At some point, I was hoping to see an article;
"Zom 100: Bucket List of the Dead Anime's nth Episode to Air at Scheduled Time on All Streaming Services". Then it would be an article worth making note of.

I feel so bad for the production of this show.
It has been great, but a lot of people will remember the delays over the quality of the episodes. (Similar to Isekai Ojisan)

Yea it really is unfortunate because like you said it’s an awesome show but at this point it seems it’s going to have more of a reputation for its delays rather than its quality.

The latest episode got me back since they removed that dumb "brainwashed afraid" Akira had in two episode in favor of Akira D. Luffy so honestly I'm not gonna complain again.

Yeah, this is literally just Isekai Ojisan all over again. Both made by relatively new stablished studios founded by skilled producers with plenty of great artists on board, but ended up being chaotic in one way or another, and ended up having constant delays and very long waiting times for their final episodes.

Bruh can't these guys just say it's airing on Mondays from here on out? It's not that hard.

Since it airs regularly on TV, it's not a production issue, but rather a distribution issue. So don't blame the studio.

It's very much a production issue. Streaming services have to recieve episodes earlier than the TV broadcast for the sake of encoding and translation/subtitling, so the fact that they keep consistently delaying the streaming releases, even by a singular day, shows how they're more than likely just barely making the deadline for TV releases while missing the streaming ones. Specially since they couldn't afford to delay the most recent episodes, as they have already run out of time slots.

It supposed to stream earlier than the TV broadcast.

There's no way they are STILL having distribution issues beyond the first delay. Episodes are being worked on literally a couple of hours before they are to be broadcast on TV.

I had the exact same thought. Come on, let's stop pretending that this is ever going to stream on a Sunday.

I don't really care about them meeting the exact deadlines; honestly, kind of wish they'd just insert a full multi-week delay -- their staff must be crazy overworked and stressed out right now. I imagine that would be financially complicated though, and most fans would not be very forgiving.

Failing that, just saying "Yeah it's a Mondays" show now, like Eddy2 and Blood- said, would make more sense. It's not even a large schedule change, and they seem to have mostly been hitting it lately?

I'm not watching this show (so maybe that's why I can say this) but man I'd love for them to just delay it a few weeks so they can get everything in order and so the staff can hopefully get a break. Clearly there's something wrong with the process here; they need to take some time out to fix it...

As stated before in this thread, they can't delay anymore, as this is also airing on tv and that would mean losing their timeslots, which are bought months in advance, they'd wind up with a situation like the 86 anime, where they'd have to buy slots at the end of the next season to get the final episodes out.

Yeah, I saw this mentioned above. It is one of the things I had in mind with "...would be financially complicated...".

I'm not surprised but I feel bad for the studio.
