Screw Watanabe?? OMG how dare they! SCEW THEM

[GREENgummydrop]

Watanabe Is My Hero...He Has Done Some Of My Favorite Animes. Why Should People Ruin Something He Worked Hard On. People Who Attacked Him Can Go Screw Themselves With Chopsticks

"They crucified him on the internet" Of course they did, it's the Internet. Try to go on /b/ try to get some sympathy, see what you get.

I think that people can't defend illegal download and fansubs or scanlations every person out there that is doing that are scum of the anime fandom because these creators work hard and their put blood and sweat into the stuff they create and they don't get paid much for it and they still do it for the fans and some idiot out there have to steal their work and provide a free service without the creator's blessing and then try to defend it is really just stupid.

I somehow missed this comment. Nah. You're just a moron who doesn't know what theft is.

@vash4me

You're a fucking idiot who doesn't know what a troll is. Just because Dattebayo says they have done it doesn't mean it's true.

[vash4me]

@DrunkSamurai

Most people who know Dattebayo know about their professional services.

If you haven't explored that far on their site...

meh I give this troll a 4/10 - (be more subtle next time)

[DrunkSamurai]

@vash4me

Dattebayo stated it? Then it was probably a troll.

[vash4me]

@DrunkSamurai

Well, this may be just an troll, but Dattebayo *has* done professional work, you've just never seen for whom.

[KingRangerLive]

@DrunkSamurai You are just another worthless fansub apologist.

[DrunkSamurai]

@KingRangerLive

No it's copyright infringement. There is a difference between the two.

[KingRangerLive]

@DrunkSamurai Copyright infringement is stealing. You can justify theft all you want, it doesn't make it right.
