[QUOTE="saitoh183, post: 1069906, member: 113049"] Something that has always been missing form every HTPC is proper Anime support. XBMC has Anidb Mod scraper (which is what i was using), Plex has HAMA addon, Mediabrowser3 has Anime plugin and MP1 has MyAnime + JMM server. None of theses solutions are elegant and each require changing how you arrange your anime content in your folders depending on the solution you choose. Yes we all know that TVDB can handle anime like tv shows but the reality is that Anime doesnt come in the same format that standard tvshows come in when you get them from release groups. They dont have Seasons like western shows (yes we put seasons but originally they dont have them). Its not for nothing Anidb exists and Anime release groups tie there release to the Anidb API. It would be great if MP2 could natively support Anime the right way without having to rely on plugins. Using Anidb and other Anime sources to scrape Anime in conjuction with TVDB/Fanart.tv for Fanart (Anidb fails in that department). JMM server used with MyAnime could be a source to help bring this into MP2 as well as all the other mods i mentioned above. Mp2 could be the first Media center solution to get Anime right. All my anime is in this format: Series_name\Series_name - Abs_Eps_num - Eps_title.ext For series that have sequels (ie Fate stay night) i have them in there own folder as there sequel names (ie Fate Zero and Fate Zero 2012) instead of season folders inside Fate Stay night. This is because of the way the Anidb API works and applications that use it, will move/rename your files that way. You could give people the choice of which way they want there anime to be managed, either via the TVDB or Anidb so that way they can choose the best way that fits there library. Also if Anime where to make it into MP2, there would need to be a separation from TV shows. None of the solutions above can do that currently (except for XBMC via playlist) and this is something often many user will complaint about because Anime needs its own section. I really hope to see this make it into MP2 Thanks :) [/QUOTE]
