Don't know about "brain dead" but he certainly doesn't seem to understand the difference between copyrighted material and public domain. In the case of Dragon Ball in manga form, the earliest this could potentially happen is 50 years after the death of Akira Toriyama, according to the current length of copyright within Japan. I am not sure how this applies to the anime, however.

This "GojitaAF" has like 30 accounts just for a few videos about Dragon Ball pirate downloads. He's weird and weirder is his accent while talking English.

Well, thats not his fault. He is not from the US, therefore, he does not speak English every day, so he does not speak perfect English.

"I will never post a download option for anything related to Dragon Ball..."

(Link to a site full of DB episode and movie torrents)

... Alrighty, then.

What did that guy say?
James Teal (Animerica 1996) wrote:When you think about it, there are a number of similarities between the Chinese-inspired Son Goku and that most American of superhero icons, Superman. Both are aliens sent to Earth shortly after birth to escape the destruction of their homeworlds; both possess super-strength, flight, super-speed, heightened senses and the ability to cast energy blasts. But the crucial difference between them lies not only in how they view the world, but in how the world views them.

Superman is, and always has been, a symbol for truth, justice, and upstanding moral fortitude–a role model and leader as much as a fighter. The more down-to-earth Goku has no illusions about being responsible for maintaining social order, or for setting some kind of moral example for the entire world. Goku is simply a martial artist who’s devoted his life toward perfecting his fighting skills and other abilities. Though never shy about risking his life to save either one person or the entire world, he just doesn’t believe that the balance of the world rests in any way on his shoulders, and he has no need to shape any part of it in his image. Goku is an idealist, and believes that there is some good in everyone, but he is unconcerned with the big picture of the world…unless it has to do with some kind of fight. Politics, society, law and order don’t have much bearing on his life, but he’s a man who knows right from wrong.

...nor fluent English.

Apart from this shit, this guy is nuts as Kim Dotcom who got arrested for copyright and had his Megaupload empire shutdown (he's bringing back Megabox anyway). It's just a video, slow down, he might not be in jail for copyright.

The guy's lucky this isn't Sony's property or they'd have sued him already. All that Toei Animation does is take down their property with copyright claims.

But what was this person doing? Was it a video with links to it as the guy said he did not support that stuff?

He was complaining about Toei taking down his 2 TB collection of Dragon Ball stuff. He argued that because he wasn't making money off of it that it was okay for him to share full episodes and movies.

What I admire about this guy is that he has the patience to make a crapload of accounts (30+ accounts) just to post one or very few videos per account.
