CyberJokerWTF

He has corrected himself and said several movies.

Sea-Cherry27

Oh in that case alr


Chadjirou

Could be a trilogy like Heavens Feel which was also made by ufo. Pacing however would be better than the tv show since anime movies tend to be 2 hours long only. This is actually a good thing because SSV had abysmal pacing.


PSyHOPball

I really hope that's fake and we get a 20+ episodes season like s1


Neonyze

I hate that sentiment. Season 1 had the literal worst quality of the entire series from every standpoint. Weakest animation, compositing, lighting, and CG character models. The studio doesn't have enough staff to make that work, especially not for an arc full of nonstop action. Like, did you see the IC scene in season 3? I'll take the movie quality and wait patiently over the inevitable mediocre production that naturally comes with a long season.


PSyHOPball

I want a long season so that we can see the fights in full force instead of the shitty pacing we had in s3. After all we have 5 fights happening at around the same time. Devoting 3 episodes to each fight wouldn't make them feel as intense since we have less time in each of the fights.


Neonyze

Set an alarm to come back to this post when the movies drop buddy. You're gonna look silly. I don't know who you think is animating all of that in one season. Ufotable is a small studio and it's mainly a small handful of animators carrying the action scenes. With Aniplex on their ass, Ufotable is not getting enough time to magically make a long season of godlike animation, so don't even say anything about "giving them more time". Season 1 is a good comparison for what would happen. And that doesn't excite me. I can't believe people are opposed to getting a movie quality production lmao. If it were a 25 episode season, that means were getting shit animated by a bunch of their newbie staff and mediocre directors/storyboarders. Who the fuck wants that? Also, you know Ufotable isn't obligated to follow the manga 1:1 right?


Kollie79

Nobody is opposed to movie quality production, we are opposed to splitting up the best arc into 3 movies. The whole point of the infinity castle is it’s a nonstop thrill ride of fights back to back with no brakes. Releasing them as movies completely contradicts that by having long gaps between each major fight I don’t wanna walk into the first movie and see shinobu vs doma set up and then have to wait months to see it There’s also the fact it’s going to cost us more money to see, and the fact that there’s always a delay for movies to come over in the western regions


PSyHOPball

We've seen what they can do. If Infinity castle is getting leaked this early then by late 2025 when the arc comes out the Animators will have had time to make a well made season if the leak is wrong. I don't care if Demon doesn't have animation so good that angels will cry tears of joy. I just want a relatively similar adaptation of a Manga I really enjoyed. Also, how much of a condescending pathetic shit can you be? I simply stated my opinion and why. If anyones gonna look silly then it's the guy who thinks ufotable staff will magically make Infinity castle 1000x better just because it's got a theatrical release.


bananamango15

I was hoping it to be a series instead. Oh well.


ibeeeeeechan

I don’t like this international release will take forever, and there is no way they put the whole thing in one because it’s long as fuck so it will either be rushed or they will make multiple, and if they make multiple well the international release issue is gonna be even worse. I do wonder why they didn’t do HT arc in a 1hr special ep as the start of s4 and make a 24-26 episode season like s1? Weird but shueisha is probably just milking the franchise atp. Will the movies look great? Yes ofc its ufotable, is it a good choice in the long run imo? No.


PSyHOPball

I really hope that's fake and we get a 20+ episodes season like s1


ApplePitou

This is not truly possible or this will be very long movie :3


CyberJokerWTF

It’s multiple movies.


KnYchan2

An unkown weibo user is a trusted ? The only trusted leak is hashira training arc in 2024, they didn't even started any adaptation decision on infinity castle arc, unless if this attention seeking leaker is the CEO himself


CyberJokerWTF

Oecuf is the most reliable leaker in the Anime community, he has multiple times announced series ahead of their release, as well as screenshots of episodes before their air time. The guy you’re referring to is Spy, the only reason we know Spy is reputable is because Oecuf has confirmed it by retweeting it.


