From my perspective I always thought that by the end of the series Gilbert was more broken then Violet. So the ending implied that Violet with her new self worth and actualization can go on to help Gilbert heal and grow in the way that he once gave her life meaning and purpose she can now give him a similar outlook on life. I do understand what you're saying about finding him ending up under minding all of Violets work but I choose to think it was more poetic in the sense that it repeats the love and support that they both show one another. Gilberts actions were in the wrong (hiding away from his life) but that was the point, now it's Violet that can teach him to love and find purpose after the war. Teach him in the same way he had once taught her.

"and then there's a nuclear war" may be cynically realistic but did we really need to know?

Can I just say that the way you present this topic is excellent? I haven't seen half the shows mentioned in the video, but I still understood everything. Here before you blow up! 🎉

Eren becoming a monster , is a theme that was there, mikasa and love not, ther was no building her up more than a sister, And eren wasnt let die as monster, of his own stubernness, the whole futire bit, and sees everything and prosoner, him owning up that it was his own narrowminded stubernness to see no other way was the way and ehy eren should up ended. Ther needed to be a lane picked andd stick with it, which is shown by even the author mentioned how he was confused and couldnt? Ok same thing with JJK ending, the most disapointing is to have an ending undoing all the edgy final fight and making it entirely pointless, because all the dead, arent dead , suddenly, undoing even all the edge that it had at least, betraying even that. Why? That edge was something that was left and, nope nothing means anymore not even fun wit hedgy sukuna. People die if they are killed, well apearently not. And mikasa had literally nothing to do with that, armin did.

I cried so much watching violet evergarden.

great video! if you'd ever like to collab i'd definitely be interested :)

The one thing that I personally'd like to point out is that to me the ending was more about Violet being able to express herself and let her feelings be heard and how that impacts others around her. I don't think that all her development was wasted. I think she went for what she desired the most and acted to make it happen. Something she wouldn't had even dreamt of doing before...

I agree the ending is kind of stupid. I guess the theme about the ending was Gilbert trying to be the righteous failed martyr, and since he failed to be the martyr, he reduced into this shell of a person he was. I like to think the movie WANTS to reflects on Episode 8 where Violet was in the same position as he is in the movie. While in episode 8, Violet needed to realize that society accepts her and forgives her. And then in the movie Violet is now able to take the role is as Society (I guess?) and is able to forgive Gilbert. The ending was really dumb, but a lot of the show's main movers unfortunately died in that Kyoto bombing while back, so it's unfortunate circumstances that resulted in this mess. Also I have a couple of gripes with this show of trying to justify the romance between Violet and Gilbert in that one episode with the princess where Violet "justifies a 14 year old with a 21 year old" Oh my god, and now the show runners are trying to fix it by doing the worse exposition possible by (she's 18 now). I don't know what the fix would have been but the entire romance is just so icky.

For the life of me I don’t know why Gilbert is alive. Like the whole fucking show wasn’t explicitly about her development in his absence

Great video x

Great video. Thank you for sharing your thoughts it's great to hear what you thought of AOT & Bojack

10:25 Eren has always been like that tho, his way to solve a problem is to kill all his enemies. First the titan, then the people outside the walls then the ones on the other side of the sea and finally the entire world. If anything he's a very consistent character. It just that people don't like feeling conflicted and having their beliefs challenged. Also he doesn't "feel obligated" to the rumbling: it's inevitable. That what's breaks him. He will even try to change that future but he will fail. Because of that later on he will accept this as the only possible outcome so he becomes more resolute with his actions.

Violet Evergarden is one of my favorite anime. But it’s so hard to rewatch because I cry so easily

This was a great video! Thanks for making it!!!

This would be my sister's dream

im pissed i was just in florida for 2 weeks and just now heard about this place :(

Great review. I love my Gemloader top loader binder but looking to expand my horizons.

U cant be that hideous that u have to use an avatar to speak for you. also u didnt even compare the two binders at all u didnt mention quality, stitching, sleeves, all u did was pour water on it and talk about the zipper

I've been on here since 2009 (Rotten egg creations archive, craftyandy, weirdzors) I think my numbers speak for themselves...good luck out there

remember when making profit as a business was enough and you didn't need to make a fantasy of forever growth?

