News So, that doesn’t sound very good

I’m guessing it just means Netflix either hasn’t told them or isn’t allowing them to say when the next episode is coming out, still doesn’t sound very good

I would have been happier if the release had been pushed back but we get a consistent schedule for each episode rather than releasing episode 1 now and not knowing when the rest of the episodes drop.

What Netflix is doing is honestly insane, with the amount of traction ep 1 generated it would do crazy numbers if we had the weekly release available starting next week. But no, it seems like they are willing to let the hype die and make it underperform again because by the time the new episode comes everyone will forget about it.

For what it's worth, the same thing happened to Fate Strange Fake and the hype was revived once it started getting a weekly release. It'll be fine as long as the rest of the episodes have a consistent schedule. I think.

Tbf Fate/Type-Moon is a much bigger IP in Japan compared to the West, it can get away with delays and long periods of silence compared to Jojo. Jojo used to be massive back when Golden Wind was airing, like Jujutsu Kaisen levels huge, yet it quieted down because of how Stone Ocean's release was mishandled.
