| The starting voice over was weird. Using the old OP feels cheap, almost like they ran out of budget... Pacing was off, animation a little stilted and I'm not sure I care for where the story is going. This could be my biggest let down of the year, damn. Edit: not to mention the ED. What the fuck was that? It looks and sounds terrible, and not in a deliberate, artsy kind of way. If you told me this was someone's first Sony Vegas edit I'd believe it. Holy shit. |
| Even though it's the same op song, but with the visuals it's still really great op! Quite a surprise at the end, I though she is still on the island, also the pacing seems a bit fast. |

It was necessary to narrate as Fushi at the beginning to introduce us with how Fushi lived on an unhabited island for forty years. They don't ran out of budget, if you watch carefuly animation is very good, the same as in the first season. Pacing is normal, not off. Overall this season is as amazing as the first one! I can't comprehend all your pretensions. Only in one I agree: the awful ED. It was like a kid did it. It really is bad looking. takamono said: Even though it's the same op song, but with the visuals it's still really great op!

It was also paced a bit fast. OP is great, I agree! Visuals are stunning! |

| western morning glory is indeed not so effective |
| Same opening for this season too.. like it'd be 40 episodes old by the end of this season xD Talking about 40, that's the exact years of time skip we had coming from the first season to this season, means Fushi's a full grown man now. Though that doesn't change the fact he still fighting those Nokkers day in and day out. Reincarnated(lol) Hayase's here too and.. yes she's giving those western glories like her grandma. Fushi didn't recognize Tonari though I think he'll by the next time, so looking forward to that atleast. At last hoping this season follows the footsteps of the first one. ED was.. what again? |
 |
| Really hitting the ground running here. Cool to be bringing Tonari back as like a 50 odd year old woman. Also fuck Hayase and her clan. Her grand daughter was giving massive sketchy vibes for sure |
| I already hate Hisame. Also, how did Fushi not recognize Tonari lol |
| I’m so glad they didn’t try to replace pink blood. It was no topping that anyway. Utada Hikaru masterclass |
 |
| Same old opening lol, this isn't 2002 anymore, anime change their openings frequently now. All the reasons I'm seeing are just pure cope. Good first episode though. |
| The interaction with Hisame felt off, is this really how someone would react after 40 years of no-contact? lol Especially Tonari... Surprisingly the Black Hood guy gets lip-synching movements?!Woah! |
| August 6th 2023: Biggest upset ever, deception, selfishness, or scammed, manipulated. Heavy damage costs, and more. Days since: 15 Last updated: 8/21/2023 One Piece Episode 1041 & 1042 & 1047 & 1048 & 95.75%/1049 & 1053 were a mistake and Uta brought the salvation -AhriTheS3xyFox |
| If Hisame also wants to get impregnated by Fushi, I'm 100% done with this show. But oh boy... less than 10 minutes into the episode and I'm already having such a bad feeling about this first arc/cour. As with Season 1, everything Hayase-related just screams bad writing and regarding Tonari, I honestly don't know what to think of her reappearing in the story. Especially after the disaster that was the Jananda arc. But well, that was that. And on a final note, what... the... fuck... was that ED? |
SouthRzVa said: If Hisame also wants to get impregnated by Fushi, I'm 100% done with this show. My feelings exactly! Going by the comments on the manga, Hayase seems to continue pursuing Fushi throughout the ages, and she's crazy about him, so... That does seem to be the way this is heading. What a shame, though, I like basically everything else about Fumetsu no Anata e, but if this whole "obsessive love chase" becomes the major plotline I'm so outta here. It was okay in S01 because it wasn't truly the focus, but with the way it was introduced so early on this time 'round, I feel like S02 is gonna put the pedal to the metal in that regard. Gotta give it a few more episodes because I'm really interested in the other characters and their storylines. Damn you, Hayase, for getting in the way of my following Fushi's journey! |
| Am I the only one who thought this episode was one of the most rushed things ever in terms of pacing? Why are they talking endlessly and theres nothing stopping them in the middle. I feel the plot is moving way too fast and the reveals don't have any sort of impact thanks to it. No clue why. I love fumetsu and I hope this doesn't continue. |
| Can't get enough of that laugh Fushi did upon learning about Hayase's death. So her Hayase's lineage set up the guardians where they preach about Fushi like a hero or maybe even a messiah? Hiyame is doing all the tricks Hayase did including the poison and the jelly. She's pissed af when Tonari (lookin well 40 years later) has outwitted herb Are the guardians a third faction since Hiyame keeps the same nokker in her body, did the nokker enter a symbiotic relationship instead of a parasitic one? Also, Nokker jerky. Fushi's resourceful... |

