Current response example looks like this:

Some preg_match issues and completion of stuff it's missing out

Parse data from pages like these: https://myanimelist.net/anime/1/Cowboy_Bebop/moreinfo

This parses after the anime() or manga() method and fetches from sub pages such as

https://myanimelist.net/anime/1/Cowboy_Bebop/video
https://myanimelist.net/anime/1/Cowboy_Bebop/episode
https://myanimelist.net/anime/1/Cowboy_Bebop/reviews
https://myanimelist.net/anime/1/Cowboy_Bebop/userrecs
and so on.

Each pages are individual, so they require more work and bandwidth.

Possible code use is

\MAL\GET->anime($id)->video()->episode()->reviews()

The data keeps getting accumulated in the returning array.

Low priority since it requires a lot of work. So I'll do it in the end.

Ran a GET for almost 500,000 chracters and it got stuck somewhere in the middle (logs didn't work as expected). Keeping an eye out.

I'm getting 500 on any and all gets to the API, it seems to be down atm?

This acts as a wrapper for the official authentication stuff in https://myanimelist.net/modules.php?go=api

Low Priority - Possibly to be done after scrapping work is done.

The official MAL search API is lacking in terms of pages. You can get the results from the first page but you've no idea what's on the rest of the pages.

Thus, this method will allow you to get results from any page of query. Will also include the amount of pages available.

Possible usage:

$results = \MAL\GET->search("string", 2 /page/{, type; anime, manga})

Probably due to cache or monitor classes.

In my parser I map json keys to Java variables, example:

@SerializedName("ranked") public int ranked;

To parse the JSON, I use GSON, so my code looks like this

Anime anime = gson.fromJson("here comes the json provided by Jikan");

(to call the ranked variable, I use anime.ranked, Parsing and mapping to a Java object happens only in one line of code)

My problem is that Sequel on Jikan can either return a double List/Array, if the Anime has more than 1 sequel - or single Array when the Anime only has 1 sequel

To completely mitigate this issue (for me), making it always return a double array fixes it

Example current JSON:

    "Sequel": [
      "Clannad: After Story<\/a>",
      "\/anime\/4181\/Clannad__After_Story"
    ]

Example new situation

    "Sequel": [
     [
      "Clannad: After Story<\/a>",
      "\/anime\/4181\/Clannad__After_Story"
     ] // add other sequels here, comma separated
    ]

I was wondering if this is possible for Jikan, if not I'll just keep the 'Related Anime' off my app

Oh and to clarify, only return a list if there is an related Anime found of course.

PS: I am looking for solutions on my end, so if I manage to find it, I'll just close the issue

Anime has everything fine, but manga seems to be missing these three specifically.

title-romanji and title-japanese switched, as reported.

Anime uses genres, so I thought it would be nicer to have it uniform and name it genres in Manga as well. (already made my code fail once haha)

Noticed that there arent images on them. (except for specific characters in a Person or for anime in Characters)
Could you parse that?

Can't pinpoint what's wrong with the ReGex. Will have to find proper regex for this or use a roundabout method...

Returning a non-200 status code allows me to deliver feedback to the user that makes more sense. Right now I need to look in the message to figure out what is wrong.

I completely understand why it returns 200... but I'd rather prefer the status in the HTTP Status code.

Currently, it returns an empty array with a 200 status for non-existent users.

As with Character, parse the actual (English) name of the person.

I'm collecting info from your API, the first round many animes give me error 500 or others, second run it works fine.

So if it crawl by request, maybe you need put this info on the README (any way, I think right now you have 13000+ animes thanks too all my request [sorry for the "little attack" I don't want parse again all mal, just to get the info anime and crawl data etc...])

PD: Also some request return false as response, what it means?
