Mixed Feelings
Preliminary (4/13 eps)
Hand Shakers is back and majority of the 3 people who liked the original season all seem to be hyped. As for me, this show doesn't annoy me and I have mainly used it as a sleep medicine because it's pretty chill.

GoHands has surpassed itself with this level of art and animation. As far as I am concerned, their unique style is fresh and pretty to look at. Art in its original meaning. The character design is awful as ever of course. The other side of the production, the sounds, are making the series quite soothing to watch if being honest. The score is ridiculously relaxing, music is practically ever-present and even the DJ stuff is also tolerable. Overall the audiovisual presentation is rather soul-cleansing experience.

The story just kinda is there. Yukiya is DJ-ing his way to fame and also something about granting a wish because the main storyline is like fate/zero apparently. Holding hands with girls is also there and we meet other handshakers occasionally just so the slice of life stuff doesn't get too much ahead of the flying fishes. The dialogue is pretty stupid tho if taken seriously and could as well not exist because it's not like this series and its story needs to be explained. Pretty sure no one cares.

The way I see it is Hand Shakers and W'z both are like Mars of Destruction: popular meme to hate while none actually did anything that could be said to be the best or worst anything. It's just average.
