YouTube Scriptwriter for Anime Video Essays

I run a faceless anime YouTube channel built on commentary and video-essay style content: countdowns, character breakdowns, and "why anime does X" style videos, all carried by voice-over and clips. I'm looking for a writer who can turn a topic into a tight, funny, retention-heavy script that keeps people watching to the end. This is anime-fan work, not generalist work. If you don't actually watch anime, this isn't the gig. The whole video lives or dies on having real takes and getting the details right, and anime audiences roast a single wrong fact in the comments. What you'd write -Voice-over scripts, roughly 2,000 to 2,500 words each (about 12 to 16 minutes spoken) - Formats like "the goofiest characters who locked in," "anime villains who were right," "why is anime obsessed with X" - Conversational scripts meant to be read aloud, with clip cues where relevant - Ongoing work, ideally one to two scripts a week for the right person What I actually care about - Retention structure. You understand hooks, open loops, curiosity bridges between sections, a mid-video reset, ordering segments so tension builds, and saving the biggest beat for the end. A script that just lists things loses people. - Natural spoken voice. Short sentences. Rhythm. It has to sound like a real person talking, not an essay being read. Read your own work out loud, if it feels awkward to say, it won't work here. - A killer intro. The first five to ten lines have to hook hard and get to the point fast. No long warmups. Real knowledge and accuracy. You can find fresh angles instead of ChatGPT summaries, you get the facts right, and you keep everything to what has actually aired in the anime or manga
