Is anime1.com a legal site for watching anime?


Other anime streaming sites are blocking my IP because I'm Iranian while
anime1.com isn't. I wanted to know if it's legal to watch/stream anime from
this site. Thanks.

manga.

**Is anime1.com legal?** Nope. An immediate indicator that a site is illegal
is if it's laced with ads that are usually irrelevant to anime/manga in
general. anime1.com's anime pages are almost filled up with ads and clicking
on anime episode links results to pop-ups.

'You can also check the site information to confirm if they have a valid
certificate and connection type,' as mentioned by @Rumplestiltskin. If a green
padlock is present, that site is most likely secure and a 'Connection is
secure' message will pop out whenever you click on it. This helps you avoid
'really dangerous anime-scam sites.' anime1.com does not have this so be wary
of sites like these.

**Clarification** : I just want to clarify something since people seem to
misunderstand. **The check for valid certificate is not a way to check for a
site's legality**. It is just for security purposes. There are many ways to
check for a site's security but that, I think, is outside the scope of the
question.
