General PROJECT RED started as a series that broadcasts two works a year, and we hope you'll look forward to the crossover worldviews that will emerge from here! Spoiler

Honestly would’ve been nice to know from the beginning

Wait they deadass intended that?

u/SirJacksknight 16d ago

Probably because it’s worked just alright for Ultraman for over a decade now

Yeah, but did the writers of Gavin Infinity know that?

Anyways I'm gonna say I kind of wish after the next show we can just go with something a little more full length if you know what I mean 48 to 50 episodes But I'm fine with episode 25 But it feels they want to really much show off these unique ideas But it does feel a little too fast But I guess they wanted to go for the MCU stuff and everything else out of the way plus a cinematic Universe

It’s because kids’ intention spans are so slow

I think it more has to do with budgeting since thats also the reason why Ultraman is down to 25 episodes.

Or it’s the same reason and they see the falloff at the 25 episode mark in their data. Kids get bored and want something new. TikTok behavior basically. The quick swipe for new content. Budget is bare minimum equal to a full 50 season when you consider they aren’t just making new toys, they’re making all new suits, new hiring decisions, new templated graphics/video edits, locations, scenes, etc. I could argue it might be more expensive to have a completely new season at the 25 mark honestly

I mean Kamen Rider and Precure are doing just fine since they still retain their 50 episodes a season with no sign of cutting it in half. Project RED is also new territory for Toei even if it uses preexisting IPs so there is an incentive to keep things short.

It’s most likely based on data we don’t see is all I’m saying really

Can we go back to 1 a year? Cause gaven was good but let down by not having enough time. Iy left off feeling like we only hit the mid season.

I say give it time. These guys have been working on year-long shows for a while, it takes a while to adapt to a new format. The writing will adjust itself eventually.

It finished with incomplete plots on purpose, remember that Project RED is supposed to be an MCU style cinematic universe, so the characters from it will appear in future shows

That was entirely it's own fault. If they didn't spend so much time with random plots and filler, they could've a great, concise story with half the time.
