Naruto

With regard to Naruto, the main series under that name is technically no longer in production; however if you are saying it is based on the continuation in Shipuuden, then I think you should include those episodes in the episode count. --Kraftlos (talk) 09:30, 6 August 2008 (UTC)

I agree. It is confusing at least to say Naruto is not in production any more. --Drizzd (talk) 20:17, 15 August 2008 (UTC)
Similarly, if we're going to distinguish between seasons with a separate name and different characters; Pokemon should be split up into the five or six separate "Pokemon - subtitle of whatever the hell we're doing this year goes here" series since essentially those separations are roughly equivalent to naruto vs. naruto shippuden. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.55.51.24 (talk) 02:53, 7 March 2009 (UTC)
The problem is that, at least insofar as anime is concerned, the distinction between seasons and sequels is rather hairy and often takes someone close to the series in question to clarify. That, and we haven't really figured out just how we're dealing with such cases here yet... (perhaps we should base it off of how the series is marketed - a continuation, or a separate series? But that still raises issues of its own...) 「ダイノガイ千？！」(Dinoguy1000) 18:22, 7 March 2009 (UTC)
In Naruto's case, there is a clear definition between the two. Not only do they deal with different events, but there is a clear end and a clear beginning between the two. Shippuden is clearly marketed as a sequal, not the same as 'regular' Naruto Dandy Sephy (talk) 18:34, 7 March 2009 (UTC)
Unfortunately, though, most series can't play ball like Naruto does, which leads to problems like how to treat Pokemon (with a bat, but I digress =D ). 「ダイノガイ千？！」(Dinoguy1000) 18:44, 7 March 2009 (UTC)
Yep, totally agree. But those two examples name themselves 'series' 2. I can't speak for pokemon, but stuff like Geass and Gundam 00 are good examples of when to put both together. But its irrelevant really, neither of those examples would even make the list :p We definately need an experienced editor who is familiar with pokemon to give some input. Dandy Sephy (talk) 18:48, 7 March 2009 (UTC)
Yep, I know (about them not making the list), they're just the two I was thinking about at the time. 「ダイノガイ千？！」(Dinoguy1000) 18:49, 7 March 2009 (UTC)

Episode lists?

Should episode lists be linked to, when they exist? And if so, how should they be linked? (I'd be preferential towards linking from the number of episodes) —Dinoguy1000 17:51, 11 September 2008 (UTC)

I think so, and I agree with linking the number of episodes. ···日本穣? · Talk to Nihonjoe 02:41, 12 September 2008 (UTC)
Sounds good to me, too. --Masamage ♫ 03:19, 12 September 2008 (UTC)
All right, then, I'll throw in some links in a minute. Feel free to add more if I happen to miss some... —Dinoguy1000 18:14, 12 September 2008 (UTC)

OVAs

We need some assistance fleshing-out this section. If you are aware of some lengthy OVAs, as well as sources for this information, please help out. Thanks! ···日本穣? · Talk to Nihonjoe 03:28, 12 September 2008 (UTC)

Do we want to include ONAs in this list, or create another one? ···日本穣? · Talk to Nihonjoe 03:40, 21 October 2008 (UTC)
I ask because Magical Play has 22 episodes. ···日本穣? · Talk to Nihonjoe 03:41, 21 October 2008 (UTC)
Why not? I see no reason not to include them, and I seriously doubt there will be enough to support a stand-alone list, so I'd say create a new section for them here. —Dinoguy1000 17:26, 21 October 2008 (UTC)

What about manga?

Should we create a similar list for manga series, and if so, how should it work? —Dinoguy1000 17:41, 17 October 2008 (UTC)

About like this. --Masamage ♫ 19:14, 17 October 2008 (UTC)
I was aware of that list, I was referring to a list of the longest[-running] manga series. ;) —Dinoguy1000 15:58, 18 October 2008 (UTC)
I would support such a list. I believe Kochikame would top the list. ···日本穣? · Talk to Nihonjoe 22:51, 18 October 2008 (UTC)
...closely followed by Golgo 13 (can't believe I actually remembered that). *updates anime list with Kochikame* What should we call such a list? I'd suggest "List of longest-running manga series", but that's unnecessarily ambiguous, suggests the list covers span of publication when it would probably actually cover length (number of tankōbon, chapters or pages?), and doesn't match the naming of this list anyways. Perhaps, then, "List of manga series by [volume/chapter/page] count"? And what should the threshold for inclusion be? —Dinoguy1000 18:03, 20 October 2008 (UTC)

