Ratings and reviews

Based on the ad, it seemed like the service would be at least partially free. nothing I tapped on was free. there isn't very much to tap on anyway, and if Overprotective Butler is anything to go by, at least some of them either utilize AI or terrible voice actors. That one just sounded too mechanical in the preview. I couldn't confirm it without a subscription. Nice that they say cancel anytime, but that doesn't mean a satisfaction refund. I'm too poor to play guessing games with subscriptions.

It's good overall, but I hope future updates can include a full-screen viewing option, auto-play for the next episode, enhanced search filters (e.g., genre and story status such as ongoing or completed), and additional dubbed audio options.

I have to pay for a subscription, honestly good app except for the subscription I thought I would be able to watch them for free, hopefully no subscription in the future
