Love is war is a good series, i won't deny that but season 3 kinda just flopped it upside down which is weird because i actually think the story is good, it's just that the execution wasn't perfect. Now season 1 and 2 were both perfect examples on how to balance your characters, the main characters (Shinomiya and Shirogane) are both entertaining and get a lot of screentime in the first 2 seasons, but this is also in season 3, the thing is with the main characters is that the side characters also matter a lot. I don't know why but i feel like the
...
side characters got fully blown out of the the entire plot. Chika only really got 1 episode where she was prevalent in and Iino got fully blown out of the series. What about Ishigami though? He got attention, right? Well, yes but in my opinion, not really in the right way. Shinomiya and Shirogane are the main couple in this series but Ishigami now has a crush i guess... There's nothing wrong with having 2 couples in the same series but i don't like how they just randomly switched perspectives and called them 'parts'. Like bro, i just wanna get to the business already. Now onto enjoyment, probably the most important factor into rating an anime, i already mentioned this but the main characters should be supported by the side characters to actually be an entertaining character, if they aren't, 90% of the time the series feels empty and boring since the main characters are most of the show. And that 10% which is actually entertaining is usually very short, liw is also very repetitive, this issue also occurs in the first 2 seasons but i feel like its more prevalent here because the times where it is repetitive is with the 2 main characters. Now to the ending, the ending that made liw gain .20 points and make it tied with fmab, i'm not gonna spoil anything but all i would like to say is that it's a cringefest with very specific things that happens which ruins Kaguya's very specific plan. Personally, i don't like this season but entertainment and comedy is subjective (even though i feel like there was a lot less comedy and a lot more romance in this season). I can see why someone would like this show if they just loved romance but i don't really dig this style right now with Kaguya Sama, yes i do like my romance then and there but i think i would rather watch Squid Girl then oh wow i like this person now lets come up with this extremely specific way to confess to them which gets ruined by a extremely specific way.
