Oh Japan, you so funny.

bakabt backup when?
>>111186719
Maybe if they provided translations for this shit then I wouldn't need to.
This is why I have an entire hard drive dedicated to my backlog.
Daiz will stop this from happening.
>>111186752
>bakabt backup when?
You can start right now. Good luck backing up seeders though.
Such a waste of time and resources, seriously a fucking waste of time. This will accomplish absolutely nothing.
I bet Daiz is behind this
I am sure some Japanese companies will manage what Hollywood never did.
time to go back to to hunting XDCC's
>>111186760
this.
If Japanese publishers gave two shits about the west I wouldn't have to rely on drama filled scanlations groups.
>>111186719
OMG THEY GONNA SEND US 128KB OF TEXT!!
THE HORROR!
WE NEED BACKUP NAO!! BUT I AM NOT GONNA DO IT! YOU GUYS DO IT!!
Dammit Daiz, stop killing anime and save anime
>>111186719
>As a result, this week the Japanese government will act in order to preserve what it sees as one of its greatest cultural exports.
Seriously? What a joke.
I live in kanagawa and my isp knows I torrent fansubbed animu
>>111186857
>I am sure some Japanese companies will manage what Hollywood never did.
You're serious, right? A bunch of average anime company compared to Jewllywood?
>>111186719
If they actually follow through on offering cheap, legal alternatives, I don't mind too much.
>one of its greatest cultural exports
hahaha
>Asking China to please stop pirating
>legal copies
>few hundred yen
I'd probably buy shows if they were priced like that for a good quality download.
I hope Daiz gets fucked by this. The Jewish little fuck.
Goodbye nyaa
>"We want to create a project so that anime fans overseas can enjoy."
>Let's try to destroy something harmless
>>111186719
The people who actually know anything about the internet have failed to ever "crack down" on piracy whatsoever. What makes the Japs think they will be more successful.
>>111186908
Are you really that autistic?
Well if they really make a good alternative for a cheap price, without country restriction I wouldn't care (if they also subbed them).
But that's not going to happen so I'll just continue with xdcc.
And what's the prison bullshit. They would have to sue the people in their country, which would be too much work. Also come at me bros, you can't do anything to me as long as I'm in Switzerland.
>>111186967
Yeah, this will surely cut into Daiz's profit margin.
>>111186719
Fucking shills
How about hiring some competent translators, nobody wants to wait 6 months to watch your shit
>>111186908
He was being sarcastic you turboautist
I'd expect them to be able to take down some shitty illegal streaming sites at most, so nothing of value will be lost.
>>111186970
To be fair VN piracy is pretty much dead in Japan
We usually have to wait a year after release to get our hands on it, and that's just for the popular stuff. Because they've arrested all the guys uploading them
>However, by attempting to serve the overseas markets with legal content it will make it easier for foreigners to open their wallets.
Oh yeah, I can't wait to get invested in <insert name here> and then have it get canceled and never find any scanlations. Tokyopop burned me too many times on this, Japanese publishers can fuck off.
>>111186719
Based Japan will stop Daiz.
>>111187005
He has spoken.
>>111186955
This. I'm not opposed to paying for anime and manga, I just dislike having to jump through hoops to pay large amounts for an inferior quality product.
>>111187023
How new are you? 90% of stuff is up the same day. 10% takes 2 weeks.
>2 years in jail
Come get me Japan.
>>111186903
Why do you live in japan if you can't into japanese?
Fuck if this happens I will have to start working.
>>111186945
Right? Do they really think China will give a shit?
I seriously imagine the Chinese representative for their overseas matters using it to wipe his shit because he forgot to stock a new roll of toilet paper.
Japan can't even stop their own piracy issues, how the fuck are they even going to begin to take on the west? This ship has sunk before it even left the dock.
>>111187083
>China
>Toilet Paper
>>111186990
>a good alternative for a cheap price,
But a torrent will always be the superior choice. If I like a show, I'll import some merchandise, maybe buy the manga. I'm not going to pay for each episode of a show, or a subscription fee that goes to middlemen.
>>111186990

