I'm looking to buy myself one of those fancy smart tv's that allows you to use the internet and stuff. Quick question (maybe a dumb question): can you use such a television to access streaming websites (like kissanime) and watch anime on your tv? What about torrented anime, can you torrent anime through your tv or do you need to torrent them on your computer, put them on a USB drive and then watch them from your tv (assuming it has a USB port)?
I'm asking it here because I doubt this question belongs on either /a/ or /g/.

Buy a regular TV and use a Chromecast or other stick instead. Smart TV software can sometimes become outdated/incompatible with services with no future updates.
I can try to watch kissanime later on a smart tv in a few hours for you but its definitly impossible to do bittorrent since smart tvs only have like 1gb of space which is mostly used for 'apps'. Actually, there might be a bittorent app or some shit you can use and download to a usb plugged in but I doubt it though. Seems tedious as fuck to even if there is as you would have to navigate with a tv remote.

Thanks for the suggestion. Hadn't considered chromecasts yet.

Thanks, I'd really appreciate the effort. I'm probably going to sleep in half an hour or so, but I'll certainly see your report when I wake up tomorrow.

I was actually thinking more of torrenting an anime on my computer, putting the video files on a USB stick (or external harddrive) and linking that up to the tv. I was wondering if that'd work.
A while back I bought a Roku. Though the primary reason was to watch Netflix on my TV, I also set up a PLEX server on my computer to view all my torrented shows through my wireless connection on the TV. It even has an app to view content from sites such as kissanime.

Fire TV runs Kodi like a champ.
