@Deividas: my time zone setting is Asia/Beirut. Hope it helps. Could it be that me setting it to be invisible actually causes the issue?

Edit: if I did, I mean, I don’t remember, though I did intend to.

I would like to suggest a new achievement for anime titles currently tagged with the Anthropomorphic theme. Right now there are over 550 titles and certain to be more as MAL staff update existing entries, so there is plenty to choose from.

In the Completion by month section, when you select a month, underneath Anime completed in (let's say for) December 2022: (XX), can there also be an average rating for all the anime completed in that month?

For me, I've completed 55 anime in that month, but I'd like to see what the average rating is for what I've given so that I can compare it to my score and the scores given to other months. This can give an indication of the trending direction of my mean score, whether it be up or down.

It won't be fun for me to have to calculate the mean score of 527 titles that I completed in October 2020

@Deividas has dark mode for the site been suggested before? Seeing how blindingly bright it is at 3am, I'm sure it would be an awesome addition if the background was a darker shade of grey. Otherwise I have to use Dark Reader, which is good but it ruins the graphs (see below). A settings page that stores the setting on our browser would be good.


If you do go with the idea of adding in a settings page for the site to control dark mode, could we get the option to customize colors of graphs and charts? Like how you can customize the color of your profile stats with MAL supporter.

In the Favorite types section for anime and manga, can you add in a small filter to select which sections of our list we want to be included? Like small boxes running across up top to choose from or to exclude (think Anime Search advanced filters)?

I'm currently trying to get exact numbers on what I've completed, but the pie chart displays everything in my OH and CW (& dropped?) lists as well. It says I have 2468 MVs in my list, but I have around 900 or so On Hold. It would be nice to see how much I have completed just by filtering the pie chart.

Dunno if unpractical or too difficult or previously suggested, but it would be nice if on Favorites also show Favorite Director, Original Creator, Script, Character Design and Music (I mean music as staff position) - and perhaps other positions like Animation Director/Chief Animation Director, Art Director/Background Art, Mechanical Design/Prop Design...
Well, I'm sure a lot of people would like to see the voice actors too... but at least seeing Director would be nice.

Suggestion: I asked in support about this and I just got an idea. I think I have a new way to overhaul the global stats page.

Firstly, we should make the main header slightly larger and make it bold text (maybe all caps?), and maybe the break between the header and the body a shade darker or thicker to make it more apparent.

Secondly, we should split the page into 2 sections (both with main headers followed by subheaders for the graphs);
1) Website Statistics: This includes Active users, Queued users, Queue size through time (maybe rename this queue size over time?), and maybe another statistic about daily and weekly average user updates so you still have the 4 stats up top?

2) Anime and Manga Statistics: This includes Anime entries, Manga entries, and both rating distribution graphs. Underneath the entry counts, there should be a list of all the entry types in a list or table (see example below)


Currently, the entry types are the only part of the DB that don't have a number to them in A/M Search (though AWCc's site does display the anime stats). Since you have the total entries displayed up top, I'm sure the site keeps track of the entry types as well.

Even if you want to keep the global stats page how it is, just having a breakdown of the anime and manga entries count would be super useful

A little suggestion for the "Total Time Spent" anime achievement -- would it be possible to still display the days spent after reaching the maximum level? This achievement is the only way I know of to track my "time spent on new / non-rewatch anime." So having the mouseover on the bar show something like "Maximum Level! (382.76 Days)" would be quite informative.

Since MAL has added dark mode now, it would be nice if there was an option to make the exported graph have a transparent background so it could work on both light and dark modes. You can see how bad it looks when you get to a profile where they are using the graph but with the opposite background color of what your settings are (light mode graph / dark mode graph).

Do achievements only count for Completed manga? My achievement says I'm at Romance Level 3, and thus read exactly 40, but my Favorite Genres section says I've read 419. The same goes for time spent, it says I've read for about 101 hours but I have 1600 in just the Romance genre alone. My only other idea is that it's only manga I've specifically rated, because I don't do that very often. Is there any way this can be changed to include all manga?

@Kashema1

I'm pretty certain that in almost all cases, anime and manga titles do not count toward an achievement until a MAL user has completed the title in question. The only one I know of off the top of my head that counts titles you haven't finished yet is the franchise one for anime. I found that out by seeing someone have the One Piece TV series (currently airing, 1000+ episodes) count toward it.

It does. But it does make sense, as the achievements are intended to encourage completion of titles.

As for the achievements based on time spent reading or watching, those do include incomplete titles. And one point of confusion to clear is that these are probably listed in DAYS, not hours. So it's not saying you've only spent 101 hours reading, it's saying you've spent 101 DAYS. Does that make sense? The next level of that achievement is achieved at 182.5 which would be.... half a year of your life spent reading the titles on your manga list.

