And it's a Californian company called PCR Distributing, which operates several hentai brands.

This comes very close to when MULTIPLE pirate sites where taken down including the very useful Aniwave. I wouldn't be surprised if that also came from California led companies, maybe Sony and their Californian HQ.

It'll return in some format as like all pirate sites but A LOT of content would be lost in the process, this is feeling like a canary in the coal mine situation and starting to feel like enemy action.

PCR Distributing is better known as JAST USA/J-List USA.

nhentai is a mirror of e-hentai IIRC.

Gotta love how California is the epicenter of all this crazy shit. So they're like the Funimation/Crunchyroll of hentai in the US - i.e. they own every single translated license.

Wonder if Blackrock owns a chunk of 'em? Hmmmmmm.

Anyway, nothing of value is lost because there are variant mirrors. e-hentai even had to take some shit down due to DMCA fears, so exhentai popped up and mirrors allt he shit that ehentai doesn't have.

This is a lot like The Pirate Bay - there's always a copy of the site running somewhere, and unlike nhentai, both ex and e-hentai I think run on a decentralized network called Hentai@Home, so even if the main site goes down, the site can be reconstructed on a moment's notice thanks to its decentralized nature.

My degeneracy is not up to date but does not nhentai generally do take downs of it's own content in regards to e.g fakku requests?

I think they do as you'll notice 177013 is missing from it when previously it was a high result on many tags.

But rather than issue takedown notice this company seems to be targeting the site AS A WHOLE basically claiming they don't respond quick enough

Emergence was missing for a while, apparently. I wonder if this was the reason.

On the wider topic, I have to wonder if this plus the massive wave of anime site shutdowns is the start of wider attempts to knock down piracy. I don't know if it will be kept up or not, though.

Still won't make me give fakku or crunchy roll or any of the other any money. They have themselves to blame for that. Make one with all the stuff and not a shit player and we might have a deal. I don't know if they added it but back then there was no syncing with my list I have so why even bother with a site that doesn't when I can have software that does sync it?

Surprised it's not Irodori. Though, I guess if they wanted to sue then they would've done it a long time ago.

Sites like this typically have mirrors. Especially if they use uploading software. I wonder if they will be taking that mirror down too?

Iirc it already was a mirror taking from sadpanda mostly but I could be wrong.

I did not even notice, I don't go there all the time but if I did during that time I would be scared for it, too.

They need to host these sites in Russia.

Russia bans a lot of the shit that's on nhentai and its original variant, sadpanda (e-hentai.org). I don't think Sadpanda would be able to host gay/lesbian shit, for example. That is literally banned under the law. Great if you're a vanilla tradcon guy who only has marital sex in the missionary position to create 2.5 babies to stop the declining birthrate and the importation of barbaric black/brown people into your white ethnostate, but bad if you don't have a stick up your ass about hentai.

I can still find lesbian pr0n on VK, so they are probably not very strict with that ban. It's probably more for banning promotion of LGBTBBQ stuff.

I generally stay away from nhentai because that's where a lot of retarded redditors are. So the comments section is full of overused shit and unfunny jokes.

I use exhentai because it's basically e-hentai without a ton of the dmca'd shit e-hentai took down. It also has a sadpanda gatekeep so it generally keeps redditors out.

I noticed a lot of Taiwanese folks use the site though, which is cool cuz then some Taiwan-specific content ends up there.

Why are you looking at the comment section of a hentai website?

Are the booba not entertaining enough for you?
