Copyright & takedowns

Write to [email protected] and include:

• A link to the exact page on Amashusho. One notice per title.
• What the work is, and enough detail to identify it — a title, a release, a broadcast date.
• How you hold the rights: are you the creator, the producer, the broadcaster, or acting for one of them?
• A statement that you believe in good faith the use is not authorised.
• Your name, organisation and a contact address we can reply to.

Notices that skip the link or the basis of the claim cannot be acted on, and we will come back asking for them — which only slows things down for you.

• We acknowledge within two working days.
• Where the claim is clear, the title is removed from browse immediately while we look at it. Its page stays reachable so anyone who paid can be told what happened.
• The channel that published it is notified with your notice attached, and can respond.
• If the claim holds, the title is taken down permanently and anyone who bought it is refunded.
• If the channel shows they hold the rights, it goes back up and we tell you why.

A channel that repeatedly publishes other people’s work loses its ability to publish. This is not a warning system with infinite patience: Amashusho only works if rights holders trust it, and a channel that abuses that costs everyone else.

Channels can dispute a takedown from Studio or by replying to the notification. Tell us what rights you hold and how — a distribution agreement, a commissioning contract, a licence. We reinstate quickly when the paperwork is there.

Sending a takedown notice for work that is not yours, or to suppress something you simply dislike, is a serious matter. It takes money from a creator and our time from real claims, and we keep records of every notice we receive.
