Can someone help? can't seem to access the site normally on a browser. It was working fine before. Had to use Tor to access it.

I don't know how far (network wise) you are from the server, but it seems like the issue may be closer to your ISP. Do you know whether your ISP is filtering traffic or having peering issues?

One thing you can try:
1. Visit http://lg.vstoike.ru/
2. Try doing a tracert to the Test IPv4 listed there, post similar details to above
3. Get your own IP (you can use something like icanhazip.com) or an upstream IP obtained from traceroute, and perform a traceroute from that webpage (paste your IP into the Network Tests box, and select 'traceroute') and post similar details

If there are more hops in the server -> you route (step 3 above), that likely suggests that requests are being dropped by your ISP or one of its upstream providers.

Thank you very much for the response!

Here's what I got:
Step 2: (Tracert to the Test IPv4. This is using cmd, right?)
1     2 ms     2 ms     1 ms  
  2     *       24 ms    33 ms  
  3    68 ms    48 ms    43 ms  
  4   395 ms    29 ms    23 ms  
  5  1337 ms    24 ms    26 ms  
  6    52 ms    22 ms    23 ms
  7   180 ms   231 ms   222 ms  
  8   230 ms   297 ms   306 ms  
  9   328 ms   326 ms   326 ms

11    142.934 ms  142.048 ms  142.079 ms

(I'm not sure which to leave out from step 3, sorry!)

That's interesting. I suspect that it's an issue on your ISP's side or similar. This is because your own route stops after 5 hops but the others go further. If that is the case, there's probably not much I can do unfortunately.

Can you try doing a traceroute to 185.22.172.173 as well? If you have IPv6, you can try 2a00:1838:20:2::2c65:425e as well.

Would be nice if each torrent had a nice list of trackers that you could copy. You can do that now but you get some other numbers that you don't need, just a small suggestion. :)
16/01/2018 17:04 — Anonymous
can't load the magnet URI?
17/01/2018 07:02 — admin
Thanks for the suggestion.
If you have something like MS Excel, you could copy+paste the data there and just copy the first column to get a list of trackers.
Alternatively you could download the torrent and copy the list out from there.
(I'm a little apprehensive over increasing the complexity of that part)

@00sas If you are still active can you please reupload all the episodes of INUYASHA on any other hosting site like media fire or openload.
Thanks

How about uploading it in such a way so that only animetosho bot can fetch it and upload it to different sites with ddl.
Having ddl, it can last for long time.
I hope admin can also help in this
19/01/2018 10:26 — admin
Unfortunately the AT bot isn't really designed to process arbitrary requests like that. You can ask and someone may upload the files themselves however.

Use free usenet. Things lasts longer there. Unless you can find ed2k/SHARE equivalence.

Please add an option to hide skipped torrents/releases on search page.
25/01/2018 03:12 — Anonymous
and sorting by size
25/01/2018 06:50 — admin
Thanks for the suggestion. Hiding skipped releases is a little tricky unfortunately - hopefully there aren't that many though, so you can eyeball past the skipped entries based on color?
You can sort by size though. Above the listing there's two dropdowns, the second one containing sort options.

It's not in the FAQ and I searched the last ±10 pages from the comments: what's the reasoning behind allowing only English subs? It's quite strange because releases that include English and other languages are allowed.
If the reasoning is that it increases too much the number of entries to be fetched how about making restrictions? Don't mirror the files (which seems is the most resource intensive operation here) but still do other functions like listing, taking screenshots and extract subs. Or make it work like skipped releases, just list those releases and allow requests in comments.
One thing I found strange is that some non-english fansubs posted torrents it in the English category, sometimes to get more seeders, sometimes as a mistake, then got listed here. Because of that I first trought they are allowed here.
Also, not related with the above, I got a bit worried when I found there is a MD5 based captcha validation here: isn't it insecure? MD5 is pretty fast to crack, so one can just try to crack it like a password. Isn't better to do it using an AJAX call?

You are free to start your own site instead of bitching about free service.
01/02/2018 01:01 — admin
Thanks for the question!

The notion of processing files without doing any uploading (well, beyond seeding the torrents back) has occurred to me in the past. What categories were you interested in mostly? The non-English anime categories?
A few things:
- disk I/O can be costly and torrents aren't exactly disk friendly. AT's updates run on fairly low end servers, almost always with just a single disk, and not a lot of RAM to cache around it, so there isn't much I/O capacity available. The current updates server is rather overpowered though, so this isn't an issue at the moment (but I may decide to move to a weaker server to save costs in the future)
- I'm not sure how useful the screenshots/mediainfo/etc are by itself. AT is primarily a DDL mirror after all, but do you believe it'd be that useful?
- the script is currently geared towards anime. Simply fetching from other categories isn't a problem by itself (beyond what's mentioned already), but I don't feel that as much value add can be provided for those (for example, auto categorisation is done by trying to parse the English title, looking for common English words etc). There'd also need to be some work needed to get the website's UI to show categories, but that's relatively simple
- there's a maintenance cost for processing more stuff too, e.g. increased frequency/likelihood of stuff breaking

As for just listing the entries as skipped, I'm not sure what the point is? You may as well just browse Nyaa instead.

One thing I found strange is that some non-english fansubs posted torrents it in the English category, sometimes to get more seeders, sometimes as a mistake, then got listed here. Because of that I first trought they are allowed here.
Everything posted to the English anime category from sources Nyaa/Anidex/TokyoTosho is listed here. AT doesn't accept submissions directly and hence doesn't really have any rules as to what's "allowed". Rather, what's "allowed" is what's permitted by the rules and moderation of the sources.
Miscategorisation happens, as you've mentioned, and means that they show up here incorrectly, but these usually do get corrected.

I got a bit worried when I found there is a MD5 based captcha validation here: isn't it insecure? MD5 is pretty fast to crack, so one can just try to crack it like a password. Isn't better to do it using an AJAX call?
It's just a CAPTCHA image - it's not meant to be highly secure. I'd be surprised if today's CV technology couldn't crack it (the image isn't that secure after all). Or you could just use one of those cheap human CAPTCHA solving services (going rate is around US$0.50 per 1000 solves).
The code is there just to be a fast convenient way for the user to see whether their input is correct without invoking a bunch of network calls. I'm not a fan of CAPTCHAs, so the idea is to make it as painless as possible. The check is not required, as in, you can still submit stuff with Javascript disabled, and the server has to validate it anyway.
As you've pointed out, you could just brute force the MD5 hash, and it wouldn't even take that long. But chances are, it's computationally hard enough that it isn't worth bothering, just to post some spam (and I can always increase the number of rounds if necessary).

Or you could just reigster an account. CAPTCHAs aren't presented to logged in users.

Possibilities are endless ...
While the suggestion of OP is somewhat meaningless, screenshots/mediainfo/etc are really helpful as they let us know exactly what is going to be downloaded (considering the fact that these important info are absent from absolute majority of posts on sources like Nyaa).

Keep up the good work, admin ;)

Your first question are incredibly dumb. imo.
"what's the reasoning behind allowing only English subs".
It's already on FAQ where this site purpose is providing English-translated anime with direct download links in the first place. You don't need another reason. That's basically same as asking "why nyaa.si only allowing Eastern Asian content."
"I found strange is that some non-english fansubs posted torrents it in the English category"
Some non-English fansubs or fanrips are still putting English subs in their releases, it's called dual-subs or multiple-subs.
Both of them are still containing English subs and allowed to post it under English-translated Anime category on nyaa.si.

Glad I found this place. Needs more obscure sources for rare anime files.
