Beste MyAnimeList-alternatief
The MyAnimeList alternative that actually plays anime
MAL is the canonical anime database — you log a series after you've watched it elsewhere. Moviefy reads the same MAL IDs (full Fribb mapping inside) but adds in-app anime streaming from MAL-native sources + multi-cour TMDB season mapping so episode lookups never break.

Why people switch from MyAnimeList
No streaming
MAL is a list. Moviefy plays the episodes — MAL-native vidsrcicu/miruro sources, no MAL→TMDB ID mismatches.
No tracking beyond anime
Only watch anime? OK. Also watch movies, TV, read manga, play games? Moviefy handles all 8 media types in one account.
Ad-heavy free tier
MAL is free with ads. Moviefy Premium is ad-free.
Forums-first, not modern
MAL UX hasn't moved much since 2005. Moviefy is built for 2026.

Start free trial →Frequently asked: Moviefy vs MyAnimeList
Is Moviefy a good MyAnimeList alternative? +
Yes — Moviefy was built specifically as a MyAnimeList alternative that fixes the most common complaints: no ads, full web app, and unified tracking across movies, TV, anime, books and games (not just TV or movies alone). Premium adds in-app streaming, family profiles, and PPV rentals that MyAnimeList doesn't offer. Start with a 14-day free trial — no credit card needed.
Can I import my MyAnimeList data into Moviefy? +
Yes. Moviefy imports your watch history, ratings, and lists from MyAnimeList (and most major competitors) via CSV export — so switching takes one upload and you keep every show, movie, and rating you've logged. Detailed import guides are in your Moviefy account settings under Import.
How much does Moviefy cost compared to MyAnimeList? +
Moviefy Premium is $9.99/month or $99/year (save 17%), with a 14-day free trial that requires no credit card. MyAnimeList's pricing is Free or MAL Supporter $2.99/mo. The Lifetime plan ($1,497 one-time) removes recurring fees entirely. Prices are localized via purchasing-power parity for users outside the US — most non-US markets pay 30-60% less.
What does Moviefy do that MyAnimeList doesn't? +
Three big ones: (1) in-app streaming from 9 source mirrors so you can watch inside Moviefy without bouncing to another app, (2) unified tracking across 8 media types (movies, TV, anime, manga, books, board games, video games, live) in one account, and (3) family profiles — up to 5 separate profiles per account with kid-safe content gates. MyAnimeList typically focuses on a single media type and outsources the actual watching to other services.
Is the Moviefy free trial really free? Do I need a credit card? +
Fully free for 14 days with no credit card required to start. You get full Premium access — ad-free, in-app streaming, family profiles, all 8 media types. If you don't want to continue, the trial expires automatically with no charge and your account drops to the free tier (you keep your data either way).
