----------------------------------------
Aram himself faced quite a challenge against Yuuri this episode. Bet he wasn't expecting that.

At this point, I'm pretty much convinced that the Darkness is the real Big Bad. Yuri just happened to be another victim while his friends wants to save him. The battle between Aram and Yuri was the highlight of this movie imo. Really a shame how far Yuri has fallen...

Oh, I did like that they give the other commanders some relevance rather than making them look like jobbers. The focus on the Chronicle seems to be another prominent element in the storytelling. A bit generic in terms of exploring Yuri's past though.

That side switch by Yuri though. Although you can sort of predict it based on Phoena's worrisome reactions to Yuri all the time.

Although the anime is not focused on romance, any one also on the Yuri X Phoena ship? Phoena was portraying her feelings a lot in this second movie for Yuri.

I hope the last movie shifts Yuri back into the main spotlight, for the first two movies, I feel as though ARAM is more of the m/c than Yuri is suppose to be.

phew that was pretty good
the naked boobie demon is back!!!!
thats scene where Yuri consumed by malevolence is pretty good, they made it side by side with the queen coronation, hope & despair
during yuri backstory and next episode preview, it seems Aram is the true protagonist here instead of Yuri
1 more month until the final movie, I hope they give us satisfying ending instead of cliffhanger bait to play the game "MAYBE YOU CAN DEFEAT THE BLACK KING NEXT TIME!" like in the recent Fate mobile game anime

It's a full length feature film. However, for streaming, it's released in 4 parts, each congruent to one of the anime series episodes.

That's what I thought....I was streaming it and everywhere I went only had the first part of it so I was confused seeing as though all 4 parts are released the same time, but I found a torrent for them all

Twas pretty sad to see Yuri turn to the darkness.....Felt so bad for the entire crew too and that damn traitorous Ogre King needs a good beating too

Great second film overall though, loved the suspense and personal moments and the action scenes continue to be awesome....We even got a good amount of backstory too

I like Naobou's songs (OP & IN (around TV ep.7 part)) in this movie. So this is the reason Aram is introduced, to help Yuri.

Hurray for posts being deleted...

Anyway, the series is getting worse and worse as it is devolving into little kid fare. The power of friendship solving problems, people trying to murder other people for no good reason then allying, a stupid fluffy animal meant for 5 year olds that understands English and has some horrible voice acting by a woman making squeaking noises. What a brainless pile of poop this is becoming.

So the real main character is aram? And if that old sage made him that powerfull couldnt he have done the same to yuri the first time since it seemed they were friends.
Man this was turning pretty interesting but the last 15 minutes ruined everything. Yuri is weak af even when he turned demon. But oh well supposedly i should have played the game or w/e it is my fault wasting time here anyway.

op mostly recap, op/ed songs still nice.
Action & bgs still great. But some generic dialogue really dragging it, need friendship power for dat chain attack, oh nos Aram u always alone, when did he start caring for all the apple grannies? Some more come to darkness talk. Tho demonboobie's ploy to make Yuuri stab that dude was good, as it showed how weak both physically & mentally Yuuri is (& he knows it so he entrusted 'light' to Aram), and contrasting with Juliana. But lots of stupid stuff like sword & shield knight not using either, but his body to block Yuuri lol, same with the metal stick father at the end.

Only Aram & healer dissing, and Ogre lord talk & ability to control dark power were any fun. The rest feels boring tho it's making progress.

random Songstress, sounds like macross.
random furball, probably related to Pirika or sage.
Gilgamesh was Yuuri's sensei.
So artifact sword can bleach the darkness wut they waiting for?
Anti Shuza ogres meet Juliana.

Well, I am disappointed. I hope that Yuuri will come back to Phoena. I not really like Aram, but well, it looks like he is now main hero. Bah, it tastes a bit bittersweet all this second part.

In this second movie we get revealed of how cheesy, cliche and predictable the show is. Apart from that, it is terribly written and with a set of uninteresting characters. Not going to come back for the final movie.

Didn't really enjoy the second movie as much as the first. Kinda felt a little bit too cheesy at times.

Score: 3/10

Main characters (and secondary + antagonists) very clichés despite an attempt of development. The characters are useless and have the NPC role.
Animation has deteriorated with the excessive use of CGI on movements that don't appear natural.
The story is very banal with a wicked king of darkness and several armies fighting against this king. Many dialogue cliches around the light and the darkness. It's even worse than Kingdom Hearts!!
Many inconsistencies: why Yuri comes to the island to corrupt the Chronicle?
Why is Pirika alive? (We hear her voice at random and then?)
Why is not Phoena more shocked by his father's behavior?
Why is Aram so unbearable?
...

The music is so bad and even the Nano ED is the worst performance I could hear. :/

PPretty hard reactions of disappointment here. It's strange because outside of the chosen starting point, there was absolutely nothing peculiar about the first chapter everyone saw before. And this second chapter actually follows to the letter the road of blandness and "predictability" layered by its predecessor.

My only surprise was the Black Knight design: it looks nothing like the tainted person he's supposed to be, the B.K. is even taller (only similar point : their voice). That's weird when you compare the princess' knight transformation.

For the music to be "bad", it would require to do less than it is doing. Because it actually accompanies the scenes correctly, no matter how forgettable it is.

Enjoyment: 4/5
Score: 6/10 Confirming how ordinary it is.

The fight scenes stagnated and the impact lessen, especially that cringe worthy golem user, she's the worst character so far.
