A few site improvements rolled out this past week:
- Search From the Navbar
- The Anime and Characters menus in the top navigation now include a search box right under the alphabet links. Type a name and matches appear instantly – case-insensitive, punctuation-insensitive, and accent-insensitive (typing “morte” finds Morté, “yu gi oh” finds Yu-Gi-Oh!, etc.). Use ↑/↓ arrow keys to step through results without leaving the search box, and press Enter to open the highlighted profile.
- “Characters on this Page”
- When you’re viewing an anime profile or one of its character pages, the Characters menu now lists every character profile from that anime right under the search box. Lets you jump between characters in a series without backtracking to the index.
- Character Thumbnails on Profile Pages
- Anime profile pages now show small thumbnails next to each name in the character list, the same way the main character index does. They lazy-load as you scroll so the page itself stays light.
- Faster Pages
- Most images across the site – thousands of JPGs, PNGs, and GIFs – have been converted to the modern WebP format. Photos shrank by an average of about 50%, screenshots and PNGs by over 90%, and animated GIFs are now animated WebPs. Same images, smaller downloads.
- Fewer Cookies
- Site preferences (dark mode toggle, background art choice, transparency, file explorer state) used to be stored in browser cookies that got sent on every request. They’re now kept in your browser’s localStorage instead, which means less data on the wire and less for tracking-aware browsers to flag.

Posted the anime profile of Dr. Stone. Fixed a lot of dead links on the site. Some I was able to update with a working replacement, but most had to be removed. Removed links are still visible in the text, they're just no longer clickable as normal links. Click one and you'll get a popup letting you know it's been classified as dead, with the option to try opening the original URL anyway.

What is Anime?
Discover Anime @ AbsoluteAnime.comScience Rescue Team TechnoVoyagerAnime (アニメ) is, in the simplest term, animation from Japan. As you can imagine, this covers a whole heck of a lot of varying artistic styles, many of which differ quite drastically, yet the common thread through it all is exaggeration. Characters having large eyes or exuberant unnaturally colored hair are often the first features to stand out for a person new to anime, but there are also techniques such as colored lines or icons drawn over faces to indicate specific emotions or temporary physical deformations such as flattening a face when a character is struck hard or turning them into a "chibi", which is a short, super-cute version of the character with a really large head and small body.
Anime is produced in three basic forms, on television, as Original Video Animations (OVA), and as full length feature films. Of these three mediums, movies typically have the best art and animation, as they have more development time and a larger budget, whereas television anime has more time to delve deep into a story and develop the characters. Unlike a lot of Western cartoon where plots are created and concluded in a single episode, television anime tends to have stories that span across the entire season, making it important to watch the show in order and hopefully not miss any episodes!
Anime isn't just for kids or sci-fi and fantasy geeks either, as it spans every type of genre imaginable. Some are made for young children, where others are strictly for adults only. No matter who you are, there is sure to be anime out there that melds with your desires, so please don't be turned off to anime as a whole if you happen to come across one or two series that you didn't care for. Try a different genre, or a different animation studio, because once you find that one show that emotionally touches you like no other before it, you will be hooked! So go find that anime, and experience the wonder of Japanese Animation!
