Provide Anime Recommendation #28

If users have finished watching all of the anime within their watchlist, they could receive a recommendation of what to watch next.

This is a great idea.

What type of recommendation are we talking? It sounds like we would need to create an algorithm to determine what recommended should be... or do we want the first iteration of this to be simple and just simply pluck something random from the library? should we create a function that allows people to choose the type of recommendations they want?

Here's some initial options off the top of my head:

  1. Recommend anime based on genre tags? We would store tags on the anime itself for the system to reference. All anime in the system that have the same genre tags could be recommended, and perhaps more shows that have the same genre tags get ranked higher?

  2. Recommend anime based on user's previously watched list? The system would compile a recommendation based on a few factors.

  3. Would we allow users to "rate" the anime they watch to improve their recommendations ranking?

There are many other options but wanted to jot these down while thinking about it
