86 Part 2 Recaps

I would greatly suggest you watch this instead of episodes 1-10 of the second season. Episodes 1-10 are extremely slow and boring and pretty much nothing happens. If I had known about this and had foresight as to how absurdly boring episodes 1-10 would be, I wouldve watched this instead and had a much better experience of 86. If you are invested in the lena/shin storyline , just watch this to save time and finish with the last 2 episodes in the original TV 12 eps. The last 2 episodes in the normal 12 eps are truly a work of art, especially That one scene. ... You'll know.

as recap episodes to season 2 they are ok. if you personally don't have that much interest in the season, you can watch those instead, but for a generally better experience, I would prefer the actual season. Especially an anime like 86, where the quieter and more atmospheric moments allow the story to unfold, will not be fully utilised by a recap that will only contain action and essentials. Those who may have paused the anime for a long time could watch it to get a quick overview. However, 86 is so short that I doubt you would even pause the anime for a longer ... period of time.
