Thanks for the kind words and I'm glad you enjoyed the videos! Love hearing discussions like the ones you gave. In response to the Discord question - I have definitely considered it, and in the past I've had experience with it. My thoughts on the matter are that I shouldn't really do it until I have an audience that can sustain it - so if my videos get more popular one day and it feels right, I'd love to start one up. If I start it up early I know it won't be quite as effective as I'd want, haha.

2025-02-12 11:38:35 +0000 UTCThank you for doing this series. It's one of my all-time favorites and it's been a blast to have you react to it! I could probably talk about this show for longer then it's total run-time, specially the ending bits, but who has time for that? xD One thing I do wanna highlight that I always really liked about the "alternate universe" thing is how it's explicetly a metaphore for being stuck in "What if's, if only's and maybe's". The universes are created by their minds, them imagining how things could have been different if something was just a little bit different. Like "What if Kamina was just a bit more selfish?", suddenly he would have not died since he wouldn't have faught for everyone etc... I think it's easy for us to get trapped in this kind of thinking, it can manifest in regret of wishing we had done something differently or it can turn into dreaming of a reality that we could actually achieve, but instead of stepping forward and getting there, we just dream and wish for it. The answer to this question that the show provides is "You choose the reality you wish to see!", now obviously taken out of context this can be seen as toxic, but in the context of the show and in the way it's clearly meant, the point is more that even though Kamina died, you can choose to view it as him living on inside you, that way you can move on without the regret, or that instead of just wishing that you would take that next step forward, you can make that a reality by taking the next step! On a different note, I was wondering if you have considered setting up a Discord server? I can think of dozens of reasons not to xD but I also know it's kinda a standard thing for reaction channels to do, so was curious to your stands on it?
