| @Catalano idk the story is already there, its not like the studio is going out of their way to change the story when they already put the trailer and main pv for it |
| Signature removed. Please follow the signature rules, as defined in the Site & Forum Guidelines. |
| Finally! I hope for 24-26 episodes at the previous seasons!! |
 |
| How much more do they need to fully adapt the manga? I heard that the ending was quite controversial as usual and I wonder if the studio will do something about it. |

Catalano said: Yes, that’s why anything post shibuya sucks big time. I wish whoever’s in charge of deciding which anime gets a sequel chooses better anime to continue animating.looks worse than I imagined, did mangaka lost his brain sometime in the middle of shibuya arc? |
| Welp, I've just watched the last one and another compilation film is coming up. |
 watching, waiting, commiserating |
| Winter 2026 looks worse every new announcement. |
| I guess now I'll finally have the motivation to finish season 2. |
 |
| The manga's ending soured my opinion of the series but I'm still looking forward to this because of some characters and fights I want to see animated. |
| People on MAL refuse to actually enjoy watching anime. Your taste in anime isn't a personality trait. Take me back to the days before MAL became infested with Twitter's favorite buzzwords. |
