| 開始日時 || Date and time when the episode starts || Given in the "year-month-day hour:minute" format. As explained in several articles in this wiki, Japan is a funny country that has strange hours such as 26:00; if you see, for example, a slot allocated for 2nd of August, 26:00, it's actually 3rd of August, 02:00.
| 開始日時 || Slot date/time || The date/hour the time slot time begins, given in the "year-month-day(weekday) hour:minute" format. As explained in several articles in this wiki, Japan is a funny country that has strange hours such as 26:00; if you see, for example, a slot allocated for 2nd of August, 26:00, it's actually 3rd of August, 02:00. The weekday is given in abbreviated form as a single kanji and is irrelevant for AniDB.

| 分 || Scheduled time slot || Given in minutes. That time also counts commercial breaks; a 30 minute schedule generally means a ~25 minute episode, not a 30 minute one.
| 分 || Slot duration || Duration of the TV slot given in minutes. That time also accounts for commercial breaks; a 30-minute slot generally means a [[Content:Episodes#Play_Length | (post-rounding)]] 25-minute episode, not a 30-minute one.

| 回数 || Episode number || If it's empty, it generally means the anime's producers decided that episode is a special that goes outside the regular count. Those are filed as S specials in AniDB, unless the mods say otherwise.

Flags show their tooltips when you hover your mouse pointer over them. Here's a bit of an incomplete explanation of a few (all? most? some?) of them. There should be a pic for each flag but I'm not really inclined to do that job at this moment.
Flags show their tooltips when you hover your mouse pointer over them. Here's a less-than-complete explanation of hopefully all of them. There should be a pic for each flag; feel free to add those pics.
