I think I give it a 7.5/10. Over all it was a really fun ride and I enjoyed the characters. I cried several times. The cast of villains wasn't the strongest though, when it comes to Shonen elements it peaked at Nagisa vs the crazy 'dad' guy, and even that disappointed me a little because they didn't give that 'bloodlust' the show talks so much about a chance to breathe. There were twists about people's identities that were cool on paper but weren't explored as well as they could have been. The boyfriend was a lame final boss reveal that pretty much existed to let Korosensei protect the class one more time. I would've preferred if the story went all the way with the principal instead of having him bow out.

It kinda mishandles some topics like Nagisa's abuse imo. In general I would have liked to see some deeper development on characters like Nagisa; to be clear, the ensemble cast is handled really well and I knew everyone, but some depth was inevitably sacrificed. The acknowledgment of Nagisa as the strongest assassin happens in small bursts instead of a continuous display of his unfolding potential. Often the show comes out and tells the viewer Nagisa is strong like when he snuck up on Karasuma. We don't truly see him flexing his abilities until some moments among the last 10 episodes.

Decent soundtrack. Good character designs. The lighting in the finale was pretty bad though, I get what they were going for but visual clarity would've made for a better choice.

I love Nagisa!

the principle character pissed me off so much and i wanted so much worse to happen to him
anyway you should read the authors other manga Majin Tantei Nougami Neuro
it has an anime but it changes the story IIRC and sucks

read the manga its amazing and it has much better villains
its the story of a demon who loves puzzles but is too good at them he has found them start to become boring. so he went to earth to solve murders because humans make the best puzzles
he basically forces a teenage girl to become the face of his detective agency so he does the work and she gets the credit
he abuses her constantly and its played for laughs.

I'm not really familiar with how Summon Sorceress is abused. I kinda checked out for most of the Link format because Vrains was boring >_>. I came back and not only were cards like Astrograph and Skullcrobat banned but cards I didn't even realize could be problematic like Supreme King Starving Venom. The OCG handles the whole situation much better by letting you play 1 of each while limiiting more cards.

she was an easy to summon link 3. all you needed was 2 monsters of the same type
which was easy to do with isolde and needlefiber
when she is summoned you can summon a monster from your deck to your opponents field. and you can special summon a monster from your deck that is the same type as a monster she points to (one of her link markers points to the opponents field)

you could use her effect to get into very powerful link monsters and outright disgusting combos
but on her own she wasnt to bad it was really just needlefiber and isolde that made her effect abusable

Needlefiber is still such an outrageous card to me lol. Summon a synchro tuner monster on your opponent's turn using itself?? There are great accel synchro targets even for decks that aren't huge pendulum engines, cards that let you draw, or even discard from your opponent's hand. I run it in my Performapal deck to go into Metaphys Horus on my opponent's turn while gaining advantage with Formula Synchron.

You're 100% right. I was actually thinking of bumping to mention that lol. A lot of anime fumble their sendoff but this was a beautiful exception!
