This infobox is constructed by sandwiching one or more components between a header and footer. For consistency, it is recommended that components be sorted by release date.
Unless otherwise noted, fields should reflect original Japanese dates and editions, as multiple countries/languages lead to clutter.
For consistency, the infobox should remain within the scope of its host article. If, for example, separate pages exist for an anime and its associated film, the film component should not appear on the anime page, and vice versa. The "Other" component may be used to provide links to such closely related works. Similarly, if an article's primary topic is not an anime or manga series, and such series do not receive more than an incidental mention, the article should use the infobox designed for the media type of its focus (e.g. articles on novels and novel series should use {{Infobox Book}}, articles on films should use {{Infobox film}}, etc.).
The title parameter in each component is optional, and should be used when the title of the specific anime/manga/etc. differs from the name parameter in the header or (if none is given) the article's title.
Other parameters are documented in the following sections.
This infobox should italicize the article title automatically. If this is not required, add |italic title=no to the list of parameters. If this is required but the title is not being italicized, try |italic title=force.

If the information is available, please specify using WP:NOTES what exactly named contributors are credited for in the official episode/film/series credits (often on the work's official website or in the end credits roll(s) of the work), as there is typically no singular "directed/produced/written by" credit such as in the American film industries, but instead a wider variety of credits for specific writing, direction, and production duties, which are not used uniformly and universally. See Wikipedia:WikiProject Japan/Film credits glossary which includes some credits that may be used.
