A gui tool to browse and play anime

• Stars: 6
• Release with the AppImage: v0.14.0 (2026-09-27T11:16:22Z)
• AppImage asset: ani-gui-0.14.0-x86_64.AppImage
• License: GPL-3.0

Found by .github/workflows/discover-apps.yml, which looks for GitHub
repositories that publish AppImages but are not in the catalog yet. This
entry was not tested by a human; please review it before merging.

Possibly not from the application's authors: the README says "repackaged" (label not-upstream). Please check whether the catalog should list this AppImage, or rather one from the application's own project.

❌ Test failure

@JoaoPucci: this pull request adds the AppImage from your GitHub repository to the AppImage catalog; the test reports the following. Could you have a look?

Compatibility: not self-contained: uses the C library of the system; references glibc 2.39

• A file inside the AppImage is not executable. Please check the file permissions before packaging the AppImage.
• The application quit or crashed right after starting. The error below usually shows why.

First error in the log:

/bin/bash: line 1: /run/firejail/appimage/AppRun: Permission denied

The application showed no window, but may be a system tray application (usr/lib/libappindicator.so.1: libappindicator.so.1); running it again with a system tray
/bin/bash: line 1: /run/firejail/appimage/AppRun: Permission denied
No icon appeared in the system tray either
ERROR: The application exited within 11 seconds instead of showing a window

What next: once the AppImage is fixed (e.g. in a new release), comment /retest here to test it again. If it should not be in the catalog after all, close this pull request; an app that is already in the catalog can be removed by a maintainer with /remove.

Notes:

• File name 'ani-gui': all-lowercase names are typically used for command line tools, but the desktop file does not set Terminal=true. If this is a graphical application, please name the file after the application as it is spelled, with capitals where it has them (e.g. 'Krita'); if it is a command line tool, set Terminal=true in its desktop file.

• The AppImage was built on a system that is too new. Please build it on the oldest still-supported Ubuntu LTS release so that it runs on all supported systems.

• The application quit or crashed right after starting. The error below usually shows why.
