They said they're taking a short break before the Q&A

Brakthir

Where's the link???

Johnny Blue

I guess

Dale Ellis

Well Hey they are just suggestions, never say never ya'know

Dale Ellis

Maybe it was answered already (and doesn't necessarily mean anything for me right now since i'm a Pateron and not a youtube only watcher) but was there a reason given for the change in schedule when it comes to the anime on Wednesdays (and maybe some other shows, but i haven't noticed)? Like, on youtube you guys drop 2 eps of Champloo one week and no Bleach, then 4 Bleach eps next week and no Champloo, if i'm correct? What is the reasoning behind this? And is this something you're considering for Patreon releases in the future (please no)?

Shockzz1234

Tbf, i could be wrong, but i swear i remember the Normies saying they were gonna cutback on reacting to new things thise year in favour of more "backlog" type stuff. Anyone else remember that statement? It was made on a post here on Patreon i believe. So that's probably the reason they haven't done Frieren for example (before someone mentions Kaiju, Navi and Rana read the manga of that which is why they reacted to the anime)

Shockzz1234

The One Piece films should wait till they're caught up (whenever that is). And Gundam Hathaway makes little sense to do on it's own, you need quite a bit of knowledge from UC Gundam timeline to enjoy it imo, it's not really a standalone film. The rest are great. Especially Summer Wars. KOI KOI!

Shockzz1234

I hope to god not. The movie is fine as a kind of bookend to the og series, i wouldn't mind a reaction to that, but the Boruto series is dogwater and not worth it imo

Shockzz1234

It'll probably be after Bleach. It was Bleach vs OP on the poll after all, Bleach won (i think mostly due to it being the "shorter" one). And i think i remember Navi and Marketa saying on the One Piece manga readalong streams that they're defo going to do it, just a matter of when (the "when" in question is, i assume, some point after Bleach). I'm moreso wondering what they're gonna do with the remake? Two groups? Or just wait for the remake to come out and react to that instead of the Toei one? Or just do the Toei one? Who knows.

Shockzz1234

I see ok thanks

my new name (he him)

What are your guys favourite shows? (Doesn’t necessarily have to be something that’s been on a reaction)

Alfie Harrison

In their last Q&A. Also its on their official website.

TrapMoneyKenny

Will there ever be a reaction to One piece anime?

Jiovanni Narez

What the upcoming schedule for movies? I can’t wait for the Hunger Games!

Katie

I feel like we all want to know the real reaction question. Will Ripple- I mean The Normies ever react to one of your CEO Brad Garlinghouse's interviews or have Brad Garlinghouse come on for a guest appearance? Also when will the cryptocurrency podcast drop? No offense, but I would expect better advertisment out of the company belonging to one of the top 100 wealthiest people in the states. Wishing you the best Ripp- Normies.

Cornell Chase

Where did they answer it?

my new name (he him)

I feel like they've already answered this question several times already. All of the Normies except for Nikki Damarian, and Spidey are all full-time

TrapMoneyKenny

favorite Duo in always on in philadelphia?

TrapMoneyKenny

@Overload Don't be a cunt.

If Death Ever Slept

Watch six feet under it will change your lives

Carson Coleman

What happend to watching Batman: Under the red hood?

Sebro

Bro they are not watching any of these lol. You just wasted your time writing that

Queef Burglar

Have you guys considered some sort of revamp to how you take recommendations? What gets put towards you guys from anime perspective specifically seems to be an absolute mess somehow. I know BlindWave used to do surveys and now have a recommendation feature on their website that seems to be working wonders. Their polls have been better than ever with that system in place and even meant they were able to jump on Frieren while it was still airing which is something that never happens for them.

greenb3ar

I'm just being a good friend 🤷

Ab$tract A$p

After you guys are done reacting to rebels, are you guys gonna react to just Ashoka or Ashoka and the Bad Batch simultaneously? I feel like you could do it simultaneously without any spoilers to either show, but I would understand if that’s too much for y’all and the editors.

Kasper Holm

Honestly, I just watched the movie and I would love to see at least a reaction to the movie if that’s possible 😜

Kasper Holm

I second this, great film

Dale Ellis

Well lets see what they decide, never say never ya'know

Dale Ellis

Fixed it, it was all jumbled before because I typed it on my phone but Its corrected now

Dale Ellis

Please consider watching Promare. It's a movie. It's made by same studio, Trigger who did Gurren Lagan and Kill la Kill. And can you do it dub since the guy who voices a main character is no longer with us RIP Billy Kametz ❤️🙏🏾

Michaela Evans

Can you do at least one sports anime in dub? I suggest Kuroko's Basketball or Blue Lock; both have really good dubs in my opinion 😄

Michaela Evans

If you guys are gonna do anime polls, can you split it up into different genres? Shounen is gonna win every time and we'll never see you guys experience some romance anime as well as other genres

Michaela Evans

Have you accepted Danny Devito as your lord and savior yet?

