Content

So right now I'm at a crossroads with how I want to continue making content on Patreon. Sorry but right now I'm NOT focused and if I stream I know it's gonna be shit. I need a few extra days to think about how I'm going to do things moving forward, Patreon's ties to my KIngu~san YT channel, how this affects the Gaming content I want to do or LACK THERE OF, and also streaming as a whole on this platform. 


So here is the big question for ALL current Patreons. This will decide a lot moving forward so please be honest with your boy. Do you guys care/want to see a LIVE CHAT in my reactions? **Meaning I would just watch the anime myself on my own time and upload those reactions.

Let me know your thoughts on the Patreon. How to improve it, what do YOU want to see, etc.

cozyboyd

Hmmm I don’t care but at the same time I think you should keep it

Jairo

I wanna see the double feature stream happen or at least one piece

Eric Moreno

Chat do be annoying sometimes lol

Vali

If it makes your life easier than go for it

Ora Sama

Yes the live chat is always fun

Jack Reynolds

The chat is just filled with trolls and people who spoil. It's the only part of your content I dont like lmao

Razyel22

Not a dealbreaker, but I'd prefer it with the chat as opposed to without.

Vericho

If it makes it 2-3x harder to stream, then we don't need chat, but if It's just a temporary problem Chat is pretty funny sometimes.

robert Vermeylen

As long as the anime video is larger, screw chat.

wadson

I enjoy the various memes chat posts. Aside from that, i can do without a chat box

Kitty129

12 hour stream inbound

Zerowolf0

Could you set it up so that only we see the chat but you don't?

syl

chat's a must, it's half the fun

Xellen

While I may be a mod for the KOL discord server, I’m first and foremost a fan of your anime streams and have been since the stream.me days. To me and many other people the best thing to improve upon would be better scheduling and time management when it comes to the streams. I’ll also say that privatising the streams when live is NOT the way to go at all, please rethink this.

King Buggy

Chat is needed for stuff like telling you are muted when you are muted, and it also helps with you reacting when you can see chat reacting to your reaction. However, there are trolls in chat and sometimes it takes your attention away from the anime. I say you should do a coin toss.

Gabriel Gonzalez

With your streaming content it’s a double edge sword in a way. Seeing you react to funny meme’s or comments and such does add to the experience but also seeing the chat trolling a show you’ve chosen to keep or are considering can be irritating. As a whole seeing what you’re reacting to in chat is a part of the experience with you since you interact with your audience that’s what makes you so fun. But good luck on your decision !

Dylan Rivera

I don't believe making your anime nights private is the best course of action. I think the main part of the anime nights is the huge crowds of people that chat together that watch your content. And if you make it where only 2/3 of your viewers can't see you and or chat with you that just feels empty compared to before.

KingStation314

It least try to stream on sunday or monday 😔

Xellen

Also as others have said, chat is a must. The community WANTS to be a part of your streams and interact with you.

Earl Skiiwalker

Live chat adds to the fun of the reactions. Some of the best moments come from the chat which in my opinon adds value to the overall content.

Sammy B

Kol I dont know if you'll see this or not but I dont think its necessary to have chat for EVERY anime. There are clearly some popular ones and less than popular ones so why not stream the popular ones on set days and then the ones very little people care about film them on your own? I dont think majority people would mind.

Jay

I joined your Patreon cause I say you upload some videos on YT that had the chat and saw people talking together and to you, it’s the main reason I joined. I absolutely love the chat and hope you keep it. It’s like texting a group chat of friends while watching your favorite shows. All that being said, if you feel like having to do the reactions live with the chat is draining you. Stop it. Your personal/mental health is more important. It might be helpful to do it every two weeks instead.

Terrance buford

i said yes but i dont really care if you do it or dont

onepieceCreatesAutism

i dont even read discord chat what a waste of time it just distracts from content. honestly chat is toxic garbage most of the time and talks about one piss. like ive said before kol going to stream less and less and less and less anime. hes not even good at gaming but watch him drop anime reactions for it within a few years hes going to make easy dumb content on gaming channel cuz it takes no effort.

Ebankz

Do a discussion stream. Why does the chat pose an issue? I would like to hear more details about how it affects the stream and why It's a hindrance. I would say yes but I don't know why you want to remove it so some insight would be nice.

onepieceCreatesAutism

hey kol u moron you should be focusing on being a better patreon streamer meaning streaming earlier, doing less and less rants and stop pausing so much. also finish what you started i want to see other anime your supposed to binge not all the seasons of boring series like monogatari. also drop danmachi your creepy behavoir offends women and alienates all your female viewers. its promoting rape culture 2 im sure in someway.

Screcy

This is so weirdly formulated. You are just asking if it's ok to stop streaming and just upload reactions instead. It's fine by me. Chat is overrated anyway. As long as you don't use this offline format as an excuse to lower the amount of shows you watch from what it has been up until now I don't see the problem.

