| I am too lazy to move, maybe its good, maybe its bad. Who cares? |

| Anilist has a confusing interface, requires javascript enabled, and has a twitter feed |
| the 30 chara limit incredibly annoying but it at least encourages discussion instead of people only replying with "yes." "no." k." thats super boring. also i like the 2010s look on mal, it seems like we have more freedom and can do whatever. are the mods better on anilist tho? and not pedophiles? The ones here are gutter trash |

| I do have anilist since the beginning of this year. Kinda stumbled on it, because I am already using anichart for a very long time. Never realized that anilist was a thing until then. But I like MAL more. Imho using this site is a bit more comfortable. I like dropdownmenus (it's more for lazy ppl like me) and I like how customizable my profile and anime/mangalists are. There is just one thing I really hate here: the manga database is lacking af, so I never really continued to maintain my mangalist. Only updating it by chance. It seems anilist has some manga that are missing here, BUT(!!) also not every manga i am looking for so idc that much. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ And well, yeah maybe the UI could use a little update. But there are webbrowserextensions for this matter, so i am pretty happy rn. |

Ethitlan said: I take back what I said. Bible Black is there. I think you need an account to view NSFW titles so it might be that? Make an account and check again. If you did check with your account, then you might have some sort NSFW filter setting or something I'm not sure but Bible Black does show up for me. Here's the link: https://anilist.co/anime/368/Bible-Black I honestly can't be bothered to make an Anilist account just for that, but i did find this thread (https://anilist.co/forum/thread/12623) which confirms that there is in fact an 18+ filter setting in place by default. That option doesn't appear for me as a non-member, but the idea of only being able to turn it off by having an age-verified account makes enough sense to me. I won't argue about which database has more Chinese/Korean entries. I was only interested in the hentai aspect of your statement 'cause A) i'm a degenerate, and B) i don't care much for the former to begin with so i didn't bother to check for comparison; so i'll just take your word for it. Welp, i stand corrected, sooo my bad for not checking well enough :P |
| Personally I prefer the classic UI. So MAL for me. |
| BTW you only joined here just to say this? 😂 |
| You know you're probably right about most of that but the biggest hesitation I have is that Emilia has more favorites than Rem on there which makes me think the community there must be garbage. Although on the other hand male characters like Lelouch don't have 50 million favorites so it's possible the community there is more committed to watching anime rather than having 500K dead accounts that some kids made 10 years ago and never logged in again after adding all their favorite shounen protagonists. Maybe I'll give it a shot and see how I like the site. There's no rule that says I can't have accounts on both. |
 |
| Can we stop talking about dead sites? |
| All weebs creatures of the galaxy, hear this message. Those of you who listen will not be struck by western animation. You will no longer know hunger, nor pain. Your Anime have come to lead you now. Our strength shall serve as a luminous sun toward which all intelligence may blossom. And the impervious shelter beneath which you will prosper. However, for those who refuse our offer and cling to their western animation ways… For you, there will be great wrath. |
| Idk man, the community there is complete ass and you can't even have the satisfaction of trolling cos the mods can just delete any forum comments they don't like and ban whoever they don't like, I like the UI on both sites but again the forums are much harder to use than MAL's simplistic design. Honestly the only real advantages AL has over MAL is unlimited favourites and the stats page cos it's more convenient for checking your stats than MAL, most other advantages are irrelevant to me and certainly not worth dealing with the cancerous community to access. |
| The only plus from Anilist is that it has Umineko Chiru Eps 8 manga entry higher score than on MAL. So, no, MAL is better than Anilist. |

| Better forums? In what sense? In that they are 50% games, 50% the exact same threads you find here except even less interaction-friendly? And not to mention the specific anime discussions which are awfully scarce. Anilist does some things better than MAL, but user interaction is definitely not one of them. |
| honestly I just don’t see the point of switching over at this point |

| I think mal is better.It is easy to use than anilist. Everything is easy to update on mal and I also like the forum system |
| Thanks, i'll take my leave. Character limit because mods actually don't care about enforcing anything. |
My taste is trash. So is yours. |
| I use both, the two sites are pretty the same to me, but I prefer MAL, no particular reason |
| The only thing I don't liked about Anilist is thet their interface is shit as hell.. |
| Haven't found a good anime dialogue to copy yet!! |
| I've heard bad things about AniList's forum moderation. |
| OP joined MAL for something like this |

