| They are pretty good and consistent. I didn't know that they'll do snk but I hope some of the old staff remains. Edit: just read some info, no araki and co but hayashi is not that bad, he directed garo, kakegurui and dorohedoro and worked for some nice anime projects |

| I am fine with delays. Season 4 seems much more action packed from the looks of it in the PV. As much as 3 months can go into making one episode. Anything is fine as long as we get a polished product, ofc. Wouldn't want them rushing through it. |
| I have quite a few favourites from MAPPA, but I nearly got a heart attack when I saw they're doing SnK. I'm pretty nervous about that, the art in the previews seems decent but it lacks that...crispness that WIT Studio has in their animations. I personally don't think MAPPA can match WIT Studio, but I hope they prove me wrong. |
 |
| Happy that they are getting such good anime to make! Well, I don't really care much about studios anyways, so I don't get whats all this fuss about JC Staff and I'm not much of a connoisseur so I get pleased easily :) Just saw the trailer for AOT s4 and now I'm hyped! P.S. - Also who remembers directors and stuff? |

deg said: now Attack on Titan final season lol wtf? MAPPA is one of my fav studios, but adapting Shingeki no Kyojin? Hope it doesn't end up like the second season of One Punch Man. |
| Few scenes from the trailer is quite displeasing. It lack of the usual dark atmosphere from the previous season. I hope it's just my feeling since I'm really looking forward to this. |
NamikazeHime said: MAPPA is one of my fav studios, but adapting Shingeki no Kyojin? Hope it doesn't end up like the second season of One Punch Man. I completely agree. I feel like their adaptation is going to be a hit or miss, and I don't even want to think about what it'll be like as a miss. |
|
| They'll become the next jc staff once they start producing ten billion seasons of their huge shows but for now they don't seem to be too big on sequels. |

| No, MAPPA's shows don't look like dogshit. |

 |
| Last time I checked, Mappa is just baby Madhouse, so it makes sense they'd be busy. |
deg said: how much big anime they are animating in almost parallel right now from God of High School, Jujutsu Kaisen and now Attack on Titan final season lol wtf? but good thing that Attack on Titan maybe delayed for next year it seems thoughts overall? Wait.. MAPPA is doing Attack On Titan Season 4? |

If it's a miss, backlash would be worse than the one that s2 of OPM got. |
| You know, I was going to say that you're overreacting, but then I learned they are going to make new season of AoT. This reminds me of the situation with One Punch Man. |

deg said: I don’t want to be misunderstood. MAPPA has become “just” a big house for producing animated visual media upon offers from committees (corporations). Hardly any creator driven projects, hardly any original content. It’s a valid approach and business model. But disappointing. source https://twitter.com/liborek3/status/1266307257295405061 the new McDonalds of anime studios i guess Since when was MAPPA big on original shows? They are famous for their solid adaptations. Hardly McDonalds like J.C.Staff. |
| Mappa animates really good, JC not onoy produces trash, but also animates like garbo and do horrible adaptations (go ask the ToAru fans who waited for S3 for like a decade). Also people are way too paranoid with the change. Wit were done with SNK and a competent studio (with most of the precious staff still working on it) was the one who took the torch. Those people saying "It does not look dark enough" are just edgelords. The trailer looks fine. |
Daniel_Naumov said: deafnote said: Which is funny because when Maruyama (Madhouse founder) packed up and moved on to Mappa, it was to get away from what Madhouse was turning into- basically a fast food service as you put it. So I definitely agree with you there. I think it's unfortunate too. Looks like the tables have turned and this Murayama brought this fast-food mentality with him. Although I still believe MAPPA is putting a lot of effort at least in some of its series. For example, Shingeki no Bahamut was outstanding, when compared to the average Japanese animation series. Not a masterpiece, but a prime example of how game adaptations should look like (NO GAME, all story). Actually Maruyama left MAPPA in 2015/16 and founded a new studio called M2. And right after he left you can see MAPPA embracing "fast-food" mentality. |
| JC Staff barely animated action animes, also, majority of their shows lacked quality, while MAPPA have done many good action animes with some of them being very popular. MAPPA produced Zenkyou no Terror, Rage of Bahamut, Inuyashiki, Kakegurui, Dororo, Yuri on Ice, Dorohedoro and Banana Fish. They all have gorgeous animation, yeah some of them had a decline in the animation in the later eps (Like Banana Fish / Dororo). But still, they know how to handle an anime probably. And if you take a look at GoH, JK and AoT's final trailers, you'll know at once that they're well done. Sure, maybe AoT may not be the same as when it was with WiT's hands, but it'll be at least x100 better than OPM s2 when it was handled by JC Staff or even NNT s3 by DEEN Studio. There's a huge difference, but ppl just love to make a fuss out of nowhere and write some weird-ass shit with hating on literally everything. When AoT s2-3 were produced, ppl were shitting on WiT's animation quality as well, like CGI titans etc ... So no wonder, ppl will hate on anything here as long as they can pay for their internet's bill. |

