😳 If You Have Ever Been Frustrated With Us for Forgetting something? PLZ READ THIS.

Hey Sushi Squad,

We wanted to take a moment to talk to you all from the heart, just us being real with you for a sec..

If you've ever wondered why we sometimes mix up a character, forget a plot point, or miss a detail you caught instantly… we hear you, and we want to explain where we're at.

Between the two of us, we're actively watching anywhere from 5 to 10 ongoing anime every single week. Most have hundreds of episodes, dozens of characters, layered arcs, power systems, political factions, and their own internal rules. We rotate shows daily — one or two series today, two or three different ones tomorrow, another the day after that — and each one drops new characters, new episodes with new cliffhangers we have to hold in our heads until next week.

Here's the closest comparison we could come up with:

Imagine picking up Harry Potter, Game of Thrones, The Hunger Games, Dune, and The Hobbit, and reading exactly 25 pages of one, then switching to the next, then the next. Do that two or three times a day, every day. Then next week, read the next 25 pages of each one. Remember who betrayed who. Remember the magic system. Remember the lore. Remember the foreshadowing.

That's basically what we're doing — and we want you to know we are genuinely trying our best. And we hope you have noticed our improvements and efforts!

We read every Patreon comment. We read the notes our mods send us. We go through recaps. We do our homework before we hit record. None of that is lost on us, and we're so grateful for everyone who helps keep us sharp and informed.

But we're human. Mistakes are going to happen. We're going to forget a name, mispronounce something, or miss a callback, and when that happens, we just ask for a little patience and grace. We may never be perfect, but we promise we're showing up, putting in the work, and loving every minute of this journey with you.

Thank you for sticking with us, for correcting us kindly, and for making this community what it is. We wouldn't be doing this without you. Stay up and stay blessed.

With love,

Ron + Michelle aka Rice & Ginger.

How entitled do you have to be to get frustrated at other people’s reactions šŸ˜‚ let these two experience these shows how they like

I subscribed just for the bleach reactions and the amount yall post and react to is insane so I have no problem with you missing or forgetting something. I'm here for the vibes šŸ˜Ž

Andy00 Ā· April 20, 2026

Don't worry, your reactions are genuine and funny, just don't neglect your health by giving us so many reactions. It's normal to always forget the stories behind each anime. Besides, if you forget something, we'll always have Michelle's intelligence, who can deduce everything that happens in an anime. 🤣🤣🤣

gdnsx Ā· April 20, 2026

i see no problem with that. i never understood how people even remember names or most small details quickly to begin with lol. although, no hate of course but you cant really compare reading to watching anime. books are way more detailed. not just that but you cant compare those 5 books since they're like the top dogs of their own category of books.

dont even trip about it. 99% of the things you miss or forget are the same things we missed on our first watch through.

DJMattyD Ā· April 19, 2026

Its no big deal at all guys! I saw so many people saying "how did you miss Koala reveal?" The card came up for half a second and even if it stayed for a while most people are not going to remember her. All the people getting on you about it live and breath one piece (as do i lol) but the average viewer is not going to remember her, she's an irrelevant character until now. I would say though maybe pause on title cards for characters introductions because sometimes they go fast and contains a lot of info! Love the reactions, keep it up and sending love!

Mario Garcia Ā· April 19, 2026

I think they missed it because for some reason the title card goes by super quick. Less than 1 sec. Maybe each time a title card appears for a new character they should pause and read it carefully

Well i think sometimes u guys forgot the rules u guys has made that to pause when to talk or say your opinion or concern,i notice when u guys forget that u guys missed a important plot or script..i think on behalf of concern Patreon i can say that we know u trying your best to juggle everything, but the one that u missing sometimes the plot or script that we were very excited to see how u guys react or respond to. That's why sometimes its frustrating because either u guys brush it off or u guys take it too lightly. All and all u guys doing great were sorry if sometimes we can be pain in the ass,but we are very dedicated to Rice and Ginger. Just remember nobody hate u guys,we wont be here and spending money if are aren't. We just love anime and u guys so much that's it. Keep up the good work guys ;3

