mental work put into handling the various kinds of attention the channel gets. I'm sure it can be really tough and exhausting at times. I concur with everyone else who has mentioned self-care and advocating for your own well-being. Do whatever is best and healthiest for you. ❤ "FebruYuri" is just as catchy and brilliant as "JanuYaoi" 😆Genius!
January really is one of the worst months, but I'm glad it's past us know! THANK YOU SO MUCH for the gifts - they were truly wonderful and I appreciated them so much! I definitely will be wearing that shirt in the future!
The artwork was great! I love seeing watercolor art and the ink pieces looked great!
Hahaha, Kyouka on the Wheel of Fate would be fantastic!
Thank you for all the support and kindness on the channel - it means a lot and I really appreciate it!
Here's to a great FebruYuri!
So happy for your growth, Romania! 🎉❤🎉
Thank you so much, Sunray!
Always happy when you talk about a show in your schedule and say how much you love it!
Sending you hugs for Utena sundays 🫂🫂
Thank you so much for the comment and kind words! Yes, I am living for the shows this month -- but yeah....Utena is going to be rough this month...hopefully it's all worth it! We shall see!

Pretty gifts 👀
May you have a delightful February 😊
I love Dr. Stone but i literally cannot watch much anime rn😭 but i already read the manga content and i love it. not sure why it's rarely talked about since it's so unique
Oh thank you so much! I appreciate it!
Link Click definitely has me like Banyue in the trenches, hahahaha!!!
We shall see on those shorter anime!
And ah, I probably will not cover Dr. Stone because I've already read the manga - it's fun, though! With Blue Exorcist, who knows - it will depend on Patreon interest. With TBHK - I saw a new season was coming out - at some point - when this schedule and my time allows, I'd like to look at volumes 22 and 23 - with the anime, though, it would depend on patreon outreach and requests at this point!

Hahahaha, to be fair, Case Studies and Banana Fish are worth the time travel! I hope you enjoy them and thank you for the comment and kind words!
Looking forward to February!!! ❤
Me too!!! Thank you so much!!
Have a nice month! I'm excited for your reactions this month!
Honestly I haven't watched any if the sports anime that you have on the poll, so I've just been watching the voting 😅
But I'm interested in seeing what wins, I might watch it too then!
Thank you for the comment and for the kindness! At least you get to see the sports anime poll go down in real time!! Thank you!
i hate those backseat comments it is never helpful for reviews, commentary, reactions, etc. very fustrating. i'm sorry you dealt with that.
Thank you for the comment and kindness! I am glad that they are balanced by those that are kinder on the channel!
The Lunge t-shirt!!! ❤❤❤
I am so lucky and happy to have it!! It will be a reaction shirt!
I am glad that patrons likes One Outs.
I wish I was millionaire. then I would commission a bunch of anime reactions.
Thank you for the comment and kind words!
LETS GO HYOUKA!!
That Lunge shirt! I envy you 🥺
Thank you!! And I am so shocked and happy with that shirt!
After ping pong i'll probably go back to not watching anime so i'll enjoy watching along while it lasts🤣 love the discussions so much. refreshing to see a ping pong reaction/discussion again after so long. but hope you enjoy all the shows you watch. and ofc ik you'll continue to be successful for a long time
I hope that there are others you give a shot on the channel, but if not, I am excited to see how Ping Pong keeps going! I'm loving it!
I am so excited for Word of Honor I could cry.
Thank you! I am LOVING it so far!
I havent watched Ping Pong time to go marathon your reactions.
It's so fun! I hope you enjoy it!!
wait wait wait....The manga of Land of the Lustrous will be SHOCKING(I am screaming silently now
I am so excited for the manga!!

Yeah! Not sure when, but she said she would read it. Looking forward to it (I haven't read it yet either). Still holding out hope for a S2 tho lol
She said in the video that she’s gonna read it! I don’t have a timestamp, but she confirmed it ^^
Go to the part of the video where I talk about the weekly schedule! Thanks!
Be on the lookout for fan subs of the Sk8 the Infinity ova, it either just got released in cinemas Japan or is about to be, and when that gets home release or streaming in Japan, I expected the fandom to work fast.

A bit ill at the moment, so I only skipped through the video. But I'm very excited for Word of Honor! Hope you have a wonderfull February.
Oh no, I hope you get to feeling better!! But yesssss, Word of Honorrrr! Thank you for the kind words and comment - so excited about that show!
@@RomaniaBlack Thanks for your well wishes! Unfortunately not any better yet, but I guess that gives me plenty of time for reaction watching tomorrow.
Damn, a whole month passed, jeez, I've been so busy I haven't been able to watch anything 😭
Also I heard you mention a discord yet I can't find it on patreon.
Oohhh! I will DM you on Patreon and get you a link to Discord! Sometimes, it doesn't immediately show up *grumbles at Patreon* Thank you for letting me know!
So I will have to pay you 50 bcks for you to try a music anime? 😏 or shows are not on the table?
Check out the stipulations I said about the commission tier!
Out of curiosity, how far ahead do you have to record episodes to stay on top of your schedule? Recording, editing, uploading -- it must all be pretty time-consuming
