Seriously, MAL, why? Mod Edit: Modified title for clarity and/or easier searching. |

| it might be a work in progress, the profile thing on the top right side is like that too |
| Maybe they should make a new tab for that? |
| But they did. http://myanimelist.net/anime/21/One_Piece/episode |

| Oh god. Please do put this on the very bottom below the recent discussion section or even better, below the subbers. Its a list of episodes, literally the title of episodes, we don't need that crap on the top. Or better yet, keep it only in the tab. |
Akarin said: Yeah, I'd like that. It looks too clustered there.Maybe they should make a new tab for that? I like the new change. Mainly b/c I'm too lazy to search wiki for episode details. |

vodall said: Akarin said: Maybe they should make a new tab for that? There is a tab for it, but in my opinion, it should be collapsed by default You're right. Then there's no need in this info on main tab. It increases page's height, and makes it harder to find related entries and characters & staff. |
| lol devs should stop putting out these half finished site updates so people can stop being like "omg MAL so stupid and broken look at this shit" |

Syrup- said: lol devs should stop putting out these half finished site updates so people can stop being like "omg MAL so stupid and broken look at this shit" Maybe they do so to look at people's reaction and make the further changes based on it. (At least I hope so) |
vodall said: Is anyone even benefitting from this change? Unless the data is fetched with some sort of script, this looks to only be more unnecessary work on the database moderators. from quick glance a lot of the sources i see is from Wikipedia though, they can definitely automate the process of getting the infos from there, so no need for the database moderators to do anything |
vodall said: Those who would want to see the episode details on MAL. And they're probably getting them from ANN. Users are probably able to help too. Is anyone even benefitting from this change?

| the devs might be using this technique to automate the process of getting infos from other sites http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Web_scraping |
| Other sites scrape from mal and now mal scrapes from ANN. Not too keen on that, but eh. |
|
| I agree to keeping it in another tab just to keep things looking a little neater, but I think it's great and not unnecessary. It saves me the trouble of trying to find the info on other sites. I was going to push a suggestion for this or see if anyone else suggested it so I could push their suggestion, but now that it's here I'm super pleased. Assuming that the synopsis part won't go unused, I'm going to use the hell out of this feature, because sometimes if I watched many episodes elsewhere (like a friend's house) I just don't remember where the heck I left off until I figure out what happened in an episode-- especially if they decided to skip around and watch out of order. MAL is starting to become everything I need. Praise. |
| I don't really need that change, but I don't mind as long as it doesn't stay on top (or make it somewhat hidden..). |
| This doesn't bother me as much as the fact the devs are giving us useless updates when they could actually be improving MAL. |
   I envy your delusion; I wish I could live in it  |
ooooooooooooooooooooo i didn't know MAL did cool stuff like that |
 |
| I wish it would just be put as its own tab tbh. |
 |
| I don't mind, its cool. |
 Look alive sunshine! The future is bulletproof The aftermath is secondary Its time to do it now and do it loud Killjoys! Make some noise! |
YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY FREE SPOILER!!!!!111 Unnecessary. Very unnecessary. At least put it to show just in the fucking "episode" page, not in the main page! Now I want to see them giving names for every episode in the database. We have more than 9 thousand anime, how much episodes there are? |

| Current presentation seems to be a temporary one, but I like the fact that MAL is going to include episode data from now on. By the way, I encountered a possible bug: http://myanimelist.net/anime/22297/Fate%2Fstay_night%3A_Unlimited_Blade_Works_%28TV%29/episode (Gives 404 error, probably because of the "/" in the title.) http://myanimelist.net/anime/22297/_/episode (This one works.) |

Grusomhed said: Jesus Christ, that's totally not funny. Why not make a new tab for that? They did, the "episode tab". But they're not happy desu. They want, very much, to give us free spoiler in unnecessary info. |
| It's ugly and needs to be gone |
 |
Ins said: Report MAL for not use spoiler tag. They should add a like system in the forum so I can like your post. It's more necessary than episode name, at least... |
| I think they should add the episode discussion in their particular page. |
| its highly possible that is a work in progress people, the developers might remove that on the front page since they already have a tab for the episodes info anyway, its possible that the episodes info shown in the front page is just temporary and for them to debug the web code/programming easily |
| Hope they link to Discussion. Also to legit streaming sites. |

| added the fourth most popular anime onto this site |
| Another question is, why the hell are all these changes made on a live site instead of test page? It's pretty annoying to have some bits and pieces of crap randomly appear here and there without any explanation. |
Ii tenki desu ne... |

| OMG THAT LOOKS FUGLY, KEEP THAT IN A FUCKING SEPARATE TAB, THEY DON'T HAVE EVERY FUCKING TAB ON THE ANIME's FRONT PAGE DO THEY? AND REDUCE THE AMOUNT OF EPISODES LISTED ON THE FUCKING ANIME INFO PAGE I DON'T FUCKING NEED TO SEE A SERIES FIRST FIVE EPISODES, I'D RATHER HAVE QUICK ACCES TO THE FUCKING STAFF, LIKE IT USED TO FUCKING BE BEFORE, AT LEAST MOVE THIS SHIT DOWN WHERE NO ONE CARES ABOUT IT EDIT: THANK GOD ADBLOCK EXISTS |

| It's awesome thing... if it is fully moved into separate tab. As a side note, everyone is crying about "unnecessary info", but for me it's much more interesting than "Staff" section, which also could be just left in separate tab without wasting space. But from what I see "Details" tab has info from all the tabs together, so I don't think they'd cut something from it :/ |
| Keep it as just a separate tab. |

| I wish they gave this a tab on the page instead of having it on the main page, it looks so cluttered and ugly |

Although it's stopped being accessible when the owners changed, maybe they simply changed the URL since the old one got leaked, even if only to few users rpn101 said: I wish they gave this a tab on the page instead of having it on the main page, it looks so cluttered and ugly Oiacz said: They did, the "episode tab". j0x said: its highly possible that is a work in progress people, the developers might remove that on the front page since they already have a tab for the episodes info anyway, its possible that the episodes info shown in the front page is just temporary and for them to debug the web code/programming easily Not sure about that, I'm actually afraid it's permanent |

| spoilers right beneath the synopsis, awesome stuff. looking forward to what's next. |
| the official MAL hall of fame/cursed comments is now open for business - you are welcome to PM me any potential quotes to include |
| My opinions: - should only be in new tab (otherwise, it makes the page even longer) - instead of showing "0" as unknown/airing, they should just show the most recently aired ep number with a colored + sign beside it - the bullet marks look odd |
| Just keep it as a separate tab |
 |
| They should just have it in another tab, some episode titles even have spoilers in them... |
