How to extract the list of anime girls in this repository?

There is no easy and robust way to extract the names, I guess

You could try parsing the filenames (would be very approximate though) (you could improve this by comparing the filenames against a database of names)

But I mean if you are really determined, it's still doable manually to label every image

An index of some sort would be really helpful but the biggest barrier to having that is the time investment of cataloging every girl in this repo. If theres enough interest in tackling this I would not be opposed to adding this in the Projects section of the repo to direct people to work on it.

This PR seems relevant to this issue so Im just going to link them to each other
#276

the best way to do this would probably with be some sort of tagging like a booru

A more robust file naming convention might also be in order (i.e Name_Name-Book_Book), but that might be a pain

Its hard without a list ---I'm looking for Winry Rockbell (Don't ask.)

A more robust file naming convention might also be in order (i.e Name_Name-Book_Book), but that might be a pain

Why it would be a pain? the current naming convention (which in the README.md says "File_Names_Are_Cool.png") only uses underline to separate text, this isn't too far from using underline as spaces and hiphen to separate info (such as your example "Name_Name-Book_Book").

if the problem is renaming all images, a simple scripting with perl or python may do the work.

why is it a pain

because then we have to rename all of them lol

write a script

there's no regularity to the amount of words a characters name is, some have the word 'holding' in them and some don't, etc. you might be able to do something to automatically detect the names to isolate the character part of it though with something not too complicated
