NEWS: Alya Sometimes Hides Her Feelings in Russian Anime Delayed to July 2024

OK

Another title added to the list of being overworked animators with poor management and probable poor animation quality and probable further delays as it airs during the summer list.

Check Check Check.

Nah, this time it seems to be the other way around and Aniplex doesn't want to shoot themselves in the foot with a potentially big hit on their deck like what they had with NieR Automata anime in the already friggin busy Spring season - while Doga Kobo is already busy with Jellyfish Can't Swim, which is also produced by Aniplex, and the second season for Oshi no Ko - which have the same producer as Roshidere.

Huh, I thought Alya is primarily Kadokawa's and Jellyfish is King Records'. You don't see the usual Aniplex' vanity links (yeah, that's how I call those ) at the bottom of both websites. And I found neither shows on their site (they're usually quick to add those they produce).
Maybe they are indeed part of the production committee, but not at the top of the list. Probably as BD/DVD distributor.

Production problems again. I am not surprised.

I am speaking under correction but, I think KADOKAWA does their own distribution. I can't find any information linking the series to Aniplex though they could just be involved in the streaming via Crunchyroll.

The delays are probably due to Oshi no Ko and Jellyfish taking up a majority of their already small workforce.

Roshidere and Oshi No Ko have different production teams. The real reason they are delaying it is they know Roshidere cannot compete against all those franchise sequels concentrated into one season.

The issue is more likely the spring slate. There are too many sequels of major franchises, it will galvanize any attention away from new shows. Demon Slayer, MHA, Tensura, DAL, Konosuba, Mushoku, Yuru Camp

We never had this many big franchises all collected in one season. Piling a bunch of franchises into one season generally doesn't impact them too much because they have dedicated fanbases that will watch the show and buy any related goods. But it significantly hurts newer shows due to sheer competition.

Spring 2024 should be considered a war zone for anime. Kaiju No.8, Yozakura, other new shows need to pull out of Spring asap because they are swimming in a tank of sharks.

Summer isn't any better thanks to an already glutted slate of first-time romcom adaptations, though. (This may be the first domino to fall in pushing several of those into fall, though.)

It's all just speculation until sufficient evidence is provided.

Doga Kobo is a tiny studio, they don't have multiple teams.
