Currently only 3 of the 18 I started have a delay. A few I was going to watch never started though.

The only anime from this season that have been postponed after already starting are:
IDOLiSH7
Houkago Teibou Nisshi
Fugou Keiji
Appare-Ranman
Shokugeki no Souma
Bungou to Alchemist
Digimon Adventure
That's 7 out of 46.
If you add ongoing ones from previous season it's 12 out of 74 overall.
The other delayed stuff are things that hadn't actually aired, and there's 28 things listed on MAL's thread.

I don't see why you're debating this. In terms of TV anime there's 19 delays which is already pretty high and I see no point in specifying the difference between anime that got delayed before or after airing. In the end they both got delayed and we'll be seeing more of this in the coming weeks.

I just got told I was wrong when I wasn't, and felt the need to demonstrate that I wasn't. That's all.
And personally I do see a difference between stuff that was postponed in advance and stuff that was postponed during the airing - the latter means that people started watching only for them to then have to wait ages for a continuation, whereas for the former it may as well have just been scheduled later to begin with.

I mean sure that will affect people but it did seem like you were pointing out that difference to enforce your view that not many series have been delayed. Sorry if there was a misunderstanding
The total number of 74 also includes shorts and iirc also series not airing weekly. It also includes several shows that most likely never hit the west (not officially nor fansubbed)
MAL ommits Detective Conan TV in their list - maybe as they haven't officially blamed Corona for the hiatus - and with the other 7 series delayed before airing that makes 20.
Exciting stuff. Studio Khara have put the first three Evangelion Rebuild films on YouTube for a ten-day period between 20 and 29 April.
You can access the videos via this Crunchyroll article:

The only interesting part due to lack of subs is the 3.0+1.0 trailer at the start at all of them as I prior only saw it on my phone.

No captions (subs). Japanese only. I suppose a lot of people know the story, so could watch raw.
Balls.
Still, I'm gonna (re)watch them anyway. They're the cinema versions of the films rather than the home video versions. I've seen 3.0 twice already but 2.0 only once — all the way back in 2011.
Technically I've never seen 1.0 at all!
The closest I've seen is 1.01.
These numbers are gonna get confusing. Just wait until the home version of the last of the four films. Evangelion 3.33+1.11 anyone?
Yes. No bloody wonder.
You are (not) alone in that.

I love 3 so much at this point it’s worth the boring 1.11 and bizarre changes in 2.22. I also like Mari more than I used to as I can tell she will be important.
The problem with 3 is I can’t say the rebuilds are for newcomers.

I started with Rebuild, and it never did me any harm.
Though imagine how much less sense 3.0 would make without The End of Evangelion as a reference point.

It seems Gits has not a got dub yet it says “pending” on languages and a pop up saying safety is paramount so seems it couldn’t be completed prior to COVID

Wonder why they released the dub trailer if it wasn't complete and ready to go. Certainly it was released (well the tweet NG posted was) after Funimation announced they had postponed dubbing for the time being. So they must have known it wouldn't be ready.Well that frees up some time. Maybe I could watch the entire franchise in Japanese, probably be done before this is all over and work resumes!

As long as it has subtitles, I'm good. Don't need any dub!
