History[edit]
Founded in the year of 1998, in the gracious law-abiding land of Sillypore (Some said the company was found in Roswell, Nevada or Area 51 and doubted its existence) by two people, better known as the fathers of propaganda, Stephen Sing and Peter Go, the company has been well known for its distribution of B-grade movie type quality animations in the SE&A region.
Prior to this company's founding, the two leaders once ran an underground illegal arms accessories company known as Games Market. It was swiftly closed down by Robo Lee's Singapore Police Force.
Operation Animation Freedom[edit]
During the first half of 2007, the leaders of Odex held a highly classified meeting with their local anti piracy agency AVP&S. The meeting concluded with a decision to start an upfront assault of Sillyporeans who have downloaded fansubs of Japanese anime. Most of the victims interviewed have said that it was due to the monkeys on peanuts translators which Odex hired.(The company was downsized though, due to the fact that the Sillypore army regulars could still keel over from watching their translations.)
It was revealed from one of the sources that the cause of this operation might be due to Odex's loss in income and causing them to have difficulties funding the nuclear program in North Korea, with which they plan to take over the world with. The operation was named Operation Animation Freedom and together, Odex partnered with US&A's Internet tracking company ButtTSP to gather intelligence and IPs before buying a black market court order to demand IP addresses from the Interweb Silly Providers.
Once the order was obtained, they swiftly whipped out their ODEXnote, and quickly wrote the names of the victims in it. Love letters were quickly and silently sent out in the dark of the night by SSingra, a death god bound to the ODEXnote.
SSingra feeds on money, but only within the range of $3,000 to $5,000 Sillypore Dollars. That was the amount demanded from each victim, or SSingra would commence with its fully-poseable legal action scythe.
SSingra was also known to hold hostages, demanding their parents to pay instead. A very prominent case was the merciless kidnapping of a 9-year-old and threatening to make him watch Odex subs to destroy his knowledge of the English language, until his parents fed it. SSingra shows no remorse nor feelings in attacking even a 9-year-old.
The first wave started in early June, up till mid July.
The number of casualties rose steadily, as Tengins fed Odex with IP addresses with consent, supposedly after a one-night(-gay)-stand. Odex fed the victims to SSingra via ODEXnote. Soon, the ambitions of Odex grew as their wealth increased, and they started to eye the brood of another Interweb Silly Provider, Moonhub.
Moonhub put up a fight, but its wooden fence was no match for the strength that SSingra had gained from the first batch of victims. Its brood was mercilessly snatched from their cradles, and phase two commenced. Sensing a war, the members of Sillypore Anime faction started to band together to fight this monstrosity. The States Time faction was holding them back though, through cunning tactics employed by Odex. Undeterred, Sillypore Anime continued setting up turrets to fire from afar. Some members decided on radio towers to reach other isolated citizens in the name of information. The faction came to be known as XEDODefense.
As all that happened, SSingra swept through the country at night, leaving countless of other citizens awake and afraid at night, while attending "settlement sum meetings" during the day, with its fully-poseable legal action scythe glimmering behind each victim's head.
Soon, SSingra grew bored of feeding on the same type of brood all day. It yearned for a new exotic flavour; the last Interweb Silly Provider left untouched - PacMan. The invasion wasn't going to be easy as thought, as SSingra bounced headfirst into PacMan's readily armed titanium-reinforced gates, Pacmen's drill-armed lawyers piercing through the heavens! As SSingra was forced to retreat, Odex decided to call for backup by purchasing yet another black market order, but was stopped in the path by the bouncer and resident disc jockey, DJ Earnest. It seemed that they had "no rights" to do so, except for the single one that they have bought, "GSD".
Beaten back, but not giving up, Odex decided to recruit foreign talents, a move favoured by the government of Sillypore. They brought in artilleries from Japan, who fired behind concealed locations, and set up sniper positions to continue firing from the dark. One sniper position was recently discovered to be known as the "Phone Call" position. Victims who declined to feeding SSingra would have their phones ring, and when picked up, have a shot fired through his/her head through the phone. However, none of the bullets made it through to the victim's phones. Coincidentally, multitudes of abandoned phones with bullet holes in their mouthpiece were found littered around the command centre.
Having weakened the enemy this time, they march once more into the black market, and brushed past DJ Earnest, but met with a catastrophic situation: they didn't bring enough change,all they had were 1000 dollar Sillypore notes; the Black Market Order was bought through a vending machine. They had no choice but to retreat.
Morale of Odex's leaders were greatly flatten. This was the opportunity the once victims of Operation: Animation Freedom had been waiting. They band together to form the Rebel Alliance, striking a deadly blow to Odex with their X-virus. THEY TOOK OUT THEIR WEBSITE. Their only communications system they had. Other providers just didn't like them. Without any names for the ODEXnote. SSingra was growing restless. Knowing that they are in grave danger from their once destructive weapon. They had since gone into hiding.
Rules[edit]
Though much of their actions at Operation Anime Freedom is condemned by Sillypore animation fans, Stephen Sing and Peter Go adopts a strictly followed Standard Operation Procedure and named it "The ten golden rules of Odex"
- Thou shall fine young consumers but not industry pirated distributors as they are too big for you to take on.
- Thou shall report any threats made against the company or the management on cyber net or real life, no matter how minor it is.
- Thou shall push the blame to other employed workers or government parties if any consumers question your actions in the Operation.
- Thou shall NOT audit or disclose how much money is earned in Operation Anime Freedom.
- Thou shall not believe and hire in Public Relations as you represent yourself and the company.
- Thou shall believe in propaganda and must make consumers believe your products are nothing else but top quality.
- Thou shall proclaim yourself as a saint follower/believer in Anti piracy and illegal downloaders your devils.
- Thou shall deny any wrongdoing of your acts in the Operation if any.
- Thou shall glorify your acts in the Operation and crackdown of illegal downloaders to national media.
- Thou shall deny that the above rules does not exist.
Quality[edit]
Most animation fans agree with the notion that Odex has asked Nigerian 419 and China TVB& scammers to subtitle their crappy animation products. Either that or 1000 monkeys. It was also believed that the video of their animation products looked as though it was recorded from a TV channel in a warzone. This has given Odex a new viable route of income as a few war movie directors have approached Odex about their animation technology.
Fansubs[edit]
After the failed attempt at stealing PacMan's brood, Odex returned to stealing fansub translations and dug itself a bigger grave with gold spades bought from SSingra's regurgitation, even though Odex used the ODEXnote to catch fansub downloaders. This time, they stole subtitles from A.F.K subs for the anime "The Melancholy of Suzumiya Haruhi", widely regarded as TEH ANIMU OF 2006.
The theft and subsequent worse proof-checking by the monkey on peanuts led to Haruhi sinking into a deep depression, rather than melancholy. The S.O.S Brigade was disbanded, and Hare Hare Yukai was never to be danced again.
Due to that, fanboys of Haruhi in Singapore banded together to form the KI-Dan, solely for striking at the Odex forums when Stephen Sing makes a rare appearance to (o.o)y in the threads.
Charity[edit]
The company is aiming to be a major contributor to charity as of early September, Stephen Sing and Peter Go, the leaders, stated that whatever SSingra barfs out from overfeeding due to Operation Animation Freedom will be donated to one of Sillypore's Charity and one of the beneficiary included will be Mr T.T Durian, who was very fortunate to be hired by a company in Abu Gharib with a monthly salary of $20,000 Sillypore dollars after he scammed the National Kidneystone Foundation of donors' monies.
