Mahoutsukai no Yome Season 2

Apprentice mage Chise Hatori is invited to enroll at the College, a prestigious learning institution for sorcerers, to examine and look for a way to remove the curses she bears. Despite the reluctance of her groom, Elias Ainsworth, Chise accepts the proposal, as she believes attending the school might help her minimize her self-sacrificing tendencies.

From the get-go, Chise grabs the attention of her classmates and professors alike, who have never seen a mage in action before. However, there is a sinister plot brewing behind the College's back, and the young mage will have to determine who is friend or foe in order to put a stop to it.

I've been a huge fan of this series ever since the first season came out.
The reason for that is because it has compelling themes such as the complexicity of being human and the bonds that they create, but also simply because I love the magical and whimsical theme. Something that... it hurts to say but... lacked..

I see this season as a setup for something big that is about to come, so it feels like it is almost unfair to compare it to the first season. What I liked about this is the new characters, such as Lucy, Zoe and Philomela which definitely stood out ... to me the most.
Chise going out into the world, making new friends was heartwarming, truly!!
But still, I still miss that little something that made the first season such an outworldly experience, it all felt very down to earth, almost flat to me.

Learning more and more about both Chises' growth as a character but also learning more about Elias was also very intruiging. I liked the direction they were going with the relationship between them, like- what kind of bond do they have exactly? Does it have a word? Nonetheless, It was always great to see them interact, and I yearn for more!! I've caught my lonely ass smiling way too much when watching these two...

Mixed Feelings

I loved the first season because it felt magical. However, I felt this second season part 1 was a totally different story with "visiting" characters. I haven't finish reading the manga, so maybe there is a point to the change from a fantasy/romance story to a gakuen/fantasy story. However, the shift was not positive or to my liking. I'm still going to give a try to season 2 part 2, but I have no high hopes based on this one. It is not hat the story is bad, it is just a complete 180 from the original series, like 2 completely separate stories. The first ... season feels more mature audience while this one feels YA. In addition, what's up with the bunch of new characters? A bit overwhelming and all of these side stories take you away from the main one. If this was a book, I would complain about the editing, because it feels all over the place!

Not Recommended

Although I was really looking forward to the season, it was very disappointing. As the title describes, it's about the bride, who only played a miserable supporting role this season.
It's also not much about magic but about sorcery. From the first part to the last it was all about a budding sorceress named Philomela who just complained until the last part of the season, it was hardly bearable so I skipped most of the scenes with her. She was mostly annoying and infuriating, which led to me not liking the entire second season at all. Elias and Chise only play pathetic supporting roles, there was ... even less of Elias than Chise. I would have preferred to continue lingering in the magic. Cartaphilus was also hardly shown. Explanations about Chise's arm and curse were not discussed further, and the audience was also left in the dark about her new abilities, which I found very unfortunate.
