It was not sceduled but shunya’s worth it !

Just gonna leave this here since people apparently can’t leave me alone and because this is the reason I’m not even entertaining or wasting my energy responding to any of the foolishness going on because some of you have taken this situation WAY too far and you need to stop beating a dead horse and move on with your lives. 

I’m sure many other people are sick and tired of seeing this drama and just want to get back to the daily KatsuDeku schedule. I’m well aware some people are purposely dragging this out because of personal grudges, and its pretty amusing.

Anyways, I don’t want negativity on my blog at all, but it seems I have no choice but to stand up for myself, especially since my harassers and stalkers from my past have tried to take an opportunity of this situation to twist things around to their advantage.

To the people who are continuing to harass me like some sort of sick game, you guys are really pathetic if your lives are so sad that you have to spend your Spring Break continuously harassing someone like this even though they’ve already did what they could to make amends. Starting a smear campaign and trying to get a kick or jab at me whenever you can because you aren’t satisfied I’m not giving you a boohoo reaction or whatever the hell some of you are hung up about is so unnecessary and juvenile. 

You’re obviously not trying to do the right thing or spread awareness like you claim to be if you stoop this low and continue targeting someone for harassment. You’re just being bullies with nothing better to do, and you’re actually making western fandom look worse with your unforgiving lynch mob mentality.

Now I’m gonna say this once, and I hope anyone who reads this remembers it well. I am stronger than you think and nothing any of you say or do will stop me from doing what I enjoy. Please do feel free to continue talking about me obsessively, because it just shows how sad some of you are with your own lives if you’re too busy obsessing over mine. In all honesty, I couldn’t care less about what strangers hidden behind a computer screen think of me. 

No matter how much any of you try to slander my character or bring me down, I’ll still be here because I ain’t going anywhere. If you don’t like it PLEASE block me. You’ll be doing me a huge favor because I seriously don’t have time for any of this petty immature internet bullshit.

You don’t know me, and I am not scared of your childish witchhunts. I am not scared of your lies, slander, and harassment, and I am not gonna be scared away by drama starved cyberbullies just because they deemed me wanting to thank my supporters with my translation services as something to permanently hang me for. I stand by my belief that translating is a valid form of labor and translators should be paid for their time and their share of hard work by translating. 

Also again, cut the holier-than-thou crap with the “other translators who post doujinshi translations and BNHA scanslations in public are more ethical” because its not ethical when you know damn well those translators didn’t get permission to upload them publicly and you know it hurts those artists and Hori too.

You can’t go shaming someone with “DON’T DO THAT YOU’LL HURT THE CREATORS!” Then turn around and do exactly just that by reading their works on pirating sites for free. Don’t be hypocrites. I find it ironic how some of you go on about legalities, but you’re completely aware the BNHA scanlations are piracy as well as the manga and anime you enjoy for free every week on pirating websites. 

Now why did I think it was okay to translate privately? Because people post fan art and translate privately in discord servers and messaging apps without permission all the time. I think there’s a difference in sharing privately and publishing stuff in public. I’ve already explained why I didn’t see a problem translating in private before because so much of this behavior is normalized in fandom so I’m not gonna beat a dead horse.

I know who I am, my real friends and supporters know who I am, and they know I would never go around with the ill intentions I’m being accused of having. I clearly stated what services I was providing, linked and gave proper credit, and never claimed anyone else’s work as mine. If you wanna forsake me because I thought it was alright to do translation commissions privately, feel free to do so. I don’t want to be around people that make me feel like I’m walking on eggshells in fear I’ll make a mistake and have my throat slit for it because an apology would never matter to you guys anyways. Sounds too stressful to me, so no thanks.

I’m not here to please people who are quick to throw me under a bus over gossip, rumors, or the moment I slip up. Like excuse my language, but take your fakeass outta here. Some of you act like you’ve never made a mistake you regretted in your lives. Stop trying to constantly shame people for their mistakes when you know no one is perfect. 

And for the love of god, please watch out who’s words you decide to believe. Most of these petty grown ass women trying to make me look like a monster by spreading more rumors and lies are my obsessive stalkers from my past who harassed me and my friends, and they’re taking this opportunity to get back at me.

Continue under the cut. Its a damn shame I have to defend myself from these disgusting people and their harassment yet again. What part of “leave me the hell alone and stop harassing me” do you guys not understand?

Well said, dear @fallenprussiansoldier

Okay, you’ve made it, Lyric.

You’ve finally made me lose my last thread of patience for you.