I went ahead and started the list at List of manga series by volume count, with the current cutoff at 35 volumes (I was debating 30 for a while, but decided to up it at the last minute; we can always adjust it later if need be). I'm currently debating whether it should also list [light] novels, any thoughts? (note that I'm cross-posting an announcement on the project talk page as well) —Dinoguy1000 21:45, 12 November 2008 (UTC)

Nintama Rantarō

Hi, I stumbled across this list. It claims Nintama Rantarō to have over 1000 episodes. However, the only source is in Japanese, so I am unable to verify this. -- Goodraise (talk) 16:25, 14 November 2008 (UTC)

The main article's infobox says it has 1,219 episodes as of November 13, 2008; I have the distinct feeling, though, that this is actually a vignette count, with each episode being comprised of 2 or more shorter vignettes. ANN would seem to confirm this, as they only list 683 titles (though it's worth pointing out that the last episode on their list is dated October 22, 2004, and based on the ep release/air dates given, it seems to be released on a daily schedule... so actually, these could be full half-hour episodes). Vignettes or no, though, this series is definitely long enough to make the list - it's just an issue of which episode count to use (I'm going to go with ANN's count for now, and if someone can point out a source for the >1000 count, we can update it as such). —Dinoguy1000 21:57, 14 November 2008 (UTC)
The NHK site lists all the episodes by "series" (there are 16 "series" in the series), for a total of 1303 episodes. ···日本穣? · Talk to Nihonjoe 03:23, 15 November 2008 (UTC)
All right, cool. That should also make it pretty easy for a full episode list to be created here (and provide the perfect places to split the list into sublists), if anyone cares to undertake all the repetitive copy-paste work it would entail. —Dinoguy1000 18:39, 15 November 2008 (UTC)
I've pasted a bunch of information to Talk:List of Nintama Rantarō episodes. I'll see when I can get to formatting, translating, and transliterating it unless someone else beats me to it. ···日本穣? · 投稿 · Talk to Nihonjoe 21:09, 10 October 2009 (UTC)

Digimon episodes

While the series are somehow connected, they are different anime productions. Each series have commonly 50 episodes. Their relation is more of a spin-off and have different names, although the second anime is a direct sequel to the first. Regards.Tintor2 (talk) 01:21, 26 November 2008 (UTC)

I agree, they shouldn't be on the list as one series. I have removed it. ···日本穣? · Talk to Nihonjoe 02:58, 26 November 2008 (UTC)
Look here though, Digimon seasons 1-4 were exclusively called only 'Digimon' outside of Japan. That would be at least 200 episodes. The fifth season, titled Digimon Data Squad outside of Japan, is the first two have a different title. No point in removing it for this reason, since Wikipedia does go on the names from the English version, and since all have the name 'Digimon', they should be included in this list. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 74.176.134.153 (talk) 00:53, 17 June 2009 (UTC)
It doesn't matter what they were called outside of Japan for the purposes of this list, though. This list goes by the original production. ···日本穣? · 投稿 · Talk to Nihonjoe 20:31, 10 October 2009 (UTC)

Ojamajo Doremi...?

I just gave this a quick glance, but it seems to be that the Ojamajo Doremi series isn't listed here. Unlike the Pretty Cure franchies, Ojamajo Doremi was a long on-going tv series that were interconnected. All 4 TV series and 1 OVA (Although, technically is now considered a "Tv" series due to airing first as such) are all related to each other and are not self contained. As a result, it's 201 episodes long. 214 if you include Na-i-sho, which takes place between Motto! and Dokkaan. Considering Sailor Moon was also listed here despite being divided up into several series, I think Doremi should also be listed here. I would've added it myself, but I thought I'd run it through here first. Mendinso (talk) 14:46, 8 December 2008 (UTC)

