Is this the so-called Japanese work ethic? Man, suddenly I feel so so sad for the two boys.

Lol at the start, its a 2nd season but no distinction between the opening of 1st ep and last ep of the last season. More insight into the industry, all the authors are weird as well.

That was a good start.

I agree so much with Hiramaru. Lol "Why do we have to work”, “I just want to eat and sleep”, “I should have born as a panda” Hahaha. I’m excited to see more of him, I have a feeling he’s gonna be my fave. And I’m slowly liking Eiji more and more with his antics.

Really good episode for the start of season 2, especially the whole party thing was cool along with Miura, Ashirogi Muto's new editor after Hattori was forced to step down to take over One Piece's editor role as well as being busy with other serializations, explaining the contract in detail with payment details and hiring assistants too to help them out, as it shows a glimpse of how much these two have grown compared to the start when they had the ability but no skill whatsoever to create a proper manga. But hey, they've progressed nicely and have earned this shot for how dedicated they've been to the craft and developed over a couple years.

New OP and ED songs were really great. Dream of Life and Monochrome Rainbow respectively for the opening and ending all sound really catchy and the kind of songs I'd love to listen to beyond just this anime and the visuals for the opening in particular were good.

It was ok but it didn't really get me that excited or anything. We'll see how this new editor works out.

On to the next.

I think that girl assistant assigned to Ashiro Muto will interfere with one of the ship

Well I've heard that being a Mangaka is hard and all but the hospitality they received and that party is quite a luxury isn't it ?

finally, season 2, start!
my favourite season, and episode 1 showed well why, the story much more smooth and not dragged, the pace is great and the OST had huge upgraded.

the animation too feels better, though the overall design didn't changed much.

never liked miura so much, he speak like he knows but his personality effects himself too much.

hiramaru is masterpiece character, truly bring more unexcepted direction to the story.

and eiji is just eiji.

It kind of sucks we're losing Hattori as the point of contact. I'm sure he'll still be around here and there, but he was such a strong part of season one. I feel like we're going to missing out.

Their assistants seem cool. It's a bit premature, but things are looking pretty good with them. I might already like them more than Fukuda and Nakai. I'm definitely excited to start seeing their input once we start working on Detective TRAP.

Otherwise, this was a pretty good opening episode for season two. It feels like a faithful continuation. So far nothing has deviated and the story still feels exciting. There's a lot to look forward to.

On a final note: Miho sitting alone in the first shot of the ending isn't promising foreshadowing for MoritakaixMiho.
