Bummer, but I guess I'm down with it since it's a marathon instead. (I'd wait 'til it was done airing to watch ti anyways.)

I am also bummed by the delay, but I cannot help to wonder if some crazy shit is going on at SHAFT and/or Aniplex. I hope this is only my paranoia, and nothing really terrible is happening.

Big surprise. "production issues". They couldn't get their shit together on the production of both Nisekoi and Mekaku City Actors.
This was entirely expected.

Well it doesn't surprise me that much. I kinda thought they had too much on their plate when I saw they were doing Nisekoi, Mekaku City Actors, and Hanamonogatari all around the same time.
I'm really bummed about this, but I am a patient man, so I think I can wait a little longer. If nothing else, I always enjoy admiring the quality and colors that come from Shaft productions, so if this means that I get to see that without any imperfections that is perfectly fine with me. I'm always one to prefer quality over quantity.

All 5 episodes at once? Even better, be worth the wait.

Like Kizu, it's almost like they have shafted what people were looking forward to. ...Not really shafting but it's certainly a test of patience.

Disappointing, but if I can marathon them it will be worth.

Just wait, I bet AoA is still going to release it streaming one week at a time. They did it with Neko Kuro and that aired as a marathon in Japan too.

They must at least get some of that Madoka pie, right? Guess not, since they seem to be in the same predicament they were in before Madoka or Gatari

It's not a money thing, it's a time thing. Even studios well within their budgets can over-extend themselves.