According to the article, you're right, and I'll add it in a minute. However, the OVA doesn't have enough episodes to list here (it has 13, 15 epsidoes are necessary). —Dinoguy1000 21:46, 8 December 2008 (UTC)
I don't know that Sailor Moon should be listed as each series is self-contained (though watching the other series certainly enhances the enjoyability). The same goes with Ojamajo Doremi. Each series has a self-contained story. ···日本穣? · Talk to Nihonjoe 05:53, 9 December 2008 (UTC)
They're not self contained, as they are directly linked to each other. I already explained this. If they were really self contained, they would not constantly reference the past series and wouldn't make notes of events that have happened, in which sometimes the events influence the next series. Infact, Ojamajo Doremi Sharp takes place about a day after the first series, the second and third series takes not long after each other (since the girls are upset over an issue that happened at the end of Sharp), and Motto's ending is what leads into Dokkaan~!. To say they're self contained is not true. If anything, Sailor Moon is slightly more self contained, but it's still an on going story. Mendinso (talk) 08:45, 9 December 2008 (UTC)
Well, according to that logic, then, Naruto and Naruto: Shippuuden (and Dragon Ball and Dragon Ball Z) are also not self-contained, since they are even more closely linked to each other than the four seasons of Ojamajo Doremi. This is all rather confusing... =P —Dinoguy1000 19:27, 9 December 2008 (UTC)
I think you are misunderstanding the meaning of "self-contained". "Self-contained" does not mean that the stories aren't related, or that they don't happen in close succession. What it does mean is that you could take any one of those series, watch them, and they would contain a story that stands on its own without requiring viewing of any of the others. Yes, viewing the others would certainly enhance your enjoyment and understanding of the each one, but it's certainly not required to understand any specific series.
What you need to understand is that they are separate series. Closely related series, but separate. ···日本穣? · Talk to Nihonjoe 08:16, 10 December 2008 (UTC)
I want to reopen this discussion. Apparently the only reason for Sailor Moon not being listed is that each season is its own story. This is true, but they are still all part of one anime, and it has 200 episodes in total and therefore belongs on the list. In Azumanga Daioh every episode is its own self-contained story, but you wouldn't describe it as 26 distinct series containing one episode each, would you? 91.105.37.45 (talk) 21:42, 16 September 2009 (UTC)
Was each season of Sailor Moon a separate production (a la InuYasha vs. InuYasha: Final Act), or did they lead into each other (a la Code Geass vs. Code Geass: R2, or Mobile Suit Gundam 00 season 1 vs. Mobile Suit Gundam 00 season 2) (and no, I'm not talking in terms of plot)? 「ダイノガイ千？！」? · Talk⇒Dinoguy1000 16:52, 17 September 2009 (UTC)
They were each a self-contained story, with little story crossover between series. They were separate productions, too, and are listed as separate series in all the Japanese reference materials I have. The main characters for each of them was the same (Usagi, Ami, Rei, Makoto, Minako, and Mamoru), with a couple new ones being added as things progressed. They are separate anime series, though. There's not really an equivalent I can think of outside of Japan for how they were set up. ···日本穣? · 投稿 · Talk to Nihonjoe 20:24, 10 October 2009 (UTC)

Dragon Ball

drgon bll hd more episodes, plese chnge it. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 79.139.96.8 (talk • contribs) 18:39, 22 August 2009 (UTC)

Dragon Ball didn't have more episodes, actually. There are three Dragon Ball TV series, and each one has a different episode count. They are not combined. ···日本穣? · 投稿 · Talk to Nihonjoe 19:36, 22 August 2009 (UTC)
In addition, Kai is an edited rerelease, so doesn't really qualify as a separate series (regardless of whether it has its own episode list) nor are its episodes counted in addition to DBZ. 「ダイノガイ千？！」? · Talk⇒Dinoguy1000 16:43, 24 August 2009 (UTC)
If dragonball is seen as 3 seperate series, why is pokemon not seen as several different series? Taketa (talk) 18:05, 25 November 2009 (UTC)

Chi's Sweet Home

Chi's Sweet Home seems to currently have 208 episodes, counting both seasons (as discussed about Naruto and such above). Shouldn't it count? -- Shadikka 14:08, 9 October 2009 (UTC)

Are both seasons considered to be parts of the same anime series? If so, feel free to add it. =) 「ダイノガイ千？！」? · Talk⇒Dinoguy1000 19:13, 9 October 2009 (UTC)

Pokemon

Why is the Pokemon series said to have over 600+ episodes when it is split into leagues? Aren't these simply different series? I'm asking becuase the Naruto franchise is not combined and the Pokemon episodes are. NarSakSasLee (talk) 20:06, 10 October 2009 (UTC)

