Hello fine people of this lovely community. Like normal, this thread is the place to collect all your random anime thoughts, hot takes, and questions. Some example conversation starters:
- I really liked Rent a Girlfriend and was wondering what to watch next?
- My brain is too smooth to understand Evangelion. ELI5?
- My Neighbor Totoro is a trash movie. Allow me to count the ways…
- Is there any news about a season 2 of Usagi Drop? I really love where the manga goes after the anime and wanted to know when it might get adapted.
As always, remember to be mindful of spoilers. If you want to know more about how to handle spoilers, I wrote a guide for you to reference.
Does anyone know what’s gonna happen to rest of JJK S2? Are they airing like normal or has there been any delays announced.
I haven’t seen any announcements. If I had to guess, I would expect the show to continue to come out regularly. However, if things continue to spiral over at Mappa, then the quality could decline as the show continues. Time will tell.
I hope they are treated better and are paid what they deserve.
Just wanted to swing by and give an update that there is now a 1 day delay for the next episode making its way to streaming services.
Oh thanks. But what happened to that standoff situation. Did Mappa defuse the situation with the animators??
No idea past the previous posts to twitter. The situation is likely still unfolding. I wouldn’t be surprised if delays like this one continue. That is what has happened for past shows like Zom 100 and Nier. The delays start as a day or two and then get extended to a longer hiatus once they run out of booked timeslots for the broadcast season.
Did something happen with JJK? I was a couple episodes behind, but caught up yesterday, so I guess I’m out of the loop if there was a delay.
Here is an article about it. Basically a giant corporation is doing giant corporation things and driving the animators to work on unreasonable timelines with a ton of extra crunch. There has been some recent pushback against Mappa in the past week or two from others in the industry.
