I have no objection.
If they want to delay the ending to make sure that the ending is as satisfactory as possible then so be it.

Besides, they won't leave us with the cliffhanger for the whole 3 months.

It sold unexpectedly well and the ending was probably made as if they wouldn't have a second season.
Which may be likely due to this happening.

Not sure how you got the idea that they feel ashamed of low quality. From the announcement, the feeling I got is that they decided to boost up the number of cuts and this contributes to a lot to delay. It is not as if they have something already and feel ashamed of its quality as the animation of those episodes are probably not yet completed. What I got is that they want to make the quality even better and this causes the problem of not being able to meet the deadline (and indeed this points to some serious issue with the resource management and how the desire to create the best output be balanced with the resource constraint).
I must have misunderstood your post about ep10 earlier in this thread. After watching the episode I honestly don't see anything wrong with it. Maybe I didn't notice some QUALITY (okay, tank in the beginning was definitely too slim) because I had so much fun? Really great episode, the best so far, made me love the ending. A little late in the season but it still counts as achievement! ^^

If you go to the thread where we discuss the ep.10 of Girls und Panzer I have posted a few examples of what fans found in terms of animation quality issues there. But then I would say that it is more like the perfectionism and modesty of the director than a really serious drop in quality that would make you demand explanation.

If you are too busy to check that thread, I can give you one example: the katsu sandwich definitely looks incomplete.
So MAL finally starts locking news threads that are only a few weeks old?

I wonder where was the announcement of this change? Or we are seeing yet another case of changes made that impacted users but not communicated to them?

I wonder how long people would put up with this.

As much as I have a bunch of information to share about anime announced recently I cannot share it in news board, and the anime series is too disorganized and chaotic to share information except with people already interested in the particular series.

I heard that a second season for Girls und Panzer was greenlit, I don't know if it's true but if it is, then that would make sense for postponing the last two episodes this far.

I can already imagine them redoing the entire match to leave room for season two

If it really is, then I see the point why it is delayed :D

It looks like that hiatus for "Madoka Magika", with the difference of this one being on purpouse.

Why do amazing and surprising series go on hiatus?

You always have Saki with superior sisters. Thing is, you'll have to wait ~three years for their match.

Longer than that, they won't play against each-other until the individuals. I give it 5~ years, and even then I'm optimistic.

I meant manga and was very optimistic. If Ritz stopped taking breaks she should be able to finish Team Tournament in 2014 and we would get Saki vs Teru in individuals at the end of 2015.

I was also talking about the manga, and I doubt ritz will stop taking breaks. She has to do 'research' afterall.

Yeah, you're right. It would be possible if she let Igarashi help her a bit with drawing but considering how Ritz almost missed the deadline this month because she was too caught up with toning Nodoka's boobs... I doubt she would let someone take care of any part of Saki.

actully in saki we close to the end of the semi finals of the netionals so we will see saki and teru will face each other soon and ritz not take breaks in the manga saki chapters alweys out after one month

They just started the vanguard match, they are far from close to the end.

I just looked carefully at manga and have to admit I was definiely too optimistic earlier. Quarterfinal match alone took 31 chapters. Semifinal should be similar, same with final. If you add in some SoL/comedy breathers or analyzing past and future matches etc. you will see there's no chance of Individuals starting in 2014. I'm not even sure about 2015.

the suprise is that unlike the original saki. the episode of a is moving much faster since it was not take them alot of chapters to reach the captian match even with the flashbacks so i think since each chapter of achiga hen have lot of pages it will spoil to us soon somthing about the original manga next chapters

I'm sure it won't. Achiga-hen will most likely end with final match and Igarashi will move on to draw different manga. Hopefully pro spin-off. I want more of Wakanne. I want more of Hayarin. I'm going to get more of Risa in original manga but it won't satisfy my needs.
Achiga is just side story to provide info about other side of tournament. If Saki was created by someone other than Ritz, Side A manga&anime wouldn't even exist.

Achiga-hen won't cover the finals, the main manga will.

And Saki & Teru won't face eachother untill the individuals(tacos will face teru in the finals)

i heard that making anime for tv is stressful. they pretty much finish the ep like 30 mins b4 it airs
my guess is they burned out because of christmas made mistakes or somone may have even become sick from overwork wich may explain the the long delay
i love anime you will never find me whining because of a recap episode :) do u realise if u have a weekly spot on tv anywhere missing an episode is the fastest way to get canned or lose veiwers. if u see a recap ep u should be thankful they are airing somthing and keeping the show alive.

You mean you want them to release a beach video to make up for the long wait? Or you have seen a beach video and thought it is an attempt to make up for the long wait?

Anyway, there is indeed a beach video released last month but that is an extra that comes as part of the package for the BD/DVD volume 1 that was released last month (and has been out of stock everywhere since). The plan is to make an original video for each BD/DVD volume to entice people to buy the discs. It has long been in the plan before the hiatus announcement, so if you meant to say that video is an attempt by the studio to appease fans for their long wait, that is not true.
So MAL finally starts locking news threads that are only a few weeks old?

Yeah, sorry. I meant release one for the long wait. Wasn't aware that they had an Iva already but for DVD only sucks. They need an ova that isn't DVD only.

I posted some news about Episode 11 in the Girls und Panzer anime section here:
http://myanimelist.net/forum/?topicid=553879

Take a look if you are interested. Leave a message in that thread to keep GnP section bumped up in the Anime Series board. Hopefully more people may click into it then.

I left a message in the Girls und Panzer Fanclub earlier but so far attracted no traffic there, so I am trying it here.

What so are you saying that the delay is so that they can rewrite the last two episodes in order to make a sequel possible?
There is no such thing as shit taste. Only idiots who think everyone should have the same taste as they do.
