Going Forward 

Please do whatever content makes you happy, i know we all will support you!

The sheer amount of videos you've been putting out with the quality they're at has been STAGGERING. The burnout sounds super real and I cannot imagine how draining it must've been. You make videos on topics I haven't really thought much about, and your enthusiasm has always been the driving point of the videos. Wherever you go in the future, I'll be super excited to see what you do next.

Don't worry. You can make whatever content makes you happy. I personally don't care if you make the retrospectives as background projects. I kinda missed your old content, so I'm more than happy you'll be bringing those back. 😊 Hopefully, you and your family will feel better soon. Cheers

Hey, more of a lurker then a commenter here but I just wanted to say from all the lurkers that any new ideas in the future we will support! All the love from the lurkers Marcy

Love you, queen! Take all the time you need.

Your mental health is of course the most important thing here, but even beyond that, I think- don't feel scared to experiment. I follow your content primarily for you- when you are passionate about, or interested in at least, something, it shows, and it is always delightful to hear. And I think I'm not the only one who thinks this. True, we're not your friends or family or whatever, but there is still a reason we're here, and it's not just the content.

Thank you so much Marcy for being so upfront and open with us. I hope everything goes well for you mentally and everything you aspire towards does well. I can’t thank you enough for all the good memories you’ve given me and I’ll always support you as long as I can.

Take care of yourself Nezumi. I'm glad to have watched your streams and retrospectives, but I wish you to work on your health first and foremost. I can't wait to see where you go Nezumi. You're talented, loved, and a wonderful person, don't let any voice in your head say otherwise. I can't wait to see what happens next ❤

Sending support and love to you and your family during this time. I hope you feel better soon, Nezumi. I'm looking forward to whatever your next steps are!

Your Ace Attorney videos are some of the best content I've ever watched, and all your other retrospectives are easily favorites of mine. I've watched the 11 hour compilation of the AA retrospective several times, and that's ignoring how many times I watched the individual 2 hour parts when those were out. I can't wait to see where you go with this channel and your ideas.

Your output has been nothing short of prolific, and your videos speak for themselves. Please take all the time you need, people will still be here for it when it does come out. 💜

I think this sort of change is super necessary and understandable!! You should be prioritizing yourself, your mental health, and what is fulfilling to you, so any step towards that is super positive in my book. From my perspective, one that it seems like many others share, we love what you make not because it happens to discuss things we already like, but because it contains your thoughtful perspective and your humor! I can (and have) watched plenty of your videos that covered things that I had never engaged with before and still really enjoyed them because I liked hearing what you had to say and how you presented your thoughts. Honestly, as much as I’ve enjoyed your retrospectives, I’m looking forward to a greater variety of topics/approaches going forward, both because it’ll be fun for me as a viewer and because it’ll hopefully be more fulfilling and enjoyable for you as a creator. I’ll be keeping you in my thoughts as you go through this rough period in your life, and I hope that these changes help you feel healthier and happier!

Followed you after your collab with Save Data Team and greatly enjoyed your vibes! Have only watched your FNAF video so far and it was great, but i'm here cause you're a really cool person so whatever you make i'm sure the vibes will still be good! Health comes first, take care of yourself!

I love these new ideas and I hope this helps you as well, even just a little bit.

totally understandable! i’m excited to see what’s going to come from you and i (and many others) will be here to support you! your script writing, editing style and overall personality is what we’re here for so, do what makes your mental health more bearable! do take care :)

Id love to just hear more of your feelings about things you love. At the end of the day the reason (for me at least) that your retrospectives are so captivating aren't just the well written analysis, but its the love and heart you put out in every single scene of every game or media you talk about. Like, your AA trilogy videos are amazing to me, not just because its a good analysis of the series, but because in almost every Case you talk about you put in a personal experience, your own view of it, how you love it or how you dont like it as much. And I resonate with that heart and joy for something you love a lot. So more of your own thoughts is, in my opinion, always gonna be great, whether its a 2 hour long video or a 10 minute one. You're amazing Nezumi, and your content is a joy to watch every time. Keep going, I believe in you

take your time and do whatever you need to!! i’m sure whatever you make will be a fun ride

the sheer volume of long-form content you put out is crazy. there are a lot of essayists who only publish one hour-long video per year, or biannually. given that you’re experiencing multiple life stressors, hours-long video game essays can definitely wait.

