Ah no, they're kids. Just gave them a nice legal way of watching anime, in HD and a day before it goes up anywhere else. Kids love the novelty of being able to get premium and see new episodes as they come out. haha!

Meh, I quite enjoyed watching stuff in HD and ad free. Also, supporting the industry. At 5 euro a month, it's very little and by watching on those sites with all of their ads, it's helping unscrupulous people make money. Not saying that I've never done it though, since sometimes there isn't a choice if you really want to see something XD. Haha, on the forum, we never allowed people to discuss WHERE they watch their stuff unless it was at one of a list of legal sites. Same with the new site. We try to be supportive of the industry. Our members don't have to lol, they're just not allowed to name drop aka advertise the illegal spots.

Yeah, I understand. I used to be frequent on manga/anime/Asian drama forums and websites as well, and it's like unwritten rules not to mention where you watch stuff publicly. I think it is especially tricky for this genre, though. Those legal websites may not have full collection or may be late with the update, so people are looking for other alternatives albeit illegal. But it seems that the popularity count is not really based on the illegal sites as well, so yeah. XD

Yeah, on our old forum we used to do interviews with people from industry, that was then kinda important to push for support of the industry on the site. If Sakuga does start to grow, we absolutely intend to do that again. We have most of the old staff still on board who were involved with all of that.

I mean, even if the only way you can watch something is not a licensed place, you don't have to openly say that. We're not going to check that stuff haha.
 
Maybe 2 days when I was very ill with tonsillitis. It was the first time I got it, so didn't get it treated in time. I couldn't even sit up without severe pain shooting through my head.

Haven't gotten it in about 10 years now. I've naturally grew out of it. lol

I have never stayed in bed out laziness. XD I just simply cannot do it. If I stay in bed a little longer on a Saturday, that's okay. One can be a little lazy on Saturday morning. haha!
 
Och, Something that no one doesn't want in there life.

What is your hardest point of time in your life?
 
It might be because I stay out of political threads, something I've failed to do on our own forum XD.


@TDK: My all time favourite is probably Cowboy Bebop. As someone who's been staff of our community (previously anime-forums.com) for about a decade, I can say that I have watched quite a small pool of anime. One would expect that a person in my position would be a big Otaku or something. I leave the otakuness up to the otakus. LMAO.

I actually watched Snow White With The Red Hair last week. It's a short anime really. It was such a cute story, and most importantly, no fan service. The fan service has put me off watching most of the new stuff. Currently following the second season of Attack on Titan though. ^^

@Shannon Apple I saw part of the first season of AOT, once it was dubbed in English, however it really didn't stick with me all that much.

How are you liking the second season? Is it better than the first?
 
@TDK You know, I think what made AOT was so good was the fact that I watched it while it was airing. Each week I was like "oh no..." haha! I guess watching it all at once wouldn't have that suspense where you just have to log in each week. It was agonising lol.

Season 2 is pretty much revealing a lot about the origin of the Titans. I like it. The first season was definitely much more suspenseful. This one seems to be giving more to the story.

@Shannon Apple Aye, I agree completely that binge watching anything takes quite a bit away from the overall experience, especially when there is a lot of suspense. Being able to pop the next episode on immediately afterwards takes all of that away, I think.

Have you seen One Piece? My brother is crazy for it and has seen all 700 or however many episodes there have been, all three or four movies, and has played all the games released on the PlayStation consoles as well xD
 
No lol. I don't intend to watch it either. So many episodes 🙁 I stayed clear of Naruto, Bleach and One Piece. Haha!
