I enjoyed season one of B: The Beginning and watched it twice. Season two is quite a disappointment because it took three years to release six mediocre episodes. Season two lacks a story, and it almost feels like Production I.G (studio) did not know what to do with the characters.

The only character that I enjoyed this season was Lily Hoshina. Keith Kazama was a joke this season. Keith Kazama Flick was not helpful such as his detective work in season one. The Royal Investigation Service (RIS) characters were not as prominent as season one. I noticed two characters who never got introduced until halfway through ...

I really do enjoy B the Beginning, the first season was actually the first anime I watched and I loved it, but I'm honestly quite disappointed.
Firstly there are only six episodes so I don't know if there will be more I think so due to the ending which I won't mention. So with little time to explain characters and story it kind a hurts the anime a lot. Season 2 breaks on some foundations set in season 1 literally bringing characters back from the dead which felt basic especially as it does go unexplained.

Some positives from season 2
Lilly is easily the best character, good personality ...

B: The Beginning Succession is an underwhelming sequel to the original show. The first season did not exactly set a high bar either, with incredibly poor pacing at the start but overall contained a decent story. Succession suffers from the opposite problem, where the pacing is good but the story itself is rather uninteresting.

I re-watched the first season just before starting the second so that I could better judge this show as a sequel.

This review will assume you have already watched B: The Beginning (the first season).

We are introduced to many new antagonists but we are never told clearly why they believe in what ...

Well that was disappointing.

As a disclaimer, this is my first review, and I've rushed it out to drop my first thoughts on S2 of B: The Beginning.

For starters, I actually really enjoyed the first season. It took itself seriously, and took a lot of risks--I enjoy shows like this that at least attempt to create an atmosphere and tone from the get-go. Season two discards all of this work made in the first season. The characters are recycled and don't develop much from where they left off in the first season, and the story deteriorates even though the first season was left in a ...

B:the beginning is an anime which I really enjoyed it was a great as mystery and anime in general for me and since I felt that the end of the previous season complete it as a story forme so I can't say I had high expectations for this season and now that I finished this season I can say that I was right.Let's start the review spoiler free.The plot of succession is the oposite of the season 1 story with this I mean that while the story of the first season was very good a bit slow start but very good this season though ...