| MAPPA have yet to pull a string of shit shows out from their arses, so I don't think they should be compared to JC Staff (yet, anyways), who are known to pump out multiple underwhelming and bad shows each year. And what if S4 turns out better than all the previous seasons combined? (By the looks of the trailers and videos, it's gonna be real good.) |

| I mean J.C. STAFF can’t be topped honestly I feel There was the time when they made 6 shows all in one season during 2012 which I can only picture A-1 Pictures beating in terms of numbers https://myanimelist.net/anime/season/2012/winter Plus I cant even picture MAPPA even reaching as high a quality as J.C I’m not saying MAPPA bad but they are nothing compared to J.C STAFF in my eyes |
 |
| I thought MAPPA was already the new Madhouse since Madhouse died in 2010. In term of originality, identity, productivity and reliability. |
| You just have this impression because they were given a few anime for the rest of the year, but it's still far to equal J.C. Staff But I sure hope MAPPA will pick up nice adaptations in the future They've done a really good job these last years (Banana Fish in 2018, Dororo in 2019, Dorohedoro in 2020), I came to like their work so they deserve more recognition |
| J.C. staff animes' production values are shit most of the time. I hope mappa doesn't sacrifice quality for quantity. |
 |
| MAPPA over the years has gotten better with their animation, but they do like to take lotsa risks.Their 3D can be a mixed bag too Them animating Attack On Titan would be something interesting. |

| I love MAPPA, but SnK is big thing to take on. I'm not sure if they are ready for it. I don't think they have done anything so action focused? |
| MAPPA can take as many shows it want but should maintain consistency.They are fine with the 1-cours but they fail hard on 2-cours.Dororo 2nd didn't look as good as the first half.Also,they rely a lot on CG.Not that it's a bad thing but if not used properly it would stand-out.I had no problem with Dorohedoro but the CGI looks iffy in Listeners.Their shows are mostly hit and miss. SnK final season would be two cours and that's my problem.Hope it's a split cour so they could manage it properly.Sorry for those CGI hates who shat on Wit for using CGI horses because MAPPA heavily relies on CGI. MAPPA is far from J.C.Staff.MAPPA animates like two series at most per season whereas J.C. does atleast three to four per season. |

| What do you mean the Railgun J.C Staff or Index III J.C Staff? |
| B O C C H I S W E E P |
| don't do this deg, don't jinx it well so far at least Mappa has been doing seasonal releases and have been releasing bangers (Banana Fish, Dororo, Dorohedoro) so I think they'll be fine for now |
 'On-Hold' is another way for a completionist to say 'Dropped' |
SapphyeePH said: Sometimes I also wonder are they even the same studio.Their consistency is whack.What do you mean the Railgun J.C Staff or Index III J.C Staff? |
| I don't know maybe? Cause J.C hasn't done much worth of noting as of late and I've enjoyed what MAPPA has been doing these years. They've been pretty consistent. |

| Mappa is meh to me overall, but it's gonna be tough to top the level of "quality" in OPM2 and the newer seasons of Food Wars. |
