Welp it happened, the coffin has officially been hammered closed on both Kissanime AND Kissmanga. So now I guess is a good time to say this: if you used those two sites as your primary source/only source for watching anime, here’s a few sites.
Gogoanime, 9anime, and animepahe, though I prefer animepahe due to no lag issues when watching in a higher quality, plus no false sites faking as the original site, like with the two aforementioned sites.
For manga readers who were using Kissmanga, I’d go to Mangadex or mangago, I use both since mangago sometimes doesn’t have everything.
But ye those are a few sites I’d recommend checking out.
Edit: Kissanime.ru was the ONLY OFFICIAL site. If you are one of the people currently using a working kissanime site or any affiliated kiss sites. Those are NOT official sites, those are FAKE SITES. Fake sites commonly phish people’s data, usernames, passwords, among possibly other things, and these sort of fake sites WILL make you more susceptible to viruses.
ALSO this was brought to my attention earlier, there was a bookmarks feature on Kissanime and some of y’all may have lost track of pretty much everything you were watching. I’m bringing these things up for those who either lost what was in the bookmarks when the site was shutdown and for people that don’t know how they can keep up with the anime they watch.
Here’s two things I use to keep track of my anime and manga:
Anilist is a list site that is used to keep track of any anime/manga/manhwa you read/watch. You can also socialise with others via forums and the global status area. Anilist also has multiple apps and extentions for whatever device you’re on and you can check it out on their site.
MAL is a site that I honestly haven’t used since I found out about Anilist. MAL has been around for almost 2 decades, so naturally they do have some stuff that Anilist still doesn’t have on their site. MAL as a site is pretty okay, but they haven’t changed the way their site looks since 2010 and you can honestly really tell.
