A1 Pictures is a 100% subsidiary of Aniplex

A1 Pictures is a 100% wholly owned subsidiary of Aniplex and Aniplex is the company who engaged BayTSP to perform the IP tracking of torrents, with their associated flurry of DMCA warning letters.

Kannagi is an A1 Pictures/Aniplex title.

Please be aware. .

Thanks for the heads up...

Heh too bad I hate the Kannagi designs. Now of course when Sekerei 2 comes out next year I gotta keep refreshing on Veoh and Anime-DS until they have it ready for streaming.

Sorry Mr Forbin-gerbil .... but you mentioned that you 'hate(d) the kannagi (character) designs'??? I don't understand ... is it a childhood trauma or perhaps a bad memory of an inebriated and/or debaucherous evening of anime viewing??? I trust your opinions, but I find myself bewildered by some of your cryptic statements.

Nope I just don't like the designs on Kannagi. It's more of a /bleh, I don't like that look, kinda of thing.

And the 'famed 5' gets their anime any way they can and since Aniplex is being a bunch of nasty people, I won't Torrent their stuff but Stream is ok.

I would say Funimation is just as nasty but Aniplex took that final step over the line.

Oh but I don't think we ever talking about torrenting Licensed items. I usually get it from the 'sale' rack when it's like $4 each.

Aniplex is just being a hard ass on a popular series. They did it with Rod the TV too.

Read or Die - TV is a genius series so I wouldn't blame them for trying to protect it.

I always intend on buying what I say I will buy, but Funimation has been very difficult to deal with as of late.

It's these BayTSP guys they sent after the people that has really crossed that fine line (so to speak). I always loved Aniplex too (better than most) but now its a different story...

Sigh ... BayTSP is still under contract to Aniplex and they are still sniffing around certain torrents ...

I just 'detected' them peeking into and trying to connect to my Kannagi torrent ..

Be aware and be cautious....

Add KNK (Kara No K) and Gurren Langann to the series being 'watched'

Just want to offer a quick alert that BayTSP is still at it and it appears that they are 'monitoring' the series The Tale of Genji.

If you are not running the PG2 app, then you probably should avoid this title or view it in a streaming format.
