86--EIGHTY-SIX (light novel)
| I have only been following seasonal anime for a few years now, so don't have much info/knowledge about yesteryears, but we all know just how ridiculous, possibly even pathetic, the releases have been for this anime. I can't even remember exactly all the delays/recaps/specials this anime has had so far, there has been so many.... A special commentary episode, a recap episode and is it 2 or 3 delays now? I honestly can't remember... Yes, there's the December 11 Japan Day, the only excuse that's good IMO. Though why doesn't it affect other anime that air the same day? Different channels? VERY convenient IMO.... And if you do you know another anime release that's been more crazy than this, please say it, would be interesting to know the details... And now, a three month wait until the final two episodes drop lol.. oh dear. |

| I don't remember the exact details, but Girls und Panzer had to delay the air date of its final few episodes by three months, and they also experienced other troubles before that |

| IIRC, Darling in the FranXX aslo had quite a few weeks where they'd release not an Episode, but rather a re-cap or commentary episode. ᴵ ʲᵘˢᵗ ʷᶦˢʰ ⁸⁶ ᵈᵒᵉˢ ⁿᵒᵗ ᵉⁿᵈ ˡᶦᵏᵉ ᴰᶦᵗᶠ⁻ |
| From what I remember, Full Metal Panic! Invisible Victory had 2 delays and the final 2 episodes combined air like weeks after the previous episode that aired then? It's only a 1 cour season, visuals got a lot worse in the later episodes and the Xebec studio is shut down now. It's a fucking great season for me but man was that such a chaotic experience, fitting for a sequel that returned 13 years after its previous entry out of absolutely nowhere. There's probably way worse but this is the one that comes to mind for me since I started watching seasonals. I know Beatless had a hell schedule too with many delays and the final few episodes airing many months later, but that's a 2 cour series. |
| It is a bit annoying, but I don't mind waiting for new episodes. Honestly didn't expect multiple delays though. Don't know of many shows that have had multiple delays, so it could possibly be the most chaotic release. |

| I don’t mind these delays if the quality they deliver is still amazing . This is the last delay after this we will be going to get some amazing 4eps . Have some patience. |
|
| Beatless comes to mind. I think that one had also 3 if not 4 recaps. |
One Piece episode 914 & 915 & 1027 were a mistake and 957 brought the salvation - FMmatron |

| One thing I do wonder amongst all the delays, is that when and how is the finale of this cour going to air? Since if I recall, My Dress-Up Darling shares the same timeslot and main channel (sorry if I mess details up, not too familiar with details here) that 86 has and it would start on Jan 9th at 12 am in JST, same time for 86's finale for cour 2 if no more delays happen. Would there be some rescheduling on the same day? Or would 86 have a couple episodes combine into one and have a 1 hour special for the sake of time-management? Or the worst choice is potential postponement for a few months. I have no idea how this works so I'm curious. |
| I find it funny how more people voted Yes here, when Beatless and Regalia Sacred Stars were a thing. Also, I think the Fate/Extra finale was supposed to be originally one and the same with the main one back in Winter 2018. Magia Record S2 and Magia Record Final Season were definitely supposed to be one and the same entry as well, too, but Aniplex said otherwise plus Shaft tends to have a bad habit with getting stuff done on time. Oh yea, Full Metal Panic Invisible Victory also had a wild broadcasting case as well. Keep in mind that Aniplex initially wanted this series to premiere back in Fall 2020, so its already quite a crunch scheduling-wise. If there are any shows airing in the same date and same time as the finale on Jan 8th-9th, then I'm pretty sure there will be an alternative way for them to stream that or the other show in question. I dunno for sure, though, cause I'm no expert on what goes on behind the scenes. A back-to-back episode option IS possible, but they announce that much sooner than later if it's possible. |

