Video summary
The video features a creator responding to MoistCr1TiKaL's reaction to his viral content while providing a critical update on an ongoing copyright dispute involving "Remove Your Media" and its founder, Eric Green. The speaker emphasizes that despite the massive scale of the issue—citing over 109 strikes on a single channel and hundreds removed from others—the core problem remains that many channels are being terminated for content that is transformative commentary rather than simple playback. He argues that while anime reaction videos often exist in a gray area, the current situation has escalated into blatant abuse where AI-driven systems automatically issue takedowns based on keywords like "Bleach" or "Naruto," regardless of whether any actual footage from those properties is shown. This automated approach targets review channels and even videos that merely discuss anime concepts without displaying images, effectively silencing legitimate criticism and discussion.
A significant portion of the transcript addresses the specific mechanics of these false strikes, highlighting instances where creators were hit for reacting to their own videos or discussing topics like *One Punch Man* Season 3 without using a single second of anime footage. The speaker points out the absurdity of receiving copyright claims for community posts containing promotional images owned by other entities or even unrelated software named "BleachBit," suggesting that the enforcement system is so flawed it cannot distinguish between copyrighted media and innocent third-party content. He expresses deep concern that this behavior represents a coordinated harassment campaign rather than standard rights management, noting that the speed and volume of strikes make human review impossible and imply a malicious intent to destroy livelihoods within the anime community.
The narrative also touches on the personal stakes involved, with the speaker mentioning his own channel termination date being held in limbo while he appeals these decisions alongside friends like Rice and Jinger. He criticizes the silence from major figures in the anime niche who refuse to speak out against these practices, contrasting their inaction with MoistCr1TiKaL's willingness to address the issue despite not being part of the anime community himself. The speaker asserts that reaction channels are actually the best promoters for anime, driving millions of views and keeping the culture alive, yet they are being punished instead of supported. He concludes by expressing gratitude for the viral reach of his video, which has brought attention from top creators and potentially legal allies, hoping that this exposure will force a reckoning against what he describes as fraudulent and defamatory corporate actions.

About 20 hours ago, I was sitting right
here watching episode 78 of Dragon Ball.
And that's when I got a text from my
wife. Baby Charlie, you're in it. You're
in a Charlie video. It's as if Shenron
himself descended from the sky and
granted a wish of mine. At first, I
thought she meant I was inside of
Charlie. But that can't be true because
she's the only one I'm allowed to be
inside of. Now, before we get into my
response to this video because there's a
lot in here, I just want to give an
update on the entire situation. Era
Green is still a piece of [ __ ] and
remove your media are still a bunch of
frauds. Yep, that's pretty much it.
Let's get to the video. Pardon my bed
head, by the way. Knowing I was at a
moist critical video yesterday, I slept
like a baby. Huge copyright strike
situation. Well, I'm going to correct
you right there, Mr. Moist. I wouldn't
be using huge. I'd be saying humongous.
So maybe next time. Don't downplay our
situation, buddy. I'm joking, guys. I'm
joking. Okay. Okay. Okay. If you're new
here, this is my humor. I don't want
EDP's [ __ ] pics in my inbox. All right.
Schoolhouse Rock taught us that three is
a magic number and that remains true to
this day. It also happens to be how many
times I have motorboated this topic in
the last week. But it is extremely
important and it's only getting worse.
So I'm once again I've always wanted to
be part of a Moist critical video
because he always opens these videos
with these crazy things like like how do
you even think of that? Before he
creates these videos, does he write the
intro and then just goes off of that or
does he just come up with that on the
spot?
>> Spreading the legs on this like a
Thanksgiving turkey. Copyright strike
abuse on YouTube. It is spiraling out of
control and it's reaching numbers I
>> Oh my god, bro. [laughter]
109. My man got the same number of
strikes as the building in Shabuya.
>> Thought impossible. These are like
[ __ ] Bellatro numbers at
[clears throat] this point here. 109
copyright strikes on this one channel
alone. Having three strikes on your
channel leads to a termination within a
week. Like some [ __ ] out of the ring.
>> And what 109 strikes does is the YouTube
headquarters actually sends missile air
strikes to your house
>> or you're going to die in seven days.
You get three strikes, the clock starts
ticking. Having 109,
>> you don't just lose your channel, you
lose your life. You you die in the game,
you die in real life, and then you get
vanquished straight to hell. The cat
gets brought out for you.
>> Sent to the deepest pits of Tarter
>> shadow realm.
