AniDB supports a number of short links that links to different aspects of the DataBase, they are meant as a convenience for linking to information on AniDB. So for example, instead of having a link that looks like this: http://anidb.info/perl-bin/animedb.pl?show=animelist&adb.search=Hachimitsu&do.search=search which might not even work correctly if, say, the anime gets a sequel; in which case that link would lead to a search page listing both those anime. What you rather should do instead is link to the actual anime page for the anime. Such a link always contains an '''aid''', or an '''a'''nime '''id'''. For ''Hachimitsu to Clover'' that aid is '''2835''', and the link would look like this: http://anidb.info/perl-bin/animedb.pl?show=anime&aid=2835. Now, if you use short links the link is even more convenient: http://anidb.info/a2835. Let's review. We have the search-link, the animelink, and the short link: | AniDB supports a number of short links that links to different aspects of the DataBase, they are meant as a convenience for linking to information on AniDB.
