Schedule Update + I'm okay (Itaewon tragedy) (Patreon)
Content
Hey guys!
So I have no video ready for today unfortunately but wanted to give a heads up about the coming week and the status of Haikyuu and March Comes in Like a Lion.
The next 2 days will be My Hero Academia and Chainsaw Man.
And the following 2 days will be the first two episodes of Haikyuu.
And then Spy x Family and Mob Psycho, and an extra video of one of the above shows if I can manage 7 videos.
The following week, Haikyuu will continue and March Comes in Like a Lion will begin.
I apologize for the schedule being so chaotic. It's actually been kind of fun to have this level of variety, but I also think it would be nice to have a consistent and predictable schedule.
To that effect I'd like to ask for a favor since I'm having trouble finding definitive information regarding release dates, especially for the dub shows.
Could you let me know on which days of the week the following shows are aired?
- Spy X Family (sub)
- Chainsaw Man (sub)
- MHA (dub)
- Mob Psycho 100 (dub)
With that info I can take a look and make a consistent schedule for the next few months.
Thanks in advance!

And then on a personal note, thank you to those who reached out to check if I was okay in light of the events in Itaewon last night.
I live in Itaewon now and was in the crowd starting from around 10 pm. I actually had been out earlier in the day in another part of Seoul and came home around 6, and could barely get out of the train station. The usual 5 minute walk to my house took 15.
Later on going out with a group of friends, it was pretty apparent that we should get out ASAP. It was nearly impossible to move and the neighborhood was so packed, there was nowhere to go and nothing to do except be on the street in the crowd.
Around 11 a friend of mine and I decided to head to a quieter street usually about 3 minutes off the main road but in this case 10 minutes. We spent a few hours at a restaurant, got the news there from friends frantically texting us and from the emergency alerts on our phones, and came out to ambulances and people being treated for injuries, at which point we left.
The whole thing is a tragedy and myself and a lot of people I know here are really torn up about it. It's all anyone is talking about right now.
Halloween is probably one of the most anticipated weekends in Seoul and Itaewon is typically the main place it's celebrated. It's usually insanely fun even if crazy, and it's painful to think that people who were just trying to go out and have a good time on their Saturday night lost their lives through no fault of their own, just a lack of understanding about how quickly crowds can become dangerous. It easily could have been me, as I was sending videos of the crowds to friends as I was marveling at them. It didn't really occur to me that it could turn deadly.
I am relieved to say that although just about everyone I know in Seoul was in Itaewon that night, none of my friends were hurt in any way.