Take as much time as you need

I found your channel thanks to those let's say more "Experimental" videos to be honest, I remember listening/watching you talk about all these fascinating, weird, interesting topics while I worked on College stuff (like legit, your stuff got me through a LOT of my assignments); so, although I do really like your retrospective stuff, I am kinda happy to hear you are bringing back the idea of those older videos? I hope the circumstances you have found yourself in improve, please take as much care as you can!!! ówò

It takes a lot of bravery to admire you're not feeling good to such a large audience, and I massive appreciate your transparency. I've kind of felt burnout from creating stuff before, and the biggest video I made was only approximately 30 minutes. I can't imagine the amount of pressure to make multiple multi-hoir long videos. Plus, I really like your shorter videos and REALLY LIKE your silly lower-effort things like the ending skit with DR3. I think those would be really videos when you are completely burnt out and have no other ideas but need some video to pay the bills. We'll, I hope these new possibilities give you a Jimmy neutron brain blast!

Just became a fan off of your long form content (specifically getting back into ace attorney after years of me playing it as a kid). Take all the time you need please! I can’t wait to see what you do in the future!

Hugs

Your mental health is priority! The fact that these long ass videos haven't dropped in quality and have stayed as good as they are is a testament to how much you care about both your channel and your audience. And I know for a fact your audience will be respectful and understanding about it :)

Recently discovered your channel and it’s gotten me through so much recently, thank you so much but please do whatever you think is best and care for yourself :) sorry I couldn’t give more! Love your stuff :D

Don’t worry about appeasing us, we’re here for you regardless of what changes you do with your channel. Changing things up makes the creative process so much more rewarding, and I think it’ll help make your content even better in the long run. I’m looking forward to seeing what’s next!

I will just say I really like your content but often dont have 2 hours to spend. Shorter videos of similar quality would be awesome for me! But your health and happiness comes first, do what you need to for you!

I just like watching your content, can’t wait to see what comes next!

You and your content mean so much to me and I'm excited to see all the things that you wanna do!! Take care of yourself! ❤

As one of those newer viewers (found you really funny during recent the AJ streams on save data’s channel and went to check your channel out), I’m just excited to see what you put out as I continue engaging in the backlog of content I’m only just now discovering. I know empty words from a random person on the internet can only do so much, but I genuinely hope these changes improve your wellbeing, not just because of the content that would follow but because I like when other people are living happily whether I know them or not :)

honestly i think the best part of your work is the soul you impart it with, whether i love what you’re discussing or havent even heard of it the thing that stands out is the love you have for it. honestly you can do whatever you want forever i will probably still be here

Just found your channel through the AA retrospectives. Excited to watch through some of your backlog as you continue to work on new content.

I just found your channel like yesterday and ive already binged 3-4 of your longer essays. Do what you gotta do fam. You've made some evergreen pieces of art that will keep bringing new eyes to your work while you take the time you have need to manage life. Looking forward to what new paths you'll take once you get moving again.

So excited to see you bring back more of the old stuff too!

I love your videos and they are genuinely some of the most wonderful things I’ve ever seen, they have managed to give me hope and joy unlike any other videos on RU-vid and that’s why I’d prefer you make them knowing that you’re happy! Take all the time you need, you’re health and happiness is what’s most important

I watched the DR video with my partner and we both enjoyed it a ton (especially your criticism of Chihiro's treatment and analysis of the ending's meaning). I'm curious about your creative process, would you ever consider doing an AMA/FAQ video? regardless, I'll keep watching!

I've only just recently found your channel and love the vibes, please do what you need to and take care of yourself

I have been loving all the videos you’ve been making. Just keep doing what makes you happy!

I've loved your retrospectives, but also "The Danganronpa 3 Experience" is one of my favorite of your videos. I don't doubt that I'll enjoy whatever videos you create, and I imagine others feel the same!

I’m excited to see what you have coming big and small! I really enjoyed your back catalog back when I was waiting on the rest of the DR videos.

Can’t wait to see what you make! Always a pleasure to hear you talk about what you love.

I'm a bit late since i was busy earlier but thank you for being so honest, the stress and burnout sounds like it's taken a toll on you and i hope things get better, honestly I'm excited to see more variety and what the future holds for whatever you choose to do, do whatever helps you be happy and take your time!

Make whatever changes you need. Here's hoping things become better.

Your retrospectives and analysis vids beforehand have been some of my favorites i've seen on this site, ever! So the fact that you're doing more analysis videos in different more creatively fulfilling ways honestly makes me really excited! I hope this is nicer for you, and I hope you and your family will feel better soon enough! Much love Nezumi, wish nothing but the best 💙

I wasn't subscribed to your channel before, but your videos have found their way to my main page. And I've enjoyed them very much. And this video basically gave you a brand new subscriber. I respect your honesty and willingness to share your mental problems. Hope it will be better. I'm sure your audience will understand and support you all the way. Stay safe and do whatever you feel is good for your health.

Excited to see more cool stuff you come with. Hope everything gets better for you and your family. Much love

Hope it gets better soon! This appeared in the recommended and I’ll definitely check your channel out!

I’m so excited to see what you have planned! health in any form in always first, and being there for those who need it is such an Important part of it. I’ll be here enjoying your old videos and excited for new ones, the ones you are happiest and healthiest making!