>>111187055
Maybe they can round up all the anons in one giant anime/manga themed prison.
>>111187023
As someone who plays a lot ofNTReroge, this is not really accurate. Releases do take a little longer on average nowadays, but the longest I've had to wait for something is a month or so, and even that is pretty rare. Popular/hyped stuff is generally up fairly quick.
>>111187005
Even then it'd be a good idea to expect the worst and backup everything. I, for one am a pessimist.
>>111186719
>We want to create a project so that anime fans overseas can enjoy Japanese content
Fucking stop. The reason anime is worth a shit is because it's not pandering to murricunts. The moment they start doing that, we'll get god awful garbage like Space Dandy and PSG.
>>111186719
This is the 5th thread we've had today, does this really warrant that much attention?
Reminder for all anons that 9 out of 10 times, the people who make a shitstorm about morality and ethics are the same people who don't abide by them and actually do worse things.
This number increases to 10/10 in anti-pirate cases as they have been observed and proven in these past few years of:
a. Drug trafficking (Vytas Simanavicius case)
b. Defamation (Prenda/Malibu)
c. Uploading torrents and copyright material themselves unlawfully (Megaupload case, big stir in the courts a month or so ago).
This leads to hypocrisy.
d. Breaking the 8th Amendment of the USA under the justification of example making.
e. Actual cybercrime of spreading malware and trojans on the Internet (https://torrentfreak.com/30000-pirates-receive-fake-fines-with-trojans-attached-140708)
f. Unwarranted and unlawful incarceration beyond what the law regards as a legal period (Piratebay founder)
g. Bribery, blackmail and perversion of the justice system (Piratebay founder, KimDotFat, Prenda)
h. Wasting more tax-payer money than artists lose to piracy over unlawful use of police forces (KimDotFat case and many more) when the police could be saving actual lives.
So anti-pirates are also potentially indirectly responsible for civilian deaths due to siphoning police reserves.
i. Filing millions of false DMCA notices and taking down many legitimate sites while hurting many businesses in the process. Censorship.
And not to mention that the world of artists is not represented by anti-pirates as over half of it is pro-piracy and independence from labels/distributors/Hollyshit.
Plenty more can be added.
>>111187115
>one giant anime/manga themed prison.
Implying we wouldn't volunteer to go there.
>>111187152
>god awful garbage like Space Dandy and PSG
>>111187074
I could just rent BD's from tsutaya but why would I pay for anime?
Also, I spend more time reading nukiges than watching chinese cartoons
>>111187155
We're completely aware of that, hopefully. People who try to do "good" in the wrong direction by using morality is only putting distance on themselves.
What other choice is there to the west? You can't get it legitimately at the same time as the Japs unless CR decide to pick up it.
It's like when HBO were shocked that GOT was the most pirated show overseas whilst it was still on a week's delay.
People get tired of waiting and risking spoilers.
>>111187187
Well he's right anon.
>>111186719
Sure its inconvenient for me but I really can't blame people and companies from trying to protect their intellectual property. I feel the same way about video game DRM. It's not like I wouldn't do the same thing in their place.
That being said, pirates will find a way. They always do.
>Nips ask nyaa or whoever to take content down
>"No, fuck off"
And that's how this will end.
>>111187100
>I'm not going to pay for each episode of a show
then don't watch it.
>or a subscription fee that goes to middlemen.
do you realise there are "middlemen" involved whenever you purchase any kind of consumer goods? even in Japan there are publishing companies, shops etc. that would qualify as "middlemen"
>>111187153
You know, I could have sworn they already did this a few years ago and nothing happened then either.
>>111186719
>Dont bother with licensing and releasing stuff overseas
>Wonder why so much of your shit gets pirated
It kinda takes talent to miss the point this hard.
>>111187227
The thing is without piracy anime and especially manga would have even less of an international market than it already does. Without access to copyright violated translations and no television access to actually watch a show very few people internationally would be interested in the medium.
They need piracy to expand their market.
>>111187265
They say something like this every other year. The only crackdowns have been inside Japan.
>>111187100
not to mention that its actually now Impossible to do this the "proper" way, as they want it done, because now we have localization and distribution companies actually tampering with and censoring western Blu-ray releases of all things (Haganai Next) so doing it that way is out the fucking window.
Because of the language barrier and the nature of importing, downloading and fansubs is the only proper way for anyone outside of japan to watch anime.
>>111187252
I don't see what the problem this. what they should do is make it flexible to get BD's over here.
That's how you can literally fix things.
>Download episode?
>I really love this series, I want to buy it on Blu-ray
>???
>Profit
Unless people are stupid as shit and they distribute in shitty DVD-like boxes, then yes. it'd be illegal.
Hence "This is a free fansub. not for sale."
Good luck with that Nips, not even Jews from Kikewood can stop piracy.
>>111187286
>>111187290
>Japan in charge of logic
>>111187256
I understand shops taking a cut because they purchase in bulk and store that shit. Publishers take risks.
Online companies devoted to this kind of digital only content distribution have a single cost, bandwidth. Yet they take a much larger proportion than they deserve for their minimal effort. Sure, it's free money for the publishers in Japan who make deals with these distributors, but none of it is really making an impact on the actual media at all. All that matters is BR sales in Japan.
Does the world just want us dead? With the Sad Panda Purge, loli teetering around being banned, and now my Anime at risk. How is anyone suppose to look forward to a future this bleak.
>>111187290
yeah I'm sure they're thrilled about expanding their market into the area of people who never pay for anything. it isn't the 80s anymore, you don't need to pirate anime. manga and visual novels might be more of a grey area because theres so much that will never be licensed.

