During the spring, if there are high tides, the path under the sea is submerged and it looks incredibly beautiful.

En redes volvieron a aplaudir a DLsite por haber mandado a volar a las tarjetas de crédito internacionales antes que nadie, negándose a doblar las manos ante la censura que intentaban imponerle al contenido independiente y para adultos.
Tras las presiones de gigantes como Visa y Mastercard para restringir obras en 2024, la plataforma japonesa prefirió cortar por lo sano y refugiarse casi de lleno en la red local JCB, sacando incluso su propia tarjeta y apostando por métodos de pago domésticos para no dejar desamparados a sus ilustradores.
Muchos mencionaron que una simple procesadora de pagos no tiene por qué andarle dictando su contenido a los creativos, consolidando a la tienda como uno de los pocos bastiones que prefirieron cuidar a sus autores antes que arrodillarse ante las presiones financieras de Occidente.
DLsite is being praised for prioritizing freedom from censorship over the ability to accept payments via Visa or Mastercard. This clearly demonstrates just how highly creators and users value "freedom of expression" when it comes to companies dealing in content. While the specific circumstances of individual companies may differ, preventing censorship is a critical issue that all content-related businesses must treat as a top priority.
The Japanese government needs to heed these voices and take effective action—such as establishing laws to prevent interventions driven by the overwhelming power of financial institutions.