Yours its good content, take your time 👍

really excited to see your new stuff!!! ill always be tuning in and im sure the rest of us will too! please do what you need to be safe and move towards a better place mentally and stuff. we'll stick around even if the videos arent 5 hours long i promise :D

all of that is completely understandable! we'll all be here for you and everything you create. and like i always tell you- i'm always looking forward to your next video, or anything you happen to create! and no matter what you're doing, i'll always support you ❤️

Take care of yourself, Marcy. Being a "content creator" is notoriously bad for one's mental health. I'll never complain about you putting yourself first!

Your retrospective videos have helped me get through so many deadlines and were what introduced me to your channel, but I ended up watching your other videos too and I loved them! Please do what you need to not burn out and take it easy o9 honestly even if it takes 10 years between each AA retrospective it'd be worth the wait c: I look forward to seeing the different kinds of content you have planned! 🙏 Hope your family situation improves too!!

Thank you for the transparency! I just started watching your content literally in the last couple weeks, and really enjoying my time so far with your point of view. Get some rest bud, you deserve it!

Do whatever stuff you prefer! I’m sure it will be great :)

You are such a huge inspiration to me gal! When I came out I only occasionally saw your videos, but as a writer and someone who deeply enjoys your content, you are such a huge impact on my writing and view of media as a whole! Do the type of content you want, I'm still gonna be such a huge supporter of yours gal! Good luck on your future of content on here! I will be patiently anticipating your videos showing up on my feed!! Much loves from Jackie!!!

Do whatever content makes you happy, every content of yours (before and after the retrospectives) has been great so anything will be wonderful I’m sure :D

I’ve been following you since the Future Diary video days. I’ve always loved your shorter and stand alone analytical content. So I’m happy to just sit back and watch whatever content that you’ll share in the future. Hope you have a good day Nez.

I just like listening to you talk about things you enjoy! So it doesnt matter what form of content that is to me, Ill support whatever you end up mainly doing! And good luck with mental health stuff, I know how rough it can be💜

NezumiVA, your video essays have gotten me through so many long drives, and I still have so much of your backlog to experience. I’ll eat up whatever you put out, I’m so grateful!

Thanks a lot for sharing this update. I’m sorry to hear things have been very stressful for you and your family. I hope that whatever you have planned moving forward really helps you out both financially and mentally.

Seeing my house .WAD as b roll makes me excited to see what you'll come up with in new videos!

i love your content no matter what you make!! lately all of your videos and streams have been a huge source of comfort for me in my own struggles because they inspire me to be passionate and analyze my own favorite things too. even when i don't know context about a media i love hearing your thoughts about it no matter the type of video, because truth be told no matter what the type of videos you make your passion and thoughtfulness and creativity shines through and is honestly contagious. please focus on what will make you happy and do the things that will make you feel passionate about creating again, you have a ton of people whose lives you've touched who will stick by you and enjoy whatever you make. i'm sending you all the best wishes!!!!

Keep doing whatever you think is best for you, I found your work though your Ace Attorney vids just as I was getting into the series and watching each part as I finished each case in the first two games was a really nice experience! What you do is fantastic so please do whatever you think is right to be as happy and comfortable as you while doing it, that's always what's most important! Hope everything works out for the best (:

I dont usually comment, but I just want to say I love your content and I will support you in whatever you choose to do! Thanks for treating us so well!

Please take all the time you need and change what you want! I really appreciate all the work you do and I'm totally okay with doing what it takes to help you out as an audience member

Thank you for being transparent with us

love ur videos!! will watch whatever u put out!

Definitely do what you feel comfortable with. If you want to make smaller parts of bigger projects, or smaller all around stuff then go for it! I feel like this past year and stuff has been crazy draining, so I feel ya!

I love your retrospective content a lot..I really REALLY love them. But I'm glad that you're gonna do them more infrequently so you don't overwhelm yourself. You should always do what won't make you so stressed. Make what makes you happy :D otherwise the videos won't ever be fun for us if you make it just a strict job. Keep up the great work ^^

Every single thing you do is a delight to see, regardless of length- take care of yourself, we'll all be here cheering for you no matter what!

been watching the channel since 2021 and i just wanna say i wish nothing but the best for you! the fact that you’re able to put so many quality videos out as much as you do is already insanely impressive, but you always come first. take care of yourself, and i’m looking forward to seeing the new changes in your content!!!

Take as long as you need and do whatever you need to do to feel better, queen. Love your content, and am happy to support you with my views, comments, and likes where I can. Stay strong. Whatever's going on in your personal life, I hope it gets better.

I love your older and newer videos, good luck with your audience!!

Always do what's best for u!!

Will be excited for any content you put out! One of my favorite creators to watch, wishing you and your family well. Can’t wait for Apollo Justice and to see what else you come up with!

