One of my problematic fave shounen is back with a sequel and honestly? I liked it. Tonally it fit with the previous series. The characters were easy to root for including Hana, who might annoy some viewers. It balanced darkness and comedy well. However, there were still the detriments from the original series to contend with like how it handles other cultures and underage relationships. The speed of the narrative also seemed a bit too fast in places and when the thirteenth episode finished, it felt like it wasn't the right stopping point for a first season and maybe a 24 - 26 episode first season might have brought us to a better stopping point. That said, I appreciated that it didn't do a Boruto where you get hundreds of episodes of filler. I also like that the main plot is engaging and has me intrigued and willing to watch more.

If you liked the original series and you like sequels that align more with Dragon Ball Super, which captures the tone and theme of the original while transforming itself into its own thing, then I think you'll also like this anime. If you had qualms with the original story or don't like it when the main character shouts ever so often, then you might want to skip this.
