Well, I never bought any bootlegs, that’s even before my time. I’m talking about the time when anime fansubs were distributed digitally as torrents and such. There were lots of fansub groups and by the end almost every anime was getting translated, but the shows were almost never called anything else but the Japanese name by the fan translators.
When I was dodging viruses downloading shit off limewire in the mid 00s, the vast majority of the time I searched for English names, people recommended things in English names, and the title card of the opening credits had a subtitle for the title of the show that everyone knew it by.
You’re just being an insufferable “I was into it before it was mainstream” dork.
Why are you being so confrontational about this? Everyone called it oreimo, or baka to test, nobody used “my little sister” or “idiot exam” (I don’t even know the official name of this one). You porpusely went to the more mainstream cool stuff to try and “own” the other person.

Again, bullshit.

Well we’ve clearly been in different circles with different conventions around that time.
