It's been 2 years, but welcome back, Anos VoldiGOAT! Albeit with Goblin Slayer's VA this time, gonna miss Tatsuhisa Suzuki's voice. Gotta say, Yuuichirou Umehara fits the bill just as good.
Season 2 immediately starting off with the flashback of the confrontation with the Great Spirit Mother Leno, and the Demon King of Tyranny Anos is back to deal with more evil unforgivings with his bodyguard Shin Regha, together with the eventual Hero Kanon's arrival and face-off.
Nice to see the Anos Fan Club, the Necron sisters Sasha and Misha, Lay and the rest of the cast back. Only this time, with new characters: the Biance sisters Eleonore and Zethia from the Hero Academy (with the obvious connection to Anos), and the new homeroom teacher Erdomaid Diitijohn (one of the 4 Evil Royals: the Blaze Death King, which he is actually the Heavenly Father God NousGalia) who is aware of Anos's presence as the true Demon Lord, and in the world that's now in peace, the name is abolished (though it still stands).
Anos vs. NousGalia in retaliation of the latter's plot to restore order, the former's same "reincarnation after death" order still stands, and its omniscience is just as strong. The search for the Child of God within the Academy before havoc strikes again, it's tantamount. This is even more so for Lay, which Misa shoulders her life for her future with him, sealed with a kiss. And one by one, people start showing up attacking the students from within, facing the 4 Evil Royals from 2,000 years ago, bonded together also to seatch for the Child of God.
They aren't kidding around this time: the introduction straight into Volume 4 Act 1 of the LN: the Great Spirit Arc, getting into the nitty-gritty of things in preparation for the things to come. I will anticipate in hot return of what the GOAT has in store. |