The Romance achievements also really need to count Boys Love and Girls Love entries.
MAL assigns those genres to gay romances INSTEAD OF the Romance genre (rather than in addition to it), which seems dumb, but since that's the route they're going, the Romance achievements should recognize this and count Boys Love and Girls Love entries as progress towards the Romance achievements as well.
It's a bit less glaring for manga achievements than anime since with manga Boys Love and Girls Love at least have their own dedicated achievements but even there it's kind of unfortunate for (probably unintentionally) conveying the implication that gay romance "doesn't count" as real romance.

Ecchi - shoujo - hentai achievements still not going to happen?


The simple watch 20/50/100 ++ achievements of a genre are nice but nothing really special. The Mean score achievements for example are much more interesting I think.
So instead of making a simple counting achievement for Ecchi/Hentai you could make this:

Kid’s Tag: 1 points
No Tag: 3 points
Ecchi Tag: 7 points
Hentai Tag: 10 points

Points total / number of completed shows = result
100+ completed shows required

If result < 1,5:

Cute and innocent
If only the real world could be like this…


If result >3 and result < 5:

I watch Anime only for the plot…
It’s not your fault that there is so much fanservice… Right?


If result >=5 and result < 9:

Only accidents! I swear!
Physics in Anime are incredible. When you trip you always cop a feel.


If result >=9

Hentai overlord
No use denying it! You know what you are…
Wait is completed shows like all completed entries?

Greetings to the people of GRAPH, would it be possible to make the 'Favorite authors' table on manga favorites not load automatically, it doesnt take longer than 10s, but overtime it becomes quite annoying, I rarely go down there for how much I look at the other informations on the same page (I also saw the pending suggestion to add a magazines table and I personally like it a lot, but I fear that no resolution on the authors table will make the page quite slow).
The authors table is also longer than a table for the actual manga, for me it is 462 itens larger than a table with all my manga would have.

Thanks for the time either way.

@laBelphe I disagree with this.

For example, Pokemon.

I have finished The original pokemon, but I have dropped Pokemon Black and White. Black and White IS related to pokemon, and I would hate if it wasn't included in there.

Same with Planned to watch, for example the Fate series

I have in my Planned to watch list the future Movie? TV Show? of Fate/kaleid liner Prisma☆Illya called "Fate/kaleid liner Prisma☆Illya (Zoku-hen)".

What you are proposing is to remove that entry from the Fate franchise, which doesn't make any sense

@Z6890 If you're watching or have completed any title to a specific serie then any related tittles would show anyway.

Ex: If you're watching Pokemon or have completed any related title to Pokemon then any related title to that will appear nonetheless.
In my case I have watched S1 of X show and dropped the S2 and the related titles to that series still appear.

And with the Planned list, my logic was if I didn't start/seen anything related to that why would I care for any related titles about that.
If you have seen any of Fate then "Fate/kaleid liner Prisma☆Illya (Zoku-hen)" will appear on the related titles section.
(In fact I just checked your A+ profile and there it is.)

Plus the changes were already made in the site a couple weeks ago.

Less of a suggestion and more of a clarification question.

The current formula for the pervert achievement is "100 ÷ anime completed × (erotica anime completed + ecchi anime completed × 2 + hentai anime completed × 4)." I wanted to know whether this is a typo, a misunderstanding, or purposeful.

The How to Use Genres/Themes gdoc for the site lists the explicit genres as "Ecchi, Erotica, Hentai" in order of increasingly explicit sexual content. Thus, shouldn't erotica titles, which are more explicit than ecchi titles, have twice the weight of ecchi titles? It would make more sense to do "100 ÷ anime completed × (ecchi anime completed + erotica anime completed × 2 + hentai anime completed × 4)."

Also, the manga version of the pervert achievement states the formula is "100 ÷ manga completed × (ecchi manga completed × 2 + hentai manga completed × 4)." Has the formula been updated to include the erotica tag as well, and if so, did this line in the achievement description just get overlooked when the formula itself was updated?

Thanks.

Would it be difficult to add an option to show missing titles for titles in PTW? Recommendations often start with a spin-off instead of the original title (e.g. my manga recommendation offers me to read Innocent Rouge Gaiden), which means I'll have to add the original entry manually as it'll never get recommended to me.

Please bring back the grouping of missing titles. While I don't necessarily agree with the change of including "Other" and "Character" relations in the missing titles (because they are mostly crossover garbage), I can see why someone would want to have them included. However with the lack of grouping it just makes the list unncessarily long. I see that it at least only counts every one of the missing titles once, but having them multiple times all over the place is more annoying than actually helping.

