    Piracy is the best thing that happened to anime. Without it, anime and Japan wouldn’t be nearly as popular.

    They’re shooting themselves on the foot. People discover anime and manga through piracy, and then if they love it, they end up spending money on it.

    Just look at Berserk. I bet 90% of people who spent money on the mangas and all the deluxe editions discovered it through “illegal” means.

      In South and Central America Goku is probably the second most recognizable male icon next to Jesus. Piracy includes bootleggers so you have to wonder if any of that is possible without piracy.
