Hi all, hope everyone is doing well.

So there's been a little development going on for me in regards to a sponsorship in alignment with WEBTOON, which means I've had to switch my video from Claymore to my video topic surrounding book covers. This video was originally going to release after the Claymore and After God videos anyways, so I've pushed it forward.

The reason behind this is simply because the ad has a deadline that would be way too early and premature for me to complete the Claymore video in, unless I wanted to really overwork myself badly. Given Claymore is the longest manga I've yet to cover, with a whopping 27 volumes, it understandably will take longer than say The Summer Hikaru Died or Fool Night, which were in the single digits for volume count.

That being said, the sponsor is an amazing opportunity, I've been wanting to cover some WEBTOONS in the future but the company are quite strict with copyright issues, so if I get in their good bucks with a sponsor hopefully I can request a video be made in the future! (Given the copyright issue I had with Realta, I see this as justice!!)

The video that will be replacing Claymore (and I'll be back on that series straight after I've finished this video, which hopefully want take long) is covering the topic of the saying "Don't just a book by its cover". Now, as a graphic designer, and as someone who has designed book covers officially, I totally love this topic. It fits in line with art as a topic, and another big hobby of mine - reading!

It's definitely an opinionated and debate-worthy topic, I talked with my two sisters about it yesterday for 2 whole hours, and it makes for a great discussion to be made into a video. So, I hope you're excited for this video nonetheless.

And by all means, I'll ask all of you, too: do you judge a book by its cover?

Hope you're all doing well,

Dani

I am actually really curious about this video covering... well covers. XD Because eveb the saying is used a lot, I haven't seen a lot of people actually talking about it in this sense.

Also when it comes to judging a book by it's cover it really depends. Regular reading books doesn't have the biggest impact. It mighy look interesting but I would always look at the back and read the summary to know if it is for me. Comics on the other hand has fooled me a couple of times. Especially Superhero comics like Marvel. Since usually the covers are made by separate artist then who did the pages. I remember picking one cause of the art and being disappointed that it wasn't what the comic looked like. The reason for this was because I've only read manga and the Donald Duck magazine, which were consistent with the art. Was an unexpected experience, which made to look better at what kind book/comic I'm buying.

Do whichever video you gotta do, we'll be here to watch whatever it is! Can't help but judge a book by it's cover if that's the first impression and you don't know anything about it yet. But if someone recommends something to me because of the contents then I won't really care what the cover looks like.

hey, that's pretty cool! I always thought it sucks abt the realta video, that's why i even started reading the comic in the first place :/
