Just wait like everyone, if you want it now you can support the artis to get it.
I was considering actually just buying what I wanted, but this season pass nonsense is confusing, and just isn't set up in a way I would want to pay for it.
-I only want to buy 1 animation but they are sold in bundles.
-Not worth subscribing to the petrean/fanbox because they only provide future works there, not past ones.
-The season pass stuff is labeled "2023 Season 1" on twitter and pixiv, but when you look at gum road its organized in a different way with stuff like "Season Pass: s4 Extended". Maybe I'm just dumb or something but I have no Idea what any of that means in relation to what's on twitter/pixiv.
-Gum road doesn't actually tell you when things were posted so its difficult to tell what season pass (on gumroad) goes to what season pass (on twitter/pixiv), plus idk what the differences between standard and extended even are.
There are so many things (even beyond what I mentioned) that are just not straight forward for the sake of not being straight forward, then you add on that everything is in Chinese and it just becomes a big mess. Sure, it's probably explained somewhere, but I spent the last couple hours looking for how this all works, but I couldn't find anything. Personally I'd rather not "accidently" pay 15$ to 30$ on something I don't even want (and even if I do guess right, I'm still paying for extra stuff I dont care about) so while I would prefer to just buy the '1' animation right now, I'm just gonna wait.
