      You can change it to all Japanese language with English subtitles in your profile.

      • Yay!

      • I tried doing that, but when I click on "Update Changes", I get a validation error on the email field "This email address is already in use".

        • It's a beta after all. Just change the email to somthing different.

          The site is in beta and there is a report bug button in the lower right corner. I reported this bug and got this reply:

          Thanks for letting us know - we're aware of the issue and are in the process of fixing. Hope you enjoy the rest of the service.

    Actually some of them are only available as english dubs, e.g Fate Zero. And this is the one show that should be watched in it's native language.

    • +11

      I think they should all be watched in their native language…except for DBZ. I'm used to the censoring and dialog from the yanks

  • Very nice! Saves me downloading some of them :)

  • Awesome, thanks OP! Hopefully more shows will be added in the future.

    • They've said on Facebook, that they're adding a lot more and catching up soon on the simulcasts.

  • A lot of these shows were already available on their old streaming service. I guess you need to start from somewhere though.

    Any competition to CR's virtual monopoly in the anime streaming business is gr-

    AnimeLab is only available in Australia and New Zealand.

    Nevermind.

    Oh, and don't bother watching Persona 4. The remake based on Golden (the Vita version with added events and characters) will start airing in July. Hopefully with less QUALITY this time.

    This is great, you can download these on your iphone or ipad with video downloaded of something else, file sizes are 300-400mb each so it's great quality.

      download? how did you do that? do you mean stream?

      • There are video downloading apps, just like then utube video downloading ones, they can download almost any streaming video.

        If your going to stream the video might as well direct download it since its the exact same siZe, also advantage of downloading it is you can pause it and watch it whenever, with stream if you lose connection it needs to re-download and that's waste of data if its on your plan, also note once downloaded you can take it anywhere.

        Just completed downloading a few seasons on my ipad, saves the hassle to download it from pc and via transfer. Now I can take
        It wherever I go :)

        • thanks i use android, what are the apps you use?

    • Can you recommend a streaming video download app?

      Most are fiddly, poor quality, and full of ads and dodgy bundleware…

  • +6

    Drop everything and watch Attack on Titan. That's all I have to say.

  • +1

    Only free while it's in beta? Any idea how long it'll be for?

  • +2

    any suggestions for best anime series that have been completed? just finished watching full metal alchemist brotherhood and it was amazing.
    attack on titan looks good too, might check it out

    • +5

      Attack on Titan is pretty popular atm, good too. Steins Gate and Gurren Lagann are quite popular too and most accept them as good shows.

      • cool thanks for that

        • Attack on Titan is awesome!

        • Good recommendation! I'm 5 episodes in already, pretty good show!

          Any other ones people like?

    • sword art online

      • That's not completed. New season starting soon.

        • +1

          the seasons are not continuations though, they are self contained stories

  • Anyone else having it freeze every 3-5 seconds while watching?

    I tried to reduce quality so it's watchable, but no option for that. Doesn't buffer ahead if you just pause it, either.

    • Yes, it seems to do it most at the begining (title sequence etc) where you get a spinning circle, but it usually recovers after the title sequence.

  • Does this mean it will be a paid service after beta? Or are they going to push adverts in the videos like YouTube.

  • The website is dramatically slow now, to many leeches >:(

    • I have no problem with it.

  • if you love ghost in shell you'll like psychopass!

    • Cheers I'll give it a look.

    • Agreed. We've finished season 1 of Attack on Titan and now watching Psycho pass - it's awesome.
