Was the story unique? If it was predictable, did you enjoy it anyway?
The story wasn’t exactly groundbreaking, but it was delivered in a fun and engaging way. There was real potential to continue the masterpiece that the first season set up, but it feels like the writer decided to sabotage the story. After that character was introduced, the plot became forced and the developments started feeling unnatural, like the show was creating drama just for the sake of it.
Is the art style fitting for the story?
Visually, the anime is still strong. The art and animation continue to be a highlight, effectively conveying the intensity of fights and emotions. Even when the story started slipping, the visuals held things together.
Were the characters well-rounded? Did they have flaws and strengths?
In the first season, the characters were written with care. Each had clear motivations and human flaws that made them relatable. But the second season completely dropped the ball on this, especially with the new character. That character - at least for me, they were downright unpleasant. Their behavior, mindset, and motivations felt off-putting, and I couldn’t sympathize with them at all. Their presence broke the balance between characters and made interactions feel shallow and forced, like they were from an entirely different show.
Did the characters react to situations in a realistic way?
At first, yes. But as the plot escalated with this new direction, the reactions started to lose their grounding. Characters began acting in ways that felt inconsistent with how they were established — more like they were serving the plot than being true to themselves.
Do you think others might enjoy or dislike this series, even if you didn’t?
Some people might still enjoy the heightened drama and over-the-top action, especially if that’s their thing. But for fans of the first season who appreciated the grounded, character-driven story, this season will likely feel disappointing.
