Kamierabi 2nd Season

After the mysterious disappearance of one of its participants, the battle meant to name a successor to God is brutally interrupted, leaving behind a trail of destruction and shaking the world. Twelve years later, while the former contestants in the divine competition struggle to fit in society after they were turned into semi-permanents—beings unable to age—Lall refuses to let go of her brother, who has been forgotten by everyone.

Determined to resurrect her brother—the only one she sees fit to sit on the heavenly throne—Lall steals her his cellphone from a cult run by a past competitor, which accidentally restarts the competition. Helped by her classmate Eko Sasaki, Lall will show no mercy to prevail against her enemies in her efforts to finally see her brother again.

Let's get this out of the way: Yes, the whole series is butt ugly. But, I happen to have a very high tolerance for lousy animation so long as the underlying narrative is any good, and boy, on that front, KamiErabi certainly delivers, and then some.

What I enjoyed most was the show's unpredictability. The premise of it being a death game might as well be a lie, as that notion is pretty much abandoned halfway through the first cour. And yet crucially, the show manages to resolve all of its loose ends very satisfyingly. It's also possibly one of the few cases of a Deus ... Ex Machina being used well. YokoTaro has a knack for combining cringy lighthearted moments and a dark narrative and somehow making those two elements work.

While the show may take some time to get used to, especially if you don't have a high tolerance for shitty animation as I do, it is well worth it in the end. Rarely do you see an anime original fully commit to its themes and resolves itself so satisfyingly in the end with no sequel bait or any baggage. It's not easy to sell the show without spoiling anything, but the show does shake off the "Death Game" aspect relatively early to reveal itself for what it really is, and if you're any familiar with YokoTaro's other works, you'll feel right at home.

8/10

Mixed Feelings

Preliminary (11/12 eps)

(to be clear this not a review or nothing close to that
I writing this to get this anime a least recommend for those who give the animes mention below between 7 and 8 of 10)
For those who saw No Game No Life and Estab-Life: Great Escape and taught to them self those a good to very good animes next each other you have something wrong going in your mind
This second season strongly depend on those people who can watch this kind of animation (Estab-Life: Great Escape=CGI it kind of bad to to watch it but I don't know why I keeping with it)
And ... slow pace (slow cooking) than the other anime.it felt like watching low budget of (No Game No Life) set up in way that after watching 2 episodes from it I found my self hooked before I knew it (first season)
The reason the score is below 7/10 it coming from the people who first episode first season and start shitting on CGI with score,that once you get used to it gets better except the famous berserk (2016) and found out that is getting second season making it below 7 because they can't let go of it
In conclusion, somehow you found out about the first season and like it and you still hesitant to continue, just go for it,it complete the hype (the cliff over from the last episode)

Spiritually another one of Yoko Taro's EoS'd mobages.

Starting from the finale, the last two episodes are all it had to be. If you finished the first season and will jump into the second, you could just not waste your time, lost as you may feel by doing that. By rewriting it properly, about three episodes would be needed to conclude the first season, if this was the goal it was heading to, but for some reason they did 12 more without any content do so.

It's easy to imagine how the script was written as if it were either a VN or the VN segment of ... a mobage, as there's no visual direction. The characters have no movement, the angles and visuals are always still (sometimes literally a slideshow), and they just keep talking and talking exposition. The first season may not have been the best show ever, but it clearly had much more of a vision, as in, the world was alive and so were its characters. Considering the metastory that takes place here, I can't even tell if it wasn't a cry for help from a writer that needs to write a second season after accidentally finding closure on the first one.

If I had to say something good about it, it made me realize how Goro and Sawa carried the first season. Not having them in the cast across so many episodes was a slog, a bore and a torture. Nothing interesting happens, nothing interesting is said. It's also kind of funny to see when the writing took an unexpected turn mid-production, because plot-relevant characters will use generic faceless colorless 3D models used for mobs, or show up as 2D sprites that change like you're on Powerpoint. They didn't plan for the character to be there, so they didn't have a model ready and had to improvise.

I wouldn't recommend this show to anyone, especially to people who liked the first season, because it'll really ruin what was a good experience, flawed as it might have been.
