CATDOLL: Chinese subtitle group members arrested by Kyoto police for alleged copyright infringement

On September 28, the Kyoto police in Japan announced the arrest of two Chinese men suspected of violating copyright law. According to the Kyoto police, the two men are members of a Chinese "subtitle group". According to the police, they are the source of the subtitle group. They are suspected of violating Japan's domestic copyright law and illegally uploading the second season of the new animation "The Heroic Legend of Arslan" and the fourth season of "Magical Girl Illya" on the Internet.

The 30-year-old suspect is a friend of the 20-year-old suspect surnamed Wang, who helped Wang upload the source of the film. This case is the first time that the Japanese police have arrested a member of a Chinese subtitle group. Previously, the Chinese comic source uploader was also arrested by the Kyoto police. At that time, the source of the "Seven Deadly Sins" was arrested. Earlier, a Chinese source who uploaded the source of One Piece to European and American websites was arrested. The Japanese police tracked down the bank account based on the source fees remitted to him by European and American websites every month, and finally locked him in before arresting him. It is said that Shueisha and the Japanese police have been following him for a long time.
