Well the show is back..they reintroduced most of the main characters without much recap. Things seems lot more normal now too.

Azuma's sister reminds me of Azuma himself, almost like a mirror image of him. Kinda nice to see the Buranki back again too. Well I think this was a decent set up episode for rest of the season, hope it will be a fun watch for rest of the way.

And it's a new enemy team or maybe Rival with self-gratification Azuma's sister as part of it And Azuma's team got introduced to Kaouruko's "teacher" or maybe master?. Whoever he is, he surely act pretty creepy.

All the main characters are back and we finally see A-chan's sister. At first I found her annoying to be honest. xD

Pretty good starting episode actually. Gets us right into the current conflict well and the comedy is pretty good.

Hope I'll like this season more than the last one, which I had rather mixed feelings about. (Well, its only a 6 on my MAL because of the rather rushed ending, but it had other problems in terms of some of its characters (such as the leader of the Americans or the incest twins) being rather annoying)

Im so glad this show is back. Missed it since the first season. This episode had some hilarious comedy. And finally a new team was introduced that i like. The Russians and Americans pissed me off but the team from Taiwan is pretty nice. Idk if he ed song played at the end will be the op for the rest of the season or the ed but i like it. Cant wait to see how this series goes. Definitely underrated
Grimgar season 2 please!!!!

Kaoruko is a riot. lol I can't wait until she sees Azuma just so I can see her reaction. Wow, I wouldn't want to be Ryuuki's limbs either. He can leave.
I so want to learn more about the new characters, they all seem interesting.

Not a bad start actually. Kaoruko is every bit as cynical as she says she isn't. Makes me wonder just what she had to go through, since it sounded like it was a lot worse for Azuma (at least she was with their dad, apparently Azuma was lost and had to be found).
Cannot wait to see the fam together. Wonder where their dad went.

I must say that this season seems to be better than the last. As the first I loved the design of the new characters and am eager to see its evolution throughout the season.

Actually it was the other way around. At first all 3 lived together, and then her dad decided to train Azuma and so left her in Taiwan while he traveled with his son all over the world. Basically she has deep-seated anger for both her parents who effectively "abandoned" her on her own. And probably some jealousy against her brother who was with her father longer and inherited her mother's heart.

I was afraid she was going to be really annoying based on her behavior in the first episode of S1, but she seems like a fun character.

First, Kaoruko seems to be a nice girl but the outside of a brat isn't great. The way the questions about the father/daughter whereabouts were solved was shocking, I hope there is more to learn.
I suppose the funny bits were here to make a smoother reentry in the series atmosphere, but I hope we won't have to sit through several episodes before it reelevates the level to what we had right befor ethe mid-finale.

3/5


@samesdday Since this is not an actual second season but rather the second half of a full length series stopped in the middle, we should not complain about it. It was developed as a 24 eps series.

@Memor Someone named "Memor" asking for memory help? It was announced as full-length, and we usually don't like to see a recap episode in the middle of a 24-26 eps show, so it was a relief for me.

lol, i kinda prefer the first season's atmosphere. probably because of Kazuma or maybe because of how they made the story/plot. it kinda looks cool and entertaining. but this one, this whole episode, just gonna be honest, it was full of cliche in my perspective. and i feel like they were trying to make an explosive first episode but imo, they failed. that's not who to make an explosive first episode imo. Re:zero first episode or erased first episode is the best example for that. the ending song was kinda decent too imo. not really that great and not that bad too. just decent. well, let's just see what will happen.

although, i have a feeling that the story will be about bubuki from asia will have a war with bubuki from europe. and if that's the case, i'm looking foward to it and i can't wait to see it. i hope the soundtrack will be awsome like the first season too.

looking foward to the next episode.

The "first half" was a waste of airing time, and since "it was developed as a 24 eps series", this doubles the loss.

Yeah, lets be thankful

Oh shit, I thought he looked familiar! That's gotta be a reference, it's too spot on.

Good first episode, heavy on the comedy but it was good comedy still. I imagine things will crank up in intensity as last season did. Really looking forward to this!

@samesdday I can say that about any TV fiction with no artistic value or educative purpose, no matter what they are (live action/animation, TV specials/series). A long time ago, people were saying that about novels too.
More seriously, this show's mission is to be a demonstration for the studio.

And I never intended to claim that we should be happy it exists.

Im glad to have this back as i really enjoyed the first season, this episode had a lot more comedy than remember the first season, but it did start turning more serious near the end
I really like all the new characters so far, besides that one dick at the end

The sound effects are still crap.
And the cgi, along with the characters motions are making my eyes bleed.

Well at least it's consistent.

I have to say this episode was better than I thought it would be.
I kept waiting on A-chan to meet up with his sister in the first half, I wondered what it would be like. Glad to see that's about to happen, animation looks really good too.

I almost forgot this started till I scrolled through CR this morning. Another series I'll be looking forward to watching this season.

Oh cool, seeing Taiwan in anime! Looks pretty accurate tbh, lol. They even got a Mandarin speaker for the restaurant lady.

As for the episode itself...well, Kaoruko is as annoying as I expected her to be, and the comedy still seems rather forced most of the time. And ofc, we can't have Bubuki Buranki without rude jerkfaces. We've already seen enough in the first season, don't really need a new one. Especially with the Russian one at the end of the episode. Yeah, my curiosity regarding how the series will end is not enough for me to get over the huge cast of annoying characters with no depth.

She looks Indian, & other new limbs look Asian but can't tell which country, some nice new character designs with funky weapons as usual. Btw, she's having almond tofu topped with goji berry.
Lots of detailed tourist view of Taiwan. It's nice & rare for anime to show other cultures in detail (besides Japan & generic fantasy European town). The nightmarket shown is just outside Taipei, in Xinbei city.

Comedy was good. They improved more natural/exaggerated mouths by redrawing 2d over the cg, & better posing.
Kaoruko's as polar opposite of A chan as S1 made us believe. Can't quite recall s1 details, thought she's supposed to be a rival or villain, but here she's... just jealous of A chan?

Was hesitant to watch this after a mediocre s1, but Global standards is a good way to start. Could even be a great season, if Azuma never makes it off the plane.
