Darek I would like to say that you should say with the exception of a few honestly since not everyone is saying that

That is an obvious hyperbole I'd day.


@AntwanMantilla He has nearly 300 000 which for a youtuber not doing shitty top tenz like misty or videos that are barely related to anime like abime man is a lot, also this is his second channel, not the main.

@JustALEX then I am going to proceed to use your own logic:

No one gives a shit what you think about anime youtubers, you are irrelevant.

But Digibro only has like 50,000+ subs. He's like irrelevant on the internet. I mean sure, it's hard to even get hundreds of subs but I don't think it's important coming from anyone who isn't popular on Youtube when it comes to anime imo. I don't see why people care so much about what others say tbh.


He has like 300,000 on his main account, this video was posted on a side account.
TEN COMMANDMENTS:
1) If Evangelion and Psycho-Pass are his only 10s, he probably also worships Tool and smells like cheesy puffs 2) Freudian psychosis =/= good writing 3) Moe blob art style is only ok in pure slice-of-life comedy 4) It's ok to enjoy shounen. Having fun is allowed 5) It is not ok to enjoy isekai (jk, it is, I just fucking hate it) 6) Creator breakdown =/= good writing 7) A story does not have to be wrapped up with a bow. Life is messy, why would a good story need to be tidy? 8) InuYasha is proto-Twilight 9) Ecchi CAN be good, but is almost always an abomination 10) If God is real, They allowed Super Kid to happen, so fuck Them

If I can call Digi a dipshit and get a cookie for doing so, then I'd be absolutely ecstatic. Cookies are amazing.

But if you're so politely asking why people are here continuing to talk about the topic despite thinking he's largely irrelevant in the grand scheme of things, I figured I might as well cough up an answer for you.

Oh, I messed up. But still, it irks me when people take others opinions seriously. It's just childish imo. I don't see how a youtuber with a "fan base" like that can be popular or worth caring about. But that's just me.

He's basically jealous that Gigguk has editing and social skills, someone send him a dakimakura.

And another thing, Digi complaining about other youtubers that make videos longer than they should be taking forever to get to the point?


Does he even check his own videos?

Mm, it's more a matter of principle here. I've always thought that YT callouts and stuff like that were a prickish thing to do and served no purpose other than to generate drama and attention, regardless of who was doing it. I'm just more annoyed here than usual, though, because he's blatantly just trying to kick up dumb shit for no real reason by going on a half an hour long temper tantrum that can be summed up as "there are people who don't do things the way I want them to!", and people actually want to defend him for this behavior. It's astounding.

He does have influence, as dumb as that is. I personally think the role of a critic (and I do believe in critics) is simply to provide a perspective which a segment of the community can identify with, and use that perspective to help viewers/readers to prioritize what they might choose to spend their time on, then come to their own conclusions. A reviewer's job isn't to "taste-make" and a fan shouldn't allow their taste to be made. Unfortunately, that's what criticism has mutated into, and that's why critics get a bad rep.

Basically in this video Digibro says that he's the best anime youtuber out there and all of them (he mentions Gigguk, RC Anime, The Canipa Effect, Mother's Basement specifically) suck and are unwatchable, and there are only a few exceptions (Mumkey Jones, My Japanese Animes, Best Guy Ever, Ninouh). He says that everyone pisses him off and he hopes he dies soon.

What do you people think about this video?


Are you seriously that stupid? Did you really take a minute of the ending of the video, completely out of context and make such a grand statement? It was so obvious that he was humouring himself when he made that statement.

This is one of the worst cases of misinformation I have seen in a long time.

I just find it amusing and funny that a drunk Digibro just blew a fuse... Highlight being the bit where "that punk ass motherfucker RCAnime"... haha!

Although, I agree with his call for better writing in the Youtube anime reviewer scene.... and that's the gist of this drunk rant if you don't nitpick.

JustALEX said:
Seriously, though....,

Man, I've heard some of these idiots get a shit ton of subscribers...

For talking about fucking anime?

Jesus Christ.

Don't get me wrong....I like discussing anime as much as the next MALer....the problem is anime is the most subjective thing in the world!

Well maybe Porn is the most subjective...I don't know.

Then again...I'm NOT going to subscribe to someone reviewing porn!!

The point is anime "reviewers" are full of shit.

I don't even know the point of subscribing to them.

Hell, you may as well "subscribe" to your fellow MAL anime reviewer!

Same fucking thing!


There's value in knowing that there are people out there being as passionate in anime out there as you. It's just a few people has chosen Youtube as their outlet for that. I may disagree or agree with them but that alone is something that I will thank and greatly admire these people for. It's all about passion, really.

Don't really care about anime youtubers tbh. Digibro is a nonce. Gigguk is the only decent anime related youtuber, actually comes off a like a normal guy and not a creep (theanimeman comes under the same bracket but his videos are repetitive and boring).

