let's hope it's a 2-cour.
1-cour is too little. 🥲
It's not that I dislike this genre but... to add unnecessary fan services to/in/for heroines
and ultimately destroys her character and personality; their purity tarnished because of it,
is the only thing I hope to not happen to them. For that sole purity is my fan service.

This means "Part" so, he's asking if this season would be split in 2 parts or just 1 full season (which is kinda strange nowadays)

Why would it get 2-cour? It’s time to conclude the show.

It's confirmed to adapt 3 Arcs... so probably 1 cour.

A "cour" is the representation of one of the 4 seasons of the year (which is 3 months) in TV slots, so around 12 weekly episodes.

There is still a lot left to adapt. Even after this Season, we'll merely be at half of the story.

@Alexioos95 we just had an spin-off = they needed to make time bc there isn’t that much left to adapt.

The Spin-Off was handled by another studio, to let 8bit focus on the Main Story, with the Tsuioku-hen Special and this 3rd Season.
It also was part of the celebration of the 10th year anniversary of the Light Novel, just like all entries in the Anime after the 2017 Movie.

There is 32 Volumes of Light Novel, and this Season should adapt Volumes 12-15. That shows you how much they can do, and that's not counting the Sequel or the Spin-Offs.

Nop.

The original story, yeah, it ended 4 years ago.
The Sequel, which began right after the end of the original, is still ongoing tho, just like the Juumonji Spin-Off.

@Alexioos95 if this ends up being 13 episodes, adapting 4 volumes will end up rushing the story a bit more than what happened with the visitor arc (season 2)

Yeah, but only very slightly more.

While the 2nd Season adapted the 3 Volumes of the Raihousha-hen Arc, it also had 2 Anime-Original Episodes. Removing them makes the 2nd Season adapt a Volume in 3 + 2/3 Episodes in average, whereas it'll be 3 + 1/3 here. With most adaptations doing 3 Episodes per Volume, we are just above fine.

what does It mean? if a series ends Is because the material ends, not because Is "long", there are expections, like Rent a girlfriend, but This anime doesnt Simply give you the same concepts, but expands on the story.

I just checked the list of volumes (not a source reader) and if it's really 3 arcs, like anikun said, it might be a little hard cause it's 4 volumes (one of the arcs is 2 volumes). I did the math and from season 1, they did 6 volumes in 26 episodes, that's 4.3 episodes per volume, so 3 volumes per 13 episodes. I was about to ask how they managed to miss stuff in season 2 if they seemed to have enough episodes for 3 volumes, but I see now, there were 2 original episodes, thanks for the clarification Alexioos. Either way the math I did is just an average, they did 7, 11 and 8 episodes for 3 arcs of 2 volumes each, so depending on the arc, the way they handle an adaptation might be different.

Well not that any of this matters, I just came here to see if the number of episodes was made public yet, I can't believe that even with this 4 volumes that are being made, only 15 volumes have been adapted (well the Summer Vacation Arc might have been skin though I think, I don't recall seeing this arc) that's only like, less than half of the 32 original volumes! Usually 2 anime seasons don't say much, but if this is getting a 3rd season I really want to hope for a complete adaptation, this show is too good! The world is so interesting, I really hope we get more, by the amount of entries (the ova and the spinoff) I'm starting to have faith it might! What do you guys think, will we be able to see this fully adapted?

Sad enough if there are only 12-13 episodes. I would like more, of course. The anime will stop literally at the most interesting part of the story
