OTAKU GOLD PRE-POLL QUESTION!!
Added 2024-12-29 20:43:48 +0000 UTCALRIGHT! Okay...
We’ve got an important question for all you beautiful OTAKU GOLD members!
The Otaku Gold Tier has become a special space for bingeing and diving deep into incredible anime, and we’d love your input on its structure before we launch the next poll 🙏🏽
POLL QUESTION: How would you prefer the Otaku Gold slot to be structured?
OPTION #1 (Stick with the current system): Focus on one long-running show (e.g. Naruto, One Piece, Bleach, MHA, Monster, etc.), with 6 reactions per week until the series is completed.
OPTION #2: Split the slot into 2 shows, with 3 episodes from each show weekly (still totaling 6 reactions per week).
Your vote will help us decide how to best structure this tier moving forward!

2025-01-01 01:32:32 +0000 UTCYeah I agree, maybe they can work something out when they're ready to take on that challenge

2024-12-31 05:03:08 +0000 UTCI was thinking that same thing, like One Piece is my favorite anime and I always want people to watch it but for it to take up a slot, I'm not really sure yk, its so much longer than the shows they have watched so far I think it may need to be its own thing somehow tbh

2024-12-31 04:07:37 +0000 UTCI understand that. Personally I think the amount of episodes really stops a lot of people from starting it but it's really worth the watch. I would actually feel devastated if it ended any time soon. 🥲 I would definitely skip through most of the intro, outros, and recaps (Unless I really enjoy the music) to binge it.
Kenken
2024-12-30 21:49:01 +0000 UTCnaruto is not that long if you skip the filler, (still not a short one) but compared to one piece is realy not the same kind of comitment

2024-12-30 21:19:49 +0000 UTCIt is 😔 but a great journey regardless. Maybe they could do 2 animes 6 days ? I feel like Naruto and one piece should have special exceptions since they're the longest.
Kenken
2024-12-30 16:40:24 +0000 UTCOne Piece? I actually like it too, but for them it will be long journey
Max
2024-12-30 16:28:09 +0000 UTCI think it'd be best to concentrate on one Anime at a time.

2024-12-30 16:21:47 +0000 UTCHonestly if we pick a really long anime it might be better if they were willing to watch like 3 episodes a day for 6 days but that might be too much for them. I really understand why people don't want the long animes but I would also hate for them to miss out on them just bc of that. My favorite is OP. I would looooove for them to watch it. 😭😭

2024-12-30 16:12:33 +0000 UTCThere’s a movie for hunter x hunter

2024-12-30 13:53:27 +0000 UTCThe Otaku slot isn't for long anime specifically, it's just a slot where we got six episodes a week 😌

2024-12-30 11:16:23 +0000 UTCJAY18, rest assured, J&J would never postpone FB (the anime with the highest percentage of votes they've ever had here and they even mentioned how happy they were with it) and DS (an anime with over 460 votes and which they've already mentioned in some of their reactions and said that they themselves want to watch it) they would "never" do that to us who voted so much! Peace 🙏

2024-12-30 09:34:17 +0000 UTCthis poll is to do with potential schedule changes to do with gold tier but the gold tier being reserved for a long show 6x a week is the best option over all, even though I voted for 2, delaying makes for a better schedule going forward, if they postpone and watch a 24ep then following that do fruba/ds, a new show will start around every 3 months for the next 9-12 months over 2 shows every 6 months, this gives viewers the chance to have something they enjoy and sub for, more frequently. Hopefully that makes a bit more sense :)
Locz
2024-12-30 08:34:44 +0000 UTCWait why are we trying to get them to postpone FruBa (which 600+ people voted for) or DS? What’s the purpose of that? Maybe I’m not understanding your comment entirely but also what’s your vote?!
Jay18
2024-12-30 07:27:19 +0000 UTCI think if demon slayer and fruits basket or any 2 shows that are 50+ eps are in the Monday/Thursday slots together, 2 is definitely better. If you do 1 show and something 150+ eps wins, the next main slot will open up again around summer, so if people aren’t into either of those 3 or get bored, they rely on the highest tier for the least amount of content or potentially none. Polls are great for seeing what people what to see but shouldn’t be the, be all end all of what you watch. I think rather than 2 gold shows it would be better to postpone either DS or fruba and try to get it so mon/thur shows are staggered, that way people won’t potentially have to wait 6 months for a new show

