# MyAnimeList Anime Recommendations API

Every recommended title and every recommendation text for one anime, in one answer.

`GET /v1/myanimelist/anime/{id}/recommendations` returns `data.recommendations[]`. Each entry has `id`, `mediaKind`, `title`, `url`, `recommendedBy`, `permalink` and `items[]`, where each item holds the recommendation `text` and the `username` who wrote it.

The list covers every recommendation for the title and has no cursor. Missing recommendations are an empty array on a found title; an unknown anime id returns `lookupStatus: not_found`.

## FAQ

### What does `recommendedBy` count?

It is the number of members who recommended that pair. The same entry can have several recommendation texts in `items`.

### Can I page the recommendations?

No. The result contains the complete recommendation list in one answer, so it has no `page` object.

### How many credits does this request cost?

Pricing is documented on the operation in the API registry (shown on this page). Confirm on every response with meta.creditsCharged: that field is the billing source of truth.

### How do I read the recommendation text?

Join `items[].text` for the pair. `items[].username` is null when the author is not shown.
