Luo Xiao Hei Zhan Ji: Zhongsheng Zhi Men

This season had many changes that differ from season 1, but are still so similar in all the right ways. If you love games, especially MMO and or RPG types of games, you will love this. You can really tell that the writers and staff loves video games and that really shows. The world also has such a grounded vibe because the world and people they've built these characters are exactly what would happen if this was reality.

The story while alittle simple is very enjoyable and surprised me, the art style is super clean that allows for very fluid and crisp animation. I do have ... a bit of a problem with some characters being a bit static but the characters that do change and show a lot of emotion more than makes up for it.

Very good watch, love the hype and rushing feeling I get when I watch it.

I'll say it off the bat, I am pretty biased because I loved Season 1 and the movie and the comics. I didn't really know what to expect after the Season 1 finale, but I feel like Season 2 did a good job following up. Art, sound, animation are all consistent, and the fight scenes are still super fluid. Season 1 was more "iyashikei"/slice of life because it focused on introducing characters and worldbuilding, while Season 2 is more action. There is still plot and worldbuilding of course, but there are more fights due to Xiaohei's mission.
Basically, if you liked Season 1 you will like ... Season 2.

First off let me say that I enjoyed the first season and the movie quite a bit. To me though this second season was a complete let down.
The first season was filled with beautiful art, a sense of mystery and exploration, and a whole lot of charm. This season that is all replaced by episode after episode of nothing but explanations of game mechanics that make no sense, clumsy action scenes which consists mostly of the show's protagonists running away from ever single fight, and samey looking backgrounds. There is no sense of actual progression, no sense that any of the things that are happening ... in the game world mean anything. I've seen a lot of people gush about how the animation is better than the first season, that may be the case but that doesn't mean anything if the content isn't good. I don't know why people rate this season so highly, but I do know that I didn't enjoy this and felt that it lost everything the first season had going for it.
