FileBot

I was trying to rename some episodes from the anime "That Time I Got Reincarnated as a Slime" and the information on TVDB website does not match what filebot brings up.
This is what filebot shows

This is what TVDB shows

Also several shows show "no episodes found" that used to work just fine. Examples are My Hero Academia, and Detective Conan

The TheTVDB API server-side code was apparently updated and is now broken in some corner cases. Use TheMovieDB/TV instead for the time being, or wait for TheTVDB engineers fix the issue on their end.

I've created a bug report upstream:
https://github.com/thetvdb/v4-api/issues/324

I recommend switching to TheMovieDB/TV in the meanwhile.

EDIT:

As for That Time I Got Reincarnated as a Slime, the TheTVDB API does indeed seem to return different results. This would be a separate likely unrelated TheTVDB API issue.
