| You can't torrent? I really hope this isn't true. |
| Well since I don't live on campus I have no idea, but I'm guessing you are allowed to stream. |
 |
| Stockpile them a lot. That what I did when I still can only use DVD burning to store them. Now that portable HD is so damn cheap, you can pretty much have more than you ever have time to watch. |
| Nah, i dont think sharing anime ratings in signature is cool thing. Here, stare at this pointless signature instead. |

| Why not watch on official streaming sites instead? Assuming sites like CR are available in your region, anyway. Unless they block the streaming sites off the network completely, I imagine you'd probably be able to watch them. And along with the other suggestions, there are non-torrent methods of downloading out there. |
| Download them at home. Unless you're out of state or just can't go home then well you're shit out of luck. |
| Dunno about your college but mine didn't block any anime related websites and videos. The only thing they blocked was p0rn obviously. By the way, so many students torrented movies and stuffs on the campus. In the worst case you can't really do anything, just go to Internet Cafe or something. |

| My uni didn't give a shit, and CR and stuff wasn't around yet, so I just torrented everything like a good student. I'd just say get CR though nowadays, no reason not to have it anyway. 5 bucks a month for 1080p and all the fansubbers just steal their scripts anyway, so you get it first as well. I'd just make sure the site works at all (you can sign up for free trial) before paying, the school might block it or something - never know. |

Colleges don't care what you look up or do. As long as it's not in the library if you have a laptop or desktop in your dorm room they could give a shit less. My roommate watched porn 19/7 |

| You'll watch anime while in college? I had an anime dry spell for four years because I took chemical engineering... =( Well, maybe you are more academically gifted and can be distracted from your studies without compromising the result. OT: I'm still studying now, and my university does not allow torrents and physical downloads for big documents as well but I think streaming is okay. We have an allotted 3 GB of data every month to use. |

| At my college, they couldn't care less what websites you visit, but even at other schools, I'm sure that you wouldn't get in trouble for watching anime online illegally. I'm sure they have more pressing matters than going after some guy watching Chinese cartoons in his room. With that said, torrenting here is blocked, meaning that you can download the torrent and open it in some torrent program, but the connection itself will be blocked, meaning the file will not download. To get around this, I use a cheap seedbox and simply download the files via http (i.e. normal file download) to my computer. Works like a charm! |

| I sit in lectures, watching anime from the Crunchyroll app on my iPad. Not the greatest selection but it sure beats listening to the lecturer drone on and on about moles and chemical compositions |

| Wat? I'm not following. Why don't you just watch it on a official website instead of torrenting? |

I only know crunchyroll and they dont have One Piece. I was a subscriber for a pretty long time before I canceled the subscription. I canceled it the moment I found of about other websites that have everything I am looking and more- without paying. |

| Luckily the internet speed in my college is quite fast, so I opted to streaming. Besides, my college blocked most of the download sites |
| Stream or download :D |
 |
| Stream legally. It's probably your best option if you have it. I saw a couple of people streaming anime in my library on their laptops but nobody gave a shit. |

I ask this because I know you can't torrent and stuff in college on their internet so I'm wondering how all the people in college watch their anime(assuming you cannot stream it, though I don't know if its allowed). I'm sorry, but I couldn't help but laugh at this. I mean, I laughed really fucking hard. Sorry, I didn't mean to hurt your feelings if I did. To answer your question, yes. I watched anime on "illegal" streams all the time in college. I don't think you'd get in trouble if you watched illegal streams anywhere unless it was somewhere like a public library where they might have a set guideline for what you can and can't browse. *edit* You seriously can't torrent at your college? That's actually really surprising... |

| My older cousins and his room mates download them off of the college internet then they burn the season to a cd and sell it to the other college students. |

Slyr3do0n said: You can't torrent? I really hope this isn't true. Yes you can't torrent, as most torrents are illegal many colleges flat out ban it. You could torrent at home and watch it in dorms or just stream for convenience. |
| You can stream if on campus or if you live outside of campus you can torrent or do streaming as well. |
 |
| You can still download from fansub groups via xdcc on IRC or stream legally. |
