Here we go again with a fresh season. New challenges are waiting for Tonbo.

Well, this was a recap episode, so the new story will start next week.

Loved the new OP there really adds to the feel of the chill nature of the show itself. Very different to the insanity of Birdie Wing as now Tonbo is on her quest to play with Tsubura again and discover the new world that's coming to her.

Its like Tsubura is the Amawashi Aoi to Tonbo that would make her leave the island.

Starting with a recap when season 1 was 6 months ago seems weird. Oh well. Here's to next to week

It's been a long time since I've watched a new season that begins with a full recap episode at ep 1.

Bit disappointed we started off with a recap episode was hoping we would get straight to it.

Tonbo's return to Kagoshima...would have to wait until next week, for this premiere episode for the next season is pretty much Season 1's recap in a nutshell. That was just only 6 months ago...

Regardless, it's an easy skip for something that still remains in our minds the past 6 months.

But in regards, to the new follow-ups with Sacra e sole and Tokyo Groove Jyushi, they're OK theme songs, Season 1 is still better.

Get excited that Tonbo is back. Watch 3 minutes, and realize is a .5 episode than a 1 episode. Proceed to curse the production staff.
If they didn't wanted to do another season just say so.

Recap of the first season of the series, which was very good! Why not beginning the second season developing the story?

Just a recap episode but whatever works I guess.
Will jut have to look forward to next episode when the season begins proper.

I have ADD, ADHD & AUTISM, but this won't stop me. Let's keep having fun together.

I wish they called it Ep 0 instead of 1. They hyped me up so much, that I was genuinely distraught to have to skip most of the first episode. Such a bait and switch. Fool me once, Tonbo, but no more of this, OK?

I'm disappointed that it was a recap but when it starts, I can't wait to see how Tonbo develops.

Bit annoying to have a recap episode and it hasn't even been half a year since season 1. Oh well. Also, why the hell are you grading this based off a recap episode?

Completely unnecessary recap. Glad I waited to start this series until episode 2 came out. Otherwise, I would have been super disappointed in this.
