Bungo Stray Dogs is not a perfect show. However from the first season to the third it has become my bias and one that I am greatly fond of. The cinematography OST and characters are all loveable. After each episode there is a sense of satisfaction yet forlorn. SEASON THREE REVIEW I AUDIO/MUSIC 9 VISUALS/DESIGN/CINEMATOGRAPHY 9.5 If there is one thing that Bungo Stray Dogs excels in it is their OST use of soundtrack and their unbeatable intro designs. I love their use of typography which blends well with the background and the themes of the arc. Their cinematography and execution of dialogue captures the audience with just enough suspense to keep you on your feet. Their OST and use of music blends well together. From techno punk rock and classical. The synchronised opening and ending scenes is always the most satisfying to watch giving the audience a sense of fulfilment after each episode. Their entire soundtrack is on my playlist. Kudos. II PLOT 9 PACING 8.5 ENDING 8.5 The plot this season is episodic but has a good balance of story and character development with just enough humour and melancholy that mixes in well with each other. A Arahabaki Arc B The Ace and the enslaved boy Ep 29 C Heruisu and Portrait of a Father Ep 31 E Fitzgerald Rising Ep 32 F The Cannibalism Arc III CHARACTERS 9 A Character Progression One thing I appreciate is the small progressions in character development that makes each character more human than before. B Display of Emotions Stone Studios excels in displaying emotions. Not only through facial expressions but also through voice. C Dimensionality The depth and dimensionality of characters has always been something I deeply appreciate in Bungo Stray Dogs. It does not overplay the goodness or the badness of each character nor organisation. However in every decision there is always a wellthroughout reason behind it. Although this does not justify any immoral actions it gives the viewers an insight on why each character decides on a particular decision in the first place. D Relationships and Roles I enjoyed the partnerships and teamwork in this season. IV ENJOYMENT 9 The humour has improved. V PERSONAL IMPACT 8.5