Julias

While i enjoy seeing you interact with chat, which i think is half the fun for a lot of the viewers, if it is hindering your ability to make content or is making you miserable, put your well being/happiness first and foremost. A lot of people are watching the streams to see your reactions to these shows, and as long as you can be entertaining without chat, they probably won't mind. Also if you want to limit the livestreams to patreons only, i don't mind, but realize that it's not going to stop people from ripping your content and uploading it elsewhere. It's also going to mean a lot less people will be watching you live and will rely on those rips.

Raquayza

I believe it has something to do with it being not monitored much and if its for editing purposes it will be easy to edit out. Unless hes gonna use a different stream format with just the face cam the and video or he may just make stand alone videos without the chat and watch on his own time to upload thats the logical answer

Miracle Joe

The problem, for me, is that you will debate with chat and it ruined the pacing of throughout the steam. Like, It turn a 23 minutes episode to 50 minutes. Making the steam LONGER than it should. But, If you think differently. THAT IS OK!!! We are here for You!! HERE AND ALWAYS!!!!!

Ebankz

Okay I think I understand now you are deciding if you want to do it reaction style like Yaboiroshi or livestream style. I'll say this, Yaboiroshi has a very successful model on Patreon but it's sustained with a strict schedule and takes a lot more work. The livestream style is a different vibe entirely so it's up to what works best for you. The viewers will adapt.

Raquayza

Doubt it will be a triple stream this is test to catch up and make the other channel grow kol can watch the shows on his own upload them while still being caught up with the original planned streams

KingOfLatening

Hey King, I haven't really commented in a bit and I've been mad busy with IRL so I've been slowly catching up on your streams (I'm still way back in February lmao), but I wanted to let you know you're the GOAT bro, I never had so many things in common with someone like I do with you (I even hate shrimp bro, they are sea bugs for real), like 99% of thought processes are similar to mine it's scary. I don't know how chat has been in the current times but I do notice there's oftentimes some really stupid clowns in chat that manage to not get banned, whether it's because they're 12-16 years old or because they have actual mental disabilities, it's always unfortunate because you can tell the Moderators hold back from dunking on them. If you must get rid of chat, I would be alright with it, but I think it's more preferable to have chat there. While I was looking through a bunch of your older streams since I'm backlogged hard asf, even though the punks that were mad annoying and the spoiler fucks existed, I think it was pretty tolerable. If it has gotten worse now, get your gigachad mods like Xellen or Julias (bro how you not about S1 Ousama Ranking opening? joking lmao) to start banning the insufferable clowns. My 2 cents, much love!

Hayato

Chat is a big part why i started watching you, and what differentiates you from the other reactors i follow, I would love to keep seeing chat interact with you, but if it's annoying, you may as well follow what you want, I find this poll being very meaningless when the final decision is always yours. ALWAYS LOVED YOUR REACTIONS SO I HOPE YOU SORT THINGS OUT NICELY, LOVE FROM BRAZIL 🇧🇷

Raquayza

Kol just dont have chat on the main screen if its a distraction people just use a separate monitor look when you feel the need to otherwise dont use it a a fellow content creator look when you need to not when you have to

Drax

Do what's good for your mental health regardless of what the community wants. When you're in a good mood the reactions are always great. If chat is in the way distracting and draining you to the point of pay-walling your streams then it's probably a good idea to limit it as much as possible.

BeatIgor

Chat is a big part of the streams. We like you KOL, but your community is a big part of your success.

Mascotita

You are doing good for me.There is no problem, why doing this right now? I just join 2 month ago that why i subcribe here because of your reactions on youtube.Just keep goin.I love the chat to.

Lash

I do like chat all though it can be cancerous at times with all the weirdos and trolls, I think having a more strict set of rules in chat will make things better just ban all the retards who do dumb shit lol. But I could care less about all that the most important thing is just having a more consistent upload schedule especially with all the stuff coming out in the Fall

Jairo

TOWER OF GOD SEASON 2 Trailer hype

Lash

You could also make so that the only people who can type in the passionae club are ppl who have the patreon that way the chat will be better

Nickknight

I understand and respect the break. It just sucks this happens the two weeks I decide to join.

Rich

I wouldn't mind you doing a few weeks of just uploading your reactions and seeing if that allows you to use that extra time for creating other content. A suggestion as for patreon is creating a series that compares and contrasts 2 different animes that you would do (maybe live) once a week or every 2 weeks.

Richard Serrano

I voted yes but I also have no problem with you watching stuff on your own free time

MKB the KID

I think theirs enough normal reactors, live stream reactions are something different and add to the viewing experience. but if its that much easier and we get discussions, its cool.

GabeofPatrons

It depends. Sometimes KOL's banter with stream chat also makes it into the YT clips, so removing chat also removes context for that. I also read the chat in the VODs to see what was being said in case I missed something. But at the same time, chat is also a bunch of trolls, so maybe the VODs and YT vids would be better off without them. For now, lets see what the poll results in.

