We wanted to get this up as soon as possible because we know some of you were expecting a new Hunter × Hunter reaction today. Unfortunately, because of the ongoing copyright situation, we’re not able to upload it and we’re pausing the series indefinitely while we figure out what happens next and we are in contact with Patreon.

I also talk a tiny bit about the bigger picture why we think it’s important that there continue to be spaces where fans can come together, discuss the art they love, share interpretations, and experience these stories as a community in the wake of all of these Anime channels having issues with strikes. For us that’s always been such a bigger part of what reaction content means to us is being able to discuss the art with fans.

I’m working on a much longer video explaining the entire situation in detail and cover other creators and their experiences , but we didn’t want to make Patreon wait for that video before giving you an update here.

Also lil disclaimer about the background noise: my sweet old man is wandering around behind me during this video 🥺 he’s 15 now and has a hard time getting comfortable and laying down sometimes, so you may hear his little footsteps/shuffling and tippy tapping around in the back sorry about the noise but he's got senior dog privileges ❤️

Thank you guys for being patient with us through all of this and for continuing to support what we do! We really appreciate you all!

Hello. I really feel for you about all these copyright problems and I understand why you have to discontinue this series. Sincerely. But the thing is, HxH was the sole reason I subscribed to your patreon after seeing your HxH uploads on September 18. I was so excited so I subscribed the very next day, and to my surprise, they're already already deleted. I've already issued a refund request, can you take a look at that?

Please feel free to DM us!!!

It's been unfortunately rough for anime reactions as of late. Having been a subscriber for many years it was exciting for there to be more anime stuff but the timing absolutely cooked it. But the other content is still amazing and I hope this will all be fixed soon! Keep up the great work team!

whats that pink thing in the background lmao

billmack

Maybe a stupid question; but is it possible to upload watch-alongs with no visible or audible content from the show at all?

Styles

Pick up widows bay in space of hxh for Wednesday? 👀 the episodes are short 29-33 min long so would be the perfect slot,only if you guys are able just had to hype it again🤝

Xavier Chandler

Maybe Love death and robots if animation is still in play

ZitherManifesto

Its a Shame, ive been really looking forward to watch you all watch Demon Slayer, I hope in the future it all works out where you can finish it. But this does suck for us ANime lovers

Diegesis

wish I could say but unfortunately this company we are dealing with is striking people even if they are only mentioning names of shows or talking about them and never show an image, video, or audio.

Diegesis

We actually will be watching Widows Bay eventually!

Chris Bruneau

Maple, sorry to hear you guys keep getting targeted. It really sucks! According to A legal blog I follow, Sony, crunchyroll, and aniplex are using AI to aggressively crack down on even tiny, slight violations and are even pressuring youtube for TOTAL channel cancelation!! So you guys are playing it safe and smart! ❤️

would it not help to remove the visual/audio of the episode all together and just have the reaction isolated on it's own. I understand why this format wouldn't be ideal for YouTube, but as a Patreon exclusive watch along, I don't think it would make much of a difference.

Armchair Rizzard

This isn't your fault its the fault of the greed and laziness of media companies. I'm a longtime fan.

Some other streamers host their Patreon-only videos on a different platform. They don't seem to deal with as many copyright strikes on Patreon even though they do deal with that on their public videos that are hosted on the site that shall not be named. eg. the streamers Yaboyroshi and Lynmoore don't appear to have a copyright issue with their Patreon-exclusive videos. Not ideal what they use to host their Patreon-only videos--Patreon itself, or maybe Vimeo? But would an alternative hosting platform be an option for y'all for your Patreon-exclusive content?

S'all good bruh

Thanks for refunding me. Would love to subscribe again if ever you get back to reacting to HxH, and I hope you do. I've watched a lot of your reactions in Youtube and I love how you discuss the shows you've watched. I don't always agree with your opinions, but I love the way you two think on many things, and I've always thought that it'd be great if you would react to HxH because it's a special anime with lots to discuss.

SalmonWins

Awful that you are having to deal with this to such an extreme - it's crazy that the copyright is so harsh! Wild to me especially when I think about the fact that anime episodes used to be uploaded to youtube left and right (including by the official account!) and now you can't even see an audio-free clip....thank you guys for trying so much for this and hopefully you will be able to return to the series one day.

Diegesis

someone else asked this question too and we wish we could say but unfortunately this company we are dealing with is on record for striking people even if they are only mentioning names of shows or talking about them and never show an image, video, or audio. They claim on their website to use an AI system that does not differentiate content.

Garry Michael Allen

There are also creators who stream entire movies complete with reactions and post them on file sharing streaming sites and never have any issues. They just link to them in their Patreon posts. One has been doing this for ages and they never get removed.

Teyon Alexander

This is the problem with doing Anime watches. They’ve been really cracking down. I’m sorry you all have to deal with it.

Ashley Faith Reacts

Wow, so now even videos on Patreon are getting strikes?! Is nowhere safe? *sigh* Thanks for trying; that really sucks.
