Says you. Now, according to Yasuhiro Nightow, 
creator of the Trigun manga, he doesn't get 
royalties on the AMOUNT of tapes/DVD's sold after 
a certain amount per month, which is fairly low 
(and always met, even on slow months...whether I 
bought the DVD or not wouldn't affect him or 
not). American sales never affect him, they only 
make money for the company which bought his 
anime. He basically sold all of the rights and 
gets no little to no return on the anime, which 
is why he relies on his manga. Of course, he 
coulda been screwed for all I know, considering 
the guy didn't even know what yaoi was, and that 
his characters were being subjected to it in 
doujinshi...(funny story, actually...)

Well, Jinjue for one, I am not going to divulge 
her last name to the forum, but she works as a 
negotiator, and often meets many manga/anime 
creators and execs. She is the woman through whom 
I met Yasuhiro Nightow.

And so for you, lovey, I scanned my post office 
receipt AND the slip for the insurance on one of 
the packages I mailed. Enjoy.
