If you did this for all audiovisual content and not just anime I'd be all in.
I'm pretty sure that I/someone could just fork this project once it's done and make a few changes to it to make it a audiovisual content tracker.
I think the biggest challenge will be to standardize the scraping process since databases for audiovisual content are very differently structured. Will probably require database-by-database API access/negotiations so that you know how their databases are structured - completely FOSS audiovisual content databases are rare.
I can see that being a problem.
