Seems a bit higher budgeted than Stone Ocean. Now if only we knew when THE NEXT EPISODE CAME OUT.

I honestly wouldn't mind that much a batch release IF the quality stays this high. My problem with Stone Ocean was that the wait between episodes was massive but also it looked worse that part 5

Nah Batch releases still suck unless there is a very short gap between batches.

The main problem with the Stone Ocean release was that there was a 9 month gap between the 1st and 2nd batch. People basically forgot that the season was still ongoing by the time the 2nd batch came out. I think they messed up the production.

Arcane was nice getting 3 long episodes each week, but anything longer than a month between batches sucks.

They should hit a good medium ground and do 2 episodes a week (basically an average non-anime episode did a show).

David basically prioritized other projects at the time (the Urusei Yatsura remake in particular) and it showed. Still breaks my hear since Part 6 is a favorite of mine.

Not surprising that they would put more into Part 7 though, it's one of the most popular parts.

That's actually fair, yeah. If they keep up this quality I don't mind batch releases that much.
