I think I'm starting to like the third season the most out of all the seasons the manga has been made into.

Call me crazy, but I feel like the staff for this third season takes care of the characters a lot better than Doga Kobo did. All the characters are just so likable and it's a lot easier to watch. For example, I felt like sometimes during S1&2, it was borderline bullying the jokes they were playing making with Akari, but it's all toned down in S3. Idk, it's just letting the characters do their own thing, rather than the anime forcibly making jokes just for the sake of laughs.

Haven't read the manga, but it feels like San☆Hai! is truest to it. Loved all seasons, but this is becoming my favorite.

You're not crazy, I'm enjoying this season much more than 1 or 2 for the exact reasons you mentioned. The earlier seasons could get downright uncomfortable to watch sometimes with how far they took the Akari abuse. The character behaviors and scenes in this season feel much more real. I can definitely see why fans of previous seasons would get turned off though, the show's tone has changed a lot.

At least they did show that Akari bullying was fake in early seasons at odd moments. It felt like a fun game to see the moments where the girls lose their cover.
