Hello Everyone!
As many of you may have noticed, we've been falling short of our donation goals for the past few months. I'm reaching out again with a humble ask for your support, but I also want to share some exciting updates on our beta site that we’ve been working hard on!
A Special Thank You
A huge thank you to everyone who has been continuously reporting issues and suggesting improvements. We're a small team, but as long as we continue pushing for progress, we are on the right track. Your feedback truly makes a difference!
If you’d like to support us through Patreon, please find the link below. Alternatively, feel free to reach out to me directly if you prefer to donate outside of Patreon.
What’s New on the Beta Site:
Personalized Recommendations
We've added a "Recommended For You" section on the homepage! Based on the anime you’ve watched and your genre preferences, we’ll suggest titles we think you’ll love. The more you watch, the more accurate our recommendations will be. (Available for logged-in members only.)

Account Settings Page
We've created a new account management hub, where you can quickly update your username, email, avatar, and notification preferences — all in one place!
Homepage Widgets
We’ve added some new sections to the homepage:

Recent Updates — Latest episodes available to stream
Recent Discussions — What the community is talking about
Welcome Onboarding
New members will now enjoy a guided tour upon their first login, so they can quickly get familiar with the site.
Donation Tiers & Perks
We've introduced donor tiers to recognize our supporters. The more you contribute, the higher your tier:
- Supporter ($1+) — Your first donation
- Patron ($10+) — A committed supporter
- Champion ($50+) — A major contributor
- Legend ($100+) — A pillar of the community
All donors will receive a badge on their profile reflecting their tier. Every donation helps keep the site running ad-free for everyone.
UI Improvements
We’ve made improvements across nearly every page, including cleaner headers, better navigation, smoother modals, and a more polished overall feel.
Our long-term goal is to evolve the Beta Site into the main site, while the current main site will become our legacy platform. It's a long road ahead, but I'm committed to making this vision a reality. I hope you’ll continue to join me on this journey as we strive to create an ad-free, fun, and relaxed space for Otaku-Streamers!
All hail OS!
