Still use kitsu.io. However, my kitsu is still kinda out of date. Main reason is due to lack of being able to remember Japanese (written in roman letting) naming of shows (having known the roman written version of Japanese - not English- titles - so now some show names are lost on my records until I run into them again)
By roman numeral do you mean kanji?
Roman lettering aka romanji aka the English alphabet.
That's indeed right. I would call it the English alphabet, but English aren't the only people using it

I'm exactly the same. I probably would have kept up with it if I'd started using it when I started watching anime. Not sure if either were around or not back then xD
Edit: Some trivia for you, MAL came out in 2004.

I've used MAL for years now, way before Kitsu was probably even conceptualized as an idea - I tried Kitsu out, but I used it when it was still relatively new, and I just couldn't get used to it, so I ended up just going back to MAL. Funny thing, the same exact thing happened with hummingbird...
Nowadays, I can't even be bothered to even update my MAL, considering I can count on one hand the number of shows I've watched this year.

I use Kitsu because it looks better
Like seriously I don't have any other reasons for using it instead of MAL
RE: MAL vs Kitsu vs whatever else you use - Oni - 06-06-2018
Curious what people are using now. At this point, I only use Kitsu.

Got locked out of my MAL, so I recently switched to https://anilist.co/
List still isn't finished yet, since I need to either import (somehow my MAL became private so no), or remake it manually (bleh).

I use MAL and dont have any issues with it, aside from the troll reviews , which are to be expected anywhere you go.
RE: MAL vs Kitsu vs whatever else you use - Hoshs - 08-05-2018
To be honest I've only used MAL, I haven't really looked into any other websites.

I prefer MAL, because as you already said, the database is definitely more fuller of reviews and oldies. Kitsu is good for new anime watchers I suppose, but if you're looking to elongate your anime watching experience(for years) I'd suggest MAL
