Theanimewatch.com - Social Network for Anime Fans

Anime fans might enjoy the brand-spanking new community theanimewatch.com; a social networking site that lets anime lovers upload their favorite videos to share with the rest of the community. theanimewatch has all the features you would expect from any social networking site planning on making it big, including but not limited to: a forum, a chat function, personal profiles, and news. Since the site is new (less than 24 hours old at the time of this review), there is an active call for both submissions and suggestions. Site registration is free.

theanimewatch has all the components of a social-networking site trying to make its place in an increasingly competitive market. Because the site is so new, it's hard to gauge what kind of success theanimewatch will see. However, if they can accumulate a decent user base, they may be able to compete with larger sites like AnimeMine and Naruto.

One potential problem is definitely the depth of the personal profiles; why are the limited to a user name and real name with a generic avatar? Does the site plan on expanding this feature soon? If there's anything that deters a potential user it's an ugly and oversimplified profile page.
