aniterm 1.0.15

Stream anime from your terminal

Aniterm

Stream anime from your terminal.

Requirements

• mpv — video player
• yt-dlp — streaming
• curl_cffi — pip install aniterm[cloudflare] (needed for Cloudflare bypass)
• python3
• fzf — recommended for scrollable episode browser (apt/brew/pkg install fzf)

Install

pip install aniterm           # from PyPI

Or run directly from the repo:

git clone https://github.com/amalxloop/aniterm.git
./aniterm/aniterm

Termux (Android)

pkg install mpv yt-dlp fzf python
pip install aniterm[cloudflare]

Without curl_cffi (pip install curl_cffi), yt-dlp can't bypass Cloudflare — most streams will fail. Install it if possible.

Usage

aniterm <query>                   Search anime
aniterm <id>                      Browse episodes (fzf if installed)
aniterm <id> <ep>                 Play episode (subbed)
aniterm <id> <ep> -dub            Play dubbed episode
aniterm <id> <ep> -n              Next/prev prompt after playback
aniterm -i <query>                Interactive mode
aniterm <id> -i                   Pick episode interactively

Examples

aniterm cowboy bebop              # search (no keyword needed)
aniterm 1                         # list episodes
aniterm 1 1                       # play episode 1
aniterm 21 1000                   # play One Piece episode 1000
aniterm -i "attack on titan"      # interactive

Notes

• Episode counts for ongoing anime (e.g. One Piece) are derived from AniList's nextAiringEpisode data
