The open databases and communities whose data powers AniScroll.

Credit where it's due

AniScroll creates none of this data. The entries, the artwork, the themes, the scores — all of it comes from open projects and the communities that have maintained them, mostly unpaid, for years.

This page names them. Some require it; the rest have earned it.

Data

  • AniList

    The backbone: entries, titles, synopses, cover art, scores, genres, season relations, airing schedule, characters — and your list sync.

  • fanart.tv

    Artwork, logos, banners and backgrounds. Also the fallback for episode thumbnails when no image of the episode exists.

  • AnimeThemes

    Opening and ending themes: song titles, artists, and the video clips playable in the Opening / Ending tab.

  • MyAnimeList

    The per-episode community scores shown on the Scores tab.

  • Jikan

    The open API that makes MyAnimeList data reachable.

  • Simkl

    Real per-episode thumbnails, including for the very long-running series other databases don't cover.

  • TMDB

    Additional episode thumbnails.

  • Fribb/anime-lists

    The cross-database ID map, without which none of these could be matched to each other.

  • AniSkip

    Community-sourced timestamps for skipping openings and endings.

  • Anime-Skip

    Opening/ending skip timestamps, as a complement.