I feel you and I understand. I know some people are real sticklers about that, but a lot of us understand what you mean when you mix something or someone up. I see the vision, I get the confusion. Stay doing what you’re doing , even if you stayed locked in a mistake is bound to happen. āœŒšŸ¾

The CulturedGentleman Ā· April 18, 2026

Here is the truth of the situation as I see it. First let me just say that I personally dont really have an issue. Its more funny to me than anything. I do however find it a little annoying when some stuff are obvious or stuff that is like the very core of the story get overlooked. That kinda defeats the purpose of a reaction...cause ur not following the story itself so ur confused when stuff happens. feel me? I also think ur taking too much on yourselves and trying to please too many people at once but thats for you guys to decide. From an outsider's perspective guys, at the end of the day its your channel and your reactions. You choose the amount of shows you decide to watch at the end of the day. People are gonna join the patreon expecting you to give a certain quality reaction to their favorite shows. After all, isnt that why we all sub? Only you guys can decide whether you are gonna keep going as is, having to apologize to us the fanbase for not remembering stuff, or find a way that corrects the problem like dropping some shows to focus on others, or another solution I dont see at this moment writing this. You guys choose to read subtitles too...which I get is what most people want, but that also adds to it because you are reading and not following most of the time. My point is...you guys choosing to be a reaction channel has pros and cons. U get the privelege to have more time on your hands and work from home and watch anime for work and stuff like that. Stuff like this and the sub/dub debate I would say are the cons. You have to decide for yourselves what kind of reaction channel you are. And people are gonna decide whether or not they stay or go and if they stay, for how long they do.

Kris Ā· April 18, 2026

People shouldn't be giving a hard time. But how can you watch that many shows at once and be invested. Could help if you were not watching so many at a time. js

tris273 Ā· April 18, 2026

I mean constructively explaining that Koala was shown for 2 minutes in the last 700Eps od one piece is ok if not anyone else has already commented. But scrolling into commens with 70% ppl being mad at the subtitles or that they havnt seen or gotten it was embarassing for me as a one piece ultra.

You guys need to come up with a penalty system for Patreons. I see some people getting away with spoiling or straight-up being disrespectful and hating on Ron or lusting over Michelle. I understand that's your revenue we're talking about, but there are a small few who comment on almost every post and always try to ride the line of telling spoilers or being rude then apologizing only when they get backlash

T
The CulturedGentleman Ā· April 18, 2026

They lust over her??? Can you give an example cause Ive never seen it

M
Mavoal Ā· April 18, 2026

yeah it ain't deep, That is the positive of patreon supporters, they can remind you if you forget details, the problem is there are some people who take offence if you don't remember everything or don't clock easter eggs, which is weird and not right, coz nobody can clock every single thing,,, maybe i am in the minority, but i don't mind if reactors or my friends don't clock details, coz i love pointing the easter eggs, don't let this people get you down about missing some details, some of us love to explain stuff we lovešŸ˜…šŸ˜…plus to your credit, it's not that bad, you guys already clock on so much details

S
Stew Ā· April 18, 2026

"Oh my god, you didn't notice that Koala, the woman Sabo was talking to, was the same Koala saved by Fisher Tiger?!?!?! That was so easy to spot after I read a Reddit post online about it. I can't believe you didn't notice. Why are you even watching One Piece?" It's so funny when viewers don't get the EXACT reaction they wanted, and now they're salty. We season our food with your tears!!!

R
Rja831 Ā· April 18, 2026

I completely understand and this is why from the beginning since you guys started reacting to Naruto and even before that I always tried to say not to watch more then 4-5 shows at once for this exact reason cuz I knew you guys would struggle to remember all the details. Anime’s are way to detailed heavy to just spam a bunch of different shows at once in my opinion.

You guys are good. Everything is fine. I personally think you guys are doing phenomenal. Dont have any complaints. One thing though is the constant pausing just to figure out your theories when its about to explain it or reveal it. And it takes from the reaction we are waiting for. But not that big of a problem

T
The CulturedGentleman Ā· April 18, 2026

They cant know when to pause watching for the first time. And not stopping when they have a thought is gonna make them forget what they had to say plus more stuff can also get revealed leading to them forgetting way more.

