Why hasn&#039;t it updated on MAL?

You think One Piece just finished "Season 1"? Honey, did your memory hole eat the last 25 years of production?

We're sitting on 21 officially numbered seasons right now and Elbaph is Season 22, dropping in April 2026. This glorious pirate saga has been riding longer than your grandma's favorite vibrator and a simple schedule hiccup doesn't make it suddenly shrink back to a rookie debut.

Seriously, you think MAL is going to rewrite its entire, massive database just because you finally learned the word "seasonal" and ran with it like a kid who found his dad's porn stash?

Stop singing that pathetic "Season 1, Season 1" nonsense and open your eyes. Get a grip on reality and understand how a 25 year old series is actually structured.

A little schedule trim doesn't turn it back into a virgin debut, stupid ass idiots.

Because it’s not over, episode 1,156 airs April 5th. It all depends on if they reset the episode count

As far as i know, that always has been used only for cleaner Blu-rays sales, and never mentionned anywhere else, not even on trailers. The Anime was produced (and aired) as one unique season.

The episode count does not matter. Shingeki no Kyojin does not reset its count, for example. One Piece should have been splitted two times already.

The series was on break between October 2024 and April 2025 (it's even in the Background of the entry. Only entry to do that). As per MAL's own rules, if a show is on break for atleast 3 months, the entry will be split with "Part 2" added to it. That's why we have so many shows in multiples parts, as split cours have become common in production. Now, the show goes again on break, and will even return in seasonal format with no more than 26 Episodes a year.

If they don't want to split entries, why do they make these rules ? Either follow it or remove it.

Nothing about that is written in the rules, so they shouldn't. Why would this series be the only one to not be splitted ?
MAL is just inconsistent for the sake of having a popular series not be Completed yet.

@Alexioos95 let’s not forget about all those shows that air episodes and then delay the rest for production reasons. For instance Kimisen Season 2 was delayed by a year after 4 episodes had aired

Oh, indeed; i was not aware of that one. So MAL really just apply rules whenever they want. As per their own words, they split entries to avoid having some in Watching for months for nothing... And somehow, we have unaired Seasons already splitted.

That's just so inconsistent.

@Alexioos95 well no, unaired seasons are different because they’re announced in advanced that they’re going to be split up and the second part is TBD. Besides, not splitting up shows that have already aired but they take time off because of production is very smart because a) you shouldn’t split up shows that needed more production time and b) it would mess up all the entires (especially from 2020 anime) to have so many entires that differ from the official episode counts just because they were forced to take a break.
MAL can’t blindly enforce their own rules especially in situations like this, context and more information needs to be taken into consideration

That's exactly why production committee does split cours, nowadays. That's not for fun that they split their own release schedule into multiples seasonal blocks; they just all need more production time, and they release whatever cour is ready to make money the earlier they can.

ajw215799 said:

Which official counts ? MAL follows the Japanese TV broadcast, which does not differentiates the different Parts of a show, so it already differs from what MAL's database has. Same if we go by the Blu-rays, and that's also why Specials, which are official episodes in Blu-rays, have their own entries. Series that has multiple official Seasons also often do not reset their official episode count. By that standard, isn't splitting entries in Seasons already differs from their count ?

Personnally, i don't mind that MAL splits entries or not, but i find it annoying that they are this extremely inconsistent for no reason, when the reasonning for implementing this rule does make sense for users.

Honestly splitting anime in different entries is so needless, not only for One Piece, but also for different seasons, parts etc. What if I wanna check how many anime I've seen, it says 350+ or something, but actually I've seen about 100 series?

Imagine a person that just now starts to watch anime. This could get very confusing.
-One piece? 1156 episodes? But my friend says that it is still ongoing, why is it listed as "Finished" in this site?

-Demon Slayer? 24 episodes? Finished? Why do I see people waiting for new episodes/movies?

-Spy x Family Part 2 and Season 2? Which one comes first? And there is also a separate entry called simply "Spy x Family"?? What are all these???

