Tips on How To Find Anime and Different Ways To Get Access

Anime can found by television sponsored channels such as in the United States or in Japan, the majority of accesses are based within these two countries. It is very unlikely for us to view anime in other countries or regions, because anime series producers often licensed and host their shows either by a company called "Funimation" which stands ground in the U.S, or live in Japan, where the roots and cultural aspect of manga (hand drawn Japanese comic books) originated.
So how do we get access and watch anime? The answer is that there a three ways :
1) You may go to a sponsored such as www.crunchyroll.com , which will give access to free anime episodes only after a few days after a new episodes of a series has been live and aired in Japan already, in addition when streaming a video, your web player will often pause an anime episode that you’re watching and an advertisement will play every 5-10 minutes. You can also have get instant access legally on newly aired anime episodes across the ocean (Japan) as soon as possible if you pay for the site’s membership, possible downloads, and advertisement free – did I say advertisement free? Yes I did. If you are unsure whether this site is good for investment – you have the option to try their one week or one month “trial membership access.”
 2) You may purchase anime DVD’s from online shop and auction sites such as: Ebay, Amazon, FYE, Funimation, and much more. If you prefer not to buy online, you also can purchase anime DVDs from stores such as Wal Mart, K Mart, Borders, Newbury Comics, or even Best Buy. Keep in mind that not every single anime series you wish to purchase will always be on the shelf for sale – it is wise to do some research by calling and checking with stores by asking friends and family, check as store’s website online.

3) Lastly but not least, is free streaming online. Before you stream or begin to download, please do your best to research your online anime streaming sites. Make sure your site legitimately sponsored, check for reviews and forums about the site to avoid illegal activities so you can avoid yourselves from getting into trouble with companies. 

To conclude, I have mentioned the three major ways into having access to anime: watching an aired series, purchasing DVDs, and streaming online. Next post we will cover recommended anime streaming sites, how to critique if a site is trustworthy and legitimate. Please stayed tune for more updates. Thank you for time!
