Adapted from the ongoing light novel and manga, The Third is one of those series can immediately separate itself from the pack of Sci-Fi anime. With a balance of animation, story telling, and music, XEBEC and director Jun Kamiya created a series that was decisively enjoyable.
Though some may feel that the art and animation is a bit on the bland side, it compliments the environment well. Honoka is also slightly the stereotypical powerful main heroine (with a few weakness here and there for good measurement), but she has enough character in her that you won’t find her full of annoyance.
If you’re a sci-fi fan that enjoys a series with balance of action, comedy, and well-paced storytelling, The Third can be an enjoyable watch.
