I'm seeing a lot of disinformation, so here's the deal for you newfags who make up 90% of this board.
1. It was Crunchyroll who killed fansubs. Crunchyroll started as a pirate site with a paywall and all of their episodes were taken from fansub groups. CR made a fuckton of money before going legit. When CR went legit, they started hiring the best people from the fansub scene. 2. Fansubs were shit and the drama was pathetic. Anyone claiming otherwise is a newfag who is desperately trying to fit in. 3. HorribleSubs was initially made to annoy CR because of CR's past. Anyone who hates HorribleSubs is an imbecile. 4. The actual owners of HS stopped managing HS many years ago. The retard "Dao" took over and he has tried to milk as much attention as possible from HS (why do you think he's shilling his Discord server HMMMM?).
>you can't discuss the state of anime distribution on Zig Forums sad

Gook-loving trannies ruin everything once more.

You guys have been shitting on it for years but streaming pirate sites might be the go-to option for finding shows when there's no seeds on a torrent.

>2. Fansubs were shit and the drama was pathetic. Anyone claiming otherwise is a newfag who is desperately trying to fit in. More like fansubs had higher highs and way lower lows. You needed some basic knowledge of the scene to pick the right releases. Funi, CR, etc. is mostly acceptable but never great. Also the "drama" was fucking nothing. Scanlation is the true turboautism full of literal psychopaths.
Brandon Walker
Ok who is getting a CR subscription and copying the subs by hand?
Chase Carter
any evidence that that's actually been true, ever?
Kayden Torres
Where do you think streaming pirate sites get their shit from?
Blake Wright
Something something bot caught the coof yadda yadda et cetera.
/spoiler Head tranny just doesn't want to pay the hosting costs and he's getting enough attention at discord anyway.
Lincoln Walker
How much would it cost to run a service similar to HS? Aka storage and required bandwidth.
the mods don't give a shit about Zig Forums, they have some shonentranny as their head mod for the board
not long ago they were removing SW threads
Sebastian Ortiz
these kinds of threads attract retarded newfags who just want to baitpost because "MUH HAPPENING", see
Charles Green
>Scanlation is the true turboautism full of literal psychopaths. That's because there's no real alternative. Imagine anime was like that, all the time.
Kayden Young
Since this is going to be the fast thread, can someone tell me what happened to samachan?
Brandon Hall
>Aka storage Absolutely fucking none because you're storing fucking magnet links. Bandwith? I don't know, enough to not crash whenever new episode of popular shit is out.
Gavin Cruz
>AB membership >Nico subscription >Erai/raws until replacement groups inevitably pop up Imagine being dependent on cartel rips at this point.
Ayden Ramirez
There is now though. I've noticed SHUHEISHA has a lot of popular series for free now. It's too bad manga is way bigger than anime so we'll never be free of scanlation group autism.
Elijah Murphy
or you can just become a rawchad
bypass schizo drama and politically motivated western localizators! all it takes is about 10 000 hours of your free time
Jason Fisher
If you stick to torrent only releases you could get away with minimal storage. You'll need a decent amount of bandwidth to do the initial seeding of every episode.
