Man, Toei really are abusing YouTube's very broken Copyright system. Poor Mark, he's one of my favorites Youtubers, so seeing him like this sucks.

Awww, while understandable, the situation itself is frustrating. Always hate seeing stuff like this or like when Nintendo kills a fan game unnecessarily. I think it builds a lot of bad blood between Japan and western fans

For the reviewer at least. Glad to see YouTube actually doing the right thing, especially considering Toei essentially went behind everyone's backs to delete his videos. What assholes

I realize this topic's over a year old, but I wanted to add my thoughts on such heavy handedness.

Those Japanese companies are pretty much shooting themselves by blocking and getting things taken down like that, as by doing so they are actually limiting they own ability to make money, not to mention preventing people in other countries from even knowing and understanding that things like Anime can be pretty funny and cool to watch.
Their antics to totally embargo their stuff in other countries can even help boost 'confirmation bias', as a reply by Nick Carter on fakebook shows.
ME: "Do you actually know what Anime is?"
Nick: "I'm not gay, and I'm not retarded
.

It surprised me to see that anyone would honestly believe that only mentally challenged homosexuals like/watch Anime, especially considering it's huge variety of stories.
