Get anime details
get_animeRetrieve complete information for a specific anime using its MyAnimeList ID, covering synopsis, rating, genres, studios, streaming options, external links, alternate titles, and related entries.
Instructions
Get full details for one anime by mal_id: synopsis, score, genres, studios, streaming links, external links (official site, social media), alternate title synonyms, and related entries. moreinfo is a free-text field MAL editors sometimes add (e.g. suggested viewing order for a franchise) — usually absent. Only carries the single main trailer URL — use get_anime_videos for every promo/episode-preview/music video. Obtain the mal_id from search_anime first. sfw/sfw_strict don't affect this anime itself (its id was requested explicitly) — they filter NSFW entries out of its relations list. If Tenrai is unavailable and MAL_CLIENT_ID is set, transparently retries via the official API, which omits producers/licensors/streaming/opening_themes/ending_themes/trailer/favorites/moreinfo/explicit_genres/external (no equivalent fields there) and ignores sfw/sfw_strict entirely.
Input Schema
| Name | Required | Description | Default |
|---|---|---|---|
| id | Yes | MyAnimeList numeric ID. | |
| sfw | No | If true, exclude adult/explicit-rated entries (R+ Mild Nudity and up). Defaults to false (no filtering). Note: this alone still allows mainstream, safely-rated shows tagged with the Ecchi genre (fanservice) through — use `sfw_strict` to also exclude those. | |
| sfw_strict | No | If true, exclude adult/explicit-rated entries AND anything tagged with the Ecchi genre, even otherwise-mainstream/safely-rated shows. Stricter than `sfw` alone. Defaults to false. |
