Flames Season 3 Twitter Review

The Twitter users who watched the third season of the show had mixed reviews about it. They found the start relatable and refreshing but the end becomes emotional and depressing. The students who watched it realised that the more they related to it, the more depressing it got as it revealed the flaws of society. There was initially some glitch in episode 3 of the season and the audience was not able to access it which broke the flow. However, it was resolved later and the audience completed the series.

Great job @the_timeliners". Another one wrote, "This series show an unexplored path of relation among a father and their children, among the friends and the pure music just takes it to next level. The story starts loosing grip in from 3rd episode but on the brighter side it recovers early. #flamesseason3 ".

A special shoutout went to some endearing characters, one of which was Ishita's father as a Twitter user wrote, "#flamesseason3 I am not comparing or anything but Ishita's father is the demand for New generation, the way he supports and understands her is way too amazing".
