...this....this gets a S2? Sometimes I don't understand the market.


This was a 26 episodes serie to begin with. It was announced as such before the first season even aired.
I don't remember the reason it was cut into two but that's not a "second season" it's more of a "second part of the first season".

Hey, I totally forgot that.
Well, the episodes do seem to last eternally to me, every time. No wonder I thought there were 26 already.

i LOVE the new OP sequence, has Tamaki x Takuma all over it!!! :)

and starting off slow with mostly recap, but started picking up towards the end heading into the story.
recap's ok though because it gives a good refresh on the events of the first season.
"spiriting away" and the onikirimaru running rampant, can't wait to see where this is headed

also, YESSSSSSS!!!!!!
I'm a guy, but Takuma's ending sequence was AWESOME!!!

I don't like either of the pieces of music for this new season. I had hoped they would keep the first opening theme song and just change the pictures.

Anyways as far as the episode went it was eh to me. Could have been better but it was a recap episode. I am hoping for something better in the next.

whee, recap episode. -_- and in the new OP, TamakiXTakuma all over it. Way to stamp your foot on the fans of the other pairings. -_-

Well it was pretty obvious that everything wasn't resolved, otherwise why would we need a second cour. It was primarily a recap so pretty meh, but it looks like the plot is about to kick into high gear. It also looks like they picked one route (TamakiXTakamu) and are going to follow it to the conclusion. Since I haven't played the game (not in the demographic for it), I have no dog in this hunt, but it seems a pretty reasonable way to approach it. If they explored all the routes and then suddenly made an arbitrary choice the final one or two episodes everyone would complain just as much. If they did it like Amagami SS, it would probably be too long. It is what it is, and if you don't like it there are several other shoujo series this season.
Please don't feed the trolls!

Recap, hm? I'm not expecting too much from this sequel, since the previous season was, well, shit. But I like OP and ED.

Possibly, but Ryou Kutani hasn't really gotten involved yet - I'm thinking he'll muddy the waters a bit before this is all over.

~90% recap.


yeah pretty much. they could of made a pre episode like episode 0 for that, honestly.

And well the seal wasn't complete. and something about spiriting away.
And baba is going to do another ceremonial offering. I wonder what that's about.

And is there a point to the last scene, where one of the male characters talks to the screen?
it's kind of lame. :/ :/

Well waiting for next ep, hopefully it'll make up for it's lack of entertainment in this one. :/

just a summary?
the only new thing is that there is going to be an offer
They aren't gonna offer Takuma, are they?
who is grabbing your heart anyway when your stomach hurts O.o
TakumaxTamaki is the only option to me in this anime
so Takuma don't get hurt too much plzz

I, on the other hand, enjoyed the episode. Some of the stuff I have forgotten from the first season so this recap is a refresher for me.


I agree. Yeah it was a lot of the episode, but I didn't mind. Got me caught up on what I had forgot.

I know some people enjoy recaps but it's not my cup of cake. Recaps may be useful when you start watching after a year or so gap, but here, it was just meningless.
*tired of fast forwarding to get to new stuff*
But the last 5-6 minutes where niiiiiice. I just hope this "season" will be a bit more fast-paced than the previous one.

I like this OP about the same as the previous one, maybe a little less when it comes to visual aspects but well... as for the ED I prefer the previous one.

Gotta say, this episode, being a recap, didn't start the season off so strong. Plus I like season 1's OP better than this season's OP. However that is not to say that this season' OP is bad. Well, hopefully this season gets better^^

Not this shit again. One episode in and I already want to kill half of the characters!

On the bright side, great OP/ED as usual. Never disappoint.
