Druaga no Tou: The Sword of Uruk

Tower of Druaga: The Sword of Uruk is a good follow-up to the thrilling fantasy action of its predecessor set in the medieval realm that seems to be structured like an RPG game. Along with its romantic undertones, the show never forgets to remain comical. The first episode of the first season may have mislead viewers, but the new episode switches to the main narrative, which is closer in terms of time and place, although the opening sequence is still different from the main plotline.

The show kicks off at the point where the first season ended, and the sequel does a great job of catching ... up on all the storylines that were left hanging, offering a glimpse of a world that has dramatically changed over the years. Strikingly, the animation was created a year after in 2009, and it still maintains the same engaging nature as the original one. Nudity and fan service are still the part of the story but they're presented with moderation, avoiding any excessive indulgence.

The soundtrack blends beautifully into the fantasy atmosphere, combining majestic orchestral pieces with some delicate moments of silence which are carefully used for the maximum effect. The Japanese voice actors are impressive and worth mentioning.

In sum, Tower of Druaga: The Sword of Uruk is a successful sequel to the first season, which continues to appeal to the already loyal fan base. For people who are engaged in the story, this sequel is definitely something that worth your time.

The Sword Of Uruk is the second season of the Tower of Druaga anime, which continues the previous Aegis of Uruk.
Story & Characters: The story continues about half a year after the end of the first season, with everyone having gone their separate ways after Kaaya and Neeba's betrayel. Jil has become a drunk who just can't do anything, until one day the physical manifestation of the legendary priestess Ki comes and asks him to take her to the top of the now renamed "Tower of Gilgamesh" to help Neeba and Kaaya, and to save the kingdome by defeating king Gilgamesh' shadow self, which is ... taking over the kings consciousness. Jil and the others join forces again, with some troubles, and climbs the tower again, with a new ally called Henaro. The characters are mostly the same as the first season, except for a few, but are not as well done as in the first season, creating some confusion and flaws in the plot.
Art & sound: The artwork and sounds are mostly exactly like in the Aegis of Uruk.
Overall: All in all an enjoyable watch, though it's slightly worse than the previous season. It's a fair show that you can give a go if you have time.
Enjoy!

Outside of Coopa's naked foot, this was a poor season 2. They added many more characters that are really hard to care about. Memories and questions that didn't require answers were answered in full detail, while also adding more questions, particularly in regard to four characters and also in regard to the passing of time. We don't even see the inner-tower progression for half the season, and the other half is rushed to take us to the end with no regard for the setting that was supposed to be dangerous. I gave it 8 episodes until I just played it on 2x speed. This show ... will have you and your friends saying, "Didn't ask. Thanks for the chores."
