.... you know, it's kinda retarded to twitter to a mangaka "I read your manga through borrowed ROMS from a friend LOL" and "I became a fan by watching the first entire season from an overseas video site

Man, I want to say that they were either trolls or just really stupid people...srsly, guys.

Srsly.

just because 'everyone' is doing it doesn't mean it's 'right' orz.... i guess kids these days grew up with piracy so they don't realize it's 'wrong'

I see this situation as that one Naruto episode (during the chuunin exams), where if you were caught cheating, you probably deserved it.

I buy the stuff when I have money available.

In places like my country it's perfectly business-as-usual. ^^;;

[rukawagf]

I agree. Still, I don't have the finances or the access to completely-legit merch. (Which is why I make info websites/shrines to compensate, what little that can do.)

Even though I stopped watching DRRR by ep..7 (was it?) question 4 totally cracked me up! HAHAHAha... thank you for sharing that link!! XD

I guess, it shed a bit of light to me why ppl like this pairing.. but I still see it as quite a dangerous pairing... like mukuro and hibari. I just cant see dangerous pairings as an item. ^^; Too scary. The relationship that is.

And really... that post bout stupid anime fan emailing artist how he/she gets pirated stuff... gotta say--reaaaally stupid. ~.~ /sigh/

Lol! I think I read about that in the Kuroshitsuji LJ few days ago =.= And I totally agree with you! What kind of lousy person do that?! They don't even deserve to call themselves fans! Honestly, I can't help but think it's people like those that make mangaka life so so hard ><

I may not be a hardcore fan, but I do make sure still to purchase actual copies of the manga/DVD when it does become available -.- It's really the most decent thing any fan can do. It's just something small to show that we appreciate the efforts authors put in.
