Quick Final Thoughts – Lostorage conflated WIXOSS

Better than incited by a country mile.

I really can’t overstate that while the previous season of this show wasn’t necessarily bad, the pacing was truly glacial and the deuteragonist was making idiotic decisions for the sake of the plot.

conflated tosses almost all the issues out the window and brings back the original generation characters to team up with the newer cast and give us what seems to be a proper franchise finale, in a tightly-plotted 12 episodes that present a believable story and wrap up nearly every loose end, and a lot of the ridiculous edge of the prior seasons is sanded down into something way more palatable.

While there are still problems – the rules of the game are still totally unclear and it makes for a lot of Yu-Gi-Oh-esque deus ex machina moments, and some major characters are heavily underutilized (Chinatsu and Iona get the worst of it), series staples like great music are still here, and Kiyoi works excellently as the protagonist. As a culmination of three prior seasons and a movie, conflated is the best WIXOSS has to offer, and I have no problem giving it a 9/10.
