At this point beside 2 volumes ( both are Slice of Life ) we can expect a complete adaptation, considering the overall pace, DAL should end after S5 with a potential S6 or film, .

I'm so glad S4 didn't have S3 poor quality of animation, let's continue on a good track.

What a perfect way to end a great season with that cliffhanger a promise of season 5! I can't wait!

Now, I wonder what studio is going to do season 5, assuming that the pattern of a different studio doing each season continues.

I'm guessing Geek Toys will continue animating it if they don't wait for too long.

Let's go! We're going to the finish line. My Little Shido deserves this. Now sweet ARMS need to go back to performing the OP song.

I expected Geek Toys would fully adapt the remaining volumes with a couple more seasons.

We're in the endgame now. There is 6 vols worth of content remaining so unless they make season 5 a split cour then we're getting season 6 too. The last thing I wanna see is the Mio saga getting butchered to hell.

When the anime's poster for S4 revealed the key visual, I was honestly worried as the characters didn't look like the OG and were hard to tell who they were. On top of that the art looked bad. HOWEVER! When seeing the new art style in motion it looks MUCH better and that key visual they improved on so they made the characters (Tohka and Shido) look much close to the OG. (And I assume others too) and so, I cannot believe am saying tis becus I LOVE the OG art style but, I also love this art style too and wouldn't mind seeing it return long as the same ones who worked on S4 work on S5 and the rest if we get anything more after S5 and during S5.

S4 was great, did not see that twist coming. I haven't read the manga/LN and don't plan too so looking forward to S5 and hopefully the rest of the source material. That said, I will air my sole gripe about S4, as great as it was, it needed 24 eps (or however many S5 will ahve) as it ends on a cliff hanger which makes rating the season unsatisfactory as we don't even get to conclude the Kurumi arc we're on, it gets interrupted due to S4 being the usual 1 cour instead of 2. And that sucks for me, as a BIG Kurumi fan. So yeah, it affected my rating of S4, sadly. S3 I rated a 8.5/10.0 but looking back at S4 its only an 8.0/10.0 and I blame that interruption we got for this lower rating for S4, which fyi, we'd never had this happen b4...

It'd be funny if the series changed studios once again, but it's better for production if it stays the same since S5 will probably not be that far off

It's great that it looks like so much, if not all of the series will be adapted. Though having said that, I haven't found the 4th season to be much of a draw to watch each week (I'm a few episodes behind), so hopefully binging this last Kurumi arc will pick things up for me.
Still, great to see more regardless =)

If you're behind, then stick with it. The Kurumi arc is easily the high point of the season, and I'd even argue that it's some of the best animated content to date for the franchise. Episode 12 is also one of the franchise's best-looking episodes, and yeah, those are a couple of nasty twists near the end. This may be the first time that I'm actually looking forward to the next season.
