Which Anime and Manga List Services Do malupdaterosx.moe Apps Support?

Updated

The apps from malupdaterosx.moe support three list services: Kitsu, AniList, and MyAniList (MyAnimeList) — but not every app covers all three. If your library lives on Kitsu or AniList, every app on the site is relevant to you. If you use MyAnimeList, you'll want the iOS version of Shukofukurou or Hachidori rather than the macOS version of Shukofukurou.

Support by App

App Platform Kitsu AniList MyAnimeList
Shukofukurou macOS Yes Yes Not listed
Shukofukurou iOS / iPadOS Yes Yes Yes
Hachidori Automatic scrobbler Yes Yes Yes
KaniManabu Apple ecosystem — (Japanese study tool, not a list manager) — —

The site describes Shukofukurou for macOS as managing "your Kitsu and AniList Lists," while the iOS/iPadOS version manages "Kitsu, AniList and MyAnimeList Lists." Hachidori is described as automatically updating "your Kitsu, AniList, and MyAnimeList Library based on what Anime you are watching."

How to Pick Based on Your Service

  • Kitsu or AniList only: Any of the list apps works, including Shukofukurou on macOS. This is the simplest case.
  • MyAnimeList on a Mac: The macOS Shukofukurou page doesn't list MyAnimeList support, so check the iOS version or rely on Hachidori for automatic updates instead of manual list editing on the desktop.
  • You want updates without manual entry: Hachidori covers all three services, so it's the safest choice regardless of which list you maintain.
  • You're studying Japanese, not managing a list: KaniManabu is a separate vocabulary and kanji tool and isn't part of the list-service question.

What to Know Before Installing

All programs on the site are open source, so you can inspect, redistribute, or modify the code. The site is explicit that this doesn't mean free of cost: development relies on donations, and it points readers to a support page for ways to contribute. If cost matters to you, treat donation support as an expected part of using the software rather than an optional extra.

Support runs through the site's support forums, which are the place to report bugs, request features, or ask questions. Updates are announced via GitHub and Mastodon, so following either is the practical way to hear about changes that might affect service compatibility.

A Quick Decision Path

  1. Identify which service holds your list (Kitsu, AniList, or MyAnimeList).
  2. If it's MyAnimeList and you work primarily on a Mac, plan on the iOS app or Hachidori rather than desktop Shukofukurou.
  3. If you want your list updated automatically as you watch, start with Hachidori — it spans all three services.
  4. Confirm current behavior on the support forums before committing, since the site's app descriptions are brief and don't detail every feature.
