| if that means we get s1 quality at the cost of another cour right away I'm fine with that. |
| bet they'll just make adapt eldorado into a movie, you ain't slick madhouse |

| Well shit, there goes the arc that I was most anticipating from this season... If they don't do a part 2 for the second season or at least a 1 cour season 3 after this im gonna be upset for a while 😭 What are the chances that this leak is wrong? I know this is a trusted leaker but still. |

Haunt88 said: bet they'll just make adapt eldorado into a movie A movie? You mean ONE movie? Come on, El Dorado Arc is freaking long, if one movie, then it will be 5 to 6 hours long. If two or three movies, the first will be definitely a flop, a box office failure (If you are a manga reader, you know what i mean here) and it will greatly affect the success of subsequent movies. In conclude, adapting El Dorado Arc into movie(s) is the worst decision ever lol |

| El Dorado arc would take roughly 14 episodes to cover, then Goddess Monument Arc would be about 8-10 episodes long + it’d make for a better season finale considering its content compared to the former. It’d be overkill even for Madhouse to go for a THREE-cour season with the current industrial climate, and skipping the content right before El Dorado just cause “it’s filler” is out of character especially considering how the anime has a tendency to expand scenes that are otherwise short and faster-paced in the manga material. Makes sense (especially when Fukishi is currently managing another upcoming original project) but yea I can kinda see why this is a bit of a letdown for many here. Update: okay I’ve seen people arguing about why not catch up to the manga…well, I sure as hell don’t think the staff, many of whom are definitely fans of the source material, would want to fancy another situation like with Fullmetal Alchemist 2003 and Chrono Crusade where they had to completely diverge with no more manga material to cover. |

| It means about 2 volumes being adapted. It's very likely they will animate the next "Big Arc" soon after that. Maybe by october or january of 2027. |
| Well, as a fan, and being honest, I'm obviously disappointed we are only getting 10 episodes, since Frieren is one of my favorite anime series, so I wanted to get a 2 cour 2nd season. But the reality is that it would be really difficult for them to produce a 2 cour season in the same quality of the 1st season with the amount of time they had, and so I'm not complaining about this season only getting 10 episodes. If it's for the anime to maintain the same quality, I super approve of this decision. I much prefer getting a shorter season, but of high quality, rather than a longer season, but of lower quality. I'm just happy this 2nd season is already so close to air! Less than a month to be finally able to watch it! |
| I look foreword to the incredibly grating discourse of the show's fall off cause it will like have a score around 8.70 or whatever since its not gonna cover as much content as the first and by extension not be as good. |

Sad taste you have there kid you came up to me in the first place making you look more like a kid who got slapped without me even knowing it and start crying about it to me |

| @JizzyHitler Yes, this will be annoying, so I will stay away from this forum and enjoy these 10 episodes |
| I think I'm okay with only 10 episodes, but only IF that means we don't have to wait another 2-3 years for season 3. Now THAT would kinda suck. |

Everyone believing is leak is simply ignorant. Let's assume they want first cover the next two arcs, then do Golden Land seperately. 10 episodes is too much unless they start an ep or two into the Golden Land, which would entirely defeat this argument. Look at the chapters on the wiki. Compare the average chapter by episode adaption rate. It's impossible. Unless they stretch out an entire chapter into an episode, or add a ton of fillers (NONE OF WHICH WAS DONE IN S1 BTW), it won't happen. So just use a little bit of deductive reasoning please.
| @VanillaMeurs I took a look at the wiki and although it does say the Golden Land arc starts on chapter 77, Frieren's party only get to the golden city at chapter 81 (chapter 77 gives us a small look into the golden city but chapter 78 to 80 aren't related), so the number of chapters between the end of season 1 (chapter 60) and the start of the Golden Land arc (chapter 80) is exactly 20 chapters and if you assume that season 2 will follow what season 1 did and adapt 2 chapters per episode then the 10 episode count does actually make sense. I'm guessing that they will do what a lot of studios do these days and have a half a year break in between the two cours, which isnt so bad when you think about it cause that means they will be able to give their full focus to the Golden Land arc and give it the attention and care it deserves instead of doing a half-assed adaptation |
| This isnt absolutely confirmed, so im just gonna wait and see |

@feyyazu35 So yeah, let's disregard my arguments because it's from a "reliable source". You're a waste of time
| @VanillaMeurs Gotta love how you're like "don't trust this source - even though it's been proven right 90% of the time -, but trust me even though I'm going purely out of hypotheticals" |
