Is aniSoroTUI free?

Yes — aniSoroTUI is completely free and open source (GPL-3.0). No paywalls, no ads.

Where does it stream from?

anidb.se. Search, episodes, and streams all come straight from anidb.se — no account needed.

What operating systems are supported?

Windows, Linux, and macOS (amd64 & arm64).

What media players does it support?

mpv, vlc, iina (macOS), and haruna. aniSoroTUI auto-detects your player, or set the ANITUI_PLAYER environment variable.

Is a mouse needed?

No — everything works with vim keys or arrow keys. The mouse is just a bonus (like the clickable credit button).

How do I download aniSoroTUI? (aniSoroTUI download)

Grab the source from github.com/T4fs/aniSoroTUI and build it — the Download section has copy-paste commands for Windows, Linux, and macOS. No npm packages, no accounts, no ads.

It lives on GitHub: github.com/T4fs/aniSoroTUI — open source under GPL-3.0, built in Go with bubbletea. Stars and issues are welcome.

How do I watch anime episodes in the terminal?

Search for a title, open the episode list, pick an episode, choose sub or dub, and press enter — aniSoroTUI hands the stream to mpv/vlc/iina/haruna. That's the whole flow: search, episodes, play.

Is there an aniSoroTUI community or reddit?

Not yet — the project is brand new. The place to ask questions, report bugs, and request features is the GitHub Issues page.
