Whisper Me A Love Song to have 2 recaps, delaying episode 9 to June 22

Episode 9 of Whisper me a love song The Yuri anime adaptation won’t be arriving anytime soon, as the series’ website announced that two recap specials will air on June 8 and 15. The episode will now debut on June 22 in Japan, with “production circumstances” cited as the main reasons. due to the change in broadcast date.

While the specifics of Whisper me a love songThe production status of is unknown, the delay is not a complete surprise given the series’ low production quality and early signs of problems – in addition to having missed its initial premiere window of January 2024, l he anime went through a director change due to the original. the health of Pick and his saw Animation Yokohaman LaboratoryCredits move from Animation Production Supervisor to Co-Animation Production Studio (with Cloud hearts) before the broadcast begins.

Coincidentally, the announcement of Episode 9’s delay came shortly after a fairly viral – and error-containing – X (formerly Twitter) thread that attempted to paint a picture of the anime’s troubled production . While this development may appear to support this thread, it should be noted that the thread contains statements that do not stand up to scrutiny. For example, the credits for Episode 7 show that the concert scene had nine key presenters – plus a few second key presenters and an unknown number of middlemen – instead of the claimed “2 to 4 people”. He also wrote that “the entire Yokohama Animation Lab team left the project”, despite the internal status of episode 5 and the studio’s (variable) involvement in other episodes.

The thread also provided a distorted picture of outsourcing – a topic covered by the Sakuga blog in a 2021 article – and animation production in general by claiming that each episode has a different “production level” due to the series having multiple outsourcing studios. Outsourcing does not automatically cause such a problem, and differences or declines in production quality within the same show do not require outsourcing.

Whisper me a love song premiered on April 13 and is available on HIDIVE. The anime is an adaptation of the manga Eku Takeshimawhich began serialization in Comic Yuri Hime in 2019 and has nine tankoubon volumes as of March 2024.

Kodansha USA describes the premise of the manga as follows:

Himari tells Yori that she loves him, and to Himari’s surprise, Yori says that she loves Himari back! But when Himari realizes that she and her senpai feel two different types of love, she begins to wonder what “love” really means…
