Would be cool for company staff to be added, instead of having to go through countless entries. Really nit.

They need to create a separate list for manga and LNs. Insane that they add this before that.

Are music production studios not considered companies? This one is still listed as a person:

AnimeThemes.moe <- the largest collection of anime Openings & Endings on the Web
AnimeMusicQuiz.com <- guess an anime from your list by it's Opening/Ending music browser game

This is awesome because the studios themselves need love (not just the anime they create)

At first I thought I won't be using this feature at all because I'm not familiar with the companies, but turns out I know more than I know and not enough to add to my favorite...

This is a nice addition. Now, all there is left to add is opening and ending songs.

Someone needs to explain to me why the 5 million people asking for a favourite op/ed row can't simply take 2 minutes to write a list and put it on their profile.

A lot people singing praises for this change in the first few replies I read but I honestly think this is a terrible idea and implementation.

Studios are comprised of people, fluid and constantly changing, and most of the time not even actual employees of the company that everybody is favoriting. By and large we should not be celebrating and championing *companies* when it's the faceless and nameless people behind the scenes, that in many cases are freelancers and not associated with the companies in any other capacity. Obviously, we'll never know the exact impact of each individual animator and other staff members that are included in the credits, or even the names of everybody involved. But this isn't a solution to that, IMHO it's just creating another problem.

We can already celebrate many creatives, actors, etc. with the "Favorite People" section, and it should just be left at that. A move like this is reductive and will misinform people new to the medium of how the industry operates, while "stealing credit" from the people that are actually deserving of our praise.

Is it just me, or have certain companies just straight up vanished from https://myanimelist.net/anime/producer? So far I haven't been able to find Tezuka Productions, Studio Colorido, Zero-G Room, and a few AIC subsidiaries (there's probably more, these are just the ones I noticed). The pages still exist if I go to an anime's page and click on them, but they don't show up under the full listing. Hoping this gets fixed soon, since I search from that list a lot.

Nice.

Weird bug I found: Top-scored Anime for Square Enix shows "Kuroshitsuji Movie: Book of the Atlantic" in third place, but the link actually redirects to "Danshi Koukousei no Nichijou" (they have the same score so that's probably the reason, but it's still odd)
Rating things is overrated.

this is a really dope feature, now all I need is a favorite opening/ending list feature

so funny seeing them now since even the most favorited studio has less than 100 favorites currently, it’ll probably skyrocket in the next week though
AGREEEED!

Very cool update! Will there also be pages for manga magazines and publishers in the future? Just curious, since I imagine there's less demand for that.

Even if helping people is easy,

Enough time has passed to conclude that you wasted your time adding that feature. Favourite Anime/Manga/Characters/People worked because people can choose between thousands of worthy entries, but there aren't even have 50 notable companies to fill the first page of the list so you end up seeing Hentai producers in there.

Why did I only notice this now? :D One of the most needed changes. This really has been missing. You listed the companies in the anime details page ... and clicking on them only showed a boring list of anime created by that company ... and no company page. Great that they seem to exist now.

How about for favorite magazines or publishers? That would be nice so we could display our faves on our profile page as well as have a quick access to their MAL page.
