Is that mean we more to be likely get a movie instead normal animation because it will be more than 30 min for episode 12 ?

That wasn't mentioned, but I'd expect something more along the lines of a double episode, like Fate/Zero's pilot. They're only wrapping it up, so a movie seems excessive.

Yup, they announced today-ish that it's going to be a double-length episode (46 minutes), initially airing Oct 3.

<p>Episode 11 of <em>Kekkai Sensen</em> aired on 20 June 2015. One would expect episode 12 (the last episode) to have aired a week later, on 27 June 2015. That... did not happen. </p>

<p>At present (17 Aug 2015), the last episode <em>still</em> hasn't aired. This is hugely abnormal - the last time I recall a delay of this magnitude this happening was when the Tohoku earthquake hit back in March 2011 and delayed the last few episodes of a number of winter 2011 shows. </p>

<p>Why is episode 12 over a month delayed? </p>
