zakaoai commented 8 months ago

Is there an existing issue for this?

Current Behavior

I want to use season endpoint to retrieve anime by season. The season endpoint return information about number of items in the pagination. the total never match the showing information in MyAnimeList. Sometimes there are more items and sometimes less.

Expected Behavior

I want to have the same information that I can get when I go to season section of myanimelist

Steps To Reproduce

compare : https://api.jikan.moe/v4/seasons/2022/fall (total :280) with : https://myanimelist.net/anime/season/2022/fall (showing : /249)

Environment

Used public API
Os : Win 11
Browser : Firefox 122.0 (64 bits)

Anything else?

No response

It seems like the type "music" is included, but on MAL there is no tab for it. @irfan-dahir Should the type "Music" be included on the seasons endpoint?

On the fall 2023 : https://api.jikan.moe/v4/seasons/2023/fall -> 273 https://myanimelist.net/anime/season/2023/fall -> 280

I have the same issue, and I can provide a specific example:

On Winter 2024: https://myanimelist.net/anime/season/2024/winter

Great Pretender: Razbliuto is listed there as it airs on Feb 23, 2024, yet it's not returned by the Jikan API at https://api.jikan.moe/v4/seasons/2024/winter on any of the 6 pages.

It was working before Jikan 4.2.1, I suspect it's a regression from #482.

@AniLeo That's a bit different issue from this one in the sense that what @zakaoai is describing. What you are referring to is a regression from a recent change, which you have mentioned on discord too. For that we should open a new issue.

Also a note for myself: The added change in #482 doesn't handle cases where an item is a "continuing" one from a previous season, that's why the numbers that @zakaoai mentioned don't match up.

I opened the new bug for the spin-off issue at #513
