Good to see this website working again.

This past weekend, Rekieta flew down to Texas and hung out with a few of his friends at a bar. Guess which one of those friends stopped by to say hello?

I can just see the paranoia now and accusations building up (even more so now) against Eric. How long til this is used to call him a racist insider that spread lies about funi?

I feel like this needs to be addressed: Chris Niosi was not accused of what Vic was accused of at all. Niosi was accused of being emotionally abusive to people in his personal life for which he openly admitted to and apologized for. In one of those apologies he broke a non-disclosure agreement (NDA) which resulted in him getting recast as Byleth in the Fire Emblem games.

Vic was accused of being a pedophile and a sexual predator something that has blatantly been proved to be untrue, which is why he sued Funimation and his former co-workers because he was defamed.

The people who use this strawman argument of apologizing have no actual understanding of what really happened to Vic nor do they care.

It helps when your ideologies align a certain way as well, then you can get away with all the degeneracy you want which I assume chris aligns a certain way.

I've seen this Shonen Otaku tweeting about how bad Chris Niosi is

"Also also there are many accounts of Vic going after underaged girls. Niosi NEVER did that by any accounts. Just by THAT, Vic is worse by itself."

There is so much here I don't even know where to begin.

Not surprising, the moment I tell these cockroaches my story, how I was really harassed and had a toxic relationship that could have gotten way worse, they pull some bullshit out of their asses along the lines of "Everyone has had issues, yours isn't worse." You know… One of the usual go to comments that they will come up with to dismiss people if it doesn't fit their agenda.
Unfortunately I don't have screenshots from back then, or any pictures of my phone from back then, it was just a flip phone. No way of taking screenshots. Also this was back in the day of yahoo instant messaging and AOL instant messaging. Long story short, I got involved with a guy, fell in love with him, thought I was going to marry him… I got to the point to where I was comfortable enough to send photos to him, those type of photos…
Well apparently he liked them to a woman named Kendra who then told me that he told her that my body was disgusting to him… Right after I gained the confidence to send such pictures to a man who I thought I could trust. And trust me, I'm not quick to trust just anyone. And the fact that these idiots didn't take me seriously just proves they don't care about real victims. They only care about fake ones who will make up shit to push an agenda.
Oh also, he also made up bullshit, could never come up with a photo of himself, claimed he was in the military… Don't know if that was true but I got some pictures out of him but never a face photo. Said his name was John Sanderson and that he lived in South Carolina. The last I heard from him he claimed he moved to Canada and got married and had some kids… Highly fucking doubt that. This piece of shit also used multiple throwing numbers to spam call my phone.
He's the reason I ended up changing my cell number. I ended up fucking around with him because he did all sorts of shit to me that I decided to turn the tables until I decided I had enough ... and with the end of Yahoo Instant Messenger came the end of him. I don't know where the fuck he is or who he really even is but I don't give a damn anymore. I never did find any info on who he really was. although I can provide his old Yahoo Instant Messenger username. naruto_uzumaki_100. Yep, that's it. Embarrassingly enough. And yes the The lower case letters are intentional.

To prove that these people don't care about victims. Also I was also kind of hoping that some other people might be able to help me figure out who the fuck that dude was. I'm just kind of curious is all, but yes it did get a bit too much. I deleted it, would it help if I just did a TLDR? People here are very good about finding out info about people that's why I'm asking.

I see but the rules of the farms is they're not a personal attack force.
That's how ArmzGurl became a laughing stock when she tried the same thing for her change the channel mess.

I wasn't exactly encouraging anyone to attack him, I'm just curious about any info that's possibly out there at all. I don't want a confrontation with him, because after he spammed my old flip phone with throwaway numbers like that, I don't want the situation to get even more messy by people poking the hornet nest. As we all know, we can't exactly trust people to not harass anyone. They'll say they won't but you shouldn't take them for their word unless you know for sure. Another reason I felt safe telling my story there is, even on Facebook groups dedicated to listening to people who need to vent about something such as abuse or whatever… you can't tell your story because if it triggers someone they don't care about you when you're trying to tell your story, they will automatically remove it and not let you get your word in. so much for supporting victims.

I feel this should be addressed in case anyone on the outside is actually curious as to this: Why should fans pirate anime from Funimation?

I'm not going to bring up the Vic situation because it's been explained here enough.

If you have actual complaints about the quality of their dubbing as it relates to their script localizations, you are effectively giving money to people who do not care about your feedback at all. Back in 2015, a writer by the name of Tyson Rinehart referenced GamerGate in an episode of the anime Prison School. When people complained about this, Tyson belittled, mocked & gaslit practically every fan who voiced a negative opinion towards this. Now this line was changed in the DVD/Blu-ray release but that's the only example we know of Funimation correcting this and Tyson still works at Funimation but his Twitter account is now in protected mode.

It should also be noted that same episode had a reference to the Fonz, a character from an old tv show called Happy Days. Basically people who write these scripts like Rinehart and Jamie Marchi think they're funny when in reality they're failed comedians which is why those dub scripts have references to things like current events/politics. It has nothing to do with an agenda that's not the actual reason, it's because it is funny to them therefore everyone else should find it funny by default when in reality, only the dumb simps who like these people think it's funny if at all.

This is probably why this tends to happen in shows like Dragon Maid or My Girlfriend is a Gal, they're trying to make these shows appeal outside of the otaku market by making them funny in some way which has gone well about as well as you'd think it will. If it happens in any anime or video game outside of that, it's because the localizers think they are more creative/intelligent than the people who made the source material.

TL;DR: These localizations suck not because of politics but because the people doing the job think they are more creative, smarter & funny than they actually are whom just happen to have left wing beliefs/biases.
