Show Suggestion Update
🕑 Added 2018-04-04 06:13:28 +0000 UTC Having considered my liveblogging schedule, I'd like to modify this setup. I'd like you to suggest two types of shows.20-minute shows like Madoka are long, difficult liveblogs. They're not something I can keep up with regularity at the moment. What I'd like is for you all to suggest a ten-minute-format show for me to do alongside Madoka (it can have longer episodes once in a while but should be as a standard ten minute episodes like Steven Universe), and once we've chosen that, I'll be doing both that and Madoka as I see fit. Then, while I liveblog those, you'll suggest and vote on both of their follow-ups--a 20-minute format show for once I finish Madoka, and a 10-minute-format show for once I finish whatever you guys help me pick now.
The current set of suggestions are:
Star vs the Forces of Evil
Miraculous Ladybug
RWBY
Baccano
Mob Psycho 100
Wander Over Yonder
Sgt Frog
Voltron: Legendary Defender
One Punch Man
Please help me sort these into 10- and 20-minute series, and suggest more for each category.

I highly suggest OK KO! I haven't watched all of it yet, just a few scattered episodes, but I've super enjoyed what I've seen of it. It's an 11-minute show, so yeah. c:

Wander over Yonder is ten minutes the vast majority of the time and I enjoy the heck out of it. Phineas and Ferb is also ten minutes most of the time and I love it a lot too, but I'm not sure how it'd go for a liveblog. SVTFOE is ten minutes, but I'm not a fan. RWBY is really good but the episode lengths make no sense, there are a couple of twelve minute ones, I think, but most are all over the place.

Tons of opportunities for alt dialogue skits, though :P

MHA is an interesting possibility, because I have a LOT to say about it...but I read the manga religiously, so I know 95% of what's happening ahead of time. My liveblog wouldn't be blind reactions.

Or, heck, do teen titans.

You should consider doing MHA as an analysis thing even though you know the story.

I'm not sure how I feel about that, to be honest. I'm not sure that making "half an episode", even if it's the same amount of liveblogging as another kind of episode, is ethical. I've already messed up a few things in this Patreon's history and I want to keep myself on the straight and narrow.

As in full 30 or 22 plus ad slots?
Sara Larner
Have you considered splitting 20 minute episodes, and starting out with the intention of doing them 10 minutes at a time?

Sar vs the Forces of Evil and Wander Over Yonder are generally ~10 minute episodes, though there are some two-parters. The only other cartoons I can think of with episodes around that long, an appreciable amount of episodes, and at least some focus on story are Gravity Falls and Adventure Time which you've probably already seen, and OK KO though I'm not sure how long that is. Unfortunately most anime with serious continuity have thirty minute episodes, and a lot of comedy anime doesn't seem to be neatly divided into halves but instead has a lot of skits of various length.

The rest are 30 minute series.

Star vs. has 11 minute episodes (they're paired together to make 22 minute episodes but you can do liveblogs for each half separately I think; I've only seen like a season so), and there are some episodes that have one single 22 minute story rather than two 11 minute ones. RWBY has wildly varying episode lengths. Wander Over Yonder has 11 minute episodes. Sgt Frog has 11 minute episodes (one 22 minute timeslot split up into two 11 minute segments). It's also like 500 episodes long.
