Hello, my name is AdPro.
I am a person that's mainly interested in Japanese/European languages and media.
For the time being, I am focused on a series titled, "AdPro's Thoughts" where I
talk about various things that I'm interested in and like,
and a channel named "The Goro and The Pro Show!", where me
and TheCoolPangoro play games and react to stuff.

Hi guys, AdPro here!

Today is a glorious day!
Jailhouse Games, my indie dev team, now has an official website!
We will be posting all future projects on there so be sure to check it out every so often!
At the moment there's not much content so expect there to be more added over time.

Hi guys, AdPro here!
As most of you may have noticed, I have not been streaming like I said I would lately.
Looks like it's time for me to explain myself again.

To put it in the best words I can, life is getting in the way of what I want to do on YouTube.
My college schedule and my off-YouTube project time has been taking a lot out of me to juggle and maintain.

Recently, I got promoted to be the Administrator of the Ao Oni Fandom Wiki so I have been keeping tabs on that and making sure it's a lot better to use than before.
I've also been managing a separate fan-games wiki for Ao Oni, alongside my friend Logatron.
While I asked others in some smaller circles to help contribute to that wiki, no one seemed to have the motivation to make pages on there, so I'm practically doing the heavy-lifting.

My work on Code Lyoko related projects (Code Lyoko Japan's Graphical Design and Carthage Subbing work) has been pretty slow and I'm uncertain if things will give me any leeway.

AdPro's Thoughts Episode 4 is still on my mind, and I've even recorded partial audio for the episode, but I can't really produce the episode yet due to a lack of complete footage and understanding of the material.
As all of you probably already know from the tease at the end of Episode 3, Episode 4 will be covering Half-Life.
I have played all Half-Life 1 games and expansions, and all of Half-Life 2's content, but I have yet to complete Half-Life Alyx. Plus, I don't have footage for Half-Life Decay, HL2, HL2 EP1, HL2 EP2, nor Alyx at all. So Episode 4 may take longer to finish up than Episode 3, only time will tell.

On the brighter side of things, I'm getting back into the swing of doing things for The Goro and The Pro Show!
In fact, at 5:00 to 6:00 PM EST tonight, three more episodes of Phoenix Wright Justice for All will be put out!
Before anyone asks, we are already aware that the Apollo Justice Trilogy has released and I already own it, but we want to finish up the Wright Trilogy first before moving to the Justice Trilogy.

Anyways, hopefully that cleared up everything to do with me at the moment.
Feel free to keep an eye out for new content, but don't expect too much.

Hi guys, AdPro here!
Looks like I got some splainin to dooo!

As you guys may have noticed, even though I got the poll results
and I said I'd be streaming on Tuesdays on a semi-weekly basis,
I'm going to have to come clean with some info.

As I've stated before, I am a college student that attends full-time,
and since I've already registered for classes for the Spring term of 2024,
the circumstances of my streaming schedule have changed.

My new schedule dictates that I have to physically be in class on Tuesdays at night.
This means that if I were to stick with the Tuesday streaming schedule,
there'd be a huge conflict between my class time and streaming time which can't be avoided.

Unfortunately to those who voted for Tuesday streams,
this means I'll have to go for the 2nd Place winner of the poll and go for Saturday streams at 5:30 PM EST,
if I want to keep up with my school and streaming without problems.

This was something completely out of my control, so hopefully you all understand.
I didn't make anyone upset or offended.

See you all Saturday!

Hi guys, AdPro here!
The time has come! The poll results have been collected,
and it looks like I will be streaming on Tuesdays at 5:30 PM EST on a semi-weekly basis from now on.

Please keep in mind that when I say a "semi-weekly" basis, that means there will be weeks where I won't stream at all. With this upcoming week however, I will be streaming that Tuesday!
So see you all there!

EDIT: Since Saturday was a runner-up in the vote, I will also occasionally stream on Saturdays as well!

Hi guys, AdPro here!
Tonight was my first stream on YouTube, and it went unexpectedly well.
At the end of the stream, I asked if I should hold a poll for when I hold the streams.
I have a few potential dates as to when it'll be possible for me to hold streams on a semi-weekly basis, so it'll be up to you guys to help decide for me.
Keep in mind that the times listed are in Eastern Standard Time (EST), so you may have to do some prior research to see when these times fit within your region's time zone.

Also keep in mind that I do not intend to go on for more than 3 hours each stream
(sometimes I might unexpectedly go over, depending on what content I stream)

So feel free to pick an option that is best for you! I will be collecting the results for the poll by Wednesday, the 15th, so get your votes in!

Hi guys, let's talk about AdPro's Thoughts.

It's been a while since I last posted anything about the series, but here I am giving an update on what's going on. First things first, you may notice that Episode 1 and Episode 2 aren't visible when you view my channel, nor on the "Videos" section of the channel.
That's because there's going to be a few changes with the series that will be for the better.

Firstly, the episodes aren't GONE. They're still viewable if you check the "Playlists" tab on the channel.
I have labelled the playlist "AdPro's Thoughts (480p Copies)".
The reason for which leads me into what I'm about to say next.

Episode 3 of AdPro's Thoughts has been finished and is ready to be released to the public later today!

For this episode of the series, I opted to make the big change from 4:3 (640x480) to 16:9 (1920x1080)
that will continue throughout the series, and will overall make the series feel less dated than before.
It will also help if I'm covering a series that has visual material that's in 16:9 by default, that way we
don't have any pesky borders ruining the experience.

Also, the series now has an intro which will play at the beginning of every episode.
Which brings me to my final point.

Because of the change from 4:3 to 16:9, I have gone back to try and make Episodes 1 and 2 work with the 16:9 aspect ratio, and I think the results are good enough to where I'm willing to re-release the episodes in 1080p resolution with the new intro to be consistent with the rest of the series. The episodes will be released relatively around the same time Episode 3 comes out. And yes, there will be a playlist for all three episodes, in 1080p, once they are out.

But, that doesn't mean I'm going to delete the original versions off the face of the internet.
I love giving people options for whatever versions of the episodes they wanna see rather than taking options away.
That's why I have the "480p Copies" playlist available for you guys.
And for the sake of convenience, I will be putting Episode 3 in both playlists once it comes out.
So if the 1080p versions of the first two episodes aren't up to snuff, there's always the 480p playlist.

Anyways, I hope this news was helpful to those wondering where I went, I've been busy with life and other things.
But don't worry, I haven't forgotten about the channel, I am still aiming to come up with ideas for videos.

As a note to end on, today marks the 1 year anniversary of AdPro's Thoughts.
So hopefully you guys will enjoy Episode 3 and show support for the series as a whole.

That's gonna do it for me, see you guys in Episode 3 of AdPro's Thoughts!
