3 years had to pass to hear Kotoko again and it seems her tongue remains as sharp as ever. Can't wait for her naughty comments to come back too.

Pretty nice premiere episode. The case presented was simple yet interesting and the episode also did a wonderful job at refreshing some plot-points some people in the audience might have forgotten such as Kurou's prediction power and how it worked.

Glad she intervened It was painful watching him die even though he can regenerate and does not feel pain

In most cases me neither, but at least I remember that the guy was immortal and girl's connection to youkai. Fight with the doll was enough to acquaintance the viewers with their powers and relationship was obvious from the talk in the apartament. These 3 minutes of exposition over a card game were completely pointless and reek of either laziness or incompetence in writing. 

I get ya however in case you haven't read the room; almost everyone here including myself appreciated those "three minutes" you deemed reeked of laziness or incompetence in writing. You saw it as "pointless" while everyone else called it clever. Glad I'm part of the positive concensus.
What's your point? So called "almost everyone" and "positive consensus" have nothing to do with the quality of the episode. Even if you assume opinions presented in this thread are a good representation of sentiments of all viewers.

That was a good introduction episode for a second season. Good thing they explained their powers in brief, it's been three years so I forgot some of the stuff from the first season.

I missed Kotoko, now I can enjoy the weekly dose of her intellectual blabbering.

Really? Am I missing out on something :⁠-⁠O

Take a poll then. Count those who share your opinion in this thread and be amazed of your lack of awareness. You're completely off-base when you're making this about the entire episode when the concensus was about the 3 minute recap.

And... half of the episode went over my head. I forgot how much talking it has, with Kotoko explaining one thing and another, and then it's actually something else, etc.

Nice reintroduction at the beginning though. I guess, the whole episode wasn't really important, just a reminder of what these characters can do and all that. I hope next episodes will be more interesting.

Great start to the new season ! ^^

I'm surprised that the art and animation quality is still the same as season 1! Usually with most series, it will drop in quality, but that's not the case with this series. The va's sound amazing as the first season too! I am excited to see what happens in this season (✿◠ᴗ◠).

Decent start but nothing great either. The dump at the beginning might be better for those who haven't seen s1 but it also might have been even more confusing for them too.

I haven't seen an anime with an opening that wasn't 1:30 long in over 20 years, I wish more kept their openings short...or non-existent after episode 1. Beyond that, I see this anime still gives more screen time to side characters than the main characters so that's a big thumbs down from me.

I did miss this show, episode one pretty much just recapped the premise of the show which is good for new people.

The first episode of second season is a filler (just read manga before watching second season), so it is a little bit boring and have issues with logic. If you just watch the first season, you can skip it, but it is fine to remind what happens earlier

Right into the thick of things here with the second season. My main hope is that the arcs are 2-3 episodes long, as the Steel Lady Nanase plot of the last season overstayed its welcome.
