The first season had way better pacing in my opinion and it felt like way more things were accomplished.
The whole premise of season 2 is blatanly focused on Ryouma and Eliaria getting seperated because the former wants to become an adventurer and travel while the latter has to attend a school far away to improve her knowledge and abilities. Most of the episodes are portrayed as their letters to each other and most of the episodes end with one or the other reading said letters with a slight hint of longing. Both songs are nice on the ears especially the ED "Drum Shiki Tansaki".
It's fine for casual watching/killing time.
