I watched Jigokuraku season 2 last week. Overall it was good, but the end of it leaves a bad taste in my mouth. It ends at the start of a giant conflict, and it’s entirely dependent on a character they introduced this season just unilaterally going nuts and nobody in his party trying to reign him in. It reeks of a Deus Ex Machina, which is a big red flag with regards to writing quality.
Overall, I’m not sure if I’m going to bother with season 3, as it looks like it’s about to tank in writing quality. And over the years I’ve grown to distrust the community’s response to shows.
Last week I watched “Though I Am an Inept Villainess”. I didn’t like the first half because the it felt like it kept re-using the same joke over and over. The second half was really good though! It’s a shame it takes so long for things to get going though; I really feel like it would’ve been a better story if the events of the first half were wrapped up much more quickly.
