January Update for future projects + Reaction news
**Just a reminder that I’ve started streaming. The past two streams have been on YouTube and the third probably will be as well, but after that I will be switching over to Twitch at: https://www.twitch.tv/aleczandxr
Upcoming video schedule for the next while + some ideas! Please note that release dates are always subject to change for varying reasons and are not set in stone. And a reminder that you can ask me about any of these as well, of course, and note that there are some more potential topics listed in the Donation Goals at the bottom. If any of those get funded, they will be added to the list.
REACTIONS:
- The remainder of the Arcane reactions will be uploaded every Monday evening. Double early access will continue until the end for 20$ Patrons, and same with the other tiers.
- I am currently in the process of making a more polished analysis video on Jayce Talis to go up on the main channel (more info below). As soon as I’m finished that, early access to it will be available on here for 15+ Patrons, and that will be 3-4 days early at the very least. I would be open to making more Arcane videos as well
- After Arcane is finished, I want to try giving Attack on Titan reactions a go for the new season. I've read the manga so they will not be blind in terms of story content - only in terms of the adaptation - so I wonder and am a bit hesitant about how much interest there will be for that, but I want to give it a try anyway. I’ll record the first episode and see how that is before uploading. If I feel that some might enjoy it, I’ll follow through. If not, I might just scrap the idea. But if I follow through, early access will be available for 5$+ Patrons and Full length for 10$+ Patrons. I don’t know yet if the schedule will allow for double early access since these will begin uploading the week after the last Arcane reaction, but I’ll give clarity on that in due time.
- Regardless of the Attack on Titan stuff, I’d welcome any and all recommendations for potential future reaction series. Arcane kinda spoiled me for being my first one, but it was super fun regardless and I’m willing to do another blind series.
MAIN CHANNEL:
CONFIRMED videos for the next while are as follows (These are completed and ready to upload unless stated otherwise):
- Jayce Talis: The Brilliance of Arcane’s Golden Boy [This video is currently being worked on, nearing the final stages. Early access will be available as soon as it’s ready and it’ll be the next main channel video. Length: 18-20 minutes]
- The next part of the FFVII video series - an overview of Final Fantasy VII Intergrade Yuffie Episode. [This video is COMPLETED and will be released after the Jayce one. Length: 23:02]
- Kei Tsukishima: The Teammate Everyone Needs (Haikyuu!!) [This video is COMPLETED and will be released probably sometime in February. Length: 16:43]
- The Origin of Heisenberg [This video is COMPLETED and will be released early 2022. Length: 16:46]
Videos I'm currently working on that are very likely to happen:
- A second video on Arcane - I’m thinking about it covering Viktor, Mel, or maybe the brilliance use of subtext that the show has
- A Breaking Bad video - Likely discussing Hank or Gus in some way.
- A second Mad Men video - Current working titled is "Mad Men and the Illusion of Happiness" - rough notes have been taken down.
- A comprehensive narrative analysis for each of Hunter x Hunter's other arcs (post-Exam). This will likely be done for Hunter Exam, Zoldyck Family, Greed Island, Chimera Ant, Election and Succession War. MAYBE for Heaven's Arena due to the video I made on the arc a long time ago. No need to cover Yorknew because I already made a video about it. (**This may also be replaced with a different HxH project I'm mulling over)
- A Video on Bokuto from Haikyuu - I moved this one up because I got some inspiration for it. The structure of a script is there, this may happen in early-mid 2022.
Videos I'm currently working on that MAY happen:
- A Violet Evergarden video - I have a general idea for how I could approach this topic now. The core of a topic is in place and some rough notes have been taken.
- Videos on Hoshiumi from Haikyuu - I've got some rough notes down for both but neither will happen until WAY down the line. Probably not 2021 for either.
- A video on Levi from Attack on Titan - Have some rough ideas down.
- A video on Zeke from Attack on Titan - Have some rough ideas down.
- A video on Morel from HxH - Have some rough ideas down in case this gets funded, as it is currently a donation goal.
- A video on Megalo Box Nomad - Have some rough ideas down in case this gets funded, as it is currently a donation goal.
- A video on Beastars Season 2 - Have some rough ideas down in case this gets funded, as it is currently a donation goal.
- A video on The House in Fata Morgana - Have a script idea in mind in case this gets funded, as it is currently a donation goal.
- A video on Umineko no Naku Koro Ni - Have some rough ideas down in case this gets funded, as it is currently a donation goal.
Video ideas that I have an urge to make, but haven't started any work on yet:
- A video for all of the donation goal topics listed below that weren't mentioned above
- A video on Omori (Finished the game for the first time and loved it, so wouldn't mind covering it but no plans in place)
- A video on Chrono Trigger
DONATION GOALS
Also, a reminder that if you have any pledge processed at all, you can put that amount towards one of the donation goals below with no extra charge! Being a Patron means being able to put your pledge towards any of the ongoing donation goals.
The updated donation goals progress is as follows:
- A video on my interpretation of the main theme of The House in Fata Morgana (visual novel). Not likely to be a long video, more like an emotional/thematic overview about the main story and Requiem. Second channel. Audio-only. [43.2% COMPLETED]
- A video discussing the approach, style and themes of Megalo Box Nomad (Megalo Box Season 2). This would be a shorter video, similar to my video on Season 1. It would be fully edited but likely be put on my second channel. [4.0% COMPLETED]
- A video covering my general overall feelings on Umineko no Naku Koro Ni (visual novel). Second channel. Audio-only. [81.0% COMPLETED]
- A video discussing Yui Ikari from Neon Genesis Evangelion and what she represents to me. Second channel - I cannot put this on my main channel due to Evangelion videos constantly getting copyright strikes. Audio-only. [0.0% COMPLETED]
- A video about Mawaru Penguindrum and what I take away from its themes, characters and presentation, and what it means to me. This would be a main channel video, with footage and all. [6.1% COMPLETED]
- A video about Morel from Hunter x Hunter. This would be a main channel video, with footage and all. [20.0% COMPLETED]
- A comprehensive video overview of Beastars Season 2 - the themes, character arcs, etc. This will probably be a pretty long video, and I have some notes taken down already. This would be a main channel video, with footage and all. [15.0% COMPLETED]
FULFILLED AND COMPLETED DONATION GOALS:
- A video on Better Call Saul. This would be a main channel video, with footage and all. [100% COMPLETED]
- A video overview of what Hyouka means to me personally, why I love it and what I take away from it. This would be a main channel video, with footage and all. [100% COMPLETED]