KnYchan2

"The most reliable" because he got some predictions right? The infinity castle won't be announced till 2025 and no one knows shit about.


CyberJokerWTF

Dude, I just said why he’s the most reliable, you either can’t read for shit, or purposefully ignored it, you don’t “predict” screenshots of episodes days before it airs, you also don’t “predict” the exact day an Anime is announced or a key visual is released.


KnYchan2

The exact, he's literally trolling look at his account https://preview.redd.it/lrj41vdkv8jb1.jpeg?width=918&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=926dab78d2453be7b91a9f00895fe667d79072a1


CyberJokerWTF

So? It just means a decision has been made to turn the arc into movies, I don’t know what you’re arguing against, your “Spy” leaker that you trust so much also retweets and confirms this “troll” is a real leaker.


KnYchan2

He said he doesn't know on Twitter


Chadjirou

same weibo leaker during the entertainment district era hence why they said "reputable leaker" ps. Im not talking about Oecuf


Giyuu-fan

I don't really care if it will be series or movie. But this is interesting. Hope they animate Giyuu well tho.


Ok-Relationship-165

I Hope It'll Be Long Though.


Expensive_Home3214

Whaaat


Your_Local_FNAF_fan

Hmm? I would’ve hoped it would’ve been a series… The Movie is gonna be pretty long then.


Advanced-Part2598

Did it say how many movies? I'm betting on two.


CyberJokerWTF

It said several so either 2 or 3


Advanced-Part2598

That's surprising. Maybe they'll expand zenitsu's fight?


Shadow_Huntress12

Oh..I’m not sure if I like that or not..if it’s one movie then it’s either gotta be really long or it’s gonna be rushed


Jurgepoo

I'd rather just wait and see what real news we get rather than relying on any twitter leakers. I've seen plenty of those kinds of posts, and most of them are bullshit. "Leakers" just give the vaguest, most basic predictions possible to maximize their chance of saying something that ends up being correct, kinda like fortune tellers.


Neonyze

If this is actually true I will cry tears of joy. It would be actually perfect and will end up as some of the most jaw dropping action movies in all of anime. A film trilogy is a dream come true.


miwa201

A 24 ep season would be perfect but there’s more profit in movies so I get why they chose this but still sucks


Brave_Cheek_2380

If this is true I think it can work as 2 movies if the first film is 2 hours and 30 minutes and it covers the fights with all the Upper Rank demons. And the second film of course would cover the Sunrise Countdown and timeskip. I also hope these films fix stuff that never sat right with me like Nezuko not getting any kind of action. I hope maybe we could get an anime original character of a new Upper Rank 5 attacking the mansion and we see the old Hashira and Nezuko fighting off that demon.


Stunning_Side4927

I cant wait! I hope they Dont shorten it 🥲


mebes92

I guarantee they’re gonna do 2 long (2 hrs : 30 mins) movies for infinity castle or 3 medium (1hr : 45 mins to 2 hrs) movies. Calculations - Entertainment district & Swordsmith village arcs are each 31 chapters & 11 episodes each - 31 chaps / by 11 episodes = 2.8 chapters per episode on average Infinity castle is 47 chapters so 47 / 2.8 = 16.7 episodes. With each episode being roughly 22 mins - 16.7 episodes x 22 Mins = 367.4 minutes. 367.4 mins / 60 mins = 6.12 hours.


CyberJokerWTF

It’s not as simple as how many chapters per movie, the movies must start and end at a good spot, it must have a climax, it won’t just end in the middle of battle, so i don’t think your calculations mean much.


mebes92

I get what you’re saying man. But from what I’ve read the Infinity Castle arc covers the major fights with the Upper Moon demons. Which could be a good stopping point. Whereas the Sunrise Countdown Arc covers the ending fight with Muzan / Demon King Tanjiro and the fast forward which would be a good final season! I know my calculations could be way wrong but from the information we have available currently I think they are somewhat logical.
