And then pull a bunch of total dick moves when people asked "what the hell" like forcing the VAs to apologize for them. Season 2 has...not looked like it's going to be so great

Crunchyroll wasn't the ones who fired them. They were just a producing party. Kadokawa is the owner of the IP, main producer, and Japanese distributor, and were the ones who fired Tatsuki and the rest of Yaoyorozu after they did a short film on their own with some of the characters.

My heart briefly stopped when I read that as Kodansha(Slime's secondary producer) and got worried. But all is good now. That loving sucks though. I can kind of see their reasons(IP protection and all of that jazz), but still man. For the miracle they pulled I'd have given them a slap on the wrist just for appearance sake and called it a day.

It's unlikely that the adventures of slime boy and friends would be hosed with even if that were to happen since its an adaptation. Kemeno Friends probably got screwed over because the mobile game developers wanted more control over the story.

I hate to bring back around to this, but GS has had just about every major Anituber do a video on it and several other none anime tubers talk about it hence the whole popularity issue thing. I know WHY they discuss it, it's YouTube and it'a controversial topic so it's easy as loving hell views. But in a season with so many great shows that THAT is the one that gets latched on to offends me.

I mean, a show doing something GROSS AND SHOCKING to get some cheap discourse and eyeballs around it is neither a new phenomenon nor one contained to anime. It's annoying that the poo poo exists and that it gets attention that way, but there's not all that much to say about it. Not worth dwelling on, IMO, just watch and boost the stuff that's genuinely good and has real staying power.

Preistess being ranked so high offends me since she's not just bland, but such a blatant waifu wish fulfillment fantasy.

My main issue is that you have "Intellectual" channels like Wisecrack and this one other channel that seems to focus on fantasy both give it attention in...positive ways? Not watched the video's but the it has more likes than dislikes and ANY video even SLIGHTLY critical on the GS gets slammed HARD with dislikes like you wouldn't believe. It's stuff like that that bothers me. It's giving intellectual cred to garbage. Endorph posted:dont watch anitubers except for the one lady that puts out a video about an 80s magical girl show once every six months I don't watch any of them either outside of the occasional video on an anime that I do actually like. I mostly just skim to see what they offer.

Yeah, Crunchyroll promotes GS, but it’s not like they haven’t been promoting Zombieland Saga as well. I’ve seen them post tons of pics from it on Twitter, and for one day they even turned the twitter account into a “zombie land saga appreciation” account where they posted nothing but ZLS stuff, which I don’t think they’ve done with GS? The truth is CR promotes the stuff people like, just as much as the stuff people don’t. It’s just that people remember things that make them upset more than “ah good, they like the thing I like” that the promotion of the negative thing stands out more.

maybe one day when you’ve grown beyond the constraints of watching anime solely to see and judge the cuteness of characters you will be able to see my many contributions to the further critical discussion of anime on this forum such as: the thread where people posts characters hands the thread where people post cabbages (sadly shortlived)
