I think this season is really good, it's starting to show Yuuji's powers are coming out and they are starting to show more of their relationships. It feels as if there hasn't been a gap between the first season..........and the soundtrack is still awesome! Kawada Mami is fantastic!!! I seriously love this anime and the characters..............even though its YuujixShana forever and I think that Yoshida should go and find someone else and Hecate should stop clinging on to Yuuji..........!!!!!.........

I can see people saying it's a bit slow since there wasn't really any action yet. But screw 'em. :D

I like it a lot, too. The music is great, Shana is as awesome as ever, and Yuji becoming stronger is very interesting. I can't wait to see both of them fight with in the outfits you see in the OP. It should happen before half of the eps have aired since I'm sure we'll get another awesome set of 2nd OPs and EDs.

I'm not against the drama, and I do miss the action but I'll give them the benefit of the doubt for this large build up. I'm enjoying this season a lot and I look forward to each new episode. The thing I'm most excited about is Yuji's burgeoning powers. I'm really curious how adept at combat he'll be. He has been slightly limited in battle, with only a slight burst attack and of course augmenting Shana's powers.

So far it's good but it needs more action within the next 1-2 episodes.

I prefer more first season music than second one =/
only cause they started to show closer relationship between Shana and Yuji, it became better than first season xD

Episodes about the relationships between the characters will definitely go on for the next week, and probably for the one after that as well. I get the feeling it will be the base for all future trials. I don't doubt that we'll get to see some great action soon enough.

I believe that too. Can't be that they centered on the bracelet for a split second just for the fun of it...

First season is full of fighting tomogara

Second season is full of love matters between yuji and shana and yoshida and konoe +ike :D

When I first got in a few episodes I though there was too much love drama going on. Now, I think that it was worth seeing for sure and the series is really picking up its pace with the latest flashback.

i liked the first season because it focused on the growth of the characters through battles, but the second season focuses on the emotional growth of each character. it's nice to learn more about the characters that was left out in the first season

"Didn't". You're all talking like the season is over alredy. It's only been 8 episodes, I will laugh when you all have to take back your words by the time we're 2/3 into Shana II.

I certainly think so. It's a little slower, but it's not as obnoxious as the Shana X yoshida fights that from the first season. If anything, they are starting to get the hang of emotional conflict. And it's more than obvious that girl is Hecate. The very episode Shana tested her identity with that weak Tomogora, you see a guy way too similar(faked death) to it talking to that Bel woman about accomplishing the mission and that no one noticed.This conversation is not referenced in any manner so far, so it doesn't make sense unless it was reffering to Shana's test of the "Hecate look-alike".

And for all those people who were complaining about lack of action. You just got two episodes of Margery and Marcocious cold-blooded deeds (and the added bonus of a hint at what's trapped inside Yuuji alongside the Reiji Maigo). I surely hope that's enough action for you.

I think Shana 2 ist really good up to now and didn't disappoint me in any way.
Instead of showing useless and dump episodes of fighting, they go and develop the story further. I mean this isn't bleach. Fighting/Action is nice but it shouldn't stand at the front.
The only annoying thing for me is Konoe. I hate useless characters like her. (even through i still think she's hecate..)

Like cyruz already said; srew those who say it's lame. :D
That's for my opinion.

Well, I guess adding Konoe pretty much ensured the return of the dreaded Yuji harem problems. I hate Konoe, even more than Yoshida, which is a lot considering I consider Yoshida the most annoying character in Season 1 (Yes, even more than the kissing perverted kids).

BTW, I think there's not a lot of need to add spoilers for anything related to the SnS anime. There's a Spoiler warning already so anyone who enters must ensure they are up-to-date anyway, otherwise it's their own fault. Do use spoiler tags for anything from the novels or manga that hasn't been shown in the Anime though.

It felt like it took a long time to get the plot going to me... a lot of character development, but not enough action for my tastes.

I definitely like the most recent episodes, though! It's getting hard to say which season I preferred. xD

I think the first half of season 1 (the arcs concerning Friagne, Ramie and Shana's past) were the best of the anime series so far, IMO. I'm willing to give Sabrac's an honorary mention, because he's all kinds of awesome and he drew out Willhelmina's awesomeness as well, but he's not gonna be around for long, I expect.

Is there any more story behind this all? I mean of what we did not seen in anime series, there seem to be a quite large ammount of Light novels and other stuff and I wish to make a little research on this before I come up with my idea. I cant japanese so its useless and I allready been diging for 2 days on the nett for Shana with little to no results...

Just wondering if any one knows how the war started and they from Crimson realm started to roam earth realm. How it all started and how the Crimson Lords are born along with Crimson Denizens. As I understand Crimson Denizens is just as Crimson Lord, but he is a bad ass and want to steal power of existance from human beings.

Any way, just watched this anime and love it :) finished off all episodes under 4 days lol. Could not stop watching...

Urgh... That will be difficuld to explain. You have 3 options.

1) Go to animesuki forums and spent 2 days of your life searching for spoilers in Shana novel thread.
2) Wait for the next wave of Shakugan no Shana
3) Learn Japanese.

English translated novels is curently on book 2 and this happened in book 16. So learning japanese will be the fastes way to read them. VIZ taking good time with translations.

Here is a little something from novel book 1, the last part when they fought The Hunter.
