Jestyn Posted July 22 Share Posted July 22 Hi, just dropping by and say hello, I might be new here but I actually used to be active in some anime forums from way back. Remember the era of fansubs and the community back then? Yea those are the days I actively participated and was in my teenage years. Sadly those forums are long gone now but my fashion for anime still hasn't died. Feeling nostalgic I just decided to join this forums because this place is easy enough to find in google due to simplicity of it's name lol.

You will find out about it. How ironic, that you mentioned it since I actually plan on making a post about it, a blog will probably do since this is gonna a long one with bunch of photos.

Well, digital fansubs is actually my era which was around 2007, when people can download or stream animes already but looks like yours goes even way back further, 90s perhaps? If you're from that earlier era then I would say that the fansubs from your era were definitely produced and distributed by people with lots of love and passion to spread anime. Not only they have to spend time subbing a series but also make an ship them to people and the money they collect is just to cover the cost of material for producing and for the shipment of fansubs vhs. Definitely not for profit. The very definition of 'Fan' subs is. Edited July 24 by Jestyn 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
