Which folder should they go in?


So I've got 2 folders "movies" and "tv" - pretty self explanatory, but I'm having trouble some sorting some movies that cross the line into both

For example the Cowboy Bebop movie - should I put it with the anime episodes since it's an extension of that or should I put that into the movies folder with other stand alone titles like Akira and Tekken?

movies that are sequentially tied to a TV series should be kept near the TV series.

In my Plex server Ive got 4 folders

TV
Movies
Anime - TV
Anime - Movies

any anime movies that got along with a tv series (I.e. madoka rebellion) go in the Anime - TV folder along with the rest of the series.

I use Rename My TV Series to keep the names to a good naming convention. Each season gets its own folder inside the overall folder for the series.

Plex does a nice job of downloading the metadata and stuff and organising it so long as the files are named well

This is what I wanted to hear, thank you!

I really need to get onto Plex, I use it to stream off my brothers server from across town but not to orangise files/folders. I should get on to that

All TV shows in one folder, all films in another. Doesn't matter whether it's anime or not

I keep them separate. Movies are not always an extension of the show. Dragon Ball Z movies for example are standalone mostly.

This is what I ended up going with

Hard drive is music and media
Inside media is anime, animation, movies, tv
Inside anime is movies and tv

Movies are stand alone features like Tekken, Your Name and Akira
Tv has all the anime that have series but everything associated is in it there as well (movies, OVA's, specials etc)

Dragon Ball gets complicated haha
