Trivia / JesuOtaku

• Attention Deficit Creator Disorder: He reviews anime, is making a retrospective on all the Digimon anime, dubs Anime Theme Songs, is analyzing the Trigun anime, is working on a Fan Dub of Katawa Shoujo, and—oh yeah—decided to see every wide-release movie that came out, and in 2012 started doing a show about several of them (Alongside one where he looks at every anime coming out in the winter, spring, summer and fall seasons, and does a livestream every Saturday.
• Breakup Breakout: Not quite. Rather than leaving the Brigade after joining up with Channel Awesome, he still tried to be a loyal brigadier, and his new-found popularity did in fact bring in more viewers to the Brigade's site; however, his indecisiveness coupled with his Attention Deficit Creator Disorder caused him to grow increasingly distant from the Brigade, unofficially breaking off from it about a year from its official disbandment.
• Dear Negative Reader: Released a full-length one over his Twitter sometime around mid/late-2011 in response to the frequent complaints about his aforementioned Attention Deficit Creator Disorder.
• Development Hell: Back in October 2018 Jacob announced the plans to revive the series. Nothing has come out of it since then.
• Keep Circulating the Tapes: He initially gave fans his blessing to reupload any and all of his old videos now that Blip is gone and he's called it quits, under the condition that people don't claim to be him. However, in 2017 when a YouTuber started going after Channel Awesome and its former members, JO politely requested that anyone who'd reuploaded his videos take them down, lest they threaten his current job.
• Schedule Slip: JO's "Digimon Month", a month of reviews of the first five seasons of Digimon was intended to encompass August 2010. The Digimon Adventure review finally came out on August 20th (with part 2 only half-done until about a week later). It then took until November 6th for the first part of Digimon Adventure 02 to be released, followed by parts 2 and 3 on the 23rd (and part 2 half-done until the 28th). Following 02, his weekly anime review continued for the first time since July, with the fate of rest of the Digimon reviews left uncertain until he retired from videos.
• What Could Have Been:
  • Obviously, he never finished either his Trigun or Digimon retrospectives, rendering many allusions he made to future installments moot.
  • "Top 20 Most Deliciously Evil Anime Villains":
    • His "Dis-Honorable Mentions" list early in the video lists characters such as Fuhrer King Bradley, Itachi Uchiha, Dewey Novak, Haruko Haruhara, Gin Ichimaru, Jan Valentine and Medusa Gorgon, among many others — obviously characters he considered for the list, but ultimately didn't make the cut.
    • The comments for the now long deleted original upload had JO mention a few other villains he considered. Notably, Balalaika and Envy were both considered, but ultimately didn't make it for various reasons (Black Lagoon overall seems to have been exempt due to the fact that nearly every character was a Villain Protagonist; Envy, despite fitting the "Deliciously Evil" criteria, was ultimately concluded to be unfitting for a list mostly consisting of Big Bads, since he never quite rises above his status as a henchman — this is presumably why King Bradley didn't make the cut as well).
  • In his review of Fullmetal Alchemist (2003), he mentioned that if people really wanted him to, he'd be willing to make a video comparing it to Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood and running down the differences and pros and cons of both series. This never came to pass.
