Ani-Skip

Ani-skip is a script to automatically skip anime opening sequences, making it easier to watch your favorite shows without having to manually skip the intros each time (from the original README).

For install instructions visit ani-skip.

Ani-skip uses the external lua script function of mpv and as such – for now – only works with mpv.

Warning: For now, ani-skip does not seem to work under Windows.

Note: It may be, that ani-skip won't know the anime you're trying to watch. Try using the --skip-title <title> command line argument. (It uses the aniskip API and you can contribute missing anime or ask for including it in the database on their discord server).
