Wow... A year and a half. I get that they need to wait for the manga to finish, but can't it be like early spring of 2020? Or at least early summer of 2020? Is that too much to ask? I guess it is, since it's very difficult to create such an amazing anime, and they don't wanna rush it or anything. I suppose we're all going to have to be patient.

They could if they wanted, to be honest. That season will contain two arcs, one of which ended in the manga a year ago, so they could start animating that one for a Spring 2020 release, and continue with the other after a hiatus just like it happened with this one.

The issue is that we still don't know which studio is going to animate it. If it's still WIT, then it's a lost cause. We already know how they always like to over-saturate their schedule with other projects and give them priority over AoT, causing delays and rushed releases. And if it's not WIT, then maybe they're still on the lookout for another studio, or the one who picked it already has their agenda full.
