Enen no Shouboutai: San no Shou Part 2

“Hope”.
I kinda forgot what the hell was even going on after S2, but it quickly turned into Catholics + some Knight Order guys going full war against the Evangelicals. The plot got wild with all the crazy religious stuff.

The animation in some parts was straight-up insane, especially those long live-action-looking shots. Felt like they dropped acid in the studio or something. I swear I needed drugs just to keep up with the whole season lmao.

Overall I liked it though. The final episode isn't even out, but they had that animation quality that borderline felt like hentai in Ep12 with those buildings appearing out ... of nowhere and seeing "mob" character designs lmao. Bullet throbbing indeed... Characters-wise, Tamaki Kotatsu is wife. That "old hag" line felt like the embodiment of today’s millennial women, not gonna lie.

If you’re into over-the-top action, religious insanity, and story that makes your brain melt, this show is it. Solid 8/10 from me.

It's safe to say I'm confused.

Thinking back where things started, this was not on my cards on where this would end up.

Before this season, things were more or less based on ''rational'' world dynamics but when they introduced the literal imaginary side of the world, I was sort of drawn back. I get the playfulness and it feels like the writers just had some fun and I guess I'm down with it, but I can't help but wonder if this could have gone in a different direction. It feels like everything goes now and the heft behind the plot points has dimmed a ... little.

For some reason there's been a trend in anime, where the 'less is more' has gone out the window and now the maximalistic 'more is more' has taken a very sturdy foothold in the industry. And I don't like it. I miss simpler storylines. I don't know if I'm just stupid but this feels put together in hurry and things aren't thought true.

I guess this season confirmes the Soul eater theory? Not the two shows I would've bundled together but whatever, I have absolutely no preference on it. I wonder how they're gonna link up in the end.
