Eh, $32.99 is still cheaper than the $60 limited edition manga set.

I think I'll settle with 720p. I don't find the series benefiting from 1080 that much.

For those who are confused on whats legal and illegal, anything that has a dub or will soon have a dub is illegal. Anything that has been released recently in japan (within one year) is okay to download.

If you're downloading it w/o paying for it thats 1000% illegal obviously, unless its from some sort of promotion in which case it wouldn't be a torrent anyways. Seems like that would be common sense.

Well, the way it seems with the loopholes, is that Fansubs are legal unless the animation got licensed. (Funmation being an example)

1. Downloading English dub or licensed anime.
2. Selling or using for profit without license.
3. Claiming it as your own work.

If your download is not classified under either of those you are good to go.

If you want to get technical, it's still not blatantly illegal. It is only illegal if the company decides to file a complaint. The whole anime industry is based on the fan database and the world wide distribution which Japan is aware of. Otherwise anime would be10% as strong of today's. Also the fair use clause makes it ambiguous as to whether it is illegal or not.

In simple terms for your dumb ass, it's illegal if the company deems it illegal. There is no law specifically stating fansubbing and related activities is unlawful.
If you want proof, many large anime sites that have downloads have been contacted to remove licensed material, ONLY LICENSED.

Now sit down and shut the fuck up. Don't pretend to know shit when you don't.

If I did then you brought it on yourself, and I have no interest in your views on me.
