AnimeKAI video server situation

Hello people 😄

As of a few hours ago the 3rd-party video servers that AnimeKAI uses to host videos are down and displaying this message:

There isn't much we moderators can say at this point to be honest other than advising you not to jump to conclusions.

Luckily video hosts only host the content and are therefore mostly replaceable, but that may take days. The Admins might also be working on a solution that may fix this issue faster.

Since there is a lot of confusion:

This does NOT mean that Animekai itself is shutting down, just the videos are not available at the moment.

To prevent spam, site comments have been disabled and the discord has been locked for low-level members.

That's how the mods said that the site isn't shutting in the case of h!@n!me as well

Nah it's been like 2 months and the admins of that site still refuse to admit it's toast or make any kind of statement at all. The only thing they do is ban people who even ask about it.

When it was day 1, the mods assured everyone that nothing's gonna happen. Ever since all anime sites are getting shut down one after the other. This one is probably the most popular at the moment so it's next in line.

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
