"Teasing Master Takagi-san" is about two middle schoolers named Takagi & Nishikatha (there's more but we'll get to that later). It contains of small stories of Nishikatha trying to win over Takagi with his small challenges & games but ends up getting the one teased by her.
If there's one thing the show does unlike many other Anime ever did, is keeping it pure & innocent. You can easily tell that if you've watched upto this season, but each season is well rounded & varied in it's focus. Season 1 is more of a setup, Season 2 is more about the characters while Season 3 is more about the relationships. In this season, we not only got to see the main leads but also some side characters making some progress like, Hojo & Hamaguchi who are what Nishikatha & Takagi in previous season while Mano & Nakai are still at the top of the billboard in the game.
The biggest strength this Anime has is definitely, the voice acting. All seiyuus did an excellent job in bringing this childish story to life but I particularly like two VAs in this show. Yuuki Kaji as "Nishikatha" and Konomi Kohara as "Mina". Yuuki Kaji did Nishikatha's overly confident & dumb expressions so well, that I almost forgot that he's about to commit a genocide in an another world. His high pitched over exaggerations when his overconfidence brings him failure, to his low pitched soft monologues in his awkward & confused moments is a big charm and driving force to this show. This might be an unpopular opinion but I really like Mina in this show. She's optimistic and very lively but very absent-minded & sometimes even dumb, but that's her charm. Due to her low screentime (& not being the main focus of the show), she mostly doesn't get much spotlight to shine.
I really wouldn't mind giving this an 8/10 or even a 9/10 score, after seeing how much it improved but the only thing that's stopping me from doing so is... "Takagi". Now this isn't meant to say I don't like her or anything. It's just that...she predicts everything a little too perfectly. I'm not saying she's destroys the fun either, it's the total opposite. It's just that when she predicts Nishikatha's thoughts, she predicts it so perfectly that she doesn't even spell a single word wrong or out of the place and I find it a little.....unreal. This is actually how her character is for the entire story. This isn't meant to demerit this show, it has the all the right to be praised, I just thought it can be done better than that, but it didn't bothered too much because of Rie Takahashi's lovely voice acting.
