I don't get it. You can search MyAnimeList using either name most of the time.
That's true, but it only shows results in Japanese. If I'm looking for A Place Further Than The Universe, it's probably the top result, but Sora yori mo Tooi Basho could be anything to these ignorant American eyes
Why not use anidb where you can configure titles to your preference?
True. It would be nice if they had both names. Usually I know what the thumbnail is supposed to look like so I match it up that way. And for those that I don't, knowing how the search works means I just pick the one at the top first.
Hard for me to imagine a first time user of the site and anime since I've been using it for so long now.
