OppaiSugoi said: More people should cancel their MAL supporter role to get DeNA to wake up. (why people pay for a free service is beyond me, they already get ur ad revenue.) More of a thing to give extra support and get something small back. Ad revenue isn't enough they say. Can't say I disagree with your first sentence though. If I paid for my supporter I would've cancelled it the minute I could after the fiasco |

(o_O) I've recently been looking at the features on MAL and trying to implement an API based on that - threads, users. articles, anime, manga, characters, people, forums, subforums e.t.c Just for fun and experimenting to see how hard it would be to work on the API. |

I think your only hope would be convincing MAL folks to have their old API back online. If miraculously, someone started working on the API today, they would probably not release it until maybe Feb, March, April next year. |

Wait, wait, wait... So what about old shows or unlicensed shows? Why remove the fansub group listing for those? Why even bother listing those shows at all if they aren't available legally? It's just a whole host of nonsense double standards. |

Fansubs section removal is a big loss. I can't stand liberal/localization subs which don't even qualify to be called a translation. Used that feature to quickly get feedback about quality of subs, will have to look for some other site now I guess. |

awesomenettle said: That's not exactly the point. The main idea is just to make a point to support the anime industry not to make a silly resolution to stay away from bootleg and torrent sites. Also, for those who care, my English is not exactly broken, it's more or less a way of being cool. You completely missed the sarcasm of that post. People are not going to legally watch anime just because MAL removes a fansub section. awesomenettle said: We want API more and we can even fix it for ourselves. Some of us are not well up enough to be joining MAL supporter program, we don't exactly care about fansubs but we can fix API for ourselves Fansub section existed before API did. |

This is probably redundant; I haven't read all seven pages, but I assume most thread visitors haven't either, so I'll dump it into the thought-soup: Old School Anime Club said: Echelon | Sep 21, 7:39 PM MAL removed the fansubs data from pages. Very annoying for us old school fans, that was always a good reference and easy way to tell what even has subs or doesn't. Guess we'll have to stick to anidb again for more facts... Klonoa7H | Sep 21, 8:31 PM I find that rather dumb, because fansubs still have a place in anime fandom, especially for niche or old school stuff. Dokonjo Gaeru, Granzort, Gamba no Bouken, Hidamari no Ki, Yume no Crayon Oukoku, Bosco Adventure, Dr Slump and Chibi Maruko-chan are all currently being subbed, and I don't see any of them being picked up by the big distributers anytime soon. nDroae | Sep 21, 9:56 PM Meanwhile list entries still have "Storage" feature where you can select "Hard Drive," "External HD," etc. To be fair, sometimes obscure old shows do get unexpected licensed releases: https://www.crunchyroll.com/anime-news/2018/08/13-1/discotek-announces-licenses-for-basically-everything-at-otakon https://www.animenewsnetwork.com/news/2018-07-05/maiden-japan-licenses-maria-watches-over-us-hataraki-man-basquash-yumeiro-patissiere-votoms-ideon-xabungle-human-crossing-anime/.133826 However, that's a tiny drop in the ocean that is old anime. Perhaps it could have been set up so that any anime with a licensor listed (other than dead ones like Geneon) would automatically have its fansubs hidden, but I suppose that would have taken a lot more work than simply removing them all, and licensor listings are incomplete. Easier and safer to just delete them all. My first thought (there may not actually be any connection) was that removing fansub info is not a surprising change, considering that DeNA is a Japanese company. I once had a conversation with a Funimation representative who confirmed that in some cases, Japanese publishers would provide their own officially sanctioned subtitles, and wouldn't even allow licensing companies to write their own translations. I assume that's very rare, but the fact that it's happened at all would seem to suggest a controlling attitude from Japan: "You'll see it exactly the way we want, or not at all." Which is frustrating when I wish that someday, services like CR could simply let users load and watch their own fanmade subtitle file in sync with the official stream. Oh, but the words themselves are intellectual property! We can't have people freely distributing our sacred text, even without the video/audio part! |

