Six months later, the whole world has known about pangolin when it was revealed to be [[UsefulNotes/COVID19Pandemic one of the host animals of the COVID-19]].

* NightmareRetardant: The Ghosts episode ends on a decent montage which supposes that the video may be [[VengefulGhost haunted by Links' old videos]]... but the [[http://www.fanaticgame.com Fanatic Game]] advertising at the end destroys the mood.

* InternetBackdraft: The vegan episode. Just... the vegan episode. It got an astounding amount of negative feedback, was accused of using StrawmanPolitical arguments, co-hosted by very controversial vegan activist Jihem Doe (often accused of ChewbaccaDefense tactics, being a {{Hypocrite}} and a real-life StrawVegetarian). When he did an aftermath video on his video, it was better received, but a lot of damage was still done.

Some are amused by the jab at people who keep requesting said subject and enjoy finding out which subversion Links came up with each year, while others either think that the joke [[DeadHorseTrope quickly got tired]] or just want him to finally make a real Manga episode.
** In the episode on Superhero Movie Tropes, Links makes a few statements about UsefulNotes/{{feminism}}. You can imagine what 90% of the comments were arguing about. [[Administrivia/RuleOfCautiousEditingJudgment And that's all we'll say about that]].
** The episode on Veganism was the source of much debate and attacks to the point that, in addition to the traditionnal episode, quizz and commentary, an increasingly exhausted and dejected Links posted one video on the reactions to the quizz, 3 videos about the answers from his fans and a second commentary.
