A video about the Depp v. Heard trial came up in my YT recommended earlier, and while I reflexively wanted to bail, I gave it a shot. It was a 3.5 hour long banger by what appears to be a criminally underrated channel that is better than every video I have ever made combined, but Jesus Christ I have been simmering with rage about that whole nightmare again ever since watching it. It is literally unbelievable to me that one person could be done so dirty in a situation that's THAT stupidly obvious. I'm literally going to die mad about it.

FWIW, my curated YT experience is pretty good. I follow a bunch of channels where at least some of them post multiple videos daily: news and politics in my mother tongue, official studio channels (for trailers), a few very carefully selected entertainment channels that don't trash creatives for clicks. (Collider Interviews! Criminally underrated!)

The fact that the Subscriptions tab is purely chronological and filterable by a single channel is a godsend. The Watch Later playlist can be set to sort by add date (and it remembers the setting forever). Each video now has a shortcut to add it to Watch Later, which I use much like the Read Later button on ao3 (meaning overly optimistically). On my home page, most of the videos are already from the channels I subscribe to, but on the rare occasion it decides to offer me "Is Thor: Love and Thunder the WORST MCU Movie EVER?!!!!!1!" I can angrily click on the Don't Recommend Channel button -- and poof, gone.

Now if only they would stop increasing the number of ads I have to watch to get through a single video...

What's your opinion about this video analysis about Satti's song showing "the New Greece"?

I have already briefly mentioned this video in a post I made in Greek about Marina.

I found the video exceptionally perceptive, as rarely it is when it is a foreign, American in this case I believe, exploration of anything modern Greek. The YT channel is called “Overthinking It” and, no lie, some extra effort works wonders. He’s incredibly accurate for a man who hasn’t done research on Greek culture and society prior to his analysis of Marina Satti’s song and its reception. I was honestly impressed.

It might not be 100% correct but that doesn’t mean much, even some Greek articles in newspapers were not totally “there” in my opinion.

My biggest objection would be the title “Marina Satti is showing Eurovision the New Greece”, which is not so much a mistake on his part as even in Greece the terms we use are, say, Neo Hellenes instead of Modern Greeks, for example. But in truth Marina is not showing the “New Greece”. Marina was showing a facet of Greece people don’t know or care to know about. That’s totally different.

Whereas we say that foreigners only know about Zeus, the Parthenon, philosophy, that’s not entirely true. Several foreigners know Syrtaki, feta, souvlaki, bouzouki and enjoy those things more, and those are parts of “New Greece”. Some maybe conventionally perceived as such, even. But even those things are too few to represent accurately the “mosaic of Greece”, new or old or whatever.

In Marina’s words, that is. She said in an interview that she wanted to present a glimpse of the mosaic. She wasn’t trying to show a “New Greece”, as in an entirely new entity separated or opposite from an old one, but the Current Greece, as in the “how Greece is faring” as we speak, which interests very few and it is a little odd to have people nitpick even the slightest detail of your history millennia ago but the entire population could self combust into thin air right now and nobody would bat an eye. The American understands more of that in the video, it’s just the title that is slightly odd but it’s also attracting clicks.

I would also however like to comment on Greeks and Europeans’ short memory: Marina is not the first to try this. Many Greek entries were attempting to show more of the “mosaic”. But she is the first in the latest years, when the world has started caring about Eurovision beyond the borders of Europe. It is new to these people for sure.

The juice here is not that Marina tried something supposedly novel. Not at all. The juice here is in WHAT she chose to present. She chose the more heavy-duty Balkan and the more-heavy duty oriental and she mixed it with modern urban rap/ trap culture. This is what the problem was for these people. She is showing something that many Greeks try to reject. THAT is the issue. But she is right. This too is a part of the mosaic.

Greeks just care too much how they look to outsiders. They are constantly afraid that a part of their culture / art will not be appreciated and thus rewarded.

I believe we must be left to do our thing without any poisoning afterthoughts. Some things will definitely not translate well to the global audience. But who cares? Even that is better than sending something that is not true to yourself.

Look at other countries. They send joke entries all the time. We only sent SAGAPO (and even that wasn’t intentionally a joke entry) like 20 years ago and we still can’t recover from the shock. Now we wouldn’t take this lightly either. We just take ourselves TOO seriously.

