User reviews

It's only for the the Animes that he linked for YouTube. Honestly pretty lame and also the links don't work either.

Super useful for watching anime, esp for learning Japanese!

The basic idea behind this addon is sound. The reason I can't give it a better mark is that I can't access a single episode, rendering it useless.
