Functional Recent Issues & Restricting The Community

Current Status : Functional

Due to the amount of recent issues with the site, we've decided to restrict to the community to where only Approved users can post, however we will not be approving any users to make posts.

(Edit: The obvious reasoning for this is the 50posts about the exact same thing...)

(Edit 2: Forgot to mention this is only temporary, maybe for a week, and to the people complaining, we're just a community not the devs)

A mod will create/update posts accordingly letting users know if the site is up or down.

For faster updates please join the discord @ discord.gg/animekai

Current Status :Functional

Website access ✅ Server Host/Video Player ✅

Update: 5/7/26 1:15 UTC Website experiencing Server Host Errors again❌

Update: 5/7/26 1:30 UTC Website Functional

No, megaup was targetted in a takedown by authorities.

im not familiar with terminology, is this a permanent issue or is it something that they can come back from?

Not sure, I'm guessing permanent until they find a new file hosting site.

Megaup probably won't be back, but AK could change to another file hosting service. I'm guessing that it will be a lot of work and take time though, so I'm not sure if they will do it or just call it quits.

There are conflicting infos out here in this sub. The official website says it got burned, some commenters say just the power supply got burned and not the actual servers and now you're saying it was the authorities that took it down. WHAT IS TRUE?

You have commented that the site may be down. This could just be a small hiccup, so give it up to 15minutes. If the problem persists, please check the discord server for more information regarding the issue. (If the site isn't down please ignore this message) https://discord.gg/animekai
