Damn. Season 2 has been crushing it too, especially with all the epic fight scene animations. Hope they figure things out and give the animators better working conditions.

That’s part of the issue that they’re expected crunch time to be the norm just because they were able to pull it off once.

Just give these guys a break. No big deal if it pauses for a few weeks…

You say that, yet with what MAPPA did with Attack on Titan (taking their time), they got a lot of shit for it. Maybe that’s a more extreme example, but still. Many anime fans don’t seem to be understanding
You can justify maybe up to one year of lag with “we overscheduled, oops”. But twelve months should be plenty of time to clean house and get things sorted out. (WIT Studios were actually the ones doing Attack on Titan when they had the four-year break between seasons 1 and 2, and I don’t approve of them doing it either—however, the reasoning behind it seems to have been marketing-related rather than poor scheduling.)
T’be honest, it looks to me like the management team at MAPPA has bitten off way more than they can chew, and that they’ve been following that pattern for a while. It isn’t a matter of taking their time or not, it’s a matter of not accepting more work than they can actually do.

There’s a difference between pausing for a few weeks and letting four years elapse between seasons.
Oh yeah, definitely, but the reason for it (awful production schedule), is the same
