r/anime wouldn’t let me post because I was new, but this apiles to Amari an animation too.

This might be an old question, I don’t come here often. I’m pretty new to anime and have been binging some shows but I don’t have any streaming services or the money to buy them, so I’ve been using a website that pretty clearly has pirated them, and I don’t really know how I feel about that. is it ethical, would the animators still be paid if I used Hulu instead?

I don’t care about the adds or anything, I just want to know how much harm I am doing to the animators and studios, and how I can support them if I’m watching their shows via piracy.
