setting up jellyfin for anime properly (lemmy.world)

so im setting up a proper anime server and im kind of stuck on the metadata

been running jellyfin for a bit , had everything scan and it looked fine at first but then i noticed stuff was misclassified , wrong episode orders, some seasons (of the same show) getting merged when they shouldnt be. basically a mess

wiped everything and starting fresh. currently looking at shoko server + shokofin plugin as the proper solution instead of just trying to fix filenames manually

my situation is a bit different tho , i dont torrent. most of my stuff came from animepahe and similar sites so the files are encoded in mp4 ,

anyone gone through this with a similar source situation ? is shoko the move or is there something better for my anime :)

thanks!

Edit : Almost forgot ! if you have any tools, tips or anything really that would be helpful to a beginner like me (like tailscale) please mention them in the comments and i will check them out.

I like using sonarr(https://sonarr.tv/) - you can assign the episodes and seasons. Then you can have it rename them. There is an absolute episode numbering setting. Trash guides is helpful too: https://trash-guides.info/

My setup is for Plex, but I'm assuming Jellyfin should be able to consume the library names the same
