Jikan.net is a .NET wrapper for Jikan RESTful API for parsing data from MyAnimeList. Main objective of the wrapper is to simplify utilization of Jikan API, as strongly typed languages are not-so-easy to use with elastic json (sure we can go use dynamics in .NET, but let's think about performance).

• Written in .Net Standard 2.0, compatible with .Net Framework (4.6.1 or newer) and .Net Core (2.0 or newer).
• Fully asynchromous request fetching (can be forced to synchromous if needed).
• Can handle both SSL encrypted and non-SSL encrypted requests.
• Light on dependencies (require only Newtonsoft.Json for parsing).
• Usable with Dependency Injection.
