Welcome to Sushichan!

Original Samachan.org migration discussion thread at >>>/yakuza/776

This board was made to handle some of the discussion topics that were common on Samachan but not so common on Sushichan. Japanese and Otaku culture as well as Anime-related discussions can go in this board, whether you were originally from Samachan or not. In addition, if you are from Samachan and you're not sure if your topic would fit in one of our other boards, you can post it here. If the moderators think it would be a better fit for another part of the site, it might get moved.

Sushichan Guidelines
* Read the rules! Also take a minute to look around.
* All conversations should be comfy and use polite language.
* Less comfy conversations (within reason) can be had in /hell/.
* NSFW content goes in /lewd/. Keep 3D threads in /lewd/ to a minimum.
* Site meta discussion goes in /yakuza/.
* The /culture/ board is mostly for literature and artwork, despite the name.
* Cute stuff goes in /kawaii/, but it is an SFW board.
* The /arcade/ board has been expanded to include all kinds of games, including tabletop.
* Keep most Japan / Otaku / Anime related topics within this board.

Back in the day, it was really difficult to acquire otaku media. This gave rise to countless fan groups of dedicated individuals ready to get into legal trouble, so that others can enjoy anime and games from Japan. Most of these subber and warez groups disappeared over time, as anime blew up outside Japan and became more available. Some of them even transformed into law-abiding publishers, continuing their efforts with less risk and less freedom. Streaming services really brought anime to the masses. Nowadays some series even get released the same or the next day they air in Japan, making the service comparable to bleeding edge fansub groups, that competed among themselves to be the first to drop the next episode of Naruto.

That said, I still prefer piracy over other options. You get the benefits of
- enjoying free stuff
- not feeling bad about getting something, you didn't enjoy
- more often than not superior quality, translation, encoding
- freedom from time and location limits of service providers
- security of owning the data on your hard drive
- feeling good, when finally paying for a series you previously pirated, but enjoyed so much, you wanted to give back
- finding stuff, that is still unavailable through legal purchases
- better compatibility through patches, hacks, jailbreaks (with games)

What is your stance on the matter?

>more often than not superior quality, translation, encoding
quality: Maybe. Even waiting months for the BD rips isn't that much better than high tier web broadcasts now.
encoding: Yes
translation: Big yikes. Outside of exceptions of super popular media that still gets fan redoes, and unpopular media that never gets an official TL to begin with.

It really feels like that era of speedsubs from 07-13(?) pioneered by groups like [gg] were a golden time that we are never going to have again. I don't really mind that though, since I'm not really interested in modern anime and in return a lot of the people who would have fallen into that scene now work on game fan translations which are in their own golden age at the moment.

 No.8384

I miss all the fansub groups, but with less anime I'm interested in coming out, it's mostly just a general regret that fansubbing is pretty dead than anything that affects me much.
It seems like most releases now are either direct rips from official subs or minor edits and I think that's a shame since they're subject to corporate rules that may tone things down a bit to be more PC at the expense of humor. You don't get translator notes anymore and more often than not, the translation is localized, which I've never understood. I'm watching Japanese media, so why do the tls act like I want to avoid honorifics or Japanese names for food and such?

My habit of downloading things payed off when mangadex got hit a few months back. I really hate the way everyone flocks to one major platform like that for their releases instead of having a blog and DDL links. It's convenient but it's also a huge liability and you'd think more people would realize the downsides of centralizing pirated content.

Some of OP's points don't apply to music, but I wish new or smaller vocaloid releases were easier to get. I buy and upload what I can, but I've found only limited options and a lot of less popular stuff just isn't available.

I've got no way of paying for streaming services or dvd's, so piracy has always been my only option

I used to frequent a site called Animeflv when I first started to get interested in anime. Awful but really fond memories come from that site xaxaxaxa

Bad quality uploads, crunchy audio and awful subtitles. It really was charming

I'll probably keep on sailing for the rest of my life, because most content on this side of the world is unavailable to watch on crunchyroll or whatever

What's the etiquette on anime phone wallpapers?

After all, if people would mind their own business, they'd never be looking at your phone to begin with. But it is something you might be bringing out in public areas, so maybe ecchi/guro type content is inappropriate? Or should you avoid anime images altogether so you don't get associated as one of those depraved otaku types?

As long as you don't put anything pervy or waaay too colorful, you'll probably be OK.

Having a wallpaper of Chainsaw Man is not the same as having one from a slice of life show, like for example, K-ON

That said, from personal experience, I've found that people will first look at your physique and demeanor, and then attribute more traits to you, based on your wallpaper. (Without the wallpaper being the focal point but rather, an extension of who they think you are)

I'll give an example

Back when I was in highschool, there was this guy that not a single person in my classroom liked (Me Incluided)

He wasn't BAD or anything; just a very akward person to be around..
He made unfunny jokes, said stupid stuff in the wrong moments, made reaaally weird remarks to the girls of the classroom and also, ranted about his life in a very dramatic and simplistic way whenever he was given the chance to do so
