Since I am using Hummingbird as my main anime site, but I have seen 200+ anime and I want to update my MAL, is there a way to import my list from HB to MAL?

Because it will take a long time for me to do EVERYTHING manually.

you can only import from anidb and mal. There's a script for importing from anilist but no scripts for hummingbird.

Did that, it worked, although, why does it still say I've only seen 91 anime instead of 200+?

Stats might take up to 24 hours to update. You can use the list like normal while you wait for the update.

Try:

1)https://malscraper.azurewebsites.net/

1.1 Your a-p username:
1.2 Pick anime-planet (experimental)

2)https://myanimelist.net/import.php

2.1 Myanimelist import.

I have no idea, if this will work.

If you don't understand shit , just add the Animes manually to your list.
