Where do the results and scores come from?

AniList is the primary catalogue; Jikan/MyAnimeList is the backup. Scores are source-specific, shown on a ten-point scale, and are not combined. Cached or bundled data may be older than live catalogue data.

Is the tool free, and what happens if a catalogue is unavailable?

It is free and requires no account. Cached or bundled candidates are used when live requests fail. Narrow conditions can return fewer candidates or no matches; they are not silently expanded to unrelated titles.

How results are selected

AniList is the primary catalogue; Jikan/MyAnimeList is the backup. Scores remain source-specific and use a ten-point scale. Open a profile to check its latest details.

The tool samples a limited candidate pool, then chooses uniformly among its visible entries. It does not sample every title or character in the world. Shuffle changes the pool; another spin uses the same pool.

Live requests have a deadline. Cached or bundled data can be older, and narrow filters may return fewer results or no matches. Missing episode counts and runtimes are unknown, not zero.

Your lists, history and feedback stay in this browser. Aggregate usage events help improve the tool; custom-list contents and import usernames are not included in those events.
