Welcome To Anime Characters Database

Development of Anime Characters Database began in April of 2007. We went live in May, 2007 with our first 1,000 characters. Since then, many new features have been added, and the database has continued to expand at a rate near 1,000 characters each month.

Our mandate is to index all animated characters. We have indexed characters from more than one thousand bushojo games (also knows as hentai games), as well as characters from hundreds of anime series. We aim to index just about every character you may find online that leaves you wondering "Who is this characters? Where is he or she from?". By indexing characters by hair color, eye color, age, hair length, ears (cat ears or no cat ears), and gender, we give you a chance to identify characters.

Anime Characters Database aims to be a quickly evolving web application. We're not afraid to change things that arn't working, and add new features that people want. I like to think of ACDB as a dynamic site that you can customize to fit your needs.

Anime Characters Database is gradually evolving into a massive online store. I believe, that allowing people to search products by characters, is a powerful new way to market anime.

Software

Anime Characters Database proudly uses OpenBSD as our server, and development Operating System. Our software is written in a Gentoo Linux environment, using Kate, GNU Bash, GNU Nano, feh, Image Magick, GNOME Terminal, OpenSSH, KSnapshot, Mozilla Firefox, Galeon, and uses an OpenBSD server running Mercurial to manage our source code. Not that it matters, but FluxBox is our prefered GUI.
