Yeah, this arc premiered in theaters. I didn’t go, but after watching the first two episodes it really felt like it was basically a bait and switch. The first episode starts off with a very cinematic animation style but after the intro it reverts back to TV animation.
It was basically a reverse Mugen Train, which itself was a weird decision. They thought the arc was too short for a season so they made it into a movie, but then decided to adapt it as the first part of season 2 anyways. They basically cut the movie into episode chunks, and you can tell because the animation changes in the episode after the movie adaptation ends.
It’s probably more like “you wouldn’t know her, she goes to a different school.” it’s something that’s said when someone is pretending to have a girlfriend, often in a school setting. I don’t think I’ve heard it in real life that much, but I’ve definitely heard it a ton in TV shows and movies.
It’s also used a joke when referring to anyone for any reason because the original use sounds really silly even when sincere.
My wife has been watching OP for over ten years now. I always talked shit about it but never understood it. After being amazed by this movie though, I finally decided to give the show a shot and am so far blown away by how timeless it feels. It definitely has a lot of the typical shonen tropes but it’s mainly a comedy with continuity and it really excels in the regard.
I feel like they did it this way out of some kind of contractual obligation. Like they are getting paid to make a third season, not a specific amount of episodes. So as long as they continue to produce “season 3” they’ll keep getting paid.
I can’t think of any other explanation as to why they’d do this otherwise.
Praise the sun!
