Are these from his "sources"?

I assume either his uncle at Shueisha or his other uncle at Pierrot.

 

[Reigen]

Just read the Kimetsu no Yaiba popularity poll-
Is there a reason why Sister Krone from The Promised Neverland got a place there?

Yup xD

 

[tirakai]

I completely forgot about that Krone Kimetsu edits, the poll definitely makes sense now.

I miss Krone.

 

[Caiops]

Didn't like at all the first chapter of Full Drive, i hate these twintail tsundere characters, and the mc looks so beta.

The art is good at least.

 

[Mammo]

Rebecca had a cameo in today's episode of BC

I assume either his uncle at Shueisha or his other uncle at Pierrot.

I wonder if his uncle knows someone's uncle, they both live in Japan after all

Forneverworld saying that Black Clover was initially only 13 episodes, but Pierrot probably decided to do 50 after seeing the massive sales boost

how fast does he think animators work?

"hey guys, we made 13 episode of this but you know what? let's make like 40 more yolo"

RxL#2 probaly almost 100k now then.

 

[Tamil]

No surprise at the fornevercringe. His biggest cringe moment was when he said OP wasn't popular at the start or something lmao.

What's also annoying is that he likes to jump on this "big 3" trend whenever a series gets serialized. He probably does it with the intention that if that series does get popular then he'll take the credit of being the first ones to predict it in being a big hit. It's sad really lol.

 

[Mammo]

that's exactly why is he doing it, he took credit for Nanatsu no Taizai, Beelzebub, Heroaca, BC popularity because he "reviewed" them

he even went and demanded that Viz acknowledge him because his "reviews" brought them subscribers

the official Viz twitter replied "LOL WUT?" and they won the internet

dude is a moron that claim he have sources in Shuiesha yet he have been wrong so many times it's hilarious/sad

Hungry Joker, Barrage, Red Sprite, Takamagahara = next big thing

AssClass, World Trigger, Dr.Stone = this will not do well, so what the point of reading it? it will be axed

not to mention campaigning "Cancelo no Yaiba" because it's boring and no one talks about it" without ever reading it himself, this is a lie btw
the real reason is Bleach was ending and he want Shuiesha to cancel something else

 

[tirakai]

I don't understand how he's ended up being one of the biggest anime youtubers, pretty much every single video he does is either glaringly wrong or plain stupid.

 

[XtrnlArdent]

I never heard about that Fornever guy, but reading what he said... it's better not to watch any of his videos lol

 

[tirakai]

The stuff posted here is a pretty good indicator of his content in general, posting a bunch of lies based on rumours while presenting them as fact, then makes up more lies when he's proven wrong to make himself look better, lies more when those lies get proven wrong and so on and so on.

This happens with pretty much every single thing he talks about as well, it's not just a one time or even an occasional thing, his whole channel pretty much revolves around making up lies about battle shounens then lying to cover up his earlier lies.

 

[Nakura]

I don't understand how he's ended up being one of the biggest anime youtubers, pretty much every single video he does is either glaringly wrong or plain stupid.

I can only assume that most of his fan base are 13 year olds, who also don't know much about the industry. Therefore, he might sound smart and 'in-the-know' to them.

 

[ShenGao]

I don't understand how he's ended up being one of the biggest anime youtubers, pretty much every single video he does is either glaringly wrong or plain stupid.

Because on Youtube anyone can become famous with anything and the more obnoxious it looks the more successful they are. 12 year old children with mics try to become "famous" and upload millions of Minecraft videos or Call of Duty/Overwatch/CS:GO loot box opening videos. Just watching the new Black Panther movie trailer gave me 25 recommended videos which are all titled "WATCH MY REACTION TO THE NEW BLACK PANTHER MOVIE TRAILER OMFG!!!" with 15 minutes of runtime while the actual trailer is just 2 minutes long.
I never watched Forneverworld's or how that guy is called videos, but I guess he has a similar style to his videos with edited pictures that make main characters look edgy (Luffy Gear 5, Goku Ultra God Whatever Saiyan, Naruto with the Sharingan), everything written in HUGE LETTERS, and some bullshit clickbait title like "XYZ IS THE NEW KING OF WSJ!"

 

[savethecat]

I don't understand how he's ended up being one of the biggest anime youtubers, pretty much every single video he does is either glaringly wrong or plain stupid.

Forneverworld and some others are mainly big because they started their YouTube careers when being a YouTube Celeb was starting become a regular thing. He was one of the few ppl making anime reviews.

And then ones like Chibireviews are popular due to quantity over quality. Chibi reviews damn near every new anime that drops every season. And uploads like 4-5 vids a day.

Then others like Jameshayson just ride the coat tails of his friends, like Fornever

 

[Avok]

Most anime and manga reviewers are pure cancer. The average poster on this forum knows more about the industry in general than every single one of them.

I hope Saiki has a boost with the live action movie.
WNL near 70k and RxL near 100k is good.

 

[tirakai]

How many chapters is Saiki at now anyway? It's the 3rd longest running series at this point not counting HxH.

 

[Mr.Fujimaster]

Rebecca had a cameo in today's episode of BC

So I was not hallucinating today when I saw the episode.
LoL

I remember that there are 264 chapters.

he uploads tons of videos about every single thing meanwhile he never actually criticize anything ever, everything is great everything is postive

because he doesn't want to alienate anyone

Most anime and manga reviewers are pure cancer. The average poster on this forum knows more about the industry in general than every single one of them.

if only douchebagchocolat would upload more often, all of them would be out of business

264, this number is higher than it should because there were times when it got 2 chapters in one issue

It would be cool if Yaiba becomes a big hit in the west, he would eat his words.
