Japan's anime industry has been severely impacted by piracy, with the Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry (METI) reporting a staggering loss of $38 billion in 2025 due to anime piracy. This figure represents a threefold increase from the previous year, highlighting the growing threat of piracy to the industry. The report, based on a consumer survey conducted across Japan, China, Vietnam, France, the United States, and Brazil, underscores the increasing popularity of anime and manga globally, which has led to a surge in demand for pirated content.

Feel proud of yourselves, everybody. We made this happen !

Admin, I want to thank you for all that you've done. I can't imagine the burden it must've been on your cognitive load to maintain a site like this for 15 years. I hope that your mind will finally be free to move on to whatever you want to do next now that you've committed to letting this site go.

This site has been part of my life since 2012 and checking it has provided me comfort through hard times. I wish you happiness now and in the days to come. You're a legend!

Thanks for running this site for 15 years admin. Can't imagine doing something this long for free(?). I don't remember how much but i think you've always fetched skipped stuff i requested in the comments.

I haven't really used the site for downloading episodes/movies for some years now. I usually visit just to check mediainfo and download subtitles occassionally. Guess i'll miss those 2... don't know any other site that provides them.

Thanks for the usenet posts. Hopefully they're going to serve us for years to come.

As AT is closing down, so this is how i am parsing the ANIMES:
Adding a URL feed in uTorrent for each season anime.
Search how to add feed to uTorrent.

SHARING IS CARING AND F*CK ALL THE FIGHTS IN THIS CHAT WITH MORONS,FANBOIS and with the admin.

Good luck with things after AT!

Thank you for everything you've done over the past few years!

As an encoder that made countless releases thanks to the subs AnimeTosho made more easily available to everyone, I'm very grateful for everything you did and the quality of the service for so many years. We will be missing you, many thanks again and hope your next adventure is a good one too!

Anime Tosho's quality as a site is unmatched. Think of this as one stop shop where everything is available through one site. I mean how awesome is that. Still, I'm very sad to see this go but I'm really grateful because this site exists. Godspeed, admin.

Hi Admin, thank you for your great service over all these years and good luck in the future adventures :)
Could you please show an example script on how to get all the subs, chapters, tags and attachments from a specific release in a neat "animetosho-7z" style? I assume you use mkvextract, mkvinfo and... what else? Can't figure out how to get subtitle file names in language-tagged "track3.eng.ass" format. Would be so great to continue stacking up attachments in a good-old-familiar way after The_Black_Day comes...
