If only these groups spent all that money in underserved areas and paying artists. Classically, they’ll instead go after the people filling their own service gaps.
They don’t care about the artists lol it’s about the distributors losing potential revenue.
Fuck them.
They take ages to localize Mangas, even famous ones like Jojo. If it wasn’t for the community, Manga and Anime would have just a small fraction of attention it has today

That’s adorable. Video you can maybe fight. Megabytes of JPGs? It is to laugh.
They tried it with Tachiyomi.
Reader apps and programs are infinitely harder to recover from the just sending a lawyer to mangadex.Anyway, they tried taking down Tachiyomi.
They bullied the maintainer successfully and the Tachiyomi team first removed the in-built functionaility for the sources then seized development on the app as a whole.
Due to Tachiyomi being FOSS (thanks again to all the devs) one of the primary maintainers forked and renamed the project :)
And now we are back to square one with Mihon :)Next thing you know, they’ll move to a proprietary format that only opens in their exclusive apps.
Are they going to stop printing it too? Scanlations is still a thing 😅
piracy is a service problem~
also of note, they never account for the fact that piracy increases sales in some aspects, without piracy - anime = small. buying physical books when they come on sale for a series you read online? yes, I have a nice collection. Merch, and so forth.
Hollywood producers out there making enemies wherever they can
Hope they all get retaliation hacks with ransom ware that doesn’t work properly and keeps the data encrypted even after payment.
I’m still wondering when these execs and lawyers will start getting tarred and feathered for being clowns
I mean the lawyers just do their jobs, but the executives deserve it.
And they signed up for those jobs
I mean lawyers often work for big ass companies that are basically contractors themselves, so they usually signed up for a job.
There is a war on piracy in Japan? Huh. Guess the fact i haven’t even noticed speaks to how well it’s going.
Japan can’t win the fight against piracy.
Nobody can. Its like the war on drugs, wich drugs won by all means.
Yep…and with Konosuba getting leaked this will put that shit into overdrive
Good luck at that! Says he, while knowing full well there’s at least 5 tabs open right now on his tablet to websites hosting manga to read online
