So far season 3 is just as laughably retarded as I expected.

I'm pretty sure if your parashoot doesn't open after falling out of a plane you'll die or at the very least shatter a few bones on impact even if you land in water. Hitting water at those speeds and with the form he had would be the same as hitting a solid wall.

It's Index, what do you expect?

>>31822
To poke fun of and laugh at piss poor writing from a guy who's clearly very out of touch with reality.

This season needs a lot more Kuroko.

This season needs more Index, she's literally the namesake and she barely even appears.

>>31903
Amen to that!
I'm glad to see she's out of that chair. That was always depressing.

>>31904
Hasn't that been the case for the first two seasons as well?

The animation quality of the 3rd season is all over the place.
For the most part, the filler/comic relief sections are QUALITY AS ALL HELL and then things get a bit better once the story arc starts moving again, but it is still very inconsistent.

Well this season sure seems like one hell of a retarded clusterfuck so far, not that I expected anything more.
Transitions feel almost randomly placed at times with unnecessary flash backs and frequent cut away from scenes that might have been interesting to see but instead leave issues and events unresolved. This makes the pacing pretty bad too with episodes like 05 for example feeling like multiple ep edited together to save time and money while cutting out important information in the process. Little of what remains makes much sense and it's really hard to follow what's going on sometimes. I can't even tell if one arc takes place before or after another one in the case of the first and second ones of this season. I'm guessing the second arc takes place before the first? wtf?
"Who the fuck is that, what the fuck just happened, what are they talking about, what's going on, how did that last scene get resolved? why where when who what?!" There's so many "wait what?" moments I've lost count.

>>31914
I get the feeling they're just trying to animate the fight scenes and forgoing the context to get as many in as possible.

>>31915
That's the thing though, they skip some fights all together in some cases.
How do you set up a mystery character and their powers, set up a fight with that character, then skip the fight/reveal and use a couple of throw away lines to imply they beat or killed that character?

>>31917
They really, really rushed that arc.

They want to include only the stuff that will be relevant later (key information bits during a fight, and the outcome) but the stuff that make the arc interesting or worth watching (like the fights) are all removed.

...and it was done to make room for fanservice!

I really like Frenda god damn it ;_;

I wonder how many takes the VA took to get this right.

>>31919
As if this season wasn't bad enough, but with that, yeah no dropped like a brick.

>>31931
They really didn't deserve that. As if being tortured and killed wasn't bad enough, no one seemed to even care. She gets her body dragged around like trash then dumped in the middle of the road never to be mentioned again. That shit's fucking depressing. Even the brown chick who showed up out of nowhere and turned into literal ribbons ended up okay with a scene showing her recovering in a hospital during the epilogue. Frenda meanwhile gets no love. ;_;

Looks like we get an index arc next.

so much for the nun wearing highly conservative clothing. I guess JC staff needs to pimp even her out for BD sales.

>>31963
It's about time the show live up to it's name.

Misaka Misaka!

The new ED has some great visuals.

Also nice that the second accelerator group arc isn't being rushed to such an extent that it ends up being an incoherent mess.

Well, it was good to hear Kurko's voice again, if only for a few seconds before she's forgotten for the rest of the season.

For all the hype of the WWIII arc, I'm woefully disappointed so far. The story is being drip fed at a snail's pace, and jumping between 3 simultaneous fights that so far all end in a deus ex machina is retarded.

>>32219
Why is that? Can't the animation studio take its time telling the story properly?

>>32424
Well, they didn't.
My best guess would be that it was rushed so that they could spend more time telling the story in the later arcs and fit within the cour.
