| I'm not surprised, this series is really popular overseas, and with Kadokawa and Crunchyroll's money, they will keep making new seasons until they adapt the whole story. |
 |
| Tbh. I had high hopes after s1, but it turned out to be one big disappointment. And it's not even about the execution anymore. S3 was probably my last one. |

Why is it so poorly reviewed, whats the problem with it? Was thinking about watching it.
| @AwNoodles The series kinda fell off and become worse after Season 1, so if you re thinking of watching it just watch season 1 :) |

| @MadanielFL Is this still really popular? I hear so many complaints that it stopped being interesting after the first season that I've forgotten that it was once a big hit and a topic of discussion. |
 |
| Well, this definitely didn't come as a surprise but my expectations aren't going to be high for this. I really enjoyed the first season but after that it started going rapidly downhill. |

| @MadanielFL Well, I quite liked the first season, which really was and felt like a very hyped blockbuster. But I was forced to take a break after the second season when the show suddenly became very generic and reminiscent of a regular action isekai. I've heard that one of the main criticisms of LN is that it is supposedly a typical story with a loud and hyped start, but a very slow pace afterwards. |
|
| Oh these are some interesting news right here... I'll catch season 3 in the way. |
 |
| Good news honestly, that s3 build-up are not wasted at least. Looking foward for it |
 |
| This series is on some serious downward spiral. Not hoping season four to change anything in this regard. I miss those days when it was used to be watchable enough. |

Dropping a fun fact here: Out of 400k people who added season 3 on their list, 264k of it are people who added it to their plan to watch list. This show is on everyone's plan to watch, but nobody actually watches it. It's because season 3 was added to the database in 2019 when the show still had hype around it. So people put it on their plan to watch but then forgot about it over the years.
| @OiGon Interesting, so they probably weren't expecting that this series would turn worse. Thank you for the fun fact :)  |

| I'll never forget my feelings when I watched the series for the first time , my feelings were a blend of anger , suspense , love and satisfaction by the end . It was a masterpiece indeed. When I started watching the 2nd season I suddenly felt empty , as if nothing is going on ,thus I felt something is off and I had to drop it temporarely because if I keep watching it's like wasting water on a sand as I feel nothing and no longer connected to the story and characters anymore. As an anime only fan I didn't care that much for the low ratings but despite all of this , turns out the series went down for sure. While it's good the anime continues , I doubt that we're going to see another masterpeice season full of mixed feelings and development like Season 1. As the rule says : " keep your expectations low and you'll never get disappointed " . Let's hope at least we get a full adaptation , maybe things will be close to the greatness of S1 by the time the ending unfolds. |
For your Lord has decreed that you worship none but Him. And honour your parents. If one or both of them reach old age in your care, never say to them ˹even˺ ‘ugh,’ nor yell at them. Rather, address them respectfully. And be humble with them out of mercy, and pray, “My Lord! Be merciful to them as they raised me when I was young.” (Holy Quran 17:23-24). |

| This was expected, they didnt do S3, to stop at this mid plot. Rest assured the ending of S4 will be fucking BOMB, if adapted with this staff, this is what they wanted to do all long, pure feels. When we had none of them since early S1. AwNoodles said: Why is it so poorly reviewed, whats the problem with it? Was thinking about watching it. Binge watch it, S1 and S3 should be fun enough for you, and S4 will be emotional. Raideroz-nim said: Tbh. I had high hopes after s1, but it turned out to be one big disappointment.

You are only saying that, to them people praise the ending of S4 and get you watching it, and you reaching the conclusion that at least S4 was worth it, but you had to go through tons of filler like plot. |

| @Playcool I don't understand your point, could you speak proper language? |

| I know money speaks, but a lot of people seem to have already dropped it. |

| To people saying it fell off alter S1: disagree. I fell off after episode 4 of season 1. HARD. It's just S2 and S3 were feeling like a badly produced filler, but the rest of S1 was "kinda mid", as the zoomers like to say. And, for real, after the episode 21 of S1, there was not EVEN A REASON TO CONTINUE THIS SHOW, the main conflict was solved and the main hock were gone. NO ONE cares about the hordes. Of course it would become a generic fighting harem isekai post-that. At that point, it was milking. |
| FGO NA Code: 482.072.599 (F2P thug life of savings...) Ben-to! best nonsensical action anime. Ever. |

| @Playcool If that would be the case, then I would happy. I won't be waiting for it though. |

| I hadnt watched any anime in over 2 yrs due to life stuff but been thinking of this a lot so I finally finished S2 (restarted from ep1) then watched S3 all on Sunday just gone as I enjoyed it so much. Seriously cant wait for S4! |
| Raphtalia stuff next season, should be good ig? |
