BUNGO STRAY DOGS SEASON 2 ANIME REVIEW
-ASAGIRI KAFUKA
Overall: 10
Plot: 10
The season 2 series started with the past of Dazai in his Port Mafia times. It was explained why he left the organization on the first place. It was shown how he can be so ruthless and manipulative, as well as empty. Along the story, the scenario was brought back to the present where they need to defeat the other organization who wanted to crush them, the Guild. This season displayed the conflict between the three organization. I mean, it should be four but the other one offers a very minimal distribution. Different gifts has been presented and a new secret is needing to be discovered.
Characters: 10
If I love Dazai on Season1, I can die for him on Season 2. Kidding! His character is so much more interesting in this Season. He showed new role quite expected but totally overwhelming. You know the feeling when a character only show their good side and then finally went in rage? Something like that. What's really amazing on his character is his talent to outsmart the enemy, as well as how almost perfect his plan is. His character is not perfect. He is still the suicidal maniac he's supposed to be. A dangerous man behind his laughing face. The other characters, though supporting, also have different roles that was presented successfully. They always tend to one another and is willing to help. However, I think the season 2 was really focused on Dazai, Kyouka, Atsushi and Akutagawa.
Sound and Animation: 10
I freaking love the expression on every characters face. The best part is when they are angry. It is so satisfying. Apart from Dazai, I like the looks of Chuuya, his Ex-Partner in Port Mafia. The creation of those two characters are awesome. The opening and ending songs are also good, but I really prefer the ending song in Season 1. Really can't get over on that song, really feel the emotion whenever I hear it.
Enjoyment: 10
Double the season, double the enjoyment, double the fun, double the fangirling. I just gave a perfect point review on season one. If only I can give a double perfect here, I would. Hahaha. This season caught me off guard. I never expected that they would present Dazai's past that soon. Well, maybe it was really the best time to do so. It was exciting, and fun. It's really a great watch.
Ending: 10
After finishing this series. I watched the movie and extra episode immediately. This is one of my type of anime. Not too OP, not too cliché, not too dumb. Just perfect. A hint of new enemy is there. He's just around the corner waiting for the right time to attack. And here's our protagonist planning and training those with him, preparing for the war that will come.
