🌸 Chou Megumi Download 🌸

🚀 Supercharge Your Anime Downloads!

It's a cross-platform version of a program previously written in C# called Megumi_Download for Windows, which, in a nutshell, allowed downloading anime episodes from a seedbox, moving them to the appropriate folders, renaming the file (to a system recognized by Kodi's TVDB standard) and automatically replacing various things in the subtitles (order of names, honorifics, etc.). Admittedly, it could be run through Wine on macOS and Linux without any problems, but it had other issues. The most important change is that it has now been rewritten to Python and supports not only parallel downloading of multiple episodes, but also downloading using chunks. Both things speed up the whole process a lot. Everything is configurable. Also, because it is written in Python, it starts natively on any system with a Python interpreter installed.

When using a URL for automatic list download, ensure it points to a plain text file with the correct formatting. The script will validate the content before using it for subtitle processing. If you use pastebin, make sure you're using "raw" link (pastebin.com/raw/file) that will provide plain text.
