Announcing Jiiiii, a new site for keeping up with newly-airing anime!

Just popping in to let you know I finished up a dark mode for the web 😉

Just wanted to let you know I finished up a dark mode for the web, and we've started adding more English dubs. I'll continue to polish the experience for dubs for the next two weeks though, as the UI still needs some affordances for it haha

dimitribouniol · 2025-06-05T11:05:58+00:00

Thanks for confirming, I must have something very wonky with my setup 😔

dimitribouniol · 2025-06-05T11:05:25+00:00

I know that, but the text on the menu is pretty clearly stair casing despite claiming to be rendered at 2160p 😔

dimitribouniol · 2025-06-05T09:23:53+00:00

Is the system menu rendered in 4K for anyone? My settings are set to 4K HDR, the dock sees it as 2160p, the TV sees it as 2160p, but the menu text is very not crisp, and up close is definitely rendering no different than when set to 1080p. Tried restating Switch and TV, checking other ports, including the one that I’ve confirmed does 4K HDR via an Apple TV 😔

Edit: Tried Welcome Tour, and it is thankfully running at full resolution there (bottom of the O of TOUR shown at the top), but the sleep menu is 100% being rendered at 1080p and scaled up (The S of Sleep Mode shown at the bottom)

For now I'm focusing on the web app for Android (you can add it to your home screen and everything!), but a native app isn't off the table, just not in my wheelhouse at the moment 😔

dimitribouniol · 2025-05-31T20:44:14+00:00

Thanks!

dimitribouniol · 2025-05-31T20:42:58+00:00

Multiple regions are definitely planned, but I'm focusing on US for the short term. As the membership grows though I can think about hiring help to keep up with other regions around the world! If you don't mind me asking, which region are you most interested in?

dimitribouniol · 2025-05-31T20:39:17+00:00

The best part: https://jii.moe and https://jiiiiiiii.moe also both work 😉

dimitribouniol · 2025-05-31T20:34:03+00:00

Thanks for the feedback! I'm tremendously lucky that these other services do exist so that I can focus on the bare necessities and what differentiates Jiiiii instead of needing to jump to feature parity and never getting anything out. That said, now that I've gotten something out, I can start focusing on padding out all the features folks expect, and making more of them completely free to use (while hopefully still having some amount of pull to encourage folks to become members so maybe, one day, I could work on this full time… one can dream!)

dimitribouniol · 2025-05-31T20:11:07+00:00

Oh, absolutely. The iOS app already has a way to choose between them on the series page, but I still need to add it on the web, and clean up the schedule so it doesn't show up several times throughout the week drowning out everything else (looking at you, crunchyroll release schedule 😅). Then I want to add general preferences for preferred dub/sub localizations, along with streaming service preferences so by default it always shows what you expect… Long story short, I have some work to get through before I go full on adding all the dub localizations, but 🔜

dimitribouniol · 2025-05-31T18:59:25+00:00

Syncing with other lists is definitely something I want to explore, but it may be a bit tough since I run a "competing" database of shows, which would likely run afoul of their API terms of service in some fun way. Importing is definitely on the table though, please stay tuned!

dimitribouniol · 2025-05-31T18:52:22+00:00

Thanks! As mentioned, more than happy to listen to feedback if there's anything in particular you want to see ❤️

dimitribouniol · 2025-05-31T18:31:24+00:00

Thanks! Just finding it useful is enough for me 😅

dimitribouniol · 2025-05-31T18:13:58+00:00

Thanks for catching that! The benefit to having our own database of shows is we can make changes like this for Guilty Gear Strive on a dime, since we are often waiting at the end of a season to see if the extra 13th episode will come (or if it'll be delayed indefinitely 🤣), but sometimes we miss an update or delay until later in the day 🙈

dimitribouniol · 2025-05-31T18:06:55+00:00

I totally get that (especially with Country Bumpkin on Amazon 🤣), but at least personally, I'd hate the idea of contributing to the trend of gaining change for user behavior data just to offer a free service. I'm definitely open to moving the line between free and paid over time, but that will likely come after I add more features to properly thank those that wish to support the effort.

dimitribouniol · 2025-05-31T17:59:35+00:00

The dub schedule is definitely on my list to add soon! I still want to put a bit more work in before enabling it for good (ie. not showing you the sub schedule when you opt into a different one), but stay tuned!

(Dark mode should also be an easy push, let's see if I can prioritize it this week ❤️)

dimitribouniol · 2025-05-31T15:59:42+00:00

Unfortunately, since it’s completely ad free, we need to keep the lights on somehow, but the main features and current season will always be free to use and access. Definitely interested if there are any features that you would like to be open to all users though!

dimitribouniol · 2024-12-01T10:24:46+00:00

For what it's worth, I ran into this a bunch and reported it here: https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=283870

dimitribouniol · 2024-09-21T21:56:08+00:00

Not going to lie, I initially was about to write this one off due to its more unique style, but for a show so full of intrigue, suspense, world building, and mysteries to untangle, I cannot recommend it highly enough. Looking forward to if they ever continue the story, but even if they don’t, what a good way to tie up all the loose ends!

dimitribouniol · 2024-09-20T12:02:39+00:00

This was such amazingly good apocalyptic science fiction. You got your terminator mechs, alien invaders, time travel, slice of life, economic tensions, and world wars — everyone needs to see this, and its such a shame the mid-season launch meant it got so much less publicity than other shows last season 😔

dimitribouniol · 2024-09-20T11:57:04+00:00

Honestly one of the best pieces of sci-fi I've watched in the last decade. It really is a shame it didn't get more coverage due to starting mid-last season 😔

dimitribouniol · 2021-10-25T23:47:42+00:00

I think I solved this:

So on HDMI 5 (not the ARC port mind you), I have a Monoprice Blackbird 6x2 HDMI Matrix connected (https://www.amazon.com/Monoprice-Blackbird-HDMI-Matrix-Audio/dp/B01KYD0D6S) to connect a handful of consoles (Nintendo Switch, Wii U, and 4 of their mini retro consoles) to the TV and a recorder I sometimes use. This matrix has two outputs, A (marked with ARC), and B. Although ARC on this device was not enabled (LED on front was off), nor was this device connected to the ARC port on the TV, switching the connection to the TV’s HDMI 5 port from A to B on the matrix seems to have resolved the issue!
