Danmaku, comments that fly across the video

Danmaku are short comments that drift across the video at the moment they were written, so you can react to a scene together with other viewers.

Steps

  1. Watch them go by. Once you are signed in, comments drift right to left across the top of the picture. The subtitles below stay clear.
  2. Write one. Open the side panel with the Donghua Mate cloud and type in the comment box at the bottom.
  3. Send it. Your comment is pinned to this moment of the episode and flies across straight away, with a gold underline so you can spot it.
  4. Turn them off. Switch off Danmaku in the side panel's Settings tab when you want a clean picture.

Good to know

  • A comment is one line of up to 40 characters.
  • Sending needs an activated account. Comments cannot be sent while an ad is playing.
