This is just a light-hearted series about love. The three main couples are each very different but all enjoyable.
Junjuo Romantica is the most outrageous and extremely comical, but there are serious moments where you are just on the edge of your seat, waiting for a resolution. Their story is just adorable.
Junjou Egoist is by far the most realistic to me. This couple faces real challenges and i think that their story is believable. Their intereaction with eachother is just to die for, it's just so sweet! This is my favorite couple btw :3
Lastly Junjou Terrorist is just funny as hell! I haven't seen many episodes with this couple, but just cuase they aren't seen as much, doesn't mean that they aren't just as awesome
Sound was nice, it set the mood but didn't really stand out.The opening and ending themes weren't as good as the first season, but they are still good.
Art in this anime ranges from little chibi cartoons to big round sparly eyed faces. Each character has different eyes that are very expressive and they way they look is just...drool-worthy. lol. The backgrounds are nice to look at, but nothing really amazing.
Characters and their interations are definetley the selling point for this anime. Each character is just fun to learn about, and as you hear their inner monologues, you get to understand them so well. They are like my second family now xD.
Over-all, this anime is just so much fun to watch, and i recommend it to all that are willing to give yaoi a shot! You wont' regret it! read more

After a rather good first season which made me think yaoi is not disgusting or weird, but it's just a view on another type of attractiveness, I felt encouraged to watch the second season as well. It was pretty much the same, yet disappointing when compared to my expectations and the first season.
~Story~ (7)
The second season finally discovers some more of the past of Usami family, as well as even introduces us with Usagi-san's father and brother, who seem to enjoy making their lives complicated. Or at least that's what they've been made for.
More complicated situations, confrontations, confessions and even more of our all favorite love scenes are included in this season, which make the grade jump up. It's more tense, and more interesting, including other pairings. Unfortunately, the ending wasn't exactly my cup of tea. Hence the grade going down on the same level as season one.
~Art~ (6)
Nothing new to say, honestly. The only improve I've noticed is there are more different scenes other than their flat and campus. And those scenes were made nicely, they did a rather nice job on backgrounds and scenery, I must admit, but nothing changed much, honestly.
~Sound~ (9)
The opening was finally good enough for me not to laugh at it. It was a normal, and pretty nice love song, by a rather good artist if I may notice - the same one as in first season. Although, the 1st OP sounded gay, as I already mentioned, and this one, on the other hand, didn't sound good enough.
The ending was not memorable. Somehow they always succeed in OP and fail in ED songs. The BG music remained as beautiful as ever, fortunately.
I noticed I haven't mentioned voice actors before. Why, oh WHY didn't I? Isn't it funny that a female gave voice to Usagi? Although 2 people gave it actually a man and a woman. I still wonder what's with 2 voices, and my only guess so far is that it's a mistake. But whatever the case is, the voice is HOT. I must admit that. Without THAT voice, Usagi wouldn't be what he is now.
~Character~ (8)
The second season blesses us with - guess what? PERSONALITIES! With pasts! It's a deluxe package! Characters get more realistic, just a bit, but they get even more anime-ish, though. We also have characters that actually used to have life before the time anime started in. Isn't that a nice progress?
Now seriously, we find out more about Usagi, though not really anything concrete (again) and we get too meet characters that actually make his past, including other pairings, who actually became more interesting due to their rare chance to have an episode for themselves. The characters with the best description and personality were definitely Nowaki and Hiroki. Their love is almost as confusing and pretty as the one in real life.
~Enjoyment~ (7)
The music always caught my attention, the characters kept me interested, and the story had a progress. Finally. But the bloody ending had to ruin everything. Well, it was fine, but, heck, it made me feel as if I wasted my time expecting something amazing.
The overall grade may not be very good. Actually I obviously liked the first season more, but, again, all because of the way it ends. Actually, the whole last episode was a failure. It didn't even look OR sound like a last episode!
Hence the low rating. However, if you watched first season, and liked it, care to watch the second one as well, because if you aren't as critic as I am, you'll love it. There may be a third! :) read more
