What to post in r/Animeedits
What fits the room, and what gets removed.
Works well
- An original anime edit you made yourself, posted with a short note about how you made it.
- A manga panel edit that clearly shows the source and your own creative work on it.
- A repost of someone else's edit where you credit the original creator clearly in the post.
- A comment on someone else's edit praising a specific technique, with no link attached.
- A question in the comments asking editors what software they use, answered by others, with no promotion from you.
Avoid
- Dropping your YouTube, Instagram, or TikTok handle in a post or comment before you are verified.
- Posting the same thing repeatedly, which reads as spam and is not tolerated.
- Sharing an edit of a live action show, a game, or anything outside anime and manga.
- Using AI tools to make or enhance your edit, since AI content is banned outright.
- Getting into arguments in the comments, because civility is a stated rule.
- Reposting someone else's edit without crediting them.

What r/Animeedits Is For
This community is for people who make their own anime edits and want to share them. The description says to post your OC anime edits, which means original content, so the edits should be yours. Reposting is allowed, but only if you give credit to whoever made the original. The rules narrow the scope further: only anime and manga edits belong here, and the edits must be made by humans, not AI. The people posting here are editors showing off their craft, and the people browsing are fans who enjoy watching those edits.
Rules That Matter Before Posting
Four rules decide whether a marketing-adjacent post survives here. “No advertising” is the big one, because it says you cannot advertise your YouTube, Instagram, TikTok, or any other social media, and only verified users are allowed to advertise. “No spam” matters because spamming is not tolerated at all. “Anime/Manga only” means your post has to be an anime or manga edit, nothing else. “No AI” bans AI edits, art, and scenes, so any AI-assisted work is out. “Be civil” is the baseline rule to keep in mind for how you talk to people in the comments.
What To Post
Post an edit you made yourself, and keep the focus on the edit. If it is a repost, give credit to the original creator, because the description says reposting is allowed when you do. If you want to mention your channel or socials, get verified first, because only verified users are allowed to advertise here. If you are a founder studying the community rather than posting edits, read quietly, learn what styles people like, and save your questions for the comments where you bring no links and no pitch.
What To Avoid
Do not advertise your YouTube, Instagram, TikTok, or any other social media unless you are a verified user, because rule “No advertising” removes those posts. Do not spam, because “No spam” is a stated rule. Do not post edits of anything outside anime or manga, because “Anime/Manga only” limits the community to those two. Do not post AI edits, AI art, or AI scenes, because “No AI” bans them outright. And stay civil, because “Be civil” asks you to follow community guidelines.
A note from Anthony
The verification carve-out in “No advertising” is the detail that caught my eye, because it means promotion here is not flatly banned, it is gated behind a status you have to earn first. I also respect how plainly “No AI” is written, since that tells me this community cares a lot about human craft. There are no observed top posts for this one, so I would treat it as a place to learn the room slowly rather than a place to launch anything.

Common questions about r/Animeedits
Can I link my YouTube channel in my post?
No, not unless you are a verified user. The rule “No advertising” only allows advertising from verified users, so post your edit without the link and look into verification first.
Can I repost an edit someone else made?
Yes, the description allows reposting, but you must give credit to the original creator.
Are AI-generated edits allowed?
No. The rule “No AI” bans AI edits, art, and scenes, so keep your posts fully human made.
Can I post edits of live action shows or games?
No. The rule “Anime/Manga only” limits posts to anime and manga edits.
I am a founder, not an editor. Is there any safe way to participate here?
Only in a non promotional way. You can read, comment civilly, and learn what editors care about, but any advertising requires verification and anything that looks like spam is not tolerated.
