Isn't that the one that shows anime characters? Or is Anubis the "professional" version that doesn't show anime chars?

Yes that's Anubis. And yes you pay to not show anime cat girl.

That's genius.

Honestly the more Anubis' anime mascot annoys people the more I like it.

The point of this is to make things difficult for bots, not to annoy visitors of the site. I respect it is the dev's choice to do what they want with the software they create and make available for free. Anime is a polarizing format for reasons beyond the scope of this discussion. It definitely says a lot about the dev

Anime is only "polarizing" for an extreme subset of people. Most people won't care. No one should care, it's just a cute mascot image.

It says a lot more about the pearl clutching of the people complaining about it than it does the dev.

Anubis blocks all phones with odd processor counts, many Pixel phones for example.
