Worst season by far!
This season has left me feeling utterly frustrated and disappointed. Bocchan, a character who has endured unimaginable suffering—isolated, unable to touch any living being due to a cruel curse—is now depicted as risking everything for the witch who ruined his life.
Bocchan's actions in this season are nothing short of infuriating. Despite the countless years of loneliness, the agony of not being able to feel the warmth of another human being, and the constant emotional torment of not being able to inherit the throne and being forced to living away from the whole family, he decides to risk his own life
...
to save the very witch responsible for his misery. It's a slap in the face to every moment we've watched him struggle and persevere.
The scene where Bocchan steps in front of a spell to protect the witch is particularly galling. How could he throw away everything—his safety, his chance at breaking the curse, his friends who were there to help him, and even his own life—for someone who caused him such pain? It's as if the series completely disregards the gravity of his past suffering. We are left feeling betrayed by these nonsense actions.
This season doesn't just undermine Bocchan's character; it obliterates the emotional connection we've built. His willingness to sacrifice himself for the witch diminishes the intense, awful times he faced. It's maddening to see a character who had every reason to fight for his own redemption now portrayed as a martyr for the very source of his torment.
In summary, Shinigami Bocchan to Kuro Maid's third season is a disappointing misstep. Bocchan's irrational and infuriating decisions make it hard to continue caring about his journey. The show has lost its way, transforming a tale of perseverance and suffering into a confusing and frustrating narrative that disrespects its own history. The author is a great writer of love stories and drama, as we can see from the first season, but when it comes to action, it's a tragedy. At least the last episode was somewhat relieving with the couples that were formed, and that's the only thing this season is worth.
