Adding anime faster?

I've been using this site for who knows how long but only recently decided to start using it with an actual account. I have a text file with wayyy too much anime that I've already seen on it so it gets really tedious to add them all with the already set-up process. Is there any way to add anime faster to my list or am I stuck adding them one by one?

Unfortunately it's not possible to mass import entries just from a text file. This would be pretty complicated to implement because everyone has a different format in their text files and series often have many different entries here (different seasons and different specials), which makes finding the correct entry hard or impossible in many cases.

Have you tried this page? This should be the fastest way to add many series to your list.

You may also try an app like MAL Updater. I have counted and it takes one less click IIRC

Sorry, I didn't mean mass entries. I meant something similar to the way you add favorite characters ect where you can search the name, click to add it then type the next name and so on. That's relatively simple and would be so much easier to do not to mention far less time consuming. And yes I have tried that but Its far too time consuming. Idk this might just be me being lazy :/

I'll have to check out MAL Updater...
