DESCRIPTION

Anime adaptation of Part 2 (Volume 3 & 4) of Honzuki no Gekokujou.

An immense display of mana in front of the Knight’s Order has earned Myne the attention of nobles. The result? Yet more people appear hoping to exploit the young apprentice shrine maiden’s value. And so the High Priest decides to shelter Myne in the temple to safeguard her from the impending danger he foresees. But Myne’s main concern is still books, and she works to advance the printing process so that their price falls and more people can buy them. Her long winter in the temple away from her family begins, but everything changes as the harsh winter passes and the spring nears, offering a glimpse into what the future holds for this biblio-fantasy.

REVIEWS

74/100
Still as fun as ever, but arguably less compelling
Our beloved bookworm is back for yet another season, and it’s a little different what I had remembered from the excellent Season 2. The story went a bit away from the slice of life elements in creating new inventions and reading books, and we actually see a bit of stakes in this season, with dangers of Myne being kidnapped, and even some action sequences.

The reason why I loved this series was the slice of life elements which even felt a bit educational at times, and while those themes still exist in this season, it felt more action and politically oriented, which isn’t what I had known this series to be, but I understand the change of pace.

My grading criteria: Story: /25 Art: /10 Music: /10 Characters: /20 Enjoyment /15 Thematic Execution /20

STORY: 17.5/25

It’s some of the same elements from the first two seasons, but the stakes seem a bit higher this time around. Myne has to be careful as many people from the nobility are targeting her, and it could even affect her family. In all these events, there are new characters, including Myne’s new younger brother Kamil, Dirk, an abandoned child with the Devouring, and Sylvester, a notable noble with a rather interesting personality. Each have their own quirks and contributions to the story.

In the most high stakes situations, the thing I found issue with was the execution of them. Things get solved rather easily at times, and the villains aren’t doing a whole lot of stuff in the fight scenes either, heck, sometimes the protagonists are just talking to each other while the fight is happening, and the villains are just off screen, standing there. It’s supposed to be tense, but the overall feel of the story or even the tense moments don’t present themselves in the most suspenseful way. With all the build up, it didn’t feel like an effective climax was executed. 

ART: 7.9/10

The animation is fine, but the action sequences aren’t all that flashy, which was unfortunate, but I can’t fault it, since action isn’t the main focus of the series. Still colourful and vibrant, fitting of the world.

MUSIC: 6.5/10

Opening and ending are mediocre songs this time around, and the soundtrack sometimes takes away from the immersion in tense sequences. Not always fitting of the atmosphere.

CHARACTERS: 14.8/20

The overall characterization wasn’t as great as the last two series in my opinion because there are just a lot of side characters that don’t play much of a role at all. I would have loved to see more Benno and Lutz screen time, since they had a solid role in the story before. Felt like a two person show between Myne and Ferdinand, and while those two are still as incredible as can be, there are just too many underdeveloped characters.

ENJOYMENT: 12/15

Some parts were boring, but there were still many intriguing moments.

THEMATIC EXECUTION: 15/20

The themes have a more complex feel to them this season, and I appreciate the plot progression and further world building. The action sequences were handled a bit awkwardly, but overall, still the Bookworm series that I enjoy.

OVERALL: 73.7/100

Notably a bit more bland than previous seasons in terms of emotional impact, but it’s still a well done show overall in its slice of life elements, it’s just a bit unfocused in its tense situations, and if the technical aspects were handled just a bit better, I’m sure the overall atmosphere of the show can shine much brighter!
