How are you sure that all people who have watched through piracy would have bought it? Maybe they would sell even less without the hype generated by piracy watchers talking about the show…
They didn’t even make an effort to get most of the shows published in the west. Publishers always have to take it out of their hands and I doubt they’ll stop doing that because someone already pirated it. But even if they did, Anime studios only have themselves to blame. There’s no piracy problem, just a consumer experience problem.
This sure reads like you’re saying the poor aren’t allowed to enjoy art, because they can’t afford it. Also people in places that art isn’t put up for sale, too.
Ugh, poor people want EVERYTHING handed to them for free. When I was at my uncle’s gala party, there was this homeless man sitting outside shaking a can of coins. Motherfucker thought we were gonna give HIM those hundred thousand dollar checks. How would he even cash it, it’s ceremonial, dipshit! Anyway, we had to scare him away from the dumpster and bleach the food afterwards because the waiters were sneaking it to him. He wasn’t even TRYING to look at the art, he was just trying to steal shit.

This still reads as people feeling they have the right to these products.
