An open letter to AnimeNetwork on interface issues

Dear AnimeNetwork,

    You are my one stop for anime.  Okay that is a lie, I mostly get my anime fix from Funimation, but your still very pretty and I care very much about you very much…. Ish.  Except for that fact that you break my heart.  Please please improve your god awful interface.  Here are a few ideas that might make your service super better with little effort.

  1)	Auto Login:  other sites do it, why do I have to log in each time on my home computer.
  2)	Auto next episode:  Netflix, Hulu, Funimation, even youtube, has a feature that just plays the next episode    
            after you are done viewing the last… It cant be that hard.
  3)	Last Episode watched:  Again every other streaming service will show you where you left off.  Your service  
            doesn’t…

    In short, I have paid for several subscriptions to funimation for friends because I like their content, and I love their interface.  I have bought no one a subscription to your service because, even though I LOVE your content, I refuse to subject anyone to your interface.

Please please please, take a look at other streaming services and fix your god awful interface. I wana brag about how awesome your anime shows are to friends, but I just cant with this current interface.

Post Script, the ‘pause’ episode feature/tab is almost useless, often doesn’t work, and is not a substitute for just seeing where I left off.

Please don’t take this too hard, I believe you care about your fan base, and I mean most of this in good humor. But I feel that with a little effort, your sight could be my next favorite detestation after a long day of work and school.

Thanks so much for your great suggestions!

I forwarded this info on to Administration.

Thank you for the reply, it means a lot to me that you read this and took it into consideration! I’ll be patient and see what improvements are to come. I only wish I had said something sooner, it would have come off less passive aggressive if I had I’m sure.

My best to your efforts going forward!
