The Anime API is a collection of wrappers for different types of free anime-related APIs. Join our Discord server.
There are several reasons why would you prefer using anime-api:
- Intuitive: anime-api is designed to be intuitive. Supports autocompletion everywhere.
- Complete: Every actively supported API has no feature left apart.
- Simple: Get all the anime information you want with a single line of code.
- Legal: I shouldn't need to say this, but all the APIs are legal. (no free streaming services/others)
- Actively supported: Get new releases (with new API wrappers) every now and then.
Using Poetry:
poetry add anime-api
Using pip:
pip install anime-api
