Even the ground dragons fall in love with the protagonist in this anime!
So, how is this not just another generic harem? I'm not sure if I missed that in season 1, because I was watching with the premise that we'll get to find out why he was even transported to that world, and how that world exists in the first place. Then, it got fun to see how he'd deal with his Return by Death, and the immediate curiosity around it.
It took them 4 years to release season 2, and I honestly can't remember if my criticisms of this season, are also relevant to the first. How long did we have to wait for season 2 of AoT? It felt like forever, but I believe 5 years, and after those 5 years, my memory was a BIT fuzzy, but I remembered things, and characters. With this anime, I could barely remember anything about any of them. I really enjoyed season 1, so the question I ask myself, is did I become tired of these generic harems, and general making all females wear revealing/sexualised outfits style animes? I think yeah, but this season was also bad in the sense of the story, too.
There was absolutely no progression of the story in the entire season. We still didn't find out anything about why he is there, and where there really is. The whole mystery about his Return by Death dissipated to the point of being really tedious having to watch him scream and be shocked when someone dies, because we know they're not really dead. If you realllllly think about it, take out all his re-runs, and constant screaming and crying, how much did we actually get to watch? It kinda makes me feel as if all things in this anime are inconsequential, because he can always reverse time and undo it all, so nothing that happens, really matters. The only new things we learn each time he dies, is that THEY'VE ALL BEEN BETRAYED BY X PERSON. Oh no wait it was just a misunderstanding. SOMEONE ELSE HAS TURNED OUT TO BE EVIL, oh no, wait they've had a complete personality change and are a good guy again. And on that topic, at first the whole tea party thing was intriguing, but it got very boring, very fast, when they would flip-flop between making the witches evil/good every episode.
Overall Rem was one of the only characters I liked in the first season, even though she joined the harem. This season Ram was one of the better ones, but most characters are completely replaceable, or plain boring like our princess. Oh, and loving the constant damsels in distress btw. Harems, damsels in distress, fake deaths, cleavage everywhere, bad guys that all seem to turn out good/have a sad back story. How is this not a super generic anime?
Also love all those top rated reviews on MAL where they have only watched 4 episodes of the season, and ended up giving them 10's lmao. Nothing says unbiased ratings like people giving 10/10 reviews after only 4 episodes.
