Actors?

How come there is no single mention of anyone who actually brought the characters to life?89.146.135.35 (talk) 20:31, 8 December 2018 (UTC)

Nearly three years late,r and still no cast list. That is standard for any film or TV show. If the current editor can't do something simple, get someone else to do it. 2603:7080:8040:EE00:0:0:0:2 (talk) 03:20, 29 October 2021 (UTC)

"Seasons"

Referring to SAC and Second Gig as the first and second "seasons" seems dubious because ordinarily a "season" is broadcast within one year, and with anime in particular, ordinarily a "season" is 13 episodes. It seems preferable to say that SAC and Second Gig are two separate series, each containing multiple seasons. But is there a reliable source in which SAC and Second Gig are called "seasons"? Using a source for the terminology would be preferable to just changing it based on what I think sounds better. 2607:FEA8:1280:5D00:0:0:0:30F (talk) 00:16, 7 December 2024 (UTC)

:Some sources referring to them as "seasons": [https://www.animenewsnetwork.com/news/2005-08-25/adult-swim-schedule-revision][https://www.animenewsnetwork.com/news/2003-10-31/production-i.g-announces-stand-alone-complex-second-season][https://animeanime.jp/article/2009/04/17/4517.html][https://www.productionig.com/contents/works_sp/02_/][https://www.productionig.com/contents/works_sp/02_/s08_/index.html] Xexerss (talk) 02:06, 7 December 2024 (UTC)

::Thanks. I don't think Anime News Network can be called reliable, but Production I.G. can. Maybe there's a way to work one of those into the article. 2607:FEA8:1280:5D00:0:0:0:30F (talk) 04:57, 7 December 2024 (UTC)

:::It is considered a reliable site by Wikipedia:WikiProject Anime and manga; WP:ANIMENEWSNETWORK. Anyway, I don't know how necessary it really is to include sources to indicate that they are considered seasons. Xexerss (talk) 05:13, 7 December 2024 (UTC)

::::I second this -- "seasons" is the common terminology for the division of serialized television programming. In addition, there are several reliable sources (including ANN) which define the SAC seasons as such. Without a substantial alternate English definition from an authoritative entity that outranks those sources (in this case, it would be the production company itself), the definition should stay as "seasons".
