The official website of the Re:ZERO -Starting Life in Another World- anime revealed on Monday that the anime's second season is delayed from April to July. The staff explained that "the global issues of the COVID-19 coronavirus illness have had a big effect on the production" of the show. The staff will reveal the new start date, time, and channels at a later date.

Konomi Suzuki returns to the franchise to perform a new opening song for the second season. Singer nonoc will also return for the new ending theme song.

The surprising thing is this not getting delayed but that it's been 4 years since season 1 aired.

I think this is the first of many anime and other media to be delayed. Nothing's indicating a slowdown of the virus.

That's nothing new
Only a few popular anime maintain the schedule and other series get delayed for one reason or the other

Pretty sure it was due to lack of source material, but yeah not many anime get more stuff after so long.