| No. This one isn't so bad as there were only two delays. When Sailor Moon Crystal was airing, they would only air two episodes a month for its run, which was also 12 episode anime. While I'm not a massive fan of 86, this came out great in the end. |
| I remember when God Eater was released and the 4 last episodes were delayed for 6 months because of its peculiar animation |
| The only one I can talk about is WEP. It had to delay an episode because of production issues. Which made it so it lost the TV time slot for the last episode. And they had to air the last episode 3 months later despite it still having production issues. The end result was a disappointment to the surprise of no one who read the obvious clues. |
 |
| Honestly, I'm fine with these episodes taking longer than expected to be released. I'd prefer the quality of the show to stay the same, then for it to amount to shit because it was rushed. Overall, just remember what the studio and staff are going through and the reasons for the delays. And, I mean we all have seen shows or series where it was rushed and it's turn out. |

| Not 12 episodes nor TV but Strike The Blood IV was releasing 2 episodes every three months |

Waran-Ess said: I don't remember the exact details, but Girls und Panzer had to delay the air date of its final few episodes by three months, and they also experienced other troubles before that What!? I’ve seen all of Girls und Panzer and never knew about this. I assume you’re talking about the series and not the plethora of movies (how the fuck does Girls und Panzer have 4 movies with 3 more coming out soon) and OVA’s the show has. Do you know the reason it was delayed for so long. It just strikes me as odd. |
| God Eater from Ufotable, got many delays between the week releases and the final 4 episode took months to air. |
| I find it a bit funny how OP comes off as entitled and arrogant in his post. Do you even know how much of a pressure it is for these people at work? Working conditions aren’t the best for animators in Japan, unfortunately. So you can afford to be a bit more understanding for something like this. It’s not like you have nothing else to do but watch anime in your life. |
 |
| Magia Record is another example. They went with 8 episode season, of which last 4 episodes were complete mess, with last episode being delayed. The final season was supposed to start airing December, but there has been no news so far. |
 |
| Beatless exists so yeah, can't be more chaotic than that, imagine having 20 episodes and 4 recaps in between only to get the last 4 after a few months |
    |
| Simple 12 episodes? Pathetic?....... The entire lack of knowledge and pathetic entitlement of the OP are why certain anime fans are hated. If they need two weeks for every episode so the staff don't work themselves to death and can get the quality they have worked so hard for then good. |

| “I just spent the last two years thinking that you guys knew more than me about life and I just found out that you guys are just as dumb as me.” “Duh-doy.” “Yeah, duh-doy.” |
| Madoka Magica's last 2 episodes were delayed indefinitely because of the Tōhoku earthquake in 2011. While yeah, a vis maior at that caliber can't really be mentioned at the same page as mere production difficulties, it was scary to hear that even the staff had no idea when they will be able to air the remaining episodes. Having one week scheduled delays are nothing. |
| Seriously, back in 2003/2004 there was airing an anime called Wolf's Rain. It aired pretty much okay till episode 15, then episodes 15-18 (four eps) are simply recapitulation episodes with no new content. I don't remember exactly, but I think it may be mix of eartquake/SARS outbreak/budget problems combined. The story ended as planned 26-episodes, so next year they released 4 OVA episodes to end the story (which was disturbed). So you know. Better not aired than recaps aired as regular episodes. |

Having one week scheduled delays are nothing. That's a major fucking difference though. Madoka's last episodes weren't delayed because the studio was constantly behind schedule, their finale took place during a natural disaster that flooded the entire city and they decided it would be in bad taste to air that right after an earthquake and subsequent tsunami left thousands of people dead. They delayed the finale to put distance between it and the events and essentially redo large chunks of it to remove the flooded city from the scenes. I didn't want to write a novel, anybody who's even remotely interested in the topic could've read the backstory. Read the last sentence too, calling a week of delay or two the most chaotic release too is just ridiculous. Many mentioned WEP as an example but 'scheduling errors' and 'having no fcking clue how to write an actual ending but we have to bs our way out either way' are not remotely the same either. |