J
Jose Ayala Jr Ā· April 18, 2026

Dude don’t apologize, yall have some of the best content and your reactions are why we are here. Like you said we’re human we make mistakes and so do yall but that’s no reason for us to complain. In fact I think it’s funny when yall make mistakes because I know that yall are crossing your wires. Yall do you and take care of yourselves and most of all enjoy your trip.

J
James A Ā· April 18, 2026

Ron, I think you’re exactly right. You guys need to change the way that you’re watching anime. Just take one day and binge 10 episodes of the same anime so you can stay on topic and on point. Then do the same thing with a different anime the next day. Have your editor chop it up and still give us those episodes on the same days that you have been normally. Nobody cares that you’re gonna be wearing the same clothes. End of the timeline is not correct. You’re not like an anime news network your reactions don’t have to be less than 24 hours old. I’ve gone back and watched an entire reaction playlist that you did from two years ago and got the same enjoyment out of it as I did from the one yesterday. You guys could binge anime for two days a week and not have to do anything else for the rest of the week.

G
Gjermund Norum Bugge Ā· April 18, 2026

Dw guys, even the comments that come off as harsh are most likely not intended that way or well thought out in that sense. 99% of people would understand its hard, you don't have to explain yourself to be honest. People are always gonna complain, I also thought it was a bit strange for example with one piece when u forgot that people lost their memories after turning to toys, but its not like its a big deal or it will affect ur experience in any way. you will get reminded by the show in time anyways

Don’t worry about it too much guys. I think you’re great and I love your reactions and discussions!!! I’m especially here for your jojos and bleach reactions and those have been REALLY fun to watch. I think your One piece reactions are great, especially with your fun predictions and theories - even if they’re crazy, I still really enjoy them hahaha. Even when you’re overthinking the plot, it still makes for a great discussion and reaction to watch. So please, you’re doing great and just keep it up!

Mando23 Ā· April 18, 2026

I’m watching 6 anime’s right now and it’s very hard to remember consistently. There’s only a few anime’s I know like that back of my hand. But right now I notice it’s also way harder to get invested into a character with all the jumps. Btw on a side not I highly recommend Hajime no Ippo. Without a doubt one of the best anime ever made. Especially if you need gym motivation.

Merfhew Ā· April 18, 2026

If you feel the issue is caused by watching too many shows, wouldn't the solution be to watch fewer shows simultaneously? I don't really have a horse in this game, as it doesn't bother me, but if the complaints people were making are weighing heavily on your mind, perhaps temporarily dropping 1 - 3 shows would be the right approach. You could either leave that gap as-is, or you could fill it with additional episodes of the shows you continue.

I'm sorry if this upset some people but... Ron and Michelle, it's not that deep!!! It is anime!!! An enjoyable thing!!! Not nuclear science or world wide catastrophe's solution meting!!! I understand that it is important to pay attention to catch everything and follow the stories and yapping during the episodes sometimes makes you miss some details/clues but that's why there's a pause/play/rewind button 🤣 It is a reaction channel, and in my opinion... I don't understand why would someone pay to watch you react, if they don't like how (precisely) you react, that would be the dumbest thing ever... If I want to watch the anime itself, I just do it, (and even then, I pause and rewind if I don't understand something) but here, the point is to watch your reactions, so... for me, no need to apologize or explain yourself šŸ˜ā¤ļø

Maybe for you two (Michele & Ron) this feels like a heavy burden or makes you feel bad toward the Sushi Squad, but all I can say is just relax. If we look at it from the perspective of the risks involved in your current job, dealing with someone’s dopamine issues toward you is actually pretty exhausting, not to mention the radiation from laptops, lights, cameras, n so on. On screen, your job looks fun, but managing all the other aspects turns out to be pretty tough too. Thanks for sharing, and go eat some ice cream (sorry, randomšŸ™ƒšŸ˜‚)

Kevin Williams Ā· April 18, 2026

This is not meant to be offensive but I always looked at y’all as the ā€œSolo Levelingā€ of reactors. You bring good energy but your not overly analytical and you don’t really have a good memory for the small details. In comparison to reactors like Heatah and Hustla or Boldcast. (If you watch all three of the reactors reaction to 663 it’s almost a night and day difference in terms of the ability to analyze things on the spot and even during the discussion.)

