Simon Racioppa(showrunner and executive producer) said this about the first 4 episodes “Hopefully, they make you think for the next few weeks or… months… to just make you reflect on it, so that you don’t just forget it. That’s what I’m hoping people will take back.”
Maybe it will be longer than expected because they want to add more to it? There have been a ton of complaints regarding some of the fights that happened so far in s2
Jesus…why is it taking so long to drop this season? Over 2 years for four episodes and then another 4 month wait for the rest of the season? Idk I just think that’s kinda dumb
4 months? it starts back up in January

I don’t understand what was so groundbreaking that we need not only more than the normal week to think on it, but months to absorb? None of this makes sense. All they are doing is pissing their fans off and killing hype…
There was nothing groundbreaking about it at all.
You could read that as him correcting himself from accidentally telling the truth that it’s a few weeks away and that he is not able to disclose that yet.
I suspect they at least don’t have a firm date yet, but I still think it’s most likely because they aren’t done yet and it’s going to be more like months.
Such a long wait for mid-tier animation
yeah no this is not ok. they should have just released it in 2024 if this is the case. this is absolutely killing the hype.
At the rate this is progressing, we’ll finish the story by around the year 2300
Yeah well don’t cry when people move on to the next thing
I know it’s hard to animate Atom Eve’s logo, but seriously . . .
ITT: morons they are stretching out seasons because you are all crying over a 2 month wait. They are spreading it out so there is less of a gap between seasons. If they release all 16 in a day then you will all binge watch and then whine for a year.
Almost unrelated but I’m a big fan of The Shield and I recently watched the cast reunion, and I remember them saying “we became hugely popular but we decided to keep our heads down, not be influenced by our success and keep on going”.
Invincible feels the opposite, they saw how shocked everybody was during season 1 and decided to turn that into a selling argument, but what was huge about episode 4 really ? Do they think we’re dumb ? They’re either splitting the season in two because the production is chaotic or because Amazon wants to use the show to keep boosting their numbers or something. Maybe I’m wrong but they can’t seriously believe the first part of the season was shocking or gave us anything that we should let sink in.
They just cut the momentum for nothing, and we waited two years for terrible animation. I hope they do something good with season 3 because the story alone won’t carry the show.
This is a big yikes. Not only did the second season take years, but on top of that they’re doing a long split release?
What the fuck man. This is how you end up killing a show
