Reaction streams have been the focus for many top Twitch stars lately. What began with MasterChef streams soon evolved into anime watch-alongs with copyrighted shows in full focus.
Toast was even part of the driving force behind the anime switch. After calling out MasterChef reactions, he soon spiced things up by watching full episodes of Naruto on his Twitch channel.
