>Piracy of Japanese games and anime has tripled over the past 3 years. Government acknowledges need to expand legitimate global distribution channels
https://archive.ph/hTpqH
<Japan’s METI (Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry) announced the results of its survey on online piracy of Japanese content on January 26. According to the results, damages from piracy in 2025 rose to 5.7 trillion yen (about $36.9 billion USD), which is almost three times higher than the 2 trillion ($12.9 billion USD) in damages recorded in a past survey from 2022. However, as ITMedia News reports, from 2025, new categories like “character merchandise” were also included in the survey, and if we take them into account as well, the overall damages for this year total 10.4 trillion yen (about $67.4 billion USD).
<The survey targeted consumers from Japan, China, Vietnam, France, America and Brazil, and an estimate cost of damage caused by online piracy of Japanese content was calculated based on their responses. The collected data was analyzed across five major categories – film (including anime and

Was gonna post this in the old thread before I saw it hit the bump limit.
I posted about this mole fetish simulator Prince of Persia/Shadow of the Colossus hybrid's demo last year and complained about its movement and lack of graphics settings. The dev later overhauled both of these in a demo patch, much to my surprise, and now that it's out on GOG I'll probably give this thing a whirl and a writeup when I'm done with it.

Update: I made a discovery that massively improves my biggest issue with the game. It's the fucking camera mode setting, of all things.
MotorSlice has three cameras: Floaty (the default), Not Floaty, and Cinematic. Honed by years of playing video games, your instincts will probably tell you that Not Floaty is the best because it sounds less laggy, and that cinematic anything is probably trash. For once you're wrong about the latter, and it's so big an improvement that I can't believe it's not the default.
Both Floaty and Not Floaty feel stiffly anchored around the character, with Not Floaty feeling like a snappier version of Floaty. Cinematic is closer to the kind of camera you'd get in a Fumito Ueda game. It's often a little more pulled back, drifts around a bit as you move, and tends to turn around the character noticeably wide. That sounds terrible, but the crazy thing is that it's actually perfect for a third-person parkour game. The wide, lazy turns it makes help you correct movement slip-ups on the fly, give you a better sense of your location in 3D space when you're mid-air, and seem to make the camera-driven wallrunning/walljumping/vertical walljumping trifecta more reliable.
I'm shocked at how big of a difference it makes. Making the switch flipped me from hating the game's movement to an immediate, completely unexpected flow state. It actually feels good now. It c

Beyond that, archive everything you care about. You never know when /animu/ servers will be vore'd by a giant Miku.

Obviously they want to prove that they are the  first human type life form that could travel into deep space and made an asylum in the moon. Unfortunately it's scintifically not feasable to achive this goal even with the current technology that we have right now.

Look, if Russian could'nt do it, what the flying fuck a mutt could able to accomplish this?

Let alone, go through the radiation belt lol.

I'd heard an interesting story while trying to get into Magical Girl Raising Project. Apparently, when the series was still in the public eye back around 2016-17 or so, it was discovered the guy who was doing translations at the time (PlatFleece I believe his name was) was actually incompetent at Japanese and making shit up as he went along (deleting or adding entire paragraphs for example), and everyone had fallen for it for like a year or so since nobody had bothered to get raws themselves and those that did and called Plat out were damage-controlled by a cocksucker cadre cultivated on Dicksword. The inability to verify until an entire retranslation of all the books up to that point was done played a large factor in the series falling into obscurity among Western circles, or so the story goes.

It was interesting to me because far as I knew at the time, bullshit TL stuff was done either by failed writers in official companies or agenda-driven cucks on Reddit and other such malcontent sites -- it kind of slipped my mind that autists could fuck up efforts for entirely separate reasons, like their own pride. That made me curious: What other examples of translation fuckery have you noticed in fan TL?

When I watch old/finished shows I like to watch two episodes each few days. It feels like a good middle ground between having enough time to think about the episodes while not feeling I watched too little to be satisfied each time. It takes a bit more for me to watch longer shows but I found it fullfilling.
When an anime has an odd number of episodes I also like to watch all last three chapters in the same watching session as as a sort of "big finale".
