Of all of the things to happen in SAO, I did not expect Chudelkin to finally get laid.

Laid in fire.

[LegalLoliLover]

In Gegege no Kitaro, Nanashi is basically Angra Mainyu, and Nekomusume is loli again.

[Sandstorm77]

Ha Iino actually made a cameo in the end. Season two when? I need me some ishigami arc.

So, I think Boggiepop was my AOTS. Even if you need to binge watch it to have any chance of following it. Kaguya was a close second that had managed to have me laughing really hard every time even though I read the manga and was spoiled on every punchline. Quintessential Quintuplets rounds out the top 3 as the show that I had no expectations of anything for, and ended up as really solid rom-com/harem show. Miku is best girl.

Favourite OP is probably Boogiepop's atmospheric slow ramp up, and ED is Kaguya, even discounting the great one-off ED, the normal one manages to tell an interesting story that expands on one of the characters personality.

Biggest disappointment is Price of Smiles. Not even bad enough to be entertaining, the only reason reason I finished it was because I kept expecting the next episode to be the one where the show finally decides to do something interesting with the world the spent so much time trying to establish. That feeling lasted all the way until the end of episode 12.

3 points in this week's Shield Hero:
1. How is the kingdom going to explain the fact that those soldiers "killed" in the Photoshop video still alive?
2. The irony is that I doubt that the kingdom would dare frame anyone who would actually do it. A RL example would be that Chinese tourists would never dare accuse Russia or any middle eastern country of "killing" them, like they did with Sweden:

3. That soldier said that he won't talk. Way I see it, those quests are the most fun: https://en.uesp.net/wiki/Oblivion:Information_Gathering https://en.uesp.net/wiki/Shivering:The_Lady_of_Paranoia

, Boogiepop and Kaguya's ends are so satisfying to me

Mob Psycho has last amazing fight can't tell which one is the best since every fight are amazing. But the end doesn't feel satisfying, I know that they probably have season 3 but that ending a bit rush

[Sesto]

Boogiepop's writing was seriously pretentious in the actual meaning of the word. Still, it was so damn stylish that I enjoyed it regardless.

Aoi Yuuki is a god, Boogiepop was a 10/10 performance.

[weeblord]

Kaguya ended up as probably one of my favorite romcom anime of all time. Damn. Really enjoyed it.

gonna keep an eye open for Kaguyas and Chikas VAs too and pray for continued success.

Poor Director-kun

[bassgs435]

People get too much into 4chan shitposting and hate. Jesus christ, I wouldn't insult even the people behind the Dies and Demonbane adaptations (mentioned those because those are 2 I watched and hate a lot) and those are much worse. I will criticise the shows and the job done on them, but getting agressive towards people is always too far. This is why I don't like critics who go out of their way to imply bad stuff about the authors of stuff like Shield Hero.
The quality of a show doesn't give anyone the right to insult staff

[AmADo VII]

this was nothing compared to Kemono Friends 2.

everything gone wrong since Tatsuki got fired.

[ChiakiKakumei]

So was the final fight in Mob Psycho longer in the manga? I felt like the fight that was suppose to be the breaking point was suppose to be longer.

Poor Director-kun

So will a season 4 even exist? I mean it took years to even get a season 3 to begin with. And that J.C Staff has too much anime to adapt and shit so the fans can't be asses like that. I mean, it took years for a OPM Season 2 and J.C Staff has to pick up the mantle Madhouse left them.

[bassgs435]

Most likely. The point of rushing to adapt all that remained of the Old Testament LNs was because the production comittee wanted the anime to get to New Testament fast (Hell one idea that was thrown in meetings was to just skip to NT, which would have been even worse). Would make no sense to then stop and not go there at this point.
Now, will S4 starting NT have the same staff and be done the same? That is a more interesting question because I feel reception Index III can make them rethink their approach and even staff.

[Wandering Swordwoman]

I don't even think season 4 will exist be made
Probably with new studio and director, it can be done

Magical Index has a lot of fans who are waiting for season 3 for years and they only got dissapointment. Magical Index season 3 had become meme back then before the anime was announced. But, they are blaming the wrong person
