You know an Episode for an Anime that's not listed...

AniDB is a userdriven DB and every user can add new episodes. So if you know an episode for an Anime thats not yet in Anidb we encourage you to add it. We also ask you to include as much info as possible when adding a new episode, it's for all users' benefit.

Where can I add new Episodes?!

At the bottom of every anime entry is a link names "Add Episode". Once you click it you're on the "Add Episode" page. There's a lot of info you can input here.

Basic info you should include when adding an episode

Episode number

Be careful with different episodeorders here. For the moment the japanese "How it was supposed to be shown" order is our standard

Type

Normal Episode
Special/Extra Episode (DVD Specials, Bonus eps)
Opening/Ending/Theme/Credits Episode
Trailer/Promo/Adv Episode
Parody/Fansub Episode
Other Episode (Multi-ep and Split, Supportfiles (AC3 modpacks, fontpacks, subtitles for more than 1 ep) and other things.)

Note:

"Other" is NOT meant for OST's, Manga, AMV's or any other not official Special!
PV's are NOT allowed if they weren't on the DVD (R1, R2) as a special!

Episode Name (English)

Check the official page if it's licensed, if it's not use a translation of the romaji/kanji title.
If you have neither use: "Episode XX" where XX is the number of the episode.

for OVA's (complete ep#=1)
if there is no real ep title (aka when the ep title = anime title) just name the ep OVA
for Movies
See: Movie Guideline

First Aired/Released and Finished Airing/Release

Check the official Japanese(!) page, Japanese TV Guide or other pages listed here.
Be careful with shows that have 24:00 and later air hours - this means that show will air on the night after the specified date.
Example:
Japanese TV schedule says: 01.03.2005 25:30
this means it aired: 02.03.2005 01:30.
