The Spark of NerdMania

August 2025

Two friends with a deep love for manga and anime decided to create a completely free, ad-free haven for fans like them, planting the very first seed of NerdMania.

The Research Began

August 2025

The idea turned serious as they spent around two months learning web development, backend APIs, and hunting for free, reliable sources to support their dream platforms.

The Beginning

Mid October 2025

With research complete and tools chosen, Team NerdMania was born. The plan was clear: launch the manga site first, then bring anime to life right after.

Manga Era – First Launch

End October 2025

After weeks of 10–12 hour days, the first big milestone arrived: the manga site was deployed and manga.nerdmania.qzz.io → went live for the world.

The Start of Failures

Start of November 2025

The manga success brought pride, but also overconfidence, quietly setting the stage for a tough streak of failures as they moved toward building the anime site.

The First Failure (Breakdown)

November 2025

The anime site’s early build looked promising until the player broke completely—nothing but a black screen with no episodes loading, shattering their initial confidence.

The Second Failure – Fall of Team NerdMania

November 2025

Even after fixing the player, constant issues and 16-hour workdays led to burnout. Motivation collapsed, and they gave up on the anime idea, letting Team NerdMania fall—for a while.

The Rise – Comeback of Team NerdMania

Mid November 2025

News about actions on major sites reignited their resolve. With a healthier schedule and clearer mindset, Team NerdMania regrouped and returned to the anime project.

The First Ray of Success

Nearly End of November 2025

Development flowed smoothly, the demo worked, and the anime site finally behaved as planned, giving them their first real ray of success after a long stretch of setbacks.

The Setback

End of November 2025

Just before launch, unstable backend APIs and inconsistent episode data pushed progress back by about a quarter, forcing them into an aggressive hunt for better solutions.

The Bloom of Happiness

Start of December 2025

New, stable APIs were found and integrated. What once took 26+ hours was rebuilt in under 18, the site bloomed, and a 72+ hour stress test brought back their smiles and confidence.

The Sakura Bloom of NerdMania (Anime Launch)

December 5, 2025

After every failure, fall, comeback, and test, the anime site was finally deployed. anime.nerdmania.qzz.io → went live, and Team NerdMania truly returned—stress and doubt faded, replaced by genuine happiness.
