Fumetsu no Anata e Season 2

After seeing enough death and tragedy, the immortal Fushi secludes himself on an island, defending himself from enemy Nokkers. However, instead of attacking Fushi in isolation, Nokkers begin targeting the settlements outside of his reach in hopes of luring him out. Soon, a group known as the Guardians—led by Hisame, the descendant of the deceased warrior Hayase—finds Fushi.

Inspired by how Fushi protected Janada Island from the Nokkers years ago, the Guardians have grown a considerable following and are recognized throughout the world. Initially reluctant, Fushi allows the Guardians to accompany him to the site of the Nokkers' recent attack. In their village, Fushi meets a few valuable allies, both new and old. But as the conflict with the Nokkers only leads to more loss, Fushi must find the inner strength to face his inevitable sorrow.

This is such an out-of-the-world, completely original storyline, that I will always remain impressed with.

The story revolves around Fushi - an immortal being, who learns and grows from experiences and relationships with others. Season 1 had me crying nearly episode, while in season 2, we see a more humanly-developed version of Fushi, who strives to make good friends.

It was heart-warming seeing the people who care about Fushi, albeit some in a near destructive way (aka Guardians), and we get a special character (Bon) who literally is the linchpin of this season. He was able to understand and communicate with Fushi like no others could, except ... Fushi's old friends in S1, and always gave him support when he needed it.

Overall, this anime is just a really really good-watch, and it won't be like any other that you know

I feel like this show has almost completely changed between the two seasons. S1 was all about an animated orb learning to transform into objects, animals and people around it and, over the course of the season, slowly building himself into something resembling a human himself. Sure, it had its pacing issues later in, and I still think it peaked in episode 1, but the journey felt rather clear: Fushi would have to learn to live his immortal life, and would have to deal with the mortality of those around him. This season felt... a little directionless for much of its run. It carried over ... the pacing issues from last season writ large, and just made the central villains the Nokkers, which is fine, but contributes to the lack of heart in this season. They're faceless enemies with a goal that receives little explanation, and while that gets built out this season, it still feels alien and hard to comprehend.

None of this is to say that this season was bad. Fushi was forced to reckon with mortality on a level he never had to before, being put in a situation where he absolutely could not protect everyone. He also had to literally grow beyond humanity, becoming more of a force in the world than just someone within it. I like the concepts of this season more than I like their execution, though. Seems like a lot of the season was build-up, and while the execution of a few major events was certainly engaging, they also felt so impersonal that it lost much of the emotional drive of the last season. I mostly like how things ended, albeit with a couple of frustrations, though given that this was a 20 episode run, the lack of engagement isn't great.

Honestly, the animation, pacing and execution is just horrible compared to the 1st season.


First off, I really hated the recaps, though the recaps were initially quite good in the first season, were written well, and made you look forward to what would happen after the intro, (though, it did get kind of repetitive after the first five episodes and gradually stopped adding as much), it eventually stopped at a certain point when it just seemed unnecessary, THIS season however, has those recaps for EVERY episode, and not only is there nothing interesting added in any of what is said during those recaps, it just gives ... a poor sum up of the previous episode in the most bland way possible.
In the first season, the recaps kinda hyped me up, but here it just felt like dead filler begging to be skipped.

The intro uses the same song as the first season, which I don't mind, I actually think it's quite fitting, but the quality and emotion put into the animation is just far worse, instead of emotional compilations of events all overlapping each other one after the other, more portions of the intro is filled with noticeably with less animated imagery of Bon/other new characters/events, but it's not nearly as beautiful as season 1's OP, its closer and closer to a slideshow, much like 80% of the animation throughout this season.


I think it's obvious there was clearly much more passion put into the first season compared to this lazy mess, if you liked this anime in the first season and are invested in it's story, I wouldn't recommend watching this, you're better off reading the manga, unless you're not the type to read manga, in which case you'll most likely end up experiencing 40% of the enjoyment this story has to offer under to poor and lazy execution.
