THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE.
----------------------------------------
I'm going to be generous and pretend that the decision to call it Milky Holmes was made by some idiot in management - and not the producers.

Still, this season was a disappointment overall, and the finale sucked. We never even got to hear all the voices from the previous seasons one last time, so what was the point of bring them back in the first place only to say one or two lines In the episode before the finale? They should've saved them for this episode.

4/10

How fast pace it is.
the Milky Holmes fans were completely disappointed of this show huh?
the one who ruined the show were the Feathers while the Milky Holmes carried out this show.

I hate Kazumi, she is too bland and cliche type character, she looks very unattractive and boring.
I don`t hate Alice because i like her appearance though.


Overall score : 6/10

Futari wa Milky Holmes seems like a hmm... a fanfiction written by a fan who wants to be a detective. I mean the one who wrote this are Kazumi and Alice. I think the story is a little bit okay but err... it become so short its like we are fast-forwarding the show. I think it is better if the Milky holmes are directly guiding the two aspiring detectives and of course they should show why detectives and thieves exist right? err.. I think in the previous episodes they were talking about it.. ( correct me if I'm wrong) well somethings are not yet clear.. yet so I think there will be another season of this.. but this is just my opinion, everyone has their opinion and I respect it.

I rate it as 6/10.

As far as I'm concerned this show never happened, this was just some random anime with a random name and random characters.
This took the enjoyment out of one of my favorite comedic anime and they slapped me in the face with this garbage.
I think the producers should apologize to the fans of what we used to love. It's suck a shame with what they did with this show.

Okay there is something wrong about this...
It is dark and Cordelia isn't freaking out. Also, the rest of the milkies aren't their usual selves. Someone must have slipped Ritalin in their veggies. I miss my ADD Milky Holmes! <.<

2/10. Never happened, never acknowledged.

Alice is cute though, Shion you siscon!
Kazumi is mad ugly.

I have lowered my expectations since the first episode. And in the end, it still managed to go even lower than that.

Here's a summary of my feelings for the entire series:

  1. Changing main characters is never a good idea
  2. The new main characters are boring. Black is especially despicable.
  3. The new villains are shallow.
  4. The Milkies' personality are unrecognizable.
  5. The only reason the Milkies being here is to brainwash the old fans to like the Feathers. It failed.
  6. They should have advertised this as a spin-off from the start instead of being a season 3.
  7. They shouldn't have altered the timeline for the main series.
  8. They shouldn't have bothered with a serious Milky Holmes in the first place, after Alternative's miserable sales.
  9. The story is bland and generic like your average shonen series.
  10. The action scenes consists of only shooting the bad guy with an arrow. Every time.
  11. The comedy they promised before is non-existent.
  12. The serious drama is cheesy and forced.
  13. The art feels cheap. Especially the new designs of the Milkies. Especially Sheryl's eyes.
  14. The music needs variation other than smooth piano for every situation.
  15. Unlike Alternative, there is no actual detectiving here.
  16. Unlike the main series, there is no excuse for no actual detectiving here.


I'll write an indepth bashing review later.

1/10

Milky Holmes can't even pretend to act all Ojou-sama-ish around Kazumi and Alice. XD

I thought they would catch the Police Thief, but I guess not.

Phh. So much hate. And I liked the change of pace for once. Third season of the same ridiculous comedy is too much for me. But the ending was total trolling. Feathers bet the twins creation with one shot and Pink didn't do anything in the end. I totally don't understand her.

Quite a lovely ending thos this season of Milky Holmes. In my opinion it was way better than the previous season as this time they actually focused on detective work and not just silly and random things! This rather serious tone made the whole series way better imo and if there would be another season like this I'd sure to watch it!

Detective work as in shoot bad guy problem solved?
If you want to watch a real detective anime, go watch Conan.

There are also a lot of already serious (and actually good) anime out there so stop supporting the one that's not supposed to be serious.

Really unimpressed with this season as I'm not fan of either of those Feather girls. Eh, it seems just almost completely different from the other Milky Holmes series...

Oh well, 4/10.

I... I don't know why I'm even bothered to watch until the end... Maybe because I'm masochist. Yeah, that's definitely is.

Meh ending. Could've done better....
.... At least the Milky has speaking lines... sigh.

2/10, only because Arsene did appear... >.>

This. So much this. I don't care much about the piano music in every situation, but regarding the main character change and MAJOR art change, it just breaks my heart so much... And yeah, Sherlock's eyes... they're soulless... >.>
...And the director promised 50/50 seriousness/comedy from the start... what a disappointment. :/

I couldn't phrase it any better. :)
Alice and Kazumi felt like the despicable resident mary-sues of Milky Holmes universe... Well, more like Kazumi is, since at least Alice has some... redeeming features on her. >.>

This really should've been called a spin off that just happens in the Milky Holmes universe. This shouldn't be called the third season because it isn't. I hope the next season goes back to its roots. I like Milky Hlmes for the humor not for a series story but it is nice inn small doses.

So in the end, this was basically one of those fanfictions where people put their OCs. I wouldn't dislike it so much if it weren't for the fraud. I came here to watch Milkies and watched boring lolis being boring.

Futari wa Milky Holmes is not as bad as I thought, but the mystery is cheesy(Alternative is way better than this) and Feather are not intelligent enough to be Detectives. It is a fun watch though. Glad that G4 and Phantom Thieves Empire have their debut.

I've lost some faith in Milky Holmes fans knowing that they don't like this little distraction. It played with the main ideas of the first two seasons without relying on gag comedy. Different isn't always bad.

I laughed pretty hard at this final episode. Shion jumping off the building to save Doom Angel and Darkside was great, and him flying back up with his wings was the icing on the cake. Then Opera appears for only one line. Comedy gold.

Wait, none of that was meant to be funny? nvm

I don't know how much I should rate this. I didn't like either of the previous seasons, but this was far more boring than those.

Guess I'll rate it the same as the other seasons for now. 3/10

Wow, just wow. I don't think I've ever been so disappointed regarded any other anime ever. How is this listed as a comedy? So many clichés, complete lack of comedy, downgraded animation, everything was so predictable and boring.
I could go and list everything that is wrong with this anime but I'm not even waste my time since it has already been perfectly listed here by LEEG in 2013.

This season just didn't exist. I won't ever acknowledge this sh*t as Milky Holmes 3 but my love for Milky Holmes is still solid and I will give season 4 a chance and pray it goes back to its roots.

2/10 and I'm not rating this a 1 because abominations like Pupa and Diabolik Lovers exist.
Futari wa Milky Holmes was a mistake

Well, the last battle wasn't too impressive, but I don't mind.

This is exactly what I want from Milky Holmes. The characters are actually doing some detective work instead of goofing around and being completely retards 24/7. The first two seasons had their own strong moments, but all the random things, references and especially all those cringe side characters were just too much.

I like Alice and Kazumi. The bond between them is so adorable. :3
