In fact, non-CJK media is explicitly prohibited by its terms.
So it's a bit strange to see the MPAA making the takedown and mentioning their biggest members (all Hollywood) in the press release. I suppose the US subsidiaries or partners of certain Japanese media companies might be members of the MPAA?
EDIT: Ah right, one of the companies named is Sony Pictures, which owns a US anime distributor (Funimation).
