Sad news : japanese Tokyo Lab company, which is archiving many old animes since 1955, will close in November, and they'll have to destroy all the masters unclaimed by right holders.
WTF? Just release them as public domain, idk.
Because the right holders still have the rights to the intellectual property. These laws are so fucked up. It's like slashing unsold Nike shoes, but instead it's 68 years of art.
Hope they get them preserved.
I'm surprised there isn't a Japanese Library of Congress that would want to get its hands on these.
Buy physical media gang.
Also, pirates are supposedly "criminals" yet their actions improve society more often than not.
Seems like the pirates were right again, curious.
Fuck intellectual property laws.
ai frame upscaling does look very good for solving this problem, though. i recently watched a 1080p tng remaster with it and it was great.

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.
