k. just to make sure, unless you have already checked them, that i give the correct info…

the programs available are:
H,T! 01 (plays 01)
H,T! 02 (plays 01)

both have what appear to be correct synopsis, but loading either shows ep 01. so it isnt a case where there are two listings of 01, just both listing contain or open 01. which could mean 01 was sent with 02 title, or InDemand/TWC somehow linked both titles to air 01, and 02 could actually have been sent by TAN and in the system, but just nothing pointing to it to allow it to play.

missing episodes are much more simple, than these freaky errors. :unsure:

[quote=“Slowhand” post=129408]Regarding the incorrect synopsis for “Cluster Edge” and “Persona 4”: These will be fixed as soon as possible, might take a week or two before they catch up with it.

Regarding the incorrect synopsis for “The World God Only Knows”: Still looking into that one. Will get back to me on that.

Regarding the “Demon King Daimao” ‘Teaser’ and “The World God Only Knows” ‘Trailer’: These were just errors on the schedule.[/quote]

RE: Persona 4 episode 13,

I just checked out the listing at iTunes. They show the episode list as “Season 1” with episodes 1-12 and a special “Director’s Cut”

Wikipedia and Anime News Network Encyclopedia, on the other hand, both show a single season of 26 episodes.

So the content provider for iTunes recognizes a season break after episode 12. Maybe something like that is going on here.

Meanwhile ANO shows all 26 episodes available for “Guest” viewing. Does inDemand provide the content for both TAN and ANO?

I also noted that episodes 13 and 14 make up a two part story, “A Stormy Summer Vacation” parts 1 and 2.
Does this mean we may get them both at once, next week?

That takes care of SOTW (SWAG of the Week)

There was a 7-month interregnum between episode 12 and 13. SOME will call that a season break. That’s why some people think Dragon Ball had 7 “seasons” when it was on TV for only 3 years with 153 episodes. Same goes for Dragon Ball Z which has 9 “seasons” despite only being on air for 8 years with 296 episodes.

2345

FAIR WARNING:
Xenoglossia has 26 episodes.

2346

ANN lists the ‘True End’ episode as the 26th episode of Persona 4.

As far as I know, we don’t have the rights for that.

It looks like everything is coming in on a timely fashion. All updates are being received during the early hours of Thursday morning right on time. There is only one current show that is missing, and it seems to be the same one others are having trouble with as well. All things said… things are going very well thus far.

Also, the schedule has been revised starting next week. Thank you for the help getting that fixed. The only thing that seems to remain is the old heading describing TAN on Wave Broadband as a premium service.

RE Persona 4 ep 26: it may have something to do with the way Sentai is releasing the series. Here’s an excerpt from the Wikipedia article on Persona 4.

[quote=“Wikipedia”]The anime has been licensed in North America by Sentai Filmworks for Blu-ray and DVD release during 2012… Sentai released the first collection of the anime on September 18, 2012.[82]

Also, a 90 minute film titled “Persona 4 The Animation -The Factor of Hope-” was released on June 9, 2012 in 10 theaters in Japan. This film is a condensed version of the anime that contains new footage that wasn’t shown earlier. However, unlike the anime, it is edited to include the “true ending episode” that was to be released exclusively on the final volume of the anime’s Blu-ray/DVD.[/quote]

In other words, if you want to see the “true ending episode”, you’ll have to buy the Blu-Ray/DVD.

It’s a “business plan”, sometimes also called “good business” - a polite euphemism for profiteering.

Here’s a link to the complete article (scroll down to the “Anime” section. For some reason the HTML bookmark doesn’t work in the URL): Persona 4, Wikipedia

[b]Also, I just verified that Himawari Too “Episode 2” is actually another copy of Episode 1.

[color=#ff0000]Thus, in addition to Persona 4 ep 13, Himwari Too ep 2 was not received.[/color]
