I've read the books already, and if I'm going to watch the series it might as well be in japanese.
Sadly, I don't know where to find it (not just some scatered videos on niconico) or even if I can download it?
(Doctor Who is 10x harder to find )
Do the japanese even have torrent sites?
If I could pay for it, I'd already would had, but given my age and the current situation of my country...yeah.

Japanese don't torrent. They use Perfect Dark or Share.　That or direct downloads.

You're generalizing 100 million people. They do torrent. Just maybe not as popular as those two programs.

I was talking about the fact that there aren't any massive 'pirate bays' that are aimed at Japanese or made by Japanese.

FC2 has all three seasons dubbed.

maybe you should watch it in English first (downside it'll be boring but you already read the books so watching it won't be as interesting anyway). when I watch game of thrones I do think about how they would translate it to japanese and some lines I have no idea how it'll be translated or at least i have no idea how to translate it. usually with translations from english to japanesethere's somewhat of a compromise because of the limitations that's imposed with reading time for subtitles and lip-matching for dubs (or do they just dub with the japanese subtitles or is it the other way around). I find that some of the translations to be dull and not doing the original english dialogue justice even just from watching movie trailers for american films in japanese (sometimes I'm impressed with the translation but there's times where they don't even try to include most of the information or to really convey the nuance or feel of the line. I guess that depends on the translator and editor). plus i personally wouldn't want to watch shit quality the show has action and boobs (lol). another factor to take into consideration is your japanese level. if it's too low it's not going to be conducive to your learning compared to something else

Are those programms somewhat similar? Are they hard to use?

You can Google them, but they are basically like Napster was, or other similar P2P programs like eMule.

They're a nightmare to use. Not so much the programs, but sifting through the content being shared.

I have no idea on how to set it up, what port to use or anything. I copied one from a website and it shows this after I click okay?

ご使用のインターネット接続回線の種類を設定してください。
実際の接続回線異なると、ダウロード・アップロード共に効率が大幅低下するため、正確に設定するようお願いします。

(Sorry for the bother)


EDIT: Nevermind, I already figured it out.

FC2 is such a trash website. I mean, the content is there, don't get me wrong, but I always have had buffering issues in the past or they don't let me watch at all because I'm not a premium member during peak hours. Have they improved their website in the past year or so I haven't used it for?

My wife watches it all the time and it seems to work well. She's got a premium account though..
