Haha, Utaha was brutal, too bad for Eriri, though... Utaha must have gained quite a head start. Regardless, Megumi was still excellent as always.

An enjoyable finale. I'm definitely looking forward to indulging in watching more of Saekano.

So wait, to mask my rage, I need to ask... What? I watched it over a couple times but what happened at the end? I'm just really confused and I have so many questions like: what happened after they missed their train? What did Utaha mean when Shen can go leave him? Did they still go to take the job? Or did they stay with Tomoya. I'm sorry I'm really confused and shallow

Saekano is far from the most stirring series, but what Aki wants is in a way a reflection of what the author must've wanted the series to be too. But what's on its face a simple romance series becomes a lot more when you peel back the layers. It's been a great two seasons and I sure hope they make a season 3 to put a period on this very charming series.

I fucking swear if they don't adapt the rest of the series... BUt anyways, it was good finale, and good season. Lots of drama, but ended in somewhat light note. That kiss tho, who would've thought. Kato ship forever tho. Great series overall, lots of nice and unique satire of harem genre, with interesting script. Really nice animation also.

This has been so enjoyable. Early eps was kind of chore to watch, but it gets more and more interesting later on, with this last eps being a nice climax and closure for this 2nd season. I was expecting more light comedy scenes like s1, but this is actually also so good.

ep9 onward went plotwist explosion with that savage directing.
Eri & Utaha both made terrible mistakes (the way they silently left the circle) but made the right choice working for the famous game. At least Utaha apologized & sincerely reviewed mc's script. Technically Eriri didn't apologize tho she showed remorse.
Yuribait gone & Utaha wins, way to miss a shinkansen train.
ep9-11 also shows Aki changed a lot, tho still same douchebag personality. He no longer pushes Eri and the rest to grow when he used to. His old self mirrors the current Akane. Controlfreak who wanted them for only his own (Iori's comments), seems he's grown out of it when he's genuinely happy for them working for the game. His douchey screams are still hilarious.
So Michi & Izumi probably'll be in the circle.
Kato date 'research' standard but quite meaningful for both of em. Kato didn't hug him... probably fears destroying the group relationship, or wants Aki to get stronger/independent (same hope Utaha said).

Ehhh is fine, typical harem anime where story is stretched because none of the girls will make a move. Humorous enough but other than being cute none of the characters are really distinct. 7/10, s'alright.

I'm sure this was a good season, but these episodes had absolutely zero emotional bearing on me because FFF and Doki left huge 2-3 week gaps between episodes.

I'll give it an 8 under the assumption that I would have given it an 8 if I actually knew what the fuck was going on.

This is what I get for actually giving fansubs the benefit of the doubt for once.

Oh yes Aki x Utaha ship still able to set sail, i was prepared to abandon the ship tho, but Kato would make a perfect waifu, she refreshes Aki's soul right after Utaha and Eri left the circle. Kato proved herself to be worthy of a main heroine and reminded us how cute and pure she is.

I think it would be a better ending if they ended up as a rival i mean Utaha and Eri being on Akane's side, without Aki saying goodbye at the train station.

I doubt there'll be a 3rd season because in the end kato says "oshimai" (kinda lip read that one) which is the end in english so i guess this will be the original ending of the anime.


Overall score 8/0, wouldn't mind for a 3rd season but i doubt it tho

He just gave his glasses to Eriri? What the fuck? Glasses are fucking expensive. Especially for a bitch who abandoned him and left him in the dark.
And then Utaha had a romantic kiss with him, and it was framed in such a way that it seemed like they expected the audience would cheer. Fuck no, she's not the main girl. This episode just had a sweet date with Kato earlier, and I thought that finally we were going to get some exclusivity with her and wrap up the romance nicely, but no. A harem will be a harem, I guess.

AND they missed their train? And they're just like "Oops"?! And now we're just supposed to accept that all of that melodrama that filled the entirety of episodes 9 and 10 were rendered completely pointless?

Fuck this show!

As the first season, it was very good. I didn't expect them to let Tomoya alone on his new game. It was such a good way to end the season.
I'm looking forward to seeing the 3rd season, the progression of the relationship between Tomoya and Katou is so pleasant to watch.

With the amount of stuff the anime team butchered i can't say i'm really happy with S2, but i still hope that they will make another season since they're practically milking all the shit off the sales from megumi and utaha, the amount of events, the amount of merchandise sold!

