I mean, Miru Tights is probably the only saving grace for an otherwise lackluster season. Next season looks great though, so there is hope. This had been a decent season for me. Kimetsu, OPM, that Magna anime, fruit basket, bocchi and shieldbro from last season. Probably as good as any season will be lol.

Apparently the production schedule was way too intense for them to maintain, but at least they're sending it off with a bang. Have they done the other seasons too? I haven't read or watched AoT for years now. Think I stopped around the time + Show Spoiler + some new Titans appeared (some tall one and some furry? one lol) | ||

This season's OPM doesn't really grip me, either. I'm a couple episodes behind atm. I miss the awesomeness of the animation. It also doesn't help that it is currently in its weakest stretch of the story... oh well The new Shinkai doesn't excite me very much. Lets see if he goes back to his old style but from the trailer it doesn't look like it. If anything, he brings more and more of the usual facial expressions into his work... In one scene I thought I was watching a trailer of Reero s2 (with admittedly good animation). Speaking of which, I'm probably not going to watch s2. I still remember the pain of forcing myself through s1. Wow, this is one negative post. Even for my standards... | ||

Also as for AoT, Season 2 was definitely weaker compared to seasons 1 and 3. Even just the first cour of season 3 is much much better than 2 was. | ||

Makes me wonder what they're going to do with the last 4 episodes though, this one definitely felt like a season finale, they're probably going to do the My Hero Academia thing where they set up the next arc right before the season actually ends. Funny you say that, because I thought it was meh. + Show Spoiler + Revenge porn in these sorts of works always feels weird when you consider who the target audience is. Add in some boobplate lowering and a couple minutes of moaning/writhing and you've got yourself enough fanservice to sate the audience for years. Putting that aside, I feel like the characterization has been pretty weak overall. If you're gonna go for the edge, at least commit to it. Though I haven't read the manga or the source, I hear they actually do follow through on some aspects (for better or for worse). Naofumi and party in the anime are just paragons of good in the most boring fashion. Storywise, things are just strange. Apparently nobody liked the church? Everyone was super onboard with just changing religions because that's totally how that works. What I really don't understand is why the queen did absolutely nothing until now. Despite the shadows being hyped up, they did jack shit for the last 20 episodes besides making spooky appearances. Only having one lord you can trust? Tough country. As saccharine as Slime was, at least it knew what it wanted to be. Frankly, I still think the best part of the show was when it was pretending to be Spice and Wolf. Everything in the 2nd cour has been lacking in both plot and animation. Also Fruits Basket gud. | ||

BigFan, I was being facetious. Did you not notice my standout anime? Kimetsu, OPM (to a degree), Shieldbro, and the ending of FT has been good as any really. Kimetsu is easily the best anime this season right behind BSD. | ||

I've been seeing the Church argument pop up places and honestly it's the easiest one to explain. + Show Spoiler + The Church of the Three Heroes worshipped THREE of the heroes. They might have been down with killing the Shield Hero especially with all of the propoganda that framed him, but the Pope was going to kill the other 3 heroes also who the church goers worshipped. Imagine that for a second. The leader of your church was going to kill the very people you prayed to. That's obviously not going to fly with most people, only the most loyal to the pope was gonna be down with that. The fact that the Church also played a part in nearly assassinating the other two princesses probably also made it easy for the average citizen to back off of the church. the Pope went too far. The average citizen was going to easily be able to see that, and even if they had their hesitations the Queen's men were rounding up all of the devoted church faithful that were involved. Does it not make sense that most citizens would say "uhh ok maybe this is some real shit." | ||

Also, I only realized yesterday that the OPM ED is sung by Saitamas VA. I just thought they hired a real singer for the ED like with season1 but damn he is a good singer. | ||