Hoping the best for you! Your future plans sound fun :D We're all here for a good time, no need to constantly stress over big projects-- especially when you have so much more on your plate.

It's when you are at your best and most rested that you will be able to put out your best content, and as an audience member I will be patient for your videos if it means they will be sustainable for you, because you make awesome content!!

the retrospective type videos are really great but i genuinely dont mind watching any other content from you keep up the good work and dont ever let anything slow u down i hope you feel and get better 🙏🙏🙏

take the time you need and follow your creative passions! you’re health (mental/physical and creative) is what matters most

Wishin you the best and rooting for ya all the same. Hoping you find a better place for yourself as far as your channel, and especially in your personal circumstances.

We appreciate the transparency. You do everything you need to do to take care of yourself and your loved ones, that comes first. I really like your videos and look forward to what you personally enjoy putting out. We’re here to support. 🙏🏾

I'm new to your Channel and while i will say your documentaries so to speak are most certainly the reason i subscribed it isn't going to change the fact that you are someone who has gained my respect and support for two major reasons these being that your maintaining transparency but also doing what you believe is correct to protect your family which is something i personally think is magnitudes more important then anything else and second because your really good at explaining things in a way thats veary easy to understand the last reason admitted I do think is as major as the other two and it is honestly more of a personal preference but you just are really good at maintaining professionalism while also being completely genuine which is NOT easy at all and honestly i really respect those things about you dude keep up the good work but more importantly keep your priorities straight your and your family's health and safety are the most important things

thank you for taking care of yourself! i actually found your channel through the umineko video, because i always love seeing other people talking about this wonderful little sound novel, and i'm planning on catching up with the streams once i get a bit of time (so, you know, like twenty years from now :P). i look forward to seeing what kind of off-the-wall content you make for yourself!

You’ve been doing so much honestly, I was suprisse you hadn’t started slowing down yet

4:09 MARCCY,, I'VE BEEN WAITING FOR SOO LONG FOR MORE OF THESE AND I'M SO HAPPY THAT THEY'RE WHAT YOU WANT TO MAKE ASWELL AHHHHH. It's hard given your circumstances and the general restlessness of life nowadays to get some quality time and rest to yourself, so I really hope you can get some more time to chill out like this, back in 2022 I went through a lot of your backlog and i enjoyed it and honestly it gave me comfort and a bunch of hope. Anyway love you take careeee

I'm glad ur taking time for yourself Nezumi, hope u get better!

Love you and I’m proud of you!

Lots of love to you and your family, Marcie! Please take care of yourself- that has to be the priority. I’ve enjoyed your content very much and am excited to see what’s coming next ❤

No matter the type of videos you make, I for one, will enjoy them. I've been watching your videos on and off for the past year and a half, and have never been disappointed by their sheer quality! Thank you for all you've done, and please take care of yourself 💚

I only just found your channel and don't know you too well as a content creator but I find you videos to be a nice thing to listen to while I'm at work. Please do whatever you think is best for your physical and mental health. I know I'll enjoy any essay, analysis, or opinion piece you'll put out. I'll stick around to see where this goes and support you with my views. Hope everything gets better they always do in the end.

Please take your time, I've really come to love your content recently after the save data collab but I also loved it from moment one when I found the ace attorney videos, the core factor is that it's your videos and no matter how long it takes or what it is, I'm going to love it for sure (the things you teased already sound awesome) but once again also take care of yourself, no matter when you're gonna be great 🫶🫶

Take the time you need. Can't wait to see what you decide to do, love your older content as well as the retrospectives.

I only discovered you today and subscribed! Loveeeeeee your danganronpa videos and can’t wait to watch them all because I love your take and how detailed it all is (other than having literally nobody to rant to about the series) aswell as your other stuff and I just want to say, you do YOU. Focus on your mental health and your family, you are important and number one to you and I’m sure all of your long time subs will agree! I hope you’re doing okay ❤ sending tons of love from Ireland ❤

Its good to consider how you are feeling, and what energizes you when making media. Honestly it shows a great dedication to what you love to do that you are analyzing and shifting gears. I bet the channel will become even more fantastic with the effort! (Looking forward to more Umineko too.)

Take care of yourself ! Sending loads of good vibes ❤

I hope whatever your endeavors leads you its a good place. Big changes are scary but, in time, you can adapt to them. Or at least I belive you can.

Your type of content is great and i will support it regardless of topic Good luck with this change! I hope your family's situation gets better soon

I wish you the best and I look forward to whatever you do next! I've been following since before your Danganronpa stuff and I'm so thrilled to hear your shorter vids will come back!! ^_^ I adore all your analysis, and I'm really looking forward to hearing about more things you love in the future

I love your content and Im so excited to see what comes next. Please just make sure to take care of yourself and do videos that make you happy. We will be here regardless because we are here for you. 💗
