Unlike other seasonal anime with production and mismanagement issues that caused their delays, the main reason Bucchigiri episode 7 will not air in February is due to a conflict in schedule.

Bucchigiri episode 6 concludes the full-out gang war involving Siguma Squad, Minato Kai, and the NG Boys after Arajin Tomoshibi beats Shindo Akutaro.

The episode also took the viewers back to the time when Marito Jin first encountered Kenichiro Doman. They fought in the past, but no winner emerged, resulting in their continuing rivalry in the series.

On the other hand, Shindo mentions Senya’s name, which caught Arajin off guard. Arajin thinks Shindo can see Senya and that another majin is inside him.

What’s more, it looks like things are now settled between Arajin and Matakara after everything that happened between them in the past.
