It's of clear, obvious intentionality that novelist-cum-mangaka Ryo Shirodaira's supernatural thriller mystery series is something that we all either love or hate, much aligned for its dialogue-heavy segments. And exactly 3 years later, we get another sequel, which is frankly, more of the same that covers the manga's content right after the long-winded Steel Lady Nanase arc from Volume 7 onwards, diverging into mini-arc cases that take a life on its own.
Most depictingly:
Volume 8's Electric Pinocchio
Volume 9's Guillotine Sanshiro
Volume 10 and 11's Sleeping Murder
Volume 12 and 13's Yuki-onna
Several stand-alone chapters from the boundaries between Volumes 7 to 11
But in essence, everything is the same exact copy-paste rhetoric if you've seen Season 1 exactly 3 years ago, from the characters to the setting, which basically confirms that the "One Eye, One Leg" spirit intervenor Kotoko Iwanaga and her assistant-cum-boyfriend Kuro Sakuragawa are back at it again solving "dragged-out" cases, though this time it's better drawn out because the stories here aren't as awfully long as the Steel Lady Nanase arc (which took up the majority of Season 1).
The only refresh is the OST, though that frankly is forgettable at best, even with Mamoru Miyano's ED "Invincible Love" that sounds like a swag with the obvious product placement of Volume 11's manga cover spliced for an extra visual.
If you still love/hate it, that's up to you. The supernatural mystery mind beckons for a big brain on this show.
