MangaDex API

healthy 4,151 Subscribers

MangaDex as an API — the largest community manga library, returned as clean JSON, no key. Search manga by title; open a manga for its full detail (titles and alternates, description, status, year, demographic, content rating, genre and theme tags, authors, artists and cover art); pull a manga's chapter feed in any translated language; get a chapter's detail; and fetch the ready-to-render page-image URLs for a chapter — the reader endpoint, in full and data-saver quality. Look up an author and list every genre and theme tag. Live data straight from MangaDex. Distinct from anime/manga metadata APIs: this is the actual reading platform — real chapters and page images across thousands of scanlations — ideal for manga readers, trackers, discovery and library apps. 7 data endpoints. Authenticated with an x-oanor-key; fair-use rate limits per plan.

Bangumi Media Database API — oanor API marketplace

Bangumi Media Database API

Subject ratings, rankings and collection stats from Bangumi (bgm.tv, "番组计划"), the Chinese cross-media community database for anime, books/manga, music, games and live-action drama, read keyless from its public v0 API. Bangumi is China's "Douban for ACG": a two-decade catalogue where users rate and collect titles across every medium and the community score and rank are what fans trust. Unlike the anime-first databases (MyAnimeList, AniList), Bangumi spans games, books, music and TV/film too, and exposes a collection breakdown — how many users wish for, are doing, have completed, put on hold or dropped each title — that is its own distinctive engagement signal. The search endpoint finds subjects by keyword, optionally filtered to one medium and sorted by rank, match or score. The subject endpoint returns one title's full profile by its Bangumi id: its Japanese and Chinese names, medium, date, community score and vote count, overall rank, the full collection breakdown, tags and summary. The calendar endpoint returns the anime airing each day of the week, with their scores. This is the Bangumi cut — a distinct social and reference platform, separate from the anime-first feeds and the other media databases in the catalogue, spanning all media with Chinese community metrics. Scores, ranks and collection counts are the real, live community numbers; rank is null for titles with too few votes to be ranked. Names and summaries are Japanese and Chinese as Bangumi publishes them; an nsfw flag is reported honestly and adult titles are excluded from search. Keyless, a short cache fronts the upstream.

MangaUpdates API — oanor API marketplace

MangaUpdates API

Series data, community ratings and scanlation-release tracking from MangaUpdates (mangaupdates.com), the long-running reference database for manga, manhwa, manhua and light novels, read keyless from its public v1 API. MangaUpdates is the catalogue the manga-reading community has used for two decades to rate series, track which chapters have been scanlated by which groups, and rank what is popular — distinct from a reader/scanlation site (MangaDex) and from the anime-first databases (MyAnimeList, AniList). The search endpoint finds series by title. The series endpoint returns one series' full profile by its MangaUpdates id: its type (manga/manhwa/manhua/novel), year, completion status, its community Bayesian rating and vote count, its popularity rank over the last week, month, quarter, half-year and year, latest chapter, genres, categories, authors, publishers and description. The releases endpoint returns the most recent scanlation releases matching a title — the volume, chapter, scanlation group and date — newest first, the feature MangaUpdates is known for. This is the MangaUpdates cut — a distinct social and reference platform for comics, separate from MangaDex and the anime feeds in the catalogue. Ratings and ranks are MangaUpdates' own community metrics; a short cache fronts the upstream. Keyless.

Naver Webtoon API — oanor API marketplace

Naver Webtoon API

Live data from Naver Webtoon (comic.naver.com), the world's largest webtoon platform, read keyless from Naver's public webtoon API. Naver Webtoon is where the modern vertical-scroll webtoon was born and where Korea's biggest series — Tower of God, Solo Leveling, Lookism and thousands more — are serialised; it is the centre of a global comics phenomenon. The weekday endpoint returns the webtoons that update on a given day (Monday to Sunday), ranked by readership, each with its title, author, reader star-rating and status flags (new, updated today, completed, on hiatus, 19+). The title endpoint returns one webtoon's full profile by its Naver title id: its synopsis, genre tags, age rating, the days it publishes, its subscriber (favourite) count and whether it has finished. This is the Naver Webtoon platform cut — a distinct social and creative platform, separate from the manga feeds (MangaDex) and the other comics and social feeds in the catalogue; webtoons are a distinct vertical-scroll format. Star ratings and subscriber counts are the real, live numbers Naver shows; titles, authors, genres and synopses are in Korean as Naver publishes them. Note: Naver does not expose raw view counts through this API, so none are reported — the subscriber count is the platform's popularity metric. A short cache fronts the upstream. Keyless.

pixiv Rankings & Artwork API — oanor API marketplace

pixiv Rankings & Artwork API

Live rankings and artwork engagement from pixiv (pixiv.net), Japan's dominant art-and-illustration social network, read keyless from pixiv's public ranking and artwork endpoints. pixiv is where millions of illustrators, manga artists and animators post their work and where fans drive it up the daily, weekly and monthly rankings with views and bookmarks — the platform at the centre of anime and illustration fan culture, far bigger in that world than DeviantArt or ArtStation. The ranking endpoint returns the official pixiv ranking for a mode (daily, weekly, monthly, rookie, original, and the male/female popularity cuts) — the top works ranked, each with its rank (and previous-day rank), title, artist, view count, ranking points (bookmark-weighted), work type and tags; pass a content filter (illust, manga, ugoira), a page (1-10, 50 per page) or a past date. The illust endpoint returns one artwork in full by its pixiv id: its view, bookmark, like and comment counts, tags, dimensions, page count, upload date and age-restriction flag. This is the pixiv platform cut — a distinct social and creative platform, separate from danbooru (an imageboard aggregator) and from the other social and art feeds in the catalogue. Only safe-for-work ranking modes are exposed; individual artworks carry an x_restrict flag so age-restricted works are clearly labelled, not hidden. Counts are the real, live numbers pixiv shows; a short cache fronts the upstream. Keyless.
