I tried using 'WAIT' which can search the title of the work and the number of episodes from the image of one scene of the animation

When the number of animations broadcast and distributed in one cool is

close to 60, it comes out that even if you look at only one scene, you can not tell which one it is, 'There was a scene that seemed to be insanely interesting in the MAD movie , In some cases, I don't know what the work is. ' With a web service called 'WAIT', you can search for what kind of work it is and what number of episodes the scene is based on one image, so I actually tried using it.

The top page of WAIT looks like this. If the image you want to check is on your PC, drag and drop it into the blank area at the top, or specify the file with 'Browse a file' at the bottom. If it is an image on the net, you can search for the title and number of stories of the corresponding animation by entering the URL of the image in the text box labeled 'Image URL'.

As a test, let's load the image by dragging and dropping.

After loading the image, click 'Search' at the bottom right.

The search result screen looks like this. The titles and number of stories of the anime are listed on the left side in descending order of matching rate. In addition, detailed information on the anime with the highest matching rate is displayed in the center. This time, I used one scene included in the

teaser PV of ' Is the Order a Rabbit? BLOOM ', but the corresponding scene is one scene of the second episode of 'Is the Order a Rabbit? BLOOM'. It turned out to be.

In WAIT, you can search the detailed information of the corresponding animation from one captured image, so it seems to be useful when searching for the original material of the following MAD movie.

WAIT has add-ons for Google Chrome, Firefox, and Opera to make it easier to search, so let's try it out. This time, click 'Firefox' to try using the add-on for Firefox.

When you are on the add-on

distribution page , click Add to Firefox.

Click 'Add' in the pop-up that appears in the upper right corner of the window to complete the installation.

Using the add-on is simple. Right-click the

image for which you want to know more information, and click 'Search on trace.moe' from the displayed menu ...

The WAIT search result page is displayed like this. It turned out that the image searched this time is one scene of the second episode of '

Baki Otsudaisai Hen '.

If you search for a

scene photo of 'Ponyo on the Cliff by the Sea' ...

Although 'Ponyo on the cliff' is displayed as a candidate on the left side, it is judged that one scene of '

Initial D ' has a higher matching rate, and 'Initial D' is displayed as a search result. I did. Please note that the WAIT search is not perfect and different animations may be displayed in the search results.

In addition, only the image of one scene of the animation can be searched by WAIT. It is said that it does not support searches based on images that have been trimmed or inverted, or searches using key visuals that do not appear in the work.