>> That is unreal. And it's happening to
>> remember what happened to Yugi's
grandpa. That's what happens to you if
you get that many strikes.
>> Wardrobe change going to
>> Wait a minute. Was that a Wait a minute.
Wardrobe change,
bro. How about background change, too?
My man sure got robbed. And his bookcase
in the back got robbed, too. What the
[ __ ] IS TV DO, BRO? YOU BETTER WATCH OUT
WITH THESE ANIME FIGURES OVER HERE. YOU
TRYING TO GET A COPYRIGHT STRIKE FROM
ERIC GREEN.
>> SO, I started covering this topic a few
days ago and I wanted to see how things
developed. So,
>> it's the numbers have only gotten
bigger. Number go way up. So,
>> a ton of channels, tons and tons of
anime focused channels, mainly anime
reaction channels are getting hundreds
of strikes, losing. I've seen one
>> mainly anime reaction channels. But I
want to make this clear, it's not just
reaction channels, it's also review
channels. people just talking about the
anime. Some of them not even using
pictures from the anime, but simply
because they talk about the anime and
the animes in the title of their [ __ ]
video. It was struck.
>> Channel lose like 600 videos being
struck, taken down.
>> By the way, 600 plus videos were removed
from Rice and Jinger's channel. They
still have a bunch of strikes and
they're not able to post on their
channel. As you see right here, their
last upload was 7 days ago where they
have to talk about their channel being
deleted. I think they just posted a
little update. Just an update. Sushi
squad still fighting all the strikes.
Currently still 53 strikes awaiting
review after we have submitted our
appeals. Most have wishes have been
rejected. Their appeals are being
rejected. This is still an ongoing
situation. I want to make this clear.
Just because you see all of these
channels popping up again doesn't mean
we're safe. They're still dealing with
the aftermath. That is [ __ ] So now
I need to try and get a hold of a real
person to push these through. You're
more likely to find a real person in the
abyss. You're more likely to find a real
person at the depths of the ocean. Our
channel termination now says September
9th, but is currently on hold. Their
life is on the line right now. I want
y'all to go show them support. They need
it right now. And they're good [ __ ]
people. Great [ __ ] people. And I'm
blessed to know them.
>> There's a lot going on. And some of it
is not eyebrow raising at all. Like full
anime episodes that are getting reacted
to. [snorts]
>> Come on, don't even pretend [laughter]
to be shocked. Like every listen, I am
not here to talk about the morality or
the legality of anime reactions. All
you'll hear me say about this is this
fair use transformative content. There's
a gray area within all of it. If you're
sitting there with the episode playing,
not adding any commentary, nothing, then
yeah, I agree with this. But if you're
bringing something else that transforms
the original content where people come
to your videos for you, not for the
content you're watching, you don't know
how many comments I get where people are
like, "Nick, I don't even care about
what you're watching. We just want to
watch you." That is the response you
want to get from your audience. You
don't want to get a response like, "Stop
pausing. Shut the [ __ ] up. I'm trying to
watch the show." I got those people out
of my audience when I first started. So
if you're one of those people that
listen to that crowd and you perform
nothing transformative, then yeah,
whatever happens to your content
happens. Everyone always knew that that
was not strictly speaking allowed.
>> Yeah.
>> But there is a completely separate thing
that is happening in tandem with this
that is blatant copyright abuse. But
yeah, one of the big things here is that
there are a lot of channels that are
having hundreds of videos taken down.
Mhm.
>> A lot of them being anime reactions. Oh,
yeah.
>> Now, brace yourself for the cold water.
It's not going to be a popular thing to
say, but it is true. So,
>> ju just say it. I know what he's going
to say. He's going to say it's not fair
use or whatever or something along the
lines of that. Maybe not that, but he's
going to say something along the lines
of, "What do you think is going to
happen? Look what you're watching.
>> Here comes the airplane with the
vegetables." It's not overly surprising.
Anime reaction content on YouTube and
Twitch by extension has always existed
in a gray area where it's allowed to
persist only because the rights holders
turn a blind eye to it or just don't
know about it.
>> It's not that they don't know about it.
It's it's that it costs too much to take
down. For them to take down anime
reactions, there's way too many
channels. And it's not even just anime
reactions. It's also the movie reaction
channels. It's also to TV show reaction
channels. It's also the gaming reaction
channels. Most YouTubers are reaction
channels. I'd even like to say Penguin
Zero Charlie is a reaction channel. He
reacts to news. He reacts to updates to
trailers. But mostly, I'd say Moist
Critical is like a commentary channel.
