Story 5/10:
I may have given it a higher praise than it should have gotten, but I think it has indeed improved compared to the previous anime. The story stayed simplistic, there were not too many complications between the new characters and the old ones. The new vampire' (Mukami brothers) feelings for the Sakamaki brother stayed hated, and vice versa. The problem with this anime is there are too many unneeded guys and they are almost all too predictable. Is hard too make the story a 10 if you can very easily predict what comes next. But I still find it better than the first season.
Art 7/10:
I first got attracted by this anime because of its art. They did a good job on the choice of colour for the characters. Their choice of color templates was very good. I especially liked the transparency of the characters hair. The eyes of the vampire were also well-drawn. When the vampires had a sad emotion, the shadow in their eyes would become nearer to the color of their eyes on the color scale (for example: blue and purple). It was the opposite when they are more stable or excited, their eyes would have more contrast (for example: green and red). Yui was the only one that is not very interesting in the artistic aspects. You could probably count with one hand on how many kinds of face she has made. But seeing the last few episodes, I think she still has time to develop if they ever make a third season.
Sounds 6/10:
Fair is the only word for it. They made a lot of effort on the background music. There were a lot of background music with string instruments. There were some that sounded very nice, but there were also times when the notes were not very cooperative. Which made the music chaotic and lousy. So what happens was, I was feeling with the music and the next second wanted to pull out my ear plug and then the music was nice, and then again it went bad. So this went on and on. If you think good music is very important for an anime, I recommend you not to watch this one.
Characters 5/10:
The main reason why I felt obliged to write this review was because of its characters. The characters in the first season was a complete let-down. I had originally completely given up on season two, but wanted to see if there was a slightest possibility that it might be better. And it didn't disappoint me in some ways. The Sakamaki brothers didn't change a bit. I got really fed up with them. But the Mukami brothers were more interesting. They had more emotions than just "I want your blood". The reason might be because they were humans. Human emotions are more complicated than vampire's in this anime. If the characters are too simple like in the first season, you would get tired very soon. Yuki had always been the main problem of this show. She had no will. The Mukami brother encouraged her to choose instead of being a blood donating doll. This was also the main reason why I gave this story a 7 out of 10.
If you have watched the first season and found it's acceptable, I would recommend you to give this a try. I personally liked the last two episodes the best.
