After hearing the announcement of the 3rd season I decided to check out the anime. I know the anime is old but with the upcoming season there may be new fans that might want to check out the show.
In this season they tried to do way to much for a 25 episode anime, with the pacing being off. We got so much useless info dumps which I felt didn't really matter because they would just add another rule which would make the other obsolete. New threats were being introduced left and right with none of them being solved. The princess adventurer they
...
introduced in the first season left us at a cliff hanger, and you would expect them to follow up on that. Instead of her planning an attack or strategizing they showed her moping around and grieving.
The shows pacing and threat dumps could have been solved easily if they didn't focus on side characters too much. This shows biggest issue is showing us useless character development. Side characters like: Minori, Touya, Isuzu, Roundelhouse, get way too much screen time than they deserve. In both seasons of the anime specially in this season the took up 80% of screen time. While we got to see the MC's party in bits and pieces most of the anime focus on those 4. They get so much screen time but in an actual raid with the MC we only see Minori fight and frankly that goes for only 2-3 seconds of Shiro saying something to her. I would have loved to see more of what Kazuna was up to in other servers or what Plant Hwyaden was up to. Instead of getting that we get an episode of valentines day about cooking sweets. Isuzu and Roundelhouse have a strange relationship, her treating him like a dog is very disturbing. This anime should be called "Side characters and maybe the MC". I will keep the review short so, if you like a story that doesn't involve the MC then this anime is for you. I just can't see myself passing this.
