The OP and ED are good but the first season hyped more. Visually the ED wins by having the all units DJs.

Mermaid live doing photoshoots.

Rinku seashells thing is very much alive.

Looking at the preview, looks like will be Lyrical Lily around with other units. Which is cool.

New VAs for Rei and Ibuki. Well, life is life.

Finally! I'm so happy to see these girls again. :)

Lyrical Lily getting more screen time is nice. Also, I like this town revitalization event.

All the Dj units are helping Lyrical Lily run an event. The music is peak as always. Can't wait to see more especially RONDO and Lyrical Lil.

Seems like Lyrical Lily is going to be the main group of this season instead of Happy Around. That's very interesting to see.
The town revitalization project with Lyrical Lily, Happy Around, Photon Maiden, Peaky P-key, Rondo, and Merm4id altogether is super interesting.

i was hoping this was gonna be centered on LiryLily to avoid the travesty that Bang Dream S2 was from happening again, but now im worried

same mistake from Bang Dream from S1 to S2, having the girls completely from HappyAra be already friends with the rest of the units (i know why this happens in both BD and D4DJ, since season one of both if basically episode 0 from their stories) PS: i know Double Mix exists but same mistake repeats there

plus the whole one month per episode thing (since episode 2 is called "Feb. xxxxx") is awful, were going to get 20 minutes of what happens in one entire month, FOR 6 UNITS!


the more i think about, the more i worry... i really dont get their aim here


but well, ill keep watching anyways, i love the franchise and its always a pleasure to hear Oyu-chan

Yes, from the preview, looks like Rondo's up next.
If usual 13 episodes, we can see each unit perform twice!
I think Lord Bushiroad wanted to make it like to feature all 6 units, and find a plot device such that we get a performance in every episode, would not see it that hard to plot out another competition? Then again, it was hard to watch Photon Maiden lose like they did lol.

A premium streamng service in Japan got this early, so Crunchyroll is also following suit.

Ok
I need some help.
i watched d4dj first season and met happy around, peaky p-key and photon maiden but the others... kinda appeared from nothing?
Did i have to watch another anime or play the game to know the other groups or what? idk.
it kinda bothers me since the description just says 'second season of d4dj' but in reality there is big gap of context that a viewer like me is missing :c
Now, the chapter aside from what I said its pretty straightforward. animation is very good and music is top notch. my only complaint would be that some VA sound very amateur.

Two out of 3 new units appear in the OVA that aired in Summer (and is available now on CR) but this season does reerence some game events. Just brush it off and watch, it is not a big deal.

The Djs are back and it's good that this time all the units of the game are back, well, almost all of them, the new ones that were recently announced are missing but the original ones are also great to have them all animated, let's see how these events will turn out.

Oh so it's not focused on the main group anymore but more like a huge events with all the groups, it seems interesting this way and especially refreshing after the previous season formula

What a letdown, they did the same with the S2 of Bandori, out of nowhere every band is here and they know each other, 0 presentation for the new characters, I know this is from a game but some of us just don't have time to play them and prefer to just watch adaptations. The 1st season was a masterpiece in introducing the characters.

The Lily girls gave me cringe. Rondo and Merm4id have their own episode, Double Mix, but that was the same, 0 introduction. What was the point on changing Happy Around as the main group? I know they will be important here too, maybe even more important than the other groups aside the Lily girls, but please just let Rinku's dumb squad carry this again!!!

Btw I did try the game when it released globally for about a month (so I do know the new girls a little bit) and I didn't liked it, even being a rhythm game player I think it sucks.
Sorry if my english is bad (γ£Λ˜β–½Λ˜)っ~~~
Btw, cry about it.

But will the full premiere also be on their YouTube channel? I doubt it a little as they only showed the special on TV.

Because these units were not in the first season. So, they decided to separate them into other seasons or OVAs.

Bushi and the audience love them, so why not? Plus, they have quite a different dynamic, like Haruna's fangirl crush on Miyu or the pranks of those two little devils.

In that case, the first season had a controversial acceptance and subsequently Bushi changed the approach a lot, so that further it was assumed that you already know the general information about the girls.

Its made for the fans. But with me being new....and what about new fans? What about new fans being aware of the franchise from now and beyond? I would have liked a first few episodes for an origin story, but I've been slapped to do my own research about the 'new' inclusions for S2. Ah well, I' like the characters enough to read up on the wiki. Whatever. Docking a few points for that. Ultimately this will be the difference from being a lower half 7 to being an upper half 7-lowish 8 show.
Its a mixed multimedia project after all. Not just an anime only project, was what they said, so knowledge of playing the game for background deets expected.

FINALLY!!!
The 2nd season of D4DJ has been released!
The main characters will be the ones from Lyrical Lily, or maybe all of them xd
I quite loved the first episode. They are going to make an event to bring more people to the region, it will be interesting.
One show per month. January(month in which we are right now xd): Peaky P-Key's turn, Song: Overwhelm, it was really good.
Let's see how the next shows will be.
Good chapter.
The opening is good and the ending is VERY GREAT!!!! I really liked the ending. Also, all the DJs appear dancing AHHHHHH <3!!!!

Here, many images xd

Why they changing the main band like that, it's kinda a let down for me they suddenly just replace happy ara with magically appearing band form no where, no explanation and no back story for anime watcher about the band really confusing,just like bang dream but with a different characters only, feel disappointed

@elgatosaika
I tend to generalize these franchises, but, BanG Dream and D4DJ is not idol.
I don't know what's wrong about their school idol, but it's not too bad, make sure you watch the rival franchise Idolm@ster as well.
