Can someone explain to me the logic behind giving a first season 24 eps , but the second season 12 eps? Surely back in 2013 by giving us 2 cour it poses a risk as SnK was kind of unknown back then?

I'm expecting it to be extremely rushed, because according to the preview video, they are adapting a very large chunk of the source material. Basically, they are covering as much content (if not more) as season 1 did with 24 episodes.

It'll be a huge disappointment, and I'm not even a big fan of the show. So I imagine that the fanboys/fangirls will bring out the pitchforks and torches.
It's pretty obvious that they are only covering the Clash of the Titans arc, so it WON'T be rushed

I haven't read the manga, do you think 12 episodes is sufficient to cover that arc?
And also, do you think episode 1 will be extra long (maybe extending to 30+ mins) to act as a strong opening?

Ok, to stay on topic, I will ignore this troll with a shit taste.
What was said on that twitter post? I only see volume 1/2 and 18. of August. IF it would be 12ep, it would end way before 18. of August...

@Sapewloth Explained it already, not gonna repeat myself. And just by looking at 1-2 vids I already know if I like a character or not. Before I started watching hxh and reborn, I knew I will hate the MCs, and I was right about it...
Good thing about Hunter x Hunter though is that a lot of the Side characters take a lot of Spotlight from Gon for Most of the show(so if you aren't a big fan of him you'll at least Love the side character or main characters of those arcs)

Well, duh. What I'm saying is that those scenes in particular were key animated prior to the actual production as separated scenes in order to act as advertisement. If you know anything about the production process as a whole then you will come to the conclusion that those scenes will have a significantly higher amount of keyframes and more dynamic cinematography than the rest of the show. Pre-animated scenes can look absolute fantastic cause they're mostly done outside of the actual production flow while on the other side the actual production could suffer from major hiccups and dips in quality.

So in that sense the trailer is no indication on what the actual average quality throughout the show will be and hence not really a legitimate way to determine whether a series only has 1 cour or more.


Well, the point I was making is that they are already half way through season 2, meaning those episodes were not rushed, so to the very least these few episodes should be as good as the pre animated scenes, since they finish those episodes without any pressure, unlike some episodes in season 1 that were literally finish hours before it airs.

And with them giving them self a good amount of breather, I suspect they could finish the entire season before they encounter any production problem, especially since its only 12 episodes.
Do you think they could have squeezed in the Clash of the Titans arc into 10 episodes then the Uprising arc in 12 episodes(making for 22 instead of 25 so they didn't have to be to far behind schedule IF it was ever a 2 cour?)

Only one piece sells more than snk in Japan, I'm guessing you don't follow manga sales. But Magus does have decent sales, and with a anime it could become a hit.


No need to guess since I just said I don't :) Interesting, since I only ever hear negative comments about the SnK manga.

all these rages over 12 episodes is just overreacting

Jeez, really, some really great manga even not get adaptation, or adaptation is on level, that it would be better, if there shouldn't be any adaptation. It's like SnK is only one good anime out there and these four years people are just stared at blank space all the time.

I give up. Fuck this


I was about to say the same thing. I understand that the animation in AoT Is more detailed, but 4 years and only 12 episodes? Seriously?
Artwork*, Boku no Hero Season 2 is probably going to be the show that the Sakuga Nerds are going to go to this season

It will be a ending with unfinished characters arcs and No anwsers, the Uprising arc would have gave us that and a good ending for this season(if it was 2 cours)


They already finished season 1 with "no answers" and wherever they would have finished a 2 cours there would be again "no answers" because that's a good and long story, there's still a lot more to discover.
It might not look like it for you anymore because it's old story in the manga, but there are quite some revelations in this coming season even within one cour.
There is more revlations...then brings in more questions that the Uprising arc answers(and don't forget the Character arcs)

The main issue with the original adaptation was that it suffered from severe pacing problems after a very quick an energetic start, very obviously due to trying to end the season with the capture of Annie when that really wasn't enough to fill so many episodes.

So if anything this kind of guarantees that the same cripplingly slow pacing issue will not happen this time around.
It most likely will have the SAME Pacing , since the same amount of Chapters they are adapting(16 for the Clash of the Titans arc), is the same amount as the Female Titan arc

I actually felt that the female titan arc didn't drag nearly as much as the first part of the season, how many episodes did it take for Eren to carry that boulder again?

But I must admit I haven't seen the show since it originally aired and I read the bulk of the manga even before that, so my perception may be skewed.

Still, at least this delays the endless cries of "boring" and "I didn't came here to watch politics" that will inevitably come when the later parts of the manga get adapted and the wider audience that thinks the story is solely about violence and action gets exposed to it.
But we have to get through the arc SO we can get to the Final 2 arcs of the series, and that arc has a Lot of Levi and Mikasa action, so the fans would at least like that

It is never the Studio's fault. They are only hired guns. Blame the production company and publisher.

But this is really surprising, this series sells over 1M copies each issue. I will admit it is not my cup of tea and I will not watch it, but I cannot fathom how poorly the management of the animation for this series has been.

This should have been a 48-52 episode animation from the start, from a fantastic studio. This should have been a franchise anime. I can't understand why it is being treated so poorly.

I've yet to play Breath Of The Wild, seems decent, meh.

Never played the Persona games.

Red Dead Redemption, has it even come out yet? Can't give an honest opinion about it if I haven't looked at it, the original game was okay.

Bloodborne, trash.

Horizon Zero Fucks, trash.

Uncharted, meh, never played any of the games but from what I've seen in YouTube comments and such It sounds to be bad, but not really my full opinion since I never even took a look at it.

The Last Of Us... Are you serious man?. Why don't you click on this link and scroll down till you find "Release" or just simply type in "Crtl + F" and then type into that search bar; Release. I think you'll know what I mean.

Lol I think you know what I must mean about it huh?.


Zero Escape.. Never heard of it. Just looked it up, 9/10 in steam huh, cool I guess (Didn't bother to click on the Google results Steam link, I think I already saw the trailer before, meh,
again, can't really give an opinion on it due these games being past my knowledge, aka, never played or indulged with them at all before.

But here's the thing you must realize.

You were only able to name 9 games... And many of them were not even from last year or even 2015.. This just goes back to what I said originally.

I'm sure you could maybe try to point out more games if I gave you time, but seriously, how many would you really find? Also, if we narrow it down to popular genres, how much more narrowed down will that be?.

For example, FPS Games, RPG Games.. Gets super narrow if you try to only state games from specific genres.

Also, I realized a few minutes ago that you also mentioned the Witcher 3..


Awful game, good story, I'd rather read the books that I never will read
than button smash the fuck out of some dumb ass Drowner groups that keep on boringly respawning after I SMASH them back down with a "silver" Sword wielded by Geralt's MASSIVE muscles with one of the most terrible Fighting Systems I've ever seen.

Especially in such a coveted game.. And oh boy the fanBOYS for this Game are intense, if you say anything about their precious Witcher 3 they'll have an emotional breakdown and meltdown at the same time and get super fucking triggered like they b some random enemy from the actual game lmao, their faces turning as red as the monsters in your minimap while they type very fast while breathing very hard down on their keyboard Cx

So what? There have been plenty of anime lately where they do one cour at the beginning of the year, and another one later in the year. Just off the top of my head, Rewrite comes to mind as one that just had that scenario.

I honestly wonder what they have been doing over the past 4 years.

They already have a solid plotline + artwork is already done - the foundation is pretty much set. Is it really THAT hard to animate a series?

Kabaneri is hardly an excuse, I refuse to believe they spent 4 years investing in that crapfest of a series.
