I am discontinuing the Picture in Picture Style of Reactions
🕑 Added 2024-02-28 20:26:35 +0000 UTCHello, Everyone. Unfortunately, I have decided to stop doing the anime footage in the corner style of videos. I will continue to do it for shows that have been grandfathered in, such as Soul Eater, Shinigami Bocchan, Smile Precure, and Hidamari Sketch until they are finished, but reactions to new shows will go back to the old format of subs and timer.
There are two reasons for this decision:
1: I'm really not comfortable posting the entire anime episode in my reactions because, even though it is transformative enough to potentially qualify as Fair Use, it could also potentially not qualify and be considered Copyright Infringement. Either way, a court case to decide that would be something I couldn't afford and would not be worth it.
2: I simply do not have the time. I do not have a car and need to ride the bus to get to work everyday. And the public transportation system where I live is pretty bad. The bus arrives at the stop once an hour and the timing of it works out terribly for me to where I either end up being slightly late for work every day or I take an hour earlier bus than I should "need" to. This essentially results in me leaving my home, spending half an hour walking to/waiting at the bus stop, riding the bus for an hour to work, and waiting in the break room at work for close to an hour before my job actually starts.
Basically I record videos, go to work, work, come home, edit videos, go to bed. And of course squeeze in eating food when I can. That is basically my life right now. I can tell this has been having a negative effect on my mental state and has influenced my videos, especially since I've gotten a couple comments from people basically asking if I'm alright.
I started doing the whole Picture in Picture style reaction as part of a desperate attempt to make the channel more profitable to help pay off my debt (which is currently at $4,272.10) and to help get a car which I very much need. However, I've really come to understand recently that taking care of your mental health is more important than making a little extra money.
Hopefully this news isn't too disappointing. I very much appreciate the support you guys have given me and if you continue to watch my videos I will do my best to make them enjoyable to watch.
