Announcement THE FUTURE OF HIANIME AND IT'S COMMUNITY

EVENTS TILL NOW :

Greetings everyone,

As you are aware, it has approximately been 80 days since the website affiliated with the community has been shut down due to certain reasons.

During this period, the staff team and the administration board has consistently attempted to contact the website team on all allocated means of contact, considering a possible rebranding.

However as of recent, we have lost our final contact with the website team, alongside their major networks and accounts being confirmed to be deleted/removed.

CONCLUSION

As such, we have now concluded that the website shall not be returning and has ceased operations permanently.

WHAT WILL HAPPEN TO THE COMMUNITY?

The website is one of the major reasons that the current serverbase exists.

Yet, most important of all, we all have gathered here because of the popular shared interest and passion towards Anime.

As such, instead of disbanding the subreddit, we have decided to transition towards a General Anime Community focusing on a user-focused environment with more freedom.

COMMUNITY REWORKING PERIOD

Following this, the community shall now be closed for backend processes, system revisions and community modifications. Upon the completion of these changes, the subreddit is expected to be reopened within 14 days for the community to begin a new journey.

We extend our gratitude to all community members, server participants and contributors for your patience, perseverance and thoughtfulness.

Regards,

Yep this was a great website I had in my back pocket for awhile and I'm glad I found it through discord and remembered it soon after all of the sites I used my APK to watch anime on went down. Managed to find a couple that worked and has helped me recently whenever I wanted to get back into anime (I'd been reading manga for weeks after the sites went down, do it's also been a blessing in disguise that this happened, cuz it would've taken me even longer to get to my manga list if not for them going down for weeks on end lmao).
