"When an anime catches up to a manga that's still running, it must take a roundabout path to stay within reach of the manga before it can rejoin the manga. However, there are a number of risks: The anime could only buy enough time for the manga to move on, only to be canceled. Or the manga ends when anime's about to join. Or the anime and manga rejoin too early, and the anime has to diverge again in no time. Or in the process of diverging, the characters or setting in the anime are so different, that they can never rejoin again. Well, that's when they shamelessly remake the anime from the beginning again. Or use the same characters to make a totally different anime."
— Gintoki Sakata explaining about how an anime overtaking manga and fillers, Gintama
