"@MangaAlerts Sony buying Crunchyroll and Funimation and then Crunchyroll buying Rightstuf is the worst thing to happen to the anime industry and it just keeps getting worse. They're phasing out the products that they're suppose to specialize in. We need someone to break up the monopoly"

"✨What Happening Now✨ If you placed backorder originating from RightStuf and it happens to include titles that they deem to be "Slow Sellers" your order will be cancelled and you'll be offered a 20% off coupon This is currently as of reporting impacting Anime Blu-Ray backorders & Manga Volume Backorders Side Note: Previously I reported that Crunchyroll is cancelling orders of recently reprinted Viz titles from their backlog due to "new reprints having a different SKU" from the original order Upon further investigation: I discovered that claim turned out to be false as Crunchyroll still had"
