A downgrade from the previous seasons

Yeah, you've read it right. This is not the quintessential Daimon Michiko Season people make it, in facts most of the times this looks like a mediocre/moderately entertaining re-hash of situations already seen in the previous three seasons sans a general plotline, with an acting that at times trascends the typical Kabuki-like overacting we're already expecting from Japanese medias of all sorts and with a main protagonist that somehow is becoming able to understand something she can't understand just by watching people eating (last episode I'm looking at you). hence she de-facto becomes the sort of Mary Sue I would expect from the likes of Legend of Galactic Heroes (Yang Wenli anyone?) and it's not particularly interesting. But I guess the first (dreadful) episode already set up the expectations in that sense, so it was expected. I sincerely hope they turn around the next season...

From non-so-great to just awful

I sincerely don't understand the high scores of this season, in my opinion the absolute worst of the entire show. This season had all the potential as the very start, meaning when they introduced a female director who not only was clean, who not only took away from Hiruma all the remaning powers he had, but she also entered directly in the battle being the only one of all the directors of this show to actually perform a surgery, albeit the at this point Mary Sue Daimon Michiko still had to enter and save the day. Great stuff that promised something new...that it didn't appear because it was immediately squashed by Hiruma gaining AGAIN power and then proceding to envision an hell on earth for the Mary Sue Daimon Michiko that it didn't appear. What appeared instead? bad episode after bad episode after bad episode of Daimon Michiko being as Mary Suish as it can get, with all the opposition to her being demolished and her becoming the facto the director of the Totei university while performing completely nonsensical and silly operations, well beyond the remotely believable limit and with contrived endings with zero sense to speak of. All accompanied by tired actors giving tired performances because somebody paid them a check. I really wonder what happened to the people who made the first three seasons, hands down the peak of this entire show and the only ones I would recommend to anyone to check out.
