It would be great to be able to add more animes and characters for those who support, since I think there must be several that you have many animes and characters that are their favorites and they have to carefully choose which one to add to the list. An example with me Rozen maiden, I love all of them: Shinku, Hinaichigo, Souseiseki, Suiseiseki and Suigintou, but I must choose Shinku because I can no longer add more:(( Please consider.

I'm not sure why someone would need that many spots for favorites. I mean, if you have that many, it kind of defeats the purpose of having them in the first place.

Imagine you go to someone's profile and press the arrow for showing more favorites. Would you even bother going through all of them if there were 100 of each?

But to each their own I guess, and especially for people who support the site with a subscription. I suppose, having that option wouldn't be that problematic.

Maybe it will incinerate me to dust... But if I don't do it, no one can.

This would be nice but also just a suggestion for OP people make collages of their additional favorite characters and add it to their about me section if you'd maybe want to do that :).
have a nice day

MAL used to have 5, then they had 10, now they have 20 for supporters. 20 is already too many, it devalues what it means for an anime to be a favourite. Any more would just make things even worse. If you have that many favourites just list them in your about me.

I agree and it's free to do that to write your favorite charters/shows in your about me section.

Yeah I canceled my subscription when I realized you can only have 20 favorites. Kind of lame when you watch alot of anime and have favorites in each one. Should be unlimited.

It goes against the meaning of "favorite" tho.
If you really want to showcase more, you can use your About Me, or your Blog.

Nah as a supporter myself I agree that 20 is enough and the reason I find it enough it's the number of anime produced in a year counterbalance to allow to choose if someone want to change like 10 fav every year and keep 10 permanently it's a good trade. More than that just become pointless.

not that you will have to select the infinite number of favorite shows/characters.

I don't think we need 20 favourite anime or manga's. Maybe for the characters though.

The subscription is not here to give you extra features, but just to show your support to the site (which is why it's named "MAL Supporter").
The extra features are simply a small thanks from them, and you can replicate them with a few scripts yourself, anyway.

Oh, and it's 3$, not 5.
