After the whole Ryunka incident that kill half of Tokyo and turn it into a pile of rubble in first season the story continue............
If you already seen the first season you'll be surprise how good this s2 will turn out, it even make S1 looking seriously mediocre in comparison. Everything just being done better this time.
This time the new antagonist and the culprit behind the incident is introduce.
Prior to save the world plot in S1, S2 is consider more down to earth and focus toward aftereffect of the incident, How did it effect the people who were involve in it.
...
The main protagonist Tsutomu Senkawa a take a back sit in this whole story. It pretty well thought out I would say, instead being man-up just to fit in, he just being himself. Definitely a plus for me since it do not fall toward generic power up shounen. Birdy on the other hand take on the spotlight, and we get to know her hidden past.
The story is extensively center toward the antagonist and birdy, their past and relation. Without giving anything away, I would say it was relatively touching story and it doesn't force the viewer to like it or GTFO. you basically could like it even though if you doesn't really find it was touching.
The execution/directing in this season is one of it main factor why it good. The pacing was great throughout the whole 12 episode. Furthermore it don't take no for an answer, every death being done in rather brutal way. It maybe a bit shocking for some, but it definitely make the stake seem much higher this time around.
The animation was great probably one of the best if not the best for tv anime, the most notable episode is 7 and 12. If you ever watch Kemonozume or mind game will notice the similarity in style. instead being use for the whole show like kemonozume, TBD02 use those style just for a few action sequence, with an amazing end result.
the music was good, and the sound effect is good as well. As expeted by A-1 Pictures "a subsidiary of Sony's anime production firm Aniplex".
Overall I would give this anime a fairly well deserve perfect 10, you couldn't find any anime out there that use a perfect balance in its strength. You could hate all the character and yet it still good, you also could hate the story and yet it still good, you could hate the animation and yet it still good, and none could not hate all three unless you're an contemptible person.
No matter what kind of an expectation you have in this, it save to say it will definitely deliver and "Shipping" expectation don't count.
