I still find it perplexing that so many professional establishments use seasons to indicate release times. ie. Summer, Fall, Winter, Spring Why not just use 1st/2nd/3rd/4th Quarter?
It's like still using imperial when metric exists.
PS. Who's waiting on Slime S2? One of the only isekai's to really grab me. I mean I like others, but I really fucking enjoy Slime.
The southern hemisphere are the ones that need to get on the right seasons, that would be the aussies not europoors.

Are you perhaps a fucking retard?

Are you? Please look up what "subjective" means. It isn't, "different in different places".
Andrew Hughes
They do this because it makes sense and only some autists would appreciate the changes. Q1 is january to march while winter is december to february, there would be a lot of confusion during the season they change things and also broadcast issues. There is nothing subjective about japans seasons which is the only thing that matters.
Jeremiah Moore
I dunno, just seems strange to me. Here in Australia, not a single thing that I can remember, is ever denoted as "summer/autumn/winter/spring" as a identifier of release or otherwise. So just other countries using it is strange in the first place. Let alone it just not being relevant as a universal standard.
I feel it would be the same if some random country used migratory terms to signify times of the year, of if they used when the side was in or out to identify times of the day, rather than just the standard of a 24 hour cycle.

So you're just baffled by the idea that Japan has a different culture from you?
Oliver Rivera
Yeah pretty much, those gooks need to fall the fuck in line.
Jacob Watson
Let's be fair, yankland does the same thing, it's just a wilfull ignorance of the world by the northerners. Same as the faggot above who thinks Europe is in the southern hemisphere.
Jason Edwards
I'm waiting on Overlord S4.
Justin Harris
It's not "ignorance" to use terms that aren't globally relevant. Do you act surprised when someone tells you the time without specifying the time zone?
Luis Bell
That doesn't really work as a comparison. Everyone understands that time zone is relevant, thus it's 'globally relevant', which is my entire point.
Thomas Foster
It's exactly the same. Everyone understands that the seasons are different in the southern hemisphere in the same way that the time is different in different time zones.
Robert Fisher
What's so hard to understand about that? Anime is released in Japan, so of fucking course when they say it's going to be released in Spring it means the northern hemisphere Spring.
Lucas Rogers
Obviously, according to some of these replies, plenty of people don't realise that the seasons differ between hemispheres. Admittedly, that's some dumb shit. But i've seen it in literal quizes. I even remember an online game, it had a daily quiz for rewards had "in what season is the Earth closest to the Sun", and the correct answer was a season, literally.
I understand it's an annoyance on the level of people mixing up their use of your/you're, there/their/they're and he's/his. But I still think it's retarded enough that it should be remedied.

Nah, this designation is pretty normal in Europe too, though here we use both. The only context where specifically only Quartals are used is AFAIK medicine and banking while the Winter / Spring / Summer / Fall (or Autumn) designations are used in more of a cultural setting. In Japan "culture" is still very deeply rooted into society, something that people easily forget with all the otaku stuff around.

Charles Flores
Then what about American which has no culture?
Jaxson Martinez
Yet again this is just an implicit assumption of "in the northern hemisphere". It's not that people don't know the southern hemisphere exists or has different seasons, it's just that no one gives a fuck.
Nicholas Flores
Their gung-ho vulgar consumerism cope culture is all over the globe user.
Brandon Bennett
There are no relevant countries in southern hemisphere anyway.
Ian Lopez
seasons have become obsolete with the global warming. i live in the middle of europe where the seasons where exactly as expected when i was a child. last christmas, we had 14 degrees and we had literally 25 snow days over the last 6 years. It's ridiculous.
Dylan Hughes
Just wait for Fiji to invade, you cunt. A whole bunch of Korgs up in that motherfucker.
Ryan Fisher
How should I know, maybe they already used that when they migrated that? Anyway, the Americans are irrelevant in regards to the "seasons" mentioned in Japanese anime.
Julian Wilson
Does anime have oil?
Benjamin Morgan
Northern emisphere is literally the only one that matters or has ever mattered for 99% of human history. Straya cunts or macacos being assblasted about it doesn't change reality.
