there is also the case where a story starts being translated to other languages but, due to a multitude of reasons, see the official translations end without giving non-japanese readers a way to read those stories other than via unofficial translations.

one of my favorite series, Full Metal Panic, was never fully translated to english or portuguese (my language), despite the story being concluded in 2013. Lone Wolf and the Cub is another example of a story that took decades to be fully translated to portuguse.

while the article fails to mention it directly, it quotes "Independent regulators now police social media companies, including prominent American platforms like X, and threaten immense fines for non-compliance with their strict speech regulations.”

This directly indicates this ban is (partially) aimed at Brazil's Supreme Court ban on Twitter/X because the platform failed to follow the law in Brazil, and failed to follow a a Supreme Court ruling against a group of misinformation/propaganda users.
