Freezing Vibration

This is one of the best animes that I have watched so far. Tho it's a supernatural action anime with strong female lead, it's also of ecchi and harem genre. Many says it's boob's show. Truthfully, I myself also couldn't handle that level of ecchi when I first watched it(as I was a newbie then). But TBH when I rewatched after 1 yr, it was completely fine and the inner meaning of the anime was awesomeeeeeeeee. "Freezing" is just like another anime where humans with supernatural powers fight against many supernatural beings. It doesn't have that deep message or sth. But when you think of ... "freezing vibration", there are so many emotions and thoughts that comes to your mind. Like sad moments, action moments, sacrifices, breakdowns, anticipations, fun...in short everything.

The things that made me love freezing vibration so much are the deep meanings of this series and obv satellizer who is such a strong and badass character. Tho satellizer is strong, she has a dark past. And when you watch the anime, it naturally comes to your mind that how can a girl with such a dark past be so strong. I don't know about others but this thought encourages me to be strong no matter what.

Then again it shows how cruel social circumstances can be. Because the series shows how just because of poverty e-pandoras risked their life.

And at last it shows us that what almighty gives us is the best things we will ever get and if people try to overturn or copy nature it will only cause disasters and havoc which we can also relate to. If we think about all those disasters that are happening today, isn't these all the revenge of nature for what we have done to it?? That's exactly when the nature that is so good for us becomes the death of us. And that's exactly what is shown in freezing vibration by Amelia.

So, how can an anime which depicts so many deep meanings be bad just bcuz it's ecchi?? Honestly, I too don't like ecchi and harem but trust me this anime is too deep to think about all those unnecessary things. And obv it's written on the genre that it's ecchi. So, a friendly reminder to all those people who can't take ecchi, please don't watch it and downrate it. IT'S NOT A CRAPPY ANIME, JUST AN UNDERRATED ONE BECAUSE OF SOME PEOPLE WHO COULDN'T UNDERSTAND THE INNER MEANING.

Vibration - a series of small, fast movements back and forth or from side to side...huh...kinda like the pacing of this season.

The difference between Freezing and Freezing Vibration is it's topic of agenda and execution of the agenda they both do.

Freezing Vibration takes off where the first season left on on but with a different plotline following Satellizer and Kazuya. So instead of the survival of humanity of Nova attacking humanity, we have a artificial vs.natural in the form of discrimination towards the newly shown plotline of E-Pandora, artificial Pandora using ordinary girls to the naturally-battle ready Pandora's. So before LA delves into this "agenda" ... that Vibration has, LA will get into the typical basics.

In terms of characters, we have a new line of characters, from the international Pandora's and their Limiters to the new cast of E-Pandora's, essentially the cast has DOUBLED but omitted some of the characters from the first season such as Ganessa. As for character focuses, we do get some insight to some of the characters that were hinted at the first season such as Chiffon and Elizabeth Mably voiced by Sayaka Ohara, as for the new cast of E-Pandora characters, well the centralized focus is on these new E-Pandora's, most notably Amelia Evans voiced by Suzuko Mimori. Oddly enough Satellizer and Kazuya doesn't get much of a focus until the halfway mark, however that is "slightly" compensated with an in-depth look at Satellizer's past which will for LA will immediately bring up Satellizer's younger step-brother Louis el Bridget, if there was a lack of execution or payoff for even looking into Satellizer's past with Louis involved, well the biggest problem with developing Satellizer's past is that Louis in reality didn't get the comeuppance he deserved to all he did to Satellizer in the past AS WELL AS during the events of Vibration, LA already loathed Louis as a character from the first season (in fact LA hated this character more than the main villain of Vibration), the payoff to this just wasn't handled properly. As much as the characters and their development are scattered and LA has overall mixed feelings to the new and old characters. If you want to know whether Satellizer is STILL LA's favourite character, she is, however as for the minor character cast, well LA's favourite minor character is STILL Chiffon, however Cathy Lockharte voiced by Rie Kugimiya can easily be LA's second favourite from the minor cast...and no it's not because of Rie Kugimiya.

In terms of animation done once again by A.C.G.T, well it's overall decent like the first season but LA felt that it kinda lacked in the battle department with some stiff and awkward battle movements here and there, still Vibration still has the same color palette it had in the first still briniging in that dark tone and mood it needs for this season.

The fanservice however takes a big dip in levels as Vibration gets serious with it's agenda and really due to this agenda, most of the fanservice and ripped clothing is hardly noticeably, let alone LA cares about it. However the biggest offender of the fanservice is the shameless fanservice girl of Elizabeth Mably essentially her walking in the nude is the highest level of fanservice Vibration ever gets.

Now onto the "difference of agenda" LA said at the beginning of this review, well Vibration overall has lowered their stakes in the plot for a more focus on artificiality vs. natural while taking on abused human experimentation for a "ambitious mad scientist human villain" -sigh- see what LA means by lowering the stakes, sure Vibration is multi-faceted with it's new agenda but ultimately towards the overall impact on this plot, it doesn't do much for LA to care about the plot when the villain is a scummy human villain instead of ohh LA doesn't know the already powerfully insane Nova's, made worse by Satellizer's failed execution of her past (though her character development along with Kazuya gets better) and made even worse is that Kazuya becomes utterly one-note as a supporting character to Satellizer. As much as LA is bashing Vibration LA will say that at the VERY least the new agenda Vibration took with it's multi-faceted messages doesn't ring hollow as it's centralized focus on this does make it engaging even if the payoff is horrible, also the new cast of characters of E-Pandora's and the international Pandoras are welcome additions to Freezing.

The ending if anything gave the focus from Satellizer to Chiffon Fairchild and to be honest it was kinda baffling where this ending led to, yes it actually lead to an actual death compensated with a few "deaths but not" by the end of it. Now LA really thought that this ending was a clusterfuck of themes and ideas put together with some plotlines that still become unexplained by the end of Vibration, however for a clusterfuck, LA didn't mind this ending, sure it has lots of loose plot threads (like the obvious, what the hell are the Nova's!?!??!?!) that "might" hint to another season but how batshit insane it went to the central focus of the Nova, LA didn't mind it as it had a similar ending to the first season.

Freezing Vibration, with it's negatives and positives, all LA can say about Vibration is that, it's not THAT bad a sequel to Freezing, however LA would say that if you want higher stakes in Freezing just stick to the first season, if you wanted a different agenda to Freezing and like the new cast of characters, then Vibration will scratch that itch, for LA however Vibration is "decent" but can't stand up to it's first season as the negatives "just" outweighed the positives for LA.

Where did they go wrong? I watched season one and I enjoyed it for what it was, an anime that was focused on boobies and it was good. This second season is so much worse and for what??? For starters, the shit with the half-brother is SO FUCKING bad and then instead of killing him, they try to redeem him??? how and why would the writers do this? Why would you make a comically evil rapist villain who has ruined his sister's life because he was such a shitty human and then boom! we are just supposed to be chill about it?? Also, they just ... forgot about the main character... and the guys in the show are fucking useless, they never use their fucking zones which makes no fucking sense... This show is bad but if you are really desperate to see some boobs and haven't already seen Highschool DxD then I guess it works.
