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?

HorribleSubs was right

[-] flan@hexbear.net 5 points 11 months ago

why is crunchyroll paying for translators in the first place? isnt it the publishers that have to supply the subtitles?

I'm guessing there is a market for them to sub obscure anime that never had subs in the first place

I think Crunchyroll is one of the bigger publishers/localizers at this point.

Why are they paying money for anything at all? Go back to your pirate roots, crunchyroll.

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.
