Yay, it's back.

The OP song was okay I guess. A lot of funny scenes in the song. The episode had funny moments especially with Cthuko and her little thoughts :p. Oh and I see some anime references in that store. Oreshura..

The duel was kinda funny to watch I guess; loved Nyaruko's many poses though :p. ED song was kinda catchy as well imo.

Yup! I remember the intro to that show fondly from too much Nick at Nite as a kid.

A more recent Hollywood reference was the MIB memory eraser with Cthuko.


The device does resemble a phallus. lol

- The opening ain't as good as the first one, but it still rocks!
- No real difference from the first season, which is perfect!
- Hasuta is still my favorite - So cute!!!

They knew it's impossible to surpass perfection, so they included the original OP as well! The new one is pretty good too though.

SO. MANY. REFERENCES.

Oh, by the way, this guy that did blogposts containing explanations of all the references for the previous seasons is doing it again. http://nyaruref.blogspot.com/

Not that I mind though. And I totally missed the lucky star reference ORZ

The oreshura one was kinda in your face, couldn't be missed. As were the AKB and MiB references.

And lets not forget


nice cosplay there
I want Rambo in a mecha-suit with a laser-chainsaw gun that fires nuclear warheads, fighting the love-child of Predator, Alien, a group of Bangladeshi terrorists, and Satan. (Actually that would be a pretty sick show) - StopDropAndBowl

Its back and they kept all goodness of previous season.
Awesome.

First few minutes explained why our MC doesn't want to be lovey-dovey with walking abomination that may drive you insane :D so that mater I think we have cleared and no further complain will be given ;)

Nice set of references, bit from Mythos, of course anime (ok I think I saw Azumanga but I'm not sure if it was this, also K-On!).

Also waiting for Norio Wakamoto's cover of the OP - his version of S1 was adorable.

The endless debate between fans and haters. At one point, after spending a lot of time on MAL, you just realize it's totally pointless.

The opening and ending were okay for the second season.

I loved the part where Nyarko and others edit the video of Nyarko and Mahiro marrying each other part.

Mahiro is still cruel as usual, still worst MC ever. He needs to be nicer to her even though she's a ederich abomination. I did like how Nyaruko accidentally sent Mahiro outside the girls' locker room through the wall.

OP is very good with excellent choreography from the characters as well as the karaoke. ED is sexy.

1st season was mildly entertaining with its parodies. Hope it doesn't bog itself too much near the end with the romance or at least handles it better. It was such a chore to sit through in the last time.

Nyarko's still fun as moe Cthulu :P

Cause he knows what she really is. She'll have to work REALLY REALLY hard to convince him that she won't some night accidentally eat him.

I do think eventually he'll warm up to her. It will just take a lot of work on her part.

I don't think that's the actual reason why he resist her approaches. I think is because he doesn't trust that her feelings are real, and he mentioned that in the first season. He seens to be quite distrustful of other people as he also didn't believe when Kurei approach him in one the episodes in the first season (Althought, she may have actually been joking because of the situation, but I think she really mean it).

That was one heck of references.

Did someone already mentioned about the AKB48 thing?



I swear I know the third poster. The one with the red dressed girl. I can't remember it, noooo.

I am so sad that they are advertising A-1 pictures. They could have done another studio...

I was just waiting for that too happen, like the title isn't a reference itself. I'm now waiting for a Kamen Rider W-like transformation between Kuuko and Nyarko.



Pretty much standard Nyaruko quality. As long as they keep up with Kamen Rider and mecha references, I'll watch.
