Why I Built ani-sync: The Zero-Buffering Terminal Anime Streamer with Multi-Cloud Sync

说明与用途

ani-sync 是一个终端动漫播放器，通过 64 个并行连接、RAM‑disk 缓存实现零缓冲，并自动同步 MyAnimeList、AniList 和 Kitsu 上的观看进度。

问题

Streaming anime from a terminal is slow, requires manual scrobbling, and consumes heavy browser resources.

结果

ani-sync reduces buffering to 0 s, cuts RAM usage from 3 GB to ~30 MB, keeps CPU <5 % by GPU decoding, and automates multi‑platform progress sync.

工作流

• 1. Install ani-sync via one‑liner or package manager
• 2. Search for anime with "ani-sync <anime>"
• 3. Stream with optional --skip for auto‑skip
• 4. Use "ani-sync continue" to resume last watched
• 5. Batch download with -d and episode range
• 6. Progress auto‑sync to MAL, AniList, Kitsu on episode finish
