Kage no Jitsuryokusha ni Naritakute! 2nd Season

Enticed by its rumored wealth, Cid Kagenou happily tags along with his sister, Claire, on a trip to the infamous Lawless City. The region is ruled by three monarchs: Yukime, the Spirit Fox; Juggernaut, the Tyrant; and Elisabeth, a dormant progenitor vampire known as the Blood Queen. Hunting Elisabeth down serves as the perfect opportunity for Claire to prove her true mettle. On the other hand, Cid has different objectives—sneaking away from Claire's sight, collecting as much loot as possible, and making Shadow's glorious entrance at the perfect moment.

As Elisabeth's awakening draws near, her subordinate Crimson enacts a treacherous plot, sending the town into a frenzy. Searching for her now-missing brother, Claire finds an unexpected ally in Mary, a vampire hunter, and the pair hurry to the Crimson Tower—the home of the Blood Queen. Meanwhile, Beta and a small team of Shadow Garden recruits also arrive at the Lawless City. As the key players converge on the Crimson Tower, the stage is set for a grand confrontation under the crimson moon.

The anime is very entertaining, we see a variety of girls and a very, very strong protagonist.
It is the second season of how the shadow eminence is going to cause chaos. I really like how they present it and how they develop the characters.
This season we can see spies, trade war, economic strategies all aimed at entertaining the protagonist.
It is very interesting how he loses himself, since he has no rival, those he taught things to no longer need him but he continues in his search to find himself.
At the end of the season a sequel film is found and announced.
The animation ... is very good, the soundtrack accompanies it. The best thing about the anime is the character design, although it seems that they are the typical isekai characters, we see a twist in the development of each one. This anime shows you how to make a very good isekai with few plot twists.
The characters are very endearing, I recommend it, it is very entertaining.

En español:
El anime es muy entretenido, vemos una variedad de chicas y un protagonista muy pero muy fuerte.
Es la segunda temporada de cómo la eminencia de la sombra va a provocando caos. Me gusta mucho como lo plantean y como hace el desarrollo de personajes.
Esta temporada podemos ver espías, guerra comercial, estrategias económicas todas dirigidas para entretener al protagonista.
Es muy interesante como se pierde a él mismo, ya que no tiene rival, a las que les enseño las cosas ya no lo necesitan pero el sigue en su búsqueda de encontrarse a sí mismo.
Al final de la temporada se encuentra y se anuncia una película secuela.
La animación está muy buena, la banda sonora acompaña. Lo mejor del anime es el diseño de personajes, aunque parece que son los típicos personajes de isekais vemos un giro en el desarrollo de cada uno. Este anime te muestra como hacer un isekai muy bueno con pocos giros en la trama.
Los personajes son muy entrañables, lo recomiendo es muy entretenido.

Mixed Feelings

Love the light novel, have enjoyed the manga as well. I felt that unlike the first season, which I thoroughly enjoyed I didn't enjoy the second season so much. This is because my absolute favorite section of Cid's journey was covered in 10 seconds. It left a hollow and unsatisfying feeling in me and made the final ending of the show confusing and hollow. The most important parts of Cid's journey for me have always been those that are not really following the major plot and ludicrous shenanigans are going on. When I read the novel and manga both mediums hadn't reached season 2 finale. ... Whilst I feel the finale has a satisfying ending and could potentially lead to a fantastic season 3, the potential drop in quality of their risky plot decision, mixed with skipping my favorite part of the story left me rather upset at season 2. Whilst I wouldn't say its not worth watching I'd really only suggest watching season 2 if season 3 is good.

Not Recommended

I watched this series on a light recommendation from a brother. The series is a mix of" One Punch Man" meets Sword Art Online only without any likeable characters, reasonable character progression or a story worth watching. It baffles me that it has a mal score above 4.

The story is terrible. I was bored throughout, not caring about any of the characters' stories, and wondering when the series would get good.
The art is adequate. It is the only slightly redeeming part of this anime.
Watching this series is like listening to someone tell you about the dream they had last night.

Skip this series.
