desu is used in Japanese at the end of sentences a bit like how Yoda talks in Star Wars to make something a statement. It is unusual how she emphasizes it though.

The cover art for this season almost looks like a shojo-ai series.

On topic, this is cute as usual. Not currently as fun or crazy as the previous season, but still good.

Cute, but this series will get boring fast if they don't get the ball rolling. It needs some new plot developments or some new characters to keep me interested.

Same here, I didn't wait this long to see the same old skits. But I'm glad it's back, the first episode is obviously here to bring us back to the story and not really move the plot forward, but I think we'll see their relationship develop a lot more this season. I don't really know what happened at the end of the episode, but I'm assuming Rikka found a picture of her beloved Takanashi with that pink haired girl. And I have a gut feeling she's going to move to the apartment above them.

So I'm expecting a love triangle, I just hope it's not too dramatic and over the top, considering we never really had one in the first season (since Nibutani, Dekomori, or sleepyhead never really came off as a potential love interest for the MC).

Still I'm looking forward to the rest of this show, hope there's a good balance between drama and comedy.

Nibutani with black hair is more feminine, lady-like
But her skirt... Too long :(

Actually it's -death
But -desu is acceptable too... Since both are similiar xD

Very promising first episode. I can't stop laughing at all those funny moments. Nibutani's interactions with Dekomori is still fun to watch.

Nibutani's new look is kinda off specially her long skirt although her hair is not that bad.

That battle was awesome. Kyoani outdoing themselves once again with outstanding art and fluid animation.

Looks like we're in for another good season

I thought rikka was cured of her autism at the end of the last season?
So they just decided to reset her and remove all of the character development?
Nice. As expected of Kyoani.

Autism? It was chuunibyou (8th grade syndrome).
If you watched the ending, Yuuta accepted her chuunibyou and she became herself again.

I expected this season to be about Rikka's maturing and embarrassment about her chuunibyou past, with a new chuunibyou character (the pink haired girl) introduced as how Rikka was introduced in Season 1.

I hope episode 2 fast-forwards and Rikka realizes how chuunibyou is embarrassing (with reactions like Yuuta's when remembering his past).

But Chuuni's not really "embarrassing"...it's just having fun. Dekomori has already proven she can have fun, and integrate just fine in society at the same time. She just learned when to have fun, and when to be mindful of others. That's all Rikka really needs to do, and there's already some proof of that in how she's gotten some friends outside of the napping society.

Does anyone think that Rikka sounded a bit different? I'm not sure if it's just me or not.
Other than that loved the first episode of the new season and i agree with op.
And I like what went on how they were all apart of the delusion when Toka showed up.

I also found her voice slightly different, weird since it hasn't really been that long since S1 aired and even in the OVA that aired last year her voice sounded the same as S1.

The action scenes were really good, it would be nice if KyoAni makes a action anime.

The animation seems better then in S1.

All in all i love the show and cant wait for more Yuuta x Rikka. And cant wait to see the new character.

Ah just when I thought they would cut out Rika's sister and Yuuta's family they did appeared towards the end luckily

The new season feels a bit odd to me, it's the same cast overall, it might be the different pacing and camera angles
Everything else was great as usual with Dekomori entering the same high school
The speech at the entrance was entertaining when Nibutani was challenging her as usual

With KLuzuha coming back it'll be less lovey dovey at the house

New OP, ED and soundtracks not as epic as the first season, but that's ok

Nibutani's new hair style is definitely going to take some time to get used to. What's freaking me out even more is her overly long skirt compared to the other students.

Lol, it felt like a battle in Final Fantasy X when they went up against her sister, with the music and Rikka's "summon".
Though I guess it would be IV, since they had 5 party members in battle.

I'm kinda surprised at how easily I adjusted to the new hairstyles. I never noticed she was to much taller than Yuuta.

I can also assume that pink haired girl is the one who moved in above them.

It has been ages since the last season, so I may be wrong here, but if I recall correctly the end of the first season was about to at least partially face reality, but I guess we can throw it out the window since we need more episodes.

Watching it for Dekomori and Nibutani. I few Touka scenes would be nice too 3/5.

Brilliant! So happy this is back. Lovely first episode with plenty of good comedy, good action and good developments. OP was stellar, love ZAQ songs! Those revolving animations were unbelievably. ED was also very cool but I had a minor complaint about the nudity in it which I don't associate the series with. Apart from that, super fun ep!

Personally, I think this is mostly a perfect return to the series and I really can't wait for more!

I LOVE THE FIGHT POWER scene.

There is nothing that it overlooks. If this eye cannot see a thing, then it does not exist. That is the assumption under which I have always fought. What is this "heart"?

5/5

The striking thing is always the excellent technical realization and graphics.
Nice to see Dekomori, Rikka, and Nibutani Kumin, but I want a narrative that bissi what we have seen in the previous season. Fun to see Nibutani and Dekomori in new clothes, but the rest reflected old patterns already seen.
For now, my vote is for 7/10!
