According to its own statements, the fansub portal Animesuki was requested by a law firm to cease the distribution of fansubs for which the studio Media Factory holds the rights. The studio's catalog includes titles such as "UFO Princess Valkyrie" and "RahXephon." Animesuki, which strives to remove anime that have been licensed outside of Japan from its directory, has complied with the studio's request.

The fact that, in addition to license holders like ADV, Japanese studios themselves are now taking action against fansubs is unprecedented.
