Been debating on whether or not I should get rid the Pacific Rim aspect of the sequel and doing my own thing with it. Over time I've been realising that using Crossovers is not only kind of lazy but it's extremely hard to included all of those other elements into a pre-existing story.
          	
          	MMmmmm I'll think about it.

I've started work on the next chapter of PM, it won't take nearly as much time as the prelude did. I've also touched up on a few conversations in Chapter 4 of PM, specifically the last one, since it's an important part of that chapter.
          
          I'm aiming for Chapter 6 to be not as long (Minimum is going to be 20k Words) just so I don't have to make both you and me wait months for a single chapter. Chances are that the next chapter will be at the tail end of September or Beginning of October, but you and I both know I suck at keeping to schedules with writing.
          At the end of the day, the chapter is just going to have to take as long as it needs to, but I will make sure it doesn't take AS long.
          Aight, update over. Bub Byeeeeee.

Alright guys, so... I've run into a bit of a problem.
          The prelude is finished at a fucking massive 61k words (jesus christ I'm so sorry) and everything is ready to go. But, I ended up porting the chapter to word, since the auto correct system there helped streamline the proofreading process and now whenever I copy the text back into Wattpad, all of the bold, italics and underlines default to normal text, which is arguably necessary for the best reading experience and undercuts the severity of some scenes.
          
          I really don't want to have to go into the chapter and meticulously re-add the italics one at a time, so I'm going to keep looking for an alternative. On the bright side though, I'm gonna post the fully complete prelude, with italic text and all on the proper fanfiction website, so you can read it there until it's available here on Wattpad. This is the best temporary solution, and honestly I've been thinking about swapping from Wattpad to FF for a while now, so who knows.
          
          Thank you for your patience, I'm gonna go put up the actual chapter on FanFiction.net now. I worked super hard on it, so hopefully ya'll enjoy it.

When is the next chapter of Pacific Mayhem coming out? I mean, if you have tons of other stuff, then I understand.

@mecha-sonic Soon. I'm currently close to finishing the Prelude rewrite, it should've come out by now if I'm honest, but my stubborn ass made it 40k words long, so there's a lot to go over.
            Next Chapter of Pacific Mayhem is right after the Prelude releases, I'm just prioritising it so I can have it done and dusted. Thanks for your patience regardless though, I appreciate it.

Hey guys.
          Yes, I'm still alive. Life's been real hectic as of recently and it hasn't really left me any time to continue writing. Either way, I wanted to draw attention to two things today.
          1. The Enter the Monsterverse's rewrite of the prelude is like 80-90% finished. All I have to do is finish one section and do the last bit of the ending and it should be ready.
          2. The original ETM is now at 20k views... That is just unprecedented. Nothing could have prepared me for that, in any way.
          I can't really word it right now, due to a lack of words for it, but all I can really say is Thank You. It means a lot to me, in more ways then you know.
          The prelude rewrite will be done this month, I'll try and make sure of it.

Hey everyone.
          So, I've been kinda quiet for the last couple of weeks, sorry about that. College Deadlines have been kicking my ass for a while now, but I think I'm past the worse of it, so we're gonna start picking up speed on chapter progress. (I think I left the rewrite of the prelude at 14k last I checked.)
          
          But, that is not the only thing I wanted to talk about.
          
          So, recently I've been busy making a little stop motion comic of the first scene in Chapter one of Enter the Monsterverse as a college project, and I just finished it today. So, here it is.

          This took me months to make, so I hope the effort was worth it. Please enjoy it!
          
          Alright, I gotta sleep now. I'll see you guys when the Prelude rewrite releases.

Heya, everyone. Chapter 5 is almost ready, so I figured I'd say it now just so there's no confusion with what comes after.
          When I post Chapter 5, I will primarily focus on completing the Kiryu: Enter the Monsterverse Rewrite. I have a myriad of reasons for doing this, both personal and just coming from common sense, but the main one is that seeing the original get so many views is starting to weigh down on me a bit because of the quality the OG is. I mean, seriously, we're 16K for a story that, while a cool concept, is flawed in a variety of ways. Giving Enter the Monsterverse the Make over it deserves is going to be my primary goal once Chapter 5 goes out.
          
          Now, this doesn't mean I'm just not going to be working on Pacific Mayhem in the meantime nor does this mean you'll be deprieved of Luna and Kiryu yelling at each other (Chapter 5 is going to end up being 15k words, so you'll have plenty to chew on.) I just feel like it's necessary before I do anything else. Get the story straight, make sure to establish character personalities and events better, the whole shaboom shabang.
          
          As for what happens to the Original, I honestly couldn't tell ya. I've debated on what I'll do for a very long time, whether or not to keep the OG separate, to completely get rid of the old chapters in favour of the new, all that stuff. 
          
          But what I've ultimately decided to do is unpublish the Originals and put the rewrite ones in their place to avoid confusion. The original ones will still exist and if people really want it I'll make a thing so that you can read them again if you want, but that's what I plan on doing.
          
          Thanks for coming to my TedTalk. Chapter 5 coming soon.
