DameDesuYo

About
DameDesuYo (DDY) was founded in 2013 by Begna112 and Shinchan. Some of their most notable releases include Shingeki no Kyojin, Kobayashi-can Chi no Maid Dragon, Re:Zero kara Hajimeru Isekai Seikatsu, and Tokyo Ghoul.

Origin
The name DameDesuYo was inspired by Love Lab, which used the phrase "Dame desu" frequently.

A Silent Voice
What started as a typical fansubbing project lead to a series of unusual events revolving around its release schedule.

Nazaki Stalling

Nazaki, who was responsible for Quality Control for the release, stalled the project for a significantly long period of time. This led to a running gag in DameDesuYo's discord where users would ping Nazaki daily or even multiple times a day, harassing him to unstall the project, even if it wasn't his fault. However, Nazaki enjoyed the company and often instigated mass pinging. Unauthorized Release
