• From now on, we no longer require romanisation/transliteration of titles for threads made in the Downloads & Requests section. The only exception to this is fansubbed anime posted within the anime subsections. For example, it's no longer mandatory to romanise 向日葵の教会と長い夏休み as Himawari no Kyoukai to Nagai Natsuyasumi, although it's still a nice little bit of information to have. We have updated the rules to reflect this change.
