← view full thread · [Spoilers] Tower of God Season 2 - Episode 14 Discussion
i want to know why this cour of the anime is showing up as a separate entry on other sites like myanimelist but is still a single entry on anilist.
i'm assuming that, despite being 2 cours, there's no delay in the release schedule. the 1st episode of the 2nd cour was released exactly a week after the 1st cour's final episode, so it may be easier to just consider them as part of the same release.
I feel like even the episodes are structured and presented a 2 cour season. Idk if it’s crunchy roll or someone else but they really dropped the ball with this season’s release aside from the bad adaptation.
In my opinion they should’ve separated these arcs solely because they can take a break for a season or so and actually deliver a good product. But it seems like the producers just want to get rid of this IP off their hands.
Quoting Alexioos95 from a MyAnimeList thread:
The previous entry and that one are marketed as different parts (thus the subtitles) despite being of the same Season, which warrants a new entry as per the guidelines of MAL.
So you can blame the studio/publisher/producer or whoever was in charge of marketing for that.
AniList probably has its own guidelines for those things instead of relying entirely on what they claim.
And the "subtitles" being referred to are those:
- Tower of God Season 2: Return of the Prince
- Tower of God Season 2: Workshop Battle
i think anilist prioritizes the production over the marketing. since these two cours are a single continuous production with no break they consider it to just be a single anime despite the marketing advertising them as separate.
i might be wrong but i seem to remember this being the explanation given when stone ocean parts 2 and 3 were being released which is why they're listed together in a single entry instead of separately like they were marketed.
I know that Attack on Titan had so many parts for their season, re:Zero has two parts for season 2, the Reincarned Jobless whatever things had two parts for its season... All of them are properly labelled on Anilist. One should simply try to create the entry or edit this one It will be reviewed. Maybe they are not aware.
Feel free to do that yourself:
https://submission-manual.anilist.coPersonally I agree with their current position of not splitting it.
All of the cases you listed did have a break in between seasons, it was not a "one week interval" like this one, so the splitting was justified at least.
This has pretty much been the take on "split seasons" so far, I literally don't know a single other anime that did not have a break and is split in two seasons.