Yaz Ā· April 18, 2026

I’m going to be honest, it’s not you guys, it’s the commentators. You have some rude AF people in here at the moment. I’m sure it’s just their sense of humour, watching you every day must make you feel like friends and some people like to rip on their friends, but some of the comments I’ve read recently have left me speechless. I don’t think anyone would pay for content they don’t like, so try not to take it to heart. You are human, I’ve been watching anime for decades and I still mess up characters - you’re doing great!

N
Nessa J. Ā· April 18, 2026

I did always thought that you guys were not very good at remembering things - especially Ron, I think Michelle is doing better, which is cool because you can really see that you guys are a team - so like some of us said, you should watch less shows and really focus on maybe 4-5 series (2 long ones/3 short ones for example). Also, I have noticed that sometimes, you guys seem a lot more stressed about the reaction itself than about the story... Which could be explained by the amount of pressure that people put on you and also, maybe, your own pressure to PLEASE people. Don't be scared to speak out your opinions, even if it's controversial, who cares, people will get over it. Considering the difficulty with which you have to remember a lot of information all at once (understandable), you should be able to find solutions, such as : - Keeping a notebook in which you write what happened at the end of every single episode, like Blind Wave do; - Keeping a tab opened that you can check DURING the episode, maybe on a second screen, with every single character introduced in the show that you are watching, with their names, age, abilities maybe, something visual, not a table, like Semblance of Sanity do; - Watching way less series at the same time to be able to remember more details and provide better quality reactions, like Filmbuff does; - Doing a little recap before every single episode, to remember where we at, like Ralaz do (you do that sometimes but most of the time, your introductions are more fun and chaotic than anything haha) I don't think that not remembering major information or events is a terrible thing, but I do think that you should match that characteristic of yours to your job, with the help of a few tricks here and there to help you out and make you feel better. You've improved a lot already, though, so don't be sorry.

Z
Za Ā· April 18, 2026

Hey guys, I totally understand, we are humans we do forgot things then and there. But I think you guys should lower the amount of shows you guys watch so you guys can actually remember the shows you watch way better. I think also especially since you are watching the big three right now, since those already generate huge fandom there's really no need to watch that many others to be honest. I think personally too lowering the amount of shows you watch will save you content for the future. I can understand the pressure to watch a lot of shows right now because there are so many good shows airing right now but I think a lot of us would want you guys catch more details in shows and try to understand it better. AY nothing but love, appreciate you guys for being honest with the community you guys are awesome.

Billy Ā· April 18, 2026

Tyrell D. Rose Ā· April 18, 2026

(Yapping time) I think this channel has really improved for me. I'm going to talk about One Piece specifically. So, I was subscribed to you for 3 years, and there was a moment when I considered unsubscribing from your channel because I just wasn't feeling it anymore. I thought you weren't as locked in as I wanted. Sometimes I got the impression that you didn't care that much. The discussions were not that interesting to me. Idk, I just didn't feel it anymore, and I was subscribed to too many channels at the same time, that's hard to follow. So by elimination, I eventually unsubscribed here WITHOUT announcing it to the world or complaining even once. Obviously, the majority was enjoying it, and I'm a normal adult, if I don't like something, I just leave. I resubscribed when I had more time to watch some reactions a couple of months later, and today I think this channel is genuinely one of the best. You guys probably make me laugh the most on the One Piece reactions. I believe you've never been more locked in than you are today. The discussions are nice, and I really feel like I'm looking forward to your reactions. You guys are also more active with your community. This channel has had the best improvement imo, not because of the editing, thumbnails, or adjustments like that, but mainly because of you yourselves. Every single aspect has improved, and of course the editing, the thumbnails, etc... I see your work, and I wanted to appreciate the effort. I learned that it's important to express these kinds of feelings to creators you support, especially in situations like this. You guys have been ROASTED in the comments lmao, personally, if you don't remember something, I just don't care. It's not like you can do anything about that, it's not your fault, I can see that you're trying really hard, and that's enough for me.

