More kids trashing animenow? Lol.

These guys will never get a life. They don't provide logical arguments or coherent points. Every so often we'll get someone like that on here. THOSE guys.

Probably too scared to diss animenow on their site.

So you've moved this argument from Animenow having crappy encodes to free speech? Also, nice ad hominem there.

You can continue to hate on a group's encodes as a part of your free speech, but by the same token, other people also have the right to disagree or voice opinions against your own.

Free speech includes speaking freely about whatever you like or dislike.No loophole needed ,or is that a bit hard for you to comprehend.

awesome! please keep using it without zipping files :)

You like davvas too?
They're such a good host in my opinion, once you're registered files never delete and 500kb/s is better than a lot of others for anon downloads.

By that logic everything here https://animetosho.torrentbay.st/about are just "statements" as well. "Upload regulations? Naw, those are just statements from the admin."

Looks like you're trying very hard to find a loophole that justifies bashing a group under the guise of free speech or something.

Not really rules ,more statements from the admin.The first 3 are about the upload system and the last is a general suggestion >not a rule.

Below comments box

Please be aware of the following before commenting:
-Expired links do NOT get reuploaded as files are deleted after we process them
-Uploads are NOT instant, so please wait for them to be processed
-The entire uploading process is done by a bot which does NOT read any comments, so asking for links will have no effect on when they show up
---------->Critical comments are welcome, however note that statements such as "X is crap" or "Y sucks" are NOT criticisms and aren't useful to anyone. Please back such statements up with reasoning to be both informative and demonstrate that you aren't just some whiney kid.<----------

This site has no rules apart from the script/upload regulations https://animetosho.torrentbay.st/about.Where are you getting these rules from?.At the end of the day you can learn to act more mature and ignore it or keep whinging and making up rules that don't exist.Not everything in life has a reason or is fair so don't always expect one because it won't happen.

Yes and no. If there is a problem with the encoding, then someone should state what the problem is so other people unaware don`t waste bandwith & time on downloading something they are only going to delete and have to reget from some other sub group. That is if the problem is an issue for them.

Share the love & keep... keep... watching?

The point is that if someone thinks something is shit, then they need to say why! It is a rule of this site. They opened the door to all this because they didn`t include a reason. End of story.

this is not the right place to cry for their encodes. If you have problem, go to their site! Its already indicated their site!
A-Tosho is just a host just fetching what they can see in nyaa and tokyotosho..either it contains virus or not, horrible encodes or not as long as Eng Sub categories,,Problem? go to the original source!

Stop taking Anime so serious as well and learn to let people have a say without having to start a huge load of arguments & flaming.If somone thinks it's shit ,so what?They're  entitled too.Take the same advice you all keep giving about the links for the comments,if you don't like them the comments ignore them and it will save having childish squabbles and embarrassing yourself .

"Would you describe that useless comments or whiny ?"
Yes I would since the top post DID NOT include what the problems with the mkv were.
"Well this was shit, can't AnimeNOW get anything right? Why doesn't he just quit already?"
He/she did not state any facts at all, so I would conceder that whiney, in fact anyone would.

"It is more just ignorance on your part due lack of knowledge."
No. We all know about AnimeNow and thier encoding. We just go else where to get our stuff, at least I do.

Share the love & get a grip.

Let me add my 2 cents worth so some anonymous person can bash what I think.

In my opinion I think adding entertainment value can be a good thing as long as it doesn’t adversely effect the story and/or the characters personality. The creators had an intent and I don’t think anybody has the right to change that intent. Adding/changing because of culture differences as long as it isn’t changing the intent that the original creators wanted is OK (This includes polishing a translation). Good example of going too far would be Commie with “Girls & Panzer.”

I would also like to see this AnimeNow bashing stop. If you don’t like their encoding just don’t DL it, simple.

Share the love & keep watching.

Well some people like yourself and zooby enjoy anything that is free ,while others do not.It is personal preference and based on having enough video encoding knowledge to be able to spot the issues [which you clearly do not].As for AnimeNOW releases ,just check nyaa comments on his torrents for plenty of examples.Such as re-encoding raws to worse quality,encoding video to the wrong aspect ratio,v2ing 2 minute ovas,poorly editing subtitles to the point that they are ineligible ,verbally attacking people that point out said flaws and more.Would you describe that useless comments or whiny ?.It is more just ignorance on your part due lack of knowledge.

Does this guy just always pretend to be two people, or does he actually have multiple personality disorder?  The world may never care...

It's been a quiet revolution, but gg has changed the world of fansub.  They decided to put a priority on entertainment over literal translations when needed.  And other fansubs have slowly followed that move.  For example, look at utw versus gg on the recent 8th Grader Syndrome anime.  Compare the early episodes where there are some big differences in their versions to the later ones which are more similar.  

Navel treaties may need literal translations, but for anime the entertainment argument is irresistible -within some bounds.  The problem now is that it's hard to say what those bounds should be.

CAPS LOCK FOR THE WIN.

zooby is right on target.  And this person who wants less free anime choices for everyone (strange person that you are) please note Admin's minimal guidelines on comments:

"Critical comments are welcome, however note that statements such as "X is crap" or "Y sucks" are NOT criticisms and aren't useful to anyone. Please back such statements up with reasoning to be both informative and demonstrate that you aren't just some whiney kid."

Got that, whiney kid?  And Admin DOES own this site.

Hey, I don't appreciate you adding gg to the "suck" group. They are the reason why Baka-Test was funny. Sure, they had some over the top lines in it, but if they didn't subbed it we would only be getting dull subs from Mochi.

Do you own this site zooby and are adding posting rules ?.Last time i checked the FAQ anyone could post what they liked without being bossed around .

Don't like his encoding, then don't get his encodes. Some haters also want to get groups to stop subbing because they "suck". Commie, GG, and Hadena keep going though. You'd have more success at attempting to hurt the guy's feelings by emailing him directly or posting directly on his site rather than a site that just provides DDLs.

Then again, it would be more beneficial to you to just ignore "crap" encodes and just go about your daily routine. Unless of course, it's part of your life to put down a person/groups efforts. Whatever floats your boat.

Agreed,he is horrible at encoding .He should have realised that he's not doing a good job by now and quit.

Don't like it? Don't get it.

Well this was shit, can't AnimeNOW get anything right? Why doesn't he just quit already?
