Anime is steadily declining and has been for more than the past decade based on the amount of millions of yen the industry is reporting having sold for

Unfortunate, but not unexpected. I dropped my CR sub when it became apparent people still loving love their region locks in tyool 2015 and my favourite region unlocker thing went behind a paywall at about the same time. I want to pay for anime, not for some third party shady unlocker. They're losing tons of sales overseas like that.

When I can pay a sub and watch any anime like I could if I was in Japan and turn on a telly, I'll pay for it again. Until then :filez: provides a far far superior experience: I have firefox set up so clicking a torrent/magnet or a stream site link streams poo poo directly to my video player. It's exactly as legal as region bypassing where I live, i.e.: "do anything you want as long as it's for private use".

It's really annoying too, I loved how bookmarks in CR remember what episode and where in the episode I stopped watching a show, and how I could turn off subs (I watch unsubbed, 3rd party streaming sites don't support that most of the time), until they took 80% of the shows I was actively watching away from me because I live on the wrong side of an imaginary border drawn on a map. I still watch the shows I can there now, but I'm not paying a sub to watch 1 20 minute show per season.

You still need to convert files from torrents so your media device can play it. I just watch shows on my PC so I don't need to deal w/file formats (RIP N7).

If you're not running Plex you could also try VLC Streamer, at least for the iOS side of things. It's what I use for my iPad to transcode things.

After doing a short glance around the internet at least there's TV Raws for the entire series so if someone ever felt like subbing it they could. But yeah probably not gonna happen anytime soon. Full manga got released by TokyoPop at least.

Good (and also kinda bad since now we have to wait) news. Kaguya got officially licensed by Viz which also means the current group dropped it.

Probably Viz has been doing decent lately. Though we'll probably be waiting until mid 2019 for them to catch up.

Every day when checking batoto I silently pray that someone has started translating the four volumes of her ongoing series Yukibana no Tora, but there is no justice in this world.

If there was justice in this world, the Yuyushiki translation would be a lot closer to volume 9 that's scheduled to hit amazon.co.jp on 26/8-2017.

On the upside, this is soon:

Unfortunately, I don't know anyone going to Comiket this year.

It makes me really happy that Namaikizakari is settling into a Yuki-at-college plot and seems to have quite a bit more ground to cover with Naruse growing into his captain role and them handling a relationship where they aren't seeing each other at school every day. I may be tired of it by the time Naruse graduates but tbh I hope it just keeps rolling past high school for him too.

I've never gotten a redirect on mangago but apparently it's worse for people without an account. If you read there regularly you might as well make one tbh, it's nice having a way to keep track of stuff that isn't "open 8 million browser tabs"

e: although I'm not reading the horny hetero manga so that might be the difference

Every time you go to a new page the display url is a different celebrity clickbait article so with the right porn + headline combo this could be comedy gold.
