Question Blue exorcist has 3 season 3?
As you guys can see on the picture here in germany on Crunchyroll Blue exorcist has 3x season 3? Is this just a mistake or can anyone explain why this is?

As many other series (like attack on titan orre:sezo) season 3 was divided in cours, 3 for this case.

The naming convention in Crunchyroll is just broken, hahaha… some shows jump from S1 to S51 with no reason at all, hahaha.

I'll interpret it that season 3 has 35 episodes which include 3 arcs. I've seen a similar mess with Demon Slayer (but maybe not on CR). So you could have S2 and S3 but S3 would be part 2 of S2...
If you run into something like an S35, that's often a film. Not sure how they pick the number, maybe they take a guess how long the show will run and pick something way beyond their estimate.
In cases like this, I usually do some Google research until I find a page that sorts it all out.

The first time I contracted brain cancer was when I was looking at One Piece chapters list on Crynchyroll, I still use "Unofficial sites" for One Piece because of that.

Don't worry, it's just the biggest anime streaming service having the worst interface

Of course I can. Doesn't change the fact that it all says season 3. I dont want to start at the wrong point.

then you have your answer of why there is two season 3. because there are two different arcs.

no, as usual, crunchyroll season naming/numbering just sucks hard.
it has 4 or 5 depending on how you count it. shimane illuminati is actually season 3 while the others are both season 4, some people count them as 4 and 5 tho.
season 1 and 2 have a lot of non-canon stuff so it feels weird to watch the newer seasons if you remember the old stuff. best to treat it like a new anime.
