I went "wtf?" for the first few mins, but I was glad when I saw the old SZS back. The OP and ED seems like worse than the first season's, but we'll see...

Made me laugh a lot, which is a good thing.

I feel like I'm gonna enjoy the second season as much as the first. :)

Fake opening was great. I personally think ZokuSZS is one of the work that SHAFT showed all they have; their uniqueness in story telling and art style.

"I'm in despair! Being given a meaningless nickname has left me in despair!" just made me lol for some reason...

(Chie talking about Nozomu's suicide attempts): "It happens all the time. Don't worry about it." (:P)

Chiri: "Besides, if you're a truant, why are you here? That would mean you're not a truant! Either stop calling yourself a truant or stop coming to school! Make up your mind properly!"

I loved how the little "opposites sequence" when Kiri and Hitou meet is like when Nozomu and Fuura meet for the first time.

The ED was pretty great too.

My only (minor) complaint is that I would have liked to hear/see some reference to the accident from SZS--I mean, I'd even be happy with a quick, brush-off comment about it or something...

Lol, I love how the first episode of the second season has nothing to do with the plot at all. First we have a fake opening, and then a flashback introduction to a character that was there the whole time but was too normal for us to notice? Grr, I just want to know what happened after the accident in episode 12! I think shaft is toying with me :(

It was quite silly that I forgot who's the new girl then I thought she's so normal that I
didn't give attention to her. LOL

It started off nicely with some crazy stuff again :p
I do wonder why they took up a whole different path in the beginning from where it ended last season but well that sure was hilarious xD

The rest of the episode was some weird random stuff again with a little introduction of every character that we know from the last season!

The op Theme Song is weird and funny at the same time xD

Lets see what this season has to offer us!

This episode was all kinds of perfect. The crazy prologue, but also how it's the same antics as the first season, but they removed the flaws: they didn't dwell on the jokes and the visuals looked less hacked, which allowed for more impact. Hope the show will keep this up.

I think the first 8 min. are filler because it doesn't feel like the usual SZS.

The new OP song is kind of interesting song but I like the previous one :p

2nd half was all about Nami who doesn't have the story of her yet was introduced this episode. Nami and Komori interaction was great and Komori was awesome XD The introduction of all girls is well summarized. It's a great episode 5/5.

I watched SZS long ago and now I finally got the chance to start watching the second season. This show is one of the best parodies I've ever watched. It mocks real life events along with anime stereotypes and it never gets boring! I'm glad that the second season seems to be as good as the first season!

Loved the opening 8 minutes! It made a great start for a hopefully strong season and right after that we get back to receiving a reminder of who the cast are but in a well thought manner. I look forward to watching the other episodes.

Lol at the Genshiken 2 reference. I love Genshiken :). This episode was hilarious especially with the babys hanging from the ceiling and then she freaked out. I was kind of hoping they went with the whole pyramid scheme the entire episode though. That would have been a hilarious thing to show Zetsubou Sensei going into despair over after losing everything to it and getting his class involved in the scheme.

Ohmygod. I missed this show soooooo much. The random scenes, the random humors, the random characters, and of course Kamiyan's screams. Hehehe.

"Next season confirmed if DVD sales pass 30k" Pfffffft. What the hell. I guess it sold more than 30k since we received 2 more seasons. Hahaha.

Sumimasen, but Itoshiki-sensei looked handsomer when he's wearing a suit. Holy crap.

OKAAAAASAAAAAN!

I don't know if it is just me but this show's a lot more bizarre than I remembered. It's not necessarily a bad thing though. I didn't like the Hamasho segment much but Normal Girl trying to get attention only to have everyone else steal her spotlight was amusing. Kafuka singing creepy made-up lyrics was both unsettling and funny for me.

The ED's artstyle reminds me a lot of Nana~

OKAA-SAN!!!

I'm surprised there are people complaining about continuity despite this show being a surreal comedy that barely pays attention to such things, even in the first season.
Anyways, great episode. If you ignore the re-introduction of the characters, it doesn't feel like the start of a second season at all (in a good way).
