I've seen the original fan movie back in it's day and I can assure you, it was indeed an awesome piece of fan fiction. However, the above story doesn't strike me as a surprise. Back in the day of Web 1.0, you had a lot of these japanese legacy companies that had no idea how to monetize the internet, much less beyond their own country borders. So private fan pages did a lot of the footwork for them, be it translating background material from japanese sources, hosting the OSTs or providing FAQs. It was a different internet back then. Money destroyed it.
