Yeah, you won’t get arrested. Illegally sounds kinda menacing lol but there’s not even a fine or anything at all

Also the main reason people watch illegally is cause crunchy roll and funimation (among other sites )kinda suck so I recommend to not use those.

Also a great way to watch anime on YouTube is to use channels like Muse Asia. They might be region locked but just use a vpn. They’re legal and ad revenue goes to supporting the anime, also subs and all that junk. Sadly there isn’t much services like this but the ones that are out there are very good.

Also to not give streaming sites money just use ad blockers they’re free and simple lol

[font="Source Sans Pro", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif]9anime, kickassanime, animesuge are all illegal why? Because...[/font]

[font="Source Sans Pro", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif]1. Those sites don't have permission to host the content.[/font]
[font="Source Sans Pro", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif]2. They just download from torrent sites, and upload the episodes without asking the fansubbers permission. Some groups don't like their stuff posted on other sites.[/font]
[font="Source Sans Pro", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif]3. The biggest reason why it is illegal is because sites like 9anime make money off all the their views from ads, spyware/adware, bitcoin miners, etc. They are ripping off the creators of all the anime being uploaded because 9anime is making money off of it, which is highly illegal. Not a single cent is going to any anime company or their creators.[/font]

[font="Source Sans Pro", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif]Which streaming sites are legal then?[/font]

[font="Source Sans Pro", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif]Crunchyroll, Hidive, Funimation, RetroCrush, Hulu, AnimeLab, YouTube (Official channels only; Beyblade Burst Official to name one)[/font]

[font="Source Sans Pro", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif]None of these legal streaming sites have Beyblade to watch in Japanese. The only way to watch Beyblade in Japanese with English subtitles is through illegal means such as direct download links, or torrents, and illegal streaming sites. Direct downloads, and torrenting the episodes is the best unofficial way to watch them because you won't be paying sites like 9anime. We used to have download links here, but due to legal issues, such as the WBO being affiliated with official companies, we can't anymore. Please try to support the creators instead of supporting illegal streaming websites.[/font]
