Its absolutely the second best. I'm amazed how it got so better in such a short time. If you don't want to use MAL, jump here. Unlike a old site like Anime-Planet where you won't find any hentai anime, advertise falsely as watch and read free everything and the active community is most 12 year old girls...this site is pretty user friendly.
