So a few people have been wondering how to download anime through a torrent so I will make a tutorial on how to do it and what websites you need to visit, etc. I will not being going in to deep detail how how torrents work but if you're interested in that I can post it another time, this will just be a tutorial on how to download a torrent.
1.
First of all you need to download a torrent client, I will list some of the most popular ones with a download link:
http://www.bittorrent.com/
http://www.utorrent.com/
https://deluge-torrent.org/ (not as well known but it is the one I use)
Download and install any of these three programs, it doesn't matter which one you only need one they all do the same thing.
2. All torrent sites have a very similar lay out but I will just show screen shots of nyaa.si. Once you open the site you can search the the series at the top right corner of the page. Now to find the right one to download.
The page will look something similar to this, now what do all these tags and stuff mean?
Purple Anime Sub is English sub titled.
Green Anime Sub is non-English sub titled. It will say the language it is subbed in usually in the title.
Grey is raw with no subs.
Now I searched for "Tsukimonogatari" and the first links that poped up were the full series and I only wanted this one so I'll download the one I highlighted in red.
In the title in brackets it has who subbed it, the series name and the quality it is in other information down the line is the download button, the date it was uploaded and next to that it has a green number these are called seeders they are people who are hosting the file for you to download, the more of these the faster the download will be, next to it is leeches these are people who are uploading what they have and are also downloading from others (dont worry about these too much) and at the end we have how many people have downloaded it in total.
3. To start the download click the magnet icon and it will ask if it can open your torrent client to start the download.
Click open and it will automatically start downloading. Once its done downloading just right click on it and click pause unless you want to seed it for a while.
And that is all there is too it. There are many other anime torrent sites I think they were mentioned in another thread but pretty much everything you need will be at nyaa.si. Now I want to clear up some some misconceptions that you will get a virus from these sites. If you stick the the right sites and download from known uploaders you wont have any problems I've been torrenting for years and I have never had such a problem. If you're still think the file is suspicious you can click on the title and read the comments. If you still don't understand or have any questions feel free to ask.
