I think it's too early to make a judgement on the season yet. If I had to rate now it's like 3.5/5. 4/5 or higher if they can keep up the momentum to Canto 9 and not sputter out in the second half like they did last season.
The Canto itself was great but the wait between Part 3 <-> Walpurgisnight was miserable. Thumbsault was the only great thing to come out that month.
Knight of Despair Rodion coming out of nowhere and stealing the show was very funny. Queen of Hatred Don isn't a bad ID but definitely underwhelming for how highly anticipated of an ID she was. It's like they designed her kit first and then wrote up Rodion's kit knowing she would do the positive and negative coin gimmick better.
TKT Bokgak is pretty average for a rerun. The announcers are good and Meursault finally has a good WAW with Crushbound Past. T Corp Outis is great for the Time Moratorium gimmick. The biggest problem with Tremor right now is that it's too dependent on E.G.O and speed rolls to do what every other status can do normally, but I don't expect that to be fixed until Meursault's canto.
I'm interested in how they'll handle the Xichun intervallo because the biggest problem with the gameplay currently is that everything dies too fast before new IDs can reach maximum potential. They've clearly wanted to make more Ruina-length fights since Murder on the Warp Express but there's still too few of them.
