Sounds like he has a real life. I respect that. My need for anime is not worth anyone ruining their life, and ripping CR isn't going to look good on any job application.
Let's start with your delusion that anyone asked you for your advice about anything. That could only have been the voices in your head. There's probably a medication for that.
Let's then move on to your loose grip on facts and opinions. By the way, what was your comment about someone at Erai living a good life on the donations? Sounds like plain snake venom to me. You need to quit listening to those voices in your head.
So someone is worried about Erai, and you think you answered it by saying they are unreliable? That's lame. Thanks for some actual info afterwards, if true.
Except I did in fact answer it. It helps if you can comprehend English I suppose.
The question asked was why Erai hasn't been releasing anything here. The answer is simply Erai is unreliable and goes days or even weeks at a time without uploads and people have to wait for them to return to batch things.
I've spoken to some of Erai staff. They've said the owner is MIA and the bot crashed. Until he returns to revive the bot, no new releases.
Erai isn't a fansub group, it's an automated ripping group aside from the v2/v1 FUNimation stuff they decide to do some minimal TS on, and they make so much on donations the owner could live comfortably without working.
As for the not forcing it bit, some groups do. DeadFish, a re-encode group for hardsubs, for example will stop releasing entirely until goals are hit else they might just encode the episode upside down; which they've done a couple dozen times now through the years... Erai stopped getting donations a while back and took a few weeks break as a result as well.
In any case, we've got 2 automated rip groups: Erai and SubsPlease. One begs for donations, their release schedule is unreliable, and their subtitles often have issues from omissions in the header. The other says they'll never rely on donations as they're retired and money is no issue to them, their release schedule is consistent as all episodes have consistency been out within a few minutes of simulcast with no random delays and no several day lapse in releases, and the subtitles are consistent across all simulcast services ripped and without the missing header information of the subs.
So seems like an easy choice to me. After all this comment roll was started because of the inconsistent release pattern of Erai due to unreliability.
Sounding a bit hostile there mate, I don't follow any particular group, but I've watched plenty of shows with the Erai tag on the file, and I've never had a demand for donations. As far as I can tell most sub groups do this for kicks, and wit hout them we'd be lost. I think its fair enough that users encourage each other to chip in to help fund servers and so on. Theres no harm in it, and no one is actually forcing you to help out.
Erai do what they do, and IMO they should just stick to that, theres no need for one group to take all the pressure after horribles absence. Plenty of groups around to share the load.
I did hear that they had seen some (hopefully minor) intimidation tactics, their donation accounts being whackamoled and so on - When you're getting flak its a sign your over the target - There are evil fuckers out there that wanna stop our access to our anime, copyright assholes, and just plain assholes. If you wanna help drop some donation bucks on some subgroups , servers don't pay for themselves, and some groups, including erai do some DDL options
Haven't seen many {erai-raws] releases on here in the last few days, anyone have any info on this? I'm probably being overanxious, but with HS taking a backseat I'm a bit worried about our subbers
Hi admin, I don't know if there were some issues but some of the releases from Hakata Ramen have been skipped from being fetched from TokyoTosho. Were there any issues with the torrent or something happened with the site?
Thanks for the info. It looks like the provider's server is glitching a bit (giving invalid NNTP responses). I've added some workaround and re-enabled stuck uploads to retry. Will keep an eye on whether it works.
I have noticed that since a couple of days there are some missing NZB on the site. I checked on the newsgroup directly the files are uploaded, but without any PAR and the CRC / MD5 don't match so the file was apparently corrupted during upload(For example : [SubsPlease] D4DJ First Mix - 04 (1080p) [DD7084F0].mkv). I don't know if it's linked to the current extra load or if there is some issue / timeout with the NZB script.
For shows such an archive already exists called Usenet. AT uploads everything they process to it and downloads are available for years. You can get an account to access it at https://xsusenet.com/
I remember years ago you could look for a rare show, and after a half hour or so of 'google-fu' you'd find some blogger that has a link to a fansub, uploaded years before, and you'd click it and it'd still be available. It'd take an hour to download at something like 50kbv/sec, but it'd be there. Nowadays you click a link for a show that was uploaded 3 months ago and its already hooked. "We're sorry but the file you're looking for is no longer available..." Maybe we could somehow croiwdsoure serverspace for a massive library to ensure the largest possible collecxtion of our anime, especially the rare stuff, is always available.
Okay, scrap that. Turns out I'm lazy, and pulling filename info is more effort than I can be bothered with, so you can have the source links instead (colouring will depend on your RSS client).
Thanks for the suggestion. In general, a host is added if it's popular enough amongst users here. Users can respond here on what they think of the file hosts. See also "Will Anime Tosho support uploading to [some file host]?" on the FAQs page.
If you're willing to do the work, you can grab a copy of the attachments and attachment files DB dump. The page tells you how to retrieve the actual files, one by one, based on ID. The collection starts from 2014-04-03 and should contain most releases. Current total size is around 76GB.
If it's only got one file, I can add the filename. Personally feel a little iffy over the source info - mostly trying to keep the RSS stuff minimal. Maybe I'll consider some URL parameter which will display more file info, like on the /view/ pages. Hopefully the filename is sufficient for your needs.
My name is Ahmed. I'm one of the team well-known filehost Turbobit.net and Hitfile.net. We would like to cooperate with you, so i would like to ask you about the conditions and the cost to become one of the filehost on your site or ,even better, the unique filehost on your site. ecurity: Our team, as well as the storage, is distributed worldwide.
Would it be possible to get a dump of all subtitle files for all torrents on Anime Tosho? I'm considering putting together a corpus of anime subtitles.
Do you mean that you're hitting 503 errors when doing searches? If so, could you post the IP of the server (use this if you don't want it to be publicly shown)? Thanks.

Can I buy/donate for a golden api key? I use a seedbox on a shared host and am ip limited sometimes. I believe there are 100 people on the IP per server (ultraseedbox). Sometimes I can't use sonarr to search at all for 12 hours+
Thanks for the feedback. The filters shown on the main page aren't saved anywhere in the current design. You might be able to work around it by bookmarking the link with the filters applied.