But still, at the end of the day, we're
all reacting to something. But we're
talking about anime channels
specifically. We're watching anime that
you need to watch through a subscription
service. And most of the time, that
subscription service is Crunchyroll,
which was formerly a website that
provided pirated anime. So, it really
makes you think about all of this. Who's
right? Who's wrong? But at the end of
the day, what I say is this. Who cares?
As long as your content is
transformative. Every time you get a
copyright claim, appeal it, see what
happens. It's not a brand new
phenomenon. There are some things about
it that are new and are blatant abuse of
the copyright systems on YouTube, which
are the ones I'm really going to yap
about. But the overall talk around like
anime reactions are fair use
>> in some cases. There are examples of
channels that do it properly, but in
most cases, these are like 25 minute
videos where 15 minutes of the anime
episode is just playing uninterrupted.
And even if it is interrupted,
>> well, that's the thing. On my YouTube
channel specifically, I'll take a
22-minute anime episode and the reaction
will be like 8 minutes long. It's more
like highlights. I show like a highlight
reel of my reactions to the episode.
Nobody is coming to my content to watch
the anime itself. They're coming for my
reaction. Just go back to the One Punch
Man drama. Nobody was watching One Punch
Man season 3. They wanted to watch my
review. They wanted to see me ripping it
apart, pulling my pants down, spreading
my cheeks, and [ __ ] all over it like
a whoa during a hype or aura moment.
>> That's a stretch to call it, you know,
fair use eligible now. And it's not like
this is a bombshell revelation. and the
channels themselves know it. Which is
why in a lot of these anime reactions,
you'll find the footage playing in like
a small box that they [ __ ] up a little
bit, whether through filters or through
changing the opacity or tilting it or
even like putting it upside down or just
changing the orientation. They do these
things on purpose to try and skirt the
copyright tools so that way it doesn't
get flagged and detected. So like they
>> and this isn't rocket science. Everybody
knows this. This isn't some biblical
artifact you find in the tombs of Egypt.
All right? We all know this. And I'm not
saying that in response of him, but I'm
saying this in response to anybody
watching this right now. This is a
fossil you dig up underneath the earth.
We all know what we're doing. There's a
gray area inside of it.
>> No. As well, it it's hard to make a
strong argument that that's fair use.
Like, anyone remember on Twitch a couple
years ago, the big trend was for these
huge streamers just watching entire
seasons of anime without permission.
People were rightfully chirping up
talking.
>> Well, okay. So, I have a little argument
about this, right? The people that are
given permission are shills most of the
time. Every single post of theirs
related to an anime is a sponsored post.
Any game that they play is usually
sponsored. If you ask me, I think the
wrong people are being paid to watch
these anime on stream. And guess what?
Those people that are paid to watch
anime, they're not even talking about
this situation right now. But that's why
I really appreciate Moist Critical
talking about this because you have
people that represent the anime
community that still will not make a
single comment about the situation when
this is the same community that gave
them a purpose
>> about how that's just blatant copyright
infringement and it's like really silly
and also on YouTube. Do you remember
like Suzil? Oh yeah, [ __ ] Susie Lou by
the way. After everything she has been
through, I don't think she has made a
comment about this at all. It's selfish
[ __ ] like this that I hate to see in a
community that she's a part of.
>> Used to be public enemy number one on
YouTube when she like did some false
flagging, but she is also just an anime
reaction YouTube channel that
>> Suzil is the Eric Green of anime
reactions.
>> Everyone was pointing the finger at like
how does she get away with it? This
isn't shocking new information. Like
people I think do at their core
understand that when you're just going
to be plastering most of an anime
episode in a YouTube video, you are
playing with fire. Okay, so I'm sure
he's going to talk about this more as
the video goes on, but let me just say
it right now. If that was the case,
right, let's say the only videos that
were being taken down were anime
episodes, right? Then I would somewhat
understand. I would still appeal it. the
video would still be reinstated, but I
would at least understand and I wouldn't
really make a big deal about it like I
am. And I'm sure he's going to get into
it, which is what this video is about.
It's about everything else. Most of the
videos that were taken down, and I can
speak for myself and call, which I think
he's about to show, a lot of the videos
that were taken down weren't even anime
episode reactions. Sometimes it was
videos where I'm just talking to the
camera or a picture of an anime. So, I
don't think it should be surprising to
see a lot of channels that have tons and
tons of that content having it taken
down. What is surprising is the speed at
which it's happened where it's very
clearly an AI tool that's doing so.
