| This didn't feel like a season finale, and there are still plenty of plot threads left unresolved, but at least there was an end credit scene that confirmed production of the movie which was teased in the previous season, and the movie should fill in a bunch of those gaps. The main purpose of this season really can be summed up as a teaser to the movie (which will likely be about Seven returning to the island to fight White Fox) and developing Green Phoenix as a character. To which they did both pretty well. Green Phoenix especially became one of my favorite characters of this show. I kind of wanted Thirteen to be the one to kill Spider Lily, but Green Phoenix doing the deed works too, and perhaps she's not actually dead yet (we will see). Some highlights of this last episode were finding out that the shadow organization's leader used Stan technology as a bodyguard (which can be a great plot point for later seasons), Green Phoenix's backstory, and his relationship with Thirteen alongside his sacrifice. While this season was fun and had some great episodes, I feel like this was easily the weakest season so far. It lacked direction to deliver a cohesive narrative for this season and just felt like they were just making episodes randomly without thinking on how to properly format those episodes into a single season. Despite that, it was still great and I can't wait for more! |

Ke8 said: There are rumors of an extra OVA episode getting announced this weekend, so that OVA might also resolve some of the cliffhangers. Though even if the OVA news is legit, it could very well be a prequel or another side story instead of a continuation of one of this season's storylines, so we'll have to wait and see. Agree with you, this must be the weakest season so far. Although the action & storytelling were still engaging and amazing as always, the overall of this show feels very not cohesive. I have no issue with some cliffhangers, but at least give us some outcomes out of the many side stories. There are way too many of them this season and no conclusive ending at all. The events e.g. Redtooth's return to the island, the missing Chairman Jiang, the death (?) of Green Phoenix or Seven's pending inner conflict are fizzled out with any result. This is why this season, at least for me, feels much less satisfying than the previous ones. |

| Could have been better. Easily the weakest season of them all imo. It was still good though. 7/10 |

| Can anyone tell me name of the OST played at the ending ? |
 |
| @Ankithadam The above post provided that specific ED. |
|
| Still loved it despite some lax. It ended on a cliffhanger again. I'm looking forward to the movie. |
 |
| Phew. I feel exhausted after marathoning this season. It may not have been the greatest season but it was so watchable. I loved the music too, it just worked so well with the atmosphere. The movie could really turn out to be a masterpiece assuming they use the same production values and wrap everything up into a nice neat package with a happy ending. Scissor Seven has been an amazing series, and I look forward to more of the same. |
| May the Uguu be with you. |
| Ma boy 7 ain’t entered yet… Havoc’s bout to fall upon the assassins 🗿🗿 |
| Great ending to the season, I defo suspected this as soon as I saw the emosh ED with 13 and Green Phoenix Agree it wasn't as strong as some of the other seasons, maybe due to seeing less of 7 and Dai Bo this time, but I guess it was needed for the narrative. It wasn't a weak season either, still so good, just that I enjoyed the others more. Still think it's a 10/10 under rated masterpiece overall. Can't wait for the movie and whatever else comes next for this awesome anime! |
| I have a third testicle that gives me psychic powers |
| These seasons always ending randomly on cliff hangers |
| Inhales oxygen |
| The weakest season due the "fillers" in the middle (the flashbacks of minor characters were totally disposable), but the end saved it. The annoying bit** is dead, and maybe 13 master as well. Hope China keep this series till the end, cause its really good. |
 |
| Really enjoyed this season, loved the way they fleshed out other characters. Can't wait for the movie and possible another season. |
