Oh, so that's how they're gonna sell this.
How many projects did Aniplex unveil last week at AnimeJapan again? More than five?
And now this. Damn. Just hope they know how to manage those.

"How many of you like Tokyo Revengers?" ... "Great! Now how many of you wish it had good animation?"

Not to be confused with Wind Breaker, the (very good) cycling manhwa by Yongseok Jo.

"Aniplex" and "knowing how to manage projects" hardly belong in the same sentence. Let's count how many shows with Aniplex involvement have been delayed during the past several months because of running on chronically mismanaged crunch schedules:
* NieR Automata (A-1, postponed multiple times).
* Ayakashi Triangle (Connect, moved from winter to spring).
* UniteUp (CloverWorks, postponed multiple times).
* Maou Gakuin S2 (Silver Link, moved from winter to summer).
* Shiro Seijo to Kuro Bokushi (Doga Kobo, moved from spring to summer).
* Fate/strange Fake (A-1, a single episode postponed by half a year, lol).
And before that, there were other postponements due to production issues like with the most recent SAO movie. Wouldn't be surprised if Mashle got postponed mid-season or something as well. Aniplex and its main production workhorse A-1 can't manage for shit and always end up taking up more projects than they can deliver without major drops in quality in at least some of them.

Fate/strange Fake is a tv movie. UniteUp is still airing, as it recently just aired its 9th episode, it's set to end in April. The Misfit of Demon King Academy and Ayakashi Triangle weren't "moved" they were aired during the season until they reached a certain number of episodes, they are going to restart airing both series in their respective seasons.

So is he a delinquent because he farts a lot? Is that why it is called "wind breaker"? As in...he breaks wind? You know...farting?

So how does that purely semantic argument change the fact that all of these have experienced production issues that caused delays in every single case? I hope you aren't trying to say the delays were part of the plan.

Well, I'm glad I wasn't the only person thinking that!

I'm not arguing with you. I'm correcting you.

Seems like Aniplex is trying to be like Kadokawa and take on too many projects at once, although unlike Kadokawa they seem to be overwhelmed by the amount of titles they’re trying to put out.

Me three! And yeah, yeah, we got it...That cover art camera angle even suggests the possibility so I'll bet someone in the manga department thought the same...

You guys all know that a "wind breaker" is a type of jacket, right? Sure, farting can be called "breaking wind", but I have literally never heard of anyone who farts being called a "wind breaker", mainly because that's what some jackets are called.

Good news! It is similar to Tokyo Revengers without the time travel, so I will watch it!