There's not a single [ __ ] human being
on this planet. I don't care how much of
like a soulless loser you are. There's
not enough hours in the day to be filing
this many.
>> Especially when you're in your 70s,
which Eric Green is. My dad is nearing
70 right now. You think he's watching
[ __ ] Naruto videos on his phone? take
down requests and all of these strikes.
And they also flew too close to the sun
because they're not just taking down
things like full anime reactions or
anything like that. They are also taking
down videos that are just talking about
anime without showing a single image or
video from the anime they're talking
about. So, this channel here in
particular is having hundreds of their
videos taken down. I think they've lost
like 600 videos that have been struck.
And now they also had a community post.
Me and Coco were talking about this. I
remember telling him, "Bro, I think this
guy has it out for you, man." Like every
day it was like a 100 strikes. It was
crazy. Imagine waking up in the morning
and you see over 600 videos of yours
removed. Hundreds of strikes, email
saying your channel's about to be
deleted. Honestly, bro, I'm surprised
I'm still here right now.
>> Of theirs get struck as well for
copyright infringement because they had
an image of an anime in their post. Oh,
but they own the rights to the image. If
any of you have that argument, go on the
Clorox website and then buy a box of
straws. That's all I'll say. So, they're
they're claiming the image and then
striking them for the usage there, which
I didn't even know was something on the
table. I have never heard of that in my
entire 20 years on this platform. That
is [ __ ] wild. I'm somewhat concerned
even just showing that community post
here because of that image. I wonder if
they will try and hit this.
>> YOU'RE DONE, BRO. YOU HAVE ANIME FIGURES
in the back. Like literally, I see
Saitama. Like I said before, you're
done. You're [ __ ] done. Your
channel's gone.
>> This video because I am covering it and
that image is there.
>> Well, let me answer that with a no. It's
not going to happen to you. And not
because of your channel size and who you
are, but the reason why that post was
taken down if you bring it back. It's
because it says Oshi no co in the title.
And what this system does, this AI
system does that Eric Green and Remove
Your Media uses is it's keyword related.
So it searches through channels for any
keywords related to their copyright
takedowns. Oshino Co, Bleach, Naruto,
Hunter Hunter, and it removes everything
related to those words. So the AI system
can't distinguish between this and an
anime reaction because it believes it's
an anime reaction. somehat concerned
even just showing that community post
him covering it and that image is there.
That would be pretty outrageous if you
ask me. That is a promotional image from
what I can tell looking it up on Google
images. I even find
>> articles from outlets that have had that
same image in them.
>> So why,
>> by the way, I just want to say this
reaction channels are the best form of
promotion for an anime because these
anime companies have no idea how to
promote their anime.
>> They not been copyright struck. If you
think that's the extent of it and it
can't go lower, you're wrong. Rules for
me, not this number here.
>> So, I made a video like a year ago where
I was yapping about my disappointment
with One Punch Man season 3's animation.
>> I was disappointed, too, buddy.
>> The same YouTube channel actually made a
reaction to my video where I was talking
about it. There is not even a split
second of footage from the One Punch Man
anime in my video. And by extension, his
reaction to my video also has no
footage. Yet, he still got a lot strike
for it. Thus, it is now like the
impression like the what it leads you to
believe is that I copyright struck him.
>> And before we get to the clip, I just
want to say this. Call was also hit with
a strike for reacting to a video of mine
where I'm in a hotel bathroom, a Disney
hotel bathroom talking to the camera
about One Punch Man. So, not only did
Moyes Critical strike him down, I did as
well. Me and Moyes Critical are actually
in with Viz Media. We're actually both
co-owners of Remove Your Media LLC. I am
Eric Green. And look what we have here.
I can't believe
John Wick, he would sell out like this.
He's now corroborating with Viz Media.
That's right. He sold up to Viz Media to
take down a video.
>> You believe that people are in Kaw's
comments even on Twitter saying, "MY
CRITICAL DID IT DO THAT, YOU PIECE OF
[ __ ] YOU KNOW IT WASN'T HIM." When did
we lose the sense of sarcasm in this
world? I That's all I'll say about that,
man. Some people are just so [ __ ]
stupid.
>> But One Punch Man,
>> you can't read the sarcasm.
>> Anime footage. Now, if you can't sense
the sarcasm, please, I need you to
understand something. There's a lot of
people in here that's just kind of mad
that I you think I actually think that
he did it.
>> Of course not.
