Length of page means breaking the content into pieces. This prevents server borking, page crashing, sluggish browsers, and aids in ease of editing.

I get that, I just don't get why it repeats.

Oh, you're referring to the individual character pages for the anime characters being listed on both Characters.Pokemon, and Characters.Pokemon Anime.

...That's a good question.

It looks like it's for organization and indexing. The Fire Emblem character pages are laid out in a similar fashion so you don't booted to the franchise-wide character index when you're just trying to see the character tab for a single game (like Fire Emblem: Awakening).

Speaking of which, I don't remember there being more than 1 page per region on the anime, is were these made to day (and did they have anything to do with the site's temporary going offline)?

I doubt they had anything to do with the server being offline; maintenance or tiny emergency is more likely.
