So, when I sort my completed list by length, there are two weird errors. First, Durarara!! is listed between a 10 episode and 9 episode anime here



and Yondemasu yo, Azazel-san. (TV) is listed in the middle of my 1 episode anime here.



Is this a known error?

This column always displays the correct number of episodes listed on MAL while it is sorted by the actual number that is set in the entries. That an entry is not correctly sorted usually happens when the episode count on MAL is changed for this entry. For example, an anime has 26 episodes and later it is split into 2x13 episodes, then the column shows 13 episodes while in your entry there is still 26 as the number so it is treated like an entry with 26 episodes.

In your case I guess you just made a mistake when you specified the number of episodes. For Durarara!! you have 10 episodes and for Yondemasu you have 1 episode.

For Durarara I assume the mistake happened because of the rewatch. You have probably rewatched 10 episodes and then set it back to completed. Or maybe you did rewatch all 24 episodes but didn't explicitly fill out the episode number field again. And for Yondemasu you just forgot the 3.

Huh! That's pretty interesting. I went ahead and fixed those errors (I did in fact rewatch all of Durarara!!, but apparently forgot to update my list when I did so), and all is well again. Thanks for the information.
