BOT IS @ IRC.RIZON.NET.
DL method: IRC only.
bAka-upload is another ‘distro’ bot, similar to A|Distro, but with not as wide a selection. It seems that it does not reside in any channels, but I was able to download from it without being in a particular channel. This bot’s speeds are incredible, about 2-3 times faster than a decent bot! It’s relatively up-to-date as well. Please note the existence of licensed material.

XDCC bots galore! James1179 provides bots to various groups, and you can see all his bots’ pack listings via the link above. You can download from almost all bots right in his channel, or you can go to the appropriate fansub group’s channel to get access to the bot. I tested one file, and download speeds are relatively decent.
As usual, download at your own risk. I don’t guarantee these bots to be free of licensed content. Otherwise, happy leeching 
Another day in the world of kiwiish, exploring the wonders of the internet and bandwidth consumption (xD), I’ve found a blog with a very similar intent as mine! Well, his is much, much better than mine, since he posts regularly, has a consistent format, and, most importantly, has lots of goodies for you hungry leechers 
I have not had a chance to fully explore ZMAng’s site yet, but from what I’ve seen, he offers you sources of anime including BT, DDL, FTP sites as well as XDCC bots. What impresses me is the time that he took to find out what sort of things you need to do before you can download from, say, a direct download forum.
For now, I won’t attempt to make any more comments. When I have some time (and I remember :P), I’ll be sure to fully explore this seemingly wonderful blog! Oh, how I love the internet 
Speaking of blogs, I should add some some links to my blogroll… lol.

Stumbled upon this today while I was looking to grab the latest release of Parfait Tic!!! (thank you ShoujoMagic!) (<3 Parfait Tic xD)
This xdcc bot offers releases from various groups, including MangaProject, ShoujoMagic, Manga-Koekje, SnoopyCool, Aku-Tenshi, AnimeWaves, Be With You Scans, Da Gurlz Translations, etc. etc. Let me just say, LOTS of groups
Anyway, just head over to the packlist to check out what this bot has exactly. It resides on the IRCHighway server, in various channels. Not sure if the bot is on any other server, but IRCHighway is your safest bet since that’s where most scanlation groups have their channels

LINK TO IRC CHANNEL (#animewaves @ irc.rizon.net)
DL method: IRC, Bittorrent, DDL
This group is not a fansub group, but a scanlation group. They are one of the groups who scanlated Ichigo 100%, though I didn’t read it. I did watch the anime, which wasn’t that great :\ The manga is probably much better, but I wouldn’t know, lol.
… Got off-topic, back to topic now. Their bot doesn’t have a lot, but it contains all their latest releases. They also distro via BT and HTTP. I ask that you avoid downloading via HTTP, because this method of distro costs a lot more than IRC or BT! That is why I am still debating whether to post about DDL sources…
*ahem* Back to topic (again). If you looking to download their older releases, simply check out their projects page, then find the title you are searching for. Usually, there will be a BT and/or HTTP link beside each chapter or volume, unless the title has been licensed or something.