In one way or another, we've got to suffer some how.
Holywood and the video games industry couldn't stop piracy. It's cute that Japan thinks it can stop piracy with a much smaller industry.
>>111187152
Retard detected
>>111187310
The problem is that they also want to maintain their ridiculous price gouging on domestic BDs. Western releases have to be 6months-1year+ later or else otaku will reverse import them.
>export nothing

>>111187219

>Over-Inflated prices for stuff they sell cheaper in Nippon
>Barely any releases in countries that are not murrica
>Even in Murrica stuff gets publisher months if not years after it aired
>Be baffled why your shit doesn't sell overseas despite having a huge following
Excellent work, Japan!
>>111187390
That makes no fucking sense. couldn't they just make it a fair price on BOTH ends, so that people will buy your shit faster?
>>111187352
If it weren't for piracy I'd have never be interested in the medium beyond Pokemon and DBZ.
>>111187370
Weirdly enough the only industry that managed to get a relatively firm grip on the matter is the western porn industry.
>>111187219
Nope, he's not
>>111187345
>some shitty vanilla manga gets removed from a single site and is a little harder to find
>Nips still pussyfooting around an issue until the cows come home
>a few Chink streaming sites get mean letters through the door
THE WORLD IS ENDING OH GOD.
Seriously, none of this stuff even makes an impact. One thing that would actually fuck up anime right now is CR dying. They sub everything, and every other group has quit. They'd leave a big vacuum and it'd take a while for fansubbing to recover.
>>111187412
>cheaper in Nippon
>cheaper
>>111187390
They sell to collectors. The industry needs the high prices to survive because the market is so small.
>>111187115
That could be a nice anime
>>111187370
Exactly.
>>111186955
>240p for 999 yen
>>111187425
>implying hollywood or whatever is bigger than porn
So what's gonna happen to their doujinshi "industry" now?
>>111186970
I'm not even sure that they think it will work. What you can count on is the Jap gov't to pander for votes.
One day it's anime is for disgusting otaku, the next it's: anime is a sacred national treasure and important part of our cultural heritage that we must protect.
>>111187459
Cromartie high school
Until torrent site/stream sites (barf)/etc start receiving letters from lawyers in their own country they don't really have anything to worry about.
>>111186719
Ah yes, ''Piracy'', we have dismissed that claim.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0Qkyt1wXNlI
>>111187414
No. Only an absolute moron thinks that if they cut their price in half, they'll get twice the business.
The current BR price is perfect for Japan. It's just what the otaku are willing to spend. If you put that shit up for sale cheaper in a different country, they'd reverse import it and you'd lose a huge amount of profit.
If you cut the price in Japan to match the international market, you'd get no more sales, and then you'd go out of business because of the much lower profit margins. 10,000 otaku support the entire industry. Your average salaryman doesn't watch late night anime, and never will.
>>111186908
Let me guess, you're only pretending?
>>111187448
Check the prices for some BDs in Murrica and then the same BD in Nippon.
>>111187414
Otaku buy things as fast as they ever will, might as well keep gouging them for as much as they can.
Why crack down on it? Can't they just make anime legal in a better and cheaper way?
Why can't people use their fucking brain.
>>111187425
>western porn industry
>not horribly failing with fewer movies being produced every year while trying to move into streaming shit people pay for once and then rip for free
Not only is it destroyed by piracy, it's destroyed by amateur shit available free on streaming sites. There won't be an industry in 10 years.
>>111187502
Never fucking start a sentence with "Ah yes."
>>111187537
Why would they use their brains now when they never have before?
>>111187537
Because greed and money.

