| I feel like this season wasnt as great as the previous one but I still enjoyed it for the most part. Since there still seem to be some loose threads regarding Fyodor's story, I wouldn't be surprised if we got a 4th season. I doubted we would even get a 3rd season but we did, so I won't count out the possibility of a 4th season to see the story go on. 7/10. |
| People on MAL refuse to actually enjoy watching anime. Your taste in anime isn't a personality trait. MAL is literally just anime Twitter as its own website lol. |
| Overall i think i like the soundtrack of this season the most compared to the other XP lily and the op by granrodeo are really catchy and unskippable every episode Dazai is always cute but i wish he was more involved as usually he cleans up the messes that fyodor was brewing that cafe scene reaction was the best totally worth it XD akutagawa and atsushi are a really great pair really wowed me with that combo move but i still think chuuya and dazai are the best ship i wish this season was more popular on mal cuz people are really missing out hoping for 4th season <3 10/10 |
| Not gonna lie, I chuckled at the end. the plot really has zero depth... it just feels so childish. Though, I still might give the next season a chance, because manga readers are saying that there is more story to Fyodor, and that is the only thing that seems mildly interesting about this show. |

| not as good as the first 2 seasons, but was still solid. felt kinda final tho. i dont expect a s4 |
 |
| Another strong season of Bungou Stray Dogs. Honestly it's one of my favorites in these past few years. 7.5/10 for this season. |
Fortune favours the bold!  |
| Lol, this is just the start of Fyodor’s arc. If you think Fyodor being in prison solves everything, lol then think again. The prison cell will be the man’s next operation base. The latter part of this arc (to be animated in -hopefully if it’s adapted- S4) is where things get a hell of a lot more hype and insane. Lastly, I have to say I loved this season, but some parts were rushed and a bit mishandled. The inclusion of chuuya’s backstory did disrupt the pacing of the present arc as someone pointed despite the backstory was great in itself. Oda’s story (or dazai’s backstory) was heavily tied to the main story and dazai who is pivotal characters, so its inclusion within s2 was largely justified. However, chuuya is not that of pivotal character, so his character backstory could have been done on the side especially that it doesn’t tie much with the present like dazai’s. I would give this season an 8/10, but hey I love this series, and I’m a fan, so heck I’ll give it 9/10 on a personal level. |

| Atsushi and Akutagawa's team up was definitely the best part of this episode, those two were in sync once again just like in the 2nd season's ending. That fusion of their abilities was just awesome to witness! Man i really wanna know what happens next. With Fyodor still out in the open and still being as scary as ever, what could still happen? He was arrested, but i think he will break through easily, i think his major role is still yet to come into play. Well, with all of these things to look forward to, 4th season, i hope you're announced next! 9/10 |
 |
| Amazing episode seeing akutagwa and atsushi work together was amazing |
| I dunno if this season was really better than the previous one, at least the climax seemed lackluster in direct comparison, but I definitely enjoyed it more. And I agree with some users here, a prison cell won't keep Dostoyevsky in check. Looking forward to another season, hopefully we don't have to wait too long. |

| This was better than I ever expected. I thought they would cut lots of content for this episode, but it was awesome. I waited so much to see the "tiger ride" and that final attack. Well, they did take a liiiittle detail off... Chuuya make some noises from the book while he tries to get out there lol A very small detail, but a hilarious one (I think I know why this was made this way.) Dazai and Atsushi´s conversation is heartwarming. To those who think it ended bland, trust me. It´s a good way to end the season, since all of them actually end in a cliffhanger, though it might not look like it. Definitely the best season so far. 9/10, since even being a fan, I see all the flaws here and there, but nothing that won´t make it enjoyable. Now we wait for Storm Bringer and season 4, which probably will come next year. |
| "Could you not talk with me? I'm busy breathing." |
| Fyrdor's face when Dazai was in the cafe...wow even I was shook lol. Fantastic episode though, the music was on point, and the fusion of Atsushi and Akutagawa was amazing!! Really great episode and season. Now gimme 4! |

| I was mindblown by Atsushi in Akutagawa's ability, I thought that was the coolest thing so far. Them working together was great, they make a good team, although they'll fight again in six months. It was a bullshit sort of a rendezvous, but I will accept it. Overall this season wasn't anything special, it sidelined many things from characters to any good tangible plot. The animation was great in every way though! But sometimes those things aren't everything, what counts is how it made you feel every week. And it made me look forward to each and every episode, and i didn't high my expectations. I'll never hate this franchise honestly, even if it was this bad. 8/10 |

