I'm a manga reader so I saw it coming. I wish I was an anime only; the scene would have so much more impact on me that way. It was actually painful for me to watch even though I already knew what was going to happen. :(

I enjoyed the season a lot. This arc is (like what most fans claim) the least entertaining arc in the manga, but the anime made it very entertaining to watch. The pacing is weird here and there, but I'm fine with it. The gyokko fight was way funnier in the anime, while I think the hantengu fight felt more intense in the manga.
