What you get
Filter across every dimension
Score, type, genre, theme, year, airing status, member count — stack operators (includes all/any, excludes, numeric comparisons) until the results match what you want. Filter state lives in the URL, so any query is shareable.
A watchlist that's yours
Track titles as Watching, Completed, Deferred, Avoiding, or BRR. Private to your Google account, synced across sessions, and never sold.
Ranking that surfaces hidden gems
A log-scale popularity formula keeps mega-popular titles from burying everything else, so quality scores from smaller fandoms still get a fair shot.
Try it without signing up
Filter rows stack into a single query. Results, stats, and your watchlist all read from the same URL state — every query is shareable.
Frequently asked

All catalog data comes from MyAnimeList via the public Jikan API. We are not affiliated with MyAnimeList.net.
How often is it updated?
A daily sync at midnight UTC refreshes the current and previous anime seasons plus the top manga pages. A quarterly job re-scores the full catalog.
Do I need an account?
No — search, stats, and the schedule work fully signed-out. Sign in with Google only if you want a personal watchlist.
How many titles does Shelf cover?
Roughly 14,800+ anime and ~25,000 top manga titles — the slice of MyAnimeList that meets a quality bar on score, scored-by count, members, and year.
Is it free?
Yes. No paid tier, no ads. The point is to explore the catalog without anything in the way.
