Andrew Nguyen 2025-07-18: One last kiss blown to this extension. 5 years later and it is as good as gone. There was no comeback for what this was for. This extension was good even till the end when it was gone. Really enhanced the experienced and the customisation was ahead of its time. Rest well developers. Aloha oe.
Bryce Pirie 2020-11-15: is there any chance that this extension could be compatible with https://www.kimanime.com if reconfigured slightly?, because that site is running off the original kissanime.ru web UI data. so it is the closest thing to kissanime.ru being revived, so this extension should be compatible with just a bit of reconfiguring and operation syncing, which would at least make it easier for you to pull off. at least think about it, even check the site out for yourself and see if you can do anything with it.

Christian Molina 2020-03-06: It was superb when the player was the previous one. It lets me continue where I left watching an episode. Now the player has no auto resume. Sad. Also the resolution selector and force low resolution is gone. Now I'm mega sad. Well, I think it's temporary because of the revamp, so I'm still waiting.

Blake Hawco 2020-02-16: I have been a long time user and fan of this extension. The recent update has removed the feature that displayed the most recent episode for pinned anime. This feature made it very easy to know if a new episode had been released. Another issue prior to this update was that the pinned anime list would not appear on the homepage initially and would generally only display if refreshed- somewhat defeating its purpose. Hopefully these features regain full functionality in the future! Thank you for your hard work.

Robin Holmgren 2020-02-13: I respect the choice to remove the adblocker, and it still is a useful extension which i have been using for quite some time... however, asking for the "reading browser history" permission, even if transparent about it, is a terrible choice to do, especially since the source code is not available afaik. People value their privacy in this day and age, seeing that permission is like waving red in front of a bull. If the FAQ is correct and the only thing the permission does is removing the brief flash, i'm sure people would rather have the flash back than to see that much more jarring permission pop up.

Randolph Ray Lao 2020-02-11: The only useful feature for me is the Last Watched Episode on the Hompage and the links for Torrents and other sites. Other features I don't turn on because they are either buggy, annoying or I had other script and extension alternatives. Now this extension is asking for my Browsing History, Declined and Uninstalled.

William Jones 2020-01-15: Very useful extension that makes it much easier to find and watch new episodes of ongoing shows. I've had slight problems with it showing up on the page but refreshing the page has always fixed that issue for me.
