Anybody else notice Ahmey in the OP? I'd be a little surprised and disappointed if she is suddenly brought back.

Well, the first season's OP showed Jil and Kaaya together holding hands, but that's obviously not what happened is it

Hardly comparable. Also considering JilXKaaya is likely to be the ultimate outcome.

jokes bro. I just think it's funny how the OP was like that and then at the end of the first season the exact opposite happened

Well, I must say that for a GONZO series, Druaga looks like it will have a second half that's actually as good as the first.

The kid bited the Golden Knight, what a funny expression!



I found the Golden Knights chasing the little kid seems to be beary cute.. They seem to be an insult to former heroic Gilgamesh, but at the same time seems to be reflecting on how the King really is, dishonorable..

Correct me if I'm wrong, but Kai is a girl. That or animes now just enjoy putting little boys in dresses.

Didn't they show Kaaya and Neeba at the beginning of the episode? I mean you could be right, but it seems a little far fetched.

No, I'm not talking about that. Sorry for the confusion. I mean the girl clearly is not Kaaya. Why would Kaaya, while climbing with Neeba (or w/e the fuck they're doing up there), suddenly decide to come all the way back down and turn into a little girl just to ask Jil to take her to the top again. really now

I know, which made it all the more surprising when AnimusNathan was right about the misleading OP and JilxFatina paring at the end of the first season (Animus predicted it by ep 4, I was convinced it was going to happen after watching Ep 9).

Great start to the new season. Jil better not reunite with Kaaya midway and become indecisive about which girl to choose. He better stick with Fatina, or I will release the ropers on him. Somehow.

Oh yeah awesome first episode for the second season. Usually I'm a fan of the obvious relationships in anime, but this time I want a Jil x Fatina rather than a Jil x Kaaya.

They found Kai, the Ishtar. I saw from a mile away that the wrestler was Utu. and FatinaxJil is just <3, this is getting interesting.

Great episode! Not as crazy as the first season, but i liked it.

Nice seeing Fatina and Jil together. But you'll see, Fatina will go back to Neeba at the slightest chance.

A few things about 1ep, 2nd Season.

1. I expected Jil to be in funk considering his woman abandoned him. Although I don't think Kaaya did it without guilt or regret as others imply. (just look at her expression at end of S1 - not a happy face).
2. Based on art/looks, always thought Fatina > Kaaya (Kaaya has a big arse, no good). Nice to see Fatina warm up to Jil, but it was obvious she was losing respect for Neeba (after their party member's death & back stab) and gaining respect for Jil (the way he looked out for his party). Not to mention her constant teasing (tsundere?) him in beginning of season 1. Nice to see her warm up.
3. didn't get that it was Utu right away, but figured it out since Fatina didn't say anything and she knows his face.
4. From my understanding, Kai is (as she said) Gilgamesh & Palate's (1st Ishtar Priestess) daughter. Since the obvious resemblance to Kaaya (looks & name), we can assume Kaaya is either Kai's (or spelled Ki?) daughter or descendant (which would make her the grandchild of Gil/Palate). Kai (Ki) is not Kaaya (as she is traveling the Tower of Fantasy with Neeba).
What is confusing is, I thought Kai (ki) was Gil's wife (based on his fight with w/ Druaga, after druaga cursed them). Unless Palate, Kai (Ki), Kaaya and their line of women all heavily look alike (which seems to be and confusing, including their manner of dress).
looks like we have 2 new characters (woman and kid chasing Ki). No sightings of Melt/Coopa or Kelbs lieutenant (forget her name).
A good first ep. Definitely better than previous series.

LOL Utu. that was quite the shocker.

Definitely like Fatina better than Kaaya. Though either is fine the male lead.

Good ep, i still enjoyed it but couldn't compare with ep 12 of last series seeing as i watched it just before ep 1 of this series XD
I prefered this first ep to the last one, but obviously this set up works because we have previous knowledge of characters, plot etc.
Looks intresting although after a quick glane it seems Coopa and Melt might not be 'main' characters anymore :/ hope they are in it quite a bit still...

Great to see the season now even though the main characters aren't enjoying themselves at their best tbh with the previous events from Season 1. I guess what's happening now is that they are trying to forget and move on, especially judging by Fatina's actions.

It's definitely cute to see some Fatina's interactions with Jil this episode. Hell, the wrestling match scene was funny as well with that new little girls added into the mix.

I had a smile on my face when Kaaya was shown to be impaled with the sword. "If you wish to stop it..." Well Jil will stop it of course but he better choose Fatina -___-

This is a fairly solid continuation of the story. That vision that Ki showed Jil looks like it's them much older which makes me wonder if this journey up the mythical tower will be that much tasking. Utu's true face was a big surprise to boot, reminds me of a character from Akame ga Kill.

I'm just waiting for Neeba to betray Kaaya. I know it's bound to happen. Things can never work out when two backstabbing mofos work together.

My preference:
Ki to Jil: If you wish to stop it, take me to the top of the tower.
Jil to Ki: I don't wish to stop it.
Roll the closing credits.
