    Isn't DanMachi literally SAO : Big Tits Edition? Also the damn boob string how did that even get popular.

    Nah DanMachi is way better than SAO, sadly the DanMachi anime version was a bit rushed, if you read manga, I recommend you read the DanMachi manga

    Hmm, I might give the manga a try then, though it still doesn't sound that compelling. I am also still reading TWGoK manga after having finished the anime recently, this arc is pretty different and interesting.

    On another note, some of you guys must be watching Jun Maeda's new anime Charlotte and holy crap what the actual fuck was episode 9, so many things revealed in half an episode, bruh; it's getting pretty good now.

    Also about 8 episodes in Spice and Wolf, shit is really good, love the character interaction between Holo and Lawrence, it also has a pretty unique setting; for a RomCom that is, Holo kinda reminds me a bit of Senjougahara with the way she teases Lawrence, similarly how Senjou was always teasing Araragi. Actually, I should probably start watching Nisemonogatari soon...

    Charlotte episode 9 was so confusing. Has me questioning what will happen in episode 10. The monogatari series is really good though.

    I'm glad this happened in Charlotte, it was a bit mediocre if it went on like it did, it didn't really have something new/unique.

    Sorry but it's much much better to read DanMachi's light novel than the manga. I've read both.

    I'd suggest reading through the manga for some pictures after going through the LN, but the LN is actually good so you'll be missing some good content if you read only the manga or watch only the anime.

    Overlord is almost certainly the same deal, the light novel is good, reading the manga/watching the anime first/instead is like shooting yourself in the foot.

    A few other light novels with the same exact situation: Douluo Dalu, Zhan Long, Mushoku Tensei, Konjiki no Word Master, Rising of the Shield Hero, Legendary Moonlight Sculptor, Slime Datta Ken.

    One of the few times I'd say the manga is better are in cases like Re:Monster, you lose a bit of content but honestly not a large amount and the graphics are great.

    Oh it should also be noted that all of those I listed don't have official translations, just fan translations of their WN/LNs. You may notice somewhat of a discrepancy between the WN and the Manga/Anime because there are usually a few changes for consistency sake when going from a WN to LN.

    Now if you absolutely hate reading and just want the manga, whatever then. :P

    Oh and to give an idea of how rushed the anime did things... The anime's first season had about 4 VOLUMES of DanMachi WN~

    Definitely, it was only a matter of time before Jun Maeda did something crazy, now we need to wait for the true feels...

    Been watching 'Rokka no Yuusha' and 'The Tower of Druaga' series recently. Thoroughly enjoying both of them!

    You could google something for torrents for high quality or crunchyroll or google another site for streaming

    Thanks a lot man, I've been looking for a decent anime site which uses a html5 player (I watch anime on my Wii U) and is in HD. Sucks that KissAnime is having problems right now lol

    Please keep links of where to watch to PMs. I hate to be that guy, but anime sites like that are at BEST in a gray area, usually it's straight out illegal.

    CR is legal because of the way they handle it, but it's usually frowned upon in the anime sub watching community for some of their practices, that said, it's still quite legal and I have no interest in restricting anyone's ability to say anything more than is necessary to not get the website in trouble. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

    Kissanime down for almost a month estimated is killer. Most of the other websites have half of what I'm watching atm, and they're either 4 different 360P videos or one with 8 advertisements a page and subscriptions needed.

    You tried REDACTED yet? Has one advertisement for 30 seconds before you start each episode, and nothing else (and if you have adblock installed you don't even get the ad, just the 30-second wait). Quality is also pretty good, too. You do need to create an account on the site, but it's entirely free and quite easy to do so. Would highly recommend.

    The site that Mazey recommend called REDACTED works pretty well for me, it definitely doesn't have everything (GunBuster for example) but most videos are HD and if then only has a 30 seconds ad at the beginning of the video.

    I'll let the words to Kiss stay since it's dead anyway, but please don't link or specifically name websites that do illegal things like host anime without express consent from the creator/publisher.

    I don't care if you do this in PM, but done publically like this I'm sure can be picked up by spiders, and potentially cause issues for the forums, so if I see it it'll be removed. Given 2 warnings of such in this thread so far, if I see it again here I might just start with warnings.

    If you want to make a Conversation about it, please do, but just, you know, don't post it directly in here. If it's not me who cleans these links, chances are it'd be a warning instead so :P

    My bad, didn't think enough to realize it might be an issue. I'll be more careful in the future.
