I have been wanting to make little cards of all the love live scouting cards and found that ordering the prints is cheaper than me printing them myself. I'm not selling or distributing them or even claiming they are my own work. I just want to print them for my own personal collection. Do I have to get any kind of permission before hand/does it infringe on copyright?

It almost certainly does, but there's no onus or penalty on the purchaser(in the US; other countries may be different). It's only if and when you turn around and sell it that you break the law.

How do people pronounce Ufotable? I've only ever seen it in print. Does it mean anything?

I will be interested to see what others say because I have never heard it spoken either.
I always thought of it as U F O table, with the first three letters pronounced separately, but after looking at the katakana for it I think that it should be yu-fo-table.

The credits to their productions always have "An Ufotable Production", which tells me it would be pronounced oofotable, rather than yoofotable.

Gut instinct has always told me oo rather than yu, although Wikipedia shows ユーフォーテーブル as the name, which is yu.

That is also what the ANN encyclopedia and the ufotable web site say.

Ok, I guess that settles that. And ideas on the source or significance of the name? I mean, what's a ufotable? A place to leave your yufos?

I've had similar questions about Manglobe, but that's always struck me as a Japanese pronunciation/romanji of mangrove, since their logo looks to me like a mangrove tree. At least that makes sense in my head, whether it's true or not. Smile

The official website of the anime company in question says, 'ユーフォーテーブル' about its name.
So, if a native user of English says the company's name, it would be /juːfou teibl/.

There is a real-life round table of which name is 'the UFO table', and the president of the anime company likes that table. So, he named his company ufotable after the table.

Hey everyone, I'm wondering if anyone can help me by finding this hentai i once found in 2007. I know it's made by Pink Pineapple but I can't seem to find it anywhere. It is basically 3 short stories, the first one starts with a group of high school students studying in the library as the girl plays with her friends dick without anyone noticing. She purposely drops her eraser as he's about to cum, so she could swallow it.

The second part is about a teenager in a train, and he meets this strange older woman, who then proceeds to fudge each other.

The last one is kind of blurry, but I remember it being about a guy in a big house full of women and they all try making him cum, and they put it in a cup so they can possibly drink it later.

I hope someone can find it, and I appreciate everyone's efforts.

That sounds like Stringendo or Stringendo & Accelerando Ultimatum or one in that franchise. I think.

Well. I wouldn't have guessed that in a million years. Thanks!

So is yu-fo how the Japanese refer to a UFO? If so, it seems like it wouldn't be entirely incorrect to pronounce it as U-F-O table in English.

I believe Yufo is also how UFO is said in Britain, if I remember from the old British TV show UFO.
