Anibu is a media library browser designed to provide a Netflix-like experience for your local anime collection. Frustrated by filename-based scrapers like Kodi or Plex, Anibu was developed with hash-based scraping instead, meaning you no longer have to worry about organizing and naming files the “right” way to be recognized properly.

Re-discover and explore your anime collection with a beautiful visual browser designed to quickly group your collection the way you want it and makes navigation easier through a quick-nav bar. Find the show you want instantly with the Instant Filter Bar and then see all the details, local episodes available, related anime, and similar anime with the TV-optimized anime information page. Never forget what shows you want to watch with a built-in local anime queue, and hide the shows you have already seen by marking them watched. Optional MyAnimeList support allows you to update your MAL watch list as you watch shows through the app.

Library management is easy: just set the folders you want scanned and Anibu will recursively find all recognized media files and hash them. Once library folders have been cataloged, Anibu can incrementally recognize new files on-demand and add them to the library. Hashing can take a while depending on the file size, number of files, and storage speed so Anibu supports pausing and resuming library scanning operations; just close the application whenever you want and the next time you refresh the library, Anibu will automatically resume from where it left off.

AniDB provides the anime information so a free AniDB account is required to use this application.
