The fights would just about be the only thing I am looking forward to in GMG arc, which won't happen for at least several episodes (possibly 5 or more).

I am also not looking forward to looking at the ST show off things, that guild (especially the GM, whose obsession with the title 'Number 1 in Fiore' over something as trivial as 'games' is only paralleled by his arrogance) really annoys me and I do not want to see it on screen. Plot armor or not.

Also, Michelle being a doll (albeit a cute one) is very much in align with what was happening in this arc. The nuns guarding the real Michelle are dolls, Lapointe was a doll, and now Imitatia too, not very surprising. Perhaps you couldn't accept it because Imitatia was an actual toy doll rather than doll in the broader sense of the word?
