    Kioku is a tracker for anime, manga and light novels that runs on your own computer. It is made first for Windows and works on macOS and Linux too. Your library lives in a database on your computer, syncs with AniList, MyAnimeList, AniDB, Kitsu, MangaBaka, Shikimori, Simkl and Bangumi, sends to Trakt, plays your episodes in mpv or follows the player you already use, reads your manga and light novels, and lets you watch together with friends. Kioku speaks English, Slovak and Czech.

    New in 2.29.0

    Finding what to watch and read next.

    • Discover asks what you feel like: light, cosy, a good cry, tense, scary and more, each a set of genres and tags. With a Kioku account, In the story finds titles by what happens in them, such as time loop or cooking. Pick one of these chooses at random from any search, and results show an anime's whole watching time.
    • Explore, a new tab of Discover (and a place you can add to the sidebar):
      • starter paths of ten titles in an easy order, for newcomers or a genre;
      • your Planning ranked by how well each title fits your scores, saying why;
      • series ready to binge;
      • every tag with what it means and how many of its titles you have seen;
      • award winners by year, kept by your server's moderators.
    • From your Kioku server: what your friends rated highest that you have not seen, next season's most planned, and hidden gems of a genre you like. Every pick says why it is there.
    • A title's page shows other works by the same director, writer or composer, and for an anime of a manga or novel, the chapter where the anime stops, as members say.
    • Home lists paused or dropped titles you were close to finishing. Schedule marks and filters finales. Seasons can group the season by studio. Top charts say how many you have seen. The library's More menu picks a random title from what it shows.
    • You hear when a manga or novel you read gets an anime, and when an anime you watched gets a manga or novel (Settings > Notifications > Sequels and adaptations).

    Download and first start

    System File First start
    Windows 10 and 11 Kioku-2.29.0-windows.zip Unzip it and double-click Kioku.exe. Kioku is not code signed, so Windows may say "Windows protected your PC": click More info, then Run anyway. Kioku adds itself to the Start menu.
    macOS 12 and later Kioku-2.29.0-macos.zip Move Kioku to Applications and open it. It is not notarized, so the first time open System Settings > Privacy & Security and click Open Anyway.
    Linux x64 and arm64 Kioku-2.29.0-linux-x64.tar.gz, Kioku-2.29.0-linux-arm64.tar.gz Extract and run ./kioku. Kioku adds itself to the application menu.
    Browser extension Kioku-2.29.0-extension-chromium.zip, Kioku-2.29.0-extension-firefox.zip Chromium-based browsers: unzip, open the extensions page, turn on Developer mode and choose Load unpacked. Firefox: about:debugging > This Firefox > Load Temporary Add-on (Developer Edition and Nightly can keep it for good).
    Kioku server (Linux x64 and arm64) Kioku-server-2.29.0-linux-x64.tar.gz, Kioku-server-2.29.0-linux-arm64.tar.gz For your own Kioku server with docker or podman: curl -fsSL https://git.toxik.space/Toxuki/kioku/raw/branch/main/deploy/install.sh | bash -s -- --domain your.domain, or extract the archive and run ./kioku.sh install --domain your.domain. Its README.md covers Nginx Proxy Manager, the firewall, updates and backups.

    SHA256SUMS lists the checksums of every file. Kioku opens in a window of its own (WebView2 on Windows; on Linux WebKitGTK, or a Chromium-based browser's app window with NVIDIA graphics or without WebKitGTK; the default browser as a last resort). To connect AniList, open Services, choose Connect on AniList and approve: nothing else to set up. The first sync is always a preview that changes nothing until you apply it.

    To play episodes in Kioku's own player, install mpv; or keep the player you have and let Kioku follow it. Everything else Kioku needs comes with it or installs itself.
