So I caught word that a hacker had taken over Odex’s website and left a message about the company’s evil-ness. It’s truly heinous and makes otaku look terrible. I mean, first off, look at the color scheme. Pink? yeah, okay, if you’re a hacker and a 12-year-old girl.

As much as it’s a relief to be told once and for all that Odex is bad AND evil– not just one or the other! –the message is painful to read…mostly because the grammar s atrocious. “What happended?” “Don’t get catched?” Maybe you ARE a 12-year-old hacker.

You sure are making us anime fans look smart!

(If you get the commercial reference in the title, KUDOS TO YOU.)

An Odex employee has confirmed to the blog Dark Mirage that BayTSP made a mistake with those letters– the whole thing was a big bad booboo.

Overzealous anime licensors say the darnedest things!
