A place i found to watch anime online!!!!

Post by solarsunrise » Thu Mar 20, 2008 6:35 pm

Hi there! I found this really great site to watch full anime episodes online! It's called Anime Crave! I know you can do the same thing on places like youtube but this is a little better to me. It is only a small monthly fee of $5 and it has a lot of anime series that are complete and they add more daily. They have the entire Sailor Moon series including Stars. Lots of the episodes can be watched in Japanese for those of you who hate English Dubs of certain shows. :) They have the entire Inuyasha series, Fruits Basket, Fushigi Yugi and many more. I love it because I can finally watch some of the shows that other people talk about that I haven't heard of. And its great for those of us who don't have the access or the money to box sets or DVDs. They also have anime movies and japanese live action shows and mp3 downloads! Its just amazing! Go check it out for yourself.

The website is:
http://www.animecrave.com

Become a Live! member and you can watch everything you have been missing!

Acquiring anime episodes and movies

This thread is just like the one in the sailor moon forum...the purpose is to post/discuss places online where you can access anime episodes.

Please keep all discussion regarding websites/online stores that have anime episodes/movies for download/sale to this thread.

Rachel: Huh...a...moo point?
Joey: Yeah. It''''s like a cow''s opinion. It doesn''t matter....It''s moo.

Sorry if there was any confusion. This site is not the place to puchase episodes or anything. Its a place for us poor ppl like me to watch anime for a cheap monthly fee. You can download mp3 songs but i believe thats about it. Sorry again for any confusion. :oops:

o.O I don't know why you're apologizing, nobody modded you. I simply created the thread becuase we mods felt it'd be a good idea to have one for anime just like the sailor moon one, and your post happened to spawn the idea.

I had thought of this when this was first posted, but for whatever reason haven't actually done it. So what I've been wondering about this site is how the hell can that be legal? Don't get me wrong, I like the idea of there being a service to stream anime episodes and movies and the like. Hell, the design and presentation of the site is excellent and is at the level I've strived to achieve in coding for years. But with no involvement of any of the companies who had produced any of the shows in any way, I can't see how such a site has avoided any legal difficulties. With downloaded fansubs, there is a gray area for shows not yet over here, and that shade of gray continually gets darker, and all of that has no money involved. This site has a pay service, which in my mind puts it right in the black, even if it isn't for profit.

Honestly, I would gladly pay for this service. $5 / month to have full access to that much anime that continually expands is a great deal. But before I do that, I want to make sure that I don't get in any legal trouble for doing so. Granted, with the size of the site and community it would appear I don't have much to worry about, but nowadays, it never hurts to be sure.

Just some various sites I've managed to find on downloading various Anime:

Bleach Exile: Website dedicated on not only the download of Bleach episodes and related media, but various other shows such as "Vampire Knight Guilty" and "Katekyo Hitman Reborn" on the left hand multimedia sidebar.

Anime Breaker: Various show titles(and currently uploading like hotcakes), are available for download.

Enjoy, 8)!
