Meh took me by surprise and looks alright, however the favourites section really needs to be changed. I would prefer to have ALL of my favourites for show instead of 5 of them and the images are really blurry :/

With how excessively long some people's bios are, you'll be scrolling forever before you can get to any real information, which is not at all a welcome change. The rest I could get used to but that is a big problem. I would switch that information to the top and keep the profile info below it

>implying this wasn't a problem before when you had to scroll through a ton of worthless shit in order to get to a person's comment section

THE COLLAPSING ARROW IS THE SAVIOR OF THE MAL PROFILE THAT ALLOWS US TO ACTUALLY GET TO CATEGORIES WITHOUT SCROLLING THROUGH SHIT

everyone will understand one day... they'll know
Ya can be insta-warped to one's (or yours) comments section by clicking on "Comment" right under their prof pic now



That's one of the reasons I don't get why they put the arrows .-.

The only thing I dislike about this the fact that my favorites is in the middle of the page. It doesn't look good.

Oh, and I want to see my lists views too ;-;

Wow... it's just horrible. Even more unnecessary scrolling, clusterfuck of colours and useless info and just an awful placing of elements with no regard to their importance. And it's just plain ugly.

Let me guess, once again you can't choose the layout you want. It's that fucking drop down menu all over again. Only even worse.

Things I liked about it:
-Seeing manga and anime updates separately.
-Seeing a completion bar for the anime/manga updates.
-The next left side bar, down until the "friends" section
-Color coding for watching, completed, dropped, etc

Things I don't like:
-The favorites. It all just seems clumped together. Going full vertical like that with little separation between the columns is just "no". Plus, it just looks kind of weird being of different lengths.

-The anime stats bar. As someone who doesn't drop or put things on hold much, there isn't much point to it. I pretty much just see a blue rectangle with tiny green, red, and yellow spots on either side. It really doesn't do much for me. I honestly wasn't a fan of the old random blue bars either, but I don't think this is the answer. I did like having separate bars for completed, watching, dropped, etc. I don't like everything being lumped in one bar.

-Profile bios being on top of the page. I'd rather someone stats be the first thing I see, not a potentially long-ass bio.

If something is bad, it's bad. That is all. You can't justify everything by going "PEOPLE HATE CHANGE! THATS THE ONLY REASON THEY'RE COMPLAINING! THEY'LL GET USED TO IT!"


This is a downgrade to what we had before. People will get over it and move on but I think on a quality side this will linger on and maybe effect market share. I don't know how many other sites are in your market. When I see people saying stuff like deleting their favorites or about me sections to compensate for the lack of continuity of our profiles have now. Is pretty alarming.
You all make me feel like I'm just settling for something instead of actually liking it, ha hah! I'm not gonna lie; I do like the old layout better, but I do also appreciate this layout's functionality and some of the new perks. People will definitely get used to it and move on; we almost always do. Still, I do think it would be wise to take the more popular opinions to heart in this case. One being moving the About me section lower-- it really shows what our community values. We're here to share our lists so I'm not surprised to read that a lot of users wish to have their stats at the top.
Just those type of things.
I don't think everyone will ever be satisfied with everything-- I'm definitely not satisfied with everything-- but from this thread, I'm seeing some pretty unified opinions on certain things. Please take those to heart devs.

Enjoy your anime! | Witch Cafe Wisteria

It’s finally here! Months ago (back in May) we announced that we were planning to develop a new design for our Profile section that no one asked for. After pretending to accept but in the end rejecting the community’s ideas and feedback, we took to the drawing board and created requirements and design mockups for what we thought would make MAL look like shit. So after many weeks of pretending we care about what users think and pretending that we know how to design anything at all and numerous rounds of feedback that was given by people with equally shit taste as us, I’m now proud to announce and showcase the new profiles that no one really wanted. And even if they did, they didn't expect it to be this shit!



I fixed your OP, Xinil.
It's shit. It's a clusterfuck of shit. It's like someone shat out rainbows. Wtf is wrong with this design team? Stop trying to be something you're not. You keep messing with the site in unnecessary ways.

I like most of the new changes. I also like that I can add up to 10 favorites for my anime/manga. But what I don't like is the fact that you guys literally body slam the part that shows my favorites and last updates right at the bottom of my page. Meaning if persons would like to see my favorites they will have to scroll down through all my pics to do that.
I think the part that shows your favorites and last updates should be one of the first thing a user should see when they click on someones profile.

So if you guys can fix that, It would be cool.

I know that making new shit is exciting and that as members only of this community we do not own it but how about we just wait for a freaking minute. lets just think about those changes.

how does this update has improved things in any way with the manga/anime stats? also this design seems like some kind of lego thing.

sure it's not that difficult to get used to it but what is the point for this site to have, for example, the manga statistics and updates lower than the profile abouts? what exactly does this site inspire to be? myprofile list?
I don't get it, maybe because I don't own a smartphone/tablet to see how these changes help those users but honestly now what is your aim?
yes, modernize things etc but why like this? emphasizing this side in this site. you've been making changes for a while, we have gotten used to it but give us some insight why you chose these changes unless you think we are the third wheel between you and creativity.

This. Leftist ideals of shift kill websites that don't need to be given a public name. It's best to keep this site anonymous like it has been years ago. We are not Facebook or Tumblr. We are Myanimelist. This has gone way ahead of itself in nuance.

Aside from rage, actual gripes with the new piece of shit:
  • Having About Me on top. The stats should always be on top, what's the point of reading/skipping a bunch of shit just to see that the user hasn't seen/read jack?
  • New general stats bar for anime, the five bar setup was much easier to read and looked nicer. The current bar is just a mess of colours that you actually have to look at and disect instead of just reading values off the old five bar setup.
  • Friends profile pictures on page, why on earth would you want to see the profile pictures of someone else's friends? You don't need to bloat profile pages with that shit. Just stuff it back in the tab like before.
  • Last anime updates, why would you poison my eyes with that random green? What's wrong with keeping the blue?
  • Fav anime/characters, why make a profile more vertical? It looks like ass in the middle there, especially if you don't have an entry in fav manga/character/person. At least it wasn't intrusive on the side if you lacked entries, but in the middle, you get exposed.
  • Comments, if you fucking dare make the comments infinitely scrollable... I'm getting mad just thinking about the possibility of that shit. Put the "write a new comment" back at the bottom before your dickfingers fuck that up too.
  • Left sidebar of forum posts...clubs, the main issue here is blog, back when it was on a user's profile, you could see the title of their blog entry and then make a decision on whether you wanted to read it or now. Now, you just have to wing it and hope it's a decent blog (if you can find it at all). To top it off, the top tab bar format from before still obliterates this faggot setup.

This would be acceptable, if favourites weren't buried at the bottom - they need to be at the top, or at least start near the top.

Edit: Also lose the Webdings-looking buttons below the profile pic

Edit 2: Also I don't read manga, it will always be empty, so make each favourites box removable to make room for more of important favourites. And favourites are COLLAPSIBLE beyond 5? Fuck that. No. No. No.
