A few days ago, Several websites that illegally streamed anime were shut down.. Due to accusations received for broadcasting episodes and movies without the corresponding copyright.
Among those affected are the celebrities AnimeYT and Anime Mobile. Both favorites of Latin American users, to see the most up-to-date content and premieres.
For an example of its scope, there is la large number of downloads and views on their videos. And all this without having to spend their money to pay for subscriptions to sites like Crunchyroll or Toei Animation.
In the case of the closure of Anime Mobile This was due to a complaint from Toei Animation, because, published the Dragon Ball Super: Broly movie, just hours before its premiere in Latin American cinemas.
On the other hand, AnimeYT was accused by Crunchyroll, for going up material without proper permission. And he did it too. as a copy of the site. EIn other words, he was stealing and reproducing content from the legal website, making it appear as if it were his own material.
Also It is important to mention, These are two of the best known, but They are not the only ones. The list is longer..
Anime Fan Protest


Besides, A large number of fans were very upset by the decision to close both pages. They've even made criticisms, not to mention insults on Crunchyroll's social media.
Meanwhile, Anime YT is receiving donations exceeding $50. So that the streaming site can continue to operate.
In any case, These donations are noteworthy., because with that amount of money, They could pay for a subscription on legal websites.. However, unlike a one-time donation, registration or renewal was done fairly frequently.
In Latin America Few anime series are broadcast on television. as Dragon Ball Super on Cartoon Network. However, we need to be aware and recognize the work involved in creating and producing a series.
Let's hope that We will soon have a free and legal space again like the old Animax or Locomotion., where we can legally enjoy our favorite anime. And in this way recognize the talent of those who create them.
