Sorry for my bad information. Didnt mean to make it sound harder than it was. Like I said, it's been awhile. Usually I just torrent the subbed version, which is very easy. should probably finally get a VPN though. All I've ever tormented is Rider, and while we've always assumed Toei didn't care about that, that's no longer the case

even streaming websites aren't affected at all because the uploaders will just end up going to nyaa instead of whichever sub group's website they went to before. fansubbing in of itself is a bit of a gray area as seen in other communities, but no one that has strictly uploaded toku subs has gotten hit with a C&D yet - and it's hard to see why they ever would. no one in the world has the time to give a shit about individuals who are downloading torrents. bigger people than toei can't, never have, or ever will bother. the absolute worst thing that can happen to you is your ISP hits you with a meager fine. |

that isn't the case, either - statements like this are just fear mongering. the many years of consistent distribution, hosting all of these torrents on their websites, and advertisement for said websites are the issues. think about how many years it's been since the big sub groups started doing this, only to just now get hit with a genuine C&D order. TV-Nihon and OT said themselves that they'll be fine - they literally just stopped for now in order to keep themselves safe. hell, OT even said themselves they'll just upload to nyaa instead. it seems a lot of people here don't use discord or twitter.

yeah, VPNs are an amazing investment in this day and age - if this ordeal doesn't convince people of that then I don't know what will.

Toei has sent TV Nihon a Cease And Desist order to end fan subs recently so no more Torrents for these shows.
I soon expect this to be the case for Ultra and the Sheriff franchises soon as well.

wentwood and “normal behaviour” are, as the Japanese say, like the moon and a snapping turtle.

TV N is trying to verify the letter from what I read on their page but as a fail safe anything held by Toei has been removed from their torrent areas. They footage have the stuff backed up on their hard drives. Anything non Toei owned is still up.

your point? everyone that was already torrenting to begin with has had to make zero changes in regards to consuming toku. I really don't know what you're trying to say I know it's hard, but you should probably try reading the part where all this panned out 5 months ago. this wasn't big news even at the time - people just misunderstood. everyone by now realizes nothing has actually changed if you're an active consumer Last edited by Chasing; 10-14-2021 at 04:40 PM.. |

Y'know, a simple "yeah we've known for a while" would have done...
