The Hokage Tier always includes 1–3 Patreon-only shows, depending on what’s happening with copyright, performance, and our group recording schedule.

Every quarter, a new Patreon-only show usually appears — not because I planned it that way, but because life, timing, and copyright naturally shape the schedule.

This foundation has been steady since the beginning.That part hasn’t changed.

🔥 Why Demon Lord Happened the Way It Did

Normally, when I create Patreon polls, I try to pick shows that balance:

What we can handle as a group

What won’t instantly get struck down

What I believe will do well on YouTube

What keeps our whole system running smoothly

But many of you reached out with kindness and honesty, saying:

“We’d love more variety. More classics. More hidden gems. More options outside the usual list.”

And that feedback meant a lot.

We already cover more anime than most group channels, and we go places many reactors won’t go —but even then, there were shows I filtered out because I wasn’t sure they fit our strategy.

Then, the Patreon Discord said something that really stuck with me:

“If you let us choose freely, we’ll show up for it.”

So I listened.I opened things up.I collected your suggestions.I built a list of 25 shows, including titles way outside my comfort zone…

…and YOU voted.

That’s how How To Not Summon a Demon Lord became a thing —and I genuinely ended up loving it enough to continue Season 2 without needing another vote.

📌 How Shows End Up on YouTube or Patreon

This part is simple and consistent:

If a show is doing well on YouTube → we keep it there.If strikes hit, or the numbers fall off → it continues on Patreon.

Patreon isn’t where abandoned shows go.It’s where good series get protected, continued, and appreciated when YouTube makes things difficult.

That’s why so many fan-favorite shows live here.

🔥 Why the Legendary Sannin Tier Exists

Let me speak plainly and gently:

The tier exists because members asked for a way to choose ANY show, even if:

I wasn’t planning to cover it

It’s risky

It’s niche

It’s older

It’s something I would normally skip

You all wanted more freedom and more influence over what gets chosen.So I built a tier that gives you exactly that.

Yes, it’s a paid tier — that part is obvious —but the reason for its existence is rooted in your feedback, not in trying to hide content behind a wall.

It’s simply a tool for the people who want the highest level of impact on the direction of the channel.

And you’ve used it beautifully.

📌 A Soft Note About Participation

I also understand that not everyone participates in polls or discussions,but still feels strongly about the results.

There’s no blame or frustration from me —life is busy, people have different habits, and everyone supports in their own way.

But the only fair way for me to make decisions is to follow the voices that show up and speak.And I hope everyone knows that the door is always open if they ever want to share their thoughts.

I want every member — active or quiet — to feel heard and valued.

🔥 What I Naturally Continue

Some shows — like Stranger Things — I personally want to finish because I’m invested.

Some shows are fantastic but tough on YouTube, and others underperform even though they’re great.With so many incredible titles out there, I have to prioritize carefully — unless you, the community, guide me somewhere unexpected.

That’s exactly where Legendary Sannin becomes meaningful.It gives you the power to take us in new directions.
