Not really, there weren't a lot of good shows slated for 2020 before the pandemic hit. 2019 wasn't great either. Maybe there would've been some announced in the middle of the year (if covid wasn't a thing); I do think some shows that were supposed to come out this year have been pushed back to 2021, so there's that. I follow ongoings very closely so I would've known right away if a show was scheduled for this year back in 2019.

Partially? Lol, if it weren't for the pandemic, by now we would have already received twice as many hits as this year has received now as a whole.

Sequels Oregairu, ReZero, Mahouka, SAO, Danmachi, Higurashi and postponed shows like Neverlend's sequel, are they just nonsense to you?

nah 2020 was a bust. Not a lot of great shows, and yes, Covid was partly to blame.

If the second season, like the first, will be adapted by P.A. Works, then why not? I won't say that I'm a huge fan of the franchise, but how well these guys adapted the original material gives me high hopes for the second season too.
Hopefully the sequel will cover more girls than the rather intimate original anime.
I won't say that the original anime was a masterpiece, but already 2020 could be great for an anime, if not for the fucking COVID.
It was actually quite funny. The original video game teased with a lesbian kiss and the first manga was full of fanservice, but in the end PA's guys had to completely restart the franchise to make it more family-friendly for the owners of the rights.
Ahaha, real men know how to prioritize lol.

Oof, 2021 is shaping up to be an even bigger year for anime than 2017/2018 were. Can't wait. Really enjoyed the first season of this.

Could it be that they are building the hype to actually finally release the damn game? It's been 4,5 (four and a half) years since the first PV!

First, a sequel for Princess Connect Re:Dive and now this? That makes 2 unexpected sequel announcements for this year.
This show is one of my guilty pleasures though so I don't mind.

Does anyone knows if it's P.A. Works that's adapting the second season or will it be Cygames Pictures or another company?:o
Sep 22, 2020 4:19 PM by Klefki_of_Awsome
I absolutely hated season 1. Biggest disappointment from PA Works so far for me. Glad for those of you that liked it, though, but I'll be passing this one by.
