THE CLOUDY CROW CONSISTENCY ARC BEGINS!!! (Actual Upload Schedule?! + More Frequent Uploads + Future Plans/Perks)
🕑 Added 2020-08-23 23:16:58 +0000 UTCYo what's up guys! First off I'd like to thank everyone that's been supporting me lately while I've been trying to sort out the channel and many other behind-the-scenes issues that I've been having. I know content has been very dry lately but I have a lot of exciting news that should make all of that a thing of the past. Also this is probably going to be a long post but I made sure to fill it with exciting announcements and cool things to look forward to!
(Real quick, before I get into the news, I've got a bunch of uploads scheduled for the next few days which include Problem Children Ep 2, Zettai Karen Children Ep 1, and Japan Sinks Ep 1! (These are not series that I will be adding to my current list yet. These are just Free Episode Reactions that I wanted to knock out for the Cloud Champions members.)
Now for starters, I've officially created a schedule for all content that I will be posting to Patreon and Youtube! The schedule is pretty strict though so today I'll just be giving a rough idea of what it's going to look like so that you guys know what to expect. I want to be 100% certain that I can actually manage this before I post any concrete schedule but once I'm sure, I'll be explaining more in a video on the channel. Right now it's going to look like this:
Monday- Seasonal Anime Post
Tuesday- Sponsored Anime Post
Wednesday- Seasonal Anime Post
Thursday- Sponsored Anime Post
Friday- Seasonal Anime Post
Saturday- Sponsored Anime Post
Sunday- Sponsored Anime Post
So from this outline you can see that I want to try to Post Daily to Youtube and Patreon with Seasonal Anime Posts Every Mon, Wed, and Fri and Sponsored Anime Posts Every Tues, Thurs, Sat, and Sun! Some things that you can't see here that I want to implement is that Patrons will be getting around 2-Day Early Access for Sponsored Anime Episodes! Also due to the 2-Day Early Access, even though both YT & Patreon will be getting sponsored anime posts on the same days, Patreon will always be 1-2 Sponsored Anime series ahead of YT. Lastly, with this schedule I should also be able to cycle through ALL Current Sponsored Anime every week! (Worst-case scenario, I want to shoot for uploading every series once every other week)
Now I'm sure that some of you guys might look at this and worry about me burning myself out so I just wanted to post some details that will hopefully reassure you guys that I'll be perfectly fine.
1.) This schedule is meant to be difficult! I want to try to push myself to see if I can manage having an actual upload schedule while also seeing how much I can comfortably handle so that I know whether or not if I need to add more to or cut back from my schedule in the future.
2.) This is only temporary! I only plan to keep this schedule going until these current sponsored anime are finished. Afterwards, I should have a clean slate that will help for me to make any adjustments that I need to the schedule.
3.) I will be getting a solid amount of downtime. I won't be cutting any corners when it comes to sleep and I made sure to account for time where I can sit back and play games, get some rest, or just take some time away from YT for a bit. (You guys can see the Upload Schedule here but I've actually made a schedule for myself where I've written down all of the times when I want to Wake up, Sleep, Record, Take a break, etc. throughout the day)
4.) I not only owe this to you guys, but I also owe this to myself. All of you that have taken the time to Sponsor these anime and all of you that have taken the time to Subscribe to any of the Tiers deserve more. I feel bad thinking back on the month waits between episodes and I think it's safe to say that everyone has waited long enough so even though I can't make up for that time lost, I hope to at least be able to show you all that I have made very real strides towards ensuring that it never happens again. Also I feel like I won't be able to really forgive myself until I'm able to steer my channel back on course and take things more seriously from now on.
5.) I Love Anime! I'm sure that there are plenty of people that have burned themselves out even while doing something that they love but I don't feel like that'll be happening to me anytime soon. Of course this channel is slowly becoming more and more like a job every day but the awesome comments and support that you all show really makes it all worth it in the end so just know that you all are a massive reason why I love doing what I do. On top of that, I never really feel like, "Aw man, I have to get up and react again today..." because I'm always excited to see what happens next! I genuinely love the vastly different stories and characters that each of these anime provide so it never feels like watching anime is getting old for me. Plus I have tons of other non-anime/non-reaction related content planned so I should have plenty of variety to spice up every day for us!
Now that all of the serious junk is out of the way, time for New Sponsored Anime Plans!!! I've been brainstorming a couple of changes/additions that I wanted to make and one of the additions I'm most excited for is bringing back a Viewer Suggested Anime system! Alongside the Sponsored Anime, I want to create a number of polls where you guys can vote for any series of your choice to be added to the Schedule! On YouTube I will be posting a public poll for everyone and here on Patreon I will be posting a poll where different tiers might come with special voting benefits to help tip the scales in their favor a bit! I've even thought of ways to balance things so that Patrons will have a satisfying impact on the polls while giving a slight advantage to the YT viewers through sheer numbers. (This will be coming after we finish the current sponsored anime so there may be a few changes made between now and then).
And that should be everything for today's post! Thank you all for reading this far if you have, I appreciate the heck out of every single one of you and look forward to many new and exciting plans in the future! Also make sure to leave any thoughts you might have in the comments! :]

Oh man that's definitely something I'd like to do but it might be a while until I get to that đ Hopefully once I'm able to get a second PC so I can use this one to render older series while I use the newer one to work on ongoing/new series

Man I can't wait to see it either đ Next episode should be coming very soon too so the wait won't be much longer!
