Funny how they think that because they are drawing the animation that Toei can't copyright strike them. It's not the drawing but you making money on the property itself that can cause them to cease and desist.
I also love that they no longer use their YouTube names but their real names as if they are serious actors.
Wow I just looked and they actually have 4 different channels, a lets play, movie review, twitch highlights, and the main one. These faggots really are trying to become the next rooster teeth.
Masako has his own DBZ fanfiction What If channel that has nearly 500K subs.
He gets $1274 a month and since the average CPM for youtube is about $2 he gets about $3000 a month from views. He streams too so he probably gets even more from that, smart of him to have a plan to be independent of that lazy fuck Kaiser.
If you look at his channel he updates multiple times a week as well, but his views are garbage. And if you look over time:
His views are tanking per month, they were at over 4 million at his peak but it's not at 1.5 million. His patreon has dropped since 2018 as well, he was getting $2500 a month at one point. Over the past 15 months or so his income has halved and TeamFourStar has seen their Patreon numbers drop as well, though I think in Masako's case his Radditz timeline was crazy popular but once that ended his channel has been slowly dying. TFS not updating probably hasn't helped him though since he is still tied to it.

TFS helped me through dork times, guize. I like it better than the official translation, guize!

I think they switched to what could be MikuMikuDance so they can excuse their slow release schedule. It's like the animated equivalent of moving from a sprite webcomic to a normal webcomic (or at least one that doesn't use copy-paste for everything).

Moving to 'their own animation' doesn't change the fact that they are lame joke thieves.
