Wanted to leave a comment here since I still occasionally get people messaging me about the channel, and I don't want there to be any ambiguity. I am extremely thankful for everyone who's enjoyed my work, but I have no plans to make more videos. I'm afraid UA-cam is a chapter of my life that's decisively behind me.
damn i just found your channel out and enjoyed your after the rain video and i find it crazy how there's so many people just like you who abandon the youtube scene and move on with their own lives. i hope you're doing fine and good luck in whatever endeavors you may face and whatever you are doing
It's very sad to hear this since I think your content is extremely underrated with good scripting and very unique video ideas and had the potential to blow up massively, but everyone has their own life circumstances and I wish you best luck for your future.
Oh man this hurts. I just found you through your Kino's Journey videos. It just sucks that almost all great anime reviewers on UA-cam have to leave it. But I respect your decision. It's just a relief that you're still out there. Hope you're doing well man.
While i really like your videos, it's more important that you do what makes you feel good. You don't have any obligation to keep making videos and if you don't enjoy making them you shouldn't do it.
I finally found someone with an appreciation of the classics I also enjoy, only to find they've already moved on to a greater, personal achievement... Well then, I appreciate what is left behind, may your regrets be ever as absent as new content for your ongoing success in life. 🥂
I know it's been awhile, and I'm not even sure you care about the legacy you left behind but I'm very thankful. LOTGH was ONLY and I mean fucking ONLY sold as a show for me to watch due to your review of it. It's is now my second favorite anime of all time and I'm grateful to have watched it. You didn't get the amount if attention you deserved and I'm sure real life is always an obstacle, but just know Grex will be remembered despite circumstances or if another video gets uploaded. Good luck and thanks.
Day 1027: Dear Diary, I have once again made my way through the entirety of Grex's catalog, as always I wish him luck on whatever life has thrown his way in his absence. I will once again continue to wait for his fabled return, this time with renewed enthusiasm, after seeing the return of Demo I'm once again hopeful he will return. Until next time.
I'm one of those newcomers who was watching/looking forward to your LOGH comparison vids. Life only happens once, don't feel guilty about taking a hiatus. Thank you for telling us instead of just disappearing.
For the last 2 hours, I came across this channel, enjoyed some videos, subbed and pushed bell notification, came to truly love the channel, next I felt sorrow at the thought of lost content, then I came full circle to understand the decision and now I’m chilling and satisfied
It sucks to hear, but thank you for making a video rather than just vanishing. I've been in the same boat, and sometimes you just got to do stuff like this. If you never come back, then thank you for the videos. If you do come back, then we'll be here ready. Best of luck.
Another great aniyoutuber bites the dust, well its a lot of work and you don't owe us anything, but the content you have produced has been well made and enjoyable so thank you for that and good luck in all your future endeavours.
Cmon bro i keep coming back to your videos searching for reviews for the anime I watched and I just keep seeing your channel since you literally have the best reviews like details no one really sees and just the way you talk. I just wish maybe i can find you randomnly in a youtube comment section.
If you do come back I'll be here when you do. I've been following you for a while now and your reviews are some of the best I've ever seen. I hope you're doing good and cant wait to see what your choice will be
Gotta do what ya gotta do man, only just found your galactic hero's videos and i loved them. Do your best to find your way to where and who you want to be. Best wishes.
Dude if you come back I wouldn't mind I don't know how long it takes you doing I get it I'll still watch your videos and spread the word with my friends and colleagues from work
I had just found you through your LOTGH comparisons and after watching a few reviews of yours I was waiting for more. Take all the time you need though. I'll just go rewatch the 3 you do have on repeat until then. I hope to see you again someday!
Good luck with what the future brings man, and seriously, try to let go of caring about some people on the internet who will be disappointed by the full stop on some series if you can, everyone should always prioritize themselves in situations like this. It can weigh down on some, but it's for the better for sure. Take care of yourself and see you around!
Good luck with your future plans. Got to know your channel through your LotGH comparisons, the first of which appeared just after I'd started work on a comparison myself... If I have time I'll write comparisons for ep 5 onwards on the r/logh subreddit for any people who were interested in it.
It is truly unfortunate to see you go, but its far more important that you go do what you want to do in your life. For what its worth, Thank You for all the hard work you've done.
What ever happens next, just wanna let you know that you inspired me on so many levels and I hope you figure out everything that needs figuring. Gonna follow your twitter feed like crazy now.
Dude, I just watched your Legend of the Galactic Heroes videos. Now I see this. Damn why is the world such a cruel place where such great creators have doubt in their work. Lad I don´t know you and you don´t know me but I wish you the best of luck with your decisions. For making them is the only freedom we realy have.
Thank you for sharing your thoughts with all of us. Please do take your time and don't feel too obliged in pushing for consistent contents if it really wears you out. One thing that I enjoy from your videos here and your posts in Anitay is that your works always feels genuine in sharing your views and opinions rather than merely fulfilling demands from followers or bandwagoning on popular topics. All the best in whatever you're going for and take care.