Also, it seems this update broke how titles on a users' PTW are counted, because now it shows a bunch of shows that are not yet released and on my PTW as missing titles. Would be cool if at least this could be fixed, because its more annoying than actually helping right now.

I guess not grouping titles allows to show every related entry under each since that wasn't happening before? If not I agree with Robbi, it's kinda messy.

Another thing that could be added (if ever possible) it's the option to hide (and don't count) the Music stuff at least. I hate it, I'm not on the site for watching music videos :P

@Bogdan6222 Because the grouping was very buggy. We had to hide some titles and relation types (character, other) to prevent big franchises from merging.

Now you can actually see all relations. That's the main reason why the list is longer. Plus, you'll no longer see relations you don't need to see yet. For example, if you're watching season 1, you won't see seasons 3, 4 and so on.

Technically there are no duplicate relations, they can have different relation types:

  • "Ajin" / Relation: "Ajin Part 2: Shoutotsu" / Relation type: Summary
  • "Ajin Part 2" / Relation: "Ajin Part 2: Shoutotsu" / Relation type: Alternative version

I think @Bogdan6222 means something like this (taken from my list). The same entries can show up multiple times, which I agree is annoying, if it happens a lot. Precure and Precure Max Heart are very weird, because they are season 1 and 2, so now I get the same alternative relations from both of them, which feels pointless and unnecessarily elongates the list of missing titles. The same can be said about Kirara Fantasia, which is linked ten times from ten different shows, but they all form a cluster from there, so having them grouped would be better.

But I get how it can be a problem from a coding perspective; you're building the tree of missing titles to be only one step deep, so it's hard to put stuff into groups if there are more entries in the chain that would form the connection (let's say I watched an MV for season one and one for season three, but haven't actually watched the seasons themselves, so how would the code know from just a single step that those entries are related?) Maybe group them if there is only a single show in the middle, so that stuff like Kirara Fantasia gets thrown into a group with everything, but something like my MV example would still be separate? Though I don't know how that would handle the Precure stuff, because while some of the Precures link each other, most of the movies don't... So I can't say with confidence that this is the solution to the problem.

Still, I think I prefer the previous version. Now it's just all over the place and for me it feels like it'll only get worse, the more I watch. With the inclusion of Character and Other we also get a lot of stuff that doesn't really matter thrown in, like crossovers which then in turn would require a user to watch the other show that was crossed over with (is that the correct term?) to be watched as well. Which has the tendency to quickly accumulate a large amounts of shows, even if you just watch the one directly related to ones you have already seen - after all, after the next update you might just get more missing titles.

@RobbiRobb We're simply copying the data from MAL:

  1. https://myanimelist.net/dbchanges.php?aid=603&t=relations
  2. https://myanimelist.net/dbchanges.php?aid=1929&t=relations

There are duplicate titles, but all relations are separate rows in the database:

  1. "Futari wa Precure" (603) + "Yes! Precure 5" (1932) = 603,1932
  2. "Futari wa Precure: Max Heart" (1929) + "Yes! Precure 5" (1932) = 1929,1932

These relations can have different relation types and can't be merged/removed. See the example in my previous post.

"Kirara Fantasia" is linked to multiple franchises. Even the previous version would have duplicates if all the types were included.

The previous version was just a cluster of titles with no order. Now it's much easier to find what to watch next, and you can see the relation type in the tooltip. Duplicate titles can be hidden, so it's not a problem.

I want to provide some feedback on the recent changes to Missing Titles. Personally, I really found the full franchise view helpful even though it excluded certain types of relations (Character, Other, etc.). And I liked being able to see all future seasons and movies/OVAs/etc., even if they weren't directly prequels/sequels to stuff I'd already seen or was currently watching. However, I also understand how the current setup at the individual MAL entry view is cleaner and allows for expanded relations to be incorporated, and I think the new relation filters are great for customizing that view to individual users' preferences. So I see value in both approaches, which makes me wonder if it would be possible to implement a setting or toggle that allows users to switch between the franchise-level view (maybe with a note or warning that certain relation-types are excluded) and the entry-level view. It seems like the franchise logic is still in place on the profile page, so hopefully something like this would be relatively easy to implement. Regardless, I find MALGraph to be a valuable resource for me and appreciate the time and energy you volunteer towards maintaining and updating it.

@Aruchi-sama Move some titles to "Watching" or "On Hold" if you want to see their relations. The data is static/cached, so we can either exclude or include planned titles for everyone. We would still need to load all the data, even if there's a toggle on the client side. The tab is already crashing for some people.

@HDAsylum Same with your request. We would need to create and load two lists to make them togglable on the client side.
