Awesome! I hope that Rook is more involved this season since he didn't make too many appearances in the second season. I wonder if Freecell will have a part in the 3rd season too.

Pretty much this! Only that Phi Brain needs more Rook, but no more Freecell, Kaito or Cubik.

S2 is so much better it isn't funny. S1 tried to take itself seriously sometimes but then over the top at others. S2 hit its stride and never took itself seriously. It had BBQs in the middle of deadly puzzles and evil little girls wearing tiny hats.

I don't have the time (yet) to finish the season 2. Well, since it'll have a 3rd season, it can wait, it can wait.

anyway, THIRD SEASON BETTER FOCUS ON ROMANCE!

Well I believe "puzzle solving" can be referred as educational.
There are puzzles I studied in Math like Magic Square and Tower of Hanoi.
A lot of puzzle solving approaches are used to implement computer programs, based on my studies.

Its a kids TV anime that runs on ratings and selling video games/puzzle toys. Not everything depends on only DVD sales.

Am I missing something here? I didn't think this show was that popular to even warrant a second season, let alone a third. Why do they keep throwing money at this?

And to be quite honest, the first season was good, but the second season dragged on a bit too much. The originality wore off and they even started recycling old puzzles to fill the time. What can they possibly think up for season 3 that hasn't been done before in the previous two seasons?

I'll try it out anyway, but I'm already severely lowering my expectations as to not get too caught up with the show again.

Believe it or not, it's getting good ratings in its timeslot. It's not airing in late night timeslots like most anime so it doesn't rely on DVD/BD sales for it. Plus, the producer is NHK, a very well-known channel. Sunrise is just being paid to animate this.

WHY. HOW. WHY. WHY?!?!

I don't hate the series, but I think they should focus on something else! D: The evil 'baddies' in BOTH seasons are like EXACTLY the same! Fucking 'Oh, I was your childhood friend but you didn't save me!' problem in both seasons! Jesus Christ!

Well, whatever. I really don't know what I should do anymore. They've had puzzle repetitions too. I'm going to give it a try, but if the opposition is going to be the same AGAIN, just with some other weird hairstyle, then I'm going to shoot something. Or drop it.

HOW are they even getting the funding for this!?

Phi Brain has its fair share of fans, mostly enjoying the cliche but still entertaining interaction between the characters. Also, it does have a rather successful set of characters compared to most other series.

Despite its flaws, it does have its nice points. I would definitely dig in season 3.
bla bla bla
The endless debate between fans and haters. At one point, after spending a lot of time on MAL, you just realize it's totally pointless.