>> Now, while he can see that I wasn't the
one that did that, it does still lead
you to believe like it's not far-fetched
to think that it was me behind it
because it's my video talking about One
Punch Man. There's no footage or
anything. Yet, he's getting a strike for
real.
>> Well, Charlie, uh, I'll correct you
there, buddy. You deserve the strike.
You know why? because you have a One
Punch Man figure in your background that
is owned by Viz Media and Eric Green, by
the way. So, because of that, I agree. I
think you're next, buddy. I might send
in a report myself acting to me. So,
[snorts] it does feel like, hey, maybe
it was Charlie that did that. That's
[ __ ] crazy. So, now they can just
strike something that's entirely
unrelated to the rights that they have.
You can't just strike someone because
they talk about your show. No,
>> like that's never how that's worked.
>> And I see some people actually against
that statement. If you talk about a
show, you're still talking about an IP
and if the IP holder wants to strike you
down, they have the right to. No, they
don't. That's not how this world works,
buddy. Anime reaction channels, anime
review channels, we promote these
products better than anybody else does.
Millions and millions, hundreds of
millions of views for anime content.
This even goes to Tik Tok or Instagram
reels or YouTube shorts where people are
creating AMVs. We're doing all of this
to promote the anime. Our videos get
more views than the trailers for the
anime.
>> They don't have the rights.
>> What the [ __ ] IS GOING ON, BRO? LIKE,
BRO, THIS IS scaring me.
>> Like, that's never how that's worked.
They don't have the rights to my video I
made yapping about One Punch Man. They
have the rights. That is why if this
ever does go to court, they lost. All I
got to do is show them this [ __ ]
video. They lost
>> to One Punch Man. Okay, [snorts] I can
talk about it. It's still my video. I'm
allowed to talk about it. They can't be
copyright striking on my behalf. They
don't have the right to do so. And
there's a lot of instances of this
happening where channels that are
showing no anime footage and are just
talking about an anime or reacting to
someone talk about an anime with no
anime footage are also receiving
strikes. This is where the blatant abuse
of the copyright system comes into play.
>> And that's why, and I'm glad he's
talking about all of this because this
is the core of the issue. That is why I
don't care about the whole argument
about the morality and legality of anime
reactions. You can't watch episodes as a
gray area and all of that because it's
not about that anymore. It's about
everything else. And when you have an AI
system that is keyword related and
attacking any video, even websites that
just use the name bleach Clorox, it
makes this whole entire copyright
strike, my bad, false copyright strike
takedown situation crazier. It's really
two separate things. One, tons of
channels are receiving hundreds of
copyright strikes because of like the
anime reactions and tons of channels are
also receiving copyright strikes because
of even just talking about anime or in
that case showing an image of an anime
in a community post, which I understand
they have the rights to that image, but
it is a promo piece that other outlets
are also utilizing.
>> Yeah. Yeah. So, why aren't you striking
down those other outlets? It goes back
to my argument of why am I getting a
strike for reacting to another creator's
video of the Naruto filler arc
summarized. So if you see this video
right here, I reacted to this. I'm
pretty sure Head Cannon Studios doesn't
have the rights to Naruto. So why is
this channel's video allowed but not
mine? And I'm not saying that so this
video gets taken down.
>> Why are you hardtargeting a YouTube
community post for the strike? [snorts]
Feels like it's AI getting a little hog
wild there. This video right here is
literally a reaction of me reacting to
Moist Critical. What's he talking about?
How bad One Punch Man season 3 was. And
god damn, we're reaching a one-year
terrible zero anime footage. Again, I'm
not here to debate the nature of fair
use and reaction content. I'm trying to
show you how ridiculous this current
scam being done by Remove Your Media is.
>> That's why every single person should be
against this situation. I don't care
about your understanding or your defense
for fair use, transformative content, or
whatever. I don't care about that
argument. If you see this happen, you
should be against it because this is the
core of the issue. When you can strike
videos that you don't own just because
why? Well, if you've been following the
drama, it's not even drama at this
point. It's because the keywords, anime
keywords are in it,
>> right? recognizing examples of Naruto
keywords being flagged and then they're
>> like look at these videos right here.
This is a video by another creator. This
is a video by another creator and those
original creators are not getting struck
down. It's an AI targeted attack against
reaction channels and review channels
which isn't fair if you ask me. And this
is why YouTube should be on the creator
side instead of being a bunch of [ __ ]
and giving us AI responses themselves.
Bad faith, just actions being taken with
AI automation taking down any and every
video. Do you know where I'm at right
now?
