Weeb Toolkit
Enjoy anime, manga and novels on all your devices, no matter the OS
A Well-Stocked Workshop.
Apps, players, downloaders, and the small utilities that quietly make everything else run smoother, across Android, iOS, and desktop.
Dedicated apps for anime, manga, and novels across every platform, plus the trackers that keep progress synced between them.
Most of these run on the Mihon extension system and ship empty by default, so you'll need to sideload a source repo before they show any content.
- Mihon is the actively maintained mainline, with Komikku as its most popular sibling
- Yokai, TachiyomiSY, and TachiyomiAZ each layer their own quality-of-life tweaks on top
- Usagi and Futon both continue where the original Kotatsu left off
- Kotatsu Redo and Kototoro are two more active forks in the same family
- AnymeX, Dantotsu, and Mangayomi all handle manga alongside anime in one app
- For files already on your device, Perfect Viewer, Kuro Reader+, and CDisplayEx work as offline local viewers
- Tachibk Viewer lets you inspect your Mihon backup files
- Aniyomi Local Manager and the Mihon Local Source JSON Generator both help configure local sources
- Kihon rounds out the toolkit for power users
For local files instead of online sources, Moon+ Reader, ReadEra, Librera Reader, Book's Story, and Readest all work well.
Check out CFW, JCoinx, and The Apple Wiki for guides on jailbreaking and sideloading.
qBittorrent can stream a torrent while it downloads, enable "Download in sequential order" in its settings, then open the file once a few chunks are in. TorrServer and WebTorrent work the same way if you want alternatives.
Online: Mangayomi, AnymeX, Seanime, Manga-tui (terminal)
Local: OpenComic, YACReader, CDisplayEx, Yomikiru, NeeView, MComix, SumatraPDF, ComicRack CE
Calibre, Freda, Koodo Reader, Okular, Readest, SumatraPDF, Thorium Reader, and Yomikiru all cover local novel reading on desktop.
Kindle Comic Converter preps CBZ files for Kindle displays, while send2ereader and Send to Kindle handle getting files onto the device itself.
Check the Kindle Modding Wiki for jailbreak-adjacent tweaks, our manga tools further down this page for prepping files, and our OPDS to E-reader guide for syncing a self-hosted library directly to your device.
Downloaders, converters, image search engines, tracker stat sites, and a corner dedicated to archived otaku history. If it makes your setup smoother without being a full app, it lives here.
Anime Downloader NX handles anime downloads from the command line. For manga, Free Manga Downloader 2, JAM, and gallery-dl cover most sources, while HDoujin Downloader specializes in doujin platforms.
BookWalker Downloader, Clip Studio Reader Downloader, Getjump, and Mangaplus Downloader NG each target one specific platform's quirks.
WebtoEpub, Epublifier, and Lightnovel Crawler convert web novels into readable ebook formats. For DRM removal, KeyDive, N_m3u8DL-RE, pywidevine, and Unshackle are the current standard toolset.
AnimeJaNai upscales anime in real time through mpv, while nativeres helps identify a video's true native resolution. Anicon for AniList generates custom icons from your AniList data, and Manami plus Shoko Anime both handle local library organization.
ACBR, CBconvert, CbxConverter, and ComicbookArchiveToolbox all handle format conversion and compression. For tagging, ComicTagger and Manga Manager organize metadata across your library.
DarkThumbs and Icaros fix thumbnail generation issues. MangaJaNai and its Converter GUI handle upscaling specifically for manga pages, while XpdfReader and Poppler cover PDF rendering needs.
Our FireStick Guide is a good starting point for setting Stremio up properly, paired with the Stremio Addons catalog for browsing what's available.
SyncriBullet, Animeo, MAL-Stremio Addon, and Simkl Addons sync your Stremio activity back to whichever tracker you use. Anime Catalogs, AIOStreams, Debrid Media Manager, Jackett Addon, and Addon Manager round out sourcing and organization.
Anime Bingo, due.moe, Konsumr, Related Anime, and WikiTimeline each pull creative or practical use out of your tracker data. Manga Adaptations links source manga to their anime versions, MyDubList tracks English dub availability, and Randime plus Spin.moe both help you pick something random to watch next.
SauceNAO, Trace (built specifically for anime screenshots), ascii2d, and iqdb all identify source material from an image. Slowpoke Pics is handy separately for comparing image quality side by side.
For visualizing your watch history: Sekai, Anistats, anime.plus, KitsuStats, and MAL Badges. For managing your list directly: AniCheck, AniListDiff, AniTools, aniTrakt, and MAL Exporter.
CosmoDNA, Digital World Archive (Digimon-focused), MAD ANGLER PRESS, Media Monster, MercuryFalcon, Otaku Archive (by the Anime World Order team), Otaku Print Archive, The Magazine Rack, Tuxedo Unmasked, Wiz Kaleb, and Zimmerit preserve otaku print media, scans, and history across genres.
80s OVA, Anime Magazine Archive, Anime Preservation Society, Animétudes, Anime World by Tim Eldred, and Let's Anime all dig into production history and rare archival footage. For official art specifically, check our Art page.
Manga: Comic Bibliographic and Cover Archives and MANGA bookshelf catalog Japanese print history.
Games: Old Game Mags, Forgotten Worlds, Gaming Alexandria, and the VGHF Archive preserve gaming print and cultural history.
Anime V.H.S Bot, Daiba Tadashi, Retro Gamer Art, Game Vecanti, Memories of Homepage, Retro anime Lovers, and VideoGameArt&Tidbits all post scanned ephemera and archival finds regularly.
Run your own library instead of relying on someone else's server, with a client for nearly every platform and a few sync tools to keep everything talking to each other.
Anime: Jellyfin, Plex, Seanime
Manga: Komga, Kavita, LANraragi, Suwayomi
Novels: Kavita, Komga, Calibre-Web, Librium
Audiobooks: audiobookshelf, Booksonic, Storyteller
General file access: Copyparty
Plezy works as a general cross-platform client for most of the above. For Audiobookshelf specifically: Plappa and Prologue (both iOS). For Jellyfin: Jellyfin MPV Shim and Streamyfin. For Komga: Komelia and Komik. For LANraragi: Ichaival, LANreader, and LRReader. For Seanime: Seanime Tenji.
MAL-Sync bridges nearly everything. For Jellyfin specifically: Jellyfin-RPC, the MAL Metadata Plugin, and the Shikimori plugin. For Kavita and Komga: komf and the Komga Bulk Download Helper. For Plex: Plex to AniList Sync and AniBridge. Tailscale is worth having regardless, for accessing your server securely from anywhere.
Android apps built on the Mihon extension system (Aniyomi, Dantotsu, and their forks) can double as clients for Jellyfin, Komga, Kavita, and LANraragi once the right extension is loaded.
Small quality-of-life additions for your browser, covering anime streaming, manga reading, tracker syncing, and general image or privacy utilities.
animepahe Enhancer, Animepahe Plus, Anime Skip Player, Aniskip, Crunchyroll With Better Seasons, Streaming Enhanced, and Substital all improve streaming site UX or add skip-intro functionality.
All Manga Reader turns scattered manga sites into a unified reader interface. Image Max URL, Manganato Enhancer, and Similar Manga each fix a specific site annoyance or add discovery features.
MALSync auto-tracks progress across most streaming and reading sites. MAL Redesigned refreshes MyAnimeList's dated UI, and Web Scrobbler extends scrobbling to Last.fm and similar services.
