What would you like to see at this point? I think the movie hit it out of the park. The next arc in movie form would be nuts.

I think a movie would be amazing as well, but I’d be fine with either. I just really wanna see more of this masterpiece of writing adapted into anime!

It will probably be a second season because one movie isn't enough to adapt the next arc, and even if it were divided into a trilogy, I don't think it would be a good format. I have the same opinion about the Kimetsu no Yaiba movies.

a series would be better but a movie trilogy (or even 4) would be crazy hype

The next arc after Reze arc is a little too dense for it to fit into a movie runtime so they’re better off making it a full season

Second season then a movie to wrap up this part is the most likely scenario.

it would be a s2. Only reason they had a movie was because the arc was perfect for it.

Reze arc works as a movie because it's short and self contained. If they made another movie s2 would be an awkwardly short season

I had an idea yesterday when I went to theatre to watch the movie: It is probably more lucrative for anime studios to create more movies at this point, cause they can excuse longer time needed for animating, and also they can get more revenue, since everyone is kinda forced to pirate most of the anime shows. This way they can motivate more people to pay for ticket, and receive bigger revenue. I see that as absolute win-win situation. We get better animation and experience, studios get more money.

Personally International Assassins and Control are some of my favourite arcs from any series I've read and I think I'd prefer them be released as shows, not as films
I did enjoy Reze-hen being a film but it is also the shortest arc in the Public Safety Saga
Also if they do release the rest of the Public Safety Saga as series then we'll get more Ed's and s1 has some of my favourites

A single cour season should be enough to finish part 1, as there are 45 chapters left. Season 1 adapted 38 in 12 episodes, so if they can make 13-14 with maybe a longer one it should perfectly fine. I don't think another movie would work, especially not for the last arc, its structure does not fit the movie format at all.

They cannot adapt the international Assassin's arc in one movie.

The thing with the Reze Arc is that it's a self-contained story like any would expect which basically works in movie format. The next arc after this movie would not fit as a movie since it can end awkwardly + it'll just be like compiled episodes mashed into a movie so it's a Season 2 by no doubt.

Season 2 for sure this time. Then i guess there might be a movie recap and the first two episodes of part 2. Similar to the upcoming Jujutsu Kaisen movie. Hopium, I really want to see baby Asa on the big screen so badly.

I think there will be a second season, in which the first 4-6 episodes will be dedicated to the Reze arc, and then the next arc, depending on how Jujutsu Kaisen is released.

@ReMightyRon The next arc is only 4 chapters longer than Bomb Girl/Reze; it could be fit into a 2+ hour film. With that being said, they would pretty much have to make the rest of Part 1 into movies if they did that, and I really don’t want to have to keep waiting 2 or 3 years per arc, especially when they could easily just adapt the next 45 chapters into a slightly longer season 2.

Second Season that encompasses the rest of Part 1. Mainly because it shouldn't take nearly as long but also because I don't think the remaining arcs would work as well in a movie format, and if even one of them was a movie suddenly you have less than one cour of content left for a show, so they'd pretty much all have to be movies.

I don’t think you understood what I said. What I meant is that it’s been three years since the first season. which isn’t long but you know what I mean.

@er_ror

Nah, you were right about it being long, 3 years is incredibly long especially compared to CSM's peers when the first season was only 12 episodes to begin with.

JJK and KnY both had 24/26 episode first seasons then follow up movies and another 2 cour season within 2-3 years.

Dandadan started airing a year ago and already has twice as many episodes as Chainsaw Man.

Mappa has fumbled the momentum so hard with Chainsaw Man I'm genuinely so glad the response to this movie has been as positive and big as it has, of course now unless Mappa has been working on Season 2 for a while behind closed doors we're probably going to have another multi-year wait just to get to the same number of TV episodes JJK, KnY and Frieren got in their first run.

Season 2 is a no brainer but if I wanted money, I would do this:

Package season 2 as a movie duology.
International Assassin arc would be part 1, Gun Devil arc and the climax arc part 2.
Release them a month apart like what the Dead Dead Demon's Dededede Destruction movies did.

A season 2 would be approximately 13 episodes, so the pacing would be really tight if they did this.

If MAPPA wants to be a little humane, then just release it a few months later, like a cour's length.

i think movie is good, actually the coming story would be blockbuster in movie form
but ofc there's a lot of detailed animating to be done that it might take time

Lots of folks saying a second season. Not sure what the benefits are of that, when there are a million monetary benefits for doing a movie AND it would look/sound as amazing as the Reze movie did. Is it because S2 would be a shorter wait?

@GiftShop TopgunUK summed it up quite nicely. They need to keep the momentum up, and I’d much rather not have to keep waiting 2-3 years for a single arc; the remaining Part 1 arcs are the perfect number of chapters for a 13-14 episode season, so they would pretty much have to make all of them into movies if they did it for the next one.

The International Assassins Arc has to be a TV series, way too crazy shit happened in that arc and a movie might not be able to do it justice.
