The system will train AI to recognize piracy websites by analyzing their layouts, advertisements, and content patterns. It will also utilize image recognition to detect unauthorized use of manga and anime materials provided by publishers.

Assuming this s shit ai would not only work but be even remotely accurate.
Even assuming rorbots.txt isn't used,
It sounds as easy as any other method to circumvent.
I also find it kinda ironic Japan is so xenophobic the don't seek to realize that piracy is the reason anime became a worldwide thing to begin with.

No shit. Way back when, we traded VHS tapes of fan-subbed anime across continents. I subbed two episodes of a show someone brought from Japan on laserdisc for a convention. This was the only way to watch anime back then. As fun as it was, nobody in their right mind wants to go back to all that hassle, so just provide legal options. If you build it, they will come.
