Transcripts
hi I'm taku May welcome back to
video so where do I start well first I
guess I start with I am sorry I am so
sorry to you guys I know it has been two
months since I last uploaded anything on
this channel video um Demon Slayer it
was and then I kind of just left you
guys hanging and I feel very very bad
about that I really really sorry I know
that people have been worried about me
asking where I've been both on Twitter
and here I have been active on Twitter
so people have been able to WR there but
I haven't been addressing the question
which is where am I why am I not
uploading where have I been what am I up
to am I okay I am okay nothing is wrong
with me so thank you for everyone who
reached out and sent kind words and was
worried about me I'm sorry for worrying
you no I'm completely fine healthwise
and all that um but I do have some
things I want to share with
you yeah um B I didn't want to make this
video I have been holding off I haven't
been able to make it for several reasons
but the biggest one being that I just
didn't want to film it because it's a
tough video to film and but also I have
other situations we're going to explain
which is why this video took so long for
me to make some of you might be aware
from following me on Twitter or from my
um Journey on YouTube that when I
started this channel I was in uni I was
a university student um during the brink
of covid and I was studying medicine and
for the four years I have been uploading
I have been going through medical school
it's 5 years here I began in the end of
my first year and throughout that whole
journey I was uploading videos without
taking more than a 2 week break somehow
I managed and it was tricky with my busy
schedule especially when covid kind of
passed and I was in placements and
things people might be aware of that as
well and that's why I've only be able to
upload two to three videos a week I
never was able to react to everything
that you guys wanted and everything that
I would have liked to because I was busy
with uni and then in may I finished uni
I passed all my exams and in June I
graduated and thank you to everyone who
congratulated me for graduating over on
Twitter I shared a few pictures there
and it was lovely to share that with you
guys and yeah so I graduated and I went
on holiday and then I came out from
holiday and there were a lot of changes
I moved house I don't actually live in
this house anymore which is one of the
reasons that I took so long to film this
I wanted to film this with my normal
background so I waited until I came to
visit home before I did that um so I've
moved and I'm in a new place it's
unfamiliar to me and along with that I
started working as a doctor and that has
been quite a journey to get accustomed
to being a doctor going from a medical
student to a doctor it's a big jump yeah
a lot of changes so now that I'm a
doctor I mean I was telling you guys it
was already quite hectic while I was
studying but being a doctor means that I
have a very very limited amount of free
time much less than I used to when I'm
working I get exhausted by the end of
the day I have no time for anything and
then on my days off I spend them resting
and seeing friends what catching up on
anime like one piece of me binging when
I'm off and just kind of spending time
for myself and the people that I care
about and because of that I just how do
I say
this I don't really have the time for
YouTube anymore from the beginning I had
no idea where this channel was going to
go from my reviews to my reactions
starting with rezero and continuing and
how big the channel go I know I'm still
kind of a baby channel compared to
others but I have a lovely Community
here that I've grown with you guys and I
never expected to make it this far or to
keep doing reactions for this long and
to enjoy it as much as I have but I have
but I'm just not able to keep up anymore
you know I I don't want to say goodbye
but I just don't have the time to commit
to YouTube I can't keep up at regular
schedule my timetable is different week
to week currently all my days that I
work are 12 and 1/2 hours um so I work 3
to 4 days a week and then I have days
off that's how it is right now it'll
change later to being like 9 to5 and
also 12 and a half hour shifts and
having less days off and that's why I
just can't commit to a schedule with you
guys and that's why it really hurts to
say but yeah I'm quitting
YouTube and and I'm getting emotional
about it now I I never wanted to say
goodbye I never even thought about it
but I think a part of me knew that when
uni was over and I was going to step
into the world of adult life being a
doctor which is what my dream was and is
I would have to let go of YouTube and
like I said I never thought I would get
this big and I'd have to say goodbye to
how many are we 37,000 of you and I'm
sorry I really am like I didn't want to
make this video because I know I'd be
disappointing so many people I hate to
disappoint you guys you guys who have
been waiting for my reactions have been
standing by me have been there since day
one I know some of you have been there
since the beginning and I can't tell you
how much that means to me I love every
single one of you and you guys gave me
so much you don't even know like when I
had no one to talk to about anime you
guys were there when I wanted to share
and Rave and Fang girl like crazy you
guys were there to listen to me and
engage with me and your comments and
likes and Views meant the absolute word
to me especially the comments to
everyone who's ever commented thank you
so so much I have loved interacting with
you you guys are such a big part of my
life especially when it comes to anime
which is such a big part of my life as
is and there are people who stand out to
me profiles from the beginning that I
recognize and ones who joined along the
way and have been so interactive with me
have been talking to me through here
through Twitter everyone who dm' me on
Twitter just say they like my videos it
means the absolute world to me and I
can't thank you guys enough for these
four more than 4 years we celebrated 4
years in May it's been 4 years and a few
months and I can't thank you guys enough
for for this time that I spent on
YouTube for being such a lovely
Community you guys are actually the best
and that's why I'm so sad to have to
disappoint you guys and to say that
there'll be no more reactions whether I
ever come back or not I can't really say
there are things that I would have loved
to be able to react to like rezero which
is coming back next season and I S my
reactions are rezero I would have loved
to reaity I really wanted to but I just
can't you know it's out with my control
I just this is the path that I chose I
guess so is because of my choices but I
am enjoying being a doctor it's been
great like achieving um what I wanted to
do all along and going through five
years of medicine and finally G to work
and help people you know picture chopper
from One Piece I'm Chopper right now but
I'm not stealing the Seas and I don't
have um as exciting a life as Chopper
does but I'm a doctor and I'm happy with
being a doctor I'm really really happy
and if you guys could support me on that
and accept why this is the way things
have to be that would mean a lot to me
and I'd really appreciate it and
yeah I'm really sorry you guys I am I
