Hello guys! I’m wondering what you guys are using and which anime tracking sites do you deem the best. Currently I’m using MyAnimeList, used AniDB but later on still returned to MAL even though AniDB seems more advanced. Not saying that MAL is bad, but I’m wondering if there are any alternatives worth using/supporting instead
i am not one to rate anime with stars or take notes. i use sonarr to grab anime and it has coincidentally turned into my anime tracker.

If you’re looking specifically for a tracker, try monthly.moe. It’s just that, a very nice tracker which doesn’t try do anything else (it will still show you links to AniDB, Anilist, MAL etc. on each show’s details page)
I still use anilist with MAL sync.
I use Anilist because it has the best API. The best API means that it has first-class support across every single app in my anime “stack”:
- AL-Chan (Android client)
- MAL-Sync (Webextension)
- Miru (Desktop anime viewer)
- Saikou (Android anime viewer)
- Saikou TV (AndroidTV anime viewer)
- Tachiyomi (Android manga viewer)
I also really like Otraku on android and apparently its also available on ios
The big two are Anilist and MAL. Both have their pros and cons. Anlist supports a variety of rating approaches (particularly nice if you want to do sub-integer rating), but MAL allows greater customization of your list.
Usually it’s really more of a matter of how you interface with them (or others) since by and large their core functionality is pretty similar across the board.
Sub integer rating sounds like a nice thing! Sometimes I miss the 0.5 step and simple 1-10 ain’t really enough. I’ve used more rigorous scoring to achieve a better view of what I liked more on MAL which is a good thing, but nevertheless, I still miss that .5 I just might give Anilist a shot, I hope it supports importing from MAL
Hi, I migrated from MAL to Anilist a few years ago, I’m pretty certain it does import from MAL
