The second season was overall weaker than the first season, due to the lesser stakes and less LLENN focus however their decision to focus on minor characters within the GGO world had mixed results. On the one hand, if more seasons are adapted, every minor team now has some characterization, on the other hand, a lot of the first 8 episodes of this seasons were sacrificed to them and they were the weakest. The unfortunate part is given the last episode, they definitely could have done effective minor character focus without wasting much screen time so it was a matter of execution where some of it was done good, some of it was done bad.
Any episode with a LLENN focus was however really good. The action was sharper and her gaming is fun attitude shines in contrast to crazy Pitohui though LLENN in her own way is crazy.
The season of GGO is worth watching with lesser expectations with the first. I appreciate the attempt different direction it took to not make GGO the LFPM show but I do fault its execution.
