How do you support the anime and manga industry?
By torrenting anime and discussing it on /a/.
I don't.

By pirating everything. I even pirated a light novel earlier.
>>142081953
I buy bandais plastic crap
I don't
I watch anime on crunchyroll
I have a rough estimate of 6000 euro in manga.
No anime though.
Of course, that's only the buying price. If I tried to sell them, I'd probably get some 600 euro.

Buying OSTs on cdjapan.
I don't
I delete the episode one week after watching it, that way I'm not really stealing and they get that negative money back.
Well I don't buy overpriced blurays which is apparently the only way to really support anime production so I guess I do nothing.

I buy all the merch.
I sent vials of my semen to Production IG headquarters.

You can buy merch.
I buy manga that I really enjoy. Fuck those BD prices, though. If they want me to buy BDs, they have to abandon that retarded dealer price and sell them for what they're actually worth.
Ethically, I'm in the clear. I pay for what I like. From a legal standpoint, the publisher relinquishes their copyright the moment that they refuse to enforce it.

I suscribe to based crunchyroll
By buying figs and showing enough interest so that big companies buy their licenses.
RIP Animesols
I pay for crunchyroll even though I rarely ever use it. This way I can torrent all of my anime but still support the industry in some way. Also I buy figures and manga.

By mailing my semen to japan
>>142081953
The West is such a small market that it literally contributes nothing to the industry.

I buy all my raw manga instead of reading scans, and if I really like a show I'll buy some merchandise. Most of the shit I like is old and everything can only be purchased second-hand anyways, so buying raw manga is really the only thing I can buy that directly benefits the publisher and authors.
LMAOing at all these EOP kids that pay for Crunchyshit because they think it supports Japanese studios more than buying a fucking keychain from every new show you enjoy or something, at least they directly profit from that.

>>142081953
I buy official merchandise whenever I can. I also go to cons.
By kidnapping soft-voiced asians and sending to Yakuza to use them as seiyuu to glorious nipponese cartoons.
