OH! A Potential Threat

Posted by blissmo 17 October 2008 40 Comments

OH! no, another of THAT Yukan!

Whether any of you are interested or not, well, I should have something to say about the new team blog led by Riex, correct? I’m pretty sure with all the traffic they’re getting, everyone should know about them by now. And why should my opinion matter? Well, for one thing, Omisyth and otou-san have joined them, and you know, they’re still here, and yet they’re not. Add digitalboy’s comments on how much Yukan sucks to that despair and you’ve got yourself a very very sad mother. Actually, a mother-figure is far from what I am, but you get the point.

Just so you know, I’m not upset at all despite what was written in the paragraph above—-I just thought a story beginning with an emo would grab your attention—-and all of my previous traitor remarks were really just simple jokes. Seriously, what else could I have said: “Yay, you’re double-crossing us, but I’m glad you’ve found a new level of equal coolness?” In fact, I think OH! is great and it’s a bit late spreading the word, but heck. Anyway, Author stepped up and raised a few negative points about them, but I suppose not everyone can be happy. “Cool” bloggers like Baka-Raptor, Coburn, and more (sorry, my brain’s so stuffed right now I can barely remember the others) have been revealing themselves in their awesome posts as well. So if you think about it, OH! is like a sudden revolution that everyone wants to be a part of, unless Riex really has found a way to brainwash people into following him. If that’s the case, how about sharing the formula for old time’s sake?

    This is something that is over my head because I’m still fairly new here.

    But good luck with that. :P

  • jiff said:

    Don’t worry, blissmo! For what it’s worth, I still read Yukan every day ;)

  • bakaneko said:

    Couldn’t you just send some of your suicide bunnies along the paths of the traitors? :)

  • zenical said:

    Blissmo, just like you read zotaku everytime, I read here too =D. I love it here okay!!

  • Riex said:

    Rawr! <3

    You might want to add in an extra note up there: “Neither otou-san nor Omisyth are doing at OH! what they would normally do at Yukan!”.

    Be sure to catch my intro post a bit later today. You just might like some of it. *wink* Also, WTB (want to buy) IM details! Perhaps I’ll give you the brainwashing secrets then. Muahaha!

  • Kabitzin said:

    He is lying, he just wants to brainwash you too! Don’t fall for it!

  • Martin said:

    Was Author being serious? “…and I don’t like being negative.” That has to be the most tragically ironic thing I’ve read in days!

    As for the site itself, I really ought to get it onto my feedreader. I brushed the idea off as nothing more than an interesting experiment, but as it turns out I denied myself the entertainment of some blogging dorama in the process. *sigh*

  • The Coke Machine » OH! Not another team blog said:

    [...] As Buri-tan has pointed out, some fellow Yukan-ers have betrayed her also joined O!H. Speaking of which.. I still do blog [...]

  • JLeeson said:

    T_T ::cry::
    When I started reading this I literally thought, “Well at least we got that Omisyth guy, I like his blogging style.” Then I read the sentence about him sticking a knife in my back and twisting the handle as much as he possibly could.
    Well, I will compliment them on having the gonads to team blog on another site while knowing just how homicidal blissmo is.

  • biankita said:

    i think it’s because i’m relatively new to anime blogging but i don’t really like the politicking with this “oh noes! another team blog.” for me, if you what’s written makes me keep on reading, i’ll keep going back to the blog.

    the only thing i’m sad about is that writers with their own personal anime blogs are bound to write less on their own blogs. well… except for omisyth because he’s a frickin’ anime blogging machine. :mrgreen:

  • TheBigN said:

    Well, one way or another, OH! is getting notoriety, for better or worse. :3

  • coburn said:

    Now that I’m one of the cool bloggers I can respond to your post by calling you a sellout. Sellout!

    The above post has nothing to do with any nefarious plan to discredit the rest of the blogging world as part of some rise to total hegemony on our part. Nor is it remotely hypocritical. Also, I would strongly advise looking into Riex’s eyes and/or paying attention to that dangling watch of his.

  • Gargron said:

    I don’t know… I don’t like that site. I can’t get the point of what they’re writing, and what I should read, and what is text or navigation or ads… And I have a low opinion about using words like “shit” on websites. (except dasaku.net, there it’s funny). Your blog (and hopefully mine, too) are much better.

    EDIT: Though I think I’ll join their promOH!tion program. ;)

  • Maura said:

    I’m just going to say the same thing as Humane!!lol.

  • Maura said:

    I’m just going to say the same thing as Humane!!lol.

    Would you like to become blogroll buddies with me, I want to create a Dasaku.net blog roll area on my site.

  • 21st Century Digital Boy said:

    I’ve been insulting Yukan way before OH came into the picture. It’s mostly your fault.

  • Impz said:

    I do admit that I have not been reading blogs too often, but how can a blog be a threat? The space for readers is always expanding, so I am pretty sure Yukan and Oi Hayaku cater to very different audiences. THAT and Yukan on the other hand are rather similar. Does that mean Yukan considers THAT to be a threat?

    O_O

    Scary.

  • otou-san said:

    As for the traitors… I imagine Omisyth will still be doing everything he does at Yukan since there aren’t episodic posts at OH. I, for one, will be doing the Yukan podcast exactly as often as I do now… :D

    and just remember – we do Yukan for the love, and OH for the LOVE ALSO YES WE FOLLOW RIEX PERFECTLY WILLINGLY WHY DO YOU ASK.

