Weekly ranking roundup:
Credit to /u/Abysswatcherbel for making the chart for reddit karma and /u/Nooble5 for the Anime Trending chart.
Dan Da Dan is absolutely undisputed atop the karma chart with Re:Zero having dropped out for the rest of the season. However, this comes as the total karma seems incredibly low for the week at only 15k.
Oh damn, episode 9 in 2 months? Sounds like production issues. That’s unfortunate given the time between each season. Maybe I’ll catch up now then.
I think this release schedule, despite being very weird, was planned. At least I haven’t seen any news about issues with the production or anything like that.
Wait what? That’s odd
It’s White Fox that’s animating it, right? It’s unusual for them to be working on two TV series simultaneously (the other one being Sengoku Youko)—maybe they discovered they’d bitten off more than they could chew before the airing dates for this season of Re: Zero were announced, and so quietly altered the schedule without telling anyone?
