Item: Mit Huf und Herz (0x1)
Language: de-DE
Type of Problem: Incorrect_content
Extra Details: Not sure if this is really an error or intentional, but the episode order and season titles for "My little pony: make your mark" deviate from the listings at Netflix. https://www.netflix.com/title/81443471
AFAIK the series was first published on Netflix and so the order should follow theirs. But their "chapter 1" with only one episode is listed as special here. That turns "chapter 2" into season 1. "Chapter 3" again has only one episode and is listed as special. Then the following chapters 4 – 6 seem to follow a more regular pattern, but due to two missing seasons turn into s2 – s4.
I guess the seasons and episodes need to be reordered accordingly.

Sorry! Only after I send in the report, I discovered there were already similar discussions. But still even after reading those, the current listing doesn't seem correct to me.
Now of course I might well be wrong. But the fact that serveral others raised similar reports indicates to me, I'm not completely lost. Maybe overthink the previous answers?
Best regards!

The eOne presentation is here.
Even if Netflix use the same listbox for "Chapters" and "Seasons", that doesn't make them synonyms.

Thank you, your quick reply is much appreciated!
You skipped the first and most important part though. What about your "main goal"? In conflict, is it more important to reproduce the show as it was first aired, or to strictly stick to the semantic rules?
The press release is interesting, but as I've written above it has little to do with the way Netflix published the show.
Please read carefully, I didn't say that.
Of course "chapters" and "seasons" are not generally synonyms! But in this case they are using them that way. The chapters are in the season's list. This is unique as in other shows are presented differently and have propper seasons. Take e.g. "The Chilling Adventures of Sabrina" or "Hilda" which have chapters as episodes and still seasons that are labeled as such. But here the chapters appear to be season titles.

This may be the only one with the term "chapter" at that place, but there are multiple similar cases with the term "Volume".
"The Chilling Adventures of Sabrina" is one of them, where they split the series in "Volumes" which are not aligned with the seasons.
When Netflix use another term than season, we need to search the correct seasons in the other available documentation.

I'm not sure if I should reopen this discussion or make a new one, but I had to talk about this when some friends and I came across this.
When the season alignment disagrees with Netflix, IMDB, and The TV Database. Shouldn't that take precedence over what one random press release says? The TV Database kind of agrees with you about making those episodes a special, but it also places them in their own seasons so it matches up with Netflix.
Besides, having them in this order only confuses people and makes the order of the episodes seem random and unintuitive. First watching the first episode in season 0, then watching though Chapter 2 (which is marked Season 1), then back to Season 0 to watch the episode for "Chapter 3", then finally going back to Chapter 4 (which is marked as Season 2), before watching the series like normal.
It just doesn't make sense and should be corrected.

That's exactly my point. It's a press release which isn't even from the airing network vs. the undoubted publishing order. Actually the official TMDB guidelines seem pretty clear about it. Rule #1 sais: "Our main goal is to reproduce the seasons exactly as they first aired on the original network." The airing order is out of question, so why not stick to it? Unfortunately this was never answered.
