Anime Card Type

Under Construction

This documentation is actively being developed.

This card design was created by CollinHeist, and designed by Reddit User /u/Recker_Man. Because this is the only card which explicitly supports adding kanji, this is the de-facto card type used for most Anime series by most users.

These cards feature relatively unobtrusive text in the lower left-hand corner of the image. The kanji, title, and season/episode text can all be adjusted.

Adding Kanji

This card supports the addition of Kanji (Japanese text) to the Card through TCM's built-in translation feature.

For the specified Series (or within a Template), add a translation which reads as "Translate Japanese titles into kanji".

Recommendation

Rather than specifying this translation for each Series, it is recommended to use a Template containing the correct card type and translation(s), and then add that Template to your Series.

To go one step further, you can auto-assign this Template to a subset of your Series when Syncing; or add the Template with some filters (i.e. by library name) to your Global Templates.
