Adding Sources

Once Himitsu is installed on your device, you can bring your own content to watch from various sources:

External repositories

External repositories add additional sources to Himitsu.

You can add external repositories by visiting the Extensions page of the app settings or clicking the GitHub icon in the top right of the Extensions page.

Once there, tap Add [Anime, Manga, or Novel] Repo and input the raw URL of the index.min.json file using the format:

https://raw.githubusercontent/user/repository/branch/index.min.json

Repositories can also be entered in "short form" by using aniyomi for anime, tachiyomi for manga, or novels for novels in the format:

type:branch@user/repository

Caution

Himitsu will not provide any support for repositories. Beware that any third-party repositories or extensions will have full access to the app and may contain malware.

Note

Once you've added a repository, it will automatically refresh.
You can now tap the download button next to extensions to install them.

Manual extensions

Extensions can be manually installed through .apk files and will appear in the installed extension list for their particular type.

Caution

Himitsu will not provide any support for extensions. Beware that any third-party repositories or extensions will have full access to the app and may contain malware.

Trouble finding a title?

If you encounter difficulties while searching for a specific series, try these tips:

• Some sources may use Japanese Romanized titles instead of English ones.

  Example: Boku no Hero Academia instead of My Hero Academia.

• Some sources may use different spellings or wordings for titles.

  Example: Bungo Stray Dogs instead of Bungou Stray Dogs

  Example: 3-gatsu no Lion instead of Sangatsu no Lion.
