This gets a vote from me because you said "..this is the one I would love to start with". In my experience when a content creator really enjoys a thing... Then we the audience will really enjoy watching it with you. It's not just always about the audience. It's what you really wanna see too. When you really enjoy what you are watching that energy and excitement shows in your reaction. And it's easy for the audience to enjoy it as well. Sometimes the audience picks a thing you don't enjoy... And that shows. So if you love it I say go for it.

@Michele I have a similar problem. I don't mind reading subtitles... BUT every time I've tried it hasn't worked for me. I LITERALLY can't read the subtitles fast enough to keep up 99% of the time. And even the rare occasions I can... Then my Entire focus is on the subtitles and I can't pay much attention to the actual video part. Which is a huge problem.

I don't think I made it past the pilot on that one myself... Very rough. I think my favorite anime has been Sword Art Online - and the various spin offs - but there are a lot of excellent ones.

I think you would enjoy the live action One Peice.

Careful with opening the anime door to YouTube especially. Very toxic group especially if you don’t do it regularly. They are always going to want more than you can give. I love anime but it is very filler heavy as well Haven’t watched this show but if you decide to continue it will be a new experience for both of us

I personally would love to see you react to Attack on Titan as a series! It’s definitely one of the best anime to come out in the 2010’s, which is saying something!

I was wondering when this would pop out, I’ve been waiting since I found out you reacted on this one and man did I enjoy it. I really don’t know anything about the fanbase of this anime, I just focused on the show only and its awesome, would love to keep seeing your reactions on this one. The music is always so epic, gives me chills everytime, and yes, the animation is on point!! The one thing you should really be careful about is the openings (the intro songs) they always have spoilers, dont not why but thats apparently a thing in anime and a great thing about this shows is the unexpected things that happens so, maybe you can skip those, and yeah maybe you’ll need a moderator like in SPN cause people can drop somethings and affect your reactions. That aside, I really hope you can keep with this anime, and rewatched along side your reactions. Hope you’re okay and see you in the next video.

Anime watchers, as a whole, love watching people react to their favorite shows, and many will welcome you to the AoT fandom with open eyes. They will be excited to discuss the show with you, and many love to hear what reactors think is going to happen next. There will be a huge response to you watching this show. However, haters are a VERY vocal minority in almost every anime fandom I've seen. "Difficult" fanbase is putting it very mildly. Off the top of my head I can think of a few issues: 1) The fact that you're watching the dubbed version, rather than subtitles will generate huge hate in the comments, regardless of whether or not your reactions will be better with the dubbed version. This happens with every reactor I've watched with every anime. Usually with the people who prefer subtitles letting you know repeatedly and angrily that subtitles are the right way to watch, and doing the dubbed version makes you less of a fan, while the people who prefer the dub version or the people who don't care which you watch yell at the "sub" people to shut up and let you enjoy the show how you want to. 2) Spoilers abound throughout pretty much every anime fanbase. From people pointing out what small things are important to remember for future episodes - e.g (using Supernatural examples) "Hey, did you hear Lucifer tell Dean that Sam will always say yes in Detroit? Don't forget about that." - to "subtle" jokes that hint at future events - "Chuck sure must have a god-like ego with everything he says, right?" - to flat out spoliers - "Castiel is working with Crowley to suck the souls from Purgatory". That includes people sending dm's, tweets, emails, etc directly to you in case you miss their comments. 3) If you don't react as expected at every moment, there will be hate in the comments. You will also generate hate in the comments based on whether or not you like specific characters (because of the character arc that said character is GOING to have), even if you've only seen a few episodes - "Oh! Of course you would say Castiel seems cold right now [after he threatens to send Dean back to Hell if he doesn't do what the angels want]. You have to be pretty stupid to just judge him like that without really knowing him. Give people a chance." Again, there will be a lot of love for you that you're watching this show, especially since you really find empathy with characters in the shows that you watch. But the haters are very common.

I should mention that when I saw that this was one of your pilot reactions, I was super excited for this and I'm really happy that you enjoyed the first episode. This anime is hugely popular for a reason.

Michele

Wow. I follow other Reactors who react to this show, but I've never seen it. I used to watch these sort of shows many years ago, but had lost interest in them. But, I decided to watch this reaction of yours to it. It definitely got me interested, so I'll watch if you do more reactions. Those Titans look like they're mindless naked giants. Just on autopilot. Could be interesting to find out what's up with that.

Michele

Wow. Could they actually be worse than SPN fans? Sounds like it. eek For myself, I prefer the dubbed version, because having to read subtitles will make it harder for me to watch what's happening at the same time. Kudos for those who can read really fast and still enjoy. Me, I need the verbal stuff to go with the action, and if I don't know the language, I miss that.

Toasted Toad

All true, except it depends whether the voracious anime hoards spot Daara's reactions. I think they tend to be male, and gravitate towards male reactors. Personally, I find the issue of subtitles vs dubs difficult. On the one hand, it can be easier to follow the action in the dub because you're not trying to read at the same time, On the other, dubs are often not done all that well - not necessarily the fault of the actors, but their voices are sometimes inappropriate, and some things can sound really odd in English. Spoiler problems on YT can probably be dealt with by mods. I agree music is amazing, but the intro theme is really long, and when added to the tedious recap you can be several minutes into the episode before anything happens. Also after the end credits, there is a summary of what's going to happen in the next episode! So you can't watch right to the end.

Toasted Toad

I started watching the show just so that I could watch this reaction with you (although I watched the subbed version). Man, it's dark! I mean, it starts off with the mother getting eaten alive in front of her kids - you can guess it's not going to be sweetness and light after that! But thoroughly addictive. Especially as the episodes are so short and tend to end on a "to be continued". None of them seem to be self contained. Pretty sure there is manga of this too, so the looks of the thing - the characters, the monsters, the town, the fighting style - would be obtained from that. But translating manga to anime I'm sure requires lots of skill and imagination to fill in all that static pictures cannot capture. But I think that sometimes that's why anime has the style it does - lots of fixed shots and stills. But I'm a newb to the genre and doubtless very ill informed.

I'm not saying people shouldn't have preferences regarding sub vs dub. But let the reactor react to the version they prefer. Throwing hate on them for not choosing your preference is stupid, especially when you're (theoretically) wanting them to enjoy the show. And moderators can only help so much. I saw a reactor who got a HUGE season 2 spoiler sent to them in their DM's on Twitter. Trolls are very persistent in spoiling. Agreed!! The entire soundtrack for this series is amazing. The intro theme is long, but I never get tired of hearing them. I can do without the recaps, though. Fortunately, only a couple of episodes have after credit scenes, so there's no need to watch to the very end.
