Bilibili

Bilibili is a popular video-sharing website based in Shanghai. Users can upload, watch, and comment on videos. It features a wide range of content, including anime, music, dance, science, movies, and video games. Bilibili is known for its unique "bullet curtain" commenting system, where comments scroll across the screen.

Initially focused on anime, comics, and games (ACG), Bilibili has grown to include a variety of content like documentaries, variety shows, and live streams. It also offers mobile games, such as Fate/Grand Order and Azur Lane. As of the third quarter of 2022, Bilibili had around 332.6 million monthly active users, with 28.5 million paying subscribers.

Bilibili History

Bilibili, founded in 2009 by Xu Yi, started as a fan community site for Hatsune Miku called Mikufans.cn. It was rebranded as Bilibili in 2010, named after a character from an anime. The site initially focused on anime, comics, and games, and became known for its unique "bullet curtain" commenting system.

In 2011, Bilibili changed its domain from bilibili.us to bilibili.tv. By 2012, it faced legal issues for unauthorized content but took steps to comply with regulations.

In 2014, Chen Rui became CEO and led the company's growth. Bilibili sponsored the Shanghai Sharks basketball team and acquired several e-sports teams, including Bilibili Gaming and Hangzhou Spark. It went public on NASDAQ in March 2018.

Bilibili expanded its reach by partnering with Sony in 2019, which bought a 4.98% stake in the company. The platform also started producing original content and signed various partnerships in the e-sports sector. In 2021, Bilibili was listed on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange, marking its second stock listing.

Bilibili Features

Here are the features of Bilibili:-

Real-Time Captioning System

Bilibili's standout feature is its real-time captioning system, known as danmaku or bullet comments. This system displays user comments as scrolling subtitles overlaid on videos. These comments move across the screen from right to left, similar to a bullet curtain in video games. Users can customize these comments in various styles, formats, and movements.

Advanced Subtitles

Bilibili also offers "advanced subtitles," which allow users to control video playback and dynamically change danmaku subtitles. This feature uses an ECMAScript-based API and is available only with permission from the video creator.

Comment Types

Emojis and ASCII Art

Bilibili users frequently use emojis and ASCII art to express emotions or add humor to their comments. These symbols enhance user interaction and have become a unique cultural element on the platform.

Cultural and Social Impact

While bullet comments enrich user interactions and meet leisure and self-expression needs, they have also faced criticism for enabling the spread of hateful messages. Despite this, they remain a core part of Bilibili’s community experience.