Pavi

Sadly the majority of these would be disqualified by the limitations they set regarding “modern” anime as they stipulated it had to be within the last 5 years

Overload

Because I found your attempt at disguising your bias humorous, see my previous answer to question 1. Also once again your use of the word “everyone” is incorrect, the majority of questions on here are actually questions and not attempts at pushing for a particular show or reaction as you put it.

Overload

they won't be around long enough to finish it lmao

Brakthir

yes, welcome to the internet, where everyone has a bias? Everyone here is pushing specific shows or reactions. I genuinely don't understand the entire point behind you responding to me other than some weird gotcha??

Brakthir

bro you gotta learn how to format. Also, what the goddamn hell is your list

Brakthir

Cringe as fuck, bro.

Brakthir

Alright so since you guys will be diving into A new modern anime after Boondocks I thought I'd list some good candidates for the selection: 1. Is It Wrong To Pick Up Girls In A Dungeon or DANMACHI for short(2015)(Fantasy/Adventure/Gore/Ecchi) 2. The Dangers In My Heart (2023)(RomCom/Drama) 3. That Time I Got Reincarnated as A Slime(2018)(Isekai/Monster/Fantasy) 4. GRAND BLUE(2018)(College Life/Sports Club/Comedy/Heavy Ecchi) 5. KARAKURI CIRCUS(2018)(ACTION/ADVENTURE/PLOT TWIST & BATTLE HEAVY/DRAMA, The writing in this one is almost as good as One Piece tbh) 6. KONOSUBA (2016)(THE SINGLE FUNNIEST ANIME YOU WILL EVER WATCH, ISEKAI/COMEDY/ADVENTURE/ECCHI/FANTASY) 7. MUV LUV ALTERNATIVE (2021) (Mecha/War/Military/Action/Monster/Gore) 8. CLASSROOM OF THE ELITES(2017)( Psychological/Thriller/Drama/Slice of life/Private School) 9. 86: Eighty-Six (2021)(War/Mecha/child & teenage soldiers/Dystopian Future/Discrimination element) 10. Uzaki-Chan Wants To Hangout (2020) (College Life/Romcom/Slice of Life/Gaming/Ecchi) 11. To The Abandoned Sacred Beasts (2019) (Alternate Reality/Civil War/Monsters/Gore/Ecchi) 12. My Dress-up Darling( High School/RomCom/Slice of Life/COSPLAY/ Ecchi) 13. Macross Frontier (2008) & Macross Delta (2016) (SPACE/Mecha/Music/ Pop Idol Singers/Group/ Aliens/Ecchi)

Dale Ellis

Which do you like more Italian or Mexican cuisine

Alexis Acevedo

This is Odie: if we were ever to see you all in public, how would you like to be approached to feel safe?

Odigene

mind if I recommend a couple of shows and some movie (3 of them have 2 seasons). for shows with 2 seasons spectacular spiderman, Avengers earth's mightiest heroes, and black dynamite (the same creatures of the boondocks. for the other shows batman beyond, peacocks bel air, and fx atlanta. I would recommend Smallville but that show is looooooong. now for movie before watching the black dynamite show watch the movie, 2 batman movie (batman beyond return of the joker, and batman vs teenage mutant ninja turtles) and m night Shyamalan the happening.

Steve Harvey Dent

OK so I feel like I already asked this question but I'll ask it again anyway, what's everyone's favorite season or seasons?

Dale Ellis

They canceled it for this year

TrapMoneyKenny

Drake or Kendrick?

TrapMoneyKenny

Would you guys ever consider doing different genres of anime like romance or more comedy? Appreciate the hard work and the reactions! 😊

Daniella

I honestly think they’d enjoy it. It’s stuff they wanted to see more of in OG Naruto I do think the anime version of the movie is superior and should just watch that

Zee

Are y'all going to have patreon teir where the lady normies post feet/soles content....... asking for a friend 😁

Ab$tract A$p

100% ! there’s also something just so emotionally driven to see generations grow !

TwoNightsDisplayed

Have you guys been in a situation where you are having a personal time out in public but someone recognises you and either talks with you or takes photo but you are really in the mood. Or do you guys enjoy that kind of YouTube fame like you are cool with it and understanding it comes with being a YouTube content creator.

