It’s just scientific fact that they love being slaves to corporations unlike us, the proudly independent and individualistic Westerners

Yes that was a cringe comment so who knows if the story is true.
But regarding the point over piracy it is not entire impossible, you know Japan is one of the places where they will criminaly persecute people for piracy and I totaly understand, specialy if you’re not particularly tech savvy, someone become paranoid over being put into some random criminal “investigation” for watching pirated shit on Discord.
The part about “Japanese culture” aside, the discord story is plausible to me as pathetic as it sounds.
Yeah, Japan’s copyright laws fucking suck ass and I can’t blame anyone living there for sweating about getting caught in their sham of a criminal justice system
I’ve had so many weebs try to tell me that Japan doesn’t give a shit about copyright laws based solely on the way the names of certain stands from JoJo’s bizarre adventure had to be localized in the west lol.
I think it stems more from how a lot of companies turn a bit of a blind eye towards fan creations when in reality it’d just be far more damage to their public image going after stuff for close to no actual gain. Though from rumors I’ve heard the Yakuza connected with horse racing were making threats towards people that drew the girls from Uma Musume naked which is kinda funny TBH.
Yakuza
is hilarious.