I think most of us understand you guys, don’t worry about it too much. Sometimes it could be momentarily frustrating in a humorous way though, to watch you guys miss something lol. But you guys do a good job of reading the comments and seeing what you guys missed. Don’t stress it guys. Btw not sure if you guys have discussed this anywhere, but when can we expect invincible? Not trying to rush I just haven’t been keeping up lately maybe you guys have a full schedule :).

Quality > quantity. We understand that reacting to 10 different shows at a time brings in the money, but having quality reactions is what keeps the core loyal fanbase engaged and supportive long term. I think your personalities is what’s carrying your reactions HARD, you guys are very likable but it is frustrating seeing other reactors take notes of names and plot points while you guys just react for the vibes ✨ We appreciate your guys decision to elevate the audiences experience and acknowledging the criticisms though.

Thamor Ā· April 18, 2026

I'll just say don't worry about it. One thing I do understand from reactors is if you need that feel to talk over the show to comment (good that you usually pause to do it). That will mess up with you following the show compared to if you just watched in silence and focused. Ps. Well you can always read the manga...which you guys of course do for every show (sarcasm).

K
Kayso Ā· April 18, 2026

It's completely fine to not remember every single thing we are all human. People think cuz y'all are reactors you have to overperform. People need to kindly remind them of things they missed, no need to be rude about it its not that deep. Getting frustrated over it is crazy. Even the toy soldier thing that people were trippin about, I thought y'all forgot about it since you forgot their names (Sai, Boo, Abdullah) my mind even drew a blank that scene cuz its been so long since I watched Dressrosa lol. On the other hand there's things that you guys even point out in One Piece that I never caught before or didn't remember. It's all good you guys are great keep it up. Keep being you. And don't worry Ron, I know you don't read the manga šŸ˜‚ you wouldn't do such a thing

M
Mr.popiah Ā· April 18, 2026

Maybe it’s better to have a notebook and note down important stuff that you think you’d forget? That way you won’t miss out. Or cut down the number of shows you’re watching. Cuz if you’re just churning out reaction videos for the sake of subs, it really defeats the purpose. Bc we’re here to enjoy the reaction with you. But it’d be impossible if you can’t remember anything important.

E
Enryu Ā· April 18, 2026

Hey honestly, whats most important for reactions for me is just authenticity, like y'all just watching a show and we here to see how y'all react to it or watch with y'all. I think trying to overly take notes or force yourself to remember will kinda take away from that authenticity. Just be yourselves that is why we love watching you guys react. Pls don't let vocal minority mess with y'all's vibes, y'all awesome

J
Jonny Ā· April 18, 2026

Ron and Mich, it doesn't matter what you do, people will complain. You will have people probably saying you didn't react the right way when Big Mom ship appeared in Dressrosa recently for example. Any important details you forget can easily be corrected. Unless it's something outright egregious you don't remember, I don't think there needs to be much complaints. A lot of us didn't remember everything on a first watch through and some people have better memories

Did you ever consider writing down notes on important characters, events, powers, etc. when watching anime? I think this will really help a lot in watching anime. Take a look at the channel of The Normies for example, they barely miss anything while watching cause one of them is taking down notes on names, powers, etc. Hope you consider this in the future. Stay blessed Sushi Squad!

