Watcher fans sure are entitled and a little insane, ngl. "No one is going to sign up for your service! We're all poor! You've made the worst decision, and you'll be back in no time!" Saying this directly to the creators really reminds you of how low the respect for people you don't personally know has gone. I miss the forth wall between creator and audience.
I get and fully understand not having the money to support them, but... Watcher does have fans with money. A lot of them actually. They have merch sales. Their live tour sells out most venues. They have thousands of supporters on Patreon, where the cheapest tier is $5. They're able to gauge the rough finances of their staunchest supporters; that's how they landed on the subscription price. Yes, this move will reduce their viewership in sheer numbers, but to say all of their fans are broke and none will follow/support is factually incorrect.
It may not be a decision everyone agrees with, but severing the limitations of advertisers and youtube in favor of artistic freedom is a good thing. Yes, even if it comes with a loss of revenue. They understand that risk.
Also, I'm begging people to stop treating this like "another Netflix" or something and instead look at it as, "I am supporting a creator I like, similar to Patreon." They literally said in the video that they don't care if you share accounts. Get five friends, and you'll pay $1/mo.
I hate feeling compelled to rant in favor of their decision because I have my own reservations about whether it's the best move. However, I know it's not a choice they made lightly, and I like to think they understand that they'll need to branch out like crazy to entice subscribers.

AAAAAAAAAA WAIT WAIT if you finished wci then i gotta know how you felt during judge and luffy's final conversation when he starts listing all of the qualities he thinks are sanji's worst and then luffy waves him off w/o responding and is like 'wow why did he say all those nice things abt you?' and sanji's so bashful abt it
UGLY SOBS GODDDDD I cannot believe he actually said that 😭 I love that what traits Judge sees as “failures” Luffy sees as complete successes surrounding Sanji’s character. And he was so adorably oblivious too Judge was just shouting at them and Luffy was like “Okay yeah and he’s super pretty and he has nice abs and a cute butt, what’re you so mad about?” LMAO

sukuna begging yuuji to take him back because he wants to feel his emotions again instead of his own emptiness and nothing but the closeness they once had is enough for him. and when yuuji does, because he feels incomplete as well without sukuna, he spawns into the domain again and walks around the familiar place, hesitantly calling out sukuna’s name to confirm he’s really there. “sukuna…?”
“…kozō” he hears in return, fondness in the tone, and when he looks up at where he remembers the throne to be he sees a face so similar to his staring down at him with a smile, a hand immediately reaching out to slick the pink hair back. after everything they went through there’s no reason to keep dancing around it – they belong to each other.

Redraw of this October 2022 concept art. I posted ‘what if there was other types of leos besides burning leo’ back when I first made this blog. Now I redo this concept, but with more lore! Below is a document detailing the biology and social/cultural habits of each of these leos.

Trying not to think too hard about this bc the last episode hasn’t even come out yet but when you break up with someone and then don’t see or talk to them for presumably a pretty significant amount of time are you really just gonna fall immediately back in love as soon as u reunite?? Maybe they will have talked before they actually meet again who knows but HOW are they gonna believably get them back together in probably at most 3/4 of an episode??? Are they??? To undo the hurt and betrayal they both felt at the end of the last ep I feel like it would take a whole new slow re-burn for them to get back together… yes I know mhok is THE simp of all time and I love him for that but I’d like to think he has at least a shred of dignity and wouldn’t just jump back into day’s arms after being hurt so deeply by the person he loved the most in the world ALSO it would be DELICIOUS to have day chase mhok this time around but there is simply not enough screen time available at this point for that to happen properly which is so unfortunate bc now that I thought of it I really want to see it and that could probably cancel out all the things I didn’t like to say the least about the last few eps. I am busting out the clown makeup right now, in fact I have never wanted to be a clown more in my life, but I’m thinking we’re getting an open ending at best. MAYBE a rushed and not fulfilling/earned happy ending but that’s almost worse and if they dare to give us a sad ending (or day can see again) I’m literally digging a hole in the ground and holding a funeral service for this show

Will you be retiring haechan as well, he has said some fatphobic remarks in recent past too i was just wondering if the treatment will be the same
i'm not 'retiring' Jeno. I said i would simply 'put him back down.'
i'm a 127 blog, NOT a dreamie blog, not a wayv blog-
i don't enjoy drama, i dont enjoy getting asks like this in my inbox, so when a member of not 127 does something that creates a stir, i simply put them back down.
does this mean i'm retiring Jeno? no. i'm just not touching controversy with a 10 foot pole, especially as i'm a 127 person and not a dreamie.
please don't come on my blog looking for drama when there's none to be had here. my intent with my work and posts is to spread joy and provide a safe space.
currently, at this moment, Jeno is being questioned on his ability to provide safety for others. whereas, Haechan is not. they are not comparable situations so i will not be 'retiring' Haechan, nor am i retiring Jeno, he is on probation.
i'm allowed, as the creator of this blog, to put anyone - especially non 127/svt members - on probation if i wish to.
i'm sorry if you feel this is unfair, but there are many other blogs who are Jeno centric that you can go read from, as Jeno only has 2 of 88 of the fics on my blog to begin with.

i am going to work on that damned thing i've been trying to write and actually finish it so HELP ME god. there will be no scribbling. no gaming. no frolicking around on the guitar. no off-key singing and no reading. until it's done.
(i'm exaggerating, but it's a way to get motivated, i guess).
(there will be reading. a lot of it).
(the bug is weak.)
