Belated Merry Christmas 2024 and Happy New Year's 2025!



Merry Christmas and Happy New Year's to all! This marks the 7 year milestone since we first reached out to the AniDB community for assistance, back in December 2017. We are grateful for all the community support that keeps AniDB alive. Our 2024 Spring fundraising post raised enough funds to support AniDB for 9 months!

With that, we’re pleased to announce our 2024 Christmas and 2025 New Year's fundraising post, and the winner of our 2024 Christmas and 2025 New Year's Patreon banner contest; congratulations frozenstein for an excellent banner! Thank you also to JimKi and aroptua for participating.

We hope that everyone enjoyed Christmas and New Year's!



Anyone subscribed to our Patreon campaign before this post should be charged on 2025-Feb-01 for your contribution to AniDB. We try hard to be as frugal as possible with your assistance, and try to avoid any build-up of excess outside of our set emergency fund. Because of this, our next fundraising post will likely not need to be until mid 2025. Refer to our Donations page for details. Thank you once again for your support and keeping us running!

Reminder: A quick reminder of my post here detailing major changes coming to the Patreon platform, and what that means for AniDB financially. If you haven't already, please check it out.

conspiracyThe conspiracy thriller (or paranoid thriller) is a sub-genre of the thriller which flourished in the 1970s in the US (and was echoed in other parts of the world) in the wake of a number of high-profile scandals and controversies (most notably Vietnam, the assassination of President Kennedy, Chappaquiddick and Watergate), and which exposed what many people regarded as the clandestine machinations and conspiracies beneath the orderly fabric of political life. The protagonists of conspiracy thrillers are often journalists or amateur investigators who find themselves (often inadvertently) pulling on a small thread which unravels a vast conspiracy that ultimately goes "all the way to the top"., militaryThe military, also known as the armed forces, are forces authorized and legally entitled to use deadly force so as to support the interests of the state and its citizens.
