| Great first episode, already leagues above most of the garbage airing this season. I missed this cast. |
| Good but the directing isn't as smooth as the original especially the music. Animation is as good as ever if not better though. |
 |
| was it not "white" in the ending (twintail girl för a second) ? |
| It's been several seasons and I already forgot the plot of the first season. What I do remember is the craziness, randomness, and ridiculousness of it. I'm still not sure if its "good" or "bad" but it's certainly a fun one. |
All people have their own sh*t tastes, therefore, there are no sh*t tastes, since everything is equally sh*t. A VERY LOGICAL PHILOSOPHY |
| Leo was screaming a lot in this episode, but I'm fine with how it sounded. Unlike a certain title. :) |
 |
| I missed the show's quirkiness <3 :D |
| The opening was okay not even close to the first season. Soundtrack was on point, overall enjoyable episode. |
| And this series returns in full glory and majesty with all of its absurdity and humor for a dynamic ride that never feels like 20 minutes. That is proof of a good series. |
 |
| RIP Double X. :( Wow, this show is still as wild as ever. The first episode pretty much represents everything about this series and despite more being a sequel it imo gave the general details you need to know without being to overbearing. It's just a fun show about eccentric characters doing wacky things. I like alos the little shout to White just for the sake of continuity nod even if she is non-canon. New OP isn't as good as the old one, but it's fine. |
| I hate the intro honestly. lol. I would've preferred a different style. The episode was alright. When I watched the first season I didn't watch Gintama yet. Now that I am watching this second season I only see now how much comparison it has with Gintama, lol. (some voice actors ofcourse, but mostly the style/environment/type of humor). Will watch this season for sure. Kind of hope they will do the story a bit better. I honestly forgot everything of season 1 and usually stories are stuck in my head. |

Saw it. Did you see White? The Op isn't as nice as the last one imo, but then again it would be hard to match or even top that. I was worried that the new director would make it less wacky but from this episode it'll be as strong as ever. The animation was also glorious. https://sakugabooru.com/post/show/39920 |

| Fking loved it! Leonardo and co are back! Not impressed with the animation but otherwise it was everything Kekkai Sensen is and was in the first season |
 |
| Yep, twice. One in the opening and another time at the end when Leonardo is remembering his time in the city. |

Fai said: In a lot of ways this both reassured me and disappointed me. OP is extremely inferior to the first one. EXTREMELY. Its in no way even close to the first OP and way too frantic/actiony/generic. Lacks the clever transitions and framing first op had. Overall this truly does feel like Kekkai Sensen: The Discount Edition. The show tries to be similar to first season and all but without Matsumoto Rie it ends up feeling like inferior imitation for most of the episode. Most of clever storyboarding of first season is missing, visuals are not as sharp nor as lively, etc. Its still a good show but it will never match the first season visually or creatively. Its better than I expected, but its nowhere near what was, so getting rid of Rie still feels like a huge mistake. Still a strong 7 so far. Hopefully rises to 8 by the end if the quality does not fall down the cliff from the first episode. Epicenter said: IDK what you mean, politicians(for better or worse) can't do what they want all the time, it was one of the more profound statements. You DO know WHO US has as a president right now right? Lunatics running the asylum and all that. Its extremely ironic to have US be source of reason in show with statements like that, considering the reality. Yeah, Trump. Who for better or worse cannot get his wall(which is what he ranted so much about), removal of Obamacare, etc passed. The only thing he can do is push what the establishment and big money people wanted, military industrial complex and maybe tax cuts, he's just another puppet. |
| Jaywalker. |
| I forgot how crazy and hilarious this city and cast are xDD Feels so good to be back here with these guys "X! X! Double X!" LMFAOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO |
| This was exactly what I was hoping for. The scene where Leonardo wakes up falling from the sky with a fetal demon attached to his head was priceless. |
| Still the same zany characters and manic energy. This show is a triumph of style over substance but I like it for the chances they take. |

| Amazing episode, this second season gives me the happiness that I don't feeling with the anime for some seasons, I wait for this continuation for a long time and now I can say I'm in love with this saga. Awesome episode. 5/5  |
 |
Is no one going to talk about this small easter egg!?  |
| The lack of HWAITO is sad, but hopefully there will be some plot here |
| Don't forget. Always, somewhere, someone is fighting for you. As long as you remember her, you are not alone. |
| Absolutely wonderful. This was a perfect mix of action and comedy. The story itself was a terrific way of introducing us to the world of Hellsalem's Lot again. The soundtrack was dank as hell of course. This was channeling some Samurai Champloo vibes and I loved it! Laughed out loud multiple times through this one. This was by far the strongest first episode of the Fall season. I'm so, so thankful for this to be back. Nice catch! Completely missed that my first time watching. I'd love to see more Trigun references, especially Meryl and Milly. |
| Haha crazy as ever, I'm glad this series is back. |
 |
| I thought this was a great start to season two. Crazy and all over the place like always. Great stuff! |
| and I welcome back...! Kekkai Sensen Season 2 & Beyond!!! Oh my! the OP Unison Square Garden, they are really on a roll right now since they also performed the OP2 of Ballroom e Youkoso! and for the ED its nice also that Daoko is also really getting active! Hellsalems is really total Chaos! I wonder if their next villain would be more of a Challenge than S1? 5/5. |

| I missed the craziness.Its good to have this back at last.Don't know why they changed the director though.The OP isn't that great but I really liked the ED!! |
 |
| Best sequel to the most awesome show ever!! Zapp is exciting and hilarious as always. And how I missed Leo's commentary! XD closeureyes said: Amazing episode, this second season gives me the happiness that I don't feeling with the anime for some seasons, I wait for this continuation for a long time and now I can say I'm in love with this saga. Awesome episode. 5/5 Btw do yo have any more gifs of the episode? |
When someone asks me why I like anime, I'd say Just Because. |
| I really love the 1st Season, Had a blast watching it weekly so I'm really happy that 2nd season is here. Looking forward for more random adventures and I really like the setup that Majority of the Group are compose of Grown ups and only 1 of them is a Kid. |
| Oh Double-X ç.ç I need more Chain in my life, i love this girl. |
| The anime series is back and is healthier than ever. Happy for what I have seen, the narrative has not disappointed me and I hope to see Leo's sister soon in action. *_* |
 |
| I was never a real fan of the first season, but considering the new director, I hope I can enjoy this season more. I've gotta say that the first episode went beyond my expectations. I might enjoy this season a lot more. |
  |
| I needed this in my life |
 » Escapism. |
| Oh god that was a perfectly executed first episode! Loved how they just started it all off with relentless action with next to no slowing down. Leo being abducted from the off was hilarious, and that thing on his head was a nasty little bugger. To think that was just the prologue to all the craziness though, genius! Looking forward to seeing more of the teams antics, and anticipating more craziness from the 13 kings. |
HESTIA   APPROVES |
| It was just good and fun ! I really hope the other episodes will be similar. I like the first season but it's was like something missing so I have a lot of expectations for this. |
on 
| That was crazy-good but maybe a little too crazy, I won't enjoy twelve episodes like this. They probably just did it to show the series packs a punch though. |
 |
| Well this was nice and refreshing. I kind of forgot how fun this show is, with it's insane setting and quirky characters. |
| :3 |
| So good to see my boyfriend, Klaus, again! |
 |
| It started with action on full force! Great episode! Poor, Leo, lost his dreamed video game haha |
