The anime tracker that
gets the episodes right.
Anime is where most trackers fall apart: wrong episode titles, seasons stitched together in the wrong order, thumbnails that spoil an arc you have not reached. Couchmark lays TheTVDB's aired-order episode names over TMDB's seasons, so your list looks the way the show actually aired.
Anime support that goes
deeper than a genre tag.
Cours, split seasons, absolute numbering, 300-episode runs: anime is catalogued like nothing else on TV. Couchmark handles it instead of pretending it is a normal show.
Episode names as they aired
Where TMDB lumps or mangles an anime's runs, Couchmark fetches TheTVDB's aired-order English episode names and lays them over the seasons you already know. Real titles, right order.
History that never desyncs
Couchmark swaps names, never numbers. Season and episode numbers stay exactly as they are, so every episode you marked watched stays marked, whatever the metadata does.
No twists in the episode list
Anime titles love to spoil their own twist. Spoiler-free mode blurs the thumbnails and titles of unwatched episodes until you mark them watched.
An Anime filter built in
Flip the Anime filter in Discover and browse anime only: no wading through everything else to find your next series.
Bring your history along
Import your watched history from TV Time or Trakt. Imports are additive and safe to re-run, so nothing gets duplicated or lost.
Hundreds of episodes, zero lag
A season with 300 episodes scrolls as smoothly as one with 8. Long anime runs are exactly what the episode list is tuned for.
How the TheTVDB merge works
TMDB is a great database, but anime often reaches it in a different shape than it aired in: split cours merged into one season, renumbered episodes, missing English titles.
When you open an anime, Couchmark's backend matches its TMDB seasons against TheTVDB's aired order. When the numbering lines up one-to-one, the English episode names are copied straight over. When a show counts straight through (episode 245 instead of season 12, episode 3), Couchmark maps that absolute numbering onto the seasons you see. In both modes the numbers you track against never change; only the names get better. That is why your watched history can never desync.
And when a clean mapping does not exist, Couchmark does nothing rather than guess. A few mega-runs, One Piece being the famous one, are catalogued so differently on each side that no mapping is safe; those shows keep standard TMDB data. Wrong-but-confident metadata is how trackers got anime into this mess in the first place.
