# Add BD version as C ep., and use the BD date as the C ep date since that's when the BD version video first airs.
# Create an S ep for the black screen credit role, with air date of ep 1 air date. Call it "Episode 1 TV Ending" or something. Ordinarily as a black screen ED, it would fail rule 3 blocking it from C ep, so it can only be an S ep.

The TV version had a black screen with a credits roll, the BD version had a proper ending animation – so far so good, only add a C ep for the latter. However, they also bundled the credited original ep 1 staff roll as a bonus feature on the Blu-rays for whatever reason; the unusual decision there was to add the files of that mixed in with the BD ED1 files and have them share the same C ep (with also ep 1's air date, it seems). I don't know if this was actually that good of an idea, they should probably be separate, though I don't know if the plain credit roll would be a S ep either.


Applying rule 4.1, this is a C ep.

=Archived former guidance at Content:Episodes=
{{CollapseBlock|This is an archive of the former guidance at [[Content:Episodes]].|content=
{{eyecatch|Note|C episode guidance:<br>
Do '''NOT''' add a separate episode for creditless openings/endings. Set the creditless flag in the video track of the '''file''' instead. We don't want creditless and non-creditless as separate episode entries.<br>
The '''ONLY VALID''' naming template is Opening (1,2,...,n), Ending (1,2,...,n). In case if the same song is used with a significantly different video or the same video is used with a different song, append letters after the numbers e.g. Opening 1a, Opening 1b. For foreign OP/ED episodes, if they differ from the original Japanese versions, append the country name before Opening (1,2,...,n), Ending (1,2,...,n).<br>
PVs (music video for the song) go under Other episodes, but only if they were released as part of the anime DVD/BD.<br>
"Long/full" versions of the OP or ED should be added under Special episode unless they were actually used within a regular episode.<br>
If the OP/ED song is played and credits are shown, but the video is still that of the regular episode, then it's NOT an OP/ED episode (rather common in last episodes as sort of an epilogue).<br>
OP/ED episode's display name will be automatically changed to the song played in that OP/ED if the song has the appropriate OP/ED episode number relation added. It will also automatically display the episode range the OP/ED is played in if the song has those episode ranges added.<br>
OP/ED episodes, like any other episode, should have the air date, which would be the air date of the episode they were first played in.}}
