Tenjiku Arc Season 3

Memore said:
Who read the manga what are your predictions of how many episodes will it have? I hope not 13 as I read on wiki that is has 66 chapters, so following how they adapt the manga chapters 3 chapters per one episode it should have 24 episodes as the first season.

What do you think?

Anything less than 24 episodes is a crime. The Tenjiku arc is the longest and arguably the best arc, there's too much to cover to fit in 13 episodes.

I feel the only way for them to adapt the series (assuming they want to go endgame, which it seems they might if they're adapting this far) is 2 more ~24 episode seasons
Tenjiku and Bonten arc would be in one season, and the Three Deities and Kanto Manji arcs would be in the other
along with that being the only way they'd be able to do it due to the length of the arcs, there's a major shift between the Bonten and Three Deities arcs, as that's when the story enters its "Final Act" as well as shifting focus on a certain other character (won't say for spoiler reasons ofc)
Tenjiku is simultaneously too long for a 1-cour season and too short for a 2-cour season, so throwing the only 20-chapter long Bonten arc in with it to balance out a 2-cour season would make sense, as Bonten is way too short for its own season
Following that, the Three Deities arc is too short for its own season as well, so putting Kanto Manji there would both put the Final Act into 1 complete season and balance the season out to be paced well into another 2-cour season
I hope this made sense to you or anyone else interested in it who bothered to read all this
