    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 2.41.0

    Kioku's own database carries the title pages, and the server gets the tools to run it.

    • With a Kioku account, title pages take from Kioku's database what they took from AniList: where to watch (with links members add for their country), recommendations, characters, staff and studios with their details, episode titles, air days and lengths, exact episode lengths measured from the files members play, and how often a manga gets new chapters. Discover filters by origin, country, counts, length, score and popularity. AniList stays a choice under Settings, General.
    • The database is fixed together: report a wrong cover, title or count from a title's page; reviewers see titles that lack something, titles that look the same to merge, a title's history with undo, one change to many titles, and where each record comes from. Content notes say what a title shows, such as violence or flashing lights.
    • Accounts: sign in with a passkey or by scanning a code with your phone, hear of sign-ins from new devices, take back a deleted account within 14 days, change your name with old links still working, share one account as a household with profiles, and move an account to another server. Pause sharing for a while, hide when you were last active, keep your profile out of search engines, see who sees what on one page, and let messages delete themselves.
    • Your data: the library as Markdown notes, your year in review as a PDF, a log of every change sync made, an address any player can report plays to, favourites kept in step with AniList, and Simkl and Kitsu synced by the server.
    • Running a server: announcements, new members who wait for an admin, room for each member's pictures, an admin log, a read-only mode, the server's own name and logo, the wording of its emails, weekly database upkeep, pictures in S3, a Helm chart, a Grafana dashboard, and a public directory of servers that take new members.

    Download and first start

    System File First start
    Windows 10 and 11 Kioku-2.41.0-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-2.41.0-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-2.41.0-linux-x64.tar.gz, Kioku-2.41.0-linux-arm64.tar.gz Extract and run ./kioku. Kioku adds itself to the application menu.
    Browser extension Kioku-2.41.0-extension-chromium.zip, Kioku-2.41.0-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-2.41.0-linux-x64.tar.gz, Kioku-server-2.41.0-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.

    Everything Kioku does and good to know: the full notes. Earlier releases: all notes.
