| Great way to start a New Season. The Episode was Nice and Refreshing as always. |
 |
| What a fantastic episode. President Aria always makes me smile. Aria always leaves me with the warmest feeling after watching. Looking forward to another great season! ^_^ |
 |
| What a cute episode Especially Akari & Ai-chan's dance, "Zunta popon de zunta popon"? xD Well not surprising I guess.. They're kinda foreshadowing it for us, the disappearance of the cats and saying they're called by Cait Sith That Cait Sith though... I thought it's not that big |
"Signature removed"   |
| I was genuinely worried there for a second when Akari and Ai were under Catanova's spell. (I can't believe this thread hasn't used that pun yet. Shame!) Seeing that cats have all sorts of supernatural powers on Aqua (time travel, supersize, heck, they can understand and sort of mimic human speech), all sorts of wild theories are forming in my head: 1) They're an advanced race which chose to look like cats, and are around as observers of humanity as it tries to break free from the bounds of its home planet (sort of like the role mice play in Hitchhiker's Guide, without being to spoiler-y) 2) Cats are somehow being influenced by some native, intelligent life form on Mars. Those Martians could be living underground, or are microscopic and can be parasitic, taking control of small mammals or insects. |
| hopefully it wont be as boring as the first season |
 |
| Casanova is a big cat. |
 |
| Holy shit, I don't know what Akira and Ai were on, but they were high as fuck xD Episode was pretty good. Cats being the minions was obvious, but I didn't expected Casanova to be a giant cat. I thought it would be somekind of pyramid of cats. |

| What a sweet start! This is already better than 98% of the first season episodes. and Just as i suspected, there's a significant improvement in the production. animation is still weak to average, but it doesn't matter at all here. the art, on the other hand, has improved. Aqua looks more beautiful than ever. |
| It's nice to be back with these silly girls. I expected Casanova and his lackeys to be an effect of magic realism but no, it's just cats. Better use of cats than the cat episode in the first series. |
| Nice start, even though I think almost every episode of the first series was better. Opening and ending are beautiful again. |

| Nice way to start the new season |
 |
| The Carnavale customs are taken directly from a Venician tradition. Makes sense... |
 |
| What a great start to the series. It's as calming and soothing as ever. Watching Aria really heals your soul... Ai-chan in her Aria Company uniform looks really cute. Looks like Aria Company already has its next apprentice! Wouldn't be surprised if she became Akari's apprentice in the future. I already guessed that Casanova and his attendants were all cats after President Aria and Hime disappeared like that. Although I was not expecting Cait Sith to be real or him to be the Casanova. It was slightly freaky to see such a big cat honestly lol Looks like we have another full season of relaxation and bliss. |
 |
| This Casanova's reveal was really magical for me. And i was touched into heart to tears like a little kid. T_T I like this anime more and more with every watched episode... |
| New season begins with a mysterious episode, I liked the carnival atmosphere |
 |
| Nice start from Aria the series. Meeting with the legendary king of Mars cat kinda feels usual for Akari, referring so much unexpected encounters in season 1. Glad for seeing this as usual relaxation mode of show for my stressed pain life. Yet, its calm and chill scenery, made me think to sleep while watching the activity of Akari and her friends, i am not boring at all. Glad to see them back in this season 2. |

| damn this show is some good shit kinda sad it only has about 27k completed members, this show is very underrated for the enjoyment I get out of it compared to a lot of other shows even shows that have a 9+ rating. |
 |
| I wanted to wait a little bit before watching Natural but I couldn't resist, I missed this show. And what a great way to get back to it ! I loved everything about this episode. If the entire season is this good then it's no wonder why it is so beloved. |
 |
| Zun-taka pon zun-taka poko-ten. |
 |
| Excellent episode. That Casanova's reveal was really amazing moment. |

| This anime is really good to get your mood better. That episode was beautiful for my eyes. |
 |
| Didnt expect the sudden turn towards the surreal. Good episode though, but that Casanova better keep his stinkin' paws off of my Akari. |
 |
| I'm back for more and here for Alicia. Well that was a trip, the cat being Casanova and being huge. Chill and pretty episode. Nice to see the girls again. |
| I knew it was the cats but thats pretty easy to tell |
| Inhales oxygen |
| Lol I feel so stupid for not realizing sooner that Casanova and his attendants were cats... It was so obvious but I was too focused on finding out what happens next. So far so good. The supernatural/surreal atmosphere really reminds me of Studio Ghibli movies and Haruki Murakami's novels. |
| The scene with Akari and Ai following the Casanova's parade was so surreal. Loved it. |
