An interactive network graph of anime based on MyAnimeList recommendations.
Edge weights are equal to the recommendation counts between series. For anime, at least 3 recommendations must be made between two series for the edge to be registered. For manga, this requirement is lowered to 2.
The force-directed layout and detected communities are generated using NetworkX. Data is retrieved using the Jikan API, and is currently processed in the jupyter notebook - will port it to a python script at some point. The graph visualization is built on sigma.js. Only jQuery is used for the site, so no build is required.
Feature suggestions welcome!
See the MyAnimelist forum topic for more info.