  • Makoto said:

    Hmm…I don’t think there’s any problem with them joining forces with a powerful-ish new entity bent on world domination.In fact,its entirely up to them to do whatever they want,even if they were brainwashed as some claimed.Apathy is the way forward.

    p.s <3 “mom” XP

  • JLeeson said:

    @otou-san
    gimme back my Omisyth! lol jk, that’s very interesting; no episodic posts? Now I understand why everyone is so confused as to what OH will be doing.

  • Caitlin said:

    The solution is simple: more bunnies with names and a big old blissmo hammer.

  • mellow_bunny said:

    Ya know, I like growth.. OI Hayaku! seems like another part of this growing group of bloggers. On some levels it irks me that this big group has appeared all of a sudden.. but that’s just a natural reaction I guess =x! Who doesn’t want to be the person who pulls something adventurous off? I’m a bit jealous of Riex in that respect I guess.

    Everyone has big plans.. I guess it’s whether they are the same as ours that can cause friction =x

    ALSO BLISSMO NOTICE HOW YOUR COMMENT WASN’T ASKIMETED ON mSPACE?! :DDD

  • LordDanteX said:

    Don’t worry, well clean them out. :twisted:

  • lelangir said:

    Hegemony or [digital] survival, bwahahahah.

  • issa-sa said:

    Errr, when’s he next bloody bunny comic comic out girl???? (Yea, off topic, pfft)

  • blissmo (author) said:

    Okay, this is going to be veeery long.

    @Humane: lol, which is why you should lurk at animenano more often

    @jiff: Thanks! *wipes tears*

    @bakaneko: haha, I was so close to doing just that, but then I got tired from my trip …

    @zenical: Which reminds me, I need to blogroll you guys

    @Riex: I’m pretty sure I’ve got you on my MSN somewhere. You’re just never on when I’m on, and I barely go on the IRC anymore due to laziness.

    @Kabitzin: Don’t worry, people like me never get brainwashed *Riex is cool*

    @Martin: I like blogosphere dorama as well, but it usually depends how serious it is

    @JLeeson: I’m not homocidal! Okay, maybe just a tad bit

    @Maura: Sure thing! I’ll just have to add you later, I’m really lazy :P

    @21st Century Digital Boy: Yeah, I kind of agree

    @Impz: You know, it’d be cool if neither of OH or Yukan wins the ABA for best team blog next year so that the year after that we could be in a fair competition with THAT lol

    @otou-san: Riex has totally brainwashed you, hasn’t he?

    @Makoto: lol, nicely said!

    @Caitlin: Yes, ma’m! Bunnies soon, I hope

    @mellow_bunny: OMG, what did you do! ALL HAIL MELLOW_BUNNY!

    @LordDantex: haha, except I wonder which side otou-san and Omisyth would choose?

    @lelangir: We’d win both

    @issa-sa: Well, you know, I’ve got exams!

  • Baka-Raptor said:

    I’m the true mastermind. Riex is my puppet.

    (Don’t tell Riex I said that.)

  • zenical said:

    I’ll be doing a blogroll page today. I finally created the page. I think yukan is better than OH! =P

  • Kairu Ishimaru said:

    OH SHIT!!!1 :lol:

  • Hynavian said:

    Don’t worry bliss, regardless of how sad a mother you are, we still love ya. :D

  • Oi, Hayaku! » Blog Archive » After this post, feel free to hate me. said:

    [...] trying to beat them? And who exactly are we in competition with? I think my good friend Impz sums it up best: “I do admit that I have not been reading blogs too often, but how can a blog be a threat? [...]

  • Omisyth said:

    :twisted: :twisted: :twisted: :twisted:
    :D

  • tai said:

    I don’t think OH! is any sort of threat to this or any other blog, but I think that their methodology is too aggressive and lacks humility like most animanga blogs. Their latest post seems to show that they Riex realizes this himself, however, at this point he is just trying to establish their place in the blogosphere and we’ll see their true personality shine or shatter once they start producing “real” posts on a regular basis.

    Shine is my guess. But there’s no way to know other than to sit tight and wait to see Riex’s mysterious scheme put to action.

    As the mommy, you should discipline your children more. I think some authors deserve a spanking :)

    “FFVIIKnight said: As the mommy, you should discipline your children more. I think some authors deserve a spanking :)”

    Why am I reminded of delicious doujin right now.

  • blissmo (author) said:

    @Baka-Raptor: /runs off to tell Riex

    @zenical: haha thanks, although OH! are pretty cool too

    @Kairu Ishimaru: Yeah, that about sums up everything

    @Hynavian: But that’s not enough!!

    @Omisyth: :x :x 8)

    @tai: And then we can all hail Riex and OH!

    @FFVIIKnight: Quiet you, it’s past your bedtime

    @mellow_bunny: Because you’re a dirty man :P

  • FFVIIKnight said:

    D:

    There is no such thing as a bedtime with quality anime to watch (like GA-REI -zero- ep3) :)

  • mellow_bunny said:

    @blissmo: Indeed I have been tainted by the interwebs and now I feel I must rescue Nagato from it’s clutches D:!

    Did I tell you about the time she sent me a marker with a packet of seaweed and instructions on how to wrap said marker in said seaweed? Twas awesome.

  • blissmo (author) said:

    @FFVIIKnight: Since you said Ga-Rei -zero- I don’t blame you

    @mellow_bunny: No, you don’t tell me anything! And Nagato is a girl? I DID NOT KNOW THAT!!

  • Yukan Blog! » Blog Archive » Oi, Hayaku! and the Halloween Season! said:

    [...] be quite honest, I first heard about OH! when I saw blissmo’s frantic post about the potential threat. At first I thought I should feel guilty that at any given time when my browser was open, I was [...]
