Following the first and second seasons, the production of the third season of the anime "Kaguya-sama: Love is War" has been announced, and it is said that the third season will be particularly noteworthy compared to the previous seasons. Seasons one and two were both excellent, high-quality anime, but readers have high expectations for season three that will surpass those expectations even further. So, in this article, we will take a closer look at what is noteworthy about season three of this work, which is arguably the most anticipated work of the season. Fans who only own the anime version and are unfamiliar with the progress of the original work should definitely check it out.
The subtitle of season three is "Ultra Romantic"!!
First, please pay attention to the subtitle of the third season. The subtitle of the third season is "Ultra Romantic." The series features many episodes in which the relationship between protagonist Shirogane and heroine Kaguya, who have been engaged in a sophisticated battle of wits up until now, progresses slightly. This means that many of the plot twists and hidden settings that have been laid out so far will be revealed one after another.
Ishigami is the key person!?
Furthermore, the character we want you to pay the most attention to this season isn't Shirogane or Kaguya, but Ishigami, who has been treated as a minor character until now. Fans who haven't read the original manga may be surprised, but this season Ishigami plays a bigger role than ever before. Fans who love Ishigami's character should definitely look forward to it.
Koyasu-senpai
That's because, midway through Season 3, Ishigami joins the cheerleading squad for the sports festival and falls in love at first sight with Koyasu-senpai, who is also a member of the cheerleading squad. In this series, the romance is mostly focused on Kaguya and Shirogane, but no other character has had such a detailed portrayal of the beginning of their romance, so many viewers may be surprised by this sudden shift in focus. Season 3 will primarily focus on the love game between Koyasu-senpai and Ishigami.
Kaguya and Shirogane's relationship too!?
Of course, the relationship between Kaguya and Shirogane is also well-depicted. While Shirogane gets the better of Ishigami in the first and middle parts of the series, there's a hidden dramatic comeback at the very end, making this a story that fans who have been curious about their relationship throughout seasons one and two will surely enjoy.
Let's start with the sports festival!
As mentioned above, Ishigami's feelings of love are clearly depicted from the sports festival onwards. The sports festival will of course be depicted in the third season, so when the sports festival arrives, make sure to focus on Ishigami first.
Growing Up Ishigami
In Seasons 1 and 2, Ishigami was a cynical and shady character, but in Season 3, he gradually matures into a well-behaved young man through his interactions with Koyasu-senpai. In contrast to Shirogane and Kaguya, who are unable to properly communicate their own actions, causing their relationships to become increasingly strained, Ishigami's straightforward action as soon as he realizes his feelings is sure to be a heartwarming sight for viewers.
Considering Ishigami's Changes
If you think about these changes in Ishigami for a moment, you'll realize his true role in the series and what makes him such an interesting character. Season 3 will truly reveal Ishigami's hidden background and true character, so all Ishigami fans should definitely not miss it.
Ishigami hasn't been bad so far.
As expected, Ishigami has been a very polarizing character up until now, and there are many negative reactions from some quarters. However, isn't it precisely because of the character of Ishigami that this series is able to go beyond being a pure romance story and also have a comical element? With that in mind, it's a bit disappointing that the character will change slightly in the third season.
Ishigami in Season 3
However, overall, it's true that many readers prefer the Ishigami portrayed in Season 3. He wasn't a good guy from the beginning, but rather, his love for his senior has led him to change his behavior and work hard, which is a very positive impression.
Keep an eye on Ishigami!
In any case, keep your eyes on Ishigami in Season 3. While he received little attention in Seasons 1 and 2, he has many hidden aspects and charms, and the moment when all of these hidden aspects are suddenly unleashed is a rare experience. For fans who have followed Kaguya-sama for a long time, this season will undoubtedly change your impression of Ishigami in particular, so be sure to pay close attention to him.
The school festival is super hot!?
As mentioned above, season 3 features many fascinating events, including the sports festival and cultural festival. The sports festival and cultural festival in particular share the common theme of being stories of Ishigami's growth, so we're looking forward to the final cultural festival and other events.
Kaguya and Shirogane barely interact
However, due to the focus on Ishigami, the interaction between Kaguya and Shirogane is somewhat shallow. While the two's interactions are still depicted as usual, there's no denying that the volume is somewhat lacking. Fans who are only interested in Kaguya and Shirogane's relationship may find the early, middle, and final chapters a bit boring.
A Date with Senior at the School Festival
While the school festival is a hotly anticipated event, one that deserves special attention is Ishigami and Koyasu's school festival date. The story will keep readers on the edge of their seats in many ways, including Ishigami's inner conflict before inviting Koyasu on the school festival date. We can expect exciting developments unlike any previous Kaguya-sama series.
Will Ishigami's love be fulfilled?
No matter what, I can't wait to see how Ishigami's love story will end. While the plot of the anime doesn't necessarily follow the original, if you're still curious, it's not too late! Read the original and find out!
Keep your eyes on Kaguya and Shirogane in the second half!
Of course, the relationship between Kaguya and Shirogane is also attracting attention. While Ishigami is featured almost exclusively at the school festival, the latter half of the event focuses on the relationship between Shirogane and Kaguya in detail.
This long-running rivalry may finally be settled!?
Because there's not much to see, the ending is packed with shocking twists and turns. The school festival brings a major conclusion that will determine the fate of the two characters' romantic battle of wits. Fans who enjoyed seasons one and two of the anime should definitely watch it with the feeling that they're witnessing the end of their relationship.
Of course, there's also the previous battle of wits!!
Even though the show will be concluded, the battle of wits between the two characters, which remains the core of the show's appeal, will continue to be depicted in detail in the third season, so please continue to look forward to that as well.
What to look forward to in season 3!!
Season 3 of this series will feature new developments never before seen in previous seasons. The thrilling story unfolds at a completely different pace from seasons 1 and 2, truly worthy of the title "Ultra Romantic."
An even more evolved battle of wits in love!
The romantic battles of wit depicted so far have evolved into even more sophisticated and interesting battles, so we're looking forward to seeing even more evolved battles of wit in this work.
Ishigami is so hot!
This season will be one to focus on not only Kaguya and Shirogane, but also Ishigami. In addition to the content explained above, I believe there are other episodes worth paying attention to for Ishigami, so please watch this season as if it were Ishigami's season.
Prepare for the ultimate ending!
Season 3 will be an action-packed season. We can't wait to see the ultimate twist at the end. Whether you're a fan of the original manga and already know the ending, or you've only been following the anime and don't know the ending, this is sure to be a treat, so be sure to check it out!
