About search results in Japanese

[pan26 6]

I am Japanese. Please note that the text has been converted by translation.

If you search for part of a title, the title containing it may not be displayed in the search results.

For example, if the title is "abcdefg", "abcdefg" will not be displayed in the search results for "def".
My guess is that it will only be searched if there are spaces or symbols before or after. Therefore, I think that this is because there are no spaces between words in Japanese.

Is there currently a way to get the search results I want?

HI, currently partial words are not matched, although this may change in future updates. Thanks.

The point is that in Japanese there are no word markers, so that policy is bound to fail.

As expected, it is currently impossible to obtain the search results I expect.

In the case of Japanese, I think it will be a partial match process, but I can imagine that the execution cost is quite high, so I don't expect it to be updated in the future.
It is very disappointing.

I'll try to see if there's anything I can do to cover this up.

thank you.

OK thanks for reporting. We’ll take a look.

During this New Year's holiday season, my child asked me why I couldn't search for "ガンダム".
As was the case when I wrote this topic, it is difficult to visually search for the desired title from over 1500 anime titles.

Currently, the library has the following "ガンダム" titles

機動戦士ガンダム00
機動戦士ガンダム 復讐のレクイエム
機動戦士Zガンダム
機動戦士ガンダム 第08MS小隊
機動戦士ガンダム 鉄血のオルフェンズ
新機動戦記ガンダムW

Is it possible to make it possible to search by partial matches in the options?
