Netflix like web app for watching animes

MONIMO

Your anime best fren.

Idea

For people that love animes, there are not tons of great choices. Crunchyroll just sucks. Netflix selection sucks too. So what if we had something that offers a kick-ass experience with all the animes you can watch, for the awesome price of 0$ a month ?

Introducing MONIMO. The best application to watch your favorite animes in. It has all the features you would want. Continue where you left off, check out latest releases, next episode plays automatically, and most importantlly NO ADS!

It doesn't use torrents, but instead uses @masteranidotme API. That means if you are feeling nostalgic and just want to see Naruto's first episode, it will work. It also means the whole thing is very dependent on the wellbeing of @masteranidotme 🙌🏻