I believe this system mostly confuses people rather than meeting our anime-cataloguing needs. A better system would be to implement seasons in a certain batch for each series, something like this:

Completed (Blue) My hero academia
- Season 1 Complete
- Season 2 complete
- Season 3 Watching (16/25)
Etc etc etc etc

I realise that this is a lot to ask and that it may require an entire overhaul of the Myanimelist code or something, also people don't really like change and us anime fans have a habit of wanting to display our precious "completed entries" to compare with others, but I hope that this fix gets implemented somehow in the future.

Wake up to reality!

Personally, I agree with MAL keeping it one season. Having 1155 episodes in s1 and 13 episodes in every subsequent season would just feel weird. It should be either one big season, or small seasons for each arc. I'd love every arc having their own season so I could rate them individually😛

Cause it's still the same anime, it's just changing to a seasonal format. One Piece has changed schedules before in the past as well. Why is everyone so obsessed with this being the end of "season 1" and the start of "season 2", it's so dumb.

Long running anime doesn't have seasons tho lol..

A season of a show means it comes out seasonaly. It should be once a year but some shows take multiple years.

A show that pumps up weekly episodes for decades doesn't have seasons by definition of the word.

@GTRaijin I understand what you're saying, still as a westerner myself, I would prefer my list to not pay any attention to the release format of studios and producers in Japan and incorporate all seasons as a single entry. But that's just me, maybe some other people prefer the list the way it is now and honestly that's ok, I don't have a problem with it or the list. However, I'd love it of they implemented a feature in the future to count the individual series/movies watched.

Edit: I do not have any coding experience so I don't know how easy it would be for a list to do this:
"So a new season aired? Let's edit the previous entry and change it from 12 to 24 episodes and change its status to ongoing from completed"

@Soumodip_wraf That's exactly what makes it a new season. The good thing about anime is that they have fixed endings in the middle of the story and then transition to a new season. That way you can rate seasons differently. It sucks when the anime is treated like a manga that never ends.

There should be a special rule that if an anime lasts longer than five years it has to be split off into a next season no matter what.

Actually, its popularity is waning if you only look at the latest episodes. That's why it's going seasonal. If that doesn't fix the ratings I can even see One Piece being canceled. Which would be amazing in its own way. Actually, seeing One Piece get canceled due to low ratings would be very interesting.

One Piece probably gets special treatment for popularity, and it would really shake things up seperating into a new entry calling into question how its popularity remains.

Actually, its popularity is waning if you only look at the latest episodes. That's why it's going seasonal. If that doesn't fix the ratings I can even see One Piece being canceled. Which would be amazing in its own way. Actually, seeing One Piece get canceled due to low ratings would be very interesting.

someone has to be literally stupid to even imagine one piece would get cancelled 😂, its toei's biggest IP after dragon ball

You think One Piece just finished "Season 1"? Honey, did your memory hole eat the last 25 years of production?

We're sitting on 21 officially numbered seasons right now and Elbaph is Season 22, dropping in April 2026. This glorious pirate saga has been riding longer than your grandma's favorite vibrator and a simple schedule hiccup doesn't make it suddenly shrink back to a rookie debut.

Seriously, you think MAL is going to rewrite its entire, massive database just because you finally learned the word "seasonal" and ran with it like a kid who found his dad's porn stash?

Stop singing that pathetic "Season 1, Season 1" nonsense and open your eyes. Get a grip on reality and understand how a 25 year old series is actually structured.

A little schedule trim doesn't turn it back into a virgin debut, stupid ass idiots.

Edit:

Long running anime doesn't have seasons tho lol..

A season of a show means it comes out seasonaly. It should be once a year but some shows take multiple years.

A show that pumps up weekly episodes for decades doesn't have seasons by definition of the word.

Well guess what it does have seasons 🤓, you are just one google search away to discover this

I don't care what wikipedia says

Seasonal anime have seasons: Dr. Stone, AoT, Jujutsu etc.

Long running anime like OP, Naruto and Bleach (except tybw) have no seasons.

It doesn't in broadcast and production, where the Anime is treated as only one very long Season, yeah. They officially do split the series into small Seasons for Blu-ray, tho.

Naruto does not have Seasons (well, outside of OG and Shippuuden). It's just that foreign licensors splits these long series, because it's too weird for the West to say a series of 200+ Episodes has no Season. That always has been the case, for all long Animes, but officially, in Japan, they are not.

Edit : Foreign licensors generally splits "Seasons" per year of broadcast.