From what I have seen of the Pokemon anime (which, admittedly, isn't much beyond the first two or three seasons), it all seems to be one series plot- and character-wise; the "leagues" that the series is split into mostly seem to correspond to major arcs or legs of Ash's travels. it probably needs further review regardless, though. On the other hand, Naruto is split because even the manga was split by the timeskip into two parts, and the anime series have always been treated separately from each other in all the media I've seen concerning them. 「ダイノガイ千？！」? · Talk⇒Dinoguy1000 17:26, 13 October 2009 (UTC)
The anime is officially split into three series, "Pocket Monsters" (276 episodes), "Pocket Monsters Advanced Generation" (192 episodes) and "Pocket Monsters Diamond & Pearl" (171 episodes and currently running). Combining all three into one franchise isn't illogical, but doing so while keeping the different "Naruto", "Dragonball", "Ranma 1/2" and "Sailor Moon" series (and probably a couple others, too) separate makes no sense. The situation is exactly the same with these as the Pokemon anime.134.129.205.173 (talk) 07:54, 15 April 2010 (UTC)
If this can be shown with reliable sources, I have no problem splitting it into three different entries. ···日本穣? · 投稿 · Talk to Nihonjoe · Join WikiProject Japan! 04:12, 2 June 2010 (UTC)

The series contains 200 episodes - granted, they are in different seasons, but so is Pokemon, which is also listed here. It has 200 episodes. And if someone is going to type INTO THE CODING 'please do not put sailor moon here' then please explain why here, so that other wiki=ers don't question their authority. 141.154.65.141 (talk) 04:52, 5 July 2010 (UTC)Talk to akethy

Sailor Moon is a weird show, the seasons, are really just the same thing, just labeled for different arcs. Kind of like a subtext of how DBZ likes to label it's arcs by 'Frieza, Namek, Android, Cell' ETC. I believe that the entire series should be considered to put as it's own thing, mainly because it seems like the actual 'seasons' are actually connected then them being stand alone. --173.29.89.118 (talk) 03:37, 4 July 2011 (UTC)

Katanagatari

Is there any reason why this is listed as an OVA? The show aired on BS Fujii for it initial premiere. It just was aired on TV every month instead of every week. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.171.23.141 (talk) 03:15, 14 February 2011 (UTC)

Why only top 56

why only top 56 anime's by episodes. has anyone considered expanding it to a top 100, it would be very useful--Misconceptions2 (talk) 17:16, 22 March 2012 (UTC)

I agree. 56 is an odd number to base this article on. NarSakSasLee (talk) 20:13, 23 March 2012 (UTC)
It's not a top 50, 100, etc. It's based on series that have at least 150 episodes. This keeps the article concise. ~ Hibana (talk) 03:03, 24 March 2012 (UTC)
Exactly. There is no set number of series for this list; the "membership" in the list is governed by the number of episodes the series has. Simple as that. ···日本穣? · 投稿 · Talk to Nihonjoe · Join WP Japan! 07:04, 24 March 2012 (UTC)

Hunter x Hunter

Why are the three Hunter x Hunter OVAs counted as one since others have separate entries for sequel series (Naruto, Galactic Heroes)? --Mika1h (talk) 23:26, 8 September 2012 (UTC)

The usefulness of this list

What is the purpose of separating franchises by series? It seems completely counter-intuitive and not very useful. For example, if you wanted to know what animes had a large number of episodes, you would expect the list to include ALL episodes for each anime. Why else would you view this page? At the very least, this should link to another page that actually includes this useful information... Doomsday31415 (talk) 03:17, 2 November 2012 (UTC)

I agree, the list should be according to franchise not series or seasons. There is too much confusion what is considered a separate series. For example Hunter x Hunter OVAs and Gintama TV series' are counted as one but Naruto and Pokemon are listed as separate. --Mika1h (talk) 10:10, 16 December 2012 (UTC)

Reduce the number of series displayed to make it more manageable

As suggested Here. Why:

  • Shorter list would make it easier to maintain it.
  • It would be more accurate and up-to-date.
  • Will eliminate any disputable series that's listed here.

