And of course clothes would come off in this fight.

Seems like they squeezed most of the action into this finale after multitude of fillerish episode..sigh. Aki in a bunny outfight though ;o

Seeing the teachers in the past as part of the first Maken-ki in the school was okay. So it is over. The anime was okay, but I wish that there was a story to it.

This was a decent ending overall.
The first season was better imo.

This series was more like an OVA rather than an TV. This season didn't have a story after all. So I didn't enjoy this season as much as the first one.

This last episode seemed to be the most interesting of the whole season, shame it's the last one as i kinda want to know more about the teachers when they were younger

Maken ki season 2 was terrible. I was so excited for this only to be let down. It's nothing but fan service and boobs. I was expecting fights, Takeru to advance in relationships, progress with his element/maken but the only thing interesting about this season was who had the biggest boobs and takeru's glasses coming off. This better get a third season because this was a joke.

So many possibilities wasted with this season. If the second season had been like the bulk of this episode, it would have been a lot better. I enjoyed the dere-dere Haruko episode and the Aki sensei episode was good, but it was too much filler. FMP Fumoffu is about the series that's pulled something like this off correctly.

Nurse, bunny, maid trio - aka the best three outfits you can put a girl in. A++ work. I loved this series just like I loved the first series and I'm keeping it as a 10/10 because I can and because the bear episode deserves it. Ecchi comedy is best comedy.

This episode was pretty good. Sucks that it was the last episode. Wish all the other ones had this time of feel. A little plot is still better than no plot.

I'm upset because they didn't show Celia at all in this season. She didn't have a big role in the last season either but she's still my favorite girl in this series.

Actually MAL lists the 2nd season in her animeography so maybe they did show her and I didn't realize it or forgot about it, but I'm pretty sure she wasn't in this season.

You finally get an episode with an actual meaning to the plot and it's the last episode of the second season. Maken Ki! 2 had to be a season of nothing but fanservice. A fan of the first season but a citric of the second

Nice to see the academy staffs' pasts. That Aki-sensei though~ <3

Overall, I enjoyed the series' fanservice though I much preferred it if they adapted the manga instead with its intense action and story rather than spend time planning different ways of how to make this series highly ecchi with their standalone episodes. I pray for a third season that properly adapts the manga, though that most likely won't happen.

Well the 1st ep that canon from the manga spin-off lol, minori & aki is always my fav characters from maken-ki very fun to watch those two. Overall it was a ok season but overhype after the awsome ova 2 they should have follow the manga instead season 1 was better 7/10.

The blu ray version might bum up a little of my score later......

They managed to make a season worse than the first, which was already horrible.

There was literally nothing interesting in it, even the fan service was annoying.

Easily best episode this season. Gen is a much more interesting MC than "useless punching bag-kun".

I'm going to make a wild guess and say a third season will never happen....

I found this to be better than the first season. It wasn't anything fantastic but it was how the show should be. Episodic and heavy on the ecchi. If you came into this thinking it would be anything but "MC gets put into ridic situations, always gets found out, always gets beat on, and most girls have a thing for him OR boobs surrounding a ridic story" you were stupid. Xebex doing this installment was a huge plus. 7/10. If it ends here, which is prob will, I'm more than fine with it.

It isn't TLR that's for sure.

Agreed, I think a series with Gen as MC would be much better. Anyway, I did enjoy a bit the first season and I so thought it would continue in the same way. I didn't have especially high expectation, but I did manage to be disapointed anyway. Meh, 4/10.

i agree, as much as this ending was garbage, it needs to stop here, no story, random filler season,

what happened to takeru losing control after absorbing the power of the mountain? never mentioned this season, also dont remember his absorb thing being used/mentioned either

what about himegami's brother(?) and that weird mark on takeru that she wanted to kill him for in ep 1 (that had the same design on the mountain btw)

no advance in the character development/relations

should have just ended after s1 imo, dropped the ball hard on this (while i know its mostly a fan service show like dxd, atleast dxd held a plot together an kept going with it for the most part)

I think it was pretty decent. It was much much better than S1, at least they didn't try to make some shitty story.
In the end I guess I wasn't expecting much so it turned out to be more enjoyable

1st season had more plot though I knew from the start I'm watching this not for that.. so 6/10 it might've been 7 if not for that episode with the freaking teddy bear.. damnit I score based on enjoyment so it can't be helped.

So, we have the "adults" with bust size reduced from horribly ginormous to "merely" less-than attractive oversized. I can accept that (in fact, I prefer those designs over the standard by a fair margin), and the fight and story were decent. It needed more episodes like this and preferably some degree of overarching plot than being just a broadcasted OVA. A few good episodes and some nice nods just don't quite hold it together, and the series was not goofy enough to pull off the "totally random."

I'm on the fence here, but I'm going to set it at 5/10.

Go read or watch some hentai if you want plot less suggestive works. Hell there are plenty of hentai that have more plot than this.

The rest of us would like some modicum of plot at least.

Well, that was a pretty okay ending. It's nice to see their high school life. Where is that other guy now, though??
This season didn't have any plot or something. We only saw fanservice, but that's fine with me because fanservice is fucking awesome in my book, though sometimes I find some fanservice annoying.
I'll read the Manga someday to know the story, and of course, boobs ahahaha. Thank you ^^

I'd hope for a 3rd season to compensate for lack of storyline in this season. Though the comedy in this season was great, the Hitler parody episode, the bear, the flashback episode on the last epi, and much more. And the typical "Nipponichi" catch phrase was great. I liked it a lot.

I prefer AIC than Xebec,,,

There's no CamelToe in Xebec..

I'm very dissapointed with the funService,
I love the Fun Service in Season 1, lot of cameltoe.

In Season 2,, just breast only.

I hope in the next season will take over again by AIC...

Why are you giving it such a good score when you clearly didn't like it much?

I thought this show was garbage. The characters are so shallow and the female cast serve only purpose: boobs and ass. There is no character development at all and no plot or story in thsi show. The art is mediocre at best and the sound is just lacking in general. The comedy in this show was pretty funny at times though. I'm not talking about ecchi comedy.

For a shitty show this was only watchable for one reason: BOOBS. It's too bad they decided not to show as much as other shows do (highschool dxd).. But ah well.

I give this a generous 3/10.

So that's how it ends. It ends with a flashback of the days when the principle was a student. That kinda a cool way to end. I'm surprised by the lack of plot this season had not that I expected that much in the first place.

Time for the specials.

I honestly didn't care for the story in the first season so I'm not too peeved about the lack of it in Season 2. In fact I was honestly curious to watch a show that was just pure dumb ecchi fun. I don't feel like serious stories and ecchi mesh well together so I want to see more shows take one road and ride it the whole way.

Unfortunately it was definitely more dumb than it was fun. Despite some surprisingly clever moments (Like the Downfall reference) and a criminally good dub (Even funnier than Season 1) a lot of it was pretty forgettable and generic.

Overall I think I'd put it on par with Season 1 at a 6/10. (P.S. Himegami still best girl even when not voiced by Cassandra Lee Morris)

Wow, a lot of harsh reviews. I actually rather enjoyed it.....in my opinion one does not start watching an ecchi and harem anime expecting to see a masterpiece of storytelling. It's almost like too many people watch these kinds of anime with such expectations and then bitch and moan about how awful they were. For what it was it was very good and gets an 8/10 from me....if you want serious anime with a deep plot that really makes you think then you really are watching anime from the wrong genre in my humble opinion. A good ecchi should combine comedy and fan service and not take itself too seriously and this anime does that.....
