About this endpoint

GET /v1/myanimelist/manga/{id}/recommendations returns data.recommendations[] with id, mediaKind, title, url, recommendedBy, permalink and items[] texts. The result has no cursor, because all recommendations are returned at once.

Use recommendedBy to rank the pair by how many members agree and items[].text for the prose. A manga with no recommendations returns lookupStatus: found with an empty array.

MyAnimeList Manga Recommendations API FAQ

What is `permalink`?

It links to the recommendation pair on MyAnimeList. It can be null when no direct link is available for that entry.

Are the recommended manga ids included?

Yes. Each recommendation carries the recommended title id and mediaKind, so you can open it with /manga/{id} or /anime/{id}.

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.

Why does the response have no page object?

The result contains the complete recommendation set. If you need only the strongest pairs, sort on recommendedBy yourself.
