| I disagree mainly because other series have had long ass episodes and those weren't treated as different entries so I don't see why should we make an exception. I can think of one exception and that's long special episodes like the history of trunks and bardock the father of goku but this episode is clearly not the same as those two. |

| It's not fair for other anime. I wouldn't mind if it's like mugen train movie, but the first episode of oshi no ko is called first episode because it's still part of the whole season. If oshi no ko first eps gets its own entry, then every movie lenght episode should get their own entry too. Don't bend a rule out of favoritism. |

lumiere_noir said: dude that thing was a movie releaseed completely differently . This is an episode part of the show . How dumb can you be to ask separate entry ? Well it would be justifying if this was a pre-screening type movie like demon slayer or sometBasically the title, in the past few days I've seen some people bashing each others about how can we give a score/review to an anime that only release one episode so far and while I agree with them in most cases, I really do think that in the case of Osho No Ko this is a disservice because the first episode is pretty much a movie. So, if a movie like "kaguya-sama first kiss" can have its own entry while being pretty much a concatenation of 4 episodes, I really do think that Oshi no Ko should have its own entry also. Hell, the first episode was better than Kaguya-sama movie regarding every movie department, because it felt like a unique and concise story, with a beginning and a conclusion (even that for now is only for the prologue). I really don't like the idea of giving an anime with only one episode a score, but the first episode of Oshi no Ko for me is just that good, so, even though it might get worse in the next episodes, I really wanted to have a place to talk about only about the first episode and give it its proper attention or I will be forced to give a score to anime only based in the first episode (to give it justice), which I feel conflicted about. |

| The only problem with that idea is the fact that MAL would be an outlier by doing that and not in a good way. No Japanese website list the first episode as anything other than the first episode. Not a movie, not a special and not "episode 0". It's considered episode 1. Kaguya-sama First Kiss is considered a movie in Japan, therefore is considered a movie on MAL. MAL is here to accurately catalog stuff, not add its own interpretations that don't match with what the creators had in mind. I wish it was considered a movie or special in Japan, that way just in case the rest of the anime is a turd, it wouldn't run the long first episode...but that's not what they wanted in Japan so that's not what we're going to get on MAL. |

| No. Because that will an absolute mess if it's was own separate entry. It's not marketed as a movie. It was a "special" screening. You know those pre release movie screening that they do sometimes? Yea, that exactly the same thing except it's a special screening of 1st episode for a tv series. No one want separate entry for KnY Ep 1, that's basically the same thing with what they did to Onk. When they announced, they said ep 1 is gonna be 90 min long, not movie. Edit: I forget that KnY special screening have it's own entry, that's fucking dumb. |

They didn't market it as something different. Also technically it's not a prequel. For something to be a prequel it has to come out after the series proper. |

Gui_silva23 said: Demon slayer had the premiere that happened on cinemas separated from the season 3 and season 2, and it's literally just 3 episodes together. Oshi no ko had also a premiere in cinemas with the 1 episode, so it should be separated as well. It's completely different cases. In the case of Kimetsu no Yaiba , it was a complete Movie , marketed as one , but said to contains the "premiere" of the Episode 1 of the 3rd Season. In the case of Oshi no Ko , it's Episode 01. It's how it was marketed , even if it had a way greater lenght than usual. That's all. It did got a pre-screen , just like a huge percent of Animes nowadays. How the works are labelled and marketed is extremely important , especially since the whole database of MAL is based on the professionnal communications. |

| that's like saying Vinland saga's first 4 eps should also have a different entry seeing as it's the prologue to the 1st season |

| Just because you want it to be a separate entry, so it can remain in the top highest rated anime, doesn’t give anyone enough reason to do so. It’s the same anime. As matter of fact it’d be way better if there was only one entry for each anime and not 50 entries per 50 season. |

| No because that's the first episode. |
 |
| If the marketing team advertised it as prologue, it could have it's own entry. But they didn't. The first episode had a special limited release but it was never advertised as a separate movie or special. So it's just an extended first episode. |

Alexioos95 said: This. Let's also not forget that Demon Slayer: To the Swordsmith Village offered extended version of said episode, which differed from the TV version. It did not differ a lot, sure, but still there were differences that could be easily noticed if one was to compare both versions.In the case of Kimetsu no Yaiba , it was a complete Movie , marketed as one , but said to contains the "premiere" of the Episode 1 of the 3rd Season. In "Oshi no Ko" case, though, there were no differences between two versions from what I know. It was just the very first episode dedicated for the upcoming (back then) TV release of the anime. It had special and limited screening in cinemas; and also that happened to be almost 1.5h long (unlike the rest of episodes that're gonna be standard length ones). But it was still the first episode of TV series. salarx said: Aye, good point. I haven't tracked information about "Oshi no Ko" to be fair, not that much at least, but I didn't see any advertisement calling its first episode as a movie or as a special of some sort.If the marketing team advertised it as prologue, it could have it's own entry. But they didn't. The first episode had a special limited release but it was never advertised as a separate movie or special. So it's just an extended first episode. |

Novalty said: I completely agree But its not going to happen tho, certainly not with how much this show is marketted. (even on here) So it will just result in a show having a vastly inflated rating as a result of a movie-tier ''first'' episode. Its a pretty great marketting ploy tbh. Maybe Witch from Mercury should have done the same with its prologue episode. MAXproARYAN said: 2) Gundam wfm has its prolouge as a different ep so onk should deserve the same Yup |
