It is almost rare for shows to go on production hiatuses once the airing has commenced. In most cases, backlash and widespread criticism are the common reasons why shows go under the scissors. Quite recently, World Ends Harem went on a long-term production break. It was sighted that the show needed to be re-animated from scratch. A similar response can be seen in the case of 86 Eighty-Six Episode 18. However, this break has a short deadline. Here is all you need to know about the production delay in the release of 86 Eighty-Six.
The second cour of 86 Eighty-Six Season 1 began airing on October 2, 2021. Much like the first part, the second installment is also performing quite well on the weekly charts. However, fans are distressed about production updates that the makers just dropped. If the second cour is, in fact, under production, then the timely schedule gets disrupted multiple times. Let’s look at what the makers have to say about this.
86 Eighty-Six Episode 18: Delayed Release
The official Twitter account of 86 Eighty-Six revealed on Sunday that the upcoming episode would not make it to the floors next week. The update revealed that 86 Eighty-Six Episode 18 was going to be on a hiatus. It was also mentioned that a special “visual commentary” program would air in that slot. The special program will include the cast members of the show. Thus, fans of the series can still tune in to the television to enjoy the additional perks.
What Are The Production Issues?
While the definite reason behind the abrupt delay was not mentioned in the update, it was revealed that the hiatus would not last longer than a week. The makers revealed that the show was facing some “production issues” that would be resolved by next week. However, fans find it strange that 86 Eighty-Six Episode 18 is facing production issues during the airtime.
Most of the shows tend to complete production months before the actual release time. Thus, it seems like the 86 Eighty-Six anime series is facing some last-minute animation changes. Most mangas operate on a similar structure. However, anime is structured in a much-organized manner. If production or animation is currently undergoing, then fans can expect more such hiatuses in the future.
86 Eighty-Six Episode 18: New Release Date
86 Eighty-Six Episode 18 was originally scheduled to release on November 13, 2021. However, the episode will be on a one-week break. Thus, the new release date of the episode is November 20, 2021. Fans will find all the episodes of the series on Crunchyroll. Additionally, the makers have announced beforehand that there will be no new episode on December 11, 2021. This is because of the pre-decided airing of a special program. Thus, fans can mark a break on this day as well. In case of a further delay, we will be sure to update this section. Stay tuned for more.
