Actors are a software tools running on the Apify platform, for all kinds of web data extraction and automation use cases. In Batch mode, an Actor accepts a well-defined JSON input, performs an action which can take anything from a few seconds to a few hours, and optionally produces a well-defined JSON output, datasets with results, or files in key-value store. In Standby mode, an Actor provides a web server which can be used as a website, API, or an MCP server. Actors are written with capital "A". ## How to integrate an Actor? If asked about integration, you help developers integrate Actors into their projects. You adapt to their stack and deliver integrations that are safe, well-documented, and production-ready. The best way to integrate Actors is as follows. In JavaScript/TypeScript projects, use official [JavaScript/TypeScript client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js.md): ```bash npm install apify-client ``` In Python projects, use official [Python client library](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python.md): ```bash pip install apify-client ``` In shell scripts, use [Apify CLI](https://docs.apify.com/cli/docs.md): ````bash # MacOS / Linux curl -fsSL https://apify.com/install-cli.sh | bash # Windows irm https://apify.com/install-cli.ps1 | iex ```bash In AI frameworks, you might use the [Apify MCP server](https://docs.apify.com/platform/integrations/mcp.md). If your project is in a different language, use the [REST API](https://docs.apify.com/api/v2.md). For usage examples, see the [API](#api) section below. For more details, see Apify documentation as [Markdown index](https://docs.apify.com/llms.txt) and [Markdown full-text](https://docs.apify.com/llms-full.txt). # README ![ParseForge Banner](https://github.com/ParseForge/apify-assets/blob/ad35ccc13ddd068b9d6cba33f323962e39aed5b2/banner.jpg?raw=true) ## ๐ŸŽต AnimeThemes Anime Songs Scraper > ๐Ÿš€ **Export anime opening and ending themes in one run.** Pull OPs and EDs from AnimeThemes.moe with song titles, artists, and direct audio and video links. > ๐Ÿ•’ **Last updated:** 2026-06-08 ยท **๐Ÿ“Š 15 fields** per record ยท one record per theme ยท OP and ED coverage Turn the AnimeThemes.moe catalog into clean, structured records you can drop into a music database, a playlist builder, or an anime companion app. Search by anime name, or browse a whole season and year, and get one row per theme with the anime cover, the song title, the performing artists, and links to the actual audio and video files. Coverage is the public AnimeThemes.moe library: opening and ending themes for thousands of anime across decades of seasons, each theme carrying its type (OP or ED), its slug (OP1, ED2, and so on), the song, the artists who performed it, and the hosted media for that theme. | ๐ŸŽฏ Target Audience | ๐Ÿ’ก Primary Use Cases | |---|---| | Anime music fans and collectors | Build a personal library of OP and ED songs | | Playlist and app builders | Seed a database with themes, artists, and media links | | Discord and Telegram bot developers | Answer "what is the opening of X" queries | | Researchers and data analysts | Study anime music trends across seasons and years | ### ๐Ÿ“‹ What the AnimeThemes Anime Songs Scraper does This Actor calls the public AnimeThemes.moe API and returns one clean record per theme: - **Anime context** โ€” name, slug, season, year, and media format. - **Theme details** โ€” type (OP or ED), slug like OP1 or ED2, and sequence number. - **Song details** โ€” song title and the list of performing artists. - **Media** โ€” direct video link, audio link, and the video resolution. You can search by anime name, or filter by season and year, and you control how many records come back. Every record leads with the anime cover image and carries a `scrapedAt` timestamp. ### ๐ŸŽฌ Full Demo (_๐Ÿšง Coming soon_) ### โš™๏ธ Input | Field | Type | Description | |---|---|---| | `search` | string | Anime name to search for, for example `Naruto`.

Put a name in the `search` field and the Actor returns matching anime and their themes. **Can I browse a whole season?** Yes. Set `season` and `year` and leave `search` empty to pull every matching anime. **What is one record?** One theme. Each opening and each ending of an anime is its own record, so an anime with three OPs and two EDs yields five records. **Why is the artists array sometimes empty?** Some songs on AnimeThemes have no credited artist. The Actor returns an empty array rather than inventing data. **Do I get the actual audio and video?** You get direct links to the hosted media files for each theme, both an audio link and a video link. **What does the theme slug mean?** It identifies the theme within the anime, for example OP1 for the first opening or ED2 for the second ending. **How fresh is the data?** Each run pulls live from AnimeThemes, so it reflects the catalog at run time. **Can I schedule this?** Yes. Use Apify Schedules to snapshot a season or a search on any cadence. ### ๐Ÿ”Œ Integrate with any app Results are available through the Apify API, so you can pull them into any app, database, or workflow you already run. ### ๐Ÿ”— Recommended Actors - [Brawlify Brawl Stars Database Scraper](https://apify.com/parseforge) - [Have I Been Pwned Breaches Catalog Scraper](https://apify.com/parseforge) - More reference and media data Actors in the [ParseForge collection](https://apify.com/parseforge) > ๐Ÿ’ก **Pro Tip:** browse the complete [ParseForge collection](https://apify.com/parseforge). **๐Ÿ†˜ Need Help?** [Open our contact form](https://tally.so/r/BzdKgA) > **โš ๏ธ Disclaimer:** independent tool, not affiliated with AnimeThemes.moe.
