Before there was vibecoding, you had to travel to a bar in Tokyo and find a man named “Mr. JavaScript” to build your side project for you

@nanasamib Then people wonder why people hate large companies lmao

海外アニメ、マンガファンたちの海賊版を巡る議論をみた。 ぼくのアニメーター1年目の年収はこちら。

@sid0rex Holy shit

この動画は日本の友人たちを驚かせるためのものです。

@sakuhanight @NCyotee Most of nodes were from japan and with av and jpop. It was super popular for that reason Even googling it now you have screenshots with doujins and avs and music from japan nodes

@Countto42 @NCyotee それは海賊版のために作られたわけではなく、その機能を有していたから普及したんだ。少なくとも、流通の問題のために作られたわけではなかったはずだ。 日本で問題になるまでは雑誌に使い方が乗るくらい人気だったよ。 そして、当時の日本人は著作権なんて考えてなかったよ笑

Is this true? Did Japan really pirate their own media because of distribution problems? It's all of this just silly?

@motojima5555 Holy shit is it racing itasha? Awesome

本日からスーパー耐久鈴鹿戦。 カラーリングが大きく変わりました！

@taisho__ Perfect dark! Also I remember getting my hands on niko niko account back in 10s and it was full of pirated stuff

日本人でも普通の人はただで著作権侵害が安全にできるなら金なんか払わないよ。漫画村とかウィニーとか忘れちゃったのかな。

@Mashiro_yuh I mean, doujin authors steal settings and characters from original authors so it's weird to appeal from their standpoint If you don't have your own ideas just go do something that you are good at

外国人に限らないけど、殆どの消費者って「創作物の作者って物凄く金持ち」だと思ってることに気が付いた そりゃあらゆるクリエイターが鳥山明なわけがない 「数百円の海賊版くらいでガタガタ言うな」ってのはあらゆる作者が月に1000万円くらい稼いでるとおもってるんだね。 そんなわけないじゃん。かつてはヒット作があったけど今じゃ家賃もカツカツな「大作家」なんて幾らでもいる。 ましてやこれが同人作家ともなれば兼業が大半だよ。 中規模ヒットくらいじゃサラリーマンの年収とどっこいじゃないのかな。 それを海賊版買いまくって「どうせ作者は大金持ちなんだからオレらが数百円節約したってどうってことないだろ」と思ってるんだとしたらその思考ギャップはそりゃ埋まらないだろうな。

@azusa_maxima Yeah, like Japanese otakus made perfect dark (glorious piece of software, respect, was popular in my part of Russian internet too) to then pirate stuff and dodge laws lmao

欲しいものが手に入らなかった時日本のオタクが何をしたかわかるか？ 自　分　で　作　る　ん　だ　よ

@mangaandwebtoon @autopilotgod Youd have to close all book offs first so people dont profit from author while author gets 0 money Especially since nowdays book offs consist of 90% tachiyomi visitors and 10% tourists who buy stuff

@autopilotgod 結局、海賊版を無料で見ようとするから嫌悪されるんだよ。 海賊版にも著作者に寄付する仕組みを入れたらいいんじゃないの。なんで無料で読もうとする？

**TL;DR:** Cute joke, but it's a lie. I'm not trying to pick any fights nor anything, but it needs to be clarified this misconception that westerns don't want to pay for anime, manga or games. This is a complete mistake and we have history already to show this. 1. **Torrent usage** (the main tool for traditional piracy) is at historic lows as a share of internet traffic. 2. People avoid piracy because illegal sites are full of risky ads and poor experiences. 3. **Steam** has seen massive sales growth — reaching record revenue in 2025. 4. Unlicensed software usage continues to drop. Even with more internet users than ever, overall piracy site visits fell 5.7% in 2024 (to 216 billion). Good services like **Steam**, **Netflix**, and **Spotify** have greatly reduced piracy in their fields by offering convenient, affordable access. Manga is a clear exception. Legal options are still limited and often disappointing: - **Manga Plus** is growing but feels incomplete for many readers. - **K-Manga** faces complaints about translation quality and heavy censorship. So far we don't have a good enough quality for easy access and good pricing for the general public. This is why publishing piracy (driven mostly by manga, manhwa, and manhua) rose 4.3% in 2024 — while most other categories declined. Direct anti-piracy crackdowns by big companies have had limited global impact. The strongest evidence shows that **better legal services** are what actually reduce piracy. **Bottom line:** Yes, people want to pay for the services. No, if we have good services, the majority wont keep using piracy, it happened with movies and series, happened with anime and happened with games. Good Service lowers piracy more than any other action we saw in internet history so far. Below there are some other studies, but I didnt get too many of them because I assumed most people wouldnt read. They are not irrefutable evidence that Piracy is dying, but its many more studies showing a trend on what is actually working against piracy, which is good services and easier ways to purchase legal content. Now there are not many other studies saying otherwise. By the way, about your joke meme, if you want to mock westerns, don't put Japan into the "Wojack" position (that character you put the japanese flag), because this makes you look like you are mocking Japanese people yourselves.....

