Looking for an AniList scraper that does more than search by title? This Actor turns the public AniList catalog into rows for a spreadsheet, a database, a Discord bot or a weekly report. Each row carries titles in four forms, scores, popularity, genres, tags without spoilers, studios, dates, cover art and next-episode timing.

This is an unofficial Actor. It is not affiliated with or endorsed by AniList. Data comes from AniList's public API, needs no account, and stays the property of AniList and its contributors.

🔍 What does this Actor do?

• Seasonal charts. Pick a season and year, or leave them empty for the current season, and sort by trending, popularity, score or favourites.
• Airing schedule. List episodes airing in the coming days (or the days just gone), filtered by genre, format, country or popularity.
• Ranking boards with filters. Trending, most popular, highest rated, newest and more, narrowed by genre, excluded genre, tag, tag strength, format, status, country, release years, score range and popularity range.
• Title search. Up to 10 search terms in one run, with the same filters.
• Specific titles. Paste AniList IDs or links and get exactly those titles back, in the order you gave.
• Public user lists. Read the public anime or manga list of up to 10 users, with status, score, progress and dates. Private lists are skipped with a note.
• Extras on request. Add staff, characters with voice actors in ten languages, related titles, recommendations, watch and info links, rankings and score spread.
• Change tracking. Name a run, schedule it, and each new run reports only what is new or changed.

Adult-marked titles and spoiler tags are off by default.

❓ FAQ

Does it need an AniList account or API key?

No. It reads only public data that anyone can see. It never logs in, and a private user list is skipped.

How do I get this week's airing anime with countdowns?

Choose the airing schedule job, set days ahead to 7 and run. Each row has the episode, the air time in UTC, the hours until it airs and whether it is the final episode. Add a genre or minimum popularity filter to cut the list down.

How does change tracking work?

Give the run a name and schedule it. The first run records a starting point and marks every title as new. Later runs save only titles that are new or changed: score moved by a point or more, a new status, a new episode or chapter, or a clear shift in popularity. Rows show the old and new values.

Why is there a record limit?

AniList asks that its data is not collected in bulk or stored as a backup, so each run is capped at 500 records and the Actor is built for targeted lists, charts and schedules. It spaces its requests to respect AniList's rate limit, so larger runs take a little longer.