I think I might not have put myself across accurately. The point is, I don't understand why lots of MAL users are obsessed with fansubs. Yes, fansubs are an important part of anime industry but that cannot explain the obsession among anime fans. I doubt many Facebook users are obsessed or even like Mark Zuckerburg, lots and lots of people like and use Google(and Google products) every day Google but no-one really cares so much about the history of Google e.t.c., lots of people really like their Apple products but not so many care so much about what happens at Apple, it's history - now, those are just a few examples. The fact that lots of forums users around here seem to worship fansubs, though... |

How is my being an anime fan or not relevant to the above comments? Well, I asked because older anime fans would understand the importance and role of fansubs. Yes, anime is easily available nowadays, but fansubs were the only way to watch many shows as they came out. In fact, they still play an important, albeit diminished role. For older shows that don't have official licenses, for shows that have horrible official translations, fansubs fill that gap. As a database, MAL provides a way to search for those older releases or alternatives. |

It's quite sensible, actually. You could watch anime and enjoy it without being a fan. Its quite possible that there is are songs/music/books/movies that you really like but you're not a fan of the artist, themself. |

The thing is, it's more convenient to have everything in one location. |

im quite late with the news, lucky there's another site providing info about the fansub but mostly it is regrettable that MAL have to remove the fansub section old/known-less anime gonna be a bit hard to find now im a part of fansub too a few years ago, seeing how the anime world moving with their simulcast or anti-piracy stuff is a bit tore in my heart. the good thing is almost all anime in season can be watched now since CR doing them for you guys who new in the anime world, you may not know how important the fansub role are. but us who watched since god knows when, fansub are like godsend to the anime community back then especially the english one FANSUB = TL with PASSION CR = TL with MONEY pick your poison then |

You should probably have a suggestion like MAL even doing something for fansubs other than just having a random section(I honestly had never seen the fansubs section) and so I even don't know whether it existed.

Why even bother listing those shows at all if they aren't available legally? It's just a whole host of nonsense double standards. well, I really don't see why fansubs are -such- a huge part of this thread while they barely affect/interfere with the welfare of MAL users. I think I might not have put myself across accurately. The point is, I don't understand why lots of MAL users are obsessed with fansubs. Yes, fansubs are an important part of anime industry but that cannot explain the obsession among anime fans. I doubt many Facebook users are obsessed or even like Mark Zuckerburg, lots and lots of people like and use Google(and Google products) every day Google but no-one really cares so much about the history of Google e.t.c., lots of people really like their Apple products but not so many care so much about what happens at Apple, it's history - now, those are just a few examples. The fact that lots of forums users around here seem to worship fansubs, though... Thanks for giving me cancer with this post. Those are some shit analogies. Fansubs are not companies, nor do they sell products. Fansubs were generally more accurate than official translations. Especially when something was dubbed since dubs have to change meanings to match mouth flaps. Even the current actual fansub groups were more accurate than Crunchyroll. Too bad Horriblesubs ruined everything by just ripping CR. Just let it go, incorrect translations is not a topic that someone who has barely watched anime for a year can understand. |

Anyway, I'm putting this here. Maybe it will be useful for someone. On the subject of incorrect translation: do they still occur that often ? They are the reason why I don't watch anime subbed in my mother tongue and I'm probably not proficient enough in English to see all of them, but I had the feeling that they were relatively uncommon. PS: Message for everyone: you shouldn't feed the troll. |

I don't think so or at least this is the most relevant I could make it. Here is the thread just in case you're reading the wrong thread https://myanimelist.net/forum/?topicid=1744695 |

Can you guys please, fix the goddamn APIs so I can start using MAL again. It's been half a year already and what? The most important thing that keeps me using MAL still isn't fixed. |

Never even realized that a Fansubs section exists so I have 0 problems with this. To me the only thing the site's doing so far is potentionally improving which I'm happy about. |

It's quite probable that fansubs did not exist and the said MAL API didn't exist, either. |

Dunno, removing something I never used and improving upon things related to what I use seems like an improvement to me. |
