Overview
- Prominent leaker Myamura on X said Goshozono will leave MAPPA after completing Season 3 Part 1, a claim repeated by multiple outlets without studio confirmation.
- Unverified chatter suggests he could act as chief director for Part 2 or move to Illumination, but none of these staffing details have been officially announced.
- Separately, the anime’s official account confirmed a one‑week pause with a recap episode and a new 2:00 a.m. JST slot, a 94‑minute shift due to Olympic broadcasts.
- Crunchyroll’s release window is expected to shift following the new airtime, though the platform has not issued a revised schedule.
- Part 1 is slated to continue through March, and chief animation director Hiromi Niwa framed the break as a timely chance for viewers to catch up before the next episode.