Sri Ram

OK First question from me anyway, I see that the movie reactions have been wildly popular on the channel nd would like to throw out some suggestions for future reaction: SCI-FI: Transformers Series in full Alien Series X Predator Series in full Starship Troopers 1 - 3 Riddick Series (Starting with Pitch Black) GREENLAND LIFE ANIME: DIGIMON the Movie ONE PIECE: STRONG WORLD YOUR NAME (SLICE OF LIFE/ROMANTIC DRAMA) ONE PIECE: FILM Z BLOOD: The Last Vampire ONE PIECE: FILM GOLD DIGIMON ADVENTURE TRI 1 - 8 Series in full(Direct sequel to season 2) PATEMA INVERTED ONE PIECE: STAMPEDE SUMMER WARS (From the same Director & Studio that did The Digimon movie & ONE PIECE Movie 6) MOBILE SUIT GUNDAM: HATHAWAY DRIFTING HOME ONE PIECE: FILM RED Most of these films can be found on Netflix just to let y'all know 😊😁😆

Dale Ellis

I don’t know, they still have 1.5 arcs and by the time that’s done 36 episode of TYBW so looking at at least another year at a minimum plus they may choose to wait until the final 12-13 episode of TYBW to be released before they start it.

Overload

Good afternoon/ evening Normies, how is everyone doing? I just wanted to start off by saying congratulations to Chris & Marketa on their bundle of joy to be as well as Rana & Tom on their engagement nd say that I wish you guys all the best & A life of happiness cuz y'all deserve it 😊😁😆

Dale Ellis

They should right? That end fight went hard 😆

Dale Ellis

Yea I hear ya, they should've started it long time ago but they said they'll start it after Bleach nd the with them skipping the fillers it won't be much longer of A wait I feel 😌🤷🏿‍♂️

Dale Ellis

For the YJ crew, did you guys expect to enjoy the show the way you are? & Would binging the DC Animated Movie Universe be a possibility since it’s in similar style to YJ Also, can we expect some Dragon Ball Sparking Zero gaming streams when it drops 🔥🔥🔥, I don’t think you guys have reacted to any of the trailer

Zee

Nothing "potentially" about it, it has to be after Bleach

Dale Ellis

Yes cuz it went crazy again this week, also hey Normies its great to talk to y'all again 😁👋🏿😆

Dale Ellis

1, I find it humorous and it’s not everybody it’s 3 including this one. 2. But you do specifically mention Frieren and even boast of its popularity over other great anime showing clear bias. 3. Indeed, 28 is not the normal episode count for a seasonal anime even at the top end. It in and of itself is an outlier yet you added it so it could be included in your example of “shorter” anime even though it would technically be longer than the majority of 2 cour seasons again showing bias. 4. Not at the moment as I’m waiting to get a ride from work. Does that answer your questions?

Overload

1. Why does it matter to you? Why are you going around on everyone's questions and commenting on them? 2. I wasn't specifically talking about Frieren here, I've made my thoughts on Frieren very clear both later on in my post and my messages to the Normies 3. I said 28 just as an indicator of seasonal show lengths on the top end. 4. Don't you have anything better to do, bud?

Brakthir

So just say that, trying to disguise it by making the upper limit of the episode count the exact episode count of the series you want seems redundant.

Overload

Will you guys be reacting to the Boruto movie and series?

TwoNightsDisplayed

Duh. They're missing out on one of the best shows to be released this year.

Brakthir

They are watching OP soon. Navi & Marketa mentions it on their OP manga live streams. They haven't said when but they are definitely watching it

Queef Burglar

How do you guys avoid spoilers to anime that you're not caught up on? Its impossible to avoid Jjk and One Piece spoilers if your on tiktok.

Queef Burglar

What upcoming show are you most excited for?

TrapMoneyKenny

I thought you were leaving?

Overload

I don’t even want to ask if you guys will watch one piece. But will you guys atleast consider putting it on a poll and letting your fans decided, who knows it might not even win.

Sonicluis

What shows do you watch in your private time you know other Normies would like or hate?

Ceezy Jeffezy

Ah, awesome! Thank you for letting me know! I’m dying for a rewatch, it’s so good!

