Even though the first season of Maken-Ki was your average harem/ecchi show that contained many common tropes, I still enjoyed my time with it and I was at the very least interested in the plot a bit. While not original, I was curious about where the second season was headed. Unfortunately, the second season of Maken-Ki is a disappointment and a downgrade almost across all boards.
If you were curious about where the story was going to go beyond the first season, keep your expectations to the lowest point because there is essentially zero plot/narrative throughout. No arc, no continuation of the overarching story, no further
...
character development, none. The entirety of the second season is all self-contained, low-stakes, big-boob-filled episodes that put way more emphasis on ecchi than action. Honestly, you could skip the first season and watch the second one right away with no context. There's also a lot more fanservice in this season compared to the first. The fanservice isn't bad and contains boobs, boobs, boobs, boobs, surprisingly boobs, catgirls, and even bigger boobs. While this season's episodes aren't inherently bad and weren't completely unenjoyable (for some episodes), the sudden change in direction for the show was a whole 180 for me and ultimately left me slightly frustrated that they chose this.
If you're looking for an anime show that is just pure fanservice with guaranteed boob showing in every episode and nothing else then this is the show for you.