>> Just showing that there is indeed no
anime footage in there. Thus, they have
no grounds to be striking
>> on my behalf. He reacted to a video of
me
>> 100%
>> whining about One Punch Man season 3.
>> I mean, I made a video whining about One
Punch Man season 3, too, and Kaw was
struck down for that video as well. So,
me and you are on the same boat,
Charlie. Bro, I'm so glad this video has
3.2 million views. That's [ __ ] crazy,
man. Look at this comment, by the way,
by this handsome young fellow. We will
take down Eric Green. Yeah, we will.
>> Why the [ __ ] is Viz Media, remove your
media? Eric Green taking action again.
>> It's so crazy to hear Charlie say these
words. Eric Green, remove your media.
Him simply saying these words. YouTube's
going to take this really [ __ ]
seriously now. You hear that, Eric
Green? You're [ __ ] buddy. against him
and striking him for that video. That
doesn't make sense. Now, that name I
just mentioned, Eric Green, has become
an infamous one already because all of
these these thousands of strikes are all
tying back to remove your media. And
years ago, this happened with Eric
Green. It didn't really stir up that
much drama. No big creators talked about
this. But the difference now is I'm a
part of this. Because of my connections,
because of how many subscribers and
viewers that I have, I was able to
signal boost this to all of the top
creators. I made a tweet that's now
deleted because it's irrelevant now
asking people with a connection to Moist
Critical if they could put me in contact
with him. They put me in contact with
him and he said he'll look into the
situation. He will definitely make a
video about this.
>> Specifically, Eric Green is the one
that's always cited in the actual
takedown information there. So, Eric
Green, a lot of people had their eyes
on. And a YouTuber named Nicholas Light
just made a video talking about
Mom, I MADE IT. [laughter]
IT'S SO [ __ ] cool to hear my name
come out of those lips of his. I'm not
going to lie. I'm rock solid right now.
I'm not I'm not going to lie
>> about how he's now getting sued. He
apparently received a cease and desist
for his coverage of all of this. He's
one of the channels affected that's
about to lose one of their channels from
the content being struck so much. Nick
[ __ ] bro. This is crazy. [laughter] I'M
I'M ON A [ __ ] VOICE CRITICAL VIDEO,
BRO. WHAT IS LIFE? PEOPLE that bullied
me in high school or elementary school,
they probably watch Voice Critical and
they're seeing me right now for the
first time in how long? Well, if you're
seeing this, go [ __ ] yourselves. I hate
every single one of you. I always have.
I'm on top now, [ __ ] Where are
you? And by the way, I just want to say
this again. It's crazy to me that one of
the biggest channels in the world, Moist
Critical, is talking about this. He's
not even in the anime niche, but there's
still people on top of the anime niche
that still refuse to talk about this.
They're probably sitting on their
master's lap right now as we speak.
Nicholas Lights, Remove Your Media LLC,
is writing to formerly demand that you
immediately cease making false public
statements about our company, our
enforcement practices, and Eric Green
shot ruining my livelihood, going after
my channels, false copyright strike, and
>> look at that. Look at that [ __ ] right
there. my Boruto poll asking people
should I watch every episode or skip the
manga cannon. I guess the creator of
Boruto was so pissed that I asked that
they just struck it down. But what do
you know? It wasn't them. It was Eric
Green the [ __ ] fraud instead of me
seizing my statements. How about you
cease your company? Remove your media.
You have engaged in a deliberate pattern
of harassment and defamation directed at
Evergreen and Remove Your Media LLC
through private harassing emails,
repeated phone calls, a counter
notification to YouTube, and public
video statements on YouTube. Your
conduct is harassment, defamation, and
bad faith. It must stop immediately.
>> So, he's allegedly staring down the pipe
of a cease and desist here. They're
saying that he's publishing defamatory
statements about their company and Eric
Green in particular and her
>> Yeah, I'm not saying anything defamatory
because everything I'm saying is true.
It's correct. And if it wasn't, Moist
Critical wouldn't be putting his
reputation on the line to make a video
about it. He's done his research. We've
all done our research. It takes a two-c
[ __ ] Google search. And you don't
need to do a Google search. You could do
exactly what Eric Green is doing AND USE
A [ __ ] AI SYSTEM, AN AI SEARCH. YOU
COULD use chat GBT, Grock, Gemini. You
could use the [ __ ] Game Boy Color at
this point to look it up just to know
that he's a fraud. What he's doing is
incorrect. It's fraud.
>> Harassing them. That kind of thing. From
what I can tell, he's been reporting on
what he's been experiencing as well as
like many others in the anime community.