I just subscribed just a few seconds ago before noticing this upload. Take your time! Forcing yourself to upload with a schedule will just be a strain on yourself
What a way to close an already overemotional day... Well, good luck in what ever you do. I've recently found out about this channel so I guess i'll keep enjoying your videos even that way.
Dude, you're burnt out. Do things you want, and if you decide to make more videos later down the road, hey, you'll make a lot people happy. But we can only enjoy if you enjoy making these videos, so put yourself first. Wish you all the best man. And thanks for everything so far :)
I'm new on your channel, but I can definitely say after watching quite a few videos of yours that your content is really high quality. I always love watching whatever videos you make! But, if you want to take a break from UA-cam, that's perfectly fine. Your well-being is very important. You shouldn't feel forced to stay on UA-cam if you really don't want to, we'll understand. I wish you good luck on whatever you decide to do!
You take care Grex! And if you ever do decide to come back, just know that you've got a long-time fan who will be looking forward to whatever content you put out next. :) I always loved how much thought and care you put into your analyses, and over the years I've discovered some of my favorite anime series because of your recommendations. Anyway, real life comes first, and if this is the last video you put out, I hope you enjoyed the ride, and I wish you all the best in the years ahead.
I don’t know where you are but if you’re ever still reading this…I REALLY LIKED UR VIDEOS EVEN THO I ONLY WATCHED ONE BUT IF YOU MADE MORE ID TOTSLLY WATCH I LOVE UR VOICE AND STYLE IDK I JUST LIKE IT THANK YOU FOR UR WORK! I HOPE UR DOING OKAY
Good luck my dude, thanks for all the cool vids you've made up till now! Remember in times of stress you can totally fake your death, run away to Europe, and then come back like its nbd.
@grex I dont know if you can see this, but i just wanna say. You are an amazing reviewer. I love your content so much! It really gives a great perspective on anime.
Fuck man. It was because of you I've even found some of my favorite shows of all time, I only ever heard of the OG Legend of the Galactic Hero and Kaiji because of you and I love your videos so much, to the point I think I've re-watched most of them at least 3 times in passing over the past year or so, its a shame you're going out but I understand. Im kinda saddened I wont get to hear your video on Iron blooded orphans and Gundam 00, but like you said forcing yourself to do it will show in the quality of your work and I can without a doubt say your videos are fucking quality hell better than most anime youtubers, so take it easy mate, I dont plan on unsubing so when or if you ever come back you'll still have fans waiting on you. Take care.
As a viewer, I appreciate your honesty. I wish you good luck in finding a path that is more fulfilling and stable. I'd still be very happy if you still post - if not videos, then thoughts on future anime wherever that may be (but please don't read this as something obligatory;;).
Hey man, whatever you decide, just know that you've already made a difference. I genuinely think you have the best anime reviews on UA-cam and would be sad to see you gone for good. Perhaps the hiatus will be a good thing, a way to unwind and relax and come back with renewed passion. Either way, great videos. Hopefully someday there will be some more.
That's tough man. Hate to hear that but that's alright. You should do what you want when you want if you can afford it. Maybe yu can push your projects on to a UA-camr you trust?
Honestly, good for you. The typical youtuber lifestyle is honestly reprehensible, and Ive gained a tremendous amount of respect for you. Your videos are great, but honestly ive been sibscribed as long as i have becaise im more invested in your success as a person. Honestly, i kind of suggest you run and dont look back. None of us subscribers are worth it.
Grex ;~; you produce some of the best analysis content of all the smaller Anitubers. Even your standard reviews are better than that of the hundred other average anime review channels who offer nothing besides simple reactions and theories. I will miss you
I located the LoftGH comparison episodes only now, years after release. I watch 3, then there are no more and I then find this episode. Well, at least I know not to subscribe, as I would have done otherwise.
I hope you find something to do that makes you happy. (I'd love it if you uploaded new vids in the future, but living your life in a way that feels right and fullfilling is more important.
you showed me animes that i wont have known otherwise. While I know you aint obligated to make more videos, I will miss your videos. hope it gets better for you.
man, you just pulled a Togashi on us how dare you!!! (jk) in case we never get to see a new vid from you, my farewell goes to you and here's hopes to a better life
Boi i Hope you still read comments🐬 i wachted so many animes knien and unknown and one of the only Ones i havent is fullmetal alchemist brotherhood. Is it good? Do you have any Anime Suggestions?
Wanted to leave a comment here since I still occasionally get people messaging me about the channel, and I don't want there to be any ambiguity. I am extremely thankful for everyone who's enjoyed my work, but I have no plans to make more videos. I'm afraid UA-cam is a chapter of my life that's decisively behind me.
Perfectly understandable man, enjoy what you have rather than contemplate what you’re past on. ^_^
damn i just found your channel out and enjoyed your after the rain video and i find it crazy how there's so many people just like you who abandon the youtube scene and move on with their own lives. i hope you're doing fine and good luck in whatever endeavors you may face and whatever you are doing

