Season 1 had a tried and true underdog cast that had to work hard and struggle and get by on luck, the scenes were packed with action, tension, and high stakes. Then, he had several chances to prove himself and grow stronger. After season one, it just became a sort of shallow political drama with tens of characters being given screentime to do nothing but talk, and a bunch of foreshadowing that the supposed underdog is some kind of demigod or something. Basically devolved into an excuse to draw far too young-looking girls in the lewdest situations allowed in the show’s rating category.

I didn’t watch 3 or 4 and I don’t intend to. I’d rate the show overall as a 0/10.

The first season of DanMachi was so good, reminded me of the Sword and Aegis of Uruk, but it went downhill so fast.
