Doubt it, S2 of Takagi-san was locked to Netflix Japan and we had to wait for fansubs (although they were usually done in around 1-2 days)

Does this mean that on 8th April they start from episode 1 or episode 7? Or they'll release the whole series?

I'm so confused x.x

I would imagine the broadcast would begin from episode 1.

It sucks if broadcast starts from the first episode, 'case in that case we need to wait 2 months for episode 7 :(

That would literally be the worst, but I don't think it's unlikely all the same.

BNA release schedule clarification

Okay it seems like a lot of people are confused on the release schedule for the anime. So I'll help break it down for you.

March 21 - Netflix JP releases the first 6 episodes as a special promotion. This is Japan only because Netflix will be releasing it worldwide in late 2020, like with Beastars. This means NO simulcast or simuldub.

So far, two groups decided to translate the series. AnimacitySubs is the speed sub group and completed all 6 episodes already (what you've probably seen). Asenshi Subs will be doing weekly releases of their subbed episodes.

April 8 - Official premiere of episode 1 on Fuji TV. FujiTV broadcast will start from 1 and do weekly broadcasts. They will NOT continue from where Netflix left off so you'll have to wait ~1.5 months for 7.

Late May - Episode 7 airs.

Late 2020 - Netflix releases BNA worldwide for legal streaming. Until then, there is no way to watch it legally.

Now that's sad. 2 months until episode 7 then..

Also, officially it will only air worldwide months after finishing, just like other Netflix anime..

Netflix is definitely killing the popularity of every single anime

Most of us are guessing it will be a two-cour anime due to the pacing of the show. I doubt it would be a seasonal. It would be weird if Netflix previewed an entire half of the show early.

Therefore, possibly 24 episodes, but there's no way to confirm this.

Its not going to be 2-cour because Great Pretender is taking BNA's place this Summer.

Only watched the first episode and was going to watch the other 5 episodes tonight, but now I'll prefer to watch one per week.

Not necessarily, great pretender is apparently WIT show, and even if it was still trigger, studios sometimes have multiple teams working on multiple projects, so BNA could still be 2 cours

No, I didn't mean it like that. I said that because Great Pretender is taking BNA's place this summer on the airing block it's going to be airing on Japanese TV. (+Ultra, there's only one anime per season airing in this block.)

ahhhh, maybe I can hope BNA could be split cour than, with the second cour airing after the great pretender finishes?

If thats the case the earliest it's going to be airing is Winter 2021 because they already confirmed that Great Pretender will be 23 episodes! Also Beastars which has a second season announced is also from this anime block so that might be the anime taking GP's place for Winter 2021 but that's not confirmed so far.

Highly unlikely hypothesis, but I hear when Netlfix licenses a series, the studio makes back the production budget right off the bat, maybe trigger is taking advantage of that, and hoping to make a franchise out of BNA. I highly doubt it, but weirder things have happened.

Netflix's business model is a terrible fit for anime. It means a lot of hardcore fans resort to piracy and then there is no hype for their shows when they finally come into the platform a half a year later,
