Anime-Planet has been receiving an immense increase in traffic in the past few weeks, presumably because of the global COVID-19 quarantine. We've spent the past few weeks tweaking things to stabilize but it's clear that we need to upgrade our infrastructure to a more costly solution to keep things running at this new level. At 15:30 UTC (~15 minutes from now) we will have scheduled maintenance to complete this process. We anticipate 1-2 hours of downtime. If you'd like to chat with your fellow A-P'ers during this time please join our official Discord. If you'd like to help A-P keep our lights on consider supporting the site with a Paypal donation, and/or adding an Adblock exception for Anime-Planet. We're a large site created by fans, for fans - and revenue from our few ad units, and donations, help us pay for costly upgrades like this.
