Our take
ShortMax is one of the fastest-growing entrants, with an aggressively expanding multi-language catalog aimed at a global audience. New-user promotions are strong, so your first week can be nearly free. The catalog skews toward translated titles so quality varies, but the breadth — especially in revenge and rebirth — is impressive. Worth installing for titles the bigger two don't carry.
Pros
- Rapidly expanding catalog
- Multiple language dubs
- Frequent promotions for new users
- Good selection of revenge and rebirth titles
Cons
- Translation quality varies by title
- Heavier ad load on the free tier
- Discovery can feel cluttered
