It seems weird to refer to something as the "final chapter" when it probably won't adapt the ending. Since this doesn't happen till next year I guess it's possible the manga will have ended by then but even if it has I just can't imagine them being able to do it all in 4 episodes unless it rushed and they leave out a lot of shit, or the episodes are longer then a typical anime episode (which even then I struggle to see how they could do it).
So, over the past couple of weeks I'm seeing quite positive impressions on Kado, Rage of Bahamut: Virgin Soul and Tsuki ga Kirei, so I assume the season may not be that bad after all?
Also, I assume that I need to watch Genesis before Virgin Soul? I think I read something about returning characters and such.

Nah, you can see his other posts in the thread, I don't think he's read the manga. It's more like he's just really sure about that part of the speculation being right. And to be fair, it's been a theory since the first season. Multiple people have been speculating the same thing in that very thread.
It's still a pretty confusing way to post about speculation, tho.

Uh. So I guess the manga will be finishing up within the next year or so? I've been reading it since I finished the show and it is fairly enjoyable. No idea how they will cram so much development in 4 episodes, unless they just pick a few highlights from the 2 main characters, and no side stuff.

Why I can't be under Benten's heel? Is that too much to ask??

This season was never bad to begin with. But yea Tsukigakirei and Kado are pretty great.
As for virgin soul you can watch it without having seen Genesis.
Unless Duckroll lied to me.

This is an unexpected treat. As long as it continues the uncommonly good sound direction the previous ReLIFE anime had, I'll be satisfied.
Looking at the news on the official anime website, they explicitly say that this final chapter will cover the story from after the events of episode 13 to the end of Arata's ReLIFE experiment.
Hopefully that means that the manga is finishing up this year. It's been dragging on for a while now.
Cut out all the arcs about Rena related drama, focus only on KaizakixHishiro. They could pull it off.

Ugh Benten is back? Looks like my spring time is over. Not even cartoon network canceling her prevents her from showing up.
You don't have to watch Genesis, but you will get more out of it if you have seen S1.
It's set 10 years after the first season, so many things have changed, and the protaganist as well as the villain are new characters, but most of the supporting cast are from Genesis.

This show is turning out to be what I hoped it was, the definitive way of going through the contents of the manga in a much more digestible way. The manga tried to churn along as best as possible, but I feel that monthly release schedule only did it more harm than good. Having the content come out weekly helps to keep up with the developments for all characters, since everything will still be fresh in your mind. Production is still rock solid also, which is great.

Huh interesting, I guess that means the manga will definitely be over by next year then. Still can't see how they would do that in 4 episodes though, unless maybe they focus only on Arata stuff and ignore all the side character story shit. Guess we'll just have to wait and see.
Oooh, oooh, what happens?

Sounds tame as hell considering most LN adaptions have similar scenes in them. Not sure where the shock is coming from.

Wasn't the scene everyone was judging the one about dicks?
I mean the chapters to the series don't get much done.
I think the first series was doing like 5-10 chapters an episode in the first season.
that being said 4 seems small for the final chapter, but it also wouldn't surprise me if they pulled a tsubasa chronicles and just jumped an arc or two trying to get people to buy the manga that came between the two series.

Yeah, it wasn't too bad, I honestly expect worse from this show and gave been surprised how tame it's been.
That was just stupid comedy more than anything. My childish mind got a chuckle out of that..
Yes, this is what I was referring to...

LMAO I love this new tengu. He put Benten on her place. I hope this is the beginning of a rivalry and dispute that turns into romantic feelings so my ship can keep sail because I'm sure some people are hoping for the benten ship. But I sure don't. Fuck that woman.
yeah. It really was. But not every season can be stellar the whole way through I guess. Awkward plot and awkward cameos written in a weird fashion. Genndy still likes to perv out every now and then.
SHAKE IT, BAKE IT, BOOTY QUAKE IT

If I thought it was trying to make a point about the sexualisation of young teenaged kids in anime then I'd give them a pass but 3 episodes in the jokes are starting to seem a way to serve unironic loli and the jokes just aren't that good.

The side character stuff has pretty much ruined the manga. It'd be better without it.

Oh boy, finally a character who isn't willing to just put up with Benten's shit. This is great.

we all know every single one of you is going to keep watching that trash until he tries to fuck the girls or something, and then that's the point all of you pretend the show was always bad lmao
Though to be fair with another example such as Black Bullet, most of us were calling it trash before it got weird, then it just turned into REALLY weird trash.

I got to watch Eromanga-sensei, it does look funny.
Sounds very animegaf, yes.

It's a light novel harem comedy, no one is going to fuck.
I avoid harem shows but don't from what i heard just tease the audience until the end to keep interest with ship teases and waifu wars with a dash of self insert fantasy
Does holding hands count as sex?

For context I watch Prisma Illya so I'm not trying to claim any moral high ground, it's just boring on top of indulging the worst habits. Elf Yamada is fun in full on boasting mode but eh to the sister.

The answer will not make your high school life more exciting.
To reproduce squids (or was it octopi?) hand off a spermatophore, basically a capsule of sperm, to the one they're mating with.
Which is to say yes, hand holding counts as sex given certain constraints.

It only took one episode of dragon maid to cause a storm here.
An image from Prison School would also have sufficed as an answer.

I enjoy most harems for the stupid fun they bring. They usually carry a light-hearted/ comedic tone that I can have fun watching. You can always route for the "best girl," but they will never "win," lol.
Well yeah, that's usually the moral breaking point, lol. Jokes and teasing are one thing, but if they progress it, it's time to peace out.

I know everyone is pretty down on this show, but... idk this isn't as bad in my opinion as what people make it out to be. It sure isn't the second coming of Fate/Zero yet (if that even means anything) but it's a fairly enjoyable show.

Hey some make it. Like Highschool DxD, To Love-Ru, Strike The Blood, etc.
