>Sincerely apologizing for announcing this to our fans so late. Since it would have a wide influence, we were always considering about how we would announce this all the time.
>Many thanks to Mr. Kawakami and Mr. Inoue for their quick reacting, listening and understanding.
Sorry to have you all worried.
>We are beginning to discuss about this case here. Yoroshiku onegaisimasu.

>As for the Kemono Friend's case, since KADOKAWA is only one of the production committee members, we haven't announced anything by ourselves until now.
>I personally agree that Director Tastsuki has rendered outstanding service for Kemono Friends.
>It is our fault that we didn't correctly understand about the real reason behind this controversy.
>We had two meetings with members from Yaoyorozu in the last week, and from that we came to realize the production committee and Yaoyorozu had very different opinions over this case,
especially with both side's understanding on the Director-changing case and copyright utilization.
>We now correctly understand the meaning behind the Director's twitter statement.
>We're going to discuss with Yaoyorozu about our future plan. Thank you for your understanding.

All our efforts may have paid off.
Let us hope.

Any statement from the man himself yet?

This sounds like nothing but lip service.

I won't rejoice till confirmation.

Do not get too excited.
We are still on the battle but they know they cannot ignore the backlash

October 8 protest shall continue

No, but that shouldn't matter since Tatsuki is a director, not the producer of YYZ(Yaoyorozu), so it's not really up to him.

It better not be.
if they just said "lol joke" the result will be so much worse

Well the rope gonna have to wait then

>good news
It's veritably nought.

>This sounds like nothing but lip service.
Japanese companies rarely do lip service. It sounds like Kadokawa realised there is nothing to gain by playing hardball.

Things can still fall apart, nothing is certain. But it does sound like at least some Kadokawa leaders believe it is worth trying to repair the damage.

The point is that both sides are meeting and talking to each other to come to a resolve.

They can't ignore it any longer.
Keeping the pressures up was the fans jobs, and we succeeded at that.

Even if they do bring Yaoyorozu back to the fold internally they will probably just shit all over them

Tatsuki will find a way.

Of course there is nothing to gain.

S2 they can still cancel. But there is already the Pavillion game, the CDs, events, mercs etc. That's a massive lost investment. But the bad PR is the real stinger

why is that thing angry

Maybe it was all just a big misunderstanding and better terms can be negotiated. Kadokawa will forever leave a bad taste in peoples mouths, but not much can be changed about that. What's done is done.

If tatsuki is back and everything goes the way it should, then I'm not complaining

>Maybe it was all just a big misunderstanding
That'd be a romcom-level misunderstanding.

They are probably too traumatized to do that.
Last time they bullied someone, it costed them this much trouble

>Good news

It is literally the same news. Do try not to stir up shit before any actual statements get released. Thank you.

Notice how Kadokawa’s exec avoids apologizing in any way whereas Yaoyorozu’s is sorry for pretty much everything? I don’t see this going well.

Seeing how our state cannot get any worse, any news is good news

I cant imagine them coming back without some sorta guarantee. at least I wouldn't want to in their shoes.

then again they are holding the keys to the kingdom.

Hardship.

>KADOKAWA
>It is our fault
>Japanese salaryman saying admitting to a fault

for a big corp to admit to ANY fault is already a miracle in itself

>Seeing how our state cannot get any worse
When things get worse, I want you to remember that you posted this.

He put it in the OP for people who didn't know yet, it's only been 8 hours calm down.

I'm pretty sure Yaoyorozu wouldn't agree to any deal that lets Kadokawa shit on them.
I think people demonstrated well enough that they want the creators, not the brand.

>That'd be a romcom-level misunderstanding.
We are talking about Japanese hierarchy of a huge corporation. It is entirely possible that decisions were made that had unintended consequences. If Kemono Friends had failed as an anime then what occurred would not have been news. But the fact is that it was the biggest anime of the season and it is possible some senior management could have missed the memo. Many of them would not have watched anime themselves.

Factually untrue.

...

Literally the same news from 8 hours ago? Yes that's obvious. It's for the people who missed it or just woke up. No everyone can patrol the threads every second.

Literally the same news since last Monday? No. That'd be completely wrong.

both of them are only apologising for putting out a statement so late.

...

>It is our fault that we didn't correctly understand about the real reason behind this controversy.
>We now correctly understand the meaning behind the Director's twitter statement.

>our fault we didnt assess the situation
>only apologizing for making a statement late.
No.

>Put the money in the kaban and nobody gets hurt

2ch did it. Never thought I would see the day where Kadokawa actually apologizes.

It wasn't just 2ch.
I'd say twitter overall had the most influence, and everyone on Discord who organized the events.

There you go.

exhentai.org/g/1123546/1d99bdd308/

We just need to use more cliches and death flags until they can't possibly happen all at once. What could go wrong?

How does it feel to have to come to the end of the road?

Yeah, but 2ch was one of the major players.

Oh fuck yes.

>snake
they could have at least picked a good monogatari girl

otter chan is the only one that I don't need lewd images to fap to.

