MyAnimeList Featured Article API FAQ
How is a featured article different from news?
The article shape is shared and kind says featured. Featured articles are a separate editorial list, so use /featured to discover ids and /news for news articles.
Are related titles included?
Yes, when the article names anime or manga. Each entry carries kind, id, title and url, and the array is empty otherwise.
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.
Can I get the lead image?
imageUrl carries the lead image when one is available. It can be null, so handle that case before rendering a hero image.