M.A.D TV React Ā· April 18, 2026

Hey Ron & Michelle, Just wanted to send you some love and support. Honestly, the fact that you sometimes forget things, mix things up, or get details wrong is part of the charm of your reactions. It makes everything feel real, human, and genuine. It also creates interaction with the community, because people get to share info, clarify things, and be part of the journey with you. Rice & Ginger are family. There will always be some people who correct things in a harsh way, but I really hope they understand that this is not a contest or an exam. It is just people sharing information together, and it should be done kindly. Personally, I love when you get something wrong, because then I cannot wait to see your reaction in the next video when you realize it and correct it. That is part of the experience of watching reactor content and sharing that journey with you. It is the same with theories. I love seeing you come up with ideas and scenarios that end up being completely far from what actually happens. That is part of the fun too. So honestly, full support to both of you and the whole team. From my side, I would say: keep making mistakes, keep coming up with wild theories, keep being yourselves. A lot of love to you guys! ā¤ļø

I can totally tell you are both doing your best! I think most of the comments so far have said all the right things, so I don't think I have to beat a dead horse. Just know that there are plenty of understanding people in your Sushi Squad who are always willing to help. I'll do anything I can too, especially if its Japanese language related! And keep in mind you can always cut back the number of shows you are watching if it gets to be too much. Nobody will be mad about that. Love ya'll! šŸ’–

Wsgyan Ā· April 18, 2026

Exactly why I said it shouldn’t be a big deal seeing you guys forgetting things we should just laugh cause we know you guys aren’t stupid and actually really try to remember stuff talk are humans nobody can remember everything in their first watch especially when reacting to 10 shows at once !

P
Phyllis Ā· April 18, 2026

I hope people can be a little kinder and understand that people make mistakes, forget stuff etc. We know you guys are doing your best, and mods and patreon members help you with recaps. You guys are doing a great job! Try not to let the rude comments get to you! Love you guys! ā¤ļø Sending hugs your way! 😊

I’d be willing to help moderate Bleach if you need it. I’m already a twitch mod for AliAnimus but she’s caught up on Bleach now so I just mod her Shippuden streams. I have every character name memorized and am good at reminding of little details or foreshadowing pieces from hundreds of episodes ago. I probably know more about Bleach than most mods and that’s not a flex it’s just my favorite anime since I was 13 back in 06. I know you guys get a lot of comments especially for Bleach and I know it can get overwhelming so if you need an extra mod please let me know guys! Willing to help out for the passion of it. Big fan as always.

Rice & Ginger Ā· April 18, 2026

yo this is super helpful! Will def keep this in mind, and talk with our current mods to see if its needed and reach out if so! thank Ken!!!!

Mason Schutz Ā· April 18, 2026

I can respect wanting to post a large variety of shows but I do hope you consider lowering how many shows you watch at once. At least then it’ll be much easier to retain information and hopefully make things easier to manage. I love you guys but if I am being honest it sometimes feels like you’re prioritizing quantity over everything else, which I know might not be your intention. There’s a lot of great shows out there so I can understand the FOMO when you see what’s all being recommended but it shouldn’t come at the risk of juggling 5-10 shows and risking not fully taking everything in because of it

D
Dominic Ā· April 18, 2026

This. Quality over quantity is the way. Would indeed be more fun for both sides without a doubt. Watching less and remembering more is more enjoyable for the viewers and the reactors. Edit: And it would be such a win-win situation for everyone to have less than 5-10 shows. As I said before a few weeks back: If you have less shows, not only can you perhaps focus better and remember better but you can perhaps even watch more in advance. Which could result in having even more free days aside from the mental health week, a great benefit.

E
EZ-3k!3! Ā· April 18, 2026

i think the issues is too many animes all at once, happened to me as well when I mixed things up watching too many shows a couple years ago. I'd suggest do more episodes per week for less shows, like 4-5 shows but with more drops each week.

Maybe watch less anime at the same time? Like, do 3 drops of the same anime until it's finished? Anyways, you do you, there's probs a reason why you guys don't do it like that šŸ¤·ā€ā™‚ļø

U
Uncancellable Reacts Ā· April 18, 2026

I think the issue here isnt that they are watching 10 plus shows the issue is that literally after one video drop going to another they forget what's going on or the plot or character names etc. so it takes away from the viewer and I'll say this on my end as a long time viewer of R&G yes the video quality has went up when it comes to transitions, effects etc. but the engagement from R&G has gone down, there are times were Ron looks like he has other things on his mind or is anxious to get the react out! And you know that's not his fault some people can't hide it and some people can't see it. But R&G I'll say this to end DO YOU people like myself will have 2 cents to say because yes we are paying for a product and sometimes products change sometimes for the best for some and worse for others, you will never make everyone happy and we as viewers don't like it we can always walk away!

