5-toubun no Hanayome (The Quintessential Quintuplets) Season 2 Anticipation

[Frontier]

The second season will premier in October with new director and studio.

Director: Kaori
Series Composition: Keiichirou Ohchi
Production: Bibury Animation Studios

[Nachtwandler]

That was unexpected.

[bastek66]

Wasn't it suppose to air next season? What the fuck happen.
Anyway last 20-30 chapters were awful that hype should be dead when new season starts.
I'm still wondering how they will pull out scenes where all girls are wearing Itsuki hairstyle wigs. In manga it's easy with monochrome and no sound.

[WingedAccelerator]

Winter never officially got confirmed, people just assumed it being the case, since it got announced last May. Then Spring and Summer were never confirmed as well. It changed studio, so maybe that's the reason for this huge delay.

They look cuter now.

Some of them are really good at imitating the others' voices. The relevant part in that arc, when the viewers should be in the dark are thankfully done by a seiyuu like that. But if that doesn't work, they can always mash the 5 voices together or mute the dialogue and use subs, like they have used for the Bride.

On the other hand, our dear Rena is not really good at imitating others based on Season 1. I have seen this idea that they should hire a seiyuu for that role alone to not give it away, even though Negi's promotional art gives it away...

And there is that "character development" appearance scene as well in Seven Goodbyes.

I wonder if they'll try to reach the ending, maybe skipping some parts in the middle.

I've seen some speculation they might do it now that the manga is over, but I think that would make for a disaster of an adaption.

Azur Lane's studio is in charge. I have no idea what that series is about, but the last two episodes are delayed to March from the Fall 2019 season, because of production issues. I see a lot of QUALITY comments.

But let's say that they are miraculously will be capable of doing a 24 episodes series and 5toubun gets a full adaptation. It won't be THAT rushed, but will require adapting more than 3.5 half chapters per episode.

Skipping some parts are not really the issue here, but how the adaptation only will highlight the issues of the manga in the potential second cour. What we need is rewriting. Either pander to the intended winner by making it way more obvious or pander to someone else and go for an anime original ending.

At best, because of how popular the series is (or was) I can see them getting a 2-cour, though with this studio it would very likely be split up.

Probably the best chance of adapting the whole story to any satisfactory extent.

Summer seems to be confirmed in the last PV. The Winter was just a leak that never got confirmed.

[WingedAccelerator]

What PV? As far as I'm aware, there was an unconfirmed, unoffical tweet saying Summer that got deleted. There was no PV at all,outside of the 2nd season confirmation from last May. The prostitute manga's adaptation got confirmed for Summer ages ago.

[Marcus H.]

Is it possible that the series might have been greenlit for an earlier season if not for this change in studio?

That never worked. It was always easy to tell who was who from the voices in season 1. Hopefully this time the director will be less dumb and actually switch the seiyuus when necessary. That's the easiest and most effective solution.

[WingedAccelerator]

Only for seiyuu fanatics.
Surprisingly enough, I have seen a lot of people, casual watcher getting fooled by the ski trip disguise, even though that had another giveaway besides the voice acting. Miku's Yotsuba impression was good, but it was not a mystery for the viewer. Nino's Itsuki impression was also good enough in my opinion. I would rather appreciate a hair color palette swap JoJo style, when they are disguising. For the crucial disguisings, some voice swaps.

[Chosen_Hero]

Spoiler for Not exactly a spoiler but just in case:

Not suffering through this bs all over again, let me know if the studio and director nuts up and goes anime original and gives Negi the middle finger, maybe then I will have some sort of respect for someone connected to this garbage.

Too cutesy artstyle for my taste.

I actually like the new artstyle. I hope this translates well to the actual anime .

(Yotsuba's hair looks a little longer?)

[Kanon]

I like this artstyle too. Of course, it means nothing if the season is full of QUALITY like S1.
