| Looks like they went with a final battle route with a boss monster, or at least one that is much more tougher than what the cast has faced so far. It's a lazy move for the finale but I knida get what they went with it. And hey, everyone worked like a team alongside Maple and the others. Pretty much felt like it was playing a game for majority of this season, than a TV anime at times. It was still fun overall though. |
 |
| Great final batle. Overall, a very good season, but I think the first one was more charming and interesting. This season felt a little too repetitive. Still, I liked every single episode and I would love to see a third season. I'll miss Maple and everyone else. |

| this was one heck of a battle filed episode and i cant believe they manage to beat that monster anyways it did say the 8th layer will open so are we getting a third season i cant wait |
 |
| Well there are times when game developers go to far in stopping the players, but in this case they didn't expect that cooperation between guilds which was nice to see. The girls where also working well together to the point that i wonder about their relationship but it was nice to see. The others also seemed to have a fun time. I just hope we will get to see some more of this. |
| The trio of guild groups all band together to anticipate the monster rampage, and most importantly, the 8th Event's final boss battle. With such massive power, the more the players, the better the chances of everyone fighting back and giving the boss no room to breathe. And true indeed, it was a boss fight that pushed everyone to the absolute limit, even Maple herself, who finds herself almost in trouble being out of HP. But this is backed by Sally with the last-minute potion and going back to her roots with using the Shield to Devour the final boss. It is a job well done for everyone, with the high risk giving high rewards...and although this gives the developers more hell to do in overtime, one of them differ to see the players live another day, and compensating overtime with more personnel and work. Overall, a rather average sequel that Season 1 is still the peak of Bofuri, though it'll be just fine if this gets a Season 3 in the future with new characters. |
 |
| i really don't like this op unbeatable shit like this. never played a game in her life and is somehow the best player in the game? lol devs all they gotta do is nerf her abilities by 90% and she won't be op anymore. problem solved. |
 |
| Really liked that cute little sequence at the end of the episode with Maple and Sally! Overall, this season was fine. Not quite as fun and inventive as the first one imo, but still enjoyable! I give a 7/10 to this second season of Bofuri! Hope we get a third one! |
| Well that was a really good finale to bofuri season 2. I didn’t like it as much as season 1, I thought some of the gags got repetitive and I think this season lacked the charm of season 1. But the highlights of the season like today and the big fights from a few weeks ago were really good. Wonder if there’ll be a third season |
 |
| I have to agree, this season wasn't bad but S1 was way better. There was a lot of rushing this time. Well, since they teased new characters we might get S3 eventually. There are just some series that can ride on light novel fame alone, the anime won't necessarily have to be S tier. lol |
| Just a fyi sorry to lets ya'lls know but me and maple are getting married uwu I was lowkey hoping she was Op enough to just win easily and we all Pog lolz Fight seemed a bit clunky tho |
 Behold of my awesomeness~ controversial and/or sensitive topics likely devolve into the same repetitive, derogatory, abusive, and harassing comments can no longer be posted. But my feels. |
| I agree that S2 wasn't quite as fun as S1, but this was an "epic" finale and I have the feeling with S3 things will become a lot more interesting again 🤞🏻 |
One Piece episode 914 & 915 & 1027 were a mistake and 957 brought the salvation - FMmatron |
| The finale was mostly focused around a boss monster to finish off the 8th event, and it most definitely felt like a lazy way to wrap the season up, but it wasn't anything too interesting to me. There also seemed to be some setup towards a potential Season 3 with some new characters, which could be fun to see. Overall, this season of Bofuri has been very average, as the novelty from Season 1 seems to have worn off. It got way too repetitive, as it just seemed like boss fight after boss fight, and each event just felt very rushed. I would love to see some IRL interaction between these characters, that would be way more interesting than what was presented in this season. 5/10. |
| That last guy's plan on beating Maple Tree is probably trying to cause a rift between Maple and her guildmates. That's just my guess since his actions and his words felt like he was hinting at doing something nefarious like that. I hope season 4 gets underway soon lol I wanna see how these new challengers will challenge their way and try to bring down Maple Tree! |
       |
| I love this show, great ending to a very fun season! Am I the only one who can't mark it as completed though? an MAL pop-up saying I can't mark it as done since it's ongoing pops up when I select "Completed". |
 |
| Pretty epic boss fight for the finale. Maple took it out with her iconic Devour. Was a nice season, liked it. Some new characters were shown at the end, will we get s3? Hope so. |
 |
| Well it's over. It was fine I guess. Everyone kinda had a moment to use a cool skill or whatever. I always find myself thinking how nonsensical this skill system is and how it would be impossible to balance any sort of combat encounters in a real mmo and it takes me it of it lol. Nothing really that special about this series tho. They just kinda progress through levels and events with no real tension. The gimmick got old really fast in S1 as the series proved to us it has no intention of creatively making use of a max defense character to solve challenges in interesting ways and just gave Maple as swath of absurdly OP abilities that negate any sort of weakness she may have had. The mediocre animation didn't help. |
| Not many surprises this season but I liked the different teams that formed on the last episodes. |

