If you enjoyed New Game Season 1, Season 2 will provide you even more satisfaction. The simplicity of the first season is absent, but it's not a bad thing. Season 2 builds off of the first season. Where the first season introduced us all to our lovable female cast, the second builds off of the established relationships and and strengthens them throughout the series. This is done through the diverse set of interactions of characters. For example, Kou Is seen briefly chatting with Nene, Hifumi desperately attempting to comfort the newcoming Momeeji by bringing up relevant topics, Hazuki admiring Hifumi, and a bunch of other small interactions that help shed light on the characters and what they think of the rest of their co-workers. While the first season focused on sub-plots for each episode, this season focuses on the small, but key interactions throughout it's cast which includes newcomers Narumi and Momeeji. What New Game season 2 does best is show just how crucial the chemistry of the company's employees is. It really does a great job of helping the viewer see the characters as more than just "cute anime girls" and exposes the character's unique personalities. No two characters are the same, and they show that through the use of it's different scenarios and situations that characters end up in based on who they are with. To summarize it all, New Game season 2 does the best it can to establish characters as more than a stereotype, people who are just like us, with vastly different personalities, hobbies and interests.
