Zangetsu is a modern, open-source app for keeping anime, movies, series, manga and light novels in one place.
It has three modes — Streaming, Manga and Novel — each with its own sources and its own reader or player, plus a full Android TV interface built for a remote rather than a touchscreen.
It focuses on discovery, tracking, syncing, and personal library management — wrapped in a clean interface and a smooth user experience.
Note
Keep your lists, progress, and history in sync wherever you go.
