I guess based on previous volume to season ratio it might only take two depending on how they pace it

@Bookwormlife I mean, how much "arc" does part 3 contain again?

Did I miss anything else?

So based on that, 2 cours min to adapt part 3 fully. This ofc may bloat up to 3-4 cours (spread over 2 seasons) , or maybe 2 cours (1 season) + a movie or some OVAs, if they are being generous. Afterall, unlike the prev parts 1 & 2, part 3 and beyond barely have any contents that can be cut off from its adaptations w/o ruining the stories (especially part 5 worth 3-4 cours at the VERY least on its own!!!).

That being said, they could just brush off

as a montage instead, cutting down several EPs in the process. But no way in hell they would cut short any of the

. And

is just way too emotional to brush off as a montage as well. So even with those being shortened to a montage, we'd still be left with materials just over a cour length, hence 2 cours min.

I'd love them to make the end for part 3 to be:

I'm honestly a little bit worried about that. From the picture that's on MAL Right now, that is the picture they use for the last book in the series. This series is 40 books longish. It's kind of hard to keep track because they have parts and volumes but I think I'm in the ballpark. I just finished the series and it is fabulous, but it is only fabulous if they take their time with it. The rest of the content of the light novels is not going to fit easily or neatly into a 24 episode season at all. They could easily fit a whole season of just Rozemyne after she disappears at school. Possibly two seasons actually. Not to mention there's the whole thing with Charlotte, there's just so much content to cover. I have no idea how they would possibly fit everything remaining into just two half seasons. And I'm worried because the light novel and the anime are both precious to me. The light novel is my number one favorite, the anime is probably number two right now.

@sisngood

Part 1 - 3 volumes
Part 2 - 4 volumes
Part 3 - 5 volumes
Part 4 - 9 volimes
Part 5 - 12 volumes.
There are also 8 fanbooks (side stories, commentary, Q/A, art)
And the there's short story compilation (at least 3 volumes possibly more.

As far as I know this season is going solely stick to part 3 (adopted daughter of the archduke) I'm of the opinion that part 3 should be 24+ episodes if they cover everything. It took the 28 episodes to cover the first 5 volumes. I also think that a OVA should be released to help cover the transition (almost half of part 2 volume 4 was alternative perspectives - Sylvester, in the anime was portrayed as fairly heartless but in the LN he really agonized and grieved over his decision but that's currently missing from the anime

@uncleqrow No, please, I need Hayami Show to do it. If they put enough work into the visuals and music, it would be the best part of the season. My life could then end with no regrets xD.
