About
Anime Ratings contains a collection of anime listings from MyAnimeList (MAL), featuring titles, rankings, ratings, and popularity scores. It also includes related genres, episode counts, episode lengths, and release seasons. This data is suitable for tasks involving data cleaning due to the presence of null values for certain attributes, such as genre and release season. The dataset brings together details for over 20,000 anime entries, providing a useful resource for analysis.