@TairaNoKinmori @kyuusyuha_001 This is first time i saw someone dumb enough to paint himself as npc wojak lmao Also lies on wojak side (which is reasonable, wojak is expected to brainless bot)

外国人の海賊版擁護を見て「ここまで遵法精神を持ち合わせていないのか」と驚愕してる

@NotYourRock @cryptoshilo9ma @fortayee I dont mind though. Its more about offering a perspective — not arguing. I dont pirate stuff — im avid supporter of physical media, — but i always make point to buy SE stuff used. Recently their premier titles drop like 60% in two weeks leaving me more money for books and MTG lol

@Countto42 @cryptoshilo9ma @fortayee you are replying to an account called "cryptoshill". he would defend squenix taking aways his house because they promoted nfts

I’ve seen some Japanese people saying Americans are pro piracy bc we have evil companies like EA. This cracks me up bc we’re talking about square fucking enix lol

@sakuhanight @NCyotee Didn’t Japanese invent the whole legendary perfect dark and ran around 50k nodes? That software was super popular in Russia lol

@NCyotee 正確ではありません。日本人にそのようなイデオロギーはありませんでした。そこにあるのは、まだ違法ではなかったという事実だけで、彼らはおもちゃのように扱っていました。結果として違法になり、根絶されました。 これについて記事を書いたので、よければ読んでみて。 x.com/sakuhanight/st…

@tgon999 @neetori_ch To give a rundown: Very strong opener with 遺骨収集団 story and super vivid scenes of pre-war slice of life with tragic evacuation ending. Super deep dive on group that wanted to return but was blocked by government. Nice mix of history and societal research

@tgon999 @neetori_ch Oh wow, publishers liked this post! Keep up the good work, I’ll get to Landing on Iwo Jima later! But yes, I recommend this one a lot. For me it’s unseen — and very warm — perspective on Iwo Jima and life on it. Give it a try (feels weird to recommend Japanese books to Japanese)

> is a dead live service free to play game > the dev has no plans for bringing it back offline version > fans made a private server available > somehow it make the samurai's blood boils ? huh..?

@tgon999 @neetori_ch Decent recent japanese reads I’ve had lately are those two

@tgon999 @neetori_ch Regarding Dazai — I’ve read only 人間失格。 it’s nice point of view on small man problem together with decent societal problems explorations, but in same genre I’d go for Natsume’s 心 which is better attempt at slice of life of helpless man

@tgon999 @neetori_ch share.google/Axp47RB6cbGUqU… 三島由紀夫の墓 Truly why would people make graves into popular spots Also damn getting so worked up after first hit in google on “popular graves to visit in Japan” lmao

@Countto42 @neetori_ch あいつの汚らしい所は自分にはこんな傷があるのですなんて言いながら生傷を嫌に痛く、自信を惨めに見せることが上手いだけの我が身可愛いクソったれだ。 やっている事はずっと同じ場所をぐるぐるぐるぐると回っているだけ、それが人間らしいなどと片腹痛い

@IT_unhinged Motherfucker spent the last 20 minutes doing a Yugioh combo to assemble all 5 pieces of Exodia and banish that file to the shadow realm, what was he expecting? And what are the chances the file was something stupid like a dick pic?
