Tbh i'm a bit scared, if all go well or not in the best case scenario we wont be able to play for a bit untill they find a way to let us play...or not? I don't think the change will make us gaijins unable to play, mostly because, from a business perpective is an stupid idea to ban active and potentially paying players just because they're not from "region X". Not only that, but if they wanted to do that they would already taken action a long time ago, we're not troublemakers anyway

And from what I heard, the HTML5 change won't screw up the connection, maybe mess up with the viewers a bit on the first  days (not that I care about that tho) but overall we should be able to connect with the methods we been using...

...and if not, we'll make new methods... I had been giving this quite a bit of thought over the past couple of days and I feel that Kadokawa will take a path of least resistance/highest profit.

I imagine that they will implement their changes/updates and not care one way or the other how it affects the non-japanese players/audience. In a way, we do not exist to them (more specifically, they are turning a blind eye to us). This means that I don't see them doing anything specifically to harm or ostricize us, but at the same time, I don't see them going out of their way to make things 'better' or 'easier' either, thus leaving our options as: A - learn Japanese. B - Adapt. C - stop playing.

Given that Google Chrome already supports HTML5 nativly and that Kadokawa will make arrangements for their target audience (read: Japanese players), I don't think KC3 will be negativly affected for too long. There are enough dedicated folks who work on/with KC3 and other readers that they will find some sort of workaround. It may take some time, to be sure, but as already mentioned; we don't cause trouble, we give them money and Kadokawa has more to lose than gain by kicking us to the curb.
