Hi all,

Here's a summary of all of the anime and manga tags added since the last announcement. Beverage tags, animal transformation, rakugo, and more.

Beverage tags are limited to manga at the moment, so if you only see a manga link, please do suggest additions to anime at this link, and we'll add the anime option for the tag.

As a reminder, you can post suggestions for new tags, as well as anime/manga that are missing specific tags, in the tag section of the forum. Help out by posting missing ones in the above section! And remember that you can check out recently added tags anytime by using the "date added" sort on the tags page.

Thanks for the new tag updates. If you don't mind my critique, the last sentence that I quoted above had me scratching my head a little, especially the part about "natural lycanthropes". It doesn't really fit in with the rest of the paragraph. Something along the lines of "Werewolves are a common example of animal transformations" or just "Werewolves are a common example" might be better. As always, it's your call whether you ultimately want to change it or not. Thank you for your consideration.
 
It'd be cool if trigger tags were their own section, like you could filter out triggers much easier than scrolling through tags to make exceptions while browsing? But it's still nice to have the tags at all. Thanks much!

It's a good idea for us to keep in mind as we work through the redesign efforts. I can say that in the new anime/manga info pages, the trigger tags are physically separated so they are easier to see, but we haven't started planning the filter pages/options yet. Will keep this in mind.
 
Eh, I have an tag idea.
I've seen a couple anime where one of the main characters needs to save another one constantly. Like a Damsel in Distress, or DID.

Idk, it isn't a great idea, but I wanted to put it here anyway.
