[Fix] Character's pictures Request returns the pictures twice

[ym496]

Let's say I want to search for the pictures of a character with user id say 180844

from jikanpy import Jikan
characterid = 180844
jikan = Jikan()
output = jikan.character(characterid,'pictures')

On mal this character has two images so it should return two large and two short images but the output is something like:

{'pictures': [{'large': 'https://cdn.myanimelist.net/images/characters/3/405871.jpg', 'small':
'https://cdn.myanimelist.net/images/characters/3/405871.jpg'}, {'large':
'https://cdn.myanimelist.net/images/characters/6/417850.jpg', 'small':
'https://cdn.myanimelist.net/images/characters/6/417850.jpg'}, {'large':
'https://cdn.myanimelist.net/images/characters/3/405871.jpg', 'small':
'https://cdn.myanimelist.net/images/characters/3/405871.jpg'}, {'large':
'https://cdn.myanimelist.net/images/characters/6/417850.jpg', 'small':
'https://cdn.myanimelist.net/images/characters/6/417850.jpg'}]}

Basically the latter images are same as the starting ones.

What JikanPy is doing in this case is making an API request to https://api.jikan.moe/v3/character/180844/pictures and returning the JSON. If you open the link in your browser you should see something like:

{
  "request_hash": "request:character:5aa427c33cbddee4bfdea968e915ed3ddb1034d3",
  "request_cached": true,
  "request_cache_expiry": 46809,
  "pictures": [
    {
      "large": "https://cdn.myanimelist.net/images/characters/3/405871.jpg",
      "small": "https://cdn.myanimelist.net/images/characters/3/405871.jpg"
    },
    {
      "large": "https://cdn.myanimelist.net/images/characters/6/417850.jpg",
      "small": "https://cdn.myanimelist.net/images/characters/6/417850.jpg"
    },
    {
      "large": "https://cdn.myanimelist.net/images/characters/3/405871.jpg",
      "small": "https://cdn.myanimelist.net/images/characters/3/405871.jpg"
    },
    {
      "large": "https://cdn.myanimelist.net/images/characters/6/417850.jpg",
      "small": "https://cdn.myanimelist.net/images/characters/6/417850.jpg"
    }
  ]
}

Since the API response JSON looks like this, this seems to be an issue with the Jikan API, not JikanPy, so I recommend you create an issue at https://github.com/jikan-me/jikan. Sorry I couldn't help more.
