AcFun, or AC for brief, is a website that specializes in the sharing of videos in China. An acronym for "Anime, Comic, and Fun" is AcFun. It is the first video-sharing website to feature remarks that are superimposed on videos. The website was initially designed to appeal to an ACGN (Animation, Comic, Game, and Novel) audience and is presently one of the most influential video-sharing websites for this demographic. The representative emblems of AcFun are TD Musume and AC Musume.
AcFun offers a fundamental feature that enables users to upload, examine, and share videos. The remarks of the users are directly superimposed on the videos. Users have the option to either directly add an overlaid remark to the videos or leave a comment in the comment section. While viewing videos, users have the opportunity to engage in more conversation and interaction.
Key Features:
- While viewing the video, users have the ability to leave comments.
- Comments will be displayed on the video screen as "dàn mù 弹幕."
- Users have the ability to establish a "blocking list" that enables them to exclude certain words or comments that they find objectionable.
- While viewing videos, viewers may encounter some unwanted comments that appear on the screen. These comments can be blocked by the viewer.
- The word or sentences would vanish from the screen of the viewer.
- The remarks or comments are still visible to the other viewers.
- Different categories of videos are categorized on the website.
- Animation (MAD), Music (Eastern, Vocaloid themes, and Animation songs), Game (it has many Asian themes but is now predominantly
- MUGEN), Entertainment (reality shows, etc.), Articles (Politics, military-related articles with some OTAKU), Drama, and so forth.
