The story this season is really interesting because of the introduction of an antagonist. The first half of the season starts off normal with the moon festival which is another cooking event. After that however the story changes and totsuki goes from trying to weed out the weak to trying to weed out dissidents. Overall this is a great change which makes the story way more exciting and coherent which elevates this season above the previous two.
The characters are mostly the same apart from the introduction of an antagonist and a more in depth look at the elite 10. The reasoning of the antagonist is sound and he isn't evil for the sake of being evil. He simply has opposing morals that he acts on making him a great character that adds a lot to the anime.
The music, animation and voice acting are all the same or similar as in the previous two seasons.
Overall this is an amazing third season that I enjoyed more than the previous two. It's definitely worth watching if you liked the previous two seasons.
