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
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
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
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.

MyAnimeList Community Stats API
Live anime community stats from MyAnimeList, the world's largest anime and manga community, via the public Jikan feed — no key, nothing stored. The MAL community view: a title's MAL score, member counts, ranking and the full engagement breakdown of how the community is watching it, distinct from the other anime platforms in the catalogue — MyAnimeList has its own score, its own millions-strong community and its own rankings. The anime endpoint returns a title snapshot: the MAL score, how many users scored it, its rank and popularity rank, total members, favourites, airing status, episode count and year. The stats endpoint returns the community engagement breakdown — how many users are watching, completed, on-hold, dropped or plan-to-watch — plus the full 1–10 score distribution with vote counts and percentages, and computed completion and drop rates. The top endpoint returns the top-ranked anime, by score or filtered by airing, upcoming, popularity or favourites. The season endpoint returns the anime airing this season ranked by member count. Build anime trackers, recommendation widgets, seasonal-airing dashboards and community-sentiment tools on top of real MyAnimeList data. Look up a title by its MAL id (try id=52991, Frieren).

One Piece API
The world of One Piece as an API — the characters, pirate crews and Devil Fruits of Eiichiro Oda's saga. Look up a character by id or name (e.g. Monkey D. Luffy → 3,000,000,000 berry bounty, captain of the Straw Hat Pirates, user of the Hito Hito no Mi, Model: Nika), browse the pirate crews with their total bounty, member count and Yonko status, and search the Devil Fruits by name for their type (Paramecia, Zoan, Logia) and powers.
