im confussed in how the series works in japan does it keep going with new episodes all year long or does it have a seasons just like in the u.s. if so how many ep. of d/p are they going to show this season

 

[Manene!]

They show episodes all year around except for a few breaks throughout the year. I think it's like 72 episodes a year or something.

I thought that theres just over 40 a year and that and they take their breaks throughout.

40 seems more likely, maybe more.

They show one every week, for most weeks of the year (unlike the US/UK where they show two to four every weekend and thus have to repeat themselves).

 

[Korobooshi Kojiro]

It's been around like 49 for the last few years.

They don't change the name of the season every 52 episode though.

wow i didnt know that cool

 

[Stage On]

yah they get new episodes each week except for rare exceptions where it's preemted for something else or they take a short break like what will happen between Advanced generation and Dimond/Pearl

 

[Akaba]

D/P can probably go on for 3/4 years with maybe a break like with BF, to, you know - not go Johto and stretch it out another year and a half with fillers.

So yeah, expect D/P for 2 or so years and add that with another year long arc like BF.

Or, with Hikari's legends, Haruka's contests and Satoshi's gyms, they may make it long WITHOUT a lot of fillers Johto style.
