Starting the series the way Shaft did in season 1 was unusual, but a great way of setting up the world and introducing the cast. The planning this time around appears to be driven by "OK, let's fill in the chapters we didn't animate." Like season 1, the episodes are non-chronological, they're all "a day in Yuno's life" for the most part, but the cast is expanded this time around. I've watched a lot of high school-themed shows from this time period where the parents were basically nonexistent-- not this show, because we get to see Yuno's mom (and maybe dad and Nyanta-- it's been a while, I better rewatch).
Like season 1, the humor is side-splitting class, everyone is lovable, in short, this is a great iyashi show, but with lots of bathing scenes where Yuno recaps the day. But this time around the visuals are more consistent, and we get to see the world in greater detail. The "collage" motif is a bit more understated, more limited to props like Yuno's alarm clock.
This is a bit of a "more of the same" from season 1 (mainly because the characterization is drawn from points within Yuno's first year), so the main weakness of season 1 carries over to season 2: Static characters. Still, this nets a strong 8 rating in my book.
