One way would be to use CSS selectors and the select function:

actual_items = soup.select('div.content > div.items > div.item.watching')
for item in actual_items:
    print(item.prettify())

I am not a beautiful soup expert, but I had a similar problem where using find_all and then creating a smaller variable did help me to visualize the information.

df=pd.DataFrame()

for i in soup:
    class_items = i.find_all("div", class_="item_watching")
    for x in class_items:
        df = df.append({'Actual Items': x.text.strip()}, ignore_index=True)

I want to scrape info from each of the "item watching" in the "items" class. I’m stuck because when I try find it only finds the HTML for the first “item watching” but I don’t want to use find_all because it gives a massive blob that I can’t prettify and it would make it more difficult to cycle through the information.

soup = BeautifulSoup(res.text, "html.parser") # SOUP
class_items = soup.find("div", attrs={"data-name":"watching"}).find("div", class_="items") # Narrowed Down

actual_items = class_items.find("div", class_="item watching") # Was thinking [x] so I can cycle?

The whole shabang:

import requests
from bs4 import BeautifulSoup
payload = {"username":"?????", "password":"?????"}
url = "https://9anime.to/user/watchlist"
loginurl = "https://9anime.to/user/ajax/login"
with requests.Session() as s:
    res = s.post(loginurl, data=payload)
    res = s.get(url)
    soup = BeautifulSoup(res.text, "html.parser")
    class_items = soup.find("div", attrs={"data-name":"watching"}).find("div", class_="items")
    actual_items = class_items.find_next("div", class_="item watching")
    print(actual_items.prettify())

site url: https://9anime.to/
login url: https://9anime.to/user/ajax/login

Expected output for each “item watching” (Similar format for each):

<div class="item watching">
 <a class="thumb" href="/watch/kaguya-sama-love-is-war-season-2.omkj?ep=7">
  <img alt="Kaguya-sama: Love is War Season 2" src="https://static.akacdn.ru/files/images/2019/10/f53e6536aa7b3b95e6fe4c6d7b8e1a9b.jpg"/>
