The story continues where it was left out, at first everything seems to be going well for the main characters, but trouble strikes and at that point, I must say I was immediately hooked.
The way events were portrayed really provoked emotions into me. When the bad guys started wreaking havoc, I was really overcome with negative emotions like frustration, anger, anxiety.
It was like 02:00 in the morning when I was watching it and the event got me so invested that I ended up watching it until 04:00 in the morning and after that could not fall asleep for another hour due to excitement.
All the baddies were then punished in a very satisfying way.
Of course, it wasn't all amazing, there was a lot of plot armor, so stuff were kind of predictable in a way that you can always tell who will win a fight, but also there were some shocking twists that really added to the overall tension.
It's a shame it was only 12 episodes when the 1st season was 24 episodes. I'm conflicted whether I should start reading the manga or wait for a new season to appear. In away I can relate this anime to Overlord with "The Good Bad Guys" trope where the protagonists appear evil or are regarded as such in the world, but they are actually good at least to the point of making sure their interests come into fruition without intentionally trying to harm any other party in the process and if provoked will respond not just in kind, but thrice as hard.
Overall, I recommend it to people who watched the 1st season and are wondering whether they should watch this one as well, if you haven't seen the first one, know that the 1st season was really great and this 2nd season was even better, totally worth the watch if you're into this kind of anime.