Ok I'll just watch the CCS video whenever I want to hear a pretty voice speaking facts
While i really like your videos, it's more important that you do what makes you feel good. You don't have any obligation to keep making videos and if you don't enjoy making them you shouldn't do it.
One day he will return. The prophesy foretells of it.
If you have ps4 I’m you can add him his username is UA-cam-Grex and he is the one with a monkey profile pic
@Deucalion Ray 😂
Unfortunately he will not upload any more videos. Check his pinned comment
I finally found someone with an appreciation of the classics I also enjoy, only to find they've already moved on to a greater, personal achievement...
Well then, I appreciate what is left behind, may your regrets be ever as absent as new content for your ongoing success in life. 🥂

Whats your first?
You will always be one of my favorite youtubers.
Yeah he is the guy who is good in the anime community
Day 1027: Dear Diary, I have once again made my way through the entirety of Grex's catalog, as always I wish him luck on whatever life has thrown his way in his absence. I will once again continue to wait for his fabled return, this time with renewed enthusiasm, after seeing the return of Demo I'm once again hopeful he will return. Until next time.
😭😭😭😭😭😭😭 I am waiting tooo bro I really want him back I really want him to make video I want to know why he stop making videos what really happens
I wish you the best on whatever you're pursuing now :)
I do love your reviews but I also want you to enjoy youtube! Do what makes you happy at the end of the day
I'm one of those newcomers who was watching/looking forward to your LOGH comparison vids. Life only happens once, don't feel guilty about taking a hiatus. Thank you for telling us instead of just disappearing.
Thank you for the videos, I wish you well whenever you are. May we meet again someday, somewhere. 🤙
i miss him yall

I will wait until the ends of time for another upload from you
Cmon bro i keep coming back to your videos searching for reviews for the anime I watched and I just keep seeing your channel since you literally have the best reviews like details no one really sees and just the way you talk. I just wish maybe i can find you randomnly in a youtube comment section.
Live your life man. Don't feel tied down to something just because it is a service to a group of people.
If you do come back I'll be here when you do. I've been following you for a while now and your reviews are some of the best I've ever seen. I hope you're doing good and cant wait to see what your choice will be
Crazy to believe it’s been two years now, hope you make a major comeback
Gotta do what ya gotta do man, only just found your galactic hero's videos and i loved them. Do your best to find your way to where and who you want to be. Best wishes.
I litterally just arrived on this channel, i watched a couple of video and i have to say it, you're great
(Sorry for my english)
Dude if you come back I wouldn't mind I don't know how long it takes you doing I get it I'll still watch your videos and spread the word with my friends and colleagues from work
I had just found you through your LOTGH comparisons and after watching a few reviews of yours I was waiting for more. Take all the time you need though. I'll just go rewatch the 3 you do have on repeat until then. I hope to see you again someday!
When u finally find a channel u really like, and see that they've been away for a long time and not posted :/
ay dude. live your life, this ain't a job and shouldn't feel like one. still hope you'll find your fun soon
We will await ur return
Always be yourself.
Don't feel forced.
Always be yourself Buddy U-U
And as such we await the return of the king. But the legacy will not be forgotten.
Good luck with what the future brings man, and seriously, try to let go of caring about some people on the internet who will be disappointed by the full stop on some series if you can, everyone should always prioritize themselves in situations like this. It can weigh down on some, but it's for the better for sure. Take care of yourself and see you around!
Sorry to hear that enjoyed your comparison videos.
Good luck with your future plans. Got to know your channel through your LotGH comparisons, the first of which appeared just after I'd started work on a comparison myself... If I have time I'll write comparisons for ep 5 onwards on the r/logh subreddit for any people who were interested in it.