Bofuri 2 it's over and I want a S3 just yet! I will miss Maple so much! |
| After weeks of waiting I finally got the fan service I needed. A full on Tur... ...tle! blast! Love it. 10/10 |
 To have you, Id give a billion lives A-Chan best girl |
| enjoyable final battle. The way Maple killed that boss is brutal. well, three medals does seem too few for killing something that big. lol some new characters introduced at the end. Possibly hinting at season 3. thanks Maple, Sally, and everyone!! Looking forward to seeing you again. funny at the comments, some wished Maple would add even more to def. xD 10/10 |

| Thought there was one more episode for some reason. It was OK, didn't have the same charm as S1, where it was more of a learning experience for the characters and the viewer themselves. |
| Entertaining final boss fight but as a whole, this season ended up being pretty average. First few episodes felt incredibly rushed, very inconsistent animation here and there and way too repetitive with Maple Tree's members obtaining new skills just to later showcase them for an entire episode. 5/10 |
| It felt really empty to me to be honest, I already forgot most of what happened because it was so average in most cases... and they're (somewhat) teasing a possible S3 at the end but I would not be confident at all |
 |
| That was a rather anticlimactic and quite honestly, boring, finale. There were no stakes involved. Even if everyone died they'd just lose out on a few medals. Big deal. This final battle didn't have the gravity as Maple vs Payne. And the boss being just a bigger version of the other enemies was lame. They had good designs for some of the enemies earlier in the season but this guy looked really generic and plain. Most of the episode was just various characters yelling attack names with no real strategy. I didn't feel for a second there was any risk of them losing. The season got off to a great start but when it shifted to multiple episodes about everyone finding their pets it got boring. The pets really didn't add anything to the series. The eagle with the hat, whatever it's name even was, can't remember, got used like once and even then it wasn't an important scene. It just doubled the cast essentially but none of them have any added personality. The whole pets thing should have been one episode at most. Plus it diluted the uniqueness of Maple and Sally's pets. And let's not even get into how they butchered Syrup's design. The peak was Maple getting her tentacles but after that it fell off pretty quickly. Still a fun show and by no means bad, but not the masterpiece that was season 1. I would also be surprised if this got a season 3. With the delays and other complications I got the impression people were already losing interest. |
| That was a fun finale, but overall this season was just meh. I don't know why, but I just didn't find it as fun as the first one. It got really fun in the last 2-3 episodes tho, so there is that. 6/10 |
| I guess the PVP scenario is more interesting than the PVE that's why it not that great as season 1. I still enjoy it. 8.5/10 |
| Do the same joke every episode and repeat in another season the same thing... Very disappointed with this season, I watched until the end just because I had already started the anime and because I had some faith that the anime could change something in the last part, but I was innocent about it. |

Cross  AngeHey guys check my profile for current airing season anime recommendation (guaranteed best taste) |
| Seems like survival on the last day of the event. Frederica describes the enemy as fake Maple 🤣🤣🤣. Seriously, as someone said, this season is more about bullying the developers. Seems like more new guilds are up, hinting at the next season. I liked that they used the previous season's OST in some of the episodes in this season. |
 |
| Ok finale with the boss pushing everyone to their limits, but I prefer the PvP aspect of NWO instead of this PvE "let's just make the devs suffer" plotline. If a Season 3 were to happen it seems promising with the new rivals teased |
| Satisfying end to a good season cant wait for the next one. |
 |
| I'm glad that we've finally reached the end of season 2 of Bofuri after the delays that it went through. It was pretty satisfying to see everyone working together to take down the massive final boss. Seeing the devs going from being depressed to hyped up by one of their colleague's hopes of better overtime pay was funny. XD Overall, I still have to say that season 1 was better and not only because the story part of it. I'll still give this second season a 7.5/10 (Rounded up to an 8/10), but like with many sequel seasons, it does struggle to hold its own compared to the first season in many aspects. Even though the animation went all out in episodes 1, 5 and 11, we still had to witness how badly it can go wrong, like with the CGI fight back in episode 3. The first season did have its own issues there, but it felt more consistent overall. Plus, the delays that this season had didn't help things either which did effected the enjoyment slightly. Same goes for the pacing, which did feel a little rushed too often at times. Despite those gripes, I still love this series and how comfy and amusing it is to watch. As it aired on the same day that I play badminton on, it still made for a great series to watch before or after my badminton session. =) So that's my overall thoughts of the series. With the new characters and potential rivals appearing at the end of the episode, I really hope that a third season does happen in the future. If it does, then I can hope that Silver Link does a better job with the production schedule next time so that no delays will happen. |
| Given the battle royal feel the dev's went for they had to leave the base eventually. Quite the final boss though in the form of another fake maple. The strat they used against the boss though while simple was pretty effective. The delay sure provided an excellent opportunity for the players to gather and launch a full assault. Maple's final strike was damm entertaining. The secretary though really has quite the determination though. Overall as a finale a pretty enjoyable one that managed to end the series on a high note while leaving enough hints for a s3. Looks like they would have some pretty skilled rivals to face when it does. |