 Novels I have read/am reading pending approval: since November 10 2022 |
| oh man! felt like a lot happened and Fushi became mature! he is more aloof because he doesn't want humans get involved with Nokkers... 4/5 but at least they should have made a new OP & ED...hmmm oh well |
 |
| why did that preview spoil the plot development of the next episode...? :( |
| Seeing how Fushi has become this secluded, bitter old man who pushes everyone away that tries to come close honestly makes a lot of sense considering all that he's been through already. After March, Parona, Gugu, and most recently Pioran, I really can't blame him. As a manga reader, I'm really looking forward to the community's overall reaction to this arc being animated. I genuinely can't wait! I am slightly disappointed that we didn't get a new OP since Pink Blood does get a bit repetitive, but the visuals were really nice. |

| Great start to a new season! Damn 40 years has passed already... Fushi doesn't look like a boy anymore lmao. Opening is the same like in the 1st season and I fucking love it! Can't wait to see the rest of the show! |
| Sorry for my english xD! RIP Kentaro Miura :( RIP Akira Toriyama :(  |
| Interesting first episode where Inmo was 40 years apart from everything, until.... kekeke |
| We watched the first episode of season 2 last night and I have mixed feelings. It is obvious that not the same level of care has been taken with the imagery of Fushi. He's the main character, yet it seems the quality control was lacking on his presentation. He comes across too ordinary now, like other anime characters--gone is that special charisma that made him magically special before. And in a lot of scenes, the anatomy is simply wrong, or deformed. Whomever is doing the animation here just doesn't know the human anatomy like the people that drew season one. So they used a different studio? They should have stayed with the formula that worked. This is not Fushi as I knew him. This character seems alien to me. The fact that they used the same op music and the less than moving end theme this time around left me feeling that the show was facing budget constraints. I sure hope there's a Season 3 and that Brains Base is back in the driver seat for that. This season is somewhat disappointing. If they can't get the MC to look like himself, it's bad news. |

I have mixed feelings about this new season. The biggest problem is the art. That is not the Fushi I know from the manga. Half the time he looks like an aging rock star on drugs. The other half they can't even draw his anatomy correctly. Why or why didn't Brains Base continue for this season? It almost seems like the first season was a happy accident of everything working together in perfect synergy. An yeah, that opening voice over, who even WAS that?? I think the flagging Japanese economy plays a role here--there a cost cutting measures and unfortunately, they cut some of the most important things. Fushi's very soul does not seem present in this new design. The MC depicted reminds me of other anime characters. That does not seem like Fushi. I signed up for Twitter last night and I found that I could follow Reiji Kawashima, so I did. And I messaged him just a few minutes ago. I wrote: "I am a big fan of Fumetsu no Anata e. Fushi is my favorite character of all time. Your acting is perfect. You are Fushi. Season 1 was great. Brains Base did a fantastic job. However, season 2 has lost a lot of the magic. The character design of Fushi is not up to the great standards that made his almost magical aura. I hope that you will share my feedback with the studio. Hoping they will bring back Brains Base for season 3. I really want to see Fushi in the modern world!" |
| Seeing Tonari reunite with Fushi makes me so happy ^^ |
| It's back and it looks better than ever. The OP is the same but still has the same impact, the ED is new and very good. I like it very much. I will try not to attach myself with any characters in this show because you know... Also, will be interesting to see things from her on out and Fushi will handle things. It's been 40 years after all. Tonari has grown into a fine woman and she's here to protect Fushi. |