Its definitely rough for content creators especially the fact that you can get pulled off the platform for any reason at all and even if you put years of hard work into a channel you can still never make a livable wage off of it just sucks

I think these days TH-cam ad revenue can't be your monetization endgame - you need to focus around a business you're creating or something else to more deeply engage with the viewer

Content creators would be much better if all these platforms focused on what made them successful rather than being a one stop shop. If you are going to TH-cam for short vertical content I think you are going to the wrong place. Tik Tok already existed, and before it so did Vine, they are very different beasts. Both in terms of the viewers and their mindsets, as well as the creators and their approaches. They are very different worlds in terms of content. Its the same idea as judging an FPS on the merits of a Platformer, both are still video games, but they are very different in how they play, the way you are meant to interface with them, and especially in target audience. Even if crossover still exists. Maybe I am just a boomer, but I think many of these companies need to harken back to their past. Rather than trying to be one stop shops and each creating half assed and at times horrible spaces to both create and consume content. They should focus on being the best spaces with the best tools and avenues like they did 10 years ago. In an ecosystem like this you could pick and choose as both a creator and consumer what content you wanted to interface with. If you didn't care about picture content you could just no use Instagram, if you like short form you could just use vine, if you preferred just blog posts and long form video you could use youtube and tumblr, if you liked any combination of them you could just use the ones you wanted. It made it better for viewers but also creatives since most creators probably have no interest in the massive upkeep or workload of trying to juggle all these different mediums and platforms. But than again, maybe I am just stuck in the past lol.

I like watching long videos on TH-cam because it is my TV, so I hate shorts and try to avoid them like the plague, same with Reels on IG, if I want to mindlessly lose my time I go directly to TikTok, it already has a better algorithm for that.

I’d create if there was a way to completely hide who I was, and it was just about my content more than anything else. Also, I’d just host on my own website and use the social media platforms to promote the stuff I post there instead.

A vtuber video essay, interesting! You make some good points. Subscribed.

Damn this is an amazing video. Subscribed! You seem like a very intelligent and rational person, something sorely lacking in todays society. Hope to see your channel blow up!

I never thought that I'd be listening to a Vtuber think-piece, yet here I am, impressed. Subscribed.

Nowadays it’s all about CONTENT not videos.

super insightful video, thank you for sharing!! as a viewer of long form videos, this has inspired me to interact more directly with the work I enjoy. one of the best things we can do for creators is show our appreciation for their work. i think especially if we want to see more passionate creators who aren’t primarily creating for financial reasons, this is a must.

This is why I’ve gravitated toward longer format and video essay content from smaller sized channels. I can feel much more intellectually engaged with the content, and better understand the topic and subjects, without feeling like I’m receiving a watered down product. I get the feeling like the larger a channel gets, the more information gets discarded, and the more detached from their viewer the creator becomes. Again, this is probably because I’m an over-explainer who loves nitty gritty details, and who gets anxious from having too much varied information thrown at me all at once.

in a perfect platform, creators like me would not exist. but this is not a perfect platform

Great video

This video was super interesting to listen to. I've been debating on getting a flip phone and it's mostly due to short form content. Shorts are literally rotting brains. It's not uncommon to hear my friends are sitting in bed for hours on TikTok now. Long form is not only good for the creators, but for the consumers.

It seems like the only objectively good option to make a living is by selling arts/goods. Regular 9-5 day jobs are the objectively worst kind of way to make money, but content creation used to be the ultimate way to escape from it. I used to view TH-cam as my escape from the “prison”. But after creating for more than 10 years now, I don’t think it will ever be a possibility anymore. Nowadays, content creation have become a rat race, just another form of 9-5, where you’re expected to speak, create, and act a certain way, otherwise you’ll be replaced. But I’d say still try to create regardless of what the algorithm says. Yes, it might take a eons to get to a position where you could pay your bills but it’s certainly much better than passively working and hoping that your meaningless office job is gonna take you anywhere. True financial freedom is impossible to achieve these days anyway unless you’re extremely lucky or talented, so might as well just try everything. I’ve seen multiple creators who quit their day jobs after creating “off meta” content for a few years and finally be able to live happily. It sucks that not everyone’s gonna make it, meaning that some of us might have to live paycheck to paycheck doing 9-5s forever, but I’d rather try. Tl;dr yes, being a content creator sucks today, but it’s still infinitely better than having a normal job. Keep on creating and quit as soon as you can.

Yes. I would. I don't knwo in what medium or platform. But yes.

to answer the question, yea why not

I miss my long videos

Hmmm, I am unhinged according to my brain mechanic. Maybe I can create tarkov and warhammer lore shitposts in order to keep the demons at bay. I do like torturing myself and showing the results to others.

that bo burnham quote hits so hard. it seems every social media platform now encourages all of their users to join in on the rat race and it’s kinda sad seeing people who create awesome art get sucked into the flurry of it all

There is a very good video on shorts content and the audience it attracts on TH-cam (Video is 'I posted shorts everyday on TH-cam and this happened' by Extranet Shaquille.) Would post a link but YT doesnt like those even if the site is well known like Wikipedia for some god forsaken reason. It reminds me of a joke where someone online says that they like pancakes and someone indignantly replies 'oh so you hate waffles?'

Simple, delete the shorts feature
