MyAnimeList is a community of anime fans that was built by fans, for fans. Our anime/manga databases, news articles, community discussion spaces, and social media pages have been moderated by volunteers since MAL was first created 20 years ago.

We strongly believe that anime fans know anime fans best: A community thrives most when it is led and managed by passionate and experienced members who want to stay involved.
