These guys folded like wet paper towel. Zero resistance, they just gave up the second some goofy publisher from occupied Korea got mad at them. Currently using a third party addon list.
I don't blame them tbh. The legal system is broken and even someone with a weak claim can bury you in paper and costs that you'll never recover even if you win.
Figured it was gunna' be Viz or someone with some mainstream western presence, not some Korean publisher. Stupid.
Viz is smart enough to know that people still buy merch even if they don't buy the books

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.
