Bokusatsu Tenshi Dokuro-chan 2

Bokusatsu Tenshi Dokuro-chan 2 is, compared to its direct predecessor a little bit weaker, overall. The great phasing who characterized its first season is all but gone and some of its gig don't feel as funny this time around. Still, the fact that this IP belongs to the Dokuro-chan franchise means that you still get memorable character, funny and ridiculous situations and an overall good experience for those who enjoy absurdist comedy, such as myself.

As this point of the review, you might have gotten a wrong idea about this series. It's not necessary bad (it is not) hence the great score I assigned to it. ... It is just that, compared to the first season, it isn't as absurdly memorable as that one was. A bit of a letdown, if you ask me.

It does, however, do a good use of a resource that the first series let down in the first place: music. Some might strange giving so much important to an artistic element such as that one in a show like this but I digress. It's intro, a remake of that of the first season is catchy, well made, and superior overall to its predecessor. This anime also has to be one of the only ones that utilizes classical music for its backround, as in the first chapter of the season utilizes very smartly Mozart's "Rondo Alla Turca" for one of its scenes. Again, some might look at these finer details as insignificant or even "weird" to put so much attention above, but as people say, "the devil is in the detail", and this anime deserves praise for that.

Speaking of details, this series is full of them. Be it from countless references to the first season of little tads of worldbuilding such as Sakura's notebook being now permanently stained with (presumably) his own blood from how many times Dokuro-chan has killed him. Again, maybe some inconsequential details to put my attention upon, but they certainly give this anime more character and made the experience of watching it more enjoyable.

Overall, Bokusatsu Tenshi Dokuro-chan 2 might be a bit of a letdown for its first season, but it isn't a bad anime, far from it. If you enjoyed Dokuro-chan First Season then you no doubt will also the second iteration of this series. Give it a chance, you will enjoy it (especially if you aren't as picky as me when it comes to some of these aspects, lol).

Story
Not what one would expect having seen the first season. No, not in the good way. For starters the first season ended with a female character having a strong opinion of an another main character's position in life but when the first episode begins of the second season her opinion has done complete 180 change. What happened? Was there supposed to be a episode or special in between? Also, unlike season 1 season 2 has no plot basis it is just a day in and day out routine. Also, as for the underlining factor that the main character was going to contribute ... to in the alleged future was ignored throughout the second season. As for the ending it works for a comical stand. Just don't expect any award for a wonderful ending filled with emotion and strength or something high magnitude.

Art
The same as season one. The characters are drawn nicely. One thing i can't help but wonder was the censorship. It was unclear to me if there was meant to be a English dubbed uncensored release or not.

Enjoyment
While the plot is dry you will still get your dose of laughs like you did in season one. Maybe even more depending on you.

Wow, this wasn't good. It felt so boring. Too much weirdness for me. Bro is going way too crazy over them. Not enough blood like the first. She doesn't hit him as much as she did before. The last episode I was just super bored and wanted it to end. Over all I don't recommend this season. I am glad I watched it but it was just so meh. I know this show has a lot of fanservice but I liked the first season because at least it made me laugh at times. This one, not really at all. The intro is so catchy still. ... But the characters felt even more lame and but plain in this one. Couldn't care.
