It is great how within a year of season 1 that season 2 just improves so much more than I could imagine. This is if I am totally honest my favourite Mecha show. It feels real with the struggles and emotions and relationships. It is dark and space often is shown as much brighter but not here they show how it is just vast and empty generally. Sidonia itself not having anything like a hyperdrive makes it feel more tense with how the journey must go. The effects are shown on military actions on the civilian population like when they use the thrusters.
The art carries over and improves. It is a much more intense season and should be recognised for that.
The OST for this is spectacular. CD bought absolutely.
Characters are newly introduced and we get some great expansions on existing characters. The romance side of things develop well towards conflict between the girls but it doesn't take up a lot of time thankfully in this show.
It must be mentioned that the best girl is in the first part of this and it is the accommodation clerk who is awesome. Absolute gem.
The season was greatly enjoyable, the action, the comedic scenes, the romance, the general activities of people doing things. I even love the halfway pictures showing sights of Sidonia.
I would absolutely recommend this series to people. Also for the record, the identical group of girls are great but Shizuka Hoshijiro is the best girl.
