These two entries need moving to the "novel" category:
- A Certain Magical Index vol.7
- The Irregular at Magic High School vol.2

As for The Celebration of Haruhi Suzumiya, it might take a little while in order to consider whether the Encyclopedia should put Kyōen (競演), Shukusai (祝祭), and Kenran (絢爛) into three independent entries or just one. Personally I'd prefer separate entries, but before doing so other opinions are welcomed.

I think my original leaning was anthology, but after wading through the entry-vomit that Higurashi has become with all the arcs split, my feelings have soured quite a bit. There is also some precedent with AoT Lost Girls being a single entry (likely others, just happens to be the one I ran across earlier.)

Speaking of AoT Lost Girls, it needs to be moved down to regular novels.
D-Frag! vol. 9 needs the exclamation mark at the end of the name, so it will sort correctly.
EDIT: and Akame ga Kill - Collector's Edition 1 needs to be moved to BD+DVD.

(And thanks to whomever cleaned-up the last big set.)

So I have a question. Wouldn't it be better if the Death Note - Another Note novel was its own separate entry from the manga?
It was written by NISIOISIN and translated by Andrew Cunningham (as described on Amazon).

That novel pre-dates the point where were started adding more novels and light novels (and there is also a novel for L Change the World.
While I am not personally again it per se, the main criteria for adding novels is that there are anime and manga that depend from them, which is not the case for a one-shot spinoff like this.

Death Note standard BD needs to be moved to Region A, to match the Omega/Limited edition.
Buddy Complex and Etotama CE 1 need changing to BD+DVD.

Both those combos are sub-only so I've had to apply the old "+DVD" kludge.

Yeah, that looks super-kludgey (go ahead, take away the "y" one.more.time. autocomplete....) on the collector's edition. They still both need their type/category changed to match the name, though.

No-Rin, Ga-Rei-Zero SAVE, and Tokyo ESP Limited and Standard all need changing to BD+DVD as well.

The new ones are all done, I believe.

These need moving to the novel section:
Overlord, vol.1
My Youth Romantic Comedy Is Wrong as I Expected, vol.1
No Game No Life, vol.6
And on the subject, does ANN plan to add "novel" and "e-book" options anytime soon? I mean, it would save whoever has to move these releases the trouble...

With the shoehorn taken upside Buddy Complex and Etotama to give them Sub.BD+DVD looking appearance on the volume labels, they are still in the BD(A) or DVD categories. Could still use being moved to the BD+DVD category, even if not Sub-only.

I think being clear that they are sub-only is more important. This technique worked well enough before there was an official BD+DVD category, but since there are no sub-formats for that, this is the workaround I use.


@Double Mangekyo: Done.
I have to laugh at Amazon's attribution for My Youth Romantic Comedy Is Wrong as I Expected:

I don't really get what you mean there... Anyway,
Strike the Blood, vol.2 needs moving to novels with the new title "Strike the Blood - From the Warlord's Empire".
The third novel could use some moving, too. Amazon UK has it with the subtitle "The Amphisbaena"

The author/artist description of the book is "this is the author/artist of THIS BOOK". Kinda obvious considering that you're looking at the info for that book.
