Okay, pity. I use tmdb ordering and never have had a problem with translated season titles. Must be something up with tvdb and plex pulling that metadata.
Anyhow, hopefully someone from plex can look into it.
I tried the plex dance, still nothing. I even tried manually removing the season name and refetching the metadata, and it fetched the japanese title again. I also tried with other japanese series and they have the same problem.
What I really don’t get is that episode title and description, series description etc is all in english. It’s just the season name that is in japanese.
Season titles are not localized yet. They are always fetched in the original language.
Issue is known, but work for fixing the situation hasn’t been scheduled yet.
I’d like to bump this post as I have had this issue ever since presenting season titles was an option.
I have many anime, and most if not all of them display the Japanese titles for the seasons, yet everything else is in English. I have tried everything suggested in here already and a number of other things but at this point I have to assume it’s a bug.
At first i thought it was an auth issue. English does not appear until you log into a tvdb account. But if were an auth issue I would assume the episode titles would be affected as well. Would really like to see this resolved at some point. It’s a minor thing, not deal breaking just an Aesthetic that I would like rectified.
Okay, thanks. At the very least, I assume this has been reported and will eventually be implemented? Or does a more specific ticket/post need to get published?
