Oh & Space Brothers is still the best anime ever,in my opinion.Even when competing with Attack on Titan.

Awsome, already started with some fights. Hopefully this season will be even better than s1.

Dat OP. They should've just put Iihiko in there because it seems like they just wanna show off the strong characters.

Im still disappointed at Gainax. Sigh, I thought s2 would be better in terms of production..

That was awesome, and at the same time holy shit dat was alot of numbers talk about tounge twisters, what a strange way to talk, the character this season look crazy as hell, so im happy this got a 2nd season.

why didnt the principal say anything about someone try to kill some else five time(like it normal) that hell and those code name Best Pain, (dude with a knife in his face) Black white, these code name made me laugh

Miss Judo Ftw hope to see more of her, also from the looks of the OP alot of crazy stuff is gonna happen this season.

Unzen was just chillen with out a care in the world........ Lucky SOB

I don't read the manga and I happened upon the first season by fluke but god am I GLAD!! Holy fuck LOVED IT!! Another one of my obsessions, I am sooo glad nothing went wrong and a second season is actually here now!!

I can't wait i'll have to though because I hate waiting for one episode a week, but so far LOTS of action, maybe some romance this time around and some sexy new characters <33 I am IN!! Plus fan service ^_^ hehehe

Overall 10/10

Wanna talk more message me ^_^

This season started off really well. Cool action and awesome comeback of Nekomi (when we got over "her" arc, there was a serious lack of her screentime). I really liked Myouga Unzen and her "number talking" I really want to know how she coded it. This better keep at least this quality or I'm putting the series on hold (too many good looking shows this season + I'm reading the manga so I'm not losing on the story). But so far so good.

way better than the first season. I guess Medaka Box became rather interesting since this "Abnormal series". Great animation, and Intense battle.

And, the attempt of side sound to speak both Japanese and the number language was also interesting.

First season suffered from being the animated version of the manga's beginning. Which was not really interesting. True Medaka Box begins right now, with all the shounenness and absurdity.

I couldn't help but grin throughout the entire episode. They show a lot of foreshadowing, some of which might be pretty spoily, but for the manga readers like me, it just adds to the awesome.

And why are you people wondering why they showed Anshin'nin in the opening?!

Although, yeah, no idea why they showed Hanten. I guess he just has to be there with her, which is pretty much true.

Also, I'd say again about how overrated Kumagawa is... but he truly is totally awesome in the Minus arc, he gets boring after that, so I'll let it slide for now.

Bravo for Unzen's sister's voice actress. Also NAH-ZEH!!!

Kumagawa & Anshin'nin seem like characters straight out of Isin Nisio's other series, Bakemonogatari.

Their quirky dialogue & all around weirdness make up most of Medaka Box for me.

I personally think Mamoru Miyano would be a better fit for Kumagawa, he's got that douchebag quality in his voice that's totally needed to bring someone like Kumagawa to life.

Honestly, Kumagawa has some amazingly badass moments outside of the Minus Arc like when he goes up against Medaka's Successors or the fight against Kugurugi, but maybe that's just me.

It was probably already planned that they would animate more than one series to begin with, the actual sales of the first series weren't so good so it's unlikely that they made the second one based on those.

Miyano's voices are usually a bit deeper than I've always imagined Kumagawa's to be, though I do agree that he would be able to get across Kumagawa's personality well.

As much as I like Medaka, I keep wanting there to be someone who can beat her. As powerful as she is, there has to be someone as strong or stronger than her. Its just something that keeps running through my head.

Good first episode.
I am a sucker for romance!!!!

Different strokes for different folks and all, but I really don't see the appeal here, or how nobody has criticized this ep yet.

It was far too ridiculous for me. Maybe if it didn't take itself so seriously and made fun of itself like Needless I could have enjoyed it.
The whole talking with numbers and Medaka understanding it was just silly and not in a good way.


No intention of starting a fire here, just wanted to leave my own thoughts on it.

well its meant to be ridiculous; her talking in a number code language, and medaka being able to decipher it and use it within a few seconds of hearing it. that's just to add to the whole abnormal cast of characters and medaka herself.

as for oudo's voice i didn't like it at first but the more i look at oudo its sorta fitting. i'll keep my judgement for after some more dialogue though.

Already picking up the pace meaning it's already a lot better than season 1.
Season 1 was stalling for quite a while before it got to the main point.
They didn't waste any time at all with this first episode and I hope they keep up with the pace.
Really looking forward to this series.

That's more like it. Loved the first ep this time. It's bigger in scope and more badass. Love the wild designs of the Abnormals. A dashing(!!) first ep, it's great to be back.

IDK who else was expecting Gilgamesh's voice when that guy showed up?

I was expecting something similar to that.


I was thinking the same. That guy is so Gilgamesh in style and attitude.

So this show has now turned completely being about freak humans(if they can be called human at all)?
And what was it with those guys in that room. They can go invincible?

Nice catchup from the last season, she's back from the hospital and directly having some more problems! The concept of this second season with the Flash Plan does seem quite interesting! I'm sure there will be great action in this season! So lets see what it has to offer!
