Hi everyone, I'm Matt Walsh, and I'm here today to put a lot of fears to rest and hopefully to begin the process of healing for many of you and for me also. A few months back, a brave young man confronted me in public about comments that I made allegedly against the anime community. What's your opinion on anime? It's really popular amongst teens and young adults. I think it's all satanic. Words matter. He informed me and although I thought I was just a man simply giving his opinions about one of the worst genres of entertainment. This young man let me know that what I was doing was no less than one of the worst acts of stochastic terrorism in American history. But he offered me salvation. In exchange for his contributions to further childhood literacy, I agreed to watch a full season of the anime show, One Punch Man. So if we started to go fund me to buy a hundred books, you would live stream,

you watching a season of anime? Yes. Now, preparation for this event, a special chamber was constructed. here at the Daily Wire, this fortress ensures that no one can get in or out during the screening of this anime. What you're about to witness, while truly stunning and brave, is also quite graphic in parts, a true story of one man's descent into madness and the miraculous story of his return. I know I've broken some promises in the past, but I'm now starting the process of amending those wrongs. I'm not the only one who has broken some promises, though. Have you ever noticed how corporations will promise you one thing, but then give you another. Take search engines, for example. Google claims that incognito mode allows for private browsing, but it doesn't actually hide your

activity. In fact, it doesn't matter what mode you use or how many times you clear your browsing history, your internet service provider, your employer, your school, and other unwelcome eyes can still see every single website you've ever visited. That's why I never go online without using ExpressVPN. It doesn't matter who your internet provider is in the U.S. They can legally sell your information to add companies, a true violation of trust, if I've ever heard of one. ExpressVPN is an app that reroutes all of your online activity through their secure servers so that your ISP workplace or network admin cannot monitor it. ExpressVPN also encrypts 100% of your data to protect you from hackers. ExpressVPN is incredibly easy to use, and it's available on all your devices.

Maybe they'd forgotten about me. What if everyone left and I'm doomed to sit here for an eternity watching entertainment for the most tasteless audience in history? Don't look at the time. It's a distraction. In at least four hours, maybe five. Just hold out for a little while longer.

Then look. It'd be closer to the end of this nightmare. The end credits. Another episode in the bag must be near the end of this torture by now. It doesn't make any sense. It's almost over. Okay, look at the time. I can feel my grip on reality straining.

Every minute I spend in here, I'm getting weaker. All anime fans get stronger. It'll gain a deeper understanding of their community if I just watch a season. That's all bull-de-h-h-h-hick. Struggle! Got to stay strong. Keep going. Right is becoming left.

Bad is becoming good. Trying to break me down. They find my body. I hope they know I hold on until the very end. I hope they know I watched as much anime as humanly possible. I made it. Much like the audience of the view, I've survived some of the worst torture of man can endure. Was the anime community right? As watching a season of One Punch Man opened my eyes to their art, their culture?
