ANIMATA vs Manual Content Creation

| Staff & Characters | Advanced Taxonomies: Automatically links staff, actors and characters played. | Simple text entries (non-searchable) or much time of manual linking. |
| Media Handling | Instant Import: Auto-uploads Posters, Banners, embed Trailer, and Actors and Characters thumbnails. | Manual download, resizing, renaming, and uploading to Library. |
| Database Depth | Rich Ecosystem: Full support for Anime, Manga, and Novels metadata. | Superficial data due to the effort required for each post. |
| Scalability | High: Build a massive, cross-linked database in a fraction of the time. | Low: Limited by how many posts you can manually type. |

Theme used in Live Demo is a custom Elementor template made by us and used only for showcase purposes. It is NOT included on the package for customers.
Plugin comes with a default output that runs automatically before “the_content”. The default CSS output also can be customized. The visual result will depend on the theme you are using.
