Pixiv Batch Downloader is a browser extension that enables batch downloading of artworks and novels from Pixiv.

The tool addresses the need to efficiently download multiple works from Pixiv rather than saving them individually. It operates as a browser extension that integrates directly into Pixiv.net pages, allowing users to open a downloader panel while browsing. The extension supports filtering works by various criteria, organizing downloads into folders using usernames and titles, customizing file names, and handling multiple content types including illustrations, manga, Ugoira animations, and novels. It can convert animated images to WebP, WebM, GIF, or APNG formats and save novels as TXT or EPUB files. The tool also maintains download history to prevent duplicates and supports resuming incomplete downloads.

The extension runs on Chromium-based browsers such as Chrome and Edge, as well as Firefox, with installation available through official browser stores. It works exclusively on Pixiv.net pages and requires refreshing any already-open Pixiv tabs after installation for the extension to function. The tool suits users who regularly download multiple works from Pixiv and need organizational and filtering capabilities beyond what the site provides natively. It supports scheduled crawling and downloading, batch bookmarking, and various enhancement features for optimizing the Pixiv browsing experience.

Development activity shows consistent engagement with the project through a maintained Discord community channel and multilingual documentation. The tool is actively developed with support for multiple languages including Simplified Chinese, Traditional Chinese, Japanese, English, Korean, and Russian, indicating ongoing localization efforts. The project maintains a wiki with detailed installation and usage instructions, including specialized guidance for offline installation and mobile browser setup on Android devices.
