GoAnime is a simple command-line interface (CLI) built in Go, allowing users to search for anime and either play or download episodes directly in Mpv. It scrapes data from websites to provide a selection of anime and episodes to the user, with a special focus and objective on offering animes that are both subtitled and dubbed in Portuguese.
- Search for anime by name
- Browse episodes
- Skip anime Intro
- Play online with quality selection
- Download single episodes
- Discord RPC about the anime
- Batch download multiple episodes
- Resume playback from where you left off (in builds with SQLite support)
- Track watched episodes (in builds with SQLite support)
Note: GoAnime can be built with or without SQLite support for tracking anime progress.
See the build options documentation for more details.
