| I think it's the twist on an already mainstream series that I like. I've seen Sherlock's story being told to death, but telling the story of Moriarty is refreshing and unique. The visuals of the series are great, the mystery and plotting is great, you really see a criminal mastermind with Moriarty. The soundtrack is also amazing. The character development and relationships are really good for some characters. S2 is just buildup so far, they're setting up the world around Moriarty and his rivals. And you still get to see Moriarty in full action with his elaborate schemes and plots. Obviously, they can't reveal everything to you because that takes away the suspense, but everything about this show is great. |

| Cause I'm a big fan of the original Sherlock Holmes novels and I find it fun to watch almost everything based on it. |

| I always liked movies or series about Sherlock Holmes, and after knowing that this anime was even more focused on his enemy Moriarty it was the main reason to start watching this show, and I enjoyed it. Along with Sherlock and Moriarty, I also love shows with the seting of19th century British and that's a must do for a show about Sherlock (let's forget Kabukicho Sherlock or others like this). There are some amazing moments and this second season features more characters that are really good "interpretations" of the characters from the original novels, by this I mean that the characters have great parts based on the novels (obviously) and that the author knows how to play with this very well making the characters different but respecting their original essence. |

| I really like the plot and the twisted sense of justice of Moriarty. The need to purge society from aristocracy to save the lower classes, the master schemes of Moriarty that are really well thought of, and finally his interactions with Sherlock. All of these are things I really like about the show. The episodes where Sherlock and William are featured together are one of the most thrilling of the show. I find it really enjoyable, the art and animation also compliment the story and I think the studio cared about every small detail. |

Ephraim_Renais said: So I think so far its been just fine. I thought that the first 3 episodes were really good and the OP/ED are absolute bangers. But overall I think its just meh. There is some buildup sure, but the show dosen't even feel about Moriarty anymore. So I was just curious what do people like about this show. Is it just the hot dudes or something else? Its a story about a freethinker villain who actually is your edgy anti hero who tries to use his freethinker abilities to save poor oppressed lower class citizens against the big bad rich people who actually pay for their rent, and that clicks with many young people these days. Add hot boys into the mixture and you have this. Did i already mention pretentious story and characters ? I think pretentious is the best description of this show. And again many people do like pretentious stories. Its like Code Geass of the new generation if you like. |

| 1. Visually appealing 2. William is a briliant villain 3. Best portrayal of Holmes 4. Likable characters (Moran, Jack, Adler, Holmes's brother and others) 5. In terms of it's genre, it's not the best mystery, but it is at least in top 10 for me. |