Stop making sense.
The industry can't into that. The medium can't even into logic.
>>111186719

>>111187547
Not so bad, since amateur movies are better anyway.

>>111187425
>>111187547
>Porn Industry
The porn industry had a problem for years now with it being completely stale. What is killing the Porn Industry is not piracy but failure to adapt to a new business model and the flood of amateur-sites on the net.
Literally no one wants to see the same washed up chick sucking the same dicks if they can just go on the internet and watch porn that some guy doing his hot gf uploaded.
Once torrenting and streaming sites go down, it'll take out a large chunk of the casuals and normalfags from the community. Can only be a good thing.
>>111187611
We just pretend it is this way
>>111187602

>>111187603

No, they really can't. check ANN every once in awhile and you'd see the same report of some guying getting arrested for uploading shit.
Might as well just quit, your industry isn't going shit with sales anyways.
>>111186719

These are dark times /a/....

Is Japan seriously expecting me to pay money for untranslated anime and manga?
>We want to create a project so that anime fans overseas can enjoy Japanese animation
So fucking start doing that first and prove your salt before sending out notices.
>>111188211
>Doesn't like cocks
Get a load of this faggot.
>>111186719
>you know realize that japans greatest cultural exports are tentacle hentai and lolis
Gods chosen
>>111188190
because your popularize the anime/manga/hentai to normalfaggots
>>111188211
Are you seriously implying that /a/ is the pinnacle of quality in discussion?
How fucking new are you? whenever trouble is on the horizon, some anon is bound to make a sexual fantasy of it.
>>111188211
>Shit fantasies
Does that mean fantasies that are shit or fantasies that involve shit?
>>111188152
>>111188195
sluts
>Receive notice from Japan about illegally hosting anime
>Into the trash it goes
>Suck tons of black cock for a 24 episode anime
>It gets worse at episode 16
What now, idiots. This plan wouldn't work.
>>111186719
>implying we the mighty chinese will bow down to inferior men of the east
Eat shit yamato scum
>>111188261
Sometimes you just have to take risks for what you love, godamnit
>>111188041
>implying
when that happens im gonna pirate subbed anime on my own and release it out in the net out of spite
>>111186760
Except official subs are always complete shit because they get paid regardless of how good they are.
>>111188267
Co-Prosperity sphere, man. Chinks were sucking yamato cock 24/7.
>>111188312
but now the tables have turned
>>111188307
I know, right? Official subs are garbage. Commie always has the best subs, though.
>>111186760
Do you watch [HorribleSubs] or [Commie] (or almost any other fansub these days)?
>Nyaa, TT and BBT go down
>XDCC and Private Trackers left
;_; I don't want to wait in queue / get rejected
>>111187153
Considering I expect the only causalities to be Chinese streaming sites, no, not really.
>>111188353
Sounds good. Weed out all the torrent babbies.
Time to rev up those torrents. I've got 1tb free.
>China
welp i guess thats the end of horriblesubs
>>111188353
>getting rejected
>from AB
People still torrent? Wow.
>>111188307
You do realize official subs are basically subbed by the same people who use to fan sub right? It's not like they all of a sudden hired an international translator who worked at Coca Cola and knows 18 languages like the back of his hand.
>>111188409
I know, right? I just use Crunchyroll™! xD