But if we just do our thing with calmness and confidence and openness to a potential bad result, we will build our own following. I mean. Greece already has a considerable following in Eurovision. Its noughties legacy remains strong and people are rediscovering now the very underrated 70s and 90s. In fact, Greece might be the country that gets the most pressure by Eurofans to send something about Greek culture. I legitimately have never seen comments or nowhere near as many anyway of European people being disappointed at other countries’ entries as much as they are repeatedly at a Greek entry, because it doesn’t have a Greek sound or Greek lyrics. I think this pressure from the Europeans in combination with the mixed receptions once Greece complies has really confused the Greek delegation and the Greek artists.

It seems what the Greek delegation forgets is that it obviously doesn’t have to only be Greek in the lyrics or the instruments. It also has to be, you know, a good song lol

I do think we generally fail to communicate our music very accurately in this contest. I don’t know why. Maybe it’s what I said, we are too scared what others will think and try to “adjust” our music to make it either more Western European or more stereotypey Greek in the monolithic way foreigners view Greece. And hence even the mosaic attempt sometimes falls flat. But even with all those problems, I believe we have our own signature. I just want us to reinforce exactly that. Do it more, do it better and do it UNAPOLOGETICALLY. Zari is nowhere near the ideal attempt but it is an attempt nonetheless, a new start that thrives on the unapologetic part.

PS. So far the best example of the Greek mosaic attempt being successful was Alcohol is Free by Koza Mostra and Agathon Iakovidis in 2013 which finished 6th and it could have been higher if so many Europeans had not clutched their pearls at the notion that their kids watching would think alcohol is offered freely at the time 🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️ Different times I suppose. Now everyone is fine that every other entry is basically a strip show 🙃

PS 2. In any case I think it is Marina’s success that Zari caused or, rather, bared the social phenomenon that it did and that even foreign YouTubers are trying to decipher and explain what happened.

Best Underrated Anime Group C Round 1: #C4 vs #C5

#C4: Lesbians with swords

The world is beset by monsters called the Aradama, who can only be cleansed by sword-wielding shrine maidens called the Toji. A young girl named Eto Kanami is studying to become a Toji at one of the main schools. But soon, something—or someone—might catch her eye. The decisions she makes thrusts her into a world of deception, betrayal, and a sinister force that’s been hiding in the shadows for decades…

#C5: A bunch of teenagers are forced to share pain

Katsuhira Agata is a quiet and reserved teenage boy whose sense of pain has all but vanished. His friend, Chidori Takashiro, can only faintly remember the days before Katsuhira had undergone this profound change. Now, his muffled and complacent demeanor make Katsuhira a constant target for bullies, who exploit him for egregious sums of money. But their fists only just manage to make him blink, as even emotions are far from his grasp.

However, one day Katsuhira, Chidori, and four other teenagers are abducted and forced to join the Kizuna System as official "Kiznaivers." Those taking part are connected through pain: if one member is injured, the others will feel an equal amount of agony. These individuals must become the lab rats and scapegoats of an incomplete system designed with world peace in mind. With their fates literally intertwined, the Kiznaivers must expose their true selves to each other, or risk failing much more than just the Kizuna System.

Titles, propagandas, trailers, and poll under the cut!

#C4: Katana Maidens: Toji no Miko

[Admin: Video is from the Crunchyroll Collection YT channel, and they've blocked it in my country. I couldn't find an alternative, so I just downloaded the Crunchyroll one via VPN and reuploaded it here to make sure that everybody can see it.]

Propaganda:

The depth of this show was seriously mindblowing to me. For much of the series it was just a fun romp, with some pretty interesting twists and turns along the way. But as these characters develop, as the plot gets moving, it all comes together in the end. I have not seen a more concentrated concoction of doomed tragic yuri in my life.

Trigger Warnings: Child Abuse, Emotional Abuse, Self-Harm

#C5: Kiznaiver

Propaganda:

Kiznaiver is an extremely underrated work of Studio Trigger’s and is definitely one of their bests. Not just for the animation, but for the impactful story as well. The characters just feel so real, and this show just makes you think about human connection and how much we might care for each other if we shared our pain. Although it can get a little confusing at the end, the sheer raw emotion is what makes up for everything. Every single one of the characters gets developed in ways that made me smile like an idiot.

