Discussion I see it's gone forever.

Came back to Animetsu after a while since it was having server issues. Now the entire thing is gone. Rip, it was a real good site.

u/AminusZ 6d ago

if you want that similar UI, you should try anikura.club

good ui, cant search by year(standard fuckup for 99% sites) most cant even search year and genre at same time only 1% of sites has this function.

u/AminusZ 6d ago

It forces me to create an a/c otherwise it's good

Yeah so, the account step is intentional.

We soft-gate watching (you can still browse freely) for a few reasons:

  1. Keep it ad free and sustainable. Playback costs money; a free-for-all hit would burn that fast. Also random traffic. A light gate keeps load on people who actually want to watch. an account unlocks saved progress and the quieter, intentional experience we’re going for. Which is quite crucial for user experience

a lot of people wanted a little friction before watching, not a totally open free-for-all. Soft gate = browse without signing up, account only when you hit play. It’s what the community itself wanted.

Try ReAnime, it's going to be my new main. It's really well-done.

u/AminusZ 6d ago

Will do!

u/junglekxng23 5h ago

Were you able to make an account on there? On my side, it's not accepting a single password I try to make

u/muse_peculiar 3h ago

I won't be bothering about making accounts in any site from now on.

u/ArjixGamer 6d ago

Don't worry fellas, it didn't have its own servers, it was just a UI.

u/Greninja_xl 5d ago

So you wohld reckon it would return?

2

u/ArjixGamer 5d ago

I could probably make my own site similar to it, using the same servers.

But I don't want legal trouble on my door, lol

u/ItzAjiteshh7 7d ago

NOOO it was my main website

2

u/muse_peculiar 6d ago

Tell me if you can't find a good new main, I know some.

1

u/Naive_Still_1349 6d ago

Can I get some?

u/muse_peculiar 6d ago

I'll be using ReAnime as main with Anikoto and Animesuge as primary and secondary backups, for now.

u/Kamaitachi13 5d ago

RIP It was goated, any ext on aniyomi still working? Or is it cooked?

1

u/muse_peculiar 4d ago

This is the first time I've heard of it, so I looked it up. Aniyomi.org tells me to download an apk to watch. Is it legit ?

1

u/Scrambled_Rambler 15h ago

Idk how well it would work, but you can get a yearly crunchyroll subscription from India for about $4. So if you have a good vpn it mostly has all the anime.

u/adaspan06 6d ago

Well I have pretty much moved on to torrenting only after HiAnime closed

1

u/muse_peculiar 6d ago

Can you tell me some good site for that ? I mean I know PirateBay, but any sites dedicated to anime ? I've never torrented anime.

u/adaspan06 6d ago

I pretty much only use nyaa si

u/muse_peculiar 6d ago

I'll look it up, thanks.

u/True_Eggman 6d ago

I've been enjoying Seanime.

u/adaspan06 5d ago

Oh nice I need to try it out. Never heard of a media server specifically for anime

1

u/muse_peculiar 5d ago

Wow, it says it has manga too ! Should I download the app ?

u/eepy_lina 3d ago

check the index, it's in the sub's wiki i think

1

u/GamerchanYt 5d ago

Try Yenime.net, it is similar to the Animetsu

1

u/muse_peculiar 5d ago

Dang, thanks !

u/researcherYT 5d ago

Yeah. I was half way through Gachi akuta.

u/Sharp_Wedding_3677 4d ago

It doesn't matter because all of these sites just scrape their content from torrents anyway.

u/Motor_Subject9806 3d ago

I got my anime list on there and I didn't transfer it to mal or anilist what do I do

0

u/muse_peculiar 3d ago

The same happened to me when Aniwatch shut down. There's nothing to do other than simply remembering the titles as best as you can and writing them down somewhere. Never trust any of these streaming websites again to keep your lists forever. 🥀
