  • Daizenshuu EX Plagiarism Redux

    (I initially wrote much of this article back in March 2010, but held off on publishing it due to never receiving permission to re-publish an e-mail. I have decided to just go ahead with it. It helps set things in context, and is a great lead-in to some extra commentary based on some recent forum…

  • Behind The Joke: Appule

    Regular fans of Daizenshuu EX no doubt have heard us drop Appule’s name in semi-sarcastic and humorous ways. It has grown into something of an “in-joke” over the years — it is funny enough on its own (“lolz random character”), but the way in which the joke continued to build upon itself adds a little…

  • Daizenshuu EX Removed From YouTube

    I was both anticipating (expecting, really) and dreading this day — today was the day that the “daizex” YouTube account was removed due to “copyright infringement”. What makes it so delicious is the “third strike” which resulted in the take-down: One of our “Inconsistencies” videos. For those who are unfamiliar with them, over at Daizenshuu…

    Why the “Frieza” Spelling Drives Me Nuts

    AUTHOR’S NOTE: This 2009 blog post seems to still drive a decent amount of traffic.

I should really just re-write it from scratch. Anyway, it’s not…

  • Pojo Blatantly Steals Daizenshuu EX Article

    I live in the real world. Let’s all be honest, here — the web exists as it does today because people lift content from each other. News aggregators, forums, social networking… today’s Internet is a fuster cluck of occasionally-attributed content reposted and repurposed. For the most part, I subscribe to the Techdirt view on content…

  • Lesson of the Day: “Brick” is NOT an Insult

    Daizenshuu EX has been around in some capacity (whether it was named that or not!) since January 1998. Yeah, in internet years, we’ve been around for eons. Once it began to receive any kind of traffic and notoriety, you can reasonably assume that we started to receive the kind of both loyalist- and oppositional-styled comments…

  • Across The Net: Daizenshuu EX Feedback

    Over in my Twitter feed I occasionally share some of the more hilarious or enthralling comments I’ve seen about our podcast (and even just Daizenshuu EX as a site in general). I figured I would throw a few together in one place for easy reference. With no real qualifying description on where the hate comes…
