Picdex carries three title dictionaries: anime, light novels, and films and series. Here you can download exactly the files each version of Picdex ships, byte for byte — free, with no account and no other terms.
These three files are the ones inside Picdex 0.1.0. In the folder Steam
installed Picdex to, they are under
resources\core\_internal\picdex\assets\, one subfolder
each.
anime-offline-database, by the manami project: release 2026-27 (its data last updated on 2026-07-04), unmodified.
5672cef0fd729a7f7810fc9cf7d54007612aee83fbcf44dd370359c82db6373aRanobeDB database dump, downloaded on 2026-09-24, as Picdex ships it.
378e7770407e22c69c12cd6431c240b66e3cb89f55f0d1972148fb2f94b9be33This is a derived database. Picdex set
these columns to NULL in every row: description and
description_ja of public.book, and
description of public.release,
public.publisher, public.staff,
public.series and public.tag. Everything else is
as RanobeDB published it. This derived database is made available under
the ODbL 1.0 as well.
Wikidata extract: Picdex's extract of film and series titles from Wikidata.
5b1bf0d4644d9a37645fc8c694fa6000173e97802f196dc68997329f85ece8a2Each version's files are listed here, under the first version that shipped them.
A SHA-256 is a fingerprint of a file: if a single byte differs, so does the SHA-256. To check a file in Windows, open Command Prompt and run:
certutil -hashfile <file> SHA256
with the file's path in place of <file>, for example
certutil -hashfile "%USERPROFILE%\Downloads\wikidata-films.jsonl.bz2" SHA256.
The long line of letters and digits it prints must match the SHA-256 above,
character for character.
The same command on the copy in the folder Steam installed Picdex to gives the same result: the download and the file in your installation are the same bytes.

Picdex ships no data from MangaUpdates. Picdex's extended search, off by default, fetches it only on request: once you turn it on (Turn on extended search, in the Network card on the Admin screen), pressing Fill in from MangaUpdates on the page of a manga, manhwa or manhua fills in that one title's missing details from MangaUpdates.
