Who writes the articles on this site?

Is the content on this site AI-generated?

First drafts are AI-generated. A human editor fact-checks, places any necessary spoiler tags, and edits for clarity and tone before publication. We disclose this openly because readers should know where their content comes from.

How do you check facts for AnimeRecap?

Plot details are cross-checked against AniList and MyAnimeList entries, and against the editor’s familiarity with the show. Technical claims in blog posts are verified against documentation, source code, or direct testing.

How do you decide a season’s rating on AnimeRecap?

Each season’s rating starts from the AniList community score at the time of writing and is re-evaluated during human review. Ratings reflect how we think the season landed, not just popularity.

How do I request a correction?

On AnimeRecap, every recap has a "Suggest an edit" link at the bottom. It opens a pre-filled email with the page URL. You can also email support@zzin.dev directly for any site. Factual corrections are typically addressed within 1 business day.

Can I suggest an anime to recap?

Yes. Use the Contact page and send us the show name. We can’t cover everything, but suggestions shape our queue.

Where do cover images and scene frames come from?

Cover art and scene frames come from official trailers and promotional material, used under fair use for commentary and criticism. Anime titles, character names, and related properties are trademarks of their respective owners.
