Tracking anime & manga

Keep what you're watching and reading in one library, log episodes and volumes as you go, and get reminded when a show you follow airs a new episode.

EveryoneUpdated August 28, 2026

The Anime & Manga Library is where the Anime Realm keeps track of what you are actually watching and reading β€” with episode and volume counts, ratings, and a calendar that tells you when the next episode lands.

The Anime and Manga Library with tabs for All, Anime, Manga and Discover, showing a watching entry with an episode count, star rating and a plus one episode button, above a plan-to-watch entry.
One library for both. Log an episode with a single tap as you watch.

Tracking a title

  1. Add it

    + Add a title, or add straight from a Codex page. Linking to the Codex is what makes the rest work β€” it is how the library knows how many episodes there are and when the next one airs.
  2. Set a status

    Watching, plan to watch, and the rest. The library groups by status, so the three shows you are mid-way through do not get lost among the ninety you intend to start.
  3. Log as you go

    +1 ep after each episode. Rate it when you have an opinion. Volumes work the same way for manga.

The Airing Calendar

Anything in your library marked watching or plan to watch that is currently airing shows up on the Airing Calendar with its next episode, and you get reminded when one airs.

The Airing Calendar explaining that upcoming episodes for shows you are watching or plan to watch appear here when the title is linked to the Codex.
Empty until you have currently-airing titles in your library β€” it is driven by the library, not a separate list.

Nothing airing? Check the link

The calendar reads your library, and it needs the title linked to the Codex to know its schedule. A show added as free text will track your episode count fine but will never appear here.

Watch Party

Watch Party is for watching together β€” a member-hosted watch-along with a date, the episodes you are covering, and an RSVP list. Host one from here, or open a title in the Codex and host or RSVP straight from its page.

The Watch Parties page with a Host a watch party button and an upcoming watch-along listed under its date, naming the title, the episode range, the host and how many people are going.
Upcoming watch-alongs. Each one names the episodes it covers, so you know what to catch up on first.

See what everyone else is into

The library's Discover tab surfaces what the community is watching and rating, which is a better recommendation engine than a list of everything ever made.