Ethitlan said: Tendo_GM said: They are, but AniList is way worse, it puts new anime very high up. It’s 2 top anime are both from 2021 That doesn't exactly say anything. Both of those are in the top 10 in MAL and the scores don't exactly differ by much from MAL and AniList. Plus, a popularity contest relates to the show being so popular that it gets given higher scores due to its popularity. Both Gintama and Fruits Basket are fairly popular but don't hold a candle to the likes of FMAB or AoT. They're also sequels so they're gonna get higher scores since it's the ones who like the shows continue on to watch it but that happens everywhere anyways. Also, I've gone through your MAL and it doesn't seem you've watched either show so I don't think it's fair for you to make decisions about the show's quality before having watched it. I never said that those 2 were bad or judged their quality, I just said that AniList’s rankings overall are pretty shit |
 |
| I have anilist too lol. But the forums and my time spend on this website can't be matched |
 |
| I use both MAL and Anilist but I like MAL better :) |
| It looks like a shitty phone website which makes it immediately worse. |
| MEA·MENTVLA·INGENS·EST |
| I wouldn't say that, but it has its moments/purposes. |
"Molly Ringwald" out right now - check my Linktree!  |
| both have their pro's and con's, i personally use both everyday because i enjoy the two sites almost the same. |
| MAL forum is more active, and... I don't need "better UI" or "better stat" or anything. I just need better API. Since I developed my own list app and I just need data. |
 |
| It LOOKS good, but MAL is just way easier to use. Maybe it's simply because we've been using it for so long, but I still think it's easier to navigate, and there's just more STUFF here. Plus the overwhelming bulk of the anime community is still primarily here and will be indefinitely. |

-Kimochi said: What about anime planet? Anyone use that? Yes, I used it as my second to go website. Especially for custom list and tag. Tag search engine is better than every other anime website. Also I have observed they have better updated character pages than mal sometimes and I have seen some mal users using it for manga listing (maybe they have better I am not sure) |

| If anything, anidb would be my choice. Their database is far more advanced and detailed. They even have insert songs listed (with information about composers etc) for each episode. |
| Dub = fake crap. Always. |
| Very inactive forums, anime news is not very reliable since its community based, most accounts are bots, has many entries missing, takes a very very long time for new titles to be approved(the less popular ones). The only thing it has going for it is the UI, which is again not like a whole lot by everyone |
I am a useless student of society. Tests are my body and Grades are my blood. I have done over a thousand assignments. Unseen by teachers, nor done properly. Yet, those hands shall never hold an outstanding grade. So, as I pray... Unlimited Homeworks. |
| MAL forums are much more active, so I'll stay here. |
 |
| I'll prolly use Anilist for all hentai shows and totally separate them from my MAL normal list. Are you happy now? |
   |
| I completely forgot I had Anilist. Yes, I’d say Anilist is better when it comes to scoring (aka you can have a 100-point score or a decimal score system) but other than than, MAL is better. |
 I hope no one I know irl sees my secret account~ Anyways, do I look cute in this outfit?~ |
| anilist also has flaws, saìtìtats are updated nly after 24 hours, and you can only update it manually for 2 times first o not being able to do it, the list design is better, anilist also has the function that you can see replies to a comment directly above it without it being randomly somewhere else n the thread, but as far as i know you can't messasge userss there, heaven's official blessing is in the top 15 despite being garbage too, this site has a better user interface, and anilist doesn't have recommendations, the answer is using both sites to gain all the advantages of both |
