Blitz for two or more: the same questions, a shared start — whoever scores more in the time wins.
Sign in to play duels — with friends or a random opponent.
Sign inThe anime duel is a speed anime quiz against other players. Everyone in the room gets the same questions and starts at the same moment: guess the anime from a screenshot, pixel poster, emoji or character, and decide which anime aired earlier, is rated higher or is more popular. Whoever scores more in the time wins. Play with friends in your own room or find a random opponent.

Sign in to ShikiMatch, open Duel and create a room. Send your friend the link or the six-character code — or invite them right from the room if you are mutual friends: the invitation pops up for them on any page of the site. Once everyone is ready, the room creator starts the match.
It's a blitz for several players: everyone gets the same questions and a shared start after a countdown, then each answers at their own pace. A right answer scores points, a streak multiplies them up to ×2, a mistake costs 5 seconds and a skip 2. You see your opponents' scores live, and after the match there are results, a breakdown of your run and a rematch.
Any combination: anime screenshots, pixel posters, emoji, characters and three kinds of Higher or Lower — by release date, by score and by popularity. Keep only emoji and screenshots, for example, or play nothing but “which aired first”. Difficulty (rising or fixed), match length — 30, 60 or 90 seconds — and 2 to 6 players are configurable too.
Yes. A room offers two answer modes: pick one of four options, or type the title with suggestions for a real test of knowledge. Typed answers accept any entry of the franchise, and on character questions you can also type the name for +50% points. Higher or Lower questions are always a pick between two sides.
Yes: press “Find an opponent” and you'll be matched with another player who is looking for a game. It's a 1v1 with standard rules: all modes, 60 seconds, rising difficulty. You can choose multiple choice or typed answers.
Completely. You only need to sign in with Shikimori, MyAnimeList, AniList or a ShikiMatch account so opponents see your nickname and your matches and wins are saved.
