Piracy is good and you should do more of it. Use https://aniwave.to/ and https://4anime.gg/ for streaming, and https://nyaa.si/ for torrents. Piracy is the only means of digital protest that audiences have to fight poor worker treatment.

Just a note on Jellyfish Can't Swim in the Night: it's extremely egregious yuri bait and the plot as a whole does a massive 180 after the seventh episode to turn a story about living as who you want to be despite social pressure into some tepid slop about reconciling with abusive parents and bullies and conforming to what they want instead, with Kiui's arc in episode 11 being the only part of the last 5 episodes that's actually good and matches the earlier episodes in quality and themes. The whole thing is so egregious that it genuinely feels like there was a whole, complete story planned out, some executive came in and said "no, too gay, we're rewriting it" and then either missed the trans rep or someone managed to protect that, because those last 5 episodes feel like a story that's just been 90% erased and crudely filled in with filler by a different hand.
