No, it's unrelated. As above commenter points out, the feed is running in degraded mode due to the server running out of bandwidth. Search queries (those with 'q' parameter) are likely affected the most.
It should be back to normal in 2-3 days.

Thanks for raising the issue and sorry for the inconvenience.

From the top of AT main page:
"8th Feb 2026: The storage/feed/API server is quickly approaching its bandwidth quota (which resets in a week). <...> (some requests will fail) to conserve bandwidth until the quota resets."

Hello I'm seeing a lot of error 500 responses when trying to query the feed, for example:
https://animetosho.torrentbay.st/s__feed/json?eid=2...=1&q=1080p
will sometimes return

Internal error
Failed to connect to search server.

is this expected with the upcoming shutdowns?

But seriously, if anyone manages to see about creating a "successor" after this site's operations ceases torrent fetching/processing in May, *please* let all of us know. As I said earlier, I've been using this site to get the Aikatsu and Precure episodes in question when they post especially. IMHO, a resource like this is still badly needed.

Sorry AT doesn't sell "popunder ads".

Your site is not ready, create pages, blogs, media, about, terms, contact us etc., so that it can be trusted.

Hi!
We run an advertising network, adsson.com and are interested in buying popunder ads from your site. Could you please share your rates and available GEOs?
Thanks, Luka

Guess my anime watching days are numbered. Time to take up being a boozehound again. Take what you can.. Give nothing back! *clink mugs*

Hi, there are some warez sites that i use to download full seasons animes in BD.
There is always a option.

Thanks Admin for spoiling us rotten for so long.

It's going to be a pain to find new anime and enjoy it in the future.
For non torrent downloads or direct net free streaming it's back to 720p or worse, good sites skipping anime they don't like, waiting  a week or more for new episodes, tags, pay only or throttled download links and sources being shut down constantly by the efforts of pay to view sites.

Those who have experienced free anime enjoyment almost exclusively thru Anime Tosho  are in for quite an unpleasant time once things end here.

Thanks again for providing one of the greatest of all time anime sites ever.
