So you start watching the second season and everyone is mysteriously ignoring the last bit of season one, which is a jarring disconnect.

As for the third season, the anime did start by skipping Chapters 35 through 37. it would later skip Chapter 40 and Chapter 42. You may wish to go back and read them.
