Zhit hits the fan. That Kaguha really is one smart, manipulating and vicious bastard. Bishamon and Yato really are going to kill each other at this rate.

Bishamon is so naive.

So far everything has been playing into the enemies hands for the most part, too one sided imo.

That felt like some shitty drama to be honest.

> Yato not telling Yukine the truth about his friend, Kazuha
> Carelessly distracted by food despite knowing that the cherry tree was dangerous and Yukine was heading to it

> Bishamon was so easily tricked by the guy who came out of season 2 episode 1 and is apparently the big shot of this arc.
> 2 to 3 "fake" rumours and voila she is brainwashed.
> Let's attempt to banish Kazuma because "I believe he betrayed me", not like he was beside you all these times helping you out, you know, not at all.

What annoyed me the most is that the Sugaha dude had so much influence on the others' mind, and unless he used some sort of hypnotism magic, I find that totally unbelievable, which make the other characters seem really (to put it positively) naive.

Though from what I have read in this thread, it seems that the pacing of the anime is indeed the issue for how easily Bishamon fell for the lies.

Edit: Yuki Kaji's shouting/crying voice is pretty dang annoying. :/

Yato ought to stop beating around the bush and be more straightforward with Yukine. By now he should be knowing better than to say "Don't do X" and expect Yukine to abide by his orders, considering the latter's stubbornness and rebellious tendencies. One of the factors that contributed to the whole debacle involving Yukine in the previous season is precisely this, and it seems like Yato still hasn't learned his lesson. Or rather, it's a convenient (read: blatantly convenient) way for the writer(s) to create drama. As much devastating as the news of Suzuha's death is, why hesitate to break it to Yukine and lay bare all the risks entailing further involvement in matters pertaining to this deceased regalia of Bishamon? Instead what Yato does is to simply tell Yukine to stay away from the cherry tree, and the latter as usual doesn't care to listen to him.

Just what the fuck is that Dr. Kuga? Why is Kazuma's restraints are not working on him? Fucking mofo.

Also Yukine's still an annoying brat. And Yato's at fault too. If he told Yukine why he should avoid that tree, told him phantoms appear there and that they killed his friend, maybe Yukine would've listened to him...

Yukine is really a troublemaker. Good thing Kazuma isn't expelled completely.
DON'T THEY DARE KILL KAZUMA. HE'S SO CUTE.
Dat witch doctor... ugh. He annoys me. He just hides Aiha's infection and plots evil stuff. Seriously, he needs to die.

Naive Bishamon; Yato always being rude and funny at the same time (not to mention to finally show feelings to Hiyori while blushing); Yukine having an emotional breakdown... What's next? :( The episodes keeps geting darker and darker.

Kugaha is one hell a mad doctor. Very twisted minded and scary character D:

As I expected, Yuki bravely drops the truth on how Bishamon can't care for Suzuha because she got too many divine instruments. Then he got into a period of depression...

I felt sorry for Kazuma after he got exiled, at least he is still Bishamon's

I'm loving this season so far but I'm super frustrated on how Kugaha manipulated everyone so flawlessly. He built up that trustworthy persona so well that he planted so many seeds of doubt without being suspected once. He's doing a great job as a villain because I'm pissed at him.

Hiyori read Yato's worry perfectly and promised to meet him every day and not to forget him. I hope she'll do her best to keep that promise even if it'll be unlikely.

Aiha's toxic jealousy for essentially being replaced reached new lows when she eagerly used the scourge as a weapon to take Hiyori hostage to impress her master. I'll be super mad if Bishamon will choose the doctor when she's forced to choose who to trust between Kazuma and Kugaha because of her undying resentment towards Yato in general. To think that she'll prefer listening to a shady doctor who doesn't even do his job over the Regalia who maximizes the potential of her most powerful weapons who also never let her down once is absurd but likely to happen considering her decisions so far.

Suzuha is evidence that sometimes the side characters are the most interesting. 10/10 character arc.

Kinda wish yato would tell bishamon what he really did instead of letting her fester this much hate towards him. Why is the doctor so evil like what happened? Im sure bishamon calls his name often. Bishamon wants to save all but forgets to continue to treat them well. just calling out to them and making the her own doesnt do much for them

i'm having a hard time believing that two war gods and a slew of regalia are that easily fooled by a single, shady regalia. i hope this ends soon and that guy dies horribly and slowly because it's aggravating. i guess you could say that's good writing, but when something this annoying goes on for too long without any relief or parallel plot lines it can get to the point of absolute frustration.

I HATE YUKINEEEE!
Honestly, why is he such a brat? kusogaki is the best word for him..I know he's a young teenager and all but whyyy WHYY can't he just listen to what he's told for once?!
You'd think he'd listen to Yato after all the agony he had caused him in season 1 but no..he continues to just wreck havoc everywhere.

Anyways, Kugaha must be having a blast right now.

Making the crux of this season Bishamon's suffering is an interesting choice given she's not a very sympathetic character and is actually quite annoying. Her regalia are all nice so it mostly works but the high part of the stakes being something I could not care less about is not good. Showing that she rescues random lost spirits helps make her a little likeable but there was a whole season of her just screaming and mindlessly attacking the MC and her having a bunch of emotional outbursts against Kazuma just makes me like her less this season so...not sure why they think viewers would be concerned that she's dying.

3 episodes in and im extremely disappointed in this 2nd season. It feels like a complete rehash of the first season, with the added downside of all of the main characters being completely reverted to their beginning of season 1 pre development personalities, but also made to be as dumb as possible, all to force the plot and force drama. So many shows fall to this same BS, its annoying.

This was one hell of an episode man, This anime is amazing for making every episode feel like so many in one, Mr Kuzama or Kuzaha i can't remember his name exactly got banished after Protecting Yukine so now he is a Nora Regalia which is not much good for him but at least now he is on Yato's side so we have an extra memeber to the party, I reckon the rest of the season will be about fighting Bishamon and Bishamon slowing losing power to the point where Yato can kill her and everyone can finally live happily ever after. Yukine also found out that Suzaha has passed away so he's been weeping like crazy which is all he ever seems to do at this point but if you gotta cry, cry I guess. Well because of this Yato has been wreaked when he was attacked by Aiha to the point where now Hiyori has been captured, Really nothing ever goes well for that girl and I reckon she's gonna be captured for the next long while if I am honest. Well now everything has gone to shit so lets see how this ends up in episode 4.

So... does Kugaha have a another name or something? I don't see how else he's been able to do everything so far without anyone else knowing. Or maybe it's that thing on his leg?

Good villain so far. Everything is going their way right now.



Now Hiyori has been taken and Kazuma forced to sleep.
