They didn’t spend a fortune on licensing for nothing.

Think of the lawsuits.
-Sony probably

The war on anime continues. Its for the greater good. Do the right thing. Support our troops. Just two weeks to flatten the piracy.

My regular stream site started having issues tonight, so this was kind of miraculous timing! Hopefully one of these works!

Piracy and anime are joined at the hip. Even in the 90s before we had streaming, you could walk into any Japanese toy store in New York and guess what you would find? Rows and rows of bootleg anime DVDs. At half the price (or lower) you’d pay and with titles not released in the US. There are so many pirate sites now I hadn’t even heard of the ones in this article.

So after 30+ years of fighting this losing battle why do they think they will win it now?
