Nyaa is back up for now.

We're fighting to stop FCC & Internet providers from destroying 'Net Neutrality'. The Internet is our future. Join us.

An Open Internet Is Essential to a Free Internet: Net Neutrality Should Matter To Everyone

Hate that little spinning wheel? Without net neutrality, you'd have to get used to it.

Right now the FCC is considering a set of rules that would allow Internet providers to offer faster access to some websites that can afford to pay. We need to stop them.

Nyaa came back online for a moment. site might be up soon :)

Indeed, nyaa is still under attack actually

Maybe you can avoid duplicates comparing the torrent hash? That would fix the issue if it were possble, wont work for re packs but thats just like now

That means they are still unde ddos, might be a good sign actually, it is motigating I guess, well at least this denies the conspiracy theory, good luck to nyaa

I suppose it could be.
It was more to complement the loss of Nyaa, and not rely explicitly on (the helpful) others posting everything to TT as well.

It's not really high on my priority list, as I expect Nyaa to fix their short term issues, but it could be something to think about long term.

I just got a CloudFlare page at Nyaa saying try again in 5 minutes.

Random luck or Nyaa getting back up?

Would adding new sources just be a precaution against also losing TT in the future?

I haven't noticed that we've been missing any content without Nyaa?

+1

ask snowfag/daiz and stop speculating trash

I thought Shana Project just scrapes from TokyoTosho and Nyaa?

Deadfrog - their categories don't marry up nicely with those of Nyaa/TokyoTosho unfortunately.

I'm considering Anirena and Anime-Index as additional sources. Adding new sources does pose some problems, such as de-duplication (which doesn't really have any nice solution) etc, so can take time to implement.
Other source suggestions are welcome. Ideally ones with decent activity and an English anime category (this rules out places like Kickass, for example).

Clearly you are just representing your own interests.  Some people want/need mini-mkv or hardsubs.  You don't, so you want them thrown out.

That's not an enlightened attitude.

btw, the mini's and the hardsubbed  files are the smallest files, not the bandwidth problem

Tibb is the subject of conspiracy theories?!  Congratulations, Tibb!  You're bigger than Nyaa now!

You can be our new Nyaa!

Blue pages!!!!  --I need Blue Pages!!!!

I agree with you, It's happening with me too but from yesterday , unlike you The site won't load at all for me.
I think someone is abusing the server by eating most of the server's speed/ bandwidth because Someone uploaded 5-6 crayon shin-chan movie torrents from bakabt to tokyotosho so that animetosho & yuki can fetch it & provide ddl links, & it might be possible that users with insanely high speeds are abusing the server by downloading many big files at once.
I'm from Bangladesh, my net is slow, My maximum bandwidth is 50 kbits/sec. So it sucks being not able to download at all  :(

Tibb-san
I really appreciate Animetosho's & your hardwork to help many people with Download links.
Here are some feedback/ suggestion to make Yuki even better.
I think torrents of Mini Encodes, Spammy re-encodes such as .mp5 files, files from [KaMi],[AE], [salvos], [gxs], M@nI, jacobswaggedup, Diogo4D, [KoTuWa] etc.
ungrateful spammy re-encoders like [NoobSubs] who make money by putting ads on their site & ask for donations just for re-encoding the work they din't did, Retaggers who reupload horriblesubs rips as their own - [CR], awi.etc
& many misleading (foreign translated),
I don't remember many group/ file names,  but many italian, spanish, french. etc language subbed files are being fetched by yuki & animetosho. i.e : salvos, Diogo4D. etc should be banned/ skipped from fetching to yuki.
I think Downloads should be limited to 1 file at once per user.
Stats says currently there 471 folders and 2825 files, 1.03 TB in total, I think that files from the above mentioned spam groups which are currently at yuki should be removed.
It's my opinion though.
I'm Sorry if I said something wrong or rude.

It can't be about increasing popularity. Nyaa is already well-known as it is. Newfags don't even know about TT and only download stuff from nyaa.

Tibb, Yuki has became really slow from 2-3 days, site takes 4mins to load & when I try to download a file it won't start download at all. :(

Have you tried this site for manga:

http://manga.animea.net/

Get/read it from scanlator website.

