Sage is taking a break with Anime Abandon, too much stress is getting to him from this year that he hasn't been motivated for working on videos much and the power company shutting everything off in his city didn't help. However, he's going to move to Italy when the apartment's lease runs out and he and his fiancée are going to get married ASAP when he arrives around November, 'cause he hasn't seen her in months. This is because his fiancée can't yet leave the country to live in America for an undetermined period of time, but now people can come back in and so he's getting legal residency in Italy.


EDIT: Internet got finicky while posting, but forgot to mention he's writing a novel during this downtime. It gives him something to do, but it's a story he's had in mind for a long time and he feels he's ready for it.

He jokes about YouTuber burnout right from the gate but holy shit has any e-celeb not fallen face first into Le Depression Hole? Does internet fame just attract headcases?

Surprisingly enough, burning away your youth churning out YouTube videos on pop culture from your bedroom for pennies isn't healthy, fulfilling or sustainable.

How he can afford to live in Italy is beyond me but honestly I never cared for his stuff because he nitpicks. Constantly.

Also trashing Perfect Blue is blasphemy.

Wonder if he is still friends with Hope

Not sure about that, but I recall he mentioned something like that on social media, especially during a period where Hope had some choice words, and her forum on TGWTG subforums was filled with all sorts of flaming and stuff, and I think someone asked Sage about that and he just bluntly said 'Yeah, she hates bronies'. Man the the TGWTG forums back in the 2000s were crazy.

Perfect Blue is pretty much perfect up until the ending.
 
I saw it with subs and can't recall the line. Not unless the subs fucked it up. The stalker should have died at the end.

Agreed. It's absolutely insane when you examine it and the ending just felt flat. But everything up until then? It delivered what it promised.

Yeah but only because the dub flubbed the final line, thus missing the point of the film lol

Never saw the dub. Do you recall what they changed?

When Mima gets in the car she says "I'm the real thing." In the original Japanese she says it in Rumi's voice

Well that's a fucking stupid change that literally takes away from the rest of the movie. I could understand seeing that and wondering WTF was going on.

Yeah i can only assume it was stupidity on the translators end but then again she doesn't switch accents like in the original when she's speaking to her mother.
