older/archive torrents tend to be slow like that, they're not usually heavily seeded.
Other torrent slowdowns may include: how fast is your internet connection? If you're on a slow DSL your 13K up may be saturating your upload, in which case you may be choking your own download. Try setting your preset to "cable/dsl slow" and turning the upload speed down to 10 if your connection is slow dsl.
May also just be the number of peers you're connected to. You might increase your max uploads (if you've got faster upload than you're using), as this would probably increase the number of download threads you'd get tossed.
But actually, looking at the overall torrent stats for that torrent, there's currently 26 seeders and 400+ downloaders... so it's probably just that since you've got a lot of the file you're not finding many people who have more of it than you and who have upload available. As your screenshot shows, you've got 85% and the average is 53% done ... so it's understandable. If it remains that slow for long periods of time, you might be well-advised to try stopping and restarting your download.
of course, it could be something else entirely i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif
btw, this might be better posted in the "bt support" category.

Haha that's the stupiest thing you could do, Go to IRC -> Rizon -> #Animeone -> theninja bot -> /msg AonE|Theninjabot xdcc send # (number of episode), always maximum speed there, done in a few minutes, or go DC++, it's so dumb to download big packs with episodes, there are faster options