Utaha snatched the first kiss but megumi still best grill. S3 pls.

Date with best-girl Megumi. She is pushy in just the right ways. It really suits her.

That's right, what Irori was planning was pretty obvious. Let's not forget that Izumi can draw and write.



I wouldn't mind another season. The Megumi + Izumi best-girl power would be off the charts!

4/10 (below average) but I'm going to explain this one because this anime should get a higher score if not for one huge problem... "drive". While I enjoyed each and every episode, I found myself stalled after each one as well. This lack of drive from one episode to the next also put the anime in danger of being dropped even though it was never bad. So, even though I like the anime and the heroines, it's still just a dumb harem.

Now that was kind of sad but enjoyable ending. I like how writer tries to explore human emotions and ambitions. I really like Kato's character development this season. Initially I didn't care much about her but now I can really tell that she is a changed person. The last few episodes also empathised and improved Eriri and Utaha relationship. However, I was disappointed that Michiru got very little screen-time mostly because she wasn't regarded important enough. Also the show was also somewhat tedious from time-to-time to watch.

I feel Kato is someone that I can truly see with Tomoya as a couple but the others not that much. Maybe because both Utaha and Eriri want to progress and be successful in their professional life so they can live up to their reputation which is completely understandable. But despite their feelings for Tomoya, the way Kato supports and encourages Tomoya makes it obvious that she truly understand him on an emotional level. I also feel her feelings for Tomoya are unconditional while I think the others have reasons to like him. Like for Utaha it's her loneliness and for Eriri it's her inspiration. I guess now I can see why the writer projects Kato as the main heroine despite being so bland.

Anyway it was interesting show. I would like to see how the story plays out in the future.

Tbh fuck the 2nd half of this season. Just shit, and the fact that he just accepts it and wishes them well is so aggravating. Like I would of much preferred that he told them both off and broken off their friendship for them doing something so horrible to him. Because at least then I would have something to look forward to in a season three. The way it stands now I have no desire to watch another season. I just feel like I wasted the last 5 hours of my life

After 2 days marathon, this is my conclusion.
I could rated it 8/10 if that bitch and Utaha can give proper separation. But they ruined it, so I can only rated it 6/10. That moment really ruining my enjoyment for this series

I hate that bitch so much. Aki is your childhood friend. Backstabbing your precious friend, TWICE, seriously...
Yet the author create Aki's character is better than what I can see before. He is better than me to forgive the others.

I'm prefer Utaha since 1st season, but because Utaha's wrong move at few last episodes, even her kiss can't make me bit happier.

Hmm

So they get a new artist in the circle and Tomoya is writing on his own? I mean it was obvious since the previous episode but you never know what shit they try to pull off.

Still don't like that but I guess they can't just repeatedly finish a new game without anything happening. Although this entire scenario seems a bit extreme.

All in all it was nice I guess. Enjoyed the first season a lot more but I honestly never expected we'd get a sequel so it was totally fine. Better than nothing at all. I'm really unsure if I want another season though. What's the point if two main characters aren't really part of it (I know they'll find a way but in theory they shouldn't be part of anything very often until after they finished their work).

The scene with Tomoya's new glasses was pretty nice though. Helped to liften the mood a little bit after the heavy air in the past few episodes.

Nice happy ending. It was surprisingly lighthearted, given the earlier episodes. Not sure if that "the end" caption at the end means there will be no S3. The ending was open enough, but she show also works ending like this... I heard the LN volumes cover more story than the anime. We'll have to wait and see if S3 happens, I guess.

Lots of stuff happened. Katou wasn't expresionless at all in this episode. I really liked her. She's a caring girl and the glasses scene was cute and funny. Several other scenes make it look like she won the Tomoyabowl, too. Anyway, I'm happy to see that Tomoya, Utaha and Eriri are on good terms again (even though sexy Utaha stole that kiss omg. Poor Eriri xD) The station scene was very nice and I really liked the faces the girls made and everything. And they missed the train! I saw that happening. haha
Wow! Michiru still exists! I lol'd when the girls pointed out how little screentime she had this season.

This second season was okay. There were some forced drama moments that felt awkward (even though I didn't read the LNs, it was noticeable), but the finale fixed it more or less and the mood of the show became lighter again. Not bad.
