I used to think there would be 24 episodes, or that after the 12 episodes there would be two more movies.

But after watching this image on the trailer,



it seems like they're going to adapt everything. If the leaks are true and there are only 12 episodes left... how are they going to do it?

P.S. Don't say there are too many fights. On average, they have to adapt 7.3 episodes. And the last few are full of infodumps.

Its so sad. The pace with 16 episodes or only one movie is good. But if its only 12 they will skip things

my guess is there's a final movie at the end that'll adapt the remaining chapters otherwise we're cooked fr

@DioBrando_69420 I thought that, but the image on spoilers of the first post is from the very very end of the manga (it should be in the hypothetical movie)

i mean it's possible that this "part 2" will end up being a 24 episode part or something. shows like Gachiakuta or Witch Watch are considered 1 part despite having 24 episodes so it could be possible. although that could just be MAL considering consecutive parts in a season as 1 entry. regardless it's a possibility.

I dont like having unrealistic expectations for example the 2nd part being twice as long as the first even though it was originally announced to be a split Cour (So Part 1 is 12 eps and Part 2 is 12 more).

But it's genuinely baffling why they'd go with a regular pace for Part 1 and suddenly slam on the gas for the 2nd Part, even though at that point they'd already be aware that they're finishing it on the 2nd. So there's still a part of me that believes we're not seeing the whole picture here.

Another clue is both PVs for Part 2 having mostly clips from the first 4-5 volumes of the 10 volumes we have left (with the exception of like 2 clips that have gotten me worried. If you're a manga reader you know.)

When Season 3 was announced, people were talking about 36 episodes in split parts.
Part 1 had 12 episodes, maybe part 2 will have 24.
Is everyone assuming it will be one cours because it's how split parts usually go?

@GeorgeKen23
On one hand we have:
- DP adapted the first cour with a regular pace. It doesn't make sense to adapt the first cour well and then second cour skip everything and go at Tokio Ghoul Pace
-It is confirmed for the people who watch the preview that the first episode adapted only 4 chapters and a few pages more (good pacing)
-DP always knows what they are doing. They adapted really well JoJo, Kaiju and all of Fire Force until now. I WANT TO TRUST THEM

But on the other hand we have:
- The leaks said that this cour is going to be only 12-13 episodes
- @KANLen09 (the only person on the internet who saw the second episode) said that the second episode adapted a complete fight that lasts a total of 9 chapters. Take that with a grain of salt.
- The trailer show someone who should appear on the final episodes, so it is 99% confirmed that this season is going to be the last.

12 episodes or 24? The time will tell us

88 chapters divided by 13 episodes is around 6 chapters per episode very doable but they may cut dialogues

if they end up skipping a lot of chapters that would be one of the biggest fall offs of all time on anime i hope the episodes are either longer than average or make a final movie

Leaks can always be trusted. It's not like some random person would just start a rumor that people take as fact and spread it like wildfire.

@deg Considering Part 1 had 12 episodes and it's a split cour, it's way more likely that Part 2 is also 12 episodes. Meaning its closer to 7,5 chapters per episode.

Which is definitely not feasible without some massive cuts, it's twice the amount of chapters that Part 1 had to adapt. Which brings me back to my earlier question about why they'd go out of their way to adapt Part 1 nearly 1:1 (with some changes in the order of events) even though Part 2 is much more important to adapt correctly. The animation even looks like a step up from P1, so they're aware of how important it is.

It is confirmed that the first chapter adapts 4 chapters, so:
88-4=84

If this cour is 13 episodes (13-the first episode=12)

84/12=7 chapters per episode

@deg The only person on the entire internet who has commented on the second episode is @KANLen09. He described the episode very vaguely, as if it were a riddle. We don't know exactly what has been adapted in episode 2.
There are theories that the episode 2 adapted the entire fight, but skipped things that can be rearranged in later episodes (as cour 1 did).

We are waiting for @KANLen09 to answer our questions

@Varete7 I found another article regarding the fight that is also vague. I understand not wanting to spoil anything but at least give more than what sounds like a marketing article. They're not really opinions but rather describing what they saw.

Here is the Link.

@Itz_Milkk You know what? I think even that article copied the episode description written by KANLen09

Well, it looks like the keen people wanted to see what I saw, and more than redirecting spoilers away from the episode discussion, it's here on at your own risk (but will keep it as minimal as possible to avoid the anticipation for the anime coming in only less than a month away):

@Varete7 220-229 is actually 10 chapters which is even more insane haha. And the other insane thing is Episode 1 apparently adapting only 3 chapters? (Though these 3 are QUITE wordy). Im not sure what's up with the pacing, but Im assuming we're going to be experiencing the events of the manga in a very different way. They'll be moving things around even more than Part 1 did.

@GeorgeKen23 I have to reread the chapters to see what can be rearranged and what can be skipped and totally skippable without affecting the plot

There's still hope that they're saving THAT for something that isn't in cour 2. Remember how they teased the sister Sumire scene in s3 cour 1's first trailer even though it wouldn't be shown in cour 1? I know what I'm saying is a stretch but it's not entirely out of the picture.

@Arizashi Yes, that's my hope too.
The only thing that scares me is adapting 10 chapters of the manga into a single episode (Episode 2 according to those who saw the preview).
