oh goddamn it they did it again.

They did the recap thing from the last episode again but worse this time 💀

I have to wonder whether when writing/adapting this season they got to this point and realized they had less content than they had runtimes to air in the allocated cour season...and realized they would have to pad things out with recaps.

Because 5 minute recaps + the OP is absolutely criminal.

This is borderline a short at this point

They did it well with the earlier episodes, compressing the events of 1-2 (maybe 3) manga chapters into a single episode. It's like they realized that they have 13 episodes planned, not 11 like last season. (Honestly, I think they would've been better off with just 11 or 12 episodes at most, not fucking 13.)

Any real monitery benefit of having planning 13 eps instead of 11 ? Cuz this shit just ruins the viewing experience

At least I can skip recaps, it would suck if the pacing took a hit to fit it all in the episode. But then again, they could have experimented with some original choreography or something to make up for it, but that's also risky.

2 5-minute recaps makes 10 minutes. include the ED and that's 13 minutes. They could've cut one episode entirely and just give us a no-OP-no-ED episode like Re:zero s2 loved to do.

Literally, the last 2 episodes had the content of one episode.