>> And yeah, he is extremely harsh to the
company and the individual.
>> Of course, I'm Wait, wait, wait. Let him
continue.
>> But I mean, why wouldn't he be? Thank
God. Okay. I was about to say, Charlie,
my life was on the line. I have a family
to take care of. I'm sorry if I'm harsh,
but uh yeah, my life is on the [ __ ]
line, as well as a lot of my friends.
And by friends, I mean just a few of
them, because most of the people that
I'm speaking out for, they let their
communities actively talk [ __ ] about me
on a daily basis. So, [ __ ] them. But I'm
still speaking out for them. This is our
livelihood. Whether you agree with it or
not, we should not be struck down for
commentary videos. What Charlie's doing
right now, I was struck down for.
>> They're taking down these channels. Like
that's entire livelihoods being
>> Do you blame me?
>> So a cease and desist here. Obviously
that kind of [ __ ] never goes over well.
And in a case like this, it goes over
even worse considering it's following on
the back of them taking down these
[ __ ] channels. Like Jiminy Christmas,
we can take down all your [ __ ] but
don't you dare be mean to us about it.
>> Yeah. Like what the [ __ ] We could put
you on food stamps, but the second you
criticize us, we'll make sure you don't
give a chance at life again because
we're going to sue your ass. Well, let
me say this on the wide camera this
time. Eric Green, remove your media. You
could eat my [ __ ] ass after I eat a
giant burrito bowl from Chipotle.
>> It's so It's It's pretty lame.
>> Was that harsh enough? in some of the
content that's been taken down like the
anime reactions where it just blatantly
shows most of an anime episode
uninterrupted. Yeah, like that. This
isn't new. Like,
>> but this is the thing. The reactions on
YouTube are not fully uncut. You're
supposed to cut them, right? So, I
barely show even 30% of the anime on my
YouTube channel. If they were full uncut
reactions on YouTube, I would completely
understand. But we're transforming the
content enough so the original content
so nobody's coming to our videos for the
original content. They're coming for us.
So that argument is invalid cuz we're
strictly talking about YouTube right
now. All the YouTube strikes are what I
just said. Cut down anime reactions,
commentary videos, review videos where
they're not even showing pictures of the
anime. These waves come and go and
always have since the inception of
YouTube where there are sometimes big
sweeping takedowns of, you know, just
these full anime episodes that were
posted or reacted to.
>> In this case, this is on the larger
scale of things I've seen with hundreds
and thousands of strikes that are being
issued to tons of channels and it
encompasses more than just those
instances. There are a multitude of
cases where they are targeting things
that don't show any image or video of
their property that they have the right.
>> I mean, look what he showed previously.
A Boruto poll asking people should I
watch filler or not? That was struck
down. Are you going to strike me down
for having anime tattoos? Are you going
to strike me down when I say in my outro
because Japanese? Are you going to
strike down Asian people for sharing the
same race as the anime characters? Are
you going to strike down the Japanese
menu when it says Naruto roll?
>> It's totally out of their out of their
realm to be taking down conversations
around their properties. Freedom of
speech. And the theory is that they're
targeting keywords. The biggest one
right now being bleach, it seems. Or
anything that has bleach in it is
immediately on the chopping board, which
is of course
>> not at all within their right to do. You
can't silence conversation around your
property where no one's even allowed to
usher or utter the name.
>> If Eric Green could prove that all of
these takedowns are valid, I will do a
stream where I drink a full bottle of
bleach.
>> [ __ ] Voldemort. Like, this is
ridiculous. So, there is blatant
copyright abuse here. I don't know if
this is a real cease and desist that
Nicholas Light was sent.
>> Is it real? Is it fake? Nobody knows.
But I could tell you firsthand speaking
with lawyers, top lawyers, it reads like
[ __ ] within a second. So I'm going
to say right now, I don't think it's
real. I can't say 100% it's not real,
but what I could 100% say is that Eric
Green, remove your media, they're not
going after us because they have
everything and everybody against them.
>> I'm inclined to believe that it is. I I
imagine it probably is. I would I would
assume that Nicholas did his due
diligence to ensure that this was coming
from a legit, some kind of hoax. I will
say that it's very fast for them to be
sending a cease and desist. It's how
much that takes time. Five or six days
roughly. I think it's been closer to
like seven or eight days.
>> No, the thing is he sent me a cease and
desist because I appealed his copyright.
