HH14 Full Reaction

this was supposed to go up yesterday but im gonna post it today and the edited one later in the day. we might be having issues with hh which is why im naming it this way, im trying not to use the full name, because some reaction channels have been hit with copyright takedowns on patreon, and some have been deleted immediately, and we got some notification to contact patreon regarding some issue. so hopefully we figure out whats the problem and we鈥檒l handle it then

Don't watch the show but wanted to comment on this. I'll be honest, I've always been wary of your channel because of how much you include from the episodes. It's extremely undefined what's considered fair use under the transformative display of the work. I think because you have so much intro you have been undetected by bots, but I don't know if the hefty discussion both before and after the episode would hold under human scrutiny. I fear they might see what you have as a market substitute -- despite the low opacity people can essentially watch the full episode through your reactions (audio constantly playing too since it's through speakers rather than headphones). Combine this all with the fact that, as others have said, Japan doesn't have fair use unlike the US (which YT's copyright is derived from) and it could lead to some serious legal action in the future, not necessarily for you directly, but I wouldn't be surprised if the whole anime reaction area of things changes drastically in the future. That being said, it's worked surprisingly well for your channel so far despite how huge you are views-wise. It hasn't gone there yet, and usually a counter claim is enough, but with the recent crackdowns on anime reactions, who knows. I wonder if this will become a big thing in the future, like with how torrenting slipped under the radar for a while but then became extremely cracked down on in certain countries. You guys film a LOT of shows and have a life outside this, so you're probably really busy but I highly recommend this video from today from an anime reactor on the whole situation: https://youtu.be/OlyMuE2_9IU It's a bit long, so if you do decide to watch it then obviously feel free to take breaks and not do it all at once, but it's very illustrative of the whole anime reaction / fair use / copyright / transformative media topic and explains stuff you need to be careful of. I also recommend to other patrons who are curious on the topic (and let me know if there's anything in the video that you think is wrong / you disagree with, am always up for a discussion)

You should go back to having long intros. Maybe put the previous episodes discussion as the intro. The youtube robots check the first minutes a lot more than the middle and end. I think that's the reason why the first 7 episodes are still up on youtube while these are having trouble before they are even public.

If you're afraid of having trouble with patreon, it could be safer to post only links to episodes instead of embedding them into your post. I've also seen someone that was using a google doc with all the links in it and they would update/post the google doc whenever there's a new upload. It's all extra steps for the users, so it's not the best for us, but it could be safer for your patreon.

Unfortunately, there are a lot of selfish people out there. I've seen some nasty comments on other Patreon and YouTube channels. Certain viewers are open about wanting the reactors to risk copyright strikes instead of being slightly inconvenienced by a few extra steps.

Upload the videos to Google Docs or Vimeo and provide the link here. Change the name of the show completely to something like GxK or Our Boys or FindxFind. Some thing we鈥檒l all know that鈥檚 in no way similar to the original name. Just some ideas

Oh yeah, their own tags are worth 3 points. So everyone at the start of the game already has 3 points. So I guess the possible combination are: Your tag + your target's. Your tag + 3 other people. Your target's + 3 other people. And the last one is 6 other people. The last two are if you lose your own tag.

I've seen other reactors say that even posts that include the name of the show and not any actual content was flagged. The work around I've seen is to just not use the actual name of the show and abbreviate it. From what I've seen it appears they just blindly copyright claimed anything containing the name of the shows under their catalog which is dumb.

If this is true copyright stuff is really getting egregious. As a long time viewer of reactions I can understand media companies striking footage of the show, but just the name? Seriously??

Yeah a lot of anime reaction channels on Patreon were hit last week with copyright strike. HH, JoJo's bizzare adventures, demon slayer, Naruto were given copyright strike as far as i am aware. Japan doesn't have fairuse doctrine in their copyright law so probably that is why this issue arose in first place.

Good morning from New York. Yeah, it seems a lot of Patreons got hit by the copyright wave.I can鈥檛 say I鈥檓 too surprised though it was bound to happen eventually.
