Would it be possible to get a list like this:

List of 2011 Fall Season TV Anime in Japan


...except for OAVs/Movies/Specials each season? Believe me, I realize these lists require a considerable amount of work, so it would be highly understandable if this sort of thing can't be done each season the way it is for the TV series, but I thought I'd at least mention that I think a fair amount of people would find it very useful.

As that list slowly gets phased out by Anime Spotlight (which is expanding by something like 200% next season) I'd imagine eventually the spotlight will cover OVAs/Movies/Specials/etc.

But to be honest, most of that stuff - OVAs and whatnot - are rarely if ever streamed legally anywhere. Theatrical releases seem particularly irrelevant to list as they're completely inaccessible to most of our readers, and they usually get mentioned as news items anyway (along with OVAs and specials as they get announced).

It's not out of the question, but we're in a bit of a transition right now, but I'll definitely keep it in mind that at least someone would want to see it.

Thanks for the response, Zac. Love that spotlight feature and I'm glad to hear it will be expanded in the future.

Oh man, that's fantastic - I wasn't even aware of that section before. Thanks for the head's up!
