Bokusatsu Tenshi Dokuro-chan 2

Bokusatsu Tenshi Dokuro-chan 2 can basically be described as this: Over the top comedy and violence, complimented with pointless story and echhi-ness on the side.
It picks up where the first season left off, (well with the cast appearance anyway) and gives you even more of what the first had to offer.

Story: 4/10
Honestly if this anime series could talk, it would say: "Story? What is this story of which you speak of?" Because quite frankly there is none whatsoever, if you have ever seen season one then you may be surprised that everything the actual storyline (if you can even call it that) had built up to that point, seems to have gone right out the window. In fact it kind of confused me when I started this second season. The way the first half ended left many things up in the air, and instead of continuing it from where it left off, it simply just decided to put all characters together as one big happy family, whether or not they actually were so in the first half. Anyway, there is no plot at all to speak of, basically we see Sakura (main male lead) get into all sorts of over the top situations with Dokuro-chan and her friends. Whether it be simply taking a bath together, (in their swimsuits no less) or getting trapped inside some magical box. It does differ from one another so you don't feel you are re-watching recycled content scenes from the first part. They also boosted the over all "echhi-ness" factor and over the top "violence." So whether you either loved or hated Dokuro-chan's content before, it will mostly increase two full this time around! So if you are new to the series, just be aware that it contains more extreme themes regarding these. Oh and they also added about two new characters, nice for its 2 episode length. Though I personally would have liked for it to continue further than that. There is no character development whatsoever.......nor an actual ending to this either, as you could basically switch the first and last episodes with each other and it wouldn't make much difference. And the way they threw the story out, this series could honestly keep going on for an eternity, all the while making you laugh the entire way. Honestly I just found this title drop dead hilarious at times, as many on the comedy scenes are pretty darn clever......dirty and bloody as they may be.

Artwork: 8/10
Bright colorful, sharp and lovable, and definitely on par from what you would expect of the series. (though they seem to have given the overall characters a bit more of a mature-er look to them) The character design is not fully different from what you may be accustomed to wanting, but the design and artwork truly have a distinctiveness to them. I especially like how they cut and copy actual animal faces, (or even real life historical characters on occasion) and stuck them on selected characters; Whom of which have been cursed by Dokuro-chan herself! So yeah it varies on the artwork, most of the time you'll see the standard colorful fair, and others you'll see real life western style paintings and character art playing a role in the wackiness. Backgrounds were good and detailed for the most part, but never really come off as anything great or unique, and look pretty standard overall.

Soundtrack: 6/10
They actually re-made the opening theme from the first part, its okay and all but just isn't quite as carefree and happy as the first. The ending song was pretty beat-ish, basically it has all the characters in yukata's (summer kimonos) dancing to this happy kind of drum beat, all the while singing along, which may tempt you to sway along with it. The background music is pretty forgettable though, nothing really stands out as most are just generic sounding pop beats. I honestly didn't even notice the BG most of the time.

Characters: 7/10
Great as usual, all the characters retain their varied personalities from the first half. From Dokuro-chans innocent yet murderous intent, to Shizuki's (supporting role) tender caring attitude. Which is quite nice considering nothing in this title is taken seriously, and I am glad that the company went out and actually gave each character a good variety of persona's! Though I think most viewers out there will either love or hate a guy named Zansu, as he can be an extreme in the personality department. Not the most memorable cast out there, but great for this style of anime. Though I feel I should stress it once again, zero character development.

Bottom Line: 8/10
"Bokusatsu Tenshi Dokuro-chan 2" ups everything in content from the first season, chances are you will either love it or hate it more depending on your taste. It remains a solid watch for what it brings to the table. If you like echhi-ness complimented with over the top comical violence, then you will absolutely love this series, if not then you will loath it all the more and find it overall pointless. Good solid watch for fans and viewers who can appreciate its approach in comedy content. read more

What can I say, a bit more of same-old Dokuro chan, although the second season manages to be even less politically correct than the first one (tons and tons of ecchi) .No story to speak of, no character developpement, but if that's what you were looking for in this anime you have issues:)
Apart from that, an episode of this series never fails to deliver when you need 10 minutes of stupid/cruel/ecchi humor.Call me twisted, but I still chuckle every time Sakura kun gets clubbed to death:)
