Acting for Two: Suede voices himself and all his clones.
Career Resurrection: Suede's views had been on a downturn for quite a while with him mentioning in his Pokémon Season 1 review he might've had to retire from reviewing had the retrospective turned out poorly. Thankfully the opposite occurred and Suede can now do reviews for a living.
Cowboy BeBop at His Computer: In his "Pikachu and Pichu" review, Suede insists real-world animals have been retconned out of the Pokémon franchise, claiming that they haven't appeared since the St. Anne episodes. Not only have there been several post-St. Anne appearances by real world animals, the "Pikachu and Pichu" short itself had a statue of a real-world horse.
Creator Backlash: He mentioned in a Pokémon Journey episode that he's trying to let people forget his earlier Animenia reviews of the movies.
Flip-Flop of God: Suede initally wasn't sure himself how far he'd take his Pokémon reviews, saying near the beginning he expected to only cover the original series and maybe Orange Islands if enough interest was there to be worth it. Eventually, he began doing the Johto episodes. In addition during the "The Rivalry Revival," he talks about Kadabra's eventual ban from the anime stating "we will talk more about why when we reach its final appearance" which is the Season 9 opener. This indicates that Suede plans to cover at least all of Pokémon: The Original Series and Pokémon the Series: Ruby and Sapphire, though Suede's continuing copyright struggles put this plan into question.
Lying Creator: Asserted repeatedly on his Twitter that he couldn't make it to the Year 3 Shoot and wouldn't appear (though both his wife and his mother blew the cover, but nobody noticed).
The video that got the attention of That Guy himself—a rant about the idiocy of YouTube's rationale for taking down The Nostalgia Critic videos—is now lost and gone forever; he saved it on a long-gone college computer and, seeing as he promised to take the video down once the issue was resolved, it's no longer on YouTube.
His wife was going to post various photos and videos of the Year 3 Shoot, but the iPod that had all the files on it was stolen and wiped clean.
Suede laments in his "Top 11 American Anime" that, in spite of the entire rest of the series (except Episode 10) being available online, The Legend of Calamity Jane: Episode 11, "Protégé" (an episode with a plot so powerful it got burned into his brain) is one of these.
The Animenia reviews of the first three Pokémon movies were unlisted after #ChangeTheChannel posthumously revealed that JewWario was a sexual predator. Suede also announced that he will re-review the movies with Linkara.
Prop Recycling: The cravat he uses in Ask That Dude in the Suede was also his ninja headband in AMV Heaven Episode 3.
Schedule Slip: Due to getting ill twice and having a hard to transition into a full-time job.
Screwed by the Lawyers: In a disturbingly innovative tactic, Shogakukan Productions issued a lawsuit in Japanese court demanding 80,200 yen for using the Pokémon anime for his content in a nation where fair use is effectively nonexistent, dooming his channel without any path for recourse. With little choice but to accept his fate, he made a video and Patreon post detailing the situation and urging people to spread the word with the #Shoprogambit and #Geoblocking4All hashtags.
Spoony's cameo in GYMDK - Wiz'n'Liz: The Frantic Wabbit Wescue was originally meant for Suede, but he declined.
His wife was going to post various photos and videos of the Year 3 Shoot, but the iPod that had all the files on it was stolen and wiped clean.
Future Pokémon reviews after Pokémon 4Ever were quite obviously originally planned to be tagging JesuOtaku in for Linkara, with JewWario still being the third member of the team as Lewis Lovhaug has stated he probably wasn't doing more due to not watching them growing up. Even the opening card for 4Ever says Justin was the only one planned to do every movie with him, and his passing has clearly broken Suede's motivation to do any more.
Working Title: The first episode of Fandom Stranger is called Anime Weirdness.
Written-In Infirmity: His review of the Pokémon: The Series episode "The Pi-Kahuna" was done while he was recovering from illness. Rather than straining his usual overdubs, he solved the problem by narrating the whole thing from the perspective of the One-Shot Character Victor, in what he admits was an extended parody of The Big Lebowski.
His favourite Magic: The Gathering cards are Baneslayer Angel, Platinum Angel and Guardian Seraph. He also made a drawing of a young Sorin Markov, that he uses as his DeviantArt icon.
He is a veteran AMV maker and won various Christchurch AMV contests.
He comissoned his wife (then girlfriend) to draw this.
His computer hardware is an 2.66 GHz Intel Core i5 iMac and his editing software is Adobe Premiere Pro CS5.
After finishing his missionary duties in Auckland he went back to Christchurch, where he stayed for three months. He then had to go to Auckland to go to San Francisco to go to Utah to marry. He then went to Chicago with his wife to participate in the TGWTG Year 3 shoot. He then went back to Christchurch, where he lived in a caravan parked in front lawn of his parents' house that he rented from them for two months. He now lives with his wife in a house they rented from a Russian language professor until November.
The reason why he used the Sheath Strike in Suburban Knights was because the katana used was real, and he accidentally cut Rob Walker's forehead.
, the "Pikachu and Pichu" short itself had a statue of a real-world horse.
