Conclusion
I guess this is good news for the fans of the series because fewer episodes mean the quality of animation is going to be top-notch.
We should never forget what happened with season 2, fans thrashed the makers for bad animation quality whereas they forget that the number of episodes was more.
So, let’s support the series whatever the situations are.
