Frequently Asked Questions
I get quite a few emails, which is terrific, but also time consuming. Here is a list of the most common questions I get, from most to least:

WHY IS <ANIME NAME> ONLY RATED <RATING>?! THIS IS CLEARLY 10/10! DID YOU EVEN WATCH IT?!
I average my ratings from both AL and MAL, they are not my own ratings. Also, no, I have not watched every single anime on this website.
How are anime added to the website?
Each season, suggested, or randomly. I usually add each season of anime about halfway through (gives time for dubs to kick off). Around that time, I have a good list of suggestions that I add as well. As for the "randomly", sometimes I'll just look through streaming sites and add anime that I don't have.
Do you have a public API?
Short answer, no. The API is currently only for internal use. I would definitely need to beef up my back-end knowledge to make it public, which isn't going to happen in the foreseeable future.
Do you have a Discord Bot?
No, not currently. I have recently started messing around with programming one. It could be something released in the near future (but, who knows, cause life).
Is it just you, or is there a RandomAnime.org team?
Just me. This is a hobby website of mine. I will sometimes get help with design (since I'm awful at that), but top to bottom, code to content, is all me.
