Inside the database-dump.7z file, look for arcscrape.sql. The data can be found in the nyaasi_* tables.

hi admin, thanks for everything again, just curious, on the data page it mentions that the nyaasi_archives are torrent files only, is the data used for the nyaa cache pages provided anywhere?

I'm sure most people are here because they want anime downloads/torrents, not streams.
Thank you for this.

It stands for "Definitely Rental Material", and it's the polite way for companies to say "You will own nothing and we'll be happy". It was co-developed by Satan and Lucifer in San Francisco.

DRM required
I know AT stopped, but uploaders are still functioning.
Can I make a request for fetch this one?

After HorribleSubs closed, my anime life is wholly dependent on AT.
Thank you very much for wonderful service for years.
I’ve had audio sync issues too. I’ve played it via Jellyfin on the fire stick and also via Infuse on an iPhone. No matter what I try to I can’t sync it that well.

This a new website for streaming anime.
The fact the last torrent fetched here is Lupin is inspirational.

I really hope they do open registration again
I wasn't asking for registrations to be open, I meant that the message text could be updated to reflect the reality. For example, instead of "temporarily unavailable", make it "closed for the foreseeable future" and ideally provide an explanation.
I can't imagine that'd take longer than a few minutes to do.

I don't know what proxies are blocked
A few years ago, they started trying to block proxy sites (like https://nyaa.land/ today) and put a message out that they were stopping malware. I can't find any archive of the message, but I made a rant on it back then if you want to search around that date.
There's still a bunch of working Nyaa proxies out there, so they either lost interest in their self-proclaimed virtuous activity fairly quickly, or they're just not doing a particularly good job of it. Or, as I pointed out back then, "malware" is just a convenient excuse and they don't care about being transparent.

I think nyaa owners appreciate the value and need for the site
That's one interpretation. Another could be that they enjoy the revenue they get from ads on the sukebei site. Actually if you care about site longevity, the latter is probably preferrable - money is a powerful motivator whilst appreciation is often less reliable and dries up over time.

It's similar reasons let's say you're now leaving instead of passing down the torch to someone you trusted.
I don't see the two as the same at all, but even if you did, there's nothing "opsec" about it.
The problem with running this site isn't about trust, it's complexity. In fact, I've "put out the torch" (released code, data and setup instructions) so that anyone can take it, so arguably I'm trusting anyone interested enough.

I could understand your point more if it was about the Nyaa owners handing over the site to someone else, but we're only talking about mods here.

letting in new people means trusting them
Even though I don't have this perspective, I can understand it. However I'd argue that learning to trust others is the duty of an owner of such a site. Failing this, the site is doomed to decline over time.
But as you say, it's just easier to be apathetic, hence my concern of the owners not caring.

I don't know why he did what he did, but it was strange
We can only speculate on why, but I don't think it's that important.
What's matters more, in my opinion, is the how, which in this case, was a sudden disappearance. Or perhaps, knowing why the owner chose to leave the way they did (not "why the shutdown").

Your theory about being pressured is interesting, but doesn't explain the lack of any warning or explanation.

In my opinion, there's a much more obvious possibility - the owner simply didn't care. If you don't care about the users, then you wouldn't care to give anyone a warning or explanation.

if an alternative goes down, you still lose content
You're correct - I conflated two things, although not entirely incorrectly.
Imagine if we had a Nyaa.si alternative, with similar levels of user traffic. Releasers could upload to both sites, or if they couldn't be bothered, someone would just repost uploads on one to the other index. If one of the sites disappeared, the other would mostly have the same content (although not identical).

Alternatives do however provide options. If one site does something unpopular, people can flock to the other. Without an alternative, everyone is stuck with the whims of the "monopoly" owner.

I'm actually not that worried about losing content due to a site disappearing. You can largely solve it simplying by scraping the site periodically, which is relatively easy to do. An individual can automate this without too much effort (I did it after all), so if that's your concern, you yourself can deal with it (or convince just one other person to do it).
On the other hand, solving the closed registrations issue, which discourages newcomers, is much harder. I don't see it as something that can be solved by a motivated individual alone.

regular db dumps for this reason, but don't think they have in any recent years.
Not just recent years, I don't recall them ever providing them. To be fair, it's rare for a site to provide DB dumps, so it's not like Nyaa is out of place here.

the bus factor is real
I feel you. Would you feel better if there wasn't so much placed on your shoulders?

archiving of the original NT was very prudent
I wouldn't call it prudent given the intent wasn't to archive (and I didn't save stuff like user info). It was just luck that I happened to be experimenting with processing all NyaaTorrents categories.

Another option

airing only

(Make sure you select the Ouo shortner though, as the others suck.)

@admin It would be great if the site is made available in the Internet Archive's Wayback Machine; perhaps Archiveteam (wiki.archiveteam.org) could help.

I'm looking at the torrent tracker listing. DHT is enabled.

8 active trackers are enabled. It looks like 1 seeder, which I'm assuming is the actually server. Looks like 32 peers.

As for Archive.org, I haven't uploaded anything to archive.org but if I were to do so, I would probably try to upload the data as is. Otherwise I see significant renaming required.

That and making an archive.org mirror later might be nice too.

Can someone post the torrent to the usual places (nyaa and wherever else), so that the mirror lasts longer than "just a few days"? 1.1TB sometimes hard to find on short notice, but I suppose if you skip screenshot's it's not as bad.

Thanks admin. You are awesome. I greatly appreciate the decade and a half of amazing content. I used p2p in the 90s and torrents in the early 2000s until file hosting sites were created and while some sites, warez, media etc. had some anime here and there uploaded to file hosters you were the first to implement an anime file site fully dedicated to file hosters (free and premium) which opened the door to the world of anime to a lot more people.

Whether your decision to close shop was due to copyright or you've decided that the site doesnt fit your life anymore I thank you for all the time, effort, money, and communication you've invested making this site great. I wish you well and good fortune with your future endeavors. LIVE LONG AND PROSPER!

It would be nice if you thought up a tag/handle for us to remember for your contributions as opposed to the fully forgettable common tag used on millions of sites 'the admin', but if you want to leave the scene like a ghost thats ok too.

It looks like the "guy" behind it call it quits, they ask you to visit https://amenzb.moe/ instead
However, this is just speculation on my part, I could be wrong tho.
