HiAnime has officially shut down.
The popular free anime streaming site (formerly Zoroto and Aniwatch) first went offline on March 13, 2026, displaying the farewell message: “It’s time to say goodbye. And thank you for a wonderful journey with great moments.”
At the time, Discord moderators suggested the outage may have been due to a technical issue and said they were investigating, leading many users to believe the site would return.
After more than 80 days of silence, moderators have now confirmed that HiAnime has officially shut down.
The shutdown marks the end of a major chapter in online anime streaming.
