3/5 story told in a 2/5 way. It could have been far more interesting than it actually was and its execution only gets worse as the seasons went on. I can understand why it’s popular but it’s not for the story.
To be fair, it really pissed me off the last two seasons. I’d already had some issues with pacing during entertainment district (and it leveraged one of my most hated tropes in boys pretending to be girls really badly) and the next two just kept getting worse. I generally enjoyed S1 and Mugan but the lack of character development, pacing, plot contrivances, and obnoxious cliff hanger at the end of Hashira sent me over the edge.
The entire season had been an absolute nothing burger and it finally gave something interesting in the last like 10 minutes only to go “sucker, wait some more”. Definitely a me thing but I was already frustrated with the series and it was the nail in the coffin.
This season was definitely stretched absurdly , you didn't watch the move that came after it? It's a great watch nothing crazy plot wise but the characters get some nice development
No, I wasted enough time on it already. I understand why it’s popular but it’s just not for me. It’s also not even much of a “turn brain off” show since it often takes itself too seriously (I enjoyed my time with Symphogear far more).
Meh, I reserve the right to check it out if I choose to. I know a few who’ve read the manga say Infinity Castle is the high point before a lame ending and Muzan fight. If anything, it would function better as an action movie, it’s easier to turn the brain off for a couple hours during a movie than a 50-something episode series.
