This guide shows you how to watch HiAnime on FireStick. The steps work for all Fire TV variants, including FireStick Lite, 3rd Gen FireStick, FireStick 4K, FireStick 4K Max, and Fire TV Cube.
What is HiAnime?
HiAnime is a popular anime streaming site that caters to anime enthusiasts by providing a vast collection of shows and movies including movies and trending, subbed, and dubbed TV series.
It serves as a platform for fans seeking all anime entertainment at one place.
The platform’s attractive and user-friendly interface makes it easy to find content. The Home section contains anime pics in the spotlight, including new entries, the latest episodes of the ongoing series, and editor picks.
If you have a title in mind, the search feature at the top right helps you quickly find what you seek. One feature that makes HiAnime stand out among other streaming sites is the HiAnime Connect, a fan discussion board. You can connect with other anime fans as they discuss the plot, characters, ending, and other aspects of the content.
Like most streaming sites, HiAnime provides relevant anime information to help you choose a title. This data includes the country of origin, movie or TV, when the content was first aired, duration, and whether it is ongoing.

Attention FireStick Users
Governments and ISPs across the world monitor their users' online activities. If you use third-party streaming apps on your Fire TV Stick, you should always use a good FireStick VPN and hide your identity so your movie-viewing experience doesn’t take a bad turn. Currently, your IP is visible to everyone.
I use ExpressVPN, the fastest and most secure VPN in the industry. It is very easy to install on any device, including Amazon Fire TV Stick. Also, it comes with a 30-day money-back guarantee. If you don't like their service, you can always ask for a refund. ExpressVPN also has a special deal where you can get 4 months free and save 61% on the 2-year plan.

Is HiAnime Safe and Legal?
HiAnime is an unverified third-party streaming site. It would be best to exercise caution when streaming content on such sites. While we don’t have the resources to determine the site’s safety status, we can use an antivirus tool like VirusTotal to scan for suspicious files.
I scanned the site’s URL on VirusTotal. As shown in the image below, none of the 96 security vendors found anything malicious. However, one vendor flagged it as suspicious.
HiAnime is in a grey area regarding legality. The site lets you stream copyrighted content for free, which is too good to be legal.
FireStickTricks.com can’t verify the site’s legal standing because it is subject to several factors, including content sources, licensing and agreements, copyright laws, and location.
That said, we discourage streaming pirated content, as it goes against the law and could land you in legal trouble. We also urge you to use a reliable VPN when streaming anime on unverified sites. The VPN hides your online activity, masks your IP address, and encrypts your data. I use and recommend ExpressVPN.

HiAnime is mainly a browser-based streaming site. Although it offers an Android app for mobile users, it is not supported on FireStick. Therefore, we will use a browser to watch it on FireStick.
I tried the two widely used browsers on FireStick, the Downloader app browser, and the Amazon Silk browser.
While the playback was decent on both browsers, the Silk browser’s experience was smoother. Therefore, this post will use the Silk browser to watch HiAnime on FireStick.
How to Watch HiAnime on FireStick Using the Silk Browser
While several HiAnime websites are available online, the official one as of this writing is hianime.to.
Follow these steps to watch HiAnime on FireStick using the Silk browser:
1. Launch the Silk Browser from your Apps and Channels window.
2. Click on the search tab to bring up the on-screen keyboard.
3. Type the URL hianime.to, then click Go.

That’s all. You can start exploring the library and stream your preferred anime.

The HiAnime home page is easy to navigate, with well-organized menu options. To view the menu options, click the menu icon (three horizontal lines) at the top left.
The menu options will appear on the left of the screen. These include Home, Subbed Anime, Dubbed Anime, Most Popular, Movies, and TV Series.

Anime movies are divided into two sections: OVAs and ONAs. OVAs are original video animations made for home video releases and are not released on any media platform, television, or in theaters.
The content under the section ONAs is original net animations, commonly called web anime. The creators release these videos online without appearing on home entertainment channels, TV, or theaters.
Select any title on the HiAnime website and start streaming.