I just read online and wait for the next chapter :D

Here https://mobile.twitter.com/NyaaComment...6426938368 they were attacked, but isnt it taking too long? I hear HS are on the same isp, and they're back online already

Before the site went offline I read someone claimed to have hacked the site and they also announced to start a ddos attack, that comment is on twitter in the "nyaa chat txt" account

I dunno if Nyaa's is getting DDoS attacked again or not.

But there not staying offline to increase there popularity seeing how most groups uses nyaa's.

Nyaa links still shows up, i didn't see anything diff.

Clicked on "hate this site" link... how could i hate this site?

I came here in early days of the site and thought, this site won't survive long. Especially with all seeding, leeching, bandwidth issues and server managing stuff. And no ads at all. Seriously, i have no words.  Just want to say. Thank you admin for keeping this online for so long.

Now that MangaTraders & Nyaa is down. My manga source is gone. I wonder if it's possible to make a similar site or a sub-domain on this site to get latest english translated manga releases?

I'm using andchat becase my pc is brken so I'm on android for now, but is nyaa really going to stay offline to  incrase popularity? even torrentfreak talked about them, but staying offline for so long.. I dunno what to think -.-

What client are you using for irc?

Really? I've been  searching any info about nyaa for hours, cant believe it's a joke, underwater and commie have no other sites  for releases besides nyaa, irc isnt even working for me..

At least that's a *new* conspiracy theory...

Add support for Shanaproject.com/deadfrog.me since Nyaa.se admin thinks it's funny to make the website down to increase popularity (ask anyone on the #HS IRC)

Well they might not be wiped completely then, but yesterday simply typing Nyaa.se and a show name would bring up pages of torrents for that show, now there are no Nyaa torrent urls in those results at all.

I found plenty of Nyaa URLs still on Google (try searching for site:nyaa.se inurl:torrentinfo).
Perhaps Google down ranks websites which are unresponsive.

Google is fairly transparent with its takedowns - if you wish, you can do a search at Chilling Effects to see what the last nyaa.se takedown was.

All Nyaa URL's (except the homepage) have been wiped from google now, it suggests someone a little more powerful than a couple of disgruntled anime haters are actually behind all this DDOS business and recent downtime.

All of them should be gone now.

Yuki admin...
Why the folders you delete still there with nothing inside, I think they move to new date when you delete them, I mean why not removing the folder too, the list is getting bigger :P

the rest of 18% are small groups or not popular enough to not afford a XDCC bot :p

Thanks for the catch.  It was at the top of their news blog column when I saw it.  

The seasonality probably reflects school terms, if anything.

So the Nyaa server was the only target?  That changes the complexion of things.

Easy to miss, but that's a post from 2013. Even more confusing that it got bumped recently.
Otherwise, the similarity in dates is probably just a coincidence.

Do you mean today or the first time?  MAL's site administrator said they were DDoSed on Sept 4 (concurrent with Nyaa's first attack), that MAL did lots to deal with the attack, and asked the DDoS attacker to open a dialogue with them:

http://myanimelist.net/forum/?topicid=658633

MAL never got DDoS attack some mod's account got hacked which from what I heard is normal.

Commie is also down -same server.

TT is up, Horrible is up (we believe they moved off the Nyaa server during the last outage), MAL is up.

No conclusions to draw, and no specific info yet (that I've seen).

It could be maintenance or fine-tuning recent changes.

=================
15:40

Length of time and comments elsewhere suggest this is another DDoS attack.

TT has been running slow, but not slower now than a few hours ago.
--------------------
For those interested in the first DDoS attack on Nyaa, there is an article at a well-known torrent website:

http://torrentfreak.com/anti-piracy-ou...es-140904/

They explore some possibilities, but in brief conclude: "...it seems likely that someone who doesn’t appreciate unofficial anime sites operating smoothly is behind the attack. Who that might be will remain a mystery, at least for now."

Nyaa is down again. :(

Oh okay.
The sequence should be fairly similar, except for items that were uploaded during the downtime to TokyoTosho, and the script detected it as a duplicate.

Just the sequence of the listing here and nyaa doesn't match when it just came back up as all the groups started adding releases that were backdated to nyaa's downtime which resulted in a slight confusion. No issues now.

@Tibb - can you delete the empty folders in yukinon?

just saying Hi!

82% ,)

I'm not sure I understand what you mean?
Are there missing entries or similar?
