Just pulling out a random comment: And additionally: does none of the anime title deserves to be scored 9 or high? Probably not.: 10 - Sugoi This anime is something really big; it changed your mind, gave you a whole new perspective on life and broadened your horizons. If this sounds unfamiliar to yo...

Wlah: Since I'm not sure that my intentions were clear, upon re-reading my post, I'd like to explain what I meant, precisely. I did not mean that this information should not necessarily be added to the entry for a character, but that much of the information was far better suited to a short descripti...

Relations: Ranma Saotome (possible romantic interest) I think this may be a little more information than is needed. And, besides, you're missing the most important aspect of any anime character: hair color. While we're at it, we can add birth date, blood type, favorite foods... But, seriously, I do...

No managing mylist as in it won't add the files it hashes to mylist, or no managing mylist as in no manipulation of the mylist as it stands?

I think that we should keep in mind that there are a lot of official promos in here that are little more than video clips/stills set to either a voiceover or music. Fully animated doesn't always seem to be a priority when making something anime related, and these are certainly things I like having i...

Since both animes and episodes have a seperate method to add the original japanese text, most of the time there's IMO no real need to preserve the info what was in kanji and what was in katakana. Also, "hiragana only in small letters" may look awkward for titles simplified for a younger a...

Either way, there should be a rule for it. I'm in favor of using "n", because to me, it feels awkward to have a single "m" in romaji, while the pronounciation-shift could still be derived from seeing 'n' + next letter. It can be derived, but only if you already know that n + p =...

If you are going to write the particle を as wo, then are you going to put the particle は as ha? That might seem a bit odd to quite a few people. Ditto actually writing senpai. Of course, I might just be unhappy because my creq on Sailor Moon isn't valid if we do this... There are other forms of roma...

I checked Amazon and looked at the DVD covers for those titles, so if they are listed differently elsewhere... Well, the Geneon page should be correct, I suppose. I was only pointing out that it would be important to check the official titles of the series before changing them, and I seem to have my...

Ignoring the first two points: "Ah My Goddess! - The Movie" is actually the title of the movie. Upon checking, the proper name for "Samurai X - The Movie" is "Samurai X - The Motion Picture." Similarly, though I am unsure as to your particular examples, there are some s...

It's true that emule, at least, doesn't handle such links, but that doesn't negate the value of the feature. One possible solution would be to have romaji and kana fields separately for the title, as is the case with anime. Disregarding using files thus named, it would be nice to store the Japanese ...

Splitting them may be a good idea. They are licensed for distribution separately and at each boundary a story arc begins/ends. That seems like a good reason to me. That said, my special subbed-only uncut unedited excellent DVD release from ADV says Season 1 Episodes 1-23, Season 1 Episodes 24-46, Se...

Regarding changing titles: I was changing titles in Sailor Moon ( http://anidb.ath.cx/perl-bin/animedb.pl?show=anime&aid=235 ), happily filing dozens of creqs, when I came upon a problem. The episodes past 46 are marked as Sailor Moon R, Sailor Moon S, and so forth, marking which season they com...

azntimm: I have done just that. I hope that the mods (which, for the past 30 or so creqs, can be read as nwa) don't hate me. Please! PetriW: I believe I read in the bug reports forum that doing so bypasses creqs altogether? I'll look into it. I can use IRC, so if Chii behaves like normal bots I shou...

Thank you. I'll feel free, then, to creq the episodes that need title corrections. I own three seasons of sailor moon (the subbed-only seasons one and two, plus season three dubbed and subbed), so I could check those and correct the titles with the official ones, which should be accurate. Should I d...
