And they wonder why anime is pirated so much. Even the shittiest pirate site is a better experience to use than anything paid.
Indeed. Because of this change, I already cancelled the auto renew of my subscription and I started looking back at the high seas.
Are the comments really that important? The only time I ever went in them was recently to report the trolls wishing people HIV in the twilight out of focus comments
Comments were more of a bonus that I enjoyed looking at after I watched an episode. You could sometimes find some very interesting comments.
However, what they also removed is reviews. And I used that to choose what animes I was going to add to my watchlist. Without that, the website is pretty much useless, I rather watch them elsewhere if I have to use another website anyway to get the reviews.
Arrgh. To the high seas with you!