What s the image saying?

Dirty things about your mother.

Maybe the VA's can slowly start tweeting about KF again.

JCs are the best.

Hopefully with this in the OP we won't get retards arguing like they have no idea these tweets happened for half the thread like last one.

Here's hoping for the best.

Translation please? Is this something about the history of NND?

Yaoyorozu, I give you my energy!

>Yuri Ecchihou
>Futa
But /u/ told me that futa isn't yuri.

You know... I know nothing is certain yet, but there's a real possibility that the KemoFure community did the impossible and just forced a Japanese zaibatsu to BACKPEDAL.

I remember watching those touhou flash videos back In the day not knowing the source material was a bullet hell game .
Spent YEARS not knowing this

...

"my generation had the most internet fun because memes"

Nice, some good news for today.

Nice.

>Kadokawa will forever leave a bad taste in peoples mouths

>this is what Kemono Bronies actually believe

>the day before the shitstorm is unleashed, the doujin is scanned
>the day the shistorm possibly nears its end, the doujin is translated
Quite possibly, the day before the shitstorm ends and Season 2 is confirmed?
Book ends, let me tell you.

This keeps on getting weirder and weirder

It's like getting duped into a wild ride that's somehow enjoyable and nerve-wrecking at the same time

I started watching once episode 5 aired

map of internet generation born 92-95

elementary school: flash era
middle school: nico era
high school: anime era
university: social games era
salaryman: after coming home from work exhausted every day, only watch anime that doesn't require you to use your brain such as kemono friends

>you're a friend who's good at unpaid overtime! sugoi!

...

I started watching when the fiasco explodes on Sup Forums and made me curious

Too bad for them, Japan knows their shit much better than a bunch of angry lesbians.
Yuri is pure, paca. Please don't spit on it.

Same here. I had been meaning to watch it before, though.

/posts/2877249

Nice template
>implying KF is the first or last IP they screw up
>implying only KF fans are mad at kadokawa
Boatslutfags are fucking livid as well.

Guys, I just wrote a heartfelt letter to Kadokawa, does this button really say 'submit'?

Paca spit is lube

google hand-draw OCR says yes

google translate
you can draw it with your mouse on a canvas there

>Too bad for them, Japan knows their shit much better than a bunch of angry lesbians.
Not exactly. It's the same as here, some nips think that futa is yuri, some not.

Here's hoping all the shitheels that were attracted to these threads for their internet activism and drama with no prior interest in Kemono Friends will shortly fuck off and we get our comfy slow threads back.

You know that's not gonna happen.

...

Alright, thanks.

how are the nipfriends reacting?

i can't believe silver losing it and raping ezo red is the sequel to the warm and fuzzy "this is no time for games" and "games are one hour a day" books

left hand is actually the worst

I wonder if anyone remembers this stream from way back, but SafariLive is on and there's some cute Leopards in trees and Lion cubs!
Check out if you want mind off for a while for just simple entertaining animal life.

happy and skeptical at the same time.

I do think we got the best of the Internet before it became the social network cesspool it is now.

the english channel is discussing Russians and Anonymous / hacker involvement

the japs are talking about food

any exploding vans yet

I wonder if you can buy a dog Friend.

there was a protest

twitter.com/sugoiServal/status/914886367347273732

>KF world probably has domesticated catgirls for personal ownership

don't care about the show but seems like this might make me laugh


can anybody tldr the drama for me

thanks

I still follow it.

That's cute, wish all protest is like this

...

A company decided to not renew a contract and now otaku are sperging out.

you should visit the discord to see the full-fledged autism

nice

Needs more servals

incidentally this ludicrous development notwithstanding, both ゲームしてるばあいじゃない!! and ゲームは一日一時間!! are fantastic books on their own merit so you should buy them, and since i don't think they've been uploaded you can be the first to do so as a bonus

melonbooks.co.jp/circle/index.php?circle_id=12378&additional[]=common

i have a half a mind to scanlate them myself, but not this month

Servals are sadly rare sight.

>niconicodouga boom
>anime age with meguca, keion, pornogatari, biribiri and glop
>age of kusoge with galfren, swordboys, boatsluts, lovelive and im@s
>age of kemonofure
What went wrong after nico boom? How do we go back?

Kemono Friends game is shut down
KF anime budget is slashed, director given full freedom to just do whatever
He puts his heart and fucking soul into it, producing the sleeper hit of the decade with a team of six guys and some no-name seiyu
He even hand-makes, on his own time, an additional episode purely for the fans
KADOKAWA use this as an excuse to fire him in an attempt to gain control of the sudden cash cow they're sitting on
The six-man team who worked with the director pull out of any further dealings because what the fuck man, that's not cool
NOTE: this is basically suicide in the anime industry due to corruption, KADOKAWA could easily ensure nobody works with them ever again
Fans over the world unite, even traditional enemies of Japan like Koreans, and call KADOKAWA a bunch of faggots via twitter
KADOKAWA gets scared, call their aunt and uncle in bel-air
