>>1985838>industryexplain which 'industry' you want to support. I support Crunchyroll because I support THE TRANSLATORS. I've been watching anime since the 1970s, far longer than most of 4chan has even been alive and I can tell you, anyone who thinks we don't need CR is an idiot. I lived through the 80s where we had to trade badly copied VHS tapes with Doug at the comic book store. I lived through the 90s where we were lucky to find someone with tapes of Evangelion to sell and wondered if Zillion would ever see the light of day (I'm still waiting 20 years later). I lived through the early 2000s where anime finally exploded on American TV and we still had to wonder where to get slice of life or magical girls like Fushigi Mahou Fan Fan Pharmacy and Saint October (yup, still waiting)
You guys think that if it's created in Japan it'll somehow magically get translated and end up in your hands the next day. Let me explain to all you 12 year old preteens without a clue, FANSUBS CANNOT SUPPORT THE TRANSLATING INDUSTRY.
Enjoy having 6 groups all fansubbing popular series X while nobody fansubs the rest all while waiting 6 months to 5 years for a single show to be completed.
You owe Crunchyroll everything even if they never subbed your favorite show because they free up 95% of fansubbers to go after the rest.
And you can all go to hell.