Hei Liebrecht 09:44, 9 December 2013 (UTC)

I agree that a shorter list would be better to handle. But, how shorter? The top 50 suggested by DragonZero or do you have any other suggestion? Gabriel Yuji (talk) 04:26, 23 July 2014 (UTC)
There is 160 entries for TV series. This could be shortened by counting only shows with over 200 or more episodes, thus cutting the list entries to mere 50-60 (counting Ongoing shows). Hei Liebrecht 04:35, 23 July 2014 (UTC)
It's okay to raise the minimum to 200. However, it would be good to note in the prose of any series below 200 episodes that set some sort of record for number of episodes, well, before Sazae blew it out of the water. -AngusWOOF (talk) 16:49, 23 July 2014 (UTC)
With the general television episode count at 150, I'm rethinking this isn't necessary to trim more than that. -AngusWOOF (talk) 01:12, 24 July 2014 (UTC)
With just 160 entries and a fairly simple table, what specifically makes the list "hard to maintain". Most of the entries aren't going to change as they are no longer in production (only 15 entries are still active)? —Farix (t | c) 18:27, 23 July 2014 (UTC)
You didn't read the archived discussion, or you would see that I made this proposal especially because this list isn't very accurate, and thus not up-to-date. I used MyAnimeList's advance search option that time and found many shows that are missing in this list (not including Ongoing series). Note: MAL's advance search feature is currently having problems. Hei Liebrecht 23:33, 23 July 2014 (UTC)
Ugh, why are we using MAL when it's on the WP:ANIME/RS as not reliable? They also do weird things like count omake chapters/episodes as full ones. -AngusWOOF (talk) 01:12, 24 July 2014 (UTC)
So the list isn't "hard to maintain" because it is "too long". It is more a matter that no one is maintaining it in the first place. Reducing the number of entries on the list isn't going to fix that problem. —Farix (t | c) 11:11, 24 July 2014 (UTC)
P.S The only thing I saw that would make the list difficult to maintain was the "rankings" column, which I just removed. Not only would the column need to be updated when new entries are added, but they were often inaccurate to begin with. Specifically when there were multiple series that had the exact same episode count. —Farix (t | c) 11:59, 24 July 2014 (UTC)
  • No reason to remove valid information from a list just because its long. Even if you reduced the list in size, it doesn't mean anyone is going to go through and update the episode numbers if they aren't doing it now. Most of the things on the list aren't in production anymore, so the episode count isn't going to need updating anyway. Dream Focus 00:01, 24 July 2014 (UTC)
As with List of television programs by episode count, I suggest adding start and end date columns, where current series can have the green shaded "present (as of 2014-07-24)". Also a reference column to the resource that shows the current count and/or footnotes to the calculation would be useful. -AngusWOOF (talk) 16:03, 24 July 2014 (UTC)
I was thinking starting and ending dates would be useful, but I don't support a separate column for just references/footnotes. —Farix (t | c) 18:09, 24 July 2014 (UTC)
That's true, it doesn't need the separate column, as that would require all episode counts to be referenced on that page instead of letting it just be the number with optional footnotes where it needs further explanation beyond what the article link would provide. -AngusWOOF (talk) 18:31, 24 July 2014 (UTC)

A good idea that went wrong

this was a good idea that went wrong; turning into a list of every anime on the planet. It also excluded anime with major significance (sailor moon mainly) under the sole reason of not liking sailor moon. Shows with multiple titles/seasons were often mistakenly labled as seperate shows (of which teh origional author's reasoning was quite laughable). THere was also no format determining which shows made the list and which didn't. All this resulted in people adding random shows that do not matter/removing shows that matter and adding overall incorrect information.

To correct his, i have reformatted the list. By merging shows with multiple seasons (expanding an origional storyline), removing shows that do not make the ANN top 500 in some way shape or form, and limiting the episode count to 48 (a regular anime season in japan) i hope to have corrected any problems with this article. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 72.38.50.42 (talk • contribs) 05:01, 1 February 2015

I also question whether Tenchi Muyo! should be on the list as it is actually three separate OVA series combines into one. ···日本穣? · 投稿 · Talk to Nihonjoe · Join WP Japan! 06:20, 5 February 2015 (UTC)
I reverted it back to the new format. We do not need it broken into weird sections of arbitrary length as they don't help in any way. Also, we don't need to have it as long as it was. ···日本穣? · 投稿 · Talk to Nihonjoe · Join WP Japan! 05:43, 24 February 2015 (UTC)

Pokémon

Pokémon should be higher in the list. I know they passed 17 seasons so far. The separate regions are considered different series but they have the same basic cast and everything. 208.167.254.242 (talk) 17:06, 4 October 2015 (UTC)
