Suggestion: isDub Boolean when fetching Episodes List #48

Hi, first a would like to say that this API is amazing!

Now, the suggestion is that, it would be good to have the information of which of the episodes on the episodes list fetched is dubbed.

Like, in the fetch episodes route: /anime/episodes/konosuba-gods-blessing-on-this-wonderful-world-342

It returns only episodeId, isFiller, number, title. A isDub with true || false would be good i guess.

It is impossible to check each episode if it is a dubbed episode. That's why you can use /anime/servers?episodeId=konosuba-gods-blessing-on-this-wonderful-world-342?ep=7736. The response will give you three arrays: sub, dub and raw. You will know if the episode has dubbed version if the dub array has at least one item in it.

You can get the dubbed source from /anime/episode-srcs?id=konosuba-gods-blessing-on-this-wonderful-world-342?ep=7736&category=dub. Make sure you specify category=dub in the url search params. Thats how the api knows you want the dubbed version of the episode.

Yeah, i knew this endpoint already. But i got a workaround already, where i just fetch the episodes list which, besides the episodes, returns the amount of dubbed episodes, then i just slice them according to this number to get only the Dubbed ones.

So thats it, thanks for the reply