Very good but severely underrated anime! Would recommend! :)

Trigger Warnings: Emotional Abuse, Fatphobia, Disordered Eating, Implied Sexual Assault (maybe).

The fact that Yuuta is formerly fat is constantly mocked throughout the series, which leaves a bit of a sour taste in my mouth as a fat person watching the show personally. Yuuta, to maintain his thinness, engages in disordered eating by simply eating a small cube of food every day. Said character is also the subject of an attempted sexual assault by a female character, but I don’t remember correctly if that actually happened or if I just got triggered by the way the scene was portrayed.

If you’re reblogging and adding your own propaganda, please tag me @best-underrated-anime so that I’ll be sure to see it.

[luna7822]

i really need to contain myself soon from all of the excitement thats building up in me since long story short i single handedly managed to convince one of my fav extremely underrated yts who basically plays games purely for story and also mostly does blind lps as well to play the oddworld games cuz its literally i shit u not been in the back of my mind in terms of what to suggest for a while now even when i started watching their vids and when i saw the description of said channel that made me wanna suggest it in the first place and now that ive finally managed to get it off my shoulders now i can safely say that im basically abt to corrupt yet another soul to the storm if u catch my meaning one way or another seeing as how were gonna have a blast watching some1 go thru the same shit i went thru back in the summer of 2020 when i was scared shitless and intrigued at the same time for the first time and that i obv know itll be a while till then seeing as how said underrated lper i like has another series to finish that i know a good portion of ppl have been waiting for a while now even if im not involved in whatever shenanigans theyre into or whatever and also another game to finish too but the moment the first part of the first game shows up on my sub feed once enough lps are said and done i will instantly watch/like/comment the thing like theres no tomorrow and absolutely make sure u actual oddworld fans out there get the chance to see yet another poor unfortunate soul go thru the pain and misery thatll eventually pay off in the end once they get to whats basically the best one yet being soulstorm and do make sure that it ESPECIALLY does enough gangbusters that isnt too much but enough to make them happy since theyre extremely underrated besides two certain lps that also did gangbusters by chance since said lper is indeed underrated af and that it would be rly appreciatived too :3

anyways tho u might be wondering to urself """"BuT lUnA wHy CaNt U tElL mE wHo ThIs RaNdOm UnDeRrAtEd LpEr Is AlReAdY?????"""" well actually im gonna be saving that one as a surprise since as of rn i just wanna wait till a few more lps of theirs are done and over with and that i cant wait to see it all happen eventually as well since its rly out of the entire suggestion catagory what i wanna see them play the most for mainly the story/lore and whatnot

overall i cant believe im gonna be the main reason why theyre gonna love this shit in the first place and u all better nickname me the personification of the mudo moon or smth like that in a joking manner or whatever cuz i pretty much in a sense have all the power in the world to be the main reason why theyre gonna love ow in the first place since no1 didnt even bother to do it and i decided to basically take the oppurtunity to do so instead of being nervous to do so but rly tho i just cant wait for them to go thru the same shit that i went thru and i hope that u all manage to give the soon to be existing lps enough appreciation at least since its abt time we all deserve some fun in the sun for once anyways :3

Ronnie Radke reaching out for the YouTube reactors - again!!!

Ronnie Radke published a video thanking the YT reactors all the contribution they made to his band's success. He even named a few, but actually he was talking to them all ❤️

"for the YouTube reactors"

Very very humble and awesome of you to remind the reactors from time to time, you do watch them, always shouted them out, you were the first to react to their reactions, you made this trend! some still remember and still wait for you to do it again! ❤️ Love you for this (too) ❤️

You already got a reply from a reactor ❤️❤️❤️

IAMSICKFLOWS, one of those who Ronnie mentioned in his video by name, made a "reaction" video to Ronnie's TikTok post and thanked him for the shoutout and the humbleness.

Ronnie Radke shouting out the reactors was the coolest move of the year so far! ❤️And this is not the 1st time, he's the ONLY ARTIST giving flowers to these underrated supporters multiple times, even reacting on their videos and blowing up their channel.

I would vote DisneyXD. It was superior to regular Disney.