| i liked this season and found it much more enjoyable than season 2, this anime has a great story and great characters. i wanna see more of fyodor in season 4, the guy seems like he has a lot going on for him. |
| Decent finale. Dazai getting to Fyodor was definitely worth, that expression on Fyodor's face. xD Overall, I agree with some other people above, while it wasn't as good as the second season I still enjoyed this. It definitely feels like there's still story left as we didn't even get to hear much about Fyodor so I will definitely look forward to a 4th season. 7/10 |
 |
| I kind off din't like the show it made me cringe a little. but still good and all |
| i honestly never enjoyed the fights, especially that Atsushi and Akutagawa. If it's not because im gay of Dazai, i might have never been watching this show. But honestly though, i enjoyed this season more than the previous one. I find the guild dude's, Fyodor's and Dazai's stories very fascinating. So overall, thumbs up; 8/10. + im surprised they suddenly play Tchaikovsky's Waltz of the flower, i just listened to it before i watched it lol. |
| Dazai played a very sinister move with that Fitzgerald collab. Finally the demon Fyodor was captured but he still seems terrifying in defeat. Hope there will be season 4, but it seems likely that this is the best way to conclude the series. |
When someone asks me why I like anime, I'd say Just Because. |
| There are plenty of pretty cringy lines in this show but this episode went all out with those cheesy lines that I had cringe chills throughout the first half. Pretty disappointed we didn't get to see anything of Chuuya and Ranpo after they went in the book and honestly, the majority of the other characters doing anything for this finale. Well at least we get to see Kyouka in a new attire. |
| I don't know what it is about this series that I can never bring myself to give it more or less than a 7. The order I enjoyed the seasons is 2>1>3, but the difference from season to season is minimal. On one hand, it's a good thing that the series is consistent in quality, though on the other, it's beginning to feel static. The battles are cool and flashy, but how many times can the Detective Agency and Port Mafia fight each other and/or team up to fight someone else in brawls that don't result in any significant deaths or lasting consequences? With the way people are hyping Fyodor up, I have high hopes for S4. He had a cool introduction episode, though sort of seemed to peter out after that. |
| It was nice seeing the main characters vulnerable and out smarted by Fydor. One of my problems with this series is how everything is too convenient and how Dazai is just too smart. Sure by the end he figures it out again, but at least for a few episodes it wasn't just cut and dry. It was nowhere near as good as the 2nd imo. This season really stuttered hard in the middle but the last few episodes have been good. |
| Obviously Dazai was going to outsmart Fyodor in the end, but the way the show went about it made the whole thing feel way too easy and convenient, almost as if it isn't really over and as if Fyodor isn't finished just yet. Still, seeing Atsushi and Akutagawa work so well together (even more so than in the fight against Fitzgerald) was interesting. However, this season wasn't as good as season 2 and probably about on par with season 1 in terms of quality. Once it got going, the Fyodor stuff was really interesting and he posed a unique threat to the Detective Agency and Port Mafia, but the problem is it took half the series to even get to that point. And that was after wasting three episodes on some meaningless Dazai and Chuuya flashbacks, then a further couple of episodes of pointless comedy that did nothing for the series. 8/10 |
| Good but not as good as I was hoping. I was hoping for more out of this season but it had the atmosphere of: Hey we randomly got a season 3 so uh...we can't believe it either, watch us do our usual thing. And that was it for the entire season. Fyodor was a unique villain but the resolution felt kinda underwhelming considering the set up. I wasn't expecting a big battle with him in the end but...I was just expecting more like clash of ideals or something at the very end and him seeing everything unravel in front of his eyes. Idk....but either way it was an okay season. About a mild 7 out of 10 for me. |
| Don't believe the hype. |
| MEH season. _______ |
 |
| The team-up of Atsushi & Akutagawa was awesome cool badass! the guild leader helped in capturing Fyodor! 5/5. 8/10. most underrated show of Spring-2019 Season! |
 |
| the way were tiger fought was so awesome...good way to end the season |
 |
| Very good episode that wrapped things up and gave me a lot to look forward too. The actions scene was well done and the abilities shown were superb. 8/10 |
| Started slow, ended very epic. Hoping for a S4 |

| Damn, din't expect taht awesoem fusion between Atsushi and Akutagawa powers, but they were pretty strong together, and Atsushi looked really cool! Obvious Dazai would find Fyodor, while Fyodor was distracted with the hideout, Dazai decided to use Guild leader to help him find Fyodor, i love the face of Fyodor when he realized that Dazai found him, i wonder what is Fyodor's powers! Rampo telling he resolved the novel, and telling that Chuuya is still inside defeating everyone :D That end part was great, and looking forward to see Atsushi vs Akutagawa, they dont like each other, but they have an awesoem relationship, like Dazai and Chuuya! 9 out of 10 for me! |
 |
| Slightly below s2 but still good. Hopefully not another 3 years for s4 |
| This season was awesome. When I first saw BSD, I thought it was so-so. I wasn't too impressed. The second season wowed me so I rewatched the first season and appreciated it more. This season was even better than the first two. Fyodor was my favorite villain, more than Akutagawa and everyone else. I loved how Akutagawa and Atsushi combined their skills to defeat Ivan. Also, I had a strong feeling Dazai was going to be the one to catch Fyodor. Even though I was correct, I still enjoyed that scene a lot. |
| 臭い- |
| Really underwhelming season compared to the other ones. |
| 「Self Aware Cringy Weeb」 |
| First 4 episodes 10/10, 5-10 was ok and the last two was terrible. Dissapointing. |
| Ivan is pretty creepy, especially his expression. Atsushi looks great with Rashomon. His and Akutagawa's skill combination was amazing. Fyodor really is full of trick, but Dazai still managed to find him thanks to Fitzgerald's Eyes of God. Fyodor's reaction was priceless. After that we get to see his ability again, what it is is still a mystery. The anime starts with Atsushi and Dazai in sunset, and ends with it too. Pretty good season overall despite its many flaws. Definitely looking for Season 4. |
| Great finale, But can't hide the fact that this season felt very rushed! 12 episodes is too short and it gave a lot of pacing issues. |
 It’s okay to look back at the past, just don’t stare too long |