My bad. His false copyright strike. He
sent it the day later. It's almost as if
he sent the same one to me that he sends
everybody else. Oh, wait. Yeah, that's
exactly what [ __ ] happened. All of
the creators I've talked to that got the
same email got the same email, the same
words. Maybe some words are switched
around a little bit, a little bit more
personalized, but at the end of the day,
it's the same [ __ ] wording.
>> So, it's it does still feel a little
fast to be officially issuing a cease
and desist, but maybe there maybe they
are just really expediting the process.
But yeah,
>> no.
>> So, he is apparently now facing the
cease and desist. And like I said, it
appears that all of this stems from AI
automation here from Remove Your Media
just going,
>> let me just say this before he
continues. If this does go to court,
y'all don't understand who I have on my
side. Creators that you wouldn't even
believe that reached out to me that said
they will help. Money, resources,
lawyers, whatever I need, they will
help. So, part of me really wishes this
does move forward because if he [ __ ]
around, he's going to find out real
soon. Anime reactions, anime channels in
general, we're in good hands. You're
welcome. going ballistic and targeting
keywords because any human being that
was actually going through and taking
down like anime reactions probably
wouldn't have been confused about taking
down anime conversations cuz there like
I said there are a lot of just actual
conversations don't show any footage or
images of their property.
>> It's related to the word bleach. I want
you to take a look at this right now.
THE NAME [laughter] IS
>> Bleach disc space cleaner privacy
manager and computer system optimizer.
The Bleach Bit source code is licensed
under the GNU General Public License
version 3. It's a space cleaner. So,
we're on the Bleach Bit website now to
remove your media LLC and Biz Media LLC.
This is all real copyrighted. I'll prove
it if I have to. Filed against Bleach
Bit is incorrect. Bleach Bit is a
software application, not anime or manga
content. Unless your copyrighted
characters have learned to clean
temporary files and wipe private data.
Wait a minute. Don't you know about
Ichigo's new bongai? the disc cleaner.
He whips out a zanpac toe and there's
Clorox all over it. This
>> I'm so glad he showcased my humor on the
grandest stage of them all. The
Wrestlemania of YouTube channels appears
to have been issued an error.
>> That's beautiful. A totally unrelated
service that just has the name Bleach in
it. Allegedly targeted by Remove Your
Media and they made a public statement
addressing that. Now, I went to
Bleachbit. I can't find that post. I
>> I got you, Charlie. So, if you see right
there, that is the link you use. So, I
know what a lot of people use. They use
bleachbit.org or.com or whatever. You
have to type it in like this.
Bleachbit.org/anime.
And this page will pop up. The same
exact page. Like, I'm on it right now.
This isn't a fake page. Like, I'm on it
right now. It's still there. I don't
know if it will still be It should still
be there by the time this video comes
out. But, uh, yeah, that's how you
search up that name.
>> I don't know if they've retracted it
since like posted this video or if
remove your media. You know, I wouldn't
be surprised.
>> At their feet, like, oh, goodness
gracious.
>> I wouldn't be surprised. Please bring it
back. And I I like I don't know. I can't
find it.
>> I mean, now that Labor Day is over, you
know, Eric Green got that AI system
rebooted.
>> So, I guess there's a chance that it
could be fraudulent, like it was fake.
I don't think so because in the video he
is interacting with the website and
everything seems to be like in its right
place. So, like I don't think that it's
fake, but I guess it's entirely
possible. So, right now it is allegedly.
>> I didn't expect them to know that. Like,
it's hard to find. This channel right
here actually sent me that information.
Shout out to this channel. They're
[ __ ] great.
>> It is still an ongoing thing. Like,
every day there's hundreds of new
strikes that are being issued across the
platform from Remove Your Media.
>> I'm not even sure if it will continue.
will tell today because the holidays are
over and everything, but I'm sure this
hasn't stopped. I'm sure this isn't the
end of it, which is why we got to keep
talking about this [ __ ] and not stand in
line like I see a lot of channels doing,
not even talking about this [ __ ] when it
directly affects them as well. Stop
being enslaved by these corporations.
Speak out for yourself.
>> [ __ ] wild. Anyway, that's really
about it. See you. I just want to thank
Charlie for putting this on, like I said
before, the grandest stage of them all
when it comes to YouTube videos. This
will probably help us tremendously. And
for that, I am eternally grateful for
Charlie, his community, for boosting it
to these numbers. [ __ ] 3.2. Thanks to
Charlie, Moist Critical Penguins,
whatever the [ __ ] you want to call them.
This will give us the justice that we so
rightfully deserve.