I don't really remember what cartoon was on what channel but here is a list of underrated cartoons. Please tell me which ones you know and if you liked any of them:

American dragon Jake Long (truly a masterpiece)

Generator rex

Danny Phantom

Foster's home for imaginary friends

Teen Titans (the original version)

Young Justice (it was about Robin and weird son/clone of superman and I don't remember who else)

Ben ten (the original version)

Oh my god I forgot about Winx.

Oh and that one show about girl secret agents I don't remember the name but it was awesome.

disneyxd was more for watching more 'really little kids shows' like mickey mouse clubhouse and i stopped watching it like very very long ago. like to me most channels had one particular cartoon that i associated it with coz it was always at 3 pm after school was i allowed to watch tv at all. disney was for doraemon only im afraid

i have no idea what most of the other cartoons are im sorry😭 danny phantom ive heard of but only recently bcoz i watch a guy called dannyphantomexe on yt (his yt shorts are amazing) and i had to look up his name origin. and ben ten was something i hated im sorry my mind could never accept him just transforming into all these different forms from his watch😭

what i did watch was doraemon (dubbed) on disney (mostly, it also aired on some other channels), shin chan (dubbed) on like a channel that had a local name, phineas and ferb on disneyxd (dubbed and later in english when it was available to switch langs) (that was later and it only aired sometimes and i hated that fact), pokemon (dubbed and later english) on uhhhh idr. if there was anything else on any of these channels, id go over to discovery channel (man vs wild i s still a fav with my father and me), history tv 18, nat geo (classic) and 1 or 2 more channels like this.

this tv hopping went on until i discovered youtube and my parents actually let me use it and then i watched the later seasons of pokemon. i only touched cartoons on tv for the major movies dropping like Doraemon: Nobita and the New Steel Troops (Winged Angels) (still love that movie i could still watch it with my sis but she doesnt watch doraemon😭 i fear its only a thing from the kids that grew around the same age as me)

also this got very long im sorry i have the history of what i watched for entertainment and when in life like memorised and i could go on and on abt what i did after 7th grade (i read and i fell in love with it i watched movies and tv and discovered tumblr and fell into yt with dnp and then dt stuff)

[wozzleblog]

this shit is FIRE 🔥

this guy is mega underrated in terms of indie rap. too bad he doesn't seem to make music anymore 😔 just like his yt channel :[[

[turtleplushi]

i've been following your yt for a long time (ur super underrated btw) but i've noticed that you tend to keep your accounts separate and basically never crosspost? i was just kinda wondering it was ok to talk about/ask you about your yt stuff on here lol

Oh god you found me

It's absolutely fine if you want to ask about that though :) my only real reason for keeping them separate is that my family is subscribed to that channel and I don't think I could handle my dad finding my ao3 account haha

I don't really crosspost at all either because of that, but it's also partially the constant fear of "oh god what if someone thinks I'm stealing art from myself" even though I know that's a ridiculous thing to worry about

Also I don't have a signature on my art over there anyway and it feels a bit late to start doing it now

But also, um. How long have you been watching exactly??? There are some very old videos on there and I'd like to know the horrors you've seen so I can purge them from the internet immediately

[luckystarchild]

who are your favorite underappreciated one piece characters?

i have so many one piece related questions for you lmaoo it's very interesting to read your thoughts + you have a very unique way with words!

speaking of which, i've always thought that if you had a reviewing YT channel it would be a great success! it does take a lot time though editing scripting and all that jazz + difficult to combine with work :')

enough rambling, hope you're having a good day!

My favorite underrated character is probably Smoker. Love him. He is my favorite bastard. I appreciate that he sees the Navy/Marine's corruption and doesn't take orders that fly in the face of his personal morals and pursuit of justice. He's still a cop and therefore a bastard, but he's one of the few who maybe stands a chance at changing things for the better. (Though personally I'd love for him to defect entirely.) Need to track down more fanfics for him, but they were few and far between the last time I checked.

As for a YT channel, the closest I've come is my TikTok account. I like reviewing stuff and think a YT channel would be a good fit for me, but I don't really have the time to make videos consistently, so I don't think it would get much traction.

Hope you're having a good day too! Would love to answer more OP questions. <3
