#vs people who usually keep to themselves even when it's non paid unofficial work.

Not to talk out my ass, because I don’t want to pretend I’m in the know when it comes to fansub groups, reviewers and creators within the toku fandom, but something interesting to me as a semi outside observer is when stuff like TKR started and Tokushoutsu, it’s interesting who Toei and the North American affiliated entertainment companies chose to bring in from fan stuff.

Like the obvious solution would be to hire fan subbers officially to do the work they are already doing for free and figure out some means of distribution. But instead we get mostly stolen or busted subs and outside of like a handful of people, most of the people brought into to work for TKN and Tokushoutsu often have less than good reputations in the fandom.

#Again this isn't me pretending I have all the details #Or trying to say this relates to current events #but it made me think about how many threads I've seen from fandom guys who got jobs with these places #Who get called out for saying fuck shit on the regular #vs people who usually keep to themselves even when it's non paid unofficial work. #It's just interesting #Also sorry if this is worded weird.
