It's almost time for the Fall season previews, have you ever thought about linking to promos/trailers of the shows as part of the preview? Between official sites and youtube videos there are usually one or two available at review time. It'd be really nice to see a bit of a reference to the show apart from screencaps.

That or make it a different feature. I like the separate announcements of trailers in the news feed but it'd also be nice if there were a place where promotional videos were collected.

I like the idea of this. Even if it's just a page linked to off of the "[Insert Season Here] Preview", that has a list of trailers to watch.

interesting (and good) idea.

I think maybe we can work it into this:

animenewsnetwork.com/encyclopedia/anime/upcoming/tv

We'd need to create an encyclopedia field for trailers not hosted by ANN. The problem here is that we can't link to unofficially posted trailers on YouTube and such, so it may have to be a staff-only field (because the public will link to illegitimate trailers).

I've shown this to Dan. Unfortunately he is super busy so I wouldn't expect it this season. Perhaps I'll ask the news team to create a trailer list for now.

You can just link to where the trailers are posted officially. Nearly all shows will stream the trailers on their own JP sites, or maybe on Nico Nico Douga or something.
