After all, they showed a shot of Roman in this episode all the way back during that Austin interview. They finished work on Season 1 about four weeks ago, if I'm remembering correctly. They probably took a little bit of time between, so my guess is that they're now getting into serious work on Season 2. First of which is likely reworking the characters' rigs, and hence the dancing Jaune video.

Wait, are you talking about volumes 1 and 2? Monty said the mid-season break is going to last as long as it takes for them to make volume 2, but they want to try to make sure that it doesn't take too long.

They didn't finish work on season 1. Just volume 1.

And yeah, the rigs are definitely going to take some time. I dunno how long it takes to make a new rig for a 3D model, but no matter how much time it takes for one model, they have quite a few models to work on. It's bittersweet.

Bitter: Means it'll take more time, thus adding to the wait in the mid-season break

Sweet: Better animation! I've done some rigging. Depending on the program they're rigging in & how user friendly it is and how complex the rig is, it can take less than a week or up to a month for a good rigger to properly rig a character.
