That might be but the josei definition describes it perfectly...

Demographic tags are determined by magazines. While there may be recurring themes for demographics (ie; josei/seinen having older protags), this isn't always the case and the lines can get blurry (ie; Black Butler runs in a shounen mag). So MAL sticks to magazine dems. These don't function like genres, where there's a set criteria.

Thanks. This makes a lot more sense.

Sometimes mods will apply demographic tags even without them belonging to a magazine with a demographic, it really depends on the mod and your argument.

That's true too, but it seems reserved for series with "obvious" demographics. For example, Pretty Cure and Aikatsu air during the day and are targeted at young girls. They appeal greatly to some adult male otaku, but there isn't a doubt that its primary dem is kids.

Late night anime is more difficult to gauge, as it technically borrows from all dems but is hoping for the older teen/adult's cash. Makura no Danshi falls into this category and, compounding the issue, has love interests ranging from high schoolers to working adults (plus that 5 year old I guess...). That's why I'd hesitate to call it either unless the production company says "we're aiming it at females from xx age to xx age".

This doesn't have any "martial arts" or "adventure" whatsoever, and not nearly enough of drama to fit the MAL genre guidelines, and these three tags should be removed.

http://myanimelist.net/anime/20671/Shashinkan
This needs a "slice of life" tag, because it depicts scenes of daily life of people in the early 20th century.

http://myanimelist.net/anime/30585/Taifuu_no_Noruda
This need a "sci-fi" tag, it features alien spaceships and a terraforming device.

http://myanimelist.net/anime/2420/Spirit_of_Wonder:_Shounen_Kagaku_Club
http://myanimelist.net/anime/6245/Spirit_of_Wonder:_China-san_Tanpenshuu
All of these need a "seinen" tag, they are based on a manga, which was serialized in seinen magazines, as can be seen on mangaupdates and wikipedia.
Kagaku Club also needs a "space" tag, its main plot is early space exploration, amounts of which are similar to the Honneamise movie. If the latter has a space tag, Kagaku Club should have it too.

Hello! I have an petition for this anime
http://myanimelist.net/anime.php?id=12487
and its sequel.

I have watched the first season and I already started watching the second one and I have seen in the ´´Information`` section that it it doesnt show every genre of it. It is only rated as Action and Fantasy, but its has a very dense script and I think it shoould be rated as Military, Mecha, Comedy, Sci-Fi, Shounen, Super Power and Supernatural too. In the very end it should be rated at least as Military as it clearly has politics, conflicts between States and a vast cast of characters in it. It is also epic, but I dont know if this last detail counts in something ... In all, it has every characteristcs of the genres represented above actually.

Something needs to be worked out with the new Fist of the North Star comedies. MAL currently has an article for Hokuto no Ken: Ichigo Aji (http://myanimelist.net/anime/31018) and DD Hokuto no Ken 2 Ichigo Aji+ (http://myanimelist.net/anime/31474/)

But DD Hokuto no Ken 2 Ichigo Aji+ encompasses both Ichigo Aji and DD Hokuto no Ken; it's a double feature program. I'm not sure if this means episodes will contain content from both or if the two will be separate series in a block, but we should know soon enough.

Also, Hokuto no Ken: Ichigo Aji should have "Fist of the North Star: Strawberry Flavored" as an alt title.

Change http://myanimelist.net/anime/24765/Gakkougurashi! and http://myanimelist.net/manga/55163/Gakkougurashi! back to Gakkou Gurashi.

The English title has no influence in it, at all, or at least shouldn't have.
And this has been argued time and time again, unless the mods randomly feel it (I know, I know...) MAL is going to romanize titles their way, you can argue they are wrong but officials titles shouldn't have influence over the title on MAL, keyword being shouldn't, they do sometimes, if the mods aren't stubborn and also feel like it.

Shinseiki Evangelion is labeled as Neon Genesis Evangelion on MAL because of its use in the logo and episode transitions. Despite being referred to as Shinseiki in almost all forms of the media.

If it's present in the official Japanese website I would think this should have some influence on it. It was not simply chosen by western licensors.

That's an exception (there are many others, I know), not the rule (there's no rule either though).

I actually didn't realize the image you posted was from the official site, those usually go in the English title field, by the way, and I still find mixing elements of the English title with ones from the Japanese kinda silly of an idea (thinking about it, the fact that the "-" is there only implies further that it is indeed one word but since there's no single word in English for that they used the "-" to connect the words), and it's still the same idea as the official romanization, MAL isn't going to use the English title just because it's on the official website now.

You should either rewrite or re-read the genre definition given by MAL because this stuff isn't making sense or maybe you could explain your decisions.

Same also goes for the guidelines:

Kineta said:
The first release of an anime is the most important one, as long as the majority of it was released that way. For example, if only the first episode was pre-aired online and the rest is released on TV, that would make the entry a TV series and not an ONA.


And that's the case here, it also doesn't say anything about "method of release".
The Monster Musume ONA specials are similar as they're released on YouTube for a single day but those aren't listed as Special.

Also I mentioned the Overlord side story episodes in comment #8844 which should be listed as TV series according to the guidelines.

These genre definitions were written over ten years ago. They need to be updated, and maybe a flexible genre tagging system introduced. So that the process would be more constructive/efficient.

>The Monster Musume ONA specials
>Umaru-chanS
afaik, a limited screening of these Umaru-chanS shorts (and any other episodes in general) is not counted as the most important one to determine the type of the entry. In case of Monster Musume shorts, they are not included on the DVD releases? That's why they are marked as ONA. Otherwise it would also be a Special.

>Overlord side story episodes
There is a difference between TV series and TV specials. The latter are still marked as Specials.
