Six months after they should have been on Netflix. Also, I hope they upload the second half of The Disastrous Life of Saiki K. 2 soon, I have been waiting to binge it.

I thought it was called Piano Forest? 'Forest of Piano' makes no sense.

Yes let every anime be on Netflix to save the world.

Unfortunately, overly-literal, stilted translations seem to have become the standard for Netflix. I first noticed it while watching Fate/Last Encore, and Flavor of the Soul was only somewhat better.

Oh yeah, I completely forgot about these series after Netflix grabbed them. Oh well.

Also, "Forest of Piano"? Really, Netflix? Why not just go with "The Piano Forest", which is what everybody was using and is a much more sonorous title?

Maybe my blame is misplaced, and the Japanese licensor insisted on that title, but it's pretty bad.

Great news. I really hope we get the full 26 episodes of Pandora/last hope in one go, though. I'm really looking forward to binge-watching it so if it's only the first 13 episodes that would mean more waiting.

I'm pretty sure it will only be the first half, I don't think the final episode will have aired by September 14th.

The only justification I can see for that long of a gap is so the person that is writing the script for a possible Eng. dub had more time to translate vs. a weekly Eng. dub script. Still, many like me prefer a weekly simulcast.
