FromSoftware parent company Kadokawa Group acknowledged a significant cyberattack, with Japanese popular video sharing service Niconico among the sections hardest hit. The extent of the impact, if any, on the Elden Ring developer is currently unclear.
You’re not being super useful, man. Commenting like this is just talking to yourself in a mirror. Wikipedia has some info about them, so I guess I’m a little caught up.
So Kadokawa had this failing mobile game named Kemono Friends, but they wanted a TV anime for it, so they get Omoto Tatsuki to direct it. He takes their product and actually turns it into something people want to watch, going as far as, releasing supplemental clips from the show on Twitter and even arranging a collaboration with the Tobu Zoo in Saitama Japan. This collab gave us the tragic saga of Grape-kun the Humbolt Penguin, a meme in its own right. Since the show didn’t have much of a budget he hired no-name voice talent, launching their carriers thanks to the popularity of the show.
Ultimately, it was the clips on Twitter that did him in if rumors are to be believed. He was sharing clips as usual, but Kadokawa wanted that content for the home video special features, so they fired him abruptly. He already saved Kemono Friends for them, so they cut him loose.
Goddamn I did not think you were gonna help out on this one. Adder, you biscuit. High five. Thanks for typing that out.
Links and everything. You’re a mensch and not a bot :)
Edit: I still don’t agree with you that they should release the data because the company isn’t a monolith and there’s innocent people’s effort and IP at stake. But at least now I feel like I see where you’re coming from.

What part of this makes it a good thing?

I’m interested to see who else they screwed over, considering they also got caught bribing the Tokyo 2020 Organizing Committee to secure a sponsorship deal.
