And that is just ONE popular manga series of many Western comics people mad at manag's success, time I mine more of that salt...

I'm Diamond Comics retailer

It's been a number of years since I was really active but the rights to distribute Kotobukiya was really the best part of that deal, not so much the comics.

Timeline of my anime/store/etc for anyone confused:

Anime Site:
Founded March 2002 (yes a year before 4chan), known originally for early popular AMVs that also got ported to Newgrounds

Anime Store:
Started early 2007 on eBay, added blog to site too
Added Amazon in 2008/2009.. -2008/2009: added anime store to site itself
-Ebay made up most of the sales, Amazon second, site third.
-Sold over $100K worth of figures yearly from 2009-2012
-Early tested Amazon FBA in ~2010 to help with shipping, they failed my test. They were terrible at packaging figures..

After ~5 years, my anime blog will be back as of some time today. It's the start of a bigger push I'm doing to return 2 old shelved & new projects. In light of anime getting a type of censorship & hatred I haven't seen since the 90s, I think it's time I add my name 2 the pushback ..I know I've attempted even back 2 years ago to do similar...but then I became a father 😅. Part of this is also the return of my anime store on my main site & (I really hope), the return to my shelved game from when we tragically lost our main designer (RIP Kenneos) (cont..)

Is anyone not seeing Amazon nuking practically every Nendoroid, figma, & Max Factor figure out of now where?

I have like 4 emails with lists of figures I used to stock now banned from the site & permanently delisted!
I got to make a more detailed post on this, this is concerning Not sure how newer figures are fairing but I've never seen this level of mass banning of (albiet mostly rare now) anime merch

Another reason why physical copies and sailing the seven seas is always a viable option... For even more context, I have an Android phone, a Note 9 to be exact and Google Play was basically the default way to play music on the device; bascially Android's iTunes. I can tell you that even before this I've had mp3s I've downloaded & put in playlists disappear at random.
