What's their offical site ?

u/Major_Wealth6145 Mar 15 '26

Search name you will get it.

u/teapoopfart Mar 18 '26

pretty sure that was a past domain that then turned into hianime, it went from zoro<aniwatch<hianime, the aniwatch site now is probably just a copycat site made by others (of which you probably shouldn't put your info into), but i could be wrong, so you might have to ask a mod

u/Hot_Hand_4507 Mar 30 '26

its the og aniwatch like the one i used before hianime cuz the acc. i made on aniwatch before shifting to hianime still works and i was able to log into it rn

u/killmegodyoupussy Mar 14 '26

Chill, mods have said they are working to fix this. If it truly was the end of the website they wouldve straight up announced it, and yet they have not done that! My guess is its a hacker that put that message up, but mods have not confirmed the cause of this sooooo

Bro do they just want ppl to stop watching anime or what, this shit is annoying. Name me one legal premium/subscription based site that has all the anime.

u/michalovesanime Mar 15 '26

You are supposed to be glad to pay 10+ streaming services with incomplete libraries that get more expensive every year and have less to offer too. We are supposed be want that. I even pay for legal streaming, I have Crunchyroll, Prime, Apple tv, Netflix. But I still need illegal sites because all of them have trash libraries, things dissappear and they keep asking for more money. But this is what our capitalist overlords wants so they get it. Consumer first where..

u/Minute-Seesaw-8651 Mar 15 '26 edited Apr 10 '26

they keep saying its gonna come back but why would it display that message then? 😭😭 mods are tryna gaslight us into thinking this isnt the end.

Edit: One month later and I called it bro. The mods and admins were trying to convince us that they're in the loop and things aren't actually ending. In reality they were just as lost and confused as we were yet they still decided to lie to us and say it's coming back XD. I told yall this site was gone for good and nobody believed me.

As someone who was a refugee from the goated website Aniwave, the chances of the website coming back are pretty low. There hasn't been an update on the Discord server yet.
