The Reviews for Otaku The Series are… in!
Posted: July 17th, 2010 | Author: Coco | Filed under: Fans, Otaku Business | 3 Comments »Hey all you Otaku: The Series watchers out there!
We’re just a hop skip and a jump away from pushing out some new Otaku stuff, so keep a hold on! In the meantime, I thought it’d be nice to pull together some of the nice (and not-so-nice) stuff that has been reported about us in the wide world web! (and don’t worry, I hear there’s more reviews to come!)
Some of you may have seen us mentioned on a lot of great Anime forums, so we’ll skip those. Here’s an interview that we recently did with Heyyaa:
-
Heyyaa Interview with Otaku: The Series creator Goldie Chan and Director James Chen
And some not-so-nice interviews from a non-fan:
Angry Person Part 1
And some more from the same fan after we sent an email: Angry Person Part 2
Generally, I’d like to give the feedback that the series is autobiographical and while saying nasty things about my character, Coco, (who is really me – Goldie) is completely understood in the anonymity of the internet, it’s a bit mean-spirited, no? One of the big issues is that Otaku The Series is being built from the ground-up and self-funded by myself and a few friend-supporters. To put an ad in front of an edited version with a laugh track seems innocuous til you factor in the fact that they’re making money off of something that cost me & my loyal team a year and lots of blood, sweat and tears to create. It’s a great way though to drive traffic to their site, so once again, I understand why they did it, but my heart breaks a bit!
Wooh! But that aside, I’ve been listening to what everyone is saying and YES, I am factoring that into Episode 2 and future pieces. I hope to convert some of the not-so-nice people into Otaku supporters in the future!
Oh, and here’s some nice Youtube comments on Otaku The Series episode 1:
@ToLokyo:
Was sent here by a fan of yours. ^_^/
You guys really put a lot of work into this. Well done!
Hope it breaks out. Good luck!
I’ll feature it for a day on my channel.
Thanks ToLokyo!! You rock!
@deathmute412:
I like it. It has the feel of The Office and Community with some anime thrown in.
GRIN! We love The Office!
