  A Spectacular Story with a Spectacular Cast This Season.

  All in all, Dungeon ni Deai wo Motomeru no wa Machigatteiru Darou ka Season 3 was honestly the best season to date, jumping back from a pretty null season 2. I was always intrigued by the concept of Danmachi. On paper, it seemed like the ultimate anime, with a strong not-an-idiot protagonist, reliable supporting characters, no over-the-top antagonist, and a very very interesting story. This season did not disappoint. Introducing additional characters, Oomori Fujino did not fail on the character development, as it was on point leading up to the spectacular climax at the end. J.C. Staff isn't exactly one of the well-received studios, as many of their works just seem dull and super disappointing, but for some reason, the animation, directing, effects, and even the OSTs fit so well to this anime it made the ending even more wonderful. I've got to say, after watching over 200 animes, this was the first for me to shed a tear to. Even I didn't cry to those sad animes like Kimi no Suizou wo Tabetai or Shigatsu wa Kimi no Uso. Enough of my blabbering now, let's get into the review.

  __Story__

  ---

  With the new season, the story takes an unexpected turn off the track, I was skeptical at first because seemed more like a side story than an actual story for the plot, but all in all the story intrigued me the most out of the majority of animes I've watched over the past few years, and boy, what an ending to the story this season. 24/25

  ---

  __Characters__

  ---

  With a new story, there are many new characters introduced, all to play a big role. I was honestly surprised how many characters were introduced and even more surprised that all of them had a big role to play through this season's story. The concept was honestly pretty wack but in the end, I guess it all worked out. 24/25

  ---

  __Animation and Effects__

  ---

  I'm going to be honest, J.C. Staff's animation is pretty crap in other animes. To me, they just seem to be a pump and dump type studio, lousy work while pumping out as many low-quality animes they could possibly can in a single season. But in Danmachi, it suddenly becomes on point, the animation, directing, music, everything. If only they could continue this momentum into other animes. The OSTs give such a good feel throughout the anime, especially towards the end of the anime. 25/25

  ---

  __Art__

  ---

  Usually, I never take points off an anime's art unless the art is significantly different from a traditional anime's art style, and Danmachi follows the traditional art style of anime, clean, sleek, and cute. Nothing disappointing here. 25/25

  DanMachi's third season shows significant growth from the first two.

  I don't normally write long reviews, but I wrote like 2000 characters in what my short review was supposed to be so I decided I'd clean it up a bit instead. First and foremost what I can say is that this season had a great deal of heart that the previous ones lacked, "Be a fool, Bell Cranel.", how the minotaur here parallels the original Greek myths, and the ideological conflict that surrounded the sentient monsters all made for an emotional center to this season that wasn't there for me earlier in the series. Enough so that I felt myself excited to see more from this season's main conflict. Aside from that there was some really impressive action choreography this season, and a great deal of the final fight was a visual spectacle. Bell's character avoids the more severe traps that await a power fantasy like this, so I haven't felt my interest in his growth and adventure wain as he grows stronger.

  This show isn't cured of the issues I have with the first two. I find most of Hestia familia, aside from Bell who I've found charming throughout, to be rather dull. Hestia herself is also rather annoying in my opinion. Along with that Ais, has felt incredibly flat for the majority of the series, and it leaves me struggling to feel any particular chemistry between her and Bell. Though that point also leads to one of this season's points of growth, that is for the first time in the series she's actually felt like a real character, rather than a blank object of Bell's affections. I almost wish her ideological conflict with Bell had stretched out longer, though I felt its resolution was mostly satisfying in how it was carried out. The comedy is also more often than not grating, though not without a redeeming joke here or there.

  Maybe the greatest relative strength here is that, unlike season two which spent 99% of its runtime not in a dungeon, DanMachi's third season returned to the high potential worldbuilding that the show offered in its, still admittedly rather mediocre, first season. Don't get me wrong, I don't unilaterally dislike the god politicking. In fact the Hermes and Freya stuff this season was rather interesting, but the more overt social conventions of the gods that dominated season two were a total bore in my opinion. The fleshing out of the dungeon, the inclusion of the Xenos, and the information we gather on Daedalus this season all made for a much richer world than had existed prior. Ultimately I wanted to give this season its flowers, I was incredibly skeptical of this show after the first two seasons so for an improvement like this, imperfect as the show remains, I'm quite pleased.
