Nyao.be Dead: Use Teamskn.net

Thursday, April 13th, 2006

A comment by illuvthisstuff reminded me that it was about time I actually posted about this. Nyao.be - the well-updated and fast anime direct downloads site I featured earlier - is dead, somewhat. Actually, it’s only that particular domain that’s dead.

So, you can still use Teamskn.net to connect to the site. Everything is still ok, but it does mean that the site has lost an excellent mirror.

Tokyo Tosho: April 1

Friday, March 31st, 2006

You just have to check out Tokyo Tosho now. Something special awaits you, lol.

P.S. Tokyo Tosho’s special offer expires today!

“Neko Sound” Anime Direct Downloads Site

Friday, March 24th, 2006

I think I’ve found it. I’m talking about the “neko sound” anime direct download site rllaneis was alluding to in a comment on one of my earlier posts.

According to rllaneis, this “neko sound” site should be one of the best, if not the best, direct downloads site for recent fansubs, but he/she declined to post the URL to the site due to the problems being experienced by the site.

As such, I’ll have to check the site out further, and see if I can/should feature it in a post. Shouldn’t take too long though. :)

Tokyo Toshokan Forums?

Wednesday, February 15th, 2006

Eeeks. Just as I stepped my browser into Tokyo Toshokan - the awesome Bittorrent Library for Japanese Media, I saw a link to Forums (new). It seems Tokyo Tosho has brought in its own forum to further hook us into downloading more stuff from Tokyo Tosho!

The evulness is… undescribable.

P.S.: Akagi Episode 4 is out!!! (At Tokyo Tosho, of course)

P.S. 2: Bleach Ep. 68-69 brought a most pathetic semi-conclusion to the filler arc. The kidnappings and everything were just training!?! Bleh.

Direct Downloads at Shareparadise.net

Monday, February 13th, 2006

With a tip from pimp, I ventured into Shareparadise.net (the Megaupload and co. link sharing forum) for anime direct downloads, and indeed, there they were.

Actually, I’ve featured Shareparadise.net before, but a few changes have occured since then - including the addition of these direct downloads and a link-sharing system. But I’ll leave the new link-sharing system for another post (since not many people will be interested in that).

1) Shareparadise.net [Direct Downloads Section]

  • Speed: Very Fast
  • Content: Tenshi na Konamaiki and Tactics
  • Posting Requirements: None at the moment
  • Update Frequency: Unknown
  • Video Format: .avi (High Quality)
  • Note: Requires free registration, but that’s it - at least for now. The direct downloads do not seem to be subjected to any points system - yet. A short HOWTO on the direct downloads is available as a forum thread. And one more thing, the episodes are compressed as .rar files.

Anime-Treasures.com Is Back Up

Sunday, February 12th, 2006

Lol, my pronouncement of doom was a little premature after all. Anime-treasures.com is up again, with a mirror for emergencies (anime-treasure.com) too.

Noo… Anime-treasures.com Suspended

Friday, February 10th, 2006

Arghh… Doooom is near. Anime-treasures.com is down, with a big sign saying:

Account for domain anime-treasures.com has been suspended

My personal opinion is that the host they were using did not allow serving of copyrighted material, of any country whatsoever. But, it could have been due to a lack of $$$ too, I guess. Hopefully it’s temporary though…

Blogsuki Up

Wednesday, February 8th, 2006

Anime Blog Toshokan’s (ABT) successor - blog好き - is up, and with a new domain too. But it isn’t accepting new anime blogs for the time being:

Please note that currently blog好き is closed for new feeds as my first priority is getting the old feeds working right. I will re-open submission probably early February.

Truthfully, I never used ABT much in the past since AnimeBlogger.net Antenna covered all my anime RSS feed needs. But there aren’t many quality anime feed aggregators around. So, blog好き will surely be on my bookmarks list.
