Yusef has been creating his own "cinematic universe" for his channel which feature characters including Ota-chan, Jerry, Assistant-kun, Shinji the Pizza Delivery Man, and the Narrator. His characters are voiced by LOLLIA, GLENLOVESANIME, AverageAnimeFan, RCAnime, Zoiney, and BaronJ.
Yusef the creator of the channel originally made it to talk to his clueless cousin about anime hence the original name of the channel being Otaku vs Notaku a series of podcast like videos. The direction of the the channel then moved towards Solo Reviews, Reactions and Top Videos. His break out hit Why Hayao Miyazaki Sucks changed the direction of his channel once again to much more highly edited videos as well as creating his own stories and Adventures. Currently he is still doing this and has been for over a year now.
It is known by many of his Fans (The YusTubers) that his characters all exist in an interconnected Otakuverse similar to that of MCU. As well as that is actually a chronological order to watch all the videos . Many fans like to spot characters such Shinji from Shinji's Pizzeria in the background of videos.