@CapitalistGod

I agree there is value in following those who share the things you like.

I'm strictly talking about "reviewers".

For example...I used to follow a guy on YouTube who unboxed anime related goods...from anime dvds to figures to other anime goods.

But he stopped uploading videos...

I thought his content was fun because I got to see anime merchandise being opened.

But actually reviewing an anime?

Nah...not into that.

While i dont watch him that much i still think he makes a valid point. If people are having hard time when he shits on A1 pictures then talk to him instead of going on twitter and other shit and talk behind his back. Just confront him via podcast or something similar. Then we would hear actual debate on the matter.

Ultimately, Digibro is right. And he made this video for the good of the community. He's just passionate about anime and and wants these highly watched channels to improve: making people like gigguk actually pay attention to their scripts and stop MB from spewing drivel for 15minutes. Though the presentation was a little puerile.

OP is written in a extremely biased way

This is so werid to read. It's a mix of people obviously hating Digibro , obviously defending Digibro, obviously not giving a fuck about anything and not knowing why are they even here and a small sliver of people who actually try to have a discussion worth two cents. Some points I want to make:
- if you comment here without watching the vid only basing your opinion on the titles and what you saw in the post, chances are your comment is inadequate and wrong even to your own standards. In onther words, dont do that - just quietly skip over to the next thread maybe?
- if you throw shit on people providing their opinions and criticism on a video about providing criticism, then you may be doing something wrong. Pointing out details and facts somebody might have gotten wrong is perfectly fine and needed, but criticising the criticism of a video about criticising videos is just wrong;
- The last sentence is obviously not enough to base your opinion on while ignoring the rest of the vid - see point one;
- Shiting on digi is fun, and defending digi is fun, so if that is the reason you are here, do your thing. Fun is the ultimate goal of all of this;
- Calling every controvential vid that tries to point out flaws and at least partially construcitvely criticise some things (because there si some of that in there, like it or not) attention-whoring (is this how you spell it? duno) is plain stupid;
- This whole rant IS extremely pleasant to listen to;
- This whole rant IS full of shit and many points are as objective as childrens disscussing their favourite colours;
- this post is inconsistent and full of mistakes but fuck that I haven't slept in 20 hours and can't be bothered to edit it right now, hope I got whatever point I was trying to get across - well, across. Fell free to disagree, I'l probably reply once I wake up and can form cohesive arguments that make some semblance of sense.

Since Douchebag Chocolat left, Gigguk is the only anime youtuber I enjoy watching. Everyone was else is too cringey or way too analytical about the littlest of things...like Digibro.

Funnily enough, I knew about Digibro before I knew about Gigguk and I remember one of the primary reasons I started liking Gigguk was because he was nothing like Digibro.

I would really not mind more anime YTers that aren't like Digi, where most of his content is just rambling padded nonsense to draw out the length of his videos to mask how stupid his points tend to be, like how he treats K-On as an intellectual and deep masterpiece because he can't just grasp the idea that his favorite thing is not the smartest thing ever.

Or responding with comments like "My friend also said you're dumb if you don't like it so I'm right." It's a joke that he thinks it's a real argument.
>KLK is creatively animated
Except it isn't.
It's just Imaishi having a huge hard on as usually for and "copying" his favorite animator Mr. Yoshinori Kanada.

Anyway, Digibro just keeps on digging his own grave even further.
Remember guys if you didn't like K-On, you just didn't get it!

The only way I could care less about anything Digibro says than I currently do is if his fanbase and haterbase stopped talking about him so I could maybe forget he even exists.

But, to prevent this from being another complain post:

The only anime youtuber I've seen that virtually always puts out good content is RCAnime. I haven't watched four of his early videos titled "RC Anime Review" and I don't plan on it anytime soon (if ever), but I've seen most of the rest and I have yet to see a single one I didn't enjoy. Sometimes I'll even go back and rewatch his videos because they get me in the mood for watching stuff.

So yeah, seeing that he's almost never talked about, I'll just throw out there that RCAnime is the best anime youtuber. Check his stuff out if you haven't heard of him.

Some others that are mixed but have some good stuff include Ninouh (some decent meta stuff), Pause and Select (picks something small and exceptional about X anime and talks about it, has some reviews though), The Canipa Effect (way too many reviews with a few good vids intermingled), and Mother's Basement (only the opening analyses).

Basically, avoid youtube anime reviewers and the ones constantly trumpeting their taste and you're good to go. Youtube anime reviews are almost universally bad and I wouldn't even recommend the reviews in the above channels. If you must have a reviewer then from what I remember Glass Reflections is okayish (as in "palatable" and "meh", not "good"), but you're really better off figuring out what you want to watch on your own and forming your opinions for yourself.
