I don't see being a sequel a requirement for Seasonal Rot.

The issue is whether or not they are considered part of one show or separate shows in a franchise, like how Star Trek: The Next Generation and Star Trek: Enterprise are separate shows in the Star Trek franchise.

The reason why im against this is that similar installment type franchises like Gundam, Yugioh, and Final Fantasy only talks about Seasonal Rot in their own entries and not the franchise as an overall.

They are clearly different shows? Like, different production teams, casts, characters. Some are Sequel Series (Adventure 02 and Adventure Tri).

The broader question on Seasonal Rot is more a thing for Trope Talk or TRS. My 2 cents is it shouldn't apply to things that are specifically not seasons of one show.

If the issue only applies to Digimon, then we probably don’t need Trope Talk. However if other franchises have similar issues with treating different shows as seasons, then it might be worth considering. Does anyone know of similar examples?

Is there any additional thoughts, or should the examples be removed?

They're not seasons of one show but multiple shows in a franchise, so I agree with removal.

So do we have an example for cases like these in a single season shows? These are legitimate complaints.
