Over 30 anime piracy websites shut down
Holy crap! Are any private trackers hit?
streaming sites like Aniwave
Oh so nothing changes for me, gotchu. They could’ve been clearer in the title.

Like others I’ve
seenbeen torrenting my episodes instead, but man… I miss the convenience.Don’t get me wrong - torrents are great, but for me they’re the best when I want to binge watch a complete series and/or keep it indefinitely. I’m typically following ~10 series/season = episodes/week; I need to find the series in a certain torrent site, then download it, watch it, seed it… it’s a bit of a bother, you know.
Hey.
Want convenience?
Miru is more convenient than even crunchyroll from what I experienced.
Awesome, thanks!
Going to test this later, thank you!
Any updates?
I liked it. I really liked it.
It got a .deb version, not just appimage. Installed without issues.
The interface is clean, and I could easily find series that I enjoy, both on- and off-season. (Tested with DanMachi V and Hikaru no Go). For neither it felt like I was watching it from torrents, there was no stuttering at all.
I use MAL instead of AL, but importing the list was easy enough. It’s less one thing to do, great - now I don’t need to update the anime list manually!
My biggest issue with it was how it didn’t work well unless it was a flatpak, and even then apparently the dev has issues with the flatpak leaking ram
Flatpak is now EOL, I might have to take care of that myself unfortunately
(If you want to support the dev, the app is being sold on android, you can use it on your android TV)
What the fuck this is how I discovered fate strange fake anime released I just wanted to take a screenshot
Anyway, here’s the screenshot
If this becomes even more popular you can have watch sessions with others all together too, it’s all built in
I know there are ways to have torrents automatically download when they appear, so you could set it up to have your episodes download as soon as they’re ready and you can watch them at your convenience. I don’t recall how, but I know I’ve read about that, but never needed it myself. I’m sure it’s easy to find the resources online.
I ended picking Miru (from another comment) up to watch anime, so I won’t automatise the system - I’ll use the RSS just to warn me when there are new episodes. That said, this extension (to allow transmission to download from rss) plus this site (to sift the RSS feed, so you don’t download e.g. individual episodes alongside batches) could help.
Setting up Sonarr is pretty easy, and using it is even easier. I definitely recommend it. Works great for me with Plex/Jellyfin.
I miss the convenience.
I busted off my convenience for a little bit when setting up Plex + Riven + Zurg (the same could be said about my Arr stack) after that huge learning curve it is all about convenience baby, I get all my stuff in all my devices with one single account, keep the progress of the full library even pair it up with services such as Trakt, and I can even share the love.
If you want convenience, go for jellyfin/plex, radarr, sonarr, browlarr, usnet/torrent indexer and jellyseer.
Nothing is more convenient.
Sonaar with Plex/Jellyfin is about as convenient as you can get. The only thing missing from torrents, usenet, and now even Crunchyroll itself is comments.
For currently airing/weekly stuff, you can use RSS to get all the episodes as they come out. Just make sure your search is only getting the episodes you want before you add it to your client. That means asides from the show title, also add the sub group and bitrate if they release more than one.
It’s a tiny bit more work to set up, but once it’s done, episodes just show up as they come out. :)
I just tested this now. This is brilliant, thank you for the idea! I wasn’t even aware that the torrent site could generate RSS for search queries!
For now I’m simply following those RSS feeds through liferea, but later on I might even automate it further.
I use Taiga for tracking anime, and it can auto download torrents, my torrent client can auto add torrents downloaded by taiga. For airing stuff I don’t auto download things using taiga though, as it will usually take the first and best torrent it finds, so I opt to just check what’s foud and double click the matches when they are the right version.
Torrenting will become huge again
I mean… when did it stop being huge?
It’s just back to business as usual.

My favorite anime website is down; good thing FMHY has a bunch of great ones to choose from. Migrating sucks, though.
Thank God we have torrents, but what makes me most sad about this is that many of these sites have unique catalogs that torrents don’t have or that you can never get seeds from… being honest, I would 100% migrate to torrent if it didn’t have this small big problem.
Enjoy torrents while you can! God forbid TPB is ever successful taken down.
I feel like all people recommending torrenting here are not really understanding the users of those streaming portals. I use them because I dont want to torrent the newest anime epiaode every week and I dont want any automated torrenting setups, because every mistake/fuck up might result in a 3 to 4 digit fine.
I torrent when it actually makes sense for me (high quality or offline viewing) and stream the rest. I am grateful for all those that provide me with those streaming sites and I regularly recommend them to friends after I install an adblocker for them.
They are pointing to a solution, not saying streaming is bad.
Where are you that you could face such a steep punishment? Setting up safe, automatic tormenting is really easy
It’s legitimately a non issue, set the torrent software to only connect to the VPN end point

Why don’t you just use real debrid or something and stream the torrents remotely?
I am gonna give you a couple answers for that based on what I have read in other places such as Reddit, perhaps OP does not agree with them.
-
RD or debrid services in general are paid services and it goes against their piracy beliefs (This is the silliest thing I could ever read… It only makes sense if you don’t care for quality and/or you haven’t tried a debrid service in your life).
-
Streaming torrents even paired with debrid services or VPNs (not needed when using a debrid service, or in some countries for bare torrenting) is more cumbersome than just using a website (even in this day and age when Stremio exists), which I kinda agree with them… But you get what you pay for… Am I right?
-
They just don’t have a clue of what a debrid service is.
-
Sounds like streaming from a streaming site with extra steps. But yeah when I torrent I use a cheap seedbox and then download from there to my own hardware.
Except that such an extra step is way better in quality and streaming speeds, compared to streaming sites, if you care about this or 1080p/4K high bitrate media.
As a matter of fact, since you can stream and also download torrents with a debrid service, I’d say paying a cheap seedbox (debrid services are cheap as well) is torrenting with extra steps… Without the ability to stream.
You could do a semi-automated system where you have all your currently airing in RSS, but still need to manually start them. It’d at least save you from having to go searching every time.
Sounds cool, maybe I will try this when I play around with piracy tools again
Seedbox?
I use one, but its a cheap legacy contract and I literally just torrent there, seed till I have a ration if 1 and then download to my own hardware
That’s about what I’d expect 🤷♂️ What about the flow isn’t working for you? (genuine question and am happy to help 👍 )
I noticed Animix Player doesn’t have “no ads” servers anymore and even when it opens the ads it doesn’t play. 😭
And Netflix/Hulu/etc. new accounts are skyrocketing, I presume?
It would be funny if no observable increase in new user happens
Do streaming sites actually work for others? Like reliably? At least for me, sometimes they work okay, and I can watch a movie without any buffering, but most of the time I have to deal with lots and lots of buffering. Sometimes every few seconds even. Maybe it’s because of the VPN? Never tried it without. But then again, even with a VPN, I get around 75Mbps.

Nyaa.si still up, all is well
So. What android apps and extensions are still best? Dantotsu with extensions seems hit and miss. Probably due to these takedowns.
Im new here but have you tried stremio? Its free
Yeah, I did use stremio
Good riddance, the less people who watch anime the better our society will be as a whole
As much as I enjoy Deus Ex (i see your username) please kindly perform of the act of self sodomy in your own spare time please
Surely this is a troll.
Low quality bait.
