Gotta love the Russian attitude towards copywrite/piracy
I remember reading that Russia decriminalized pirating American movies (maybe games too?) in response to the sanctions and such; not sure if that was true, but if so, that’s hilarious
Denuvo has also been eating shit because of a cracker called voices38. They’ve even gone to court to try stop the cracking because they can’t make their software better lmao. All this to say that I hope voices38 is Russian and laughing at these attempts to stop the cracking
Yeah I heard about the Voices38 thing haha it’s awesome
This made me think, I wonder if the second hand market for games in Japan is reasonably priced? I could see piracy not being a really valid option if a used game and a console are just chump change. Unlike here in the west where retro game scalpers want $150 for a fucking ps2.
Well, yeah, you can walk into Beep and get anything for a couple bucks, but this is all fake and people who make easily-translated Japanese tweets at 3 AM in Japan don’t represent the Japanese attitude towards piracy. I’ve downloaded a lot of stuff through Japanese-only piracy programs.
I heard that the attitude of “it’s all available here legally, so why pirate” only applies to the big metropolises, and that once you go outside Kanto or Kansai availability nosedives and people pirate just as much.
The biggest pirates of manga after Indonesians are Japanese people themselves: https://www.asahi.com/sp/ajw/articles/16128783

I think piracy will always be attractive because not wanting to pay for something you intellectually recognise as completely free is rational behavior
Exactly. Like if I could hit a button and make a copy of a car I’d 100% pirate a car too.
As far as I know it is much better over there in that regard, but that’s mostly because the Japanese really takes physical media preservation seriously, which on one side is cool, but on the other they also are extremely anti-piracy which I just don’t get.
French Twitter users are also beefing with Japanese Twitter for whatever reason.
Do I want to know why?
im not on twitter, but from what ive seen its cause some japanese twitter users made racist comments towards black french protesters, and the french more broadly for their use of various anime cosplays during the protests.
this has made me critically support the french in their flame war and this is the single most embarrassing thing ill ever admit on this site
They can’t handle that Picollo showed up
French Government when I pull up in a 1:1 scale Zaku I prototype I built out of soda cans in my garage
You can 3d print a little razor jig that cuts the ends off a can and flattens it into plate metal
Furthermore there are also some racist French posts, but as far as I know Japanese right-wingers started it, it’s incredible that they continue to take L after L every time they try to beef with other countries online lol.
Memory is hazy but I think I saw something on here or true anon that outside of the usa, japan is the second biggest group of twitter users. Embarrassing.
twitter hits different when the character limit is more like a word limit
Same for mandarin
Yep
Keep in mind Japan’s population is only like 1.5x larger than Germany or the UK, yet they somehow have >4x more users than them
Terminally online country or total bot farm. Probably both. Also Poland which have apparently 23 million Twitter users out of 38 million population, i call bullshit.
Japanese neto-uyo have been playing on easy mode arguing with largely conflict-averse Japanese shitlibs on their Galapagos island online. So they have an inflated sense of influence and effectiveness.
Imagine being racist to people for embracing one of your key economic exports 😂
Japan really hasn’t figured out that with the rise of China they are speeding towards irrelevancy. Even in the gaming industry China is now a huge player.
this has made me critically support the french in their flame war and this is the single most embarrassing thing ill ever admit on this site
Spiderman meme of the Japanese and the French accusing each other of being pedos
The most devastating slander ive seen in that flame war so far was something like this
CW: Pedophilia/Suicide
A japanese man planting a tree in which his son will hang himself, which his son’s son will chop down and turn the wood into paper to use for his pedophilic porn mangas
Online translate features are exposing Japan as being utterly filled with far right shitheads who are barely distinguishable in their behaviour from Israelis online
Over time repeated negative interactions have been expanding and it has been reaching a tipping point lately where enough people have had negative interactions or seen highly negative interactions that it is having an impact on opinions of Japan and Japanese people itself.
barely distinguishable in their behaviour from Israelis online
US puppet state with mostly white flag with a primary color symbol on the center 🤔
Good god yes
The fetishization of how “polite” and “insightful” Japanese netizens are by a bunch of people (especially redditors) needs to dieat one point twitter disabled auto-translate for Hebrew, which was hilarious. is it still disabled?
I can’t believe the country that sided with Nazis is filled with reactionary losers
FFXIV’s cross-DC features are deliberately held back because Japanese players absolutely reject the idea that they might ever be grouped with gaijin
what’s the black and white photo
Supposed to be something similar to this
Russians piracymogg Japanese people as revenge for Russo-Japanese war
Speaking of Piracy and why its AWESOME! Here is God Of War 3 Remastered in ultrawide @120fps on PC:
Linky?
Amazing! Thank you!
Comrade Fitgirl Repacks
some loud cohort of japanese users don’t even like game mods
Critical support on that.
NTR?
It’s a genre of hentai that involves cuckoldry.
NTR is short for the Japanese word Netorare (寝取られ), which literally means “to have your partner taken away.” In anime, manga, and fan communities, NTR refers to a story genre where a character’s romantic partner is seduced or stolen by someone else, often leading to jealousy, betrayal, and heartbreak. It is primarily used in adult or mature-themed works.
so it can be cuck stuff but it can also be like cheating, or being forced to watch, but like not in a fun cuck kink way.
National Terrorist Radio
oh the CIA finally renamed its Radio Free X project?
cuckhold porn but for otakus
You got a bunch of answers here but the clearest way to describe it is any relationship interaction where one person loses their partner to another person.
This can be cuckoldry that evolves into the woman liking the bull more. Or it can be where someone causes a partner to cheat.
The general rule is that the couple unit is broken by someone outside of the couple unit. This is often non-consensual but also has alternate variants with consent, sometimes of both partners but also sometimes just one who is being an absolute shit to the other partner.
In western writing almost every love triangle story for example could be describe as eventually ending up as some form of ntr.
It’s some Indian actor or smth idk why the Japanese are so fascinated by him
Iso-kun!
Kyaaaaa~
