Hello,

As the title says I would like to know when to use the... abbreviations?

So far as I know all anime titles start with an episodes and after the end of a story of anime there's an OAV or OVA airing out. I don't know the meaning of OAV, OVA after all the episodes.

Also I want to know why hentai's titles are starting with Vol. 1, 2, 3 not Ep. 1, 2, 3 (sometimes even OVA)? I know Volume is a collection of chapters from manga so why when they release a video it's still called volume not episode? Why authors stick to volumes when they release their videos (I even saw sometimes OVA 1 - Vol. 1?).

Thanks for explaining this to me and probably other people.
 
Well, all both having the same meanings, just the words/letters are differently given...:bored:


OVA: Original Video Animation

Shine, could you update this one later in the day? The sheer amount of bugs are so astounding, it's unplayable. Just the first update alone, already fixed lots of them. The devs said that he'll update it again within the day.
