Wicked | Archivio Anime Catalog

Everyone loves anime, but hunting for one episode across dozens of channels and pinned posts wears you out. Wicked | Archivio Anime gathers a catalog in one mini app inside Telegram: open it, find a title, watch. More than 423 thousand people use it, and around 55 thousand come in every month. 🎌

The project is Italian, and that shapes a lot: from the interface language to dubs and subtitles.

Where this archive comes from

Behind the app stands the Italian Wicked Anime project, which has run a channel about Italian dubs and subtitles since 2020. The bot greets you and points to a web app with the catalog, where the titles are collected.

The bot has one command, /start, which launches it. After that everything happens in the mini app, not in the chat.

What you need to open it

• A fresh Telegram. The mini app asks for the latest official version of the program. Older builds may fail to load it.
• Some Italian. "Archivio" is Italian for archive, and the main dubs and subtitles are Italian as well.
• The button in the bot. After /start, a button leads to the web app.

If you do not read Italian, searching by title still works. Series names in the catalog are usually familiar, and the layout is simple. 🔎

Hunting for a specific title

Three habits help in catalogs like this. Search by the original title instead of a translated one. Try the English spelling when the Japanese one fails. And check the release year, since remakes often share a name.

If the title you want is missing, the project accepts requests through a separate request channel. You can find its link in the project's description on Telegram.

A word on copyright

Many anime archives on Telegram host material without permission from the rights holders. Laws differ from country to country, and in some places the viewer can carry the responsibility.

If you want to watch with a clear conscience, check the rules where you live. New releases often have official paid services that pay the creators. A licensed subscription supports the studios that make the shows you like. 🎬

Staying safe

1. Open only the bot whose exact name is listed in the project's official channel. Look-alikes are common.
2. Do not enter passwords or card details into windows that look like an "age check" or "account confirmation".
3. Do not download exe or apk files from a chat. Video never needs an installer.
4. Close pop-up ads if any appear.

Some material in the project's wider ecosystem is meant for adults. If you are underage, stay away from those sections.

Who it suits

It is handy for anyone who watches anime in Italian and likes everything in one catalog. If you need other subtitle languages or official releases, look somewhere else.

Open it from a phone or a computer, and the mini app appears in a Telegram window. It saves storage, since there is nothing to install. 📱
