So basically, you don't want to use simkl unless they paid for an advertisement from celebrities and/or an article to be written about them? Its not that kind of service.


I didn't say Letterboxd paid celebrities, the reason celebrities used Letterboxd I guess because one of them did it out of self-discovery, and it take one celebrity to influence other Hollywood celebrities to get Letterboxd profile. And that's how Letterboxd gained the mainstream reputation they have. That's why I asked if any Hollywood celebrities have used Simkl or if any mainstream media have talked about it or did interview with the developer of Simkl to see if they got any mainstream reputation that Letterboxd got. Unless Simkl got some sort of mainstream reputation from all type of demographic (celebrities, mainstream media, influencers), then I don't know if I want to register for a Simkl profile. But thanks for talking it out with me.

They are actually pretty decent. What kind of trust? Data or privacy?


Mainstream reputation, I only know of Letterboxd because Hollywood directors, and celebrities used Letterboxd, but Simkl, I don't know what kind of reputation it has. Has any influencers, or any Hollywood celebrities used Simkl the same way Letterboxd was used by prominent celebrities. I mean unless the New York Times has written an article giving Simkl a critical acclaim the same way it did for Letterboxd, then I don't know if I should register for Simkl. I mean what is their mainstream recognition and reputation compared to Letterboxd?

A little disclaimer: I just registered for a Letterboxd profile early of this month, this is my Letterboxd profile, yep newly created. I mean I registered for Letterboxd because it has a mainstream reputation and it used by mainstream Hollywood celebs, unless Simkl got that same level of mainstream reputation and uses by mainstream Hollywood celebrities, then I don't know if I should register or not. I also have a Blu-ray.com profile (which I had since 2008). So.... yeah, you understand where I'm coming from on this.

I've already looked at the website before you linked it to me, how can I trust this? How come I never heard of this compared to Letterboxd? How come this doesn't get the same type of critical acclaim like Letterboxd? How come I can't find any info on this website on Wikipedia.

How do I know to trust this compared to Letterboxd???

simkl is an option


I never heard of this, is this anything similar to letterboxd (Wikipedia info here)? I can't find any Wikipedia info on Simkl, how am I supposed to find any information and website history on Simkl if I never heard of it?

Ah OK, I see what you're getting at. Yeah Anilist has it's own problem too, but at least they were nice enough to let Scott Pilgrim Takes Off and Lord of the Rings: War of the Rohirrim to be on their database and count it as anime while MAL refused to add both of them.

I have inconsistency problem with the way MAL, Anilist, AniDB, and ANN's Encyclopedia how they classified stuff as anime as I mentioned in my previous profile comment like did you ever watched Catwoman: Hunted? Because that movie wasn't classified as anime by ANN, MAL, Anilist, AniDB despite the movie was animated by OLM (the same studio responsible for doing Pokemon, and Yokai Watch) and it was directed by a Japanese director. Catwoman: Hunted is still not classified as anime despite all the stuff that would make it qualified to be anime, I mean MAL and Anilist (along with AniDB, and ANN's Encyclopedia) has classified Rankin-Bass's The Stingiest Man in Town as anime (yep, MAL has counted it as anime along with Anilist, AniDB, and ANN's Encyclopedia), and I mean that's the one of the few thing I have beef with when it comes to who get added it as anime. If Rankin-Bass's The Stingiest Man in Town can be classified as anime, then The Last Unicorn, and The Flight of Dragons should also be counted as anime because these were done by the same studio that did The Stingiest Man in Town, and Rankin-Bass did both of these films. If Nutcracker Fantasy can be counted as anime (yep, MAL has classified it as anime), then Rankin-Bass' Rudolph The Red-Nosed Reindeer, Santa Claus is Comin to Town, and The Life and Adventure of Santa Claus should also count as anime too because the stop-motion animation that Nutcracker Fantasy used is the same one used in all 3 Rankin-Bass's stop motion animation work too!!! So that's why I been ranting about inconsistency on what get classified as anime, and what's not. So I understand where you're coming from.

Personally, I don't watch much anime anymore, mostly just read manga.


Uh, may I ask why???

If you wanna hear me complain, feel free to HMU.


All right, what if I told you that Myanimelist/MAL, Anilist, AniDB, and sometime ANN's Encyclopedia sometime have inconsistent definition of what counts as anime, that one or 2 of them count that title as anime, and the other one doesn't count as anime in their database.

That's why MAL users aren't happy with MAL not adding Scott Pilgrim Takes Off when Anilist, AniDB, and ANN's Encyclopedia count it as anime. Oh and this is where it get really really messy.

I assume you know The Lord of the Rings: The War of the Rohirrim, right? Well MAL won't recognize this film as anime on their database. AniDB doesn't have that film as anime on their database. ANN's Encyclopedia count it as a US movie. But Anilist count it as anime. So you see how the definition of anime differ from the 4 websites I mentioned.

Oh, and here's something crazier, you know Dante's Inferno: An Animated Epic? Because MAL, Anilist, AniDB doesn't recognized it as anime. But you know who recognized it as anime? ANN (yep, ANN's Encyclopedia listed that movie as an OVA)!!!

You understand what I'm trying to point out here??? MAL, Anilist, AniDB, and ANN's Encyclopedia have inconsistent definition of anime and just like I pointed out above, even the definition of anime gets confusing and very inconsistent. I mean do you watch Kenny Lauderdale on Youtube? He has a video that talked about stuff that could be anime and breaking down the inconsistent definition of that term:



Turn on CC for the closed captioning, and you'll understand why MAL, Anilist, AniDB, ANN's Encyclopedia, and other websites you listed may have inconsistency on what counts as anime, and what counts as manhua. I hope you appreciate my response to you.
