Does anyone have any idea when the next epiosode would air?
As previously it was told to be on hiatus
Already it had delayed episodes multiple times but this time it's indefinite

And what the deal with Bug Films?
Any idea why they are delaying it again and again?

They are a new studio and have complained about the conditions of the last studio most the staff worked at(OLM) so I assume they are taking there time with a adaptation and so the animators can get there rest. But because of that they lost there time slot to another anime airing in the up and coming season(4 knights of the apocalypse)

They’re having a hard time finding an allocated time slot for the episodes to broadcast in Japan.
The previous postponed dates must have made it harder for them to get later slots. Seeing as the Japanese are very organized and every show has its own schedule fit in with others, it makes sense.
Best they can do is let the episodes air on other platforms like crunchy roll, Netflix…. Or wait till they get a time slot, which might take very long.

This is most likely the Nier anime adaptation situation all over again. Got delayed too many times and lost it’s airing slot. It’ll probably be 5 to 6 months before we get the next ep. I hope this ages poorly and we get it sooner rather than later. The animators seem to put a lot of passion into this anime.

Bug films is a studio comprised almost entirely of big name animators however there aren’t very many of them (one source said that there was less than 30 in the entire studio though I don’t know the credibility of that). On top of this the show has a very ambitious director who wants nothing but the best and no cut corners. And since they don’t have enough staff to keep up with the high quality demanded it leads to a lot of delays. And to top it off their having some scheduling issues with their time slot being taken by sports broadcast and such back in Japan.

It could be really nice because the anime was well received by the community. They should prepare the 2nd season and broadcast the missing episodes with it

Man, some people on the replies are reaaaally naïve about the whole situation, lmao. These episodes aren't being delayed because of Bugfilms being "benevolent" enough to let their staff actually do everything smoothly or anything along those lines, it's literally the opposite happening. The last three episodes are delayed indefinitly because they literally ran out of timeslots to air the anime, as a result of the continuous delays. It's clear with the fact that the recent episodes kept getting one-day delays on streaming, because they couldn't affort to delay episodes anymore, but kept missing the deadlines to deliver episodes to streaming and likely just barely managing to deliver them to TV on time.

It's the result of the reckless approach to the production taken by Bugfilms' leaders - specifically the director Kazuki Kawagoe, and specially it's founder and animation producer Hiroaki Kojima - that fucked the production.

Twin Engine's site states that by December, Bugfilms only has 21 employees overall. And if I had to guess, most of these are probably animators instead of management roles like production assistants and/or desks, so while there were directors and animators to make things great, there was probably very little on the management side to keep that level of production stable. Kojima's approach to production at OLM was very reckless, and you can look at Komi and Summertime Render to see that, as both had a shitload of outsourced episodes just to keep themselves "surviving", to the point where Komi-san had more outsourced episodes than in-house ones. On the other hand, Zom100 has no fully outsourced episodes, but it did have Shaft credited for production assistance... only for them to leave a few episodes in.

No idea since they delayed it before and the new season is already here. If anything, I'd say they might take a while until the last 3 episodes of this current season release.

ppl talking about this anime "loosing it's time slot" etc, why thou? If the anime was really popular/selling a sh!t ton of merch it wouldn't be loosing no time slot on tv, that's for sure. So this project ain't that popular over there after all.

@Dawizz Time slots are bought months in advance. Anime doesn't work like western cartoons where producers can just cancel a show at any time they want if they deem it not worth it enough, these slots are set in stone. What happened is that the constant week delays during the earlier episodes caused the anime to run out of the slots it had, and again, these slots are bought in advance, and another anime (Shangri-La Frontier) already had these slots filled out, so they have nowhere to air these episodes for now.

The studio is supposed to close. Apparently, their old ugly bald bastard boss used female employees for sexy time and abused the staff so nobody wants to work there anymore - thus problems producing anime.

It's frustrating because it's so hard to enjoy this anime when you gotta wait 2-3 weeks to watch the next episode. and now being on hiatus? rip. Was genuinely my favourite anime of the season.

To be honest i have mad respect for that decision, even more considering the theme of their first anime, but that being said the only viable publish method they really have is relying on streaming services first and forget about tv (plus it can be published globally).
If they gave us those high quality episodes every two weeks or pause a whole month between two animes instead of sticking to cour seasons I'm 100% in, the quality and their health is worth it.

I just don't get why they don't just air the rest of it on streaming and move on, is Cable TV really that important in Japan? Even if they do get to air the rest of it on TV months from now it probably won't be worth even the cost of the slots since it's just the last 3 episodes of an anime that has so far deterioted in quality and burned the good-will of everyone who bothered to watch it weekly.

Season 2? What are the chances the producers or anyone else will want to fund a second season of this? At least one made by the same studio, given how much of a clusterfuck it's been, not to mention the manga isn't the type of story that can carry a show on it's own so a large portion of what made the early episodes good was the voice acting and the animation.

It's kinda of a shame, really. But that's to be expected from television broadcasts with anime shows airing.

That's not to say that the anime was worth watching, though. I personally found the anime pretty dull and generic even for a zombie themed manga-based anime series. Yes, the production is amazing, but that doesn't mean the story and the characters are guaranteed to be just as good as the production of the anime. But i'll just wait until things get resolved with this anime and then give it a second chance from the beginning to see if my opinion does change or not.

@Diogo_Gomes_1995 It's such a shame really, the first episode dropped so hard it became one of the most talked-about things of the season, even if you look at it in retrospect and ignore the production issues it's not even a note-worthy show, you can excuse the manga for being silly because for it's format it's never boring or anything but the anime pretty much competently adapts 1:1 most of the manga but never does enough to be worth your time. If anything the first episode was a great ad for the manga.
