What I Built
Quote Finder is a lightning-fast, searchable archive of powerful quotes from anime, TV shows, games, and films. It helps fans rediscover iconic lines, explore character insights, and surface forgotten gems through a sleek UI powered by Algolia.
This project is a deeply personal one for me. I grew up immersed in anime — not just as entertainment, but as a wellspring of emotional depth, moral nuance, and philosophical reflection. From One Piece’s freedom, to Evangelion’s existential dread, anime taught me more about life than most textbooks ever could. Quote Finder is my tribute to that universe.

How I Used Algolia MCP Server
1. Search Setup
- Configured a dedicated Algolia index with fine-tuned searchable attributes like quote, character, and anime.
- Integrated Algolia InstantSearch.js to handle real-time filtering and searching.
- Custom-built a quote dataset from a mix of anime and fictional media.
- AI-tagged each quote with:
- sentiment_score (1–10)
- sentiment_label (positive/neutral/negative)
- tags (e.g. “truth”, “grief”, “purpose”)
- emotion (e.g. “inspiring”, “tragic”)
- Faceted filtering by character & anime
- Searchable fields: quote, anime, character, emotion, and tags
- Highlighted keywords in results
- LocalStorage-powered favorites

Challenge: How to assign emotion categories like “tragic” or “uplifting” without relying on external labels?
Solution: Combined sentiment score + thematic tags to derive high-level emotions algorithmically.

Challenge: Quotes ranged from poetic to deeply philosophical. Tags needed to be accurate and meaningful.
Solution: Used GPT-4 to suggest tags based on meaning, not just keywords.

Technical HighlightsChallenge: Simple UI that honors the tone of the content.
Solution: Minimalist card layout, soft gradients, and readable typography using Tailwind.
- Real-time search with InstantSearch.js
- Clean filter-based UI using Radix UI + Tailwind
- AI-derived metadata for nuanced discovery
- Fast, SEO-friendly static site via Next.js
- Highly scalable Algolia index structure
