Thank you for stating your concerns! And these are still the full reactions. They just need to be synced up differently. The voice actress said she will be making an updated video today but where it stands many reactors need to follow everything under law. We wish things were different too, but it's our job as creators to follow these changes.

I’m just saying. I don’t want to put this out there, but it kind of defeats the purpose of being a subscriber on Patreon if we can’t watch the full reactions anymore and have to try and sync up just to do so. Seriously, I don’t know who this voice actress is or who thought these changes was brilliant, but what I do know is that such changes can AND will lose subscribers left and right on people’s YouTube channels and Patreon pages.
The only things I can suggest is start a petition on Change.org or ignore the new rules and see what happens. Those are really the only options for the reactions community.

The reaction community has been hit hard over the last year and a half but everyone has to do what they need to in order to keep creating! We're committed to creating so if that means adapting to guidelines then we will gladly do so.
Here's the video:

And here's where she discusses the other reaction channels: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Cwuacd3qMZs

I haven’t seen such video, but honestly I can’t possibly imagine anyone would actually follow such guidelines to the letter. I say that because most people still aren’t allowed to leave their homes because of COVID-19 and because I’m pretty sure that’s mostly for YouTube reactions, because I have seen some people who show the full reaction on YouTube before.
My point is that there should be an equal balance between the site and the reactions community. Seriously, COPPA is already making things difficult for people on YouTube as is, now people can’t show the viewers what they’re reacting to? In what way is that fair to both the reactions community and the viewers/subscribers of those reactions?

Great! Yeah, any suggestions please just let us know!

I was able to sync up with your video, but if you could raise the volume just a tiny bit it would make it easier even with the time stamp.

There was recently a video released on YouTube about a voice actress talking about the new regulations the reaction community has to follow. What we will be doing is providing timestamps from now on (possibly even showing the timestamps on the TV) to follow the new format. These videos still include the full reaction, but we can't show the video or play the audio anymore due to copyright law changing.

I don’t want to sound rude, because I understand having to abide by rules and regulations, but I kind of think this style of reactions could risk losing subscribers. Specially those who’re paying above 10$ a month to watch full reactions on Patreon. People can’t see the screen and it’s tough to hear.
I honestly thought the distorted glaring style was working. You could see it relatively fine and the sound wasn’t an issue. Turning the tv screen away and lowering the volume though is hard tell what you’re reacting to exactly.
That’s just my opinion though and I hope I’m wrong about losing subscribers, because I enjoy watching AAOG videos.

Haha, like I said, shipping fuel, that was the proper reaction 😂
You brought up something that I hadn’t really thought about before. Like how Natsu represents hope, I think Lucy can represent faith.
Yeah I thought Gajeel looked older the first time I watched, but he’s actually the same age as Natsu.
Makarov being green doesn't really have any symbolism from what I know, just the color green is affiliated with being sickly.
You pointing out that you have to see things from the character's perspective is part of what I love about your analyses. Like with all kinds of stories and reviews, I'll hear criticisms about "Well why wouldn't the person do this? Why didn't they think about this?" To me, characters not thinking through all the options is what makes them more real to me, and all the characters in Fairy Tail feel so real to me. I also like what you said about adrenaline. I heard a story not too long ago about a girl who was looking for her dad and she found him pinned under his car because the jack had slipped while he was working on it. At that moment, she developed what has been named 'hysterical strength' and picked up the car off of her dad. So yeah, I love moments like this fueled by adrenaline.

Oh! Did the comment get deleted? Hm, interesting. Feel free to repost!
And yes Erza made a great decision a hard decision but a great one.

I think my previous comment got removed for mentioning the episode an arc started, if so my bad. But I really appreciated your point about Erza knowing when to retreat and it being a great sign of leadership
There is a quote often attributed to Arthur Wellesley (The guy who beat Napoleon at the battle of Waterloo among other things) "The mark of a great leader is to know when to retreat, and dare to do it"
While Erza feels perhaps more strongly for the guild and the master than anyone she is the stronger person willing to move through her emotions and lead the guild down the correct path, that is true strength imo

We'll be finding other solutions as well to make this super easy for you guys to sync up!

Ok, I will try to link it up with my tv...ty

The new regulations (as told by voice actors now) is audio needs to also be extremely quiet. We can provide the timestamps on the TV though moving forward if that is helpful.
