The episode feels like a TV series that finds out four weeks before filming the season finale that it is going to be a series finale. Did they not know they only had 13 episodes to work with?

This. My head was spinning at how much they crammed into the episode. For a series that has more consistently exceeded expectations than any other title this season, this was a significant misstep. |

Episode 13
"Hit it, girls!" I actually really liked their song this time. I wonder how they manage to write the lyrics and tune on the fly so that they're all together. I mean this doesn't seem like a piece they would've practiced in their songbook. 
I think I have only one question after all this. How did Ley appear in the shadows as Avos while he was unconscious in the center of the arena after the sword championship? I'm perfectly satisfied with this ending. Clearly mushroom gratin is the true source of Anos' power. Lol at the spoiler[10,000 grandchildren] joke. Would watch another season gladly, but I don't think it needs one. |

Good news, Mahouka season 2 is airing next season. It's like basically the same thing, right? |

Nah, Tatsuya has no sense of humor. He couldn't tell a dad joke if his life depended on it.
I realized I have another question still: why did Ley's parents kick him out? He apparently is a pure demon after all since his mother just picked him up off the street, so what pissed them off to that extent? |

Despite being born to a mage family, he was unable to use magic. They kicked him out before discovering his swordsmanship skills since their specialization never gave him the opportunity to demonstrate his talent. In reality he could use magic, but only holy magic. Revealing that to anyone would have blown his cover. Last edited by Seagloom on Sat Sep 26, 2020 6:03 pm; edited 1 time in total |

Yes, but Tatsuya can create three consecutive psion waves of varying oscillation frequencies, calibrate them so that all three converge on a single spot and then generate a powerful surge. Isn't that amazing? 
Eh, I thought this was a pretty dumb show, but it was slightly fun, I guess. The fanclub girls' singing cracks me up. It had pretty cool opening and ending so extra points for that. P.S. Did Anos' VA sing the opening in this last episode? |

Well I enjoyed it. The behaviour of Kanon until the last episode makes no sense but I enjoyed it. I think I would of preferred it if the humans had rejected the call to slaughter demons more (the common folks not the people from the academy). Since they had been living with and cross breeding with demon kind for 1000 years.
Ow well like this series all plot is waved away with the "A wizard did it" clause. And it was quite fun. |

Not bad. Anos should create a band with his fan club. |

Definitely an 'ok' ending. After watching it still wouldn't surprise me if this was an anime original ending. Still, I'd be happy to see a second season announced.
That would definitely be an interesting plot line to see Though I don't think we'd have a Tuvix situation as it sounded like both personalities were still separate as we heard both voices.

While rushed jerga was only a disc one boss so there is plenty of material for season 2. Also Misha and the other one are two separate beings , they actually always were they are reincarnationa of two sister goddesses . Then staying as one being makes no sense .

Also I feel like at least a little bit of the Kanon inconsistency can be explained by spoiler[the fact that there are two Avos Dilhevia's, the second one, the one that appeared at the arena and was likely responsible for Melheis acting unpredictably at that time, is Shin Reglia who appeared in the one flashback with Anos. His right hand man.] |

Sorta the point, since his psyche was destroyed and he was rendered virtually emotionless after being experimented on to be turned into a living weapon. By his own family no less. Again, maybe watch the show, before just dumping on it constantly. Definitely makes more sense than spending 13 episodes trying to kill Anos, just so you can save Anos, after 2000 years of not dealing with Jerga, then easily dealing with Jerga by letting Anos easily deal with Jerga. Then there's the whole "I'm gonna bring peace by LITERALLY spurring on full scale war, where thousands of demons and humans will die." Or the, "I can rewrite all of demon history so that everyone forgets Anos, but I can't rewrite all of human history so that everyone forgets Jerga and Asc." Or the, "I can fix your problem, Eleonore, with a snap of my fingers, but I think I'll let you become an army of 10,000 spirit nukes, just so we have something to do in the finale." Honestly, I'm with Richard. How is anybody watching Misfit and not scratching their head? |

Again? When was before? And if I hadn't watched the show, how would I know he has no sense of humor? oO In any case, merely observing that fact is hardly "dumping on it" at all, let alone "constantly." It was simply saying why the two series aren't interchangeable, a sentiment with which it seems you agree, so I don't know why you're getting so testy about it. |
