Due to a series of wrong decisions, Blue Exorcist was considered a failure.
The art looks more realistic now, but old fans will need some time to get used to it.
The most common complaint about the first episode was the pacing.
There are a lot of anime sequels this season. One of them is the third season of Blue Exorcist. This title hasn't been so lucky with anime adaptations, but it has a promising story at its core — the children of Satan and an ordinary woman confront their bloodthirsty father.
Fans have high hopes for the new season — they want the anime to finally return to its former glory. The first episode was recently released, and it didn't live up to expectations.
Epic Failure
Blue Exorcist has a very complicated history. The first season of this promising anime was released in 2011. It attracted a lot of attention, and everything would have been fine if the creators hadn't come up with an alternate ending in which the Okumura brothers fight back against Satan.
The lack of manga material was the reason for the rash decision. Viewers had already forgotten about Blue Exorcist by the time the second season was released in 2017, which continued the events of the manga while ignoring the second half of the first season. Due to a series of poor production decisions, Blue Exorcist was considered a failure.
The news of the sequel shocked fans, and the concern was compounded by the fact that a new studio was taking over production. The first episode of the new arc is now available. Another style of drawing immediately catches the eye. It looks more realistic, but old fans will need some time to get used to it.
Also, some people notice the abundance of already known information in the new episode — the Blue Exorcist world structure and character traits are repeated. Although it can't be said that this is done specifically for new viewers — the anime repeats dialog from the manga.
Mind-blowing pacing
The most common complaint about the first episode was the pacing of the story. Despite the fact that this is just an introduction, it was very rushed. The revelation of Mephisto's identity didn't seem quite right — it's an important event, but due to a misplaced appearance at the beginning, it went unnoticed.
There were rumors that the third season would be split into 3 cours — before the Shimane Illuminati Saga mentioned in the title, there are two smaller arcs. However, it is already clear that the Terror of the Kraken arc will not be shown.
The creators started the story with the Academy Seven Wonders arc, but it is also shown in fragments. Some important events are skipped, and the order of the mysteries is broken. There is a possibility that we will see other events later.
So far, Blue Exorcist hasn't had much luck with adaptations.
