I see a dearth of positive reviews on this third season of Daily Life of Immortal King, so I want to emphasize my strong endorsement for the quality of this season. It recaptures the magic of season 1 with its overarching plot, while also successfully imbuing a new episodic quality that rivals popular sitcoms.

I've always loved this show as a masterful and enjoyable parody. The show is about an immortal king who hides his powers, which is cliche and it's meant to be. One thing that sets this parody apart from ones like One Punch Man, in my eyes, is that it's strangely soothing. The openings/endings and background music is like a peaceful lullaby, in sharp contrast to other parody shows which embody shouting tones reminiscent of battle shounen. It's the kind of show you can watch right before bed, being left with some laughs, a smile, and sweet dreams.

This season reaches new heights on the front of humorous satire. With engaging episodic plotlines, this third season successfully and humorously parodies Yu-Gi-Oh, Pokemon, and even the Matrix. While the season has an episodic nature, I do not recommend skipping any episode, as other reviews suggest (other than the bulk of episode 10, outside the first and last minute, since it's mostly a recap). Details in all the episodes masterfully come together in the concluding arc, an arc that is actually well done and recapturing the magic of season 1. In season 2, the final arc was so rushed that it was incoherent at times, but that issue has vanished in season 3. All in all, highly recommend this season and the entire series as a whole.
