It started as one of my season's favorite anime because I believed that the plot was super original... I mean we all have saw the tipical plot of the otome game but this one was different.
At the beginning it started giving us that fresh air of originality that it had.. but at certain point it became repetetitive.

Lieselotte having a lot of trusting issues is funny initially, but when you are in chapter 8 and half of the plot has move on you are like "really?" at this point you are still having that kind of issues? Not to mention than she has the ... strongest attacks of the witch when every couple is setted: Fiene and Bal, Sieg and her. Really are you going to be jealous about your "sister" when she has openly declare that has feelings for your cousin and vice versa?

I saw all that inconvients as an excuse for extend the plot. And it wasn't enought because after all that, they starts to showing us the ""plot"" about Endo and Kobayashi, that in my opinion it's the most boring thing that this anime has. It gave me, literally, sleep.

I don't know if I'm going to finish this anime honestly. When I think that I've already saw the 3/4 parts I think "Hey, you can do it" but I don't know if I'll achieve that.

This season is completely forgettable.
My biggest problem is that it doesn't contributes anything new to the serie, in fact, the things that offers actually substracts. All the character development that Erina has in the previous seasons, season five is in charge of erased it.
She starts as some vain girl who growed up thinking that she was the best in the culinary world because of his divine tongue. Despite of that, she doesn't enjoy cooking, she only sticks to the recipe and nothing more. When she meets Soma, the world she known it's turned upside down. She starts to enjoy proving new things, and ... discover that not everything has to follow the recipe and the new things comes from "breaking" the rules, she even challenge his own father... and all that for what?? For nothing, because in the last season she is like a puppet again.
In fact, this last path introduces an antagonist UNNECESSARY that doesn't contributes NOTHING to the story, and comes out of NOWHERE, he weren't even introduced by the story before lol disastrous.

WARNING: SPOILERS.

Well it's starts really good, with Shinpei's sister and love funeral and at the moment you least expect pum, everything goes to hell.

Is awesome how the autor introduces the shadows in the manga, because you never saw it coming. And the firts chapters when he plays with it in orden to explain better to the reader what they are, also adding the loop's thing, are very enjoyable and intriguing. There comes a point when you can't figure out how everything it's going to be solved, because there are so many things to consider: the shadows in the present, the temporal lines, the shadows in ... the temporal lines, the loop's limit, the deaths.

And it ended being a shame, because of all the options the autor could have done for the ending of this work, he chosed the worst one. I felt like all the effort, the sacrifices the characters did, the deaths and everything ended up being worthless because at the end everyone is happy, alive, and as if nothing happened. I can't stop thinking that the autor shit in all he created, he created certain bases for his work for nothing, because in the end it doesn't even mattered.

The 60% is excellent. It's a shame the final stretch left much to be desired. Despite this, it is enjoyable.
