Quick update regarding the average runtime for episodes of the upcoming Uzumaki anime! According to this article from IGN, it seems like The runtime for episodes of the Uzumaki will be the traditional 23 to 25 minutes in length. Many people, including myself expected The episodes to have a longer runtime since the show is being broadcast in a rare 45 minute time-slot on Adult Swim! But based on what is being said in some of the early reviews from the press, that is not the case! https://www.ign.com/articles/uzumaki-review-adult-swim

so 4 episodes of 23 to 25 mns...too short. Then again, the manga has 19 ch only. Why not make a movie instead?

I’m sure they can pull it off. I heard Junji Ito himself I think is involved in this project.

I have seen the episode 1, it was roughly 22 minutes long...Awsome animation and music but rushed to the oblivion to the point they killed the build up and it was weridly experimental with its chapter mixing as they are trying to squeez everything under 4 short episodes ...

Ovarall, it was a well animated gorefest without understanding what made Uzumaki great in first place, manga fans are gonna be pissed when it drops...

No, only episode 1 is the traditional episode length.

We already got confirmation via Toonami's social media that episodes 2 and 4 would be extended. (Episode 2 will be 37 minutes with commercials.)

Adult Swim's schedule also confirms episode 3 will be extended as well (45 minutes with commercials).

Perhaps it’s not best to judge the entire anime based off of the first episode because there are some people who have been telling me that the next three episodes are longer!

It's not just random people saying it. The TV network that's airing the show (aka Adult Swim) has said as much. I posted a couple links just above your post that show the network's announced schedule. The first link shows the announced schedule for episodes 1, 2, and 3. The second link shows the announced schedule for episode 4.

Agreed, Uzumaki is one of my favorite Junji Ito stories so i’d hate to see it get another bad adaptation!

We’ll see! Apparently the 23 minute runtime might only apply to the first episode. It seems like episodes 3 and 4 specifically might be longer at this point we’ll just have to wait and see!