Jay

Bro I took a nap earlier today so I can be up for the 2x longer live stream, messed my whole sleeping schedule up💀😂

Criimzon

I think chat has a obvious presence so it's absence would definitely be felt. these reactions being a live stream seems like the biggest appeal but what ever is convenient for you man. I wouldn't mind if you did a reaction alone. Try it, see how that goes. My advice would be to focus on less anime at once. you got Primal, Steins;Gate, and Monogatari. I think if you just focused on one of them at a time instead of watching an episode of each, every stream, you'd actually get through them faster. or you wouldn't have to deal with leaving them unfinished like Love is War. they would instead be saved for later when you have time, which you probably won't have next season lol oh actually, I like the beginning bits where you go through anime related news, especially when you're looking at trailers.

Tony Diamond

I don't care either way. As long as reactions are still a thing. Do whatever you want King

Bvan1212

No chat works for me since scheduling has been hella late since we moved from Dlive. The issue is those non patrons won’t be able to watch at all, you could public the upload for 24 hours so that non patrons can watch, and then private it once the time passes 24hrs.

Shogun_Adrian7

Let's see here, I've been watching you're anime livestreams since Oct 2020, so far I've enjoyed interacting with you and the chat as we watch it together because it's hilarious at times and crazy when shit hits the gutter. I agree with some people in the chat that, if you're mental health/Wellbeing isn't working out then it can be stressful for you then that isn't good thing we like to hear. So I don't mind if you just watch it at your own pace without chat, so that you can catch up to other things with a better pacing and schedule for future events etc. Unless you make an Onlyfans lmao then that's a different story jk Im capping KEKW.

RGbug

I honestly don't care, I only watch your VODs to avoid your frequent stalling and I'm able to skip shows I don't give a shit about. Edit: Fuck the live chat, it's filled with whiny dipshits anyway.

aqyatrazillsix28

I usually catch the vod. Been watching sense dlive. The dlive chat really added to the experience and I enjoyed the random videos that would get posted. The discord chat doesn’t contribute to the experience as much, i.e. good memes, interesting takes, etc, it also seems to distract you i.e. taking shoots at you, near hentai posts, bad takes, etc. Your more than talented enough to do it yourself and keep getting my money. Keep moving forward, it’s been a pleasure and an inspiration watching you methodically build your brand. DO WHAT YOU FEEL YOU NEED TO DO as an artist/entertainer and as a business man. You one of the best out here doin it. Peace.

Fenri

Xellen I remember when we had dlive it was so good man and KoL didn't have to pay for Vimeo

Freddie marcano

Honestly the Chat interactions make it a thousands times funnier

Larry Dilorenzo

I mainly catch the VOD since my schedule conflicts with your reactions. I love your interaction with chat though. HOWEVER, that is only for when you're actually watching the episodes and interacting. When you talk to chat beforehand I usually just skip that. I find you and chat much more interesting and fun during the reactions itself. 😁

Phoenix Lopez

Straight facts up here 👆🏾

EOussama

The KOL chat interactions is honesty the selling point for me, it's THE experience.

Phoenix Lopez

Crimsons is also right, if your posting vods on Patreon on anime or shows just binged it if possible because it will be much quicker instead of watching a little of every think at a time. And you’ll have much more free time to do whatever. You will also have more content producing if you treat every anime binge watch as it own separate vods so people can cling individually to sed show they want to watch.

datbutterypopcorn

you interacting with the chat is a must 4 me. ur interaction with the chat is hilarious, like in tomodachi game when everyone reacted to the chat in the anime was some of the funniest shit i ever seen

Pegasusnoponcho

like many people have stated, the interactions that you have is the reason many of us like your reactions. But it is true that sometimes it can go out of hand and stall too much the streaming. I usually watch VOD and when something crazy happens it is funnier when you and chat interact. But If it is a toll for you, i understand that your mental health is more important. Just do what is best for you.

rokitup

I love the live chat..makes me feel more part of the community and the memes are amazing.

Xavier Ruffin

Just do what’s best for you man we just here to support you regardless

glance

The chat is a must! I’m here for 85% you but the last 15% is I’m here for chat. Them mfs are funny as shit sometimes. Plus it feels like a watch party with chat live! I’ll do anything to make it feel liked dlive still exists lol

TheGofenex

99.9% of the time i never make it to the stream cause when you stream I'm asleep so the live chat is cool to see yet not necessarily to me personally

onepieceCreatesAutism

hi can u direct me to those people ripping the content and where their posting it i will like to help report them

GiaThirds

I usually miss them. chat can be cool but the amount of toxicity is a turn off alot of the times.

Toomz

i like ur setup with chat

Alexander Pulido

IMO chat makes reaction way more fun

Xellen

Yeah I remember. Dlive was great but unfortunately the platform no longer became suitable for what KOL wanted to do.

Alex Hayes

We need a live chat Kol

Randy Schluter

I love some of your interactions with chat, but I don’t think it’s absolutely necessary. At the end of the day, I’m here to watch you and your reaction and input to the content Kol.

randomAlienVisitor

the memes and jokes from the chat are great, but a lot of the time there are trolls and people just trying to distract you. which ends up making the reaction like 2x as long as it normally would be. you could keep the chat, but increase the amount of mods or limit it to patrons only to cut down on the trolls.
