This is one of the most mind-blowing stop-motion films we've seen this year. It comes from India.
Using traditional ceramics, Studio Eeksaurus invented a new style of animation. We're exploring:

🚨 YOUTUBE IS DEMONETIZING AN ENTIRE COMMUNITY OF ANIMATORS. AND NOBODY IS TALKING ABOUT IT.
This is bigger than one channel. Bigger than one appeal. An alarming number of animation creators are losing their YouTube monetization under the same "Misleading Family Content" policy.
My channel, Pivot Master, has been demonetized for almost 3 MONTHS. And I'm far from the only one.
Here are just some of the affected creators:

More than 29 creators, probably way more that I am not aware of. Countless hours of animation. Years of hard work. And livelihoods being affected.
Animation does NOT automatically mean children's content.
Many of us create content for general audiences, yet our channels are being classified under a policy that we believe does not accurately reflect our work.
And what happens when we appeal?
Automated responses. Rejections. Copy-paste explanations. And creators left fighting to prove that their own content has been misunderstood.
We're want TRANSPARENCY, ACCOUNTABILITY, AND GENUINE HUMAN REVIEWS.
@TeamYouTube@YouTube, please stop treating these as isolated cases.
LOOK AT THE BIGGER PICTURE.
We want our channels reviewed fairly. We want clear explanations. And if these demonetizations are mistakes, we want our monetization restored.
To every animator affected: PLEASE SPEAK UP.
Repost and Quote this tweet. Tag @TeamYouTube. Share your experience in the replies.
Let's make sure this issue cannot be ignored any longer.
OUR CHANNELS ARE OUR YEARS OF HARD WORK. THEY DESERVE A FAIR CHANCE.

Jamás olvidemos que Huawei estaba a nada de dominar el mercado de teléfonos y Estados Unidos saboteó la compañía para proteger a los suyos. El libre mercado es una hipocresía.

If only Islamophobia was treated with any seriousness, this guy should be nowhere any mainstream media
To all the angry Japanese op fans in my mentions:
As an Iraqi refugee who experienced the consequences of war as a child, I see myself in characters like Robin, Law, and Kuma for reasons that go beyond them being fictional characters.
You guys seem to think you’re intellectually superior to international fans because you were raised to separate fiction from reality. But stories have always been a way for people to reflect on the world around them. They allow us to understand experiences beyond our own, recognize injustices, and find meaning in things we’ve lived through ourselves.
That’s exactly what Oda does with One Piece. He takes real issues that exist in our world, exaggerates them through a fictional setting, and uses his characters and their experiences to show us how our world operates. The fact that it’s fiction doesn’t erase the messages behind it.
Robin’s persecution, Law’s childhood trauma, and Kuma’s suffering resonate with me because I come from a background where war, displacement, and the loss of safety aren’t just abstract concepts. I don’t need these characters to be real to recognize the realities reflected in their stories.
You can enjoy One Piece purely as entertainment if that’s what you want. But acting like international fans are stupid for connecting with its themes or applying those messages to the real world completely misses the point of storytelling. We don’t have to share the same experiences or upbringing to find meaning in a story, and you don’t get to decide what that meaning is for someone else.
Если бы Ода написал Наруто, то Сакура, Хината, Ино, Темари и Тентен имели бы свои арки, цели и экранное время, не став дополнением к мужчинам. Были бы показаны и раскрыты другие деревни, куча второстепенных персонажей получили бы своё раскрытие и важную роль в сюжете
Bleach: Kubo ya traia problemas mentales y físicos graves por jalar 15 años al ritmo de la Shonen Jump. Cuando se desgarró el tendón del hombro, les dijo que quería ya acabar la obra, pero que le dieran dos años; Shueisha (la dueña de la Shonen Jump) le dio solo uno, por eso salió tan mal.
Yu Yu Hakusho: Togashi ya tenía problemas de salud (sobre todo la espalda), quería terminar la historia después del arco de Chapter Black, pero la editorial lo presionó para seguir; por eso el arco de los Tres Reyes se siente raro, porque Togashi ya estaba hasta la madre y quería descansar.
Tokyo Ghoul: Ishida se aventó casi 7 años sin nada de descanso, hasta el sentido del gusto lo perdió por el estrés. Acabó la obra por agotamiento, ya no quería seguir haciéndola
Jujutsu Keisen: Gege del estrés le tuvieron que sacar el apéndice y se enfermo de algo más serio, al grado que Oda le recomendó especialistas. Decidió acabarlo rápido, por si las malditas dudas de que algo le pasara.
Black Clover: cuando a Tabata lo encerraron en un hotel para que terminara unos capítulos del manga, apenas regresando de vacaciones, decidió mandarlos a la verga. Priorizó su hija y su esposa, se cambió a una revista mensual y decidió terminarlo pues medio decente, pero se enfocó más en su familia que en seguir jalando así
Chainsaw Man: Este si no se, Fujimoto siempre ha sido polarizante y experimental, puede que él pensara que el final estaba genial, o quizás si ocurrió algo de salud
