Don’t bother!

I have watched a few anime and they all end on cliffhangers. You can ask to be notified if a second season comes out, but these aren’t complete stories. This is why they probably don’t have a free trial period.

Just DONT

I would give it 0 if i could

Tell me why i thought this app today 10/23. It wont let you watch side ways, it wont let you screen share to watch on the tv and you can’t even download this app on your tv or any console so theres that too. ALSO it offered me 36.99/year which i was like well thats not bad and went through with it and got charged 57 and something like WHATS WRONG WITH THIS APP! No wonder its not known! Now im stuck with a lame tiktok look alike anime app for a whole year not being able to get my money back!! DONT GET THE APP or get the 19.99 a month which is still a lot for fake anime AI generated.

Isn’t free

There’s one series that I see that says free but it keeps asking me to subscribe but I can’t waste money to try it. Wish there was a free day trial or actual free episode to try the app before thinking to subscribe or not.

Love the concept. Hope it survives <3

I think the app has a good design, and the content is addictive. Once you get over the adjustment from traditional anime formats to vertical content the experience becomes very engaging. Considering the app launched this year I hope that the producers and creators can keep up with their production goals as their subscriber base grows. I would also like to see more updates from the company such as news releases schedules or production timelines for ongoing series. I don’t think the annual subscription price is unreasonable. Especially in a subscription based society. The value is fair for what is currently being offered and I’m excited for what is to come..

Could be better

I feel like I’d have not bought it if I had known that I’d never get a chance to finish anything. I understand that the art takes time but in the same breath all the shorts cut off abruptly so it’s not like a real season finale or anything. Maybe add an option to narrow it down and add a completed section of there are any.
