I gave it an 8 but it was barely so. The season was good for what it was. The animation is still good and the VAs are great. Pacing though this season was just meh. My biggest complaint is that it is 12 episodes of a single game (with one other game, played by another two teams, thrown in haphazardly that honestly I couldn't have cared less about). It just felt that it took way to long to actually end. If this took 12 episodes then how are they supposed to justify any other matches that will be played not taking the same ormore?
