End of September Update Post! + Previews

Hi everyone,

Thank you for all the wonderful reactions to the Kaiju No. 9 video! That ending made me laugh more than a few times while I was working on it. I think some of the effects in that video might be a Maplestar first! I’m so excited that I was able to release a video in both August and September. I’m always happy when I’m able to do consecutive releases! It’s thanks to the support of every patron that I’ve been able to keep growing this Patreon and taking on more projects.

Now, on to the September previews:

The first and second previews are for the One Piece project.

The third preview is for the short High School DxD sequel.

The fourth and fifth previews are for the Frieren project.

The sixth preview is for the Bleach project.

The next release will be Frieren, and I’m beyond excited to share it. I’ve approached this project with the utmost care to do the story and characters justice. The final linework and coloring are nearing completion, after which it will move on to compositing and final audio. You can expect the release by November at the latest, but I think there’s a good chance it’ll be ready sooner, so stay tuned!

Maple-chan, One Piece, the short High School DxD sequel, and Bleach are all moving along nicely. Maple-chan and High School DxD will also be out before the end of the year, with One Piece and Bleach following early next year. I promised more Bleach previews around October, but I decided to share one this month because I’m just so excited about the project! I’ve also noticed some of the comments, and they’re making me think another Bleach project might be in order sometime in the future. I know there are plenty of other characters people would love to see!

One last announcement: you can now find me on Instagram, TikTok, and YouTube! I’ll be sharing short edits of past projects to help spread the word about this Patreon and hopefully make even more videos for you all in the future!

It’s always exciting to finally share projects with everyone after months of working on them behind the scenes. Knowing that all of you wonderful patrons look forward to these animations and take the time to share your thoughts makes the whole process unbelievably fulfilling.

Your support gives me the opportunity to put more time and care into these animations, and I never take that for granted. There’s so much I’m looking forward to sharing, and I hope you’ll have a great time watching what’s coming!

I hope October brings you all plenty to smile about! 🎃
