I am confused by some things. First,The encyclopedia here says there are 52 episodes of Gist Sac 1st Gig. So why can't I find any episodes after episode 26?

Two, again the encylopedia says that there are 26 episodes of Heat Guy J. So how come I can't find any episodes after episode 13?

i'm a bit new to this site, so I don't claim that this answer is right, only a speculation. But I assume that they know of 52 eps and only have the summaries and titles for 26.

Again, i'm new so I wouldn't really know, but I think you'd get many more responses if you had this topic in the forum "Encyclopedia"

By "find" do you mean "download"?

Anyway, the second season of GitS has yet to be made. However, both series are licened, so you shouldn't be downloading them anyway, if that is indeed what you mean by "find."

anime#910

That is the series page; both seasons (which belong to the same show) are included as a single TV series, because in effect that is what it is.

As you'll notice, Ranma 1/2 is two separate shows (Ranma 1/2 and Ranma 1/2 Nettohen) but we've combined them into a single page as well:
anime#64

We do this because it would be MORE confusing to list them separately. Instead, we list them as seasons, because that is what they are.

Because it was licensed and is being sold by Geneon Entertainment. Buy the DVDs.

Well obviously by now your GITS question was answered. I posted the same question earlier last month.

As for your Heat Guy J question I assume your talking fansubs. Yes I've only found about 13 eps as well . But sometimes the translating crew that originally work on projects will suddenly stop altogether based on companies taking licensing deals or they personally have no more time for the responsibilty.

Who knows maybe there are more out there. But from what I hear Heat Guy J is due to hit MTV soon.

I think I understand now. Episodes 27-52 are Gist Sac 2nd gig. Heat Guy J was licensed but they haven't release vol.5 (episodes beyond 13) yet so I have to wait. Is this correct?
