Welcome to c/anime on Hexbear!
A leftist general anime community for discussion and memes.
Simple rules
Be nice.
Use spoiler tags.
Don't sexualise underage characters, including 1000 year old loli ones.
Don't post hentai here. This is an anime community.
High quality threads you should definitely visit
Gigathread: Good Anime Talks, Presentations, Conventions, Panels, etc
Piracy is good and you should do more of it. Use https://aniwave.to/ and https://4anime.gg/ for streaming, and https://nyaa.si/ for torrents. Piracy is the only means of digital protest that audiences have to fight poor worker treatment.
Is the age of fansubbing gonna return
Anime fans have unironically contributed more to internet video technology than companies like netflix because they are highly technical, extremely obsessed and have a high bar for quality. x264 was anime fans, for example. I don't think AI subs will go over very well if they aren't any good.
Bro, how are they translating without a profit incentive?
