I mean it when I say it. I think everyone should aspire to be like Tohru Honda. She shows complete compassion to her peers and people around her at all times. I've watched Shojos before and haven't really liked them all that much. I was kind of hesitant when my friend told me about it but damn. This is a HUGE eye opener for me.
The story follows directly after the 1st season (not surprisingly) which is about the zodiacs and the crazy shenaniganians that go on in their family!... i should phrase that a little less implying that it's a fun adventure when in reality it's a pretty deep plot involving a psycho maniac head of the house and his crazy obsessiveness over the over family members and how Tohru interacts with them. It is something you need to see to believe.
The art style is pretty good. It isn't attack on titan but you can definitely appreciate the animators and you can tell which character is which. But that shouldn't be a problem since if you're reading this you should be able to tell anyway. :P
The music in my opinion just doesn't live up to the 1st season. It's not bad but I find that it is kind of stock. The OP's literally just have the characters walking. That's it. After seeing what they did with the OP's and ED's in the 1st season I seriously felt that the ones this season were lacking.
Every single character in the show feels like a real person. They are so unique and they have pro's and con's for each one of them....
...except for Honda as she is perfect in every way.
That was a joke. Tohru, while she may seem perfect to some people, she definitely DOES have some irredeemable qualities. She is a very submissive person in the whole series up to now and I am interested in seeing how she changes in the final series. I would hope so at least. I didn't read the manga.
I loved this show and you will too. If you watched the first season and are on the fence on whether you should watch the second or not. Don't think.
Just do it. You will NOT regret it...
Overall 9/10
