Kaguya-sama wa Kokurasetai: Ultra Romantic
The elite members of Shuchiin Academy's student council continue their competitive day-to-day antics. Council president Miyuki Shirogane clashes daily against vice-president Kaguya Shinomiya, each fighting tooth and nail to trick the other into confessing their romantic love. Kaguya struggles within the strict confines of her wealthy, uptight family, rebelling against her cold default demeanor as she warms to Shirogane and the rest of her friends. Meanwhile, council treasurer Yuu Ishigami suffers under the weight of his hopeless crush on Tsubame Koyasu, a popular upperclassman who helps to instill a new confidence in him. Miko Iino, the newest student council member, grows closer to the rule-breaking Ishigami while striving to overcome her own authoritarian moral code. As love further blooms at Shuchiin Academy, the student council officers drag their outsider friends into increasingly comedic conflicts. (Source: MAL Rewrite) Note: The first episode had an advanced screening on April 2, in both New York & Los Angeles.

*Potential spoilers below Love is complicated, scary, fleeting, but certainly not war. For Kaguya and Miyuki, though, it is. For months upon months, they have played this game where whoever confesses first loses, having lots of fun along the way, but when faced with a time constraint, was all this…

Read full review on AniList →Kaguya-sama, love is war is an S tier show. Now, I don't write reviews for anime often because, frankly, I am a cringe individual who spends most of his time inside, however, if there is one thing I am certain about, that is that all of my opinions are objectively correct, and no one can stand in op…

Read full review on AniList →I am shocked at how much this anime (especially this season) was able to pull off. Before I started watching this anime, I thought that it was one of those imperial-themed isekai anime with a bit of romance involved but I was way off point here. This anime is not an Isekai, instead, it might be the…

Read full review on AniList →Comedy tends to be subjective, as they say. Ultimately, we perceive art as beautiful, exciting, and hilarious. We define the meaning of these words ourselves, and to me, Kaguya-sama: Love is War - Ultra Romantic is subjectively perfect. The writing in Kaguya-sama remains some of the sharpest on tel…
Read full review on AniList →I often find myself wondering what the future classics will be from media in our time.

Read full review on AniList →To this point, my experience with romantic comedies has been unremarkable. It's no surprise why. I'm quite picky with how I like my romances, and romantic comedies have a handicap from the get-go.

Read full review on AniList →Fundamentally, Kaguya-sama: Love is War Ultra Romantic is a tale of two geniuses too proud to admit they are in love, although by this third season, it rises beyond its romantic-comedy framework and turns into an emotional third act, character climax, and tonal equilibrium.
