| the famous anime youtuber just announced his own isekai anime "Baan" are you looking forward to it ? i'm not into his content much but id like to see what he does with isekai https://x.com/GiggukAZ/status/1940976360744219132 |
 |
| I would hope it doesn't get "baaned". |
| I don't like isekai so much, so I'm gonna pass. |
| eh, it's a shortfilm. literally the opposite of what I like about anime, which is longform storytelling. nothing against Garnt, but I couldn't care less about this. |
| I’m hyped, genuinely looks really good with some very good up and coming seiyuus. Why haven’t this been added to MAL yet? |

| I don't like Isekai that much, but this might be the first Isekai I'm very eager for. I'm interested to see what kind of story comes from a viewer, not an actual author. |

| @_cjessop19_ don’t tell me the MAL mods have gone full Reddit mods… this is literally an anime being released in Japanese cinemas with all the staff working on anime previously by a Studio already on MAL… what more do they want?!?! |

| @_cjessop19_ I don't see any reason that isn't just bias against YouTubers. It's done by a Japanese studio, the staff is 90% japanese, the producer is a subsidiary of Kadokawa and it'll air in Japanese cinemas. |

| i stopped watching gigguk after lockdown ended and yesterday his announcement post came in my feed. it was good to see he was making an anime and of course its an isekai. channel must be doing pretty well to be able to take on projects like these. good for him. |
 The end of an era. Thank you Wit, Mappa and Isayama. Feeling half happy, half sad. Kawaii waifus and precious best girls <3333 |
| If I recall correctly Misty Chronexia commissioned his own anime and it was a sloppy mess. It doesn't seem that big of a feat, thinking about it, since MC is now one of the most irrelevant anituber out there who mostly got by through top10s. Well, at least, Gigguk has the wisdom to keep it short. I highly doubt it's going to shatter mountains and reach even outsiders, instead being merely a little cherry pie dedicated to his most supportive fans. |

| @Yuki_Niji i hope this wont be another scott pilgrim like situation on mal |
 wow |
| A Thai isekai? It’s gonna be trash because gigguk is trash. |
| HACKs! 🤢🤮 |
| I am not going to watch it (probably) - seems to be pretty boring based on the fact they only felt comfortable with showing music, visual setting and some basic designs+animations in the trailer. |
| "I don't know everything, I only know what the internet knows." - Definitely not best girl. "To ask is a moment's shame. Not to, lifelong." - I quoted with a posed look. |
| trash taste: drop gigguk: drop westerner involvement: drop isekai: drop really fucking feels like it's trying to ghibli: drop there are -5 reasons to watch this and on top of that it looks boring. |
| 馬鹿げた倫理 全部ガラクタで |
| doubt I'll watch but can't lie that it's pretty cool |
  |
| I couldn't care less what a YouTuber does, but good luck to him.👍 |
 |
| Who cares + anime youtubers are all trash. |
| Taiga best girl forever. |
| I expected it, but the YouTuber hate is sad to watch. If some guy can "break into" the industry and try his hand at making anime after just talking about them for decades, that's worth cheering for and worthy of respect. It may turn out to be trash, but he was given an opportunity and took it. Now he's putting his money where his mouth is. Also, I'm curious about what it would mean for the industry if this is a huge success. |

| @Yuki_Niji "Nothing else to do" but make an anime, right? I'm just surprised and impressed he's making it happen. We can clown on him if the anime turns out bad. |
| I am really tired of the same half dozen YouTubers sucking up all the air. The only reason these channels get so popular is the algorithm that keeps recommending the one with most hits to everyone, so the most popular gets most popular and it snowballs. I watched that channel like 2 or 3 times maybe years ago and thought it was stupid and annoying as fuck. But if he has this thing made without using AI or any other cheat-ass software, then I'll support it anyway. |

| @perseii I’m not referring to Garnt, I’m talking about the people hating on it already. They are the basement dwellers hating on someone actually doing something cool with their lives. I’m not expecting this anime to be 10/10 in terms of story with its 18min runtime, but just by the trailer I knows it’s gonna be 10/10 on vibes and music. |

| I’ll watch it if I have time, but it’ll be interesting to see his script, especially since he constantly criticizes other works and their writing. It would be ironic if his script ends up having the same issues he often points out. |
| I always love seeing when Internet creators branch out and make their own big creative projects like this. I may have to check it out since we need more original animation |
This post is brought to you by your local transfem gamer goblin. Will not tolerate bigotry and will fight against "anti-woke" sentiment to make the anime community a safer place.  |
| Looks interesting,i'll check it out for sure especially because i watch gigguk and think he's a great guy |
| Can respect his genuine passion for Anime. Will watch it since it's only a short movie I usually enjoy Gigguk's seasonal anime videos they're pretty entertaining. |

| I guarantee you there's a lot more AI in media than you realize already, wouldn't surprise me if all the airing anime use AI somewhere in some way. |

| @Ambeon If they are using it and not being honest about it, then that's extremely unethical and wrong. One of the current anime apparently got caught using AI subtitles that they were dishonest about. If they want to use it, then be honest and say you cheated and I'll watch something else but if these companies lie about it that's dead wrong and people are right to be angry. |
| Not sure how the anime [short] will go, but at least they made an actually interesting Trash Taste episode around it. |
| Not an anime. He only lives in Japan for his podcast, and this "anime" is clearly not aimed at a Japanese audience, even if he pays to put it in Japanese theaters. Gigguk is from Thailand, not Japan. |
| I'm happy for Gigguk, although from the trailer this project doesn't look all that interesting. I'll might check it out still. |

| @Yuki_Niji My bad. I've seen a frankly bewildering amount of hate on literally anything these YouTubers do, so automatically assumed the worst. I also think this project is worth keeping an eye on, hope it turns out good. |
| I hope they gave Garnt a lot of power over this production and aren't just using his original concept and name and then running with it, because I think he generally got a good take on things. Really cool to see some Thai mythology in anime too. Hopefully it paves the way for more anime based on SEA myths EDIT: I've now watched the Trash Taste episode where he talks more about it and it seems really promising. I'm glad that he's truly approaching it as a passion project and some of the concept art and world building he showed looked great |

| I've been watching his content since the EvAbriged series back in 2013 or 2014 I can't remember precisely. Great for him! His taste may be trash but I won't belittle the hard work that must have been put through to accomplish this feat. Even if it manages to get on the database (LOL ifykyk) and has an average of 5.90 score, it's still a lifetime achievement. |

| @ForgotEyeWasHere Radient’s creator is from France. Cyberpunk Edgerunners, Isekai Suicide Squad are also than not anime is that’s the case. You are clinically brain dead, I politely ask to just never speak on a forum again if you cannot even communicate at human level. |

| Good on him. I'll watch it and have it forgotten in the annals of my anime list. |
| Isekai? Nah, skip bro. ㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤ |

| I am so hype for this! I enjoy watching his videos, even though I don't have the same anime tastes as him. I will definitely be watching this just to support him, and the trailer looks good. |

| I don't know who he is nor interested on check his anime but good for those who are fans of him :) |

| Not a fan of isekai, but I'm pretty interested with the mix of Thai culture so I might check it out. It's cool to see an anime Youtuber that actually do projects as big as making anime. |
| nah not interested but could be if i hear something good about it. good for him though. |
