It usually happens due to a slow network or overloaded servers. Switching DNS or using a VPN can help stabilize connections.

Is HiAnime safe to use?

Yes, but use an ad blocker and avoid pop-ups for safer browsing.

Can a VPN help fix HiAnime not working?

Yes. VPNs bypass regional restrictions and sometimes reduce buffering by rerouting traffic.

If HiAnime stops working, clearing cache, updating browsers, or changing DNS usually solves it. Some fixes are similar to solutions used for 9anime not working on Chrome or Funimation issues on Chrome. When buffering persists, strategies from the 9anime buffering guide can also be applied.
