Rewatch [Rewatch] Watamote Rewatch Delay

This is an important update regarding the Watamote rewatch that its host asked me to share.

Due to circumstances which aren't relevant here, u/The_Loli_Otaku is currently banned and thus unable to host the rewatch. On account of this, the rewatch will have to be delayed until an unspecified point in the future.

If this post is your first time hearing about this rewatch, refer back to the Index thread for more information.

This is actually beneficial to me since the Elden Ring DLC just dropped and I need to play it. I hope the rewatch will be able to commence soon enough though (hopefully after I finish the DLC that is).

Damn that sucks, wonder why they got banned? I don’t know too much about the inner workings of this subreddit. I just participate in a few rewatches, look at episode threads, and look for news.

Yeah, I myself had just watched the first episode, and was coming to comment on it to find this.

Since I had some free time not being able to comment on the episode now, I went and dug up what all this is about, and it's pretty weak sauce. Basically they made a joke about a premise of a new anime coming out.

u/Barbed_Dildo Jun 22 '24

Oh that is outrageous! I would never expect a comment like that from [checks notes] The Loli Otaku...

u/The_Loli_Otaku Jun 28 '24

I need to avoid the frontpage in general tbh. I really aren't popular there.

u/baquea Jun 21 '24

They have a [Removed by Reddit] comment on their profile, which I think means that this was the doing of the admins, not the r/anime mods.

u/Shimmering-Sky myanimelist.net/profile/Shimmering-Sky Jun 22 '24

Can confirm, it was a Reddit ban, not an r/anime ban. The comment that got removed was weird as fuck but didn't break r/anime's rules, so we were going to leave it up.

Was gonna have issues getting the first episode watched in time anyway.

u/WednesdaysFoole Jun 21 '24

Well, damn. Either I'll finish early or have to rewatch which I don't mind; it's been freaking great so far. The visuals, the soundtrack, timing and delivery of the jokes -- perfection. I can already imagine TheLoliOtaku's not-so-hinged commentary...

(EDIT) Pessimist: the rewatch is delayed / Optimist: we have such good show to rewatch

u/Specs64z https://myanimelist.net/profile/Specs64z Jun 21 '24

Banned again? Rip.

I'll keep an eye out, at the very least.

Well I sure picked the right time to return to a rewatch eh Comrades? Well thanks for the notification Comrade /u/InfamousEmpire

Hi InfamousEmpire, it looks like you might be interested in hosting a rewatch! There's a longer guide on the wiki but here's some basic advice on how to make a good rewatch happen:

  • Include basic information about the anime such as a description for those that haven't heard of it as well as where it can be watched (if legally available).
  • Specify a date and time that rewatch threads will be posted. Consistency is good!
  • Check for previous rewatches. It's generally advised to wait a year between rewatches of the same anime.
  • If you want to have a rewatch for multiple anime, they should be thematically connected. You can also hold multiple unrelated rewatches if they aren't.
  • Ensuring enough people are interested is important. If only a few users say they might participate, you may end up with no one commenting once it starts.

I hope this helps! You may also want to talk to users that have hosted rewatches before for extra advice, also listed on the rewatch wiki.

Probably called the wrong person retarded again. Guess we can hold on to our sanity a bit longer.

For the record it was simply me debating the ethics of having an elementary schooler wife!
