I had a lot of trouble jellyfin and anime until I started putting things into season folders, even if they only had one season. So if I had Ano Hana I'd put the episodes in a folder like this

Media Disk/Anime/Ano Hana/Season 1/episodes_here

If it's a movie, then it goes into a folder with other movies.

Media Disk/Anime Movies/movies_here

Once I started doing that, Jellyfin automatically recognized most Anime.

    I already do this, everything in my media is extremely cleanly named because they are handled by sonarr

    series name/season 00/EPSxxExx-"episode title"

    so it's not a file format issue. It gets a lot of them but there are certain things especially if they are recently aired or currently airing where it will simply fail to find a match until I give it the Japanese name at which point it manages to find the metadata for the English name. Really stupid stuff like that
