Or rather, Crunchyroll, OWNED BY SOYNY, buys Rightstuf
And immediately removed the 18+ products, so I've heard.
To be moved to a separate website. So they claim.
commies love creating monopolies dont they?
You've just made me come to the realization that big corporat fatcats who want to control the entire market by any means necessary (see: Jeff Bezos) are essentially commies at heart.
FUCK, is that the last alternative?
There still be tales of hidden booty over yonder, for swashbuckling weaboos willing to sail the high seas. 🏴☠️

But seriously that blows as I have no known safe sources.
PlayAsia and Solaris Japan are good alternative for some physical games and merchandise including anime/movies/music/figurines. I don't think either does manga, but I've only bought artbooks...and, of course, there are others.
Right Stuf was well touted so it's a sad loss but I'm sure there are perfectly fine options outside of this...the only thing I'm extremely thankful for is finding out they got pozzed before I ever one day used them. Fuck Crunchy Roll.
Sadly, not all with matching principles will be informed.
Back when I was into filling empty shelves, I would buy from animecornerstore.com . A decent source for manga and physical media, although I've never bought character goods from them. A decidedly old school online shop but you're not going to get politics in your peanut butter
On the one hand, haven't heard anything about political dubs since funimation got shuttered, they finally updated the UI and been more older anime getting added on
Bad side they still refuse to have an adult section (just require either a re enter of password or a different password to view content), the rest of Sony is still a mess and they are getting a monopoly.
So as long as it's true the 18+ stuff is getting a seperate website than just straight up deleted, still better than Disney and Netflix in legal options but A LOT of improvement needed, just fire a lot of your executives and all of HR.
They bought a non-descript warehouse in Grimes, Iowa that was having difficulty keeping order pickers because the new Amazon center across town was paying more.
The irony is that Soynigger can only afford this because of all that Fate Grand Order since they own Aniplex.
well fug
It's funny to pretend this is therightstuff.biz.
