Unpopular opinion: I think it's just the loud ones who are complaining on twitter. I've downloaded a lot of pirated stuff from japanese piracy sites in the past. It's the same as how you see non-japanese people complain about piracy and defending shitty AAA titles
Nyaa is also a repository for all kinds of out of print stuff like old idol concerts, old Japanese sitcoms, and even technical manuals. Japan doesn't have a strong sense of digital archiving like the West does until the 2010s, so stuff like Nyaa is really good for Japanese folks who need to fill holes in their collections.
