| Possibly the best way to start of a second season that I have ever seen. Cid is in chuuni heaven right now. |
I missed this dry-ass humour so much. I wish I could make myself forget I ever watched this so I could experience it for the first time all at once when all episodes air. |
 |
| And we're back, didnt feel like a long time to be fair lol. Its hilarious how his sister will go onto the drag of fighting the blood queen and her servants just cause of the fact that Cid wont smile when he sees a ghoul lmao |
DedPanda said: KANLen09 said: I AM ATOMIC is back for Round 2, and we continue the anime with Volume 3 of the LN! The Lawless City is a haven for all things criminal as Cid continues his headway with his sister Claire dragging his ass, stopping at slave trader's place where violence is rampant in such a place like this. And within the shadow of no doubt, Cid has found a saviour where vampires go attacking all around. The Crimson Tower where the Blood Queen lies, that's the primary target while Shadow continues his sortie. And under the bright red moon where the Blood Queen will awaken once more, the fight for survival is ever more the same against the strong players. The Lawless City of prominent characters, and Cid along with Shadow Garden, will pounce on the intermittence once more. Kan-san, how would you rate the adaptation of volumes 1 &2 from season 1? just curious 🤔 been thinking of picking this up as a read. One of the best adaptations ever tbh. |
 |
| Amazing first episode. The lawless city arc is one of my favorites from the light novel, and the anime so far is doing a great job adapting it. |
 |
| "I can smell it." Oh Jesus, that had me falling over. This one brings the heat, so much confidence and swagger. I'm just happy to be here. |
| Kicking off the return with a mostly naked Delta... they sure know what we're after. Cid and his one-track mind already causing trouble. One moment he's telling the Seven Shadows that the red moon holds no significance, and the next he's scouring the city for any excuse to sound the alarm about the blood moon, all because he witnessed Mary pull off that "Eminence" act so flawlessly. It's great to be back. I had a moment of worry, thinking that since Cid said he'd go solo and advised the Seven to stay put, we might not witness as much simping, only encountering new admirers from a fresh cast. But, I should've known that some of them couldn't resist and would end up trailing after him, unable to help themselves. |

| my edgelord is back!!!! peakkkkkkkk |
| Nothing less than pure eminence. The players are all assembled for Cid's show Run, if you value your life The frenzy has begun I literally got a shiver down my spine from it all |

Can’t wait to see Cid go around doing his best Kirito impression again
I liked the part when his 2 friends were about to get laid but then the ghouls show up, comic relief characters never fail🤣

| @Chainsaw_Derp Kirito never acted like pompous mysterious master behind the scene. Shadow is clearly a Lelouch copy just change Zero's helmet with hoodie and they wear the exact same clothes |

There are lots of changes and some things or you can say panala are missing. If anyone really wants to enjoy it read the manga.
| @mrlonely_001 why not go all the way and read the original LN/WN? Plus you can't be sure that it's "missing" since the skipped content could be moved for later episode just like how S1 anime also loves rearranging scenes |

| I love the summary, "this and that happen and well, here we are..." |
 |
| PEAK PEAK PEAK PEAK! Oh man, it's finally here. I loved every single episode of the first season and this arc looks even better with the villians. Cid's still the same guy yapping about his mysterious plan and everyone working for him are no different. They're at the Lawless City, where vampires and ghouls live and it's basically just a shit hole. Cid's moments there were hilarious as hell until the ghouls rampage started. The vampire hunter caught my eyes in a second, same goes for Cid. Nice character design and seems like she's just like him. Can't wait to see more of her. His sister is the same lmao, gotta look out for her. That last part where Shadow arrived was badass between the Fox and the Tyrant. I do hope that the animation stays on the same level as the first season, because this episode was fully speedlines with some frames mixed together. Kinda disliked that, but the soundtrack, direction and the voice acting were on point. |
   “You yourself have to change first, or nothing will change for you!” ' |
| Actually Cid is a big troll in this world xD! |

read the manga and then tell me.
| @mrlonely_001 I followed Kagejitsu since web novel era when it was I am Taepodong before it got changed into I am atomic. So yes I already read the manga and it also skipped a lot of scene like when Shadow spiderman-ning his way into the vampire tower. Plus the manga also make several scene too jokey, and thankfully the anime did it better. For example in this episode: the confrontation between Quinton and Goldy against White Demon |

| Holy shit what a masterpiece of a first episode. I forgot how funny this show was I fucking died at Cid going around repeating the new cool words he heard lmao |
 |
| 2nd season of "shortest 20 mins this week" is finally here. What's up with Delta scene at the beginning? I didn't see her at that meeting too. I hope to see her more. As funny as Cid's sister is, I hope she doesn't get too many action scenes. For those I'd rather spend screen time on Cid. I wonder who is the kid that got caught by vampires? |
Literally the first ten seconds and we already can see beautiful feet. We gonna eat good this season. |
 |
| Oh, this is going to be epic. Insane first episode. |
| Fkn sick. Glad to be back!! Sad this season is only 12 eps 😭 but oh well! |
