...are the cours gonna be separated or the status of the season goes from "airing" to "on hold"/"hiatus"? I'm confused about that caused the BD are named for season 3.

@Stark700 You're the only boss around here that I know so explain, please...

That's a good question, would honestly rather both cours being in season 3, this would also make the rating better overall for season 3, because these 2 cour fit nicely together as one rather than being separate seasons.

Or we could end up with a really, really high rating for S4 if it's split?

It's weird since they showed us the sea and Eren's long hair in the episode 1 of this season. So I assumed it's gonna continue this fall.

It will have a new entry just like every other Split cour show. It is all but confirmed to be split cour, TV guides aren’t listing any episodes after episode 12 on October 7th and Crunchyroll doesn’t have it listed as a continuing simulcast for the Fall season.

I really hope so! Let's pray for 24 episodes without split-cour.

I'm really hoping it doesn't, but who knows. It wouldn't be the end of the world, but it'd feel awkward starting this new arc and not finishing it. Oh man, this season has been so fucking good and if they went with the full 24 episodes, it'd be spectacular.

Yonko said it'd be 24 episodes, but I don't really trust him, seems to be pretty hit or miss.

We'll know soon enough in the next couple of weeks though. I do hate being in limbo like this, I wish they'd just confirm it from the beginning.

According to official sources and pkjd, it's not a split cour. Continuation even though we don't know the exact amount of episodes.

My guess is still around 24.

pkjd is just saying that there will be an episode next week, which is expected since there is one episode left for this cour. There is nothing about the length of the season.

Ah. I see, I read that wrong.

After seeing this schedule:

It may be still be a split cour. We'll find out for sure after episode 12.

the silence about the split cour speculation isn't a good sign.. if its a 2 cour i'm sure the official Japanese account would confirm it since the Japanese fans started this speculation in the first place

even though its a stretch but i really hope that this whole ordeal is just a simple one week break between seasons just like the case with Banana Fish and Satsuriku no Tenshi and other 2 cour animes that's currently airing

But if ends up being split cour will this season be split on MAL or kept together Stark700? SAO 3 is also doing a break between courses apparently. I think you guys should introduce the ''Hiatus'' state on MAL and stop split seasons.

It's not really a matter of having enough material, but being able to make deadlines. Wit can't pump out anime as fast as, say, A1.

You actually think the next arc is already completed? That is not how anime production usually works. There are exceptions like SSSS.Gridman but most shows aren't like that.

Anime productions are almost never finished while the anime is airing, that's why it's such a hellish job time-wise. In some cases, some finishing touches can be even done few days before the episode airs.

You're being very generous with a few days. It's not unheard of that episodes are finished hours before they are supposed to air. That's also why sometimes different TV-Stations or simulcasting websites end up with different versions of the same episode.

I mean if you want to call it Season 4 when on paper it is Season 3 Cour 2 then be our guest. Just don't be surprised when you will get corrected every other time ( to your annoyance ) making it the topic of most conversation you will have about it.

Season 5. Obviously.

But now being honest, I think it's a lack of respect on the part of the studio to separate these two parts for 6 months instead of 3 and still call it season 3. People are now in a fucking anxiety for nothing. If they called it Season 4, people would be far more okay with it.

This is a joke... What was the point in announcing the season is going to be 24 episodes long then?
This 6 months break feels more like a break between the actual seasons rather than just being a split cour...

IIRC, anime isn't announced as seasons, only cours. "Seasons" was a term applied to anime by Westerners. Seasons are a continuous set of episodes, while cours are only 12 or 13.

Aldnoah.Zero was two cours, with it's second cour arriving three months after the first, and yet it's listed as being two separate seasons on MAL. Same with Fate/Stay Night: Unlimited Blade Works.

So the next set of AoT episodes coming out in April would actually be the fifth cour.

Oh seasons do exist in japanese anime productions. It's quite simple actually.

You have a new season as soon as the production committee for a new season is formed. In this case this is still one season but simply split in two parts ( also called split cour ) for several reasons.
