Thanks for the hints. I was deciding if I was going to watch this once I finally catch up on Welcome to Demon School Iruma.

Solar highways as well.
- Comment on Using a NAS to redirect to another NAS for streaming ? 2 months ago:
You are right. I was thinking they provided better login services, but in reality the best they can do is force a port and offload your certs.

I advise strongly against advertising jellyfin directly to the Internet. Maybe through a reverse proxy, but based on the question I have to say no.

Yeah, but in this case it’s less a sword and more a lump of plastic.

Pretty sure I would stop answering the door if Internet celebrities were attempting to use me for attention.

Sorry, I recall some really bad fansubs from back in the day. I can’t say whether the translator actually knew Japanese.
- Comment on Crunchyroll is Officially Ending Its Free Ad-Supported Streaming Service on December 31, 2025 9 months ago:
That is true, you do have a point. A translator should know enough Japanese to handle things.
- Comment on Crunchyroll is Officially Ending Its Free Ad-Supported Streaming Service on December 31, 2025 9 months ago:
You have a point. The translator should know enough Japanese to be able to step in.

Honestly, I’d prefer not to steal. I WANT the anime industry to have something for my appreciation.
To have it simultaneously decrease in quality AND go up in price is a slap in the face.
Anime was made popular by nerds sharing VHS tapes. A friend of a friend of a friend would get some episodes, another friend would add on to it, and it would end up a whole season on one tape that was a copy of a copy of a copy. The first time I saw the correct opening scene of the original Ranma 1/2 I was surprised by how the music didn’t actually warble from being copied. Digital piracy takes away from that because nobody is buying tapes.
Guess I could still buy merch.

Honestly, I have been considering cancelling. The price is going up and the quality is going down. Any 2-bit translator can crank out what they are putting out with raws, screenshots, and voice to text. With the resources they are gleaning, this shit should sparkle.

Thanks. I found this too.

I am half tempted to make a music community here, but I don’t feel that I can give it the attention it needs.
- Comment on How does the community feel about inviting content creators? 1 year ago:
I don’t recall the actual thread, but he was discussing something he knew about and linked one of his videos. The response was shitty and to the point that they don’t have time to watch a video.

It is a musician, so assuming they don’t flood a music community it won’t stick out too much.
- Comment on How does the community feel about inviting content creators? 1 year ago:
The musician creates music. Dysmn is the name they go by.
- Comment on How does the community feel about inviting content creators? 1 year ago:
I think they would be welcomed here. Heavy murder moe vibes.

That is a realistic measuring stick. While an Avatar (or whatever) community wouldn’t belong, content fitting a theme might be allowed. Honestly, unless someone was spamming content, I don’t see an issue with it.
- Comment on Policy Updates and Feedback (+ a few other things) 1 year ago:
It’s hard to pin down what anime and moe is 100%, but we pretty much know what you mean. We use anime and Japanese otaku culture to mean what we are saying, but Chinese games and manwah fit too.
What about Western media with anime influence?
Avatar could fit, and RWBY was on Crunchyroll. Madhouse notably has done some Western work.
I think there should be a fair amount of wiggle room because of this gray area. Cartoon network may not fit, but Toonami might.

I have blocked most of that