2024-12-30 06:07:15 +0000 UTCLonger anime usually have huge fanbases so although it can leave the reactor fewer anime to watch at first, it significantly broadens the channel's reach. Leading to more people pledging, subscribing, having more people watch more anime these two watch in the future. Either way I am in support cuz no way I'm keeping the two from watching things they might actually love just because it is long, even if I'd like them to watch shorter / better anime too.

2024-12-30 05:06:00 +0000 UTCI feel like next long anime on this channel will not be great. At least we have Chainsaw Man and Arcane for a while :)

2024-12-30 03:00:18 +0000 UTCglad im not the only one rooting for mha😊 but i suggest one show. means you’ll get through it quicker
Starlight64
2024-12-30 02:36:09 +0000 UTCOPTION 1 is more practical, it gets the anime finish quicker and move on to the next!
accomplice
2024-12-30 00:04:53 +0000 UTCif you guys start MHA, i will be IN THERE like SWIM WEAR, that's my FAV anime ever, i'd be so excited
hin0kamikagura
2024-12-29 23:46:33 +0000 UTCI agree, it would be great to see some shorter shows in the Otaku Gold slot. Since J&J are still quite new to anime, it would interesting to see some variety there instead of committing to a long series that takes ages to finish.

2024-12-29 23:40:57 +0000 UTCOooh now that’s a great idea!
Jay18
2024-12-29 22:36:34 +0000 UTCThat’s actually a good way to put it. I didn’t think about that 🤔 we don’t want them having sensory overload lol
Jay18
2024-12-29 22:34:43 +0000 UTCagree with that, they need to focus only on one
Max
2024-12-29 22:31:35 +0000 UTCDefinitely just one. Y'all are watching so many new shows with different worlds and rules/law, I know it's already confusing as it is.
Sitting_Bear (Rene)
2024-12-29 22:21:48 +0000 UTCAgree, this is my recommendation! If One Piece, Naruto, FairyTail or Bleach wins go for six a week. If a shorter seriess wins, then go with 3 episodes for THAT series, while 2nd place in the poll gets the other 3 wheter it is a long series or a short one! So let say 1st place FMAB and 2nd place Naruto gets picked, they will do 3 and 3 but in 5 months when FMAB is finished, they put all 6 into Naruto.!
DubwoolWooloo
2024-12-29 22:17:14 +0000 UTCBut if Naruto looses then what? It's a gamble. I don't like gambling
Itachi Uchiha (Ericken)
2024-12-29 22:11:56 +0000 UTCAgreed, if it's only 3 episodes a week it's going to end up being a year or more per show, specially the long ones... Too drawn out. Also J&J have been known to get confused when watching several anime at the same time so for their sanity and ours I don't think it's viable.
Angélica Hernández
2024-12-29 22:08:46 +0000 UTCOne Piece at 6 a week take 3 1/4 years, it fits in so they would catch up before the end run. Naruto at 6 a week would take a year and a half. While Bleach at 6 a week will take, 10 Months. FMAB will only take 11 weeks on 6 a week, while it will take 5 months on 3 episodes.
DubwoolWooloo
2024-12-29 22:06:15 +0000 UTCDepends on the series for me. Love the idea of two series per week (3&3) if the series can be completed in a reasonable time frame. But I also enjoyed the one series per week pace. My engagement is most dependent on my interest in the title and the time commitment (which doesn’t really help answer your poll as we all have varied tastes and availability in our schedules). Whatever you choose, J&J, here to support you, spend time in the lovely communities you have created, and watch alongside you! Keep up the great work.
antionette7
2024-12-29 22:01:29 +0000 UTCI agree with Fox. I vote for shorter, completed, and variety. I think the epic Shonens are great for personal exploration but would be difficult to maintain viewer interest and enthusiastic reactions when the commitment, without filler, would still take a lengthy time (years).

