Q1 What is AnimeDives?

AnimeDives is a free, comprehensive database of completed anime series from 2000 to 2026. We list only anime that has finished airing - no ongoing releases. Browse by year, search by title, and find your next completed anime series to binge-watch.

Q2 How do I find anime from a specific year?

Select a year from the homepage era picker, or navigate directly to /archive/YYYY. For example, visit https://animedives.com/archive/2021 to see completed anime from 2021. We have archives for every year from 2000 to 2026.

Use the search bar on our homepage to find the anime title and check its status. Only titles with 'Completed' or 'Finished' status are listed in our archive. You can search for any anime to see if it's finished.

Q4 Does AnimeDives host or stream anime?

No. AnimeDives is a pure informational directory. We do not host, embed, redistribute, or link to any anime media files. We only display metadata, titles, genres, and images sourced from public APIs for informational purposes.

Q5 How do I search for anime on AnimeDives?

Use the search bar on the homepage or visit /search. You can search by anime title, genre, or use filters like year, status, and minimum score. Our search supports partial matches and is case-insensitive.

Q6 What anime years are covered?

We cover completed anime from 2000 to 2026. Each year has its own archive page with a complete list of finished anime from that year. The current year page is updated regularly as new anime finishes airing.

Q7 Are all anime on AnimeDives really completed?

Yes. Our database only includes anime with status 'Completed' or 'Finished'. We actively filter out ongoing releases. For the current year, we include anime that hasn't aired a new episode in the last 7 days.

Q8 Where does AnimeDives get its anime data?

Our anime data is sourced from Jikan API, which provides metadata from MyAnimeList (MAL). We process and validate this data to ensure only completed anime are displayed in our archives.

Q10 Can I request an anime to be added?

AnimeDives automatically syncs with our data sources. If an anime is marked as completed in our source APIs, it will appear in our database. You don't need to request additions - our system updates continuously.

Q11 What does 'Completed' vs 'Finished' mean?

Both terms indicate the anime has ended. 'Completed' typically means all planned episodes aired as scheduled. 'Finished' can mean the same or that the studio concluded the series. In our database, both statuses mean the anime is no longer airing new episodes.

Q12 How often is the database updated?

Our database updates dynamically. Year archive pages refresh when you load them, pulling the latest completed anime data. News articles are published as they're created. The system checks for newly finished anime regularly.

Q13 Can I filter anime by genre?

Yes. Use the search page (/search) and select genres from the filter options. You can combine multiple filters: search by title, filter by year, select specific genres, and set minimum/maximum score ranges.

Q14 What's the difference between AnimeDives and other anime sites?

AnimeDives focuses exclusively on completed anime. Unlike streaming sites or general databases that mix ongoing and finished series, we provide a clean archive of finished anime. No spoilers from ongoing seasons, no waiting for episodes.

Q15 Is there a mobile app?

AnimeDives is a Progressive Web App (PWA). You can install it on your mobile device through your browser's 'Add to Home Screen' feature. The PWA works offline and provides an app-like experience.

Year archives are built dynamically by querying our data source for all anime that match the selected year and have a completed status. The page caches results for performance but updates automatically when new data becomes available.

Q31 What happens if an anime's status changes after being listed?

Rarely, a series may have a status update (e.g., a previously finished anime gets a sequel). Our system re‑checks statuses periodically and will remove the anime if it becomes ongoing again, or add it back if it completes again.
