The recent delay is likely due to several factors! Studio Pierrot has a very busy schedule right now! You can easily find articles highlighting the fact that Studio Pierrot is in charge of other amazing animated projects like "Bleach: Thousand-Year Blood War part 3" or "Karasu wa Aruji o Erabanai" or "Kingdom season 5"! This makes it harder to produce everything on schedule. They also took on work for McDonalds' anime promotions, adding to an already demanding schedule!
