    Ore ni Trauma wo Ataeta Joshi-tachi ga Chirachira Mitekuru kedo, Zannen desu ga Teokure desu - Vol. 5 Ch. 23.2 - Quiz tournament

    Scapegoating is extremely common in organizations with a thing for 'public image'. Elected or loosely-appointed school officials/boards certainly qualify(around here they don't actually seem to have anything better to do than go after bullying victims for 'fighting', in fact). It's also used to...

    Muchina Kanojo no ◯◯ Nengo… - Ch. 34

    You'd be amazed what someone you're used to sleeping with can do without waking you if you've crashed-out from work or other exhaustion. She just won't register as some sort of emergency or threat you need to wake up from. I've gone to bed and woken up in the car.

    Mangadex gets hit by DMCA - more than 25% of chapters gone | staff FAQ update

    Why would the ones making the claims use strikes against themselves? Those cheap MTL sites that all have the same UI not getting touched have already scraped the bulk of translations they needed, and now can get rid of the non-paywalled place so anyone who notices the sharp drop in translation...

    Correction: They think no one should read them but themselves. A double-standard is invariably at the core of such beliefs. Banning something for everyone else is the only way to transform the guilt or embarrassment one feels for doing a thing, into a feeling of privilege - and the more cruel...

    Mangadex gets hit by DMCA - more than 25% of chapters gone | staff FAQ update

    Even entirely legitimate counterclaims can land you in expensive legal hells. Going to court is very expensive if you don't already have your own legal department. Proving you're innocent when a mass accusation of everything in sight was all it took for everything in sight to be found guilty, is...

    Mangadex gets hit by DMCA - more than 25% of chapters gone | staff FAQ update

    You have to remember two things: It's not so much publishers in the sense of "the ones who printed out your book" nowadays. It's publishers in the sense of "the investment group that owns the holdings corporation that owns the company that owns your publishers". Doesn't matter how bad an action...

    And "we can't let the children see ethnics food" redraws or censoring like the suddenly-burgers in Pokemon.

    Site Update - 14th of May 2025

    That's basically the worst part of all this. I recall how often titles licensed in the early oughts would get licensed, swept away, and then MAYBE we'd see one or two volumes over one or two years and that was the end of it. It was almost as if they'd bought it to squash it.

    Site Update - 14th of May 2025

    I wouldn't be surprised if the "lists" of what a company claims to be theirs were themselves scraped with no verification. They're fully aware that they can outlast any artist when things get dragged to court. Every motion to delay costs the victim significant money.

    Site Update - 14th of May 2025

    I'm reminded of how DMCA takedowns on other sites may not even be legitimate, such as independent artists who put their own stuff on youtube suddenly getting copyright strikes by a label they have had 0 dealings with whatsoever. It was a terribly written law and I can't remember the last time a...

    Corseltel no Ryuujitsushi - Koryuu Monogatari - Ch. 23.5 - Guidebook Bonus Manga

    So Raruka was already locking-on before hatching. Bit of a typo on page 132 ('21'): "we have to live" should probably be "we have to leave".

    Uzaki-chan wa Asobitai! - Ch. 121 - Kouhai and a Disgruntled Man

    Nichiasa Suki no Otaku ga Akuyaku Seito ni Tenseishita Kekka, Hametsu Flag ga Houkaishiteiku Ken ni Tsuite - Ch. 13 - Driven Mad by the Real Villain

    It's possible Yuugo would've become a Red in his own world; several sentai start off as fans of their predecessors (fictional-to-themselves or otherwise) before their own series. But instead of ending up with other super sentai, this other world needed a solution to the 'heroes' all trying to...