All of these people saying that they'd pay if they had timely access to official subs.
Apparently CR does not count?
If you were to run your own service, what would you do differently from CR to make it count?
>>111188429
>what would you do differently from CR to make it count?
Have encodes that aren't literal eye-cancer.
Have typesetting.
Sub OPs and EDs.
>>111188429
Remove all region locking.
>>111188429
Nothing. All those people saying they would pay are lying. I wouldn't pay.
>>111188376
>Sounds good. Weed out all the torrent babbies.
But I want to watch my anime in peace.
>>111188429
No DRM.
>>111188472
Yeah, this. Let me download. I don't want to fucking watch anime in my internet browser.
>>111188448
>literal
Well, you are literally a cancerous shitposter, so that much is accurate.
>>111188472
So you'd pay for a CR subscription if they removed DRM?
>>111188429
If CR was free and just had preroll ads (with episodes unviewable to people using adblock), I would use it.
>>111188429
If I was paying money, I would want to be able to download the videos in the best quality possible, and I want the library to rival Bakabt's in size.
>>111188429
Fixing this would help. Though I admit the timing between airing and release is a lot better than Western TV streaming.
>there are still people who think mass pirating of media can be stopped
man these guys make me laugh
cut out one head two more will always takes its place as long as theres money to be made
>>111188495
I knew a guy who had a CR subscription and got cancer in his retinas because of the excessive banding.
>>111188554
unfortunately it wasn't Daiz
>>111188549
I don't understand, piracy is free on my end. Who makes money offof pirated material?
>>111188549
This probably would have worked in the 80's.
>>111188566
I thought Daiz did have cancer. Or does he just naturally look like a cancer patient?
>>111188571
the people who sell pirated cds
Its a fucking goldmine trust me
>>111188571
>Who makes money off of pirated material?
>>111188571
The people providing the material. How do you think Kim DotCom became rich? Do you think he allowed MU to continue hosting pirated content out of the kindness of his heart?
>>111188454
>>111188548
This is mostly why I don't have a subscription either (tiny European country) but on the other hand fixing it is pretty much impossible or at least would take a decade and huge opportunity costs.
>>111187502
Based Gaiman tells it like it is.
>>111187548
>"Ah yes."
I believe it's a /v/ meme.
>>111187696
Daiz is just a minion? The guy above him must be the true devil
>>111188591
What? People still do this in fucking 21st century? And it's actually profitable? Jesus Christ.
>>111188591
Who buys pirated CDs though? I've never purchased a single movie, show, anime, song, etc in all my life.
>>111188617
Well, that's interesting.
>>111188634
You mean old man Nyaa?
>>111187602
>its a .gif
You cheeky cunt m8.
>>111188649
>>111188652
yes in 3rd world countries you can actually make $10,000 on a single day
>>111186719
I am already buying your overpriced plastic figures
Isn't that enough Japan?

You can always subscribe to Crunchyroll!
Support the industry, guys.
>>111186719
I guess this is the end guys. This past 8 years was fun. I'm a poorfag so I can't afford anime DVDs.
>>111188429
Reason why CR is shit for me:
>region lock
>the part that says if you don't cancel your membership it will renew automatically
I never trust pages who to the the second.
>>111188686
CR shill, please go
>>111188529
I would if it's identical to downloading from CR rips from HS.
