I asked Perplexity to recommend movies and anime based on my favorite games — and it’s way better than expected

I have to hand it to Perplexity: it’s one of the few AI chatbots that consistently gives me clear, specific answers with real sources attached. I prefer that over tools that spit out a confident response, then leave you juggling a pile of links just to figure out what’s actually true.

Earlier this year, I used Perplexity to build a legit reading list when I set a goal to read more books. The recommendations were so solid I decided to give it another curation challenge.
