What is it?

Tonkatsu Box is a free, open-source collection manager for games, movies, TV shows, anime, visual novels, manga, books, music and podcasts. It searches across fifteen catalogs such as IGDB, TMDB, TVmaze, AniList and MusicBrainz, so you can add titles from one search field and organize them into collections.

The app tracks status, ratings, dates and progress, including episode-by-episode tracking for shows and page or chapter progress for books and manga. It also offers statistics about your library, visual boards, tier lists and mood grids that can be exported as PNG, and a wishlist for what you plan to consume next.

You can import existing data from services such as Steam, Trakt.tv, Simkl, MyAnimeList, AniList and Hardcover, or from JSON and CSV files. Data stays on your device, with backups, device-to-device sync over a home network and a custom storage folder. The project is built with Flutter and runs on Windows, Linux, macOS and Android, and a Docker-based web self-hosted mode is also described.
