Add the airing status.
One of [FINISHED_AIRING, CURRENTLY_AIRING, NOT_YET_AIRED, UNKNOWN]

EDIT:
In my opinion the wording above is not taking releases of home video formats into consideration which are not airing.
The correct way would be to distinguish between home video releases and anime which have a broadcast / airing.
Something like this:
Home video formats: [RELEASED, RELEASING, NOT_YET_RELEASED, UNKNOWN]
Broadcast / airing: [FINISHED_AIRING, CURRENTLY_AIRING, NOT_YET_AIRED, UNKNOWN]
However that is not possible at the moment. So I tried to find a wording that would be applicable for both. I got inspired by the status wording of kitsu and notify.moe and came up with
[FINISHED, CURRENTLY, UPCOMING, UNKNOWN]
