No matter how good Rakudai Kishi is, it still suffers from the same problem that a lot of Light Novel adaptations have, which is pacing. Having so much content to cover but with so little time, it is inevitable that some things will be left out and some anticipated matches won’t receive all the focus it deserves. But even then, the show continues to be really good with its characters and their dynamics, even when introducing more students for our cast to interact with.