R
Rice & Ginger Ā· April 18, 2026

appreciate this bro! You have been part of the squad since OG days! So i respect this! I will say though, i do disagree with the engagement part! I feel more locked into the big shows we are watching than ever before.

R
RedEyeItachi Ā· April 18, 2026

100Rainy Ā· April 18, 2026

Hate that you had to explain yourselves like this, y'all are doing just fine trust. Some of us expect way too much from you both and want you to immediately lock onto every single detail no matter how big or small. Never mind that y'all got like 5 or 6+ different anime going on rn. Half of the time something you missed in the moment will get re-explained a few eps later and with even more detail. So it's really not that serious if you forgot one or two side characters. Most shonen anime are literally designed to repeat the same info over and over anyway.

A

Bro are people actually salty becuz of KOALA?🤣 I refuse to believe so

E
Erik Matteus Ā· April 18, 2026

Is this because they didn’t figure out that she was Koala? If that’s the case then I’ve seen different people suggest it was a subtitle issue, they can just switch platforms and fix it if that’s the case. Michelle reads ahead of the manga so they already have an advantage, lol I don’t know why anyone would be actually mad that they sometimes miss stuff. You guys are really smart and make good predictions and obviously Michelle isn’t reading the manga 😭

M

ResultsPending Ā· April 18, 2026

I can bet you anything that if you were to ask any of your Patreon members or any of your fans that genuinely love your guys content if they care if you miss a detail or don’t understand something that was hinted at 2-3 episodes ago 100% of those people would not think twice about it and would just continue watching, there are some of us that would 100% love to let you know some cool little details or explain certain things to help you understand something a bit better but we all love your content and are just happy that you guys are posting a new reaction vid. You have to remember most of us watch 5-10 episodes in one sitting in the span of like 2 hours sometimes longer where as for you guys it takes a few weeks to watch the same amount of episodes, so don’t sweat it we understand completely. You guys keep doing you and don’t let anyone tell you otherwise, you guys have a crazy schedule just so that we can watch you watch shows, we appreciate you so much so don’t let anybody ruin your experience when it comes to watching these shows

Lesedi Ā· April 18, 2026

Thank you for the really calm and mature response. It's totally understandable with the kind of workload y'all have. And I think reasonable people would understand. I personally think you may be doing too many different anime concurrently, and the information overload may take away from each of the shows you're watching. I think you guys would still do great with 1 or 2 less shows (if they're ending soon) and replace those time slots with the longer running ones you may be watching now just to stay locked in and to make it easier on the mind. But I don't know how much that affects you guys with the admin and the diversity of your audience. Nonetheless, thank you for taking your community seriously and for always trying to find the best solutions ā¤ļø

gante_mist66 Ā· April 18, 2026

Tbh it’s to be expected and should be common sense that y’all would forget details here and there. Anyone who gets upset about that is just a troll. I’ve rewatched One Piece multiple times just to remember things I’ve completely forgotten and watching it with you guys has been a huge refresher as well and becomes more enjoyable so no need to apologize. Even us who watch 1 or 2 anime forget things all the time.

S
Senobia Ā· April 18, 2026

That is very fair. Coincidentally, I do indeed read like that often and keep it almost always retained but I am a total weirdo, especially with books and am not nearly as good with names in any media. I have always retained way more information reading than I have watching anything or speaking to anyone. So, you are doing just fine and killing it. That is a lot of work to put in, thank you both for continuing to do so. Don't burn yourselves out.

Zaj Ā· April 18, 2026

A lot of the time, it's stuff you're not expected to remember by the show either. But random commentors presume that "ofc they should know immediately". Yet the shows are constructed that way, and it's why they do callbacks to make viewers connect the dots. Some really on the nose through flashbacks, others refer back to stuff one needs to remember in dialogue a little bit later. And you guys are watching so many things at once too. Many ppl comment on these shows binged it all in isolation. Their experience is different.
