I have a question.
The news/announcements about this, and even other anime websites list this as a 12-episode anime. Why does it show that it will have 18 episodes here, on MAL?

@MSAtlos I think the reason is that the Tv that is broadcasting it will only air 12 episodes, then 6 extra will be streamed on some other platform. I don't know if those 6 episodes are just like the first 12 though. The manga has 113 chapters, so if this anime adapts the whole source, I hope it atleast uses all 18 episodes for it.

Most sites will separate the initial 12 episode and the final 6 but MAL has probably combined them together

@MSAtlos guess I was right. MAL changed it to 12, after the announement about it.
The other 6 are just extras that should count as specials or something.

It was due to confusion over the original announcement about the EX bonus shorts apparently. See here: https://myanimelist.net/forum/?topicid=1846327
