Welcome Back everyone.
You might remember me as the Sasakoi Production leak guy, and today I wanted to post an updated thread with a few corrections, new information regarding certain things, and most importantly making aware of the troubled Production. Image
Before we start, it's very important that you know the context about what I am talking about.
I hope you all read the OG Thread. If not, I will post it under this thread.
To make it short Sasakois Production is fucked thanks to a Studio who wanted to much in a short time.
Lets start with the corrections first.
1. Like I said in a secondary tweet, Yokohamas entire team did not fully leave the project. Its like 80-90% who were assigned to work on another projects, were removed (and left uncredited) or just left thanks to awful working conditions.
2. It may gone under but the director was officially changed at November because the original director who did Lapis Relights fell Ill. We can safely assume it was because of the Sasakoi Project because it was fucked since the start.
3. The Director change was rumoured way back since September, I have screenshots where I am talking with another insider about it.
Thanks to my language barrier, a mistranslation happened. that's why I wrote creator instead of director.
Freitag stands for Friday btw. Image
4. Last but atleast the 48-72 hours claim was sadly wrong, its actually worse than that.
Most Eps actually only got finished in the final hours before the airing.
So the claim under 24 hours before airing would be more correct. ( Its actually way worse but we talk later about it)
So lets start with the new information.
First, I want to ask you not to ask for any screenshots, names, or positions my sources are working at. If they want to come forward, its their choice, if not please respect their privacy.
Thank You really much.
1. Lets talk about EP8, EP8 actually was another hellhole to work at.
The EP was finished mere minutes before the airing, which is why 3 certain things happened.
First: The International version had to be delayed for 10 hours because Hidive didn't receive the script in time.
Second: The Subs were not Updated because nobody knew about the Delay
Thrid: The decision to make the delay was a last second thing, which is why Himari is not saying ,,Prelude,, she is announcing the ninth EP. Nobody not even the staff knew about the delay.
2. Did the delay happen thanks to my Thread? The sad truth is yes. The Thread went surprisingly viral and reached Japanese Twitter on Friday morning, did Yokohama read it? I dont know, nobody from their higher ups came forward to me.
And yes the other delay was also caused thanks to the leaks.
3. People were asking about The New Gate, so I actually also talked with a few people involved with this one.
The New Gate is currently on life Support to quote one of them (I was allowed to do so)
Production for EP 11 just started a few days ago, and not a surprise alot of the Sasakoi People that were already forced to work on one hellhole are now tasked on working on the second hellhole.
4. Remember when I talked about the awful working conditions? The Anime is so fucked that they use students with no experience in a working environment to actually finish the Anime.
Alot of them are actually minors.
Not only do they work overtime on Sasakoi,
They also have to go to school in the meantime, making their life miserable from a moral standpoint. A few came forward to me and to say it nicely, arent 2 hours sleep a day great?
5. A few people were asking about the 2 delayed EP 9 and 10, is their production now better?
For once I can say a thing that is a bit positive, yes the delay helped the staff alot and I am glad I could helped them.
However, it doesnt mean everything is alright now
EP9 is apperently mostly finished, atleast that was my latest information I was allowed to share.
EP10 is still worked on.
6. What is with EP 11 and 12? They havent started production yet. Nobody knows when or if they come out for TV. They could end up as BD/DVD exclusive.
7. Can the BD/DVD version receive fixes? The go are giving the higher ups. If they think it makes sense they do, if not they dont.
I dont think they will.
Thats all the information I can share with you regarding the production of Sasakoi, If you have questions I am willing to answer them.
My sources want to tell you that they do everything to save the project, they are really happy reading your messages.
Thank You ❤️
I hope the second thread helped you to get a clearer picture of the situation.
I am happy if you share this Thread so everyone can read the update.
This will be my last big thread for this topic unless something drastic happens.
Thank You all for reading.

Hello everyone.
In the last Days, I got in contact with a person who works on the Sasakoi Anime. In this thread I will leak problematic working conditions, schedules of doom, miscommunication, scummy behaviour regarding Yokohama and Cloudhearts and much more.
You in for a ride. Image
Before we start with the leaks, its important to look back to the months before the Anime began its airing.
The Anime was after long rumors and people begging for it revealed at January 23. We got a Key Visual and the staff. Most People were sceptical......
Thanks to the Animation Studios. I was one of the few who said let them cook. Why? Because of Lapis Relights. Sadly we didnt reached this quality standard.
The Anime made its first public appearance at the AnimeJapan 23 the biggest Anime event of the year.
