probably one of the best starting episodes this season.we already get an introduction to the world once again, as well as the current state the it's in. the introduction of our main character Nina who although a bit annoying is also a bundle of personality. there was a good amount of action going on., and reintroduction of characters. the Art/animation is still as good as it was last season, and the soundtrack was great as well

Man this episode was great all around. We get to see Nina and a glimpse at what kind of person she is. Then we get my main dudes Bacchus and Kaiser back into the story, just them doing their own things and then there's that ragged dude.

I lol'd so hard when he was running away from Nina and in turn Nina just ran uber fucking fast. Nina seems OP as fuck. She's cute, has the strength of 10+ men and is a dragon. Instant wife material right there <3

Also, god bless MAPPA for being one of the few studios that doesn't have shitty CG in their shows. The CG was fluid and on point for those big ass knights.

I can't wait to see what happens next!

Exactly my thoughts. MAPPA has been the only studio I can think of that uses quite a bit of CG that doesn't suck.

I honestly don't remember ANYTHING from the first season, not couting the main characters, wasn't Azazel a bad guy there or something? I wonder if this season's gonna be about "humans can be more evil than demons themselves" sort of thing.


Azazel was just a demon loyal to his king, though he was perceived to be a bad guy by the audience because he opposed the main characters. You gotta remember that Favaro and the others were tricked by the real bad guys in order to awaken Bahamut, so by opposing them he was technically on the "good side".
Also, with a two cour run, I'd wager that there'll be much more to the story than that ;)

so 10 year has passed and Kaisai is still the same, I wonder where's Favaro!
new Girl Nina is energetic and looks like she's the next center of attention because she can turn into a red dragon!
OST classical was the highlights!
5/5.

Very pretty animation and nice new character designs. The red dragon looks a bit goofy though.

I'm very glad that this is a 2-cour. Looking forward for this!

I somehow thought Nina was the lovechild of Favaro and Amira, tbh.

I mean, I don't think she has ties to Favaro, but Nina and Amira have very similar chara designs so I wouldn't be surprised if it turns out they're related one way or another. Also, she can turn into a dragon and Amira did fuse with Bahamut which is also a dragon. Pretty sure it will come into play later on.

Holy shit! I wasn't expecting that! I thought Nina was just some teen girl whose hormones were in overdrive, turns out when she's "excited" she transforms into a dragon. Can't wait to see how this plays out considering there are good looking guys everywhere in this anime!

Poor Kaisar...

I'm glad to see most characters from previous season in this new season, but, WHERE THE HECK IS MY MAN FAVARO!? Hope he will show up ASAP, because he's one of the reasons why I'm loving this series <3

Bahamut is back, finally. It's was fun and interesting start. Nina is really likeable and fun protagonist, and she has great facial expressions. Whenever she sees a hot guy, she might turn into a dragon - I hope this won't turn into a reverse harem XD
Humans ruining the harmony between other races, and treating demons like slaves - cruel, but oh so real.
It was nice seeing Kaisar and Rita back, now all we need is FAVAROOOO!

My problem exactly. Worst of all, I can't remember the king: Charioce (or Chariot or whatever, let's call him 'Chariot') appearing in the first season at all.

Humans do seem to be the evil ones this season, save for Kaisar and master mason. Then again, even in season one it was made quite clear that they were all just warring races really, rather than good and evil. Regarding Lucifer and Azazel: I don't remember that either, but I think Azazel was the bad guy trying to overthrow Lucifer, and this must be Lucifer, since Lucifer as a fallen angel would be the only 'daemon' with feathered (rather than webbed) wings.

My questions are, apart from who king Chariot is: what happened to Favaro, what happened to Jeanne, what happened to all the prominent angels, and why are Kaisar and Rita no longer together?

Okay so here are some answers, as I rewatched the first season a couple months ago.

1) There was a different king in season 1 but he died at the end, when Bahamut was going on a rampage. The king appearing in this episode is a new one, potentially his successor.

2) Azazel wasn't the bad guy trying to overthrow Lucifer, that's Belzebuth. Though Azazel was seen as a bad guy through most of the series because he was opposing the MCs, he uncovered the treason of Belzebuth and then fought alongside the others in the end to stop Bahamut.

3) Last we know, Favaro went back to being a bounty hunter and Jeanne returned to being a knight although falling from grace. But that was 10 years ago and we'll surely learn more about them as the story progresses. Concerning the prominent angels from last season, most of them died at the end, either by the hand of "corrupted Jeanne" or by Bahamut.

Oh, Shingeki no Bahamut, how I missed you.
I missed Kaiser. I missed Rita. And of course, I missed Favarooo!
This first episode was just as good as I expected. I'm liking Nina already, lol.
This show really knows how to make likable characters, I love it.

Art and animation are amazing as usual, and the soundtrack is on point.
Definitely my most anticipated anime of the season, up there with AoT S2 and My Hero Academia S2.
I'm so happy it's 24 episodes!!

I seem to be one of the few that don't like Nina. At least judging from the first episode. That may change in future episodes.
Other than that though, the first episode was pretty good. I had hopes to see Favaro in this episode at least once, but oh well. He'll appear sooner or later.

A correct start for a full-length series, tganks to the non-obtrusive introduction of the situation and heroin.
The incoming era of humanity is interesting after the first series made humans so caught in-between.

3/5 Now, if only they did write something worth the series length unlike the first time, it will be at least decent. (not expecting something more than pure entertainment from this, obviously)


Why do people sound hell bent on getting back the previous main characters? If the full old party is injected back in this series for too long, it will only cast a shadow on the new party to come (one "veteran" along the new heroes should be more than enough).


Shingeki no Bahamut - Short Story is an epilogue to the first series and more importantly... Favarooooooooooooooooo! is there xD

Even more importantly, Hayashibara is there !

Interesting start.

The humans are waging war against the gods now. I can't really blame them. The new king seems to be a first-grade prick though.

I'm not sure about the new girl. Her dragon form was cool though.

Azazel works for the humans while secretly freeing demon slaves.

It's nice to see best girl again.

It's a damn travesty that the less popular game gets the good anime (Rage of Bahamut) while the more popular one that I play (Granblue Fantasy) gets the short end of the stick.

Not like I'd have it any other way. Excellent start. Nina a CUTE.

I might need to re-watch at least the season one finale, but frankly I hate rewatching (almost) anything.

Luckily, the shorts explained a lot.

10 years time skip? I guess continuing directly after s1 wouldn't make much sense. But this also takes "reviving" Amira out as a possibility, too, and I'm not too happy about that D: As unlikely as it was anyway I still was hoping for it... And no Favaro in the first episode >.> Only short scenes with Kaisar but also without Rita :( well I guess she was in the last scene before the credits.

Hope the main characters are still that and we won't get an entirely new story.

Also there is something wrong if the most likable character in episode 1 is one of the antagonists of the first season. Poor Azazel just trying to help mistreated demons.

Glad Nina wasn't annoying like the pvs imply, tho her screams are too much for the mic. Good dose of funny & epic.
Forgot the mecha & dragons, both look great.
Kaiser still a pushover lackey lol. Azazel fight was great, might need to rewatch s1 forgot a lot. New character (Mugaro?) has kiss of death?
Yay most hyped for Rita & Hamsa return. Strange "printer" ducky has.
Nina so horny she became a dragon lol.

Well you know Bahamut is a dragon and Nina can turn into a dragon. Would be surprised if there is not some kind of connection which could lead to discovering a way to save Amira.