Katie

Who would you cast in a Buffy remake? Assume there would be a similar season 1 main cast so we need a Buffy, a Giles, a Xander and a Willow

Overload

Hi shoutout to Sunday Rundown!!! Ok 1st question you guys said you plan on taking Navi on Star Wars journey Wich sounds fun and would like to see the type of outfits she comes up with anyway what’s the timeframe looking like and how ? 2nd question who plans on going to Star Wars celebration Tokyo next year we’re you able to get tickets? I’m also going to try and get tickets hopefully have an awesome Friday

Alvaro

I recall them saying on a Sunday Rundown a few weeks ago that it'll probably be a while before they could get to it, BUT I'm holding out hope!

Ashleep

They said potentially after they finish Bleach

Overload

Who do you want to be CEO at the end of Succession S4? Logan, Ken, Shiv, Roman, Frank, Gerri, Karl, Tom, Greg, Stewie, Sandi.

Shahria Chowdhury

12-28 episodes? 28 seems like a very rare and oddly specific episode count in fact I can only think of 1 series with that specific number of episodes….clearly someone is angling for a certain anime to be watched

Overload

How are you guys doing? Just outside of work and reacting, it's good to acknowledge the people behind the stuff that brings us entertainment. ♥️

Jackie Gibson

Do you guys all have day jobs aside from reacting? Rana is getting married when will everyone else get married? Yes mom questions haha.

my new name (he him)

U guys may have already addressed this, but will you ever react to the One Piece anime? Also, will you guys ever do a tier video, ranking all the shows you have watched on the channel so far?

CDS

Will you ever do a show tier list similar to blindwave. Maybe live action first then anime as a separate list.

Christopher simeon

When are you guys going to react to The Marvels?

Jerrick Payton

Would you guys ever watch snowfall? it’s a great show

jay

What are some of your favorite shows you’ve ever reacted to? And are Sense8 and The 100 on that list? lol

Dani

Hey! It's been a hot minute. Shoutout to everyone! So, lets get to some fun subjects. Anime polls! I think the last big one had some...feedback, lets say. I wanted to give my thoughts and potential suggestions for future anime polls. Of course, there is a lot more that goes into this, y'all are a business as well and we don't know the inner workings so this is an outsider looking in! 1. Shorter anime polls. A lot of great options get lost in the shuffle when anime polls with 10-20 shows get dropped. I would love to see much smaller anime polls in the future, maybe 5-7 shows max and perhaps the runner-up gets a guaranteed reaction 2. More thematic polls. I know y'all have been doing some themes but I'd really love polls with ZERO battle shonen on them. You have a large audience of fans who would love to see you guys react to more non battle shonen and lets be honest, battle shonen end up winning most of your anime polls. Other genres deserve a chance! 3. SHORTER SHOWS PLEASE. There are so many great, quality anime shows out there that are 12-28 ish episodes out there that can be knocked out quickly instead of having one large huge show take up a slot (Bleach, FMAB etc) One last note: I'm curious what determines an autoslot for certain anime shows? For example, Frieren has been a huge anime hit last season, pretty much every reaction channel I know has watched it and loved it. It has also been #1 on myanimelist for 5 months plus now and most new hype seasonal shows are #1 for a few weeks (for example, Oshi No Ko was #1 for about 3 weeks). I would have assumed it would have been an autoslot considering its general popularity (and me shilling the fuck out of it). Sorry for the huge ass question!

Brakthir

Will game stream Friday's ever come back? and if it does will you guys stream Baldur's Gate 3? I know a few of you may have played it

Watchdog

do it fart?

Joey Brock

Would you guys be interested in doing a ranking of the shows you've reacted to? I know Blind Wave does it every year.

Anansi

Sorry if this has already been addressed and I missed it but will y’all be reacting to Shogun?

Katie

Can you guys tell us the story about how all of this stuff - ie the normies - was created ? You’ve probably covered it. But I’ve been a long time YT sub and recently got addicted to your office reactions so now I’m on this ting

Kireeti Goat

Any plans to watch What If season 2 and Echo? And what about the upcoming Star Wars series called The Acolyte? That one premieres Tuesday June 4th with two episodes.

Aldo Gonzales

Based off of a possible throwaway comment from Mickey, are you guys really going to do some M. Night Shyamalan movies? If so, starting with 'Old' would be a good choice, there aren't many reactions of it

iJashin

Can you please create a Dub playlist on YT so those of us who only watch dubs can go through them rather than having to click on each anime covered to see if it is sub or dub? Due to my disability I only watch dubs. Thank you

Angela Stafford-Cook

i have a question!!! can you folks do a NormieCon in LA? maybe meet with The Reel Rejects??!!

erin bodhi

So X Men 97, any plans to react to it anytime soon?