2024-12-29 21:57:37 +0000 UTCHeavy on it!
Jay18
2024-12-29 21:46:45 +0000 UTCNaruto is too long even for 1st slot. And what if we’re not looking forward for 2nd and 3rd slot either? For option 2 naruto can still win and we get an extra series.
Dude Myname
2024-12-29 21:34:33 +0000 UTCAnd let it be FMAB 🥰
Rubi
2024-12-29 21:29:41 +0000 UTCBinging one show is better imo~ you can get through a show quicker and get to more shows faster
britt m
2024-12-29 21:28:49 +0000 UTC😂. Yeah. So? The 1st slot was suppose to be for the long anime You still have the 2cd and 3rd spot in looking forward to.
Itachi Uchiha (Ericken)
2024-12-29 21:27:02 +0000 UTCDuring the period when AOT and Haikyu were featured, I remained uninterested in both. DeathNote, however, was the primary reason I maintained my subscription. Later, when HxH and Haikyu were showcased, my interest still lay elsewhere. JJK was the series that kept me subscribed. I worry that with only two series, there won't be a third to provide balance. If Naruto emerges victorious, it may take a year or two to conclude, but at least two other anime will be available to look forward to.
Itachi Uchiha (Ericken)
2024-12-29 21:25:16 +0000 UTCI agree with everyone that it kind of depends on the series. I voted for the split of two as we would be technically getting 2 anime’s with 3 reactions each which sounds like a steal for instance if it were like FMAB and MHA but if it’s like Naruto or One Piece(which I am not watching) I would rather the 6 reactions a week. Also with filtered out filler episodes cause I didn’t even sit through those on my own first watch 😅
Jay18
2024-12-29 21:22:13 +0000 UTCI like the 6 per week because it gets through an anime faster, especially if you only want to do long anime in this but i would personally prefer you do shorter finished animes so you could experience more animes over time... Might be alone in this tho
fox
2024-12-29 21:20:36 +0000 UTCIf Naruto wins it will still take a year to finish.
Dude Myname
2024-12-29 21:19:21 +0000 UTCI agree with you!
Jay18
2024-12-29 21:19:04 +0000 UTCIt depends on the series. Because if Naruto, Bleach, or One piece wins then it’ll take too long even for option 1. But if it’s option 2 then we could have something like Vinland saga and code geass at the same time. And it won’t take that long to finish.
Dude Myname
2024-12-29 21:18:19 +0000 UTCit will be 1 year probably but we will see, what will they do about it
Max
2024-12-29 21:06:58 +0000 UTCThey’ll be on them for years regardless. If they watch OP, Naruto, Bleach consecutively and did 6 episodes every week, rough estimate is like 5+ years. Prob more if someone is willing to do the math. Sounds awful to me personally.
Alpha
2024-12-29 20:59:29 +0000 UTCNaruto is too long bro
Alpha
2024-12-29 20:56:56 +0000 UTCIt's nothing wrong with the system the way it is. I think because people was confused with the 1st system, saying anime like Naruto is too long is the reason why this pole exist. 🤦♂
Itachi Uchiha (Ericken)
2024-12-29 20:53:44 +0000 UTCVery true. If it’s a super long series then it would be best to just dive into it and focus on getting through all the episodes. But it is tempting to pick the two animes with three episodes per week because that means we get an extra anime to binge with them. I just need to see what the poll is looking like.
zari
2024-12-29 20:53:04 +0000 UTCIf you wanna tackle one of the big 3 you are probably going to need 6 a week or you will be on one of them for years at a time. If you are doing MHA or FMAB or another series in the 50-120 episode range you can do two at a time with 3 a week and not clog up the otaku gold slot.
Jake R
2024-12-29 20:50:34 +0000 UTCWait why am I overthinking this so hard 😂
Kevin
2024-12-29 20:50:20 +0000 UTCit depends what series will be
Max
2024-12-29 20:46:20 +0000 UTCOne Series. 😊
