I've been here for a while. Occasionally there's a series that catches my eye (Tiger&Bunny is getting a season 2 despite s1 airing back in 2011 but I'm mildly hopeful and Code Geass has a new projection the works) but for the most part, shit that's 10+ years old or more in more entertaining.

We passed the second anniversary of when this trashfire began three days ago.
As such, I think a rundown of the status of the principal actors is in order.
Since 2019:
1. Vic Mignogna - While he hasn't been in any anime production since he was fired from Funimation and Rooster Teeth, Vic has been working on projects like audiobooks, launched a growing Twitch channel to replace his fan interactions on Unlocked, and even managed to get a convention schedule for 2020 despite the COVID-19 pandemic.
2. Monica Rial - Despite the COVID-19 pandemic bringing a screeching halt to the convention circuit, she is still getting roles from Funimation. She's also lost weight, but time will tell if she can keep it that way. Also, still engaged to @Ron Toye.
3. Jamie Marchi - No notable roles have been mentioned, still fat, and not married.
4. @Ron Toye - Lost his job at the Tuttle Group, but is with another company. He spends his time on Twitter, hunting down "harassers." Still engaged to Monica.
5. Funimation - Despite another voice actor, Chris Thurman, being caught having inappropriate interactions with minors, a decrease in staff due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the company has moved out of Flower Mound and has purchased Crunchyroll.
- All the other voice actors involved in this madness have not changed much, except Kara Edwards getting married and the death of Brad Venable.
6. Ty Beard - His lawfirm saw many of the staff leave such as Senator Bryan Hughes and Jim Bullock. Recently, he caught COVID-19.
7. @MarzGurl - Still irrelevant to the masses at large, thus continuing her quest for clout.
8. Allison Cooke (hanleia) - Eternal DFE mode.
9. @Shane_Yes_That_One - Claims he has moved on Weeb Wars, but recent tweets have shown otherwise.
10. Nick Rekieta - Has largely moved on to other topics since the lull in appeals. His YouTube channel finally broke the 100K subscriber milestone and has launched a second channel, Rekieta Media (which has recently hit the 10K subscriber milestone).
- Yellow Flash, ThatUmbrellaGuy, and Hero Hei have moved onto other topics, but each of their channels has also hit major milestones.
- SenpaIsHome has drifted into further irrelevancy.
11. ANN - Zac Bertschy died and Lynzee Loveridge has taken his position.
12. Many Twitter accounts from KickVic & ISWV have been flagged & banned, too numerous to count.
13. Noted KickVic supporter, Andrew Stallings, died.
14. PrettyUglyLittleLiars closed down.
15. T. Greg Doucette - Got married, still grifting, still in debt.
16. J. Sean Lemoine - Still suffering from the effects of the West Nile virus.
17. Jessie Pridemore - Still bad with liquor and is willing to #MeToo any unfortunate soul that tries to have a one night stand with her.
18. Emmett Plant - Got married to Neysha Perry, but DMs were released of him hitting on female members of his Discord.
19. Jennifer Lynn Hunt - Moved to Oregon, caused friction within KickVic and the convention scene, ostracized by LawTwitter, still crazy.
20. LawTwitter - still faggots.
21. Rooster Teeth - has been a nonstop trashfire since Vic was fired.
22. @kittenpoptart - Exposed for the drama whore she is.
That's all the notable characters in this shitshow that come to mind for me.

Ever look at the aftermath of a battle and think "Damn, I wish the crater was bigger and still on fire."? That's kinda how I feel. I look forward to more inevitable skirmishes between anime fans and the voice actors they bitch about. Maybe someone will drop a fat man to the little boy that has been the Weeb Wars.

For now the whole thing is at a stop, nothing too big is happening and the other minor happenings are on Twitter, henceforth not really interesting.

Fansubs*
Funi still fucks up subs on it's own & has a hugely bad record be it inaccuracies to straight-up agenda propaganda. Crunchyroll is the same, but now with Funi absorbing CR. It's getting worse.
Liking sequels is a mental disease, & this shows it
He actually can do that. If he becomes a V-tuber.
Just a talking fancy-pant with a mouth. It's possible. Seriously, I've seen a Talking Burger as an avatar before from some Japanese guy reacting to Smash reveals.

I have a feeling that's dependent on the appeals.
If the dismissal is upheld in full, everything pretty much fizzles, with KickVic hooting like howler monkeys and ISWV finding ways to cope. Vic would probably be in a very bad place.
But, if the court reverses (even in part), especially against all defendants, it's going to be fireworks. KickVic and most importantly Lawltwitter are going to have to cope and explain why three higher judges said "lol no u" to Chupp, and will have to do logical gordian knots trying to explain why SCOTX will reverse the 2AC. Vic Kicks Back breaches $300k within 48 hours of he decision. Nick, HeroHei, UmbrellaGuy, etc, find newer heights of grift. The defendants will melt down, especially Ron.

Yeah, no. Almost got there but were short on the hours. Tried to pad that with music streams and it diluted the average viewers so we figure affiliate is fine for now, and if we get to partner, we go from there.
Really just More focused on creating the best show rather than hitting partner.
you know. Quality over quantity.

Vic announced on Twitter that he’ll be at New Jersey in the last day of February to do a signing. It’s called the New Jersey Collectorfest.
I couldn’t archive since this was posted via phone.

If that was closer to my area I'd be tempted to go. Granted, I already have Vic's autograph, but I'd gladly get it again.

Something something archive, faggots.
The con in question:
(Archives are at like 8500 in queue wtf)
According to @5t3n0g0ph3r, the con takes place at "Wayne Police Athletic League". Fucking lmao. Italian gay pants man has come full circle and is at a popo place again, but instead of being hired and then doing audiovisual stuff, he's there because of audiovisual stuff.

It's funny because I've been trying to archive three links now (two of them are the ones mentioned above).

I'm assuming it's because Murca is now ridin' with Biden that everyone is archiving fucking everything.

It's been infuriating getting a dox wrote up and fighting the archiving websites. Half the time I had to wait a fucking eternity to get shit archived. Facebook pages, for whatever reason, would not go in for me and that's been an issue. That's with both Archive.is and the wayback machine.