For starters, I want to point out that using a screenshot of one person agreeing with you doesn’t help your case. I mean, that’s obvious with anyone with critical thinking but I appreciate your attempts at saving your skin, even though it could all have been solved if you had at least tried to write a decent apology for PROFITING OF OTHER ARTISTS’ WORKS BY MAKING A PATREON FOR TRANSLATIONS OF DOUJINS WITHOUT THE ARTISTS PERMISSION instead of writing a call out post attacking other translators that had nothing to do with what you did, and pretending to be the victim as per usual.

You’re calling people harassers and stalkers, even though you are the one who harassed many people from the owari no seraph fandom including many close friends of mine by telling your followers and your friends how oh so bad they were, using out of context screenshots just like you’re doing right now, that is without mentioning the top-bottom wars you caused, of course.

Out of appreciation and respect for our mutuals in common (I’m really sorry everyone) as well as because of my personal hope that you would stop attacking anyone who didn’t share your tastes or agreed with everything you said, I let you be.

But you’ve done it… you have yet again posted out of context screenshots of a very dear friend of mine, in your cute attempt at deviating the attention from your own faults just like you did with your “apology”.

Why don’t you show the whole conversation, hmm? Too scared to show the truth behind the context? Just how desperate are you to keep the few followers that aren’t bots you still have?

What are you going to do, now that everyone is finally seeing just what kind of person you are? Are you going to message me privately in an attempt to manipulate me into saying things that will allow you to take out of context screenshots to help your case too? Are you going to send even more bots to defend you? Are you going to flood my askbox with death threats too? Are you going to post this on your private chats to make all your friends hate me again? Are you going to use your non-existent psychoanalyst to say just how bad I am, instead of finally going to one (a real one, I mean) yourself?

You can’t keep running away from your faults and trying to make everyone else look bad. We will not let you do that anymore.

If you try to bring Kumi or anyone else into your mess again, I will have to let you know that the people you have harassed aren’t bots. I am not a bot. My friends are not bots, my followers are not bots.

i am here because my intentions were misrepresented.

there are reasons for why i dont want to post the rest of the conversation that happened between seairu and i (at like, 4am my time too, im fucking tired guys–i cant fucking believe i had to wake up to people informing me that a screenshot of a private conversation, used without my permission, was used to open a call-out post in an issue that i had clearly expressed i wanted no part in). 

the screencap that seairu included there was my attempt to remain neutral and to avoid picking a fight.

the only reason why we were speaking at all was because i was passing along a message from someone else.

but, to clarify:

when i say “i agree that what happened was a really bad overreaction to what was essentially a really small, technical difference.” i was talking about the ethical difference between commissioned translations that are paid for individually, as a service, versus putting translations behind a paywall, which makes it a good.

to me this is a very subtle, technical difference. and when trying to figure out what the fuck was going on it took me awhile to figure out what the issue was.

this post cleared things up for me.

and i stand by my statement–all of this drama regarding this issue was overblown.

HOWEVER. that is NOT criticizing the people that were calling seairu out for this.

even if it’s a small, technical issue, i do think its worth pointing out. even though it confused me a lot and it annoys me to see drama when im just here to have a good time, like everyone else, im glad to have been educated more on this issue.

but in my opinion, the reason why the drama got so bad wasn’t the fault of the people criticizing seairu. it’s seairu’s actions that dragged this out for so long.

here are some other things that i said to seairu during this conversation. 

and the response was:

to which i said:

in other words:

1. if you’re going to take screencaps of private conversations, the least you could do is blur my url out. as i have said, i didnt want to get involved at all. im only here because my views were misrepresented, and i felt that it was necessary to clear things up because my words were used to open up a call-out against people who, as far as i know, have done nothing wrong.

2. i think it’s important to acknowledge that seairu did take measures to fix their mistake (i.e. taking things down and giving refunds, etc.) HOWEVER,

3. i think the issue stopped being about paywalls and translation services a long time ago. the issue is actually seairu’s conduct. as @fallenprussiansoldier and @no-signs-no-lights have said already:

as i told seairu, i think the best course of action would have been to leave things alone.

i expressed wanting to not have anything to do with this drama.

i even said that to seairu out of consideration for them, because in my honest opinion, if seairu had  just left things at the apology (though i agree, it was a shitty apology because it was less of an “im sorry i was wrong” and more of a “i still dont see why what i did was wrong–look at all these uninvolved people who have done nothing to me, let’s go attack THEM instead”), taking things down, and giving refunds–the  issue would already be over. 

so imagine my consternation, when seairu used a screencap from our conversation to do the EXACT OPPOSITE.

dont fucking ask me to ask people to take down their call-out posts, and complaining about witchhunts, and then turn around and make more call-out posts and trying to start witchhunts of your own.

❤ I love this AU so much. uNFSDKJGHH❤
