Idea for next video: The Cost of Dreams. I'm considering studying characters who betray/sacrifice their loved ones for the sake of achieving their dreams. I'm thinking D-16/Megatron from Transformers One, Griffith from Berserk, and Cassandra from the Tangled series.

Beating DK Bananza's story on stream right now! twitch.tv/zealotpara

Still not ready to do schedules, but here's some of my stream plans for the next week or two: Super Battle Golf w/ frens Junji Ito one-shot LIVE reading Donkey Kong Bananza story finale

Art is magic.

Getting a hang of this reaction thing. This time I went MUCH deeper with my post-episode breakdown and I'm really proud of that. youtu.be/zPD7ZAke7k8 #reaction #anime #witchhatatelier

Despite being Disney Jr. shows, Sofia the First and Elena of Avalor are thematically rich stories with a lot to love in their characters, stories, music, and much more. So I made a retrospective on these series to share my love for them! youtu.be/S8_VfsR51s4?...

If you've been doing a lot of consuming and no creating, stop worrying about perfection and make that thing you want to make. Hell, don't even finish it, just make a thing and maybe even share it with someone or post it.

Early look at my upcoming Sofia the First & Elena of Avalor retrospective

A theme I think I'm seeing in Witch Hat Atelier so far is the idea that art is magic. I even said it myself in my reaction that I would be invested in watching Coco's artistic skills improve over the course of the series even if it wasn't about learning how to wield magic.

Doing my very first anime reaction to the Witch Hat Atelier two episode premiere! Off to a fun start, definitely checking out future episodes if my health permits! youtu.be/sdm-IBEyrvs?... #anime #reaction #witchhatatelier

Pumpkin's having a hard time getting around lately because of a neurological deficiency common in boxers. We think she's older than the shelter originally told us she was, so we're not sure how much longer we have with her. Just wanted to take and share some new pics while I can.

Running it back with more Final Fantasy 15! Live Now! www.twitch.tv/ayasunavt

BANANZA IS BACK! twitch.tv/zealotpara

been editing this video for a week and still not halfway done 😭

First stream in a while! Come say hi, I miss you! twitch.tv/zealotpara

If any of my moots need someone to talk to, my Discord dms are always open to you. I don't really look at twt/bsky anymore so I'm likely to miss your posts, but if y'all are venting on here and feel like nobody is seeing them, vent in my dms and I'LL see it :>

WHAT IS ELENA OF AVALOR EVEN ABOUT 😭

I'm collecting b-roll for my Sofia the First & Elena of Avalor retrospective, and just in this clip alone there's so much fun and dynamic animation from Elena's show.

Can confirm my merch looks very good in person! Thanks to @katdragonzshop.bsky.social katdragonz.com/collections/...

Everyone's so creative!

posting a different image to test if this one is just a black screen

is what i would say if bluesky didn't make it a black image??? lemme try again

Update on my presence at the Prima invitational. Good luck to everyone playing! 🧡💜💚

Yet another moment in my life where I have to give up on a bunch of things I was excited about because my brain and body tell me I'm not allowed to do the same thing for too long 🙃

I've done it! After two failed attempts at recording because of my health, and many hours spent trying to find the right music, "My Favorite Disney Princesses | Sofia and Elena" is ready for the visuals to be added!

I do want to return to streaming soon but to a lesser degree for now because by focusing so much on the grind I've been missing out on just doing pointless things with people and valuing those moments without making content out of them.

I'm not live but I'm in call along with Aya's first reaction to The Amazing Digital Circus!

Guess what character I'm writing about here. Hint: They're not from an anime.

"Holy shit" indeed

I made it into Daily Dose at 5:43 but nobody will ever know it's me and Twee because they got the name wrong 😭 www.youtube.com/watch?v=-ByP...

I finally reacted to the Casefiles finale! youtu.be/QxaXh7YT-GM

I wasn't expecting to get so many sweet comments on this video! I was kinda worried it was lacking in writing quality compared to some of my other ones, but people seem to be deeply resonating with it!

Gintama's Red Spider arc has a prevalent theme about making the choice to be better than what your past has shaped you to be. I analyzed this theme through the amazing characters of Jiraia, Tsukuyo, and Gintoki. www.youtube.com/watch?v=r2u_... #gintama #videoessay #gintoki #tsukuyo

I'm getting back on my IV therapy this morning and I expect (hope) to get some energy back so I can return to streams, however I'm going to avoid making stream schedules for now as I want to spend more time with people outside of making content.

Check out this poll in my YT community tab to help me decide how I should approach my style of reaction content moving forward. youtube.com/post/Ugkx3dR...

Now for my FAVORITE part of making videos that totally doesn't take forever...grabbing footage 😃(I already spent all night just trying to find the right music)

It's Saturday time to make art and play games! Live Now! www.twitch.tv/ayasunavt

I hate to confess I'm kinda sick of Sonic rn 😭burnout's a bitch

For fans of pey talks anime's Frieren videos, I recommend the less popular but no less enjoyable breakdowns by Comfy Lilin They have a great sense for what they enjoy in this series and articulate it well and have been a big motivator to myself getting back into making essays.

The script for "You are Not Your Experiences | A Lesson From Gintama" is (pretty much) complete and ready to go for narrating! I'm sure with some time away from it and once I start reading it out loud I'll make edits, but next video is coming along! 👀

We're back playing more Detroit Become Human! Come say yo! www.twitch.tv/ayasunavt

Returning to this script and attempting to make this my next video. It's coming along well so far. I think my burnout is finally passing!

🙏

YouTube algo has ran out of video essays to recommend me. I'll take suggestions of YTers and streamers like AyasunaVT, PrincessPopstar, and AiCandii who talk about and show their creative stuff like writing, drawing, storytelling, game dev, psychology etc.

My mind and body just do not want me to create anything rn so I'll probably just be streaming on a whim if at all in the near future. I just need to let myself go through this weird phase I'm in right now because I always come out of these things more motivated than ever.

I just realized that other than neurodivergence, I also relate to Frieren in that we're both going through a stage in our lives where we're trying to appreciate the present due to not doing so in the past. Now we're learning from past experiences we previously thought nothing of.
