Most of the seasonal anime has ended this week. There's a lot of great work around like Re;Zero (which continued until the next season), Boku no Hero Academia, Flying Witch, Tanaka-Kun, Kiznaiver, Space Luluco, Kabaneri, Pan de Peace and then some titles that I taken a lot of interest to during broadcast. Then, we also got seasonal flop that hated by the general community like Kumamiko, Big Order, Mayoiga and then some, which I don't have anything to say to because it's pointless to hate on entertainment and it's better to avoif the one you dislike and heading for your preference instead. Anyonr got a favorite anime this season?
I think AT is more about getting and watching anime rather than commentary, hence the quiet.
I think it helps to narrow down what you're interested in, if it is anything in particular. For example, AK-Subs is a group that did a version of Girls und Panzer and are all about military manga and anime, with lots going on last time I looked.
If you have an interest in current releases, you might want to go to the fansub sites and participate in the comments. FFF, for example. Or maybe get involved in the work and exposed to IRC channel chat (such as it is).
If you're interested in light general come and go chatter, HorribleSubs has a chat feature that ranges over all sorts of topics.
If there is any anime community that isn't cancerous (most of the time any way), AnimeTosho is certainly the site. I really like how peaceful this place can get, though maybe too quiet sometimes too.
The site works the same on a laptop and an android device, both connected via the same router as my PC.
Curl results: http://i.imgur.com/yRbsI3Z.png - it may be worth mentioning that the latter command gives me the same error even now, when I can access the site.
Also, during the "down time" when I'm refreshing the page, once in a while it does load partially (no menu, only a few items on the downloads list), though it takes a couple of minutes.
Now I realized I have yet to try the most basic thing. Next time I'm going to restart my router.
One more thing. I'm not sure if this is of any importance, but I have a dynamic IP.
Thanks for the results. It's rather interesting - connectivity to the server is fine (ping works), however TCP connections aren't getting established - likely being dropped by something in the middle. Do you have any other devices you could try on the same connection?
Otherwise this may be difficult to diagnose. It may be interesting to see what works and what doesn't, but it probably won't help. Only other thing I can think of to test is connectivity to a non-standard TCP port, and one with no service listening:
When you see it, try pressing Ctrl+F5. Unfortunately there was an issue around then where the server's clock jumped forward 4 months, which means that some pages may be cached until September/October.
The problem came back back yesterday. I welcomed it like an old friend. Like I mentioned in a reply above, the day before yesterday it worked fine for no apparent reason.
If things worked after accessing your router, that's interesting. You might want to try accessing your router again the next time the problem shows up. (I don't know why just accessing it would help, but I usually settle for whats instead of whys.)
Or maybe this problem is more occasional and less consistent than I was thinking it was.
Glad it worked. Actually, you always need all parts, regardless of there being a password. The only exception is for non-7z wrapped archives, if the hosts have the same number of parts.
Thanks I got it working once the other part was downloaded. I only needed one of the 2 parts. So thats all I got to not waste bandwith on AT's side. Forgot that if there's a password. all parts are required to open the zip.
It seems to work fine here. Have you downloaded both parts and placed them in the same folder?
If so, here's the MD5 hashes of the parts, which you can use for verification: 0136541406838201062c01a93629d40a b42374c0dc3d6d14.7z.001 fd568eedfd97f3275842928220fcc953 b42374c0dc3d6d14.7z.002
The DIRECT Part 1 File on [ https://animetosho.org/file/cbm-_neon_...17_.263165 ] Is returning "unsupported error" when trying to open it. Downloaded it twice to be sure. Also I'm wondering if it's possible to repair the Direct Files? Other than this everything is great as always TY
Unfortunately, there's nothing in my list of blocked URLs/IPs/keywords.
Also, I was going to try what the admin had suggested in the reply below, but as if out of spite the website worked fine the whole day yesterday. I'll try using that curl program when it's back to normal (or rather back to abnormal).
It's weird, though. Sometimes it works, sometimes it won't. Correct me if I'm wrong but I noticed that the file's URL change after some time passed. If this is true, then this might be the cause for my problem.
Your results show no connectivity issues, interestingly enough. Whilst the page is loading, do you see parts of the page and/or the title in the tab/window? Maybe try another browser?
Thanks for the info. If you're willing to do some diagnostics, could you try these commands, posting the output of each, whilst you're unable to reach the site? You'll need the cURL utility: https://curl.haxx.se/download.html#Win32 (select one with SSL included)
Thanks for reporting it. We'll see if anyone else reports a similar problem. I'm pretty sure there's nothing we can change here that's going to make a difference.
(If you want to try something, log in as adminitrator to your house router/modem and see if there's anything unusual. Mine allows sites to be blocked during specific hours based on URL or keywords like 'anime'. And one of my routers recently created random goofy changes after a local power outage.)
Yeah, I'm browsing at home. And like I said, animetosho is the only site that works this way.
Well, there's really no point in you guys wasting your time over this, unless it could be resolved effortlessly. Even if not for the mirror, I'd just download my anime before evening, when the site still works. I thought I should report this just in case.
The specifics of the daily timing make me wonder about something like parental controls or other policies specific to your location or ISP provider. You're not in school housing or something like that, I presume?
Anyways, I can't think of anything else, given the tracert. admin might have more ideas. The mirror site amounts to a solution for now. Otherwise, whatever happened to create this situation may un-happen eventually.
(P.S. If the situation ever becomes worse and you can't get here or to the mirror at all, the last resort is a proxy like: https://1freeproxyserver.com/ )
