Our sources and method

Release dates, episode counts, studios and staff come first from Bangumi (bgm.tv), the reference database for Chinese and Japanese animation. We cross-check them with the platforms' official pages (Tencent Video, Bilibili, iQIYI, Youku) and, for novels, with publishing platforms such as Qidian.

Legal offers in France are checked title by title on JustWatch France. Chinese platforms that stream internationally, often missing from JustWatch, are listed separately, with no guarantee of French subtitles.

Manhua and novels published in France are checked in the catalogue of the Bibliothèque nationale de France, based on legal deposit: publisher, number of volumes and release dates.

Watch orders and the calendar come from each season's Bangumi entry. The weekly grid is built from episode dates, and it is hidden when the check is more than three weeks old.

Posters, covers and portraits are official visuals taken from Bangumi and AniList entries and used for illustration. Their rights belong to the studios, publishers and platforms.

Synopses, analyses and reviews are written for the site, based on the works themselves and the sources above. Reviews and ratings reflect Spidermas's opinion.

We only publish a date, a figure or an adaptation if it comes from a reliable source. When something is not confirmed, we say so, or we leave it out: for example, we do not map seasons to novel chapters without a solid source.

Guides separate information (synopsis, world, release) from the "My review" section, signed by Spidermas, which holds the review and the rating.

Some Amazon links are affiliate links: the site earns a small commission on purchases at no extra cost to you. They are always disclosed, and they never influence reviews or ratings.

Spotted a mistake, a date that has changed, a series that has arrived on a French platform? Write to us and we will fix the guide.
