Rewriting one crummy synopsis at a time.

6,740+ synopses uploaded, and counting!


What is MAL Rewrite?
MAL Rewrite is a project tasked with the goal of rewriting all anime and manga synopses in our databases. Yes, all. We think that trustworthy, well-written synopses by the community for the community is one important factor when deciding what to watch/read. Toward this goal, we hold two recruitment drives per year to recruit users who are also passionate about synopses and want to dedicate a little of their time to MAL in a productive way.

How do I get involved?
Interested in volunteering? MAL Rewrite is currently looking for:
  • Writers: Users who have an aptitude and passion for writing and producing superior content. English does not need to be your native language, but you should be able to write unassisted without using any translation tools or artificial intelligence. It's preferable that you've watched/read the series you're writing about.

  • Editors: Users who possess excellent grammar skills and are proofreading ninjas with a keen eye for detail and accuracy. English does not need to be your native language, but you should be able to write unassisted without using any translation tools or artificial intelligence. All editors must be good writers (and you can still write synopses as an editor, too!).

Ready to participate?
Submit the MAL Rewrite Application Form. We will evaluate your writing and/or editing skills, and if we find that you meet our requirements, you will be invited to join the club. Please note that MAL Rewrite is always recruiting. There is no deadline. Feel free to reach out to Red-Comet with any questions or concerns.

We look forward to your submissions! :)

Doesn't everything has an official synopsis, why not just use that?

@Captain-577

Oftentimes the official synopsis is inadequate in quality or contains blatant spoilers.
