It's been 2 years since I've visited this channel. I started watching in 2017 and ended up loving you guys and your work. I'm gonna miss the old name and you guys like Arbiter, Sam, Thomas, Roa, and Derp brought us great memories ❤

[@legomaniak07]

I would like to say a few words about it: I've been following Black Plasma Studios, Squared Media at this point, for a long time. I remember the good times and the bad ones and I was always impressed with the creativity and care you put into each of your animations. It's a shame that Sam and Thomas left this scene, they both deserve a big thank you for everything they've done. I think they will remain in the hearts of the whole community. Black Plasma Studios is not just any KZbin channel, it is a channel where sad and happy stories from the world of Minecraft come to life, which can excite the watchers and listeners and make them feel that they would rather be in the animation and stay there forever. I'm so glad that even though Sam and Thomas left, the rest of the team stayed and didn't give up on that amazing dream. I look forward to next animations and stories you create together in the future, either together or with other creators. While it's a sad moment to see the OG days leave the community, it's a beautiful start to something wonderful that I hope will be a success. You are a team that sticks together and has great ideas, be brave and please keep making your amazing animations. Personally, I will try to support your work as much as possible, although I don't have many ways to do it. And I'm sure the community will help you as much as they can. Together we will get to the top of mountins and we will stay there! It's a big change, but I'm excited to see what it brings. 😁

[@AkiValorant]

It's sad to see my Childhood fade away, so many things have changed. Ever since the cancellation of Songs Of War Season 2/3, I personally think that the Channel slowly died. Sure, the Steve and Alex series and some other animation was a banger but it seemed like after the cancellation I didn't think any of the animations were that much of a hype anymore. Songs Of War is still and forever will be one of the greatest animations I have watched, the Music and Scenery is too beautiful to be true. But anyway times have gone by fast and I wish you all the best for your upcoming development of this channel and community.

I have known your channel for a very long time... I was very pleased to watch it. you grew, grew. more and more. I also found a black plasma studio and most often I watch the video “Songs of War”. I really, really love this animation and every time I watch it, at some moments tears come, sometimes it’s funny, and sometimes I understand that this is your best animation for me. thank you for all these years of effort and work, thank you for everything, black plasma studio! I actually didn’t think that someone would leave your team and you would change the name of the channel. all this is big news for me. I'm sad that when you were called black plasma studio, I didn't appreciate it. Now I want to go back in time and tell myself: “watch them, watch them every day, while they are called that, before no one leaves their team, because in the future this will happen and you will miss that atmosphere. I want to say thank you guys again for everything! I know that you are trying very hard for us, and if you ever leave KZbin, I will go to your channel every day and see if there are new videos?

A legendary era is now beginning! Best of luck to you all!

[@justacommenter13]

Been waiting for this announcement. I, like many others, will miss what was, but with high hopes for the future of this channel. Good luck to everyone at Squared Media, and to the two who left. Change may bring fear and trepidation, but change can be good and bring greater things.

This channel will always be Black Plasma Studios to me.

As an old veteran of this channel, I'm sad to see the name of the channel go, back before I even had an email and KZbin account I was watching the old Halo 3 machinima's, that's how long I've been around this channel, and I want to just say, thank you for the long but amazing ride to this day, its been an absolute pleasure and seeing the channel grow and go to new places makes me smile, take it easy gentleman, I hope the best for all of you❤

Black Plasma Studios... Is evolving! It's finally good to hear from their channel after 3 months!

Desdanza en paz black plasma studios fue una gran parte de mi infancia se siente raro pero espero q siga llendo asi de bien ya que nos trajeron joyas como canciones de guerra entre otros espero q puedan seguir creando contenido la verdad es muy entretenido ver las animacion :]

[@garettjohnson6978]

Dang, I'm gonna miss B.P.S as much as everyone else, maybe more considering I only just got into this channel maybe a year or two ago, but I feel like this new age is going to be AWESOME! Best of luck to you, Squared Media, and can't wait for what the future entails!

[@CobaltXMusic]

I can’t wait for what comes next! Immediately applying with Hope of being part of this new era!

[@ColeJJJTurner]

Can still remember when this was a Halo 2/3/Reach Machinima and Game Night KZbin channel that had 25,000-50,000 subscribers. Don't really watch the content here anymore, mainly subscribed for history purposes, but it's fascinating/feels good to see this growth since the switch to Minecraft. Sad to see Arbiter leave though and the channel rebrand. Doesn't really feel like Black Plasma Studios anymore and more so other people taking it over for the subscriber count. Nothing lasts forever though and everyone moves on to new things. It's just nice to know the original crew has done well for themselves while pursuing other projects they're passionate about and that they'll be keeping their legacy alive by handing the keys over to someone else to keep it going.

David was a bad person he was a pedophile

[@Mont27P]

Most of the crew although not OGs of course have been around for 3 years or more and we all seem to love our jobs, so I wouldn't say taking it over for the sub count. Striker and MichaeL are the only 2 "new" directors who have been here for about half a year. Matt I can vouch for being around since 2016, possibly earlier, so still some good roots to build from between all of us. But for sure it'll be interesting to see how things go. Appreciate the comment :D

[@ilyasburki7804]

I'm glad they are becoming bigger but i miss black plasma studios, and of course we need SoW S.2

[@robertkennedy4114]

I'm glad the channel is still here even if it's just a name change. I'm not sure where it'll go from here. But please continue making animations. I like them.❤

[@uzielgalindo9118]

I’m gonna miss Black Plasma Studios and the old branding too. But I can’t wait for the future animation projects.

[@WellydaWK1000]

Guys, I got scared when I saw a different channel in my subscriptions, then when I go to see both the name and the photo of the channel it changed, it was Black Plasma Studios, different 😅 but it still looks beautiful 👏🏻❤️
