o LEGALITY OF COPYING ANIME / ANIME SCRIPTS / ANIME GIF FILES
By virtue of trade agreements between the US and Japan, it is illegal in the US
to distribute copies of anime and anime-related material without having
permission from the copyright holder, regardless of whether or not any fee is
charged. This includes all anime features, official or fan-generated scripts
for these features and illustrations featuring the likenesses of the characters
appearing in these features (as in GIF files).
Copyrights are intended to make sure that the author of the work receives
appropriate compensation for his/her job. Some people consider the copying of
anime a morally corrupt practice, as the author of the work is not being paid.
There have been several counter-arguments to this by anime fans, such as:
- It is unlikely that the Japanese companies will sue the fan, as this
practice creates a demand for other anime-related products, which increases
their sales.
- The fan is against profiting from this activity, and in some cases even
boycotts and denounces any people who are doing it for profit.
- These features are far too expensive/hard-to-find for the fan to acquire
them by other means.
Regardless of any moral or economical justifications, the fact is that copying
of anime features is illegal under US law. If the fan resorts to this method
to obtain anime material, he/she should be aware of this.
o TRANSLATED ANIME
The following companies have translated anime videos for sale. These
are OFFICIAL versions, done with the authorization of the owners.

(If ordering using English, use clear, simple sentences and write the
product names in Japanese (or use a photocopy) and their catalog
numbers (just to be on the safe side) whenever possible. Their
written English is poor, but perfectly understandable. I've never
called them by phone. They accept yen international money orders as
well as bank drafts (I'm not sure about personal cheques). If sending
a draft, add 3000 yen to the total amount for bank handling charges in
Japan. They do not accept credit cards. They also do not have a
catalogue. Flip through the latest Japanese anime magazine such as
Animage and Newtype for their latest goods.)

A crude guide to using FTP:
Unix Command: ftp <site name>
Login: anonymous
Password: login@machine_name
Let's say that geeker@pac.man.edu wants to get the latest and greatest
Ranma-chan GIF (/anime/hentai/r-chan1.gif) from happosai.com.
- At the Unix prompt, geeker types "ftp happosai.com".
- At the "login:" prompt, he types "anonymous".
- At the "Password:" prompt, he types "geeker@pac.man.edu". He's now logged
at happosai.com.
- geeker now uses cd(1) and ls(1) just like in Unix to find whatever he's after.
If geeker want to get the Ranma-chan GIF, he must do the following:
- He uses cd(1) to go to /anime/hentai. Once there, he uses ls(1) to make sure
that r-chan1.gif is actually there.
- GIF files are binary, so geeker sets the file transfer type to binary by
typing "binary".
- geeker types "get <filename>", where <filename> is the name of the file he
wants to copy. In our case, he would type "get r-chan1.gif" to get the file.
Note that no wildcards are allowed.
- Several other ftp commands to know:
"?" - lists the commands available
"quit" - exits the program
"ascii" - sets file transfer mode to ascii
"mget" - allows multiple-file gets, and wildcards
If you need help, or want to learn advanced techniques, DON'T post to
rec.arts.anime for help. Instead, ask your local system administrator / CCON
/ Unix witch doctor for help. That's what they're paid for.
Notes:
- Synopses are available at most of the sites mentioned above.
- Sound files: These are IFF "raw" sound files, which can be played on Amiga,
MS-DOS, Macintosh and Sun computers. There is also a text file with
instructions on how to play them.
- EAV (Electronic Animation Velocity) and AnimeStuff are electronic anime
fanzines. EAV is put out by Randall Stukey and the Anime Publications
Bureau, and AnimeStuff is published by a group of anime fans in CompuServe.
- urusei-yatsura archives: the collected messages of four years (1987-1991)
of the Urusei Yatsura mailing list (see below). Warning: this file is
HUGE! (about 300 pages long).
- The Rutgers Anime files contain all the anime song translations by Theresa
Martin, and current copies of all the articles written by Steve Pearl
(see ELECTRONIC ANIME RESOURCES: ARTICLES, below).
- Remember to set your file type to BINARY before reading any GIF/JPEG files,
sound files, or compressed text (.Z) files.
