I woke up early today to visit my Dermatologist/Doctor for my follow-up checkup regarding some skin problems. I arrived there at exactly 8 in the morning (8am-12nn is the clinic hours printed on their medical prescription) but I was told that the doctor will be coming by 10 in the morning. I was so unlucky. This is what I got for not calling them before going there. Lesson learned: If the clinic says call first for appointment, strictly follow it so you won't ended up like me :)
It took me almost an hour to get there so I decided to stayed somewhere near the clinic and just wait for that 10 o'clock to come. Luckily, there's a fast food chain nearby and since I haven't eaten breakfast this would be a perfect place for me to stayed for 2 hours.
While waiting, I've been thinking of something to do so I won't get bored. I was scrolling thru my phone and from there I saw the album of some episodes of my favorite anime entitled "One Piece". It was the perfect way to kill time!!! Besides, I have a lots of catching-up to do since I've been missing watching those episodes lately.
I have been very vocal about my love for this anime and have mentioned in my previous post like this My First Set of One Piece Action Figure! where our son's name came from. And I couldn't explain clearly nor get into further details what happiness it brings to me by watching it. There's something in this Anime that will really capture your heart! This is a masterpiece! If you get to watch it from the beginning I am pretty sure you will fall in love with its unique story.
Each episodes consists of less than 25 minutes. But the opening theme song eats almost 3 minutes and the last episode recap was less than 2 minutes and another 2 minutes for the preview of next episode. That left the viewers with just less than 18 minutes to watch the whole episode that makes the viewers crave for another episode for the author to upload. Not to mention that this anime updates once a week and as per the Apps that I am using, they upload one episode every Sundays. It could be a little tedious for some viewers, so in order for them not to get bore from waiting, they maybe watch other Anime or even gather updated episodes of One Piece before they watch again just like what we are doing. But for those who are really an avid fan of this anime, waiting is nothing. (If you are patient huh) Sometimes something to look up to every week leaves us an exciting feeling, doesn't it? Just like waiting in Steemit for 7 days for our post to have its payout, right?

As for me, I am skipping the first 5 minutes of each episode. From the Opening Song to the recap and at the ending, I am skipping the preview. Why? It's because I am catching up with those episodes that I've missed and I think that playing the opening song up to recap consumes a lot of time. So I always jumped into what should be seen on each episode. Those were some of the scenes from the 5 episodes I finished while waiting for my Doctor to arrived :)
I started out from Episode 820 and stopped at 824. If I would summarized it, uhm, well, how and where would I begin with? HAHAHA. I am now and the story is still on the Cake Island where one of the Strongest Emperor of the Sea is living. You can see it in my friend's post. He drew it perfectly, Anime Drawing: Big Mom of One Piece. Wherein the story in this Chapter is about rescuing Sanji, one of the crew member and the Nakama (friend), the Cook of the pirate ship of the main character Luffy.
After my checkup I continued watching again and spend my one hour ride to get to our office. I think I have finished almost 3 episodes due to moderate traffic.
I finished all the episodes downloaded and stored on my phone but still I crave for more. So I accessed the Apps that we are using to download and watch Anime and today I wanna share it to you :) #Animania
I am not sure if this will work too outside the Philippines but this is downloadable in Play stores. It was easy to use. A friendly-user interface. I am glad that one of my friend told me about this App when I am almost loosing hope to find safe sites to watch One Piece. A lot of sites have viruses, some will harm your phone or your computer if you download something. But this App is very safe to use. I guarantee :) For those steemians who wanted to try watching anime or be an Otaku, I am recommending you this App!
Otaku is a Japanese term for people with obsessive interests, commonly towards the anime and manga fandom. Source: Wikipedia

There are lots of Anime to choose from in this App, just click browse and choose or even search for the particular anime you want to watch. As for me, since I've been watching One Piece, I put it under My Favorites List so I don't need to search it every time I access this App.

This App needs wifi connection to work. Just click the episode you want. You can do four ways in this app, either download it so you can watch it online, play it using the app, play it using chrome cast (device that you need to connect in your TV's or if you have Smart TV I think this would work also), or you can play it using the App #Animania itself or play it using your video player. Let's try the three ways!
Playing using External Video Player

Honestly I am not using it. I just try it now and finally see how it works. Every time you try to choose actions from this apps, like downloading or watching it from the app or external player, a 22 seconds Advertisement will shows up. You cannot skip that ad. Just wait for it to finish. After that another window will display on your screen, asking for you to choose what to use in completing desired action as showned on the picture on the left. Afterwards, it will play on your player and I think it is much better than playing it using the one in the App. Sample on the right side: (maybe the graphics will vary depending on the phone you are using but that's mine for reference.)
Playing using the Apps Player

In using this action, be sure that all the options boxes will be left unchecked. All you need to do is to click the play icon and wait for the ad to finished and then afterwards it will start playing. Although all actions requires a strong internet connection, I am not using this most of the time. I'd rather download it than to wait for it to buffer. And sometimes the graphics isn't that good.
Downloading It

The most convenient for me to do is to download it. Oh wait, did I mentioned that you can use this for free? You can download it for free guys! You just need to checked Download Mode wait for less than 10 minutes to finished downloading (downloading time depends on your internet speed) and then Animania App creates own album wherein all episodes you will download will be stored to it. I preferred downloading episodes because I can watch it anytime anywhere even without internet connection. And also I can share it to my friends phones if they want a copy it.
So that's it guys! I hope I have been able to share something useful here Lols. Enjoy watching and if you can give me feedback about this App or even this Anime One Piece, I would love to hear it from you guys! As you can see it's on 836th episode as of now and I am 6 episodes away to reach the latest :)
Thanks for sharing these amazing apps Anna <3 !!
