The result from this will be used to query against `gogoanime` and return similar named anime If selecting an anime from the provided list, the [anime selection](#anime-selection) menu will be skipped and the program will move on to [episode selection](#episode-selection) for the chosen anime # Anime Selection

> Half-episodes (ex. saihate-no-paladin episode 7.5) are selectable, however they will not show up in the episodes list. > To select half episodes add 'h' to the beginning for episodes like '7.5' -> 'h7' to select saihate-no-paladin episode 7.5 Here you will be prompted to select the episode(s) to download Multiple episodes can be downloaded by giving the episode range like so ``` Select Episode [1-13]: 1 6 ``` This would open/download episodes 1 2 3 4 5 6 # Play from File