I miss you
was waiting for another LOGH comparison! :( Wish you the best of luck.
What ever happens next, just wanna let you know that you inspired me on so many levels and I hope you figure out everything that needs figuring. Gonna follow your twitter feed like crazy now.
Do what you feel is best for you man, and if this is the end you made a lot of great content to be proud of.
Dude, I just watched your Legend of the Galactic Heroes videos. Now I see this. Damn why is the world such a cruel place where such great creators have doubt in their work. Lad I don´t know you and you don´t know me but I wish you the best of luck with your decisions. For making them is the only freedom we realy have.
I‘d love to see more reviews. But take care of yourself, man!

3 years later
I just found your channel and I must say I TRULY WISH YOU WOULD COME BACK!!! All the same I subscribed hoping for a miracle. I hope all is well
Well in case you won’t made videos
I always love your work, your quality is really well made
It's late, but good luck.
I just subscribed just a few seconds ago before noticing this upload. Take your time! Forcing yourself to upload with a schedule will just be a strain on yourself
What a way to close an already overemotional day...

In early September 2020, you really helped put LOGH in context for me with those comparisons.
Just subbed to you on the day this video was posted. But no pressure! I am am here to see the content you like doing!
Hope you come back soon
You take care Grex! And if you ever do decide to come back, just know that you've got a long-time fan who will be looking forward to whatever content you put out next. :) I always loved how much thought and care you put into your analyses, and over the years I've discovered some of my favorite anime series because of your recommendations.

Your videos are great, hope to see you next time for real...
Your one of my favorite youtubers I subscribed to

What better comeback than a review of Watamote? 😇 I can't think of one
As a viewer, I appreciate your honesty. I wish you good luck in finding a path that is more fulfilling and stable. I'd still be very happy if you still post - if not videos, then thoughts on future anime wherever that may be (but please don't read this as something obligatory;;).
Just want you to know that I turned notifications on
Same, why do the good content creators leave? Oh the humanity! 😖
Thanks for telling me that your going on Hiatus .That’s great that your taking a week
It's sad but do what feels right. Hoping that you will still release like a video in month or few. But still good luck
Have a happy life and follow whatever you want.
We shall wait
Fairwell Grex .If you come back it’s been a pleasure seeing you on UA-cam
Hey man, whatever you decide, just know that you've already made a difference. I genuinely think you have the best anime reviews on UA-cam and would be sad to see you gone for good. Perhaps the hiatus will be a good thing, a way to unwind and relax and come back with renewed passion. Either way, great videos. Hopefully someday there will be some more.
It’s ok bro
Enjoyed your thoughts on After the rain. It’s where I found you from
That's tough man. Hate to hear that but that's alright. You should do what you want when you want if you can afford it.
Maybe yu can push your projects on to a UA-camr you trust?
Honestly, good for you. The typical youtuber lifestyle is honestly reprehensible, and Ive gained a tremendous amount of respect for you. Your videos are great, but honestly ive been sibscribed as long as i have becaise im more invested in your success as a person. Honestly, i kind of suggest you run and dont look back.

Its so sad finding a new channel and seeing they haven't uploaded in 2 years but I hope ur having a good life
Hope you get better
Grex ;~; you produce some of the best analysis content of all the smaller Anitubers. Even your standard reviews are better than that of the hundred other average anime review channels who offer nothing besides simple reactions and theories. I will miss you

After the Rain brought me here and I hope to see you soon.
Just dropped in to say I hope you're doing well
For God's sake I just subscribed and I like the videos you make!!!
Edit: Feel free to come back whenever!!

We still have hope.
Can you Talk About Kaitou Joker?
Don’t worry about it, take all the time you need.
Just upload that Naruto Shippuden video when you get the chance please ;)
No worries Grex, take care of yourself. See ya, space cowboy
I hope you come back
Finding a video series of interest and then realizing that the channel died half a year ago without ever finishing it. Story of my life it seems.
I hope you come back someday
The World God Only Knows i need to know where i can read it please
