Personalized Anime & Manga Discovery
Indoga is a free anime discovery site built around two main concepts: giving you recommendations tailored to your watch history, and providing an interactive filter panel so you can narrow down exactly what you're in the mood for right now.
Requirement to use it: You need to have a public AniList or MyAnimeList account. You don't need to register or create a new account on my site at all, just drop in your existing AniList/MAL username and it generates the recommendations on the fly.
How it works
Indoga connects to your AniList or MyAnimeList profile and reads everything - your scores, your favourites, what you've dropped, what you've rewatched, what you plan on watching. From all of that it builds a taste profile: the tags and genres that define what you enjoy.
Every recommendation is scored against that profile. The match % next to each title shows how closely it fits your preferences specifically. And for each result you'll see which tags drove it - so instead of a generic "we think you'll like this", you get "this matched because you like: Psychological, Tragedy, Time Skip."
The Filter Panel
The filter panel lets you go from "show me everything" to "show me a short psychological thriller from the 2010s, available on Crunchyroll" in a few clicks. Here is what you can tweak to find exactly what you want:
- Content toggles: Four quick switches to show/hide sequels, toggle 18+ content, include/exclude your planning list, and filter out mega-popular titles if you're looking for hidden gems.
- Tag & Genre selectors: Most powerful tools on the panel. Pick any tags or genres you want to include, and the results will only show anime that have all of them. Or, flip it to hide mode to completely exclude tags/genres you don’t want to see. Combined, these turn the site from a basic recommendation engine into a highly specific discovery tool.
- Episode range & Release year: Set a minimum and maximum for both. Useful if you just want a quick 12-episode watch or something from a specific era.
- Minimum community score: An easy way to filter out poorly rated shows.
- Streaming service: Narrows down the results to what you can actually watch on Crunchyroll, Netflix, Amazon Prime, Hulu, Disney+, or HBO Max.
- Popularity influence: This lets you adjust how much a show's general popularity impacts its ranking on your list. Set it to Low to push obscure titles to the top, High if you want to lean into well-known hits, or Medium for a normal balance.
(Also, if you ever aren't sure what a filter does, just toggle Tooltips in the top bar, every filter has an explanation built in).
You can switch between three display modes any time also you can sort by match %, community score, popularity or release year - in either direction.
Stats & Compare Tabs
Besides browsing your recommendations, I added two extra tabs you can play with:
The Stats Tab visualizes your taste profile. It has affinity bars showing exactly how much each genre and tag influences your recommendations. It also highlights your Hot Takes (shows where your personal rating completely differs from the community average) and a Watched Timeline that organizes all your completed anime by decade and year it released.
The Compare Tab lets you see how compatible you are with a friend. Type in their AniList or MAL username and it instantly calculates an overall compatibility percentage. It generates a radar chart of your shared genres, and a deep dive into the specific tags you both love versus the ones that completely divide you.
