COVID-19: Updates from Normieland

Hello everyone!

We hope everyone is taking good care of themselves in these trying times, both physically as well as mentally and emotionally. Social distancing and #QuarantineLife are hitting all of us hard, but we're all grateful that thanks to technology we can stay in touch in real time. If you haven't done so yet, please arrange facetime dates with your friends and family. Additionally, there are several channels in our discord to help you cope with the surreal time we have to push through. Our mods have created #covid-19 channel for discourse about the topic, #serious-discussion to vent about world news, and we also have #lets-talk if this or any situation in your life affects you mentally and emotionally. Please join our welcoming online community so we can all go through this together! 

We also wanted to elaborate a little bit on the state of our current operations. Right now, all of us are on home-office. We meet at most twice a week for a limited amount of time to watch shows that are running low on backlog. Only people who are a part of specific reaction are allowed in the office. We've encouraged all of our employees to self-quarantine and interact with very limited amount of people in person. We've also increased the amount of livestreams on our gaming channel, so if you're ever down in the dumps, join us at Normies Gaming!

We are doing what we can to ensure your entertainment, as we understand the need for our service rises especially at times like these. We cannot offer you a cure for actual fever, but we're happy to guide you through your cabin fever as you're stuck in the house alone (or with people you love, but now more than often find yourself wanting to strangle them). 

With all this being said, there may be a decrease in the frequency for some reactions. Naruto Shippuden will not be triple dropped regularly at the end of the month to ensure continuous releases and minimal in-person interaction on our end. We will strive to release all other reactions on a one per week basis, however there might be some rare cases when a reaction will be skipped. To be better informed on these changes, please keep up with our Monday schedules we post here on patreon, facebook and YouTube community.

We're working on some new content in blog format that will be published throughout the coming weeks on our website, so if you want to know more about how we're managing during quarantine, please do check those out! <3

Best wishes, 

The Normies

when covid messes with the economy, I'm not mad. When the covid messes with my favorite restaurants, I'm not mad. When the covid messes with my favorite bars, I'm not mad. But now...this! This makes me mad!!! (not at you guys of course).

first worlds problems.... people around the world are dying and you're complaining about not being able to watch your show 👏👏

Neiro Hellsing · March 28, 2020

How do you request what kind of anime to react to? Cause I really wanna see you guys react to Hellsing or more like the book, Hellsing Ultimate.

Sky Reach · March 28, 2020

if you pledge $100/month you can request they watch the first episode of any series. They do these request videos once a month. they do the request videos in the order they are received. They might continue the show if, a majority of the normies like the episode and the video gets a lot of views and likes. However they do ask upfront not to request anything with sexual content or gore, so Hellsing might be too extreme. Alternatively whenever they finish one of the anime they are currently watching they will run a poll to see which shows get added to the wheel to choose their next anime.

Normies, on behalf of your normal, logical fans, I apologize for the comments made by your terribly selfish, immature, spoiled brat anime fans. You deserve better than those twats.

It's ridiculous, I seriously don't get it -- are they all tweens???

DAki · March 26, 2020

As long as NS gets two a week for as long as it can then I’m good 😂

b
bits · March 26, 2020

Also, based on the comments I'm reading above, I request you stop posting any shippuden for 3 weeks. Take a nice long break. Long enough for some of these commenters to reflect on their insane demands and get their priorities straight, ayiyi.

Mark Stein · March 26, 2020

I think they should do it for a month

b
bits · March 25, 2020

Don't worry about falling behind, we all understand. And seriously, we will survive without the reactions if you all need to stop all together. I had an idea too - if you need to do a reaction with social distancing, you could Brady Bunch it, all watch seperatly or in pairs and then box your faces together.

Bello Gee · March 25, 2020

Take care boys. In these troubling times we have to make sure to wash our hands with WARM water and soap. However, you should also remember to properly wash your ass

Mike Drop · March 25, 2020

Maybe you guys can make some kind of setup where you record individually and connect over Skype ?

D
Delix Rodgers · March 25, 2020

you're going to be not reacting to some episodes? couldn't you just wait when u have time to react to them?

Bello Gee · March 25, 2020

Sending much love in Normies' direction! Even in a normal week I spend time watching and enjoying content from you all. I'm definitely doing that now since I'm at home on lockdown. Be safe and take care of yourselves. P.S. Please find Nikki something new to react to. I miss seeing her every week👍😁😍

T
Tanner · March 25, 2020

Nikki needs to react to Hannibal, Orphan Black, or 12 monkeys. Solo or with a couch crew.

D HK · March 24, 2020

In these quarantine times, your content entertains us and helps us to pass the time, but take care of yourself and I hope that you will not be pressured by some assholes from the community. This is a worldwide situation and we're all in this togethere, best regards to all Normies! Love u ♡♡♡

B
Brian Gerald Ford · March 24, 2020

Yeah definitely be safe. The MHA dub is on break so maybe you guys can stop doing MHA reactions for them until the dubs episodes come up. Also this is probably unpopular but I wouldn't mind if you guys limit the Shippuden reactions to 1 a week

B
Blackeye · March 24, 2020

Doesn’t matter they r doing shows that takes 45+ mins for 1 episode so doing naruto 2 episodes a week is still the same..it wouldn’t be fair if they do 1 episode a week cuz its only 20 min episode..2 is fair enough

You guys are doing great. Sending love from afar.

Byran · March 24, 2020

I know right now you can't triple drop shippuden but when things do go back to normal I would think you guys would make up for not being able to triple drop shippuden this month

M
Mark McKeown · March 24, 2020

Make up for it? Don't be so entitled. It's not like they're slacking, they're putting their health first. Be considerate.

T
The Worst Showman · March 24, 2020

More important to stay healthy! Thanks for the update

B
Byran · March 24, 2020

Can we get 2 triple drops of shippuden when things go back to normal to make up for not triple dropping this month

G
GoldArthur · March 24, 2020

No. Stop it

PKKite · March 24, 2020

Since your about to reach the end of the currently released My hero dub episodes due to the outbreak causing another 1 week delay minimum (no episode released the weekend that just passed). I think for your health its a easy choice to at least help cut time like naruto and delay the reactions till either the Dub starts back up or this blows over and gets better.

M
Mark Stein · March 24, 2020

Is it already available to pay to be tested so you guys can meet up without fearing each other?

Z
Zikkara · March 24, 2020

Tests are scarce. From what I've seen they'll only be administered if you have a fever and are displaying respiratory symptoms. Some places also require you be over a certain age. So basically if they aren't showing symptoms they likely can't get tested.
