I would love to try out this fork for my experiments, but I can't find any documentation for it anywhere, maybe I've found something but it's all in chinese so I've got no idea how to forward. Can I use the same encoding flags I use on regular x265 or is there something more I should be made aware of when I use this fork that might be beneficial for me while encoding japanese animation?

Try --tune lp or --tune vcbs which are optimized by VCB-S group leader LittlePox for Animes.

Most of the modifications are for convenience, such as output as MP4 format or you can try GOP-based output. With GOP-based output you can replace a single GOP if you later want to partially re-encode the clips. Also in case of a power outage you can continue from the break point. You can also cut clips into half and distribute the encoding to multiple CPUs or servers, and later mux them back into one.

Any in-depth detail on what those two tune flags actually do? Like what do they activate

You can check here. A few are for speed optimization, and a few are for anime efficiency.
