mcanime2mal

MCAnime to Myanimelist Exporter. It create a myanimelist xml export file that you can import from the web interface.

It needs user input to resolve differences between names in mcanime and myanimelist. Sometimes the OVAs or Specials are splitted in myanimelist so you will have to add them manually later.

I have a lot of anime in my lists so it was too tedious to do it in one stand. So i made it so you can do it little by little and when you stop the work is saved and you can continue later.

For help run "./mcanime2mal.py --help":
