Feature Description

Please include the motivation / use case for this feature. It would make it look nicer. I tried doing this with replace but it seems regex would be better suited as these values are the same score is always 0.00 if unspecified which can be changed to N/A as per site to adhere to site look.

Start_date = Start Date
End_date  = End Date
0000-00-00 = ?
0.00 = N/A
0 = Unknown

I think 0000-00-00 = Unknown is better

[Stonedestroyer]

Probably is, I was just following the example on here https://myanimelist.net/manga/110615/Arifureta_Shokugyou_de_Sekai_Saikyou_Zero where it says ? but for a format to show in Discord I guess it could also be unknown.

I'm assuming that it says 0000-00-00 to be used as a placeholder date, but it means that the anime is hasn't finished. This is a pretty easy change, so I'll look to adding it. I'll mostly likely change that to "Currently Airing". There are some other anime that have a definitive year that is planned to end. Possibly due to not having a set renewal yet. For example, black clover says that it is 2018-00-00. Even if you count the weeks for the remaining episodes, sometimes Japan has events or a special air time that interferes with the release schedule.

How about this, have End date check for its Status. If Status not Finished, use Status as End Date

[Redjumpman]

That would work.
