delay of the 24th episode. His tweets are translated as follows:

There are a lot of insensitive tweets from people who don't know the production situation. The outsourced animation on multiple episodes completely broke down, and Millepensee had to redo it all from scratch. The staff ended up being too busy for the later episodes that were set aside for them, which is a large reason for the poor quality. The staff are quite literally killing themselves to deal with this. Please be patient with the delay...

I do agree with the sentiment that regardless of the situation at the studio, what ultimately matters is what gets broadcasted. No matter what the reason, missing the broadcast is heavily frowned upon. But I made this tweet because I just wanted people to know that my friends' studio is battling desperately for the sake of this anime. And the people who are slinging insults won't stop until someone takes their own life.

The episode was originally slated to air last Friday. The official website for the anime announced last Thursday that the staff is delaying the 24th episode due to production issues. The episode has been rescheduled for Saturday.

The anime premiered on January 8. It was previously slated to premiere last year, but the new coronavirus disease (COVID-19) greatly affected the anime's production schedule.
