| So yes, I guess we got a complete confirmation that they are ignoring all of the original anime content from the first season. Yeah, it's nice to see everyone again. I LOLed at "Boobzilla." |
| I haven't watched the whole ep but hopefully that Satoshi kid died. Enough with the pokemon anime |
| What are you looking here for |
| Awkward first episode with the retcon of the anime only ending which was to be expected. Some interesting dialogue with Yukio and the demon guy. I nearly forgot how much everyone pissed with their treatment of Rin. Izumo was really cute in this episode!  |
 |
| This was the strongest first episode I've seen so far this season, but based on what happened when Rin released his flames in front of everyone else, the rationale that they're obviously using to justify their treatment of him this episode doesn't really make sense. Sure, I understand that they all associate terrible things with the blue flames, but it's entirely irrational to blame Rin for that when he saved their lives in that fight they kept flashing back to. It's been a long time since the original so I can't remember if this is right, but the flashbacks do not indicate that what Rin did hurt anyone unintentionally either, so their fear and apparent hatred of him is largely unfounded. At least one of them was willing to be rational about it, though. |
| I'm so happy of this first episode, the OSTs are still awesome. Seeing Yukio in action was nice, I'm proud to have one of his figures :). |
| Feels so fresh to watch this with such an improvement in art. As I finished 1st season day before I thought Anime-Exclusive arc won't matter much but this is directly feels like something's not right if someone doesn't know that this season follows Training camp. I am more fan of when original content is followed how it is and I'm happy It is finally going this way :) |
MuzBros said: I dont understand with the first episode...Why Bon and his friends still afraid of Rin eventhough in the first season they all already accepted rin? Can someone explain to me? The first season had an original ending and this new season follows the manga from where it went original which was right after the fight with Amaimon where Rin revealed his abilities to everyone. |
|
| Basically the Impure King's eyes were stolen... everything else was just a recap of what happened in the first season, having the characters literally quote the most meaningful lines they said last season |
 |
| Long ago that I saw season one, hard to remember the point on which this season starts (the relationships of the characters have indeed changed, as far as I remember). Nevertheless, good episode, feels just like S1. |
| Seems like this series has a lot of fans and well i'm not one of them, i think it's just okay plus the "great" ending of the 1st season made the overall impression even worse. Don't remember much (don't think it's that needed), but still feels like that he transition was really weird and some dialogues sounded rather strange. I think i can to cope up with 12 episodes and hope that it gets better to mb change my view about it. |

| Very good first episode! Good amount of content makes the pacing perfect! The animation is crisp and so is the music, so far so good, I guess i still hate almost everyone from Rin's class, it's so unfair towards Rin! If Rin was a bit more "normal" he might have gotten really upset and unleashed his blue flames just by them provoking him like that. The thing i hate most is that this is probably gonna end up like all shounens where they all become great "nakamas" and then they will team up and bla bla bla. Don't get me wrong i like blue exorcist and really enjoyed the first episode but his classmates still bug me (Not everyone), Shiemi and the eyebrow girls are are the the ones i'm ok with. |
 |
| wow...6 years has passed since its first season...loved it the same ! |
 |
| Its kinda frustraiting to see how they dont remember things from first season. Rin's face when Bon told him what happend to his shrine ... HE TOLD HIM ABOUT IT MILLION TIMES IN SEASON 1 come on! |

| That was quite good. I'm glad they ignored that ending. |
 |
| i fucking hate kids man they're stupid |
 |
| This really pisses me off, they discriminate the guy that saved their asses and lumps him together with what his biological father Satan with what he did in the past, how does that make the slightest sense? eyebrow girl's the real mvp! she didnt change at all, you tell em girl, people that says stuffs like "I'll beat Satan" and "We're friends" and shuns you down when the going gets tough are scums! |
  |
| It's been so long since I've read this arc so it will be nice to remember some things. Love the train scene with Izumo, hope to see her arc animated someday |
| Baby, daijobanai... |
juandmarco said: Well they didn't actally skip training scene, they put it in the begining and changed a little cuz Shura didn't tell him about Kioto but received a call about the eye.Before I forget: Zinzoo said: The only thing that they skipped was like a 1,5 page of chapter 16 where Mephisto tells Suguro, Izumo and others in class that they are going to Kioto It was actually 3 pages, plus the last panel of the previous page. They also skip the first 3 pages of chapter 17, where Rin is training with the candles again and then Shura tells him that they're going to Kyoto. |
| Glad to see this show back. Though the popular opinion is that the last half of the 1st season was bad, I enjoyed it a little on my end. Now we're back on track and I'm excited to see everything adapted. Lots of interesting things are going to transpire and I can't wait! 4/5- Lots of tension is building up with Rin and literally every single person. Shura's cleavage is on point. I can't put my finger on it, but Shiemi looks much more mature than she did before and Yukio looks thicker. Other than that, I welcome it's return! |
 |
| I was confused at first (when everyone was scared of Rin and didn't talk to him and that) cause I thought s2 continued from where it ended in s1, (I thought I had missed an episode where they started being scared of him again or something) but since the last half of s1 wasn't canon and kinda sucked, it makes more sense that they're following the manga now., so.. I'm actually excited for this new season |
| Much more enjoyable than the 1st season. I might actually enjoy this. |
 |
| Looks great, was really confused at why they decided to continue after ep 17 instead of 25. Hopefully its good. |
|
| I don't remember much of first season other than general points that were once again pointed out in this episode. Still it's more than enough and I enjoyed this episode a lot. Generally this series is simply good so hurray. Other than Rakugo, this is the best that I seen this season and this time I am taking on the challenge of trying out all first episodes of the whole season. Then again, the season just started so this position will change. |
| I definitely like it - new episode, yeeey... But I was kind of confused, because I watched 1. season, movie and OVA this week and never read manga, sooooo :( But Rin was amazing like always :D |
| The Impure King is terrible... but well if later we get the Illuminati and WhiteSnake arcs I could endure this. They even fucked up and Uverworld OP.... FUCK!!! |
| the art is beautiful and music is awesome and the story follows the manga looks like this is gonna be good |
 |
| It's super weird to watch it, first episode in like 5 years and no reminder of anything what happened, I'm just confused @_@ I didn't remember them not being friends and Shiemi acting like a bitch (but I've never really liked her tbh). Rin is super cute as always <3 But having some flashback to where the previous arc ended would be nice (and not in the middle of the episode). Hopefully this arc is decent, I was pleasently surprised with Kuroshitsuji: Book Of Circus, so maybe this season will also be pretty fun. Also, the opening is okay, but not as amazing as both from the first season :( Shaaaame. |

| holy crap it's been 6 years since i watched Ao No and it's been a few since i read the manga so it was a lot of refreshing my brain on what's going on i know i got close to the end of arc with "Her" which seems to be what they will be covering this season,it's just real nice to see the cast again even if they aren't on best terms atm lol music was on point looking forward to hearing more great BGMs and wouldn't be Ao No without Uverworld |
 |
| This is a real sucky way to start a second season. Retconning the first season like this; just kills the flow of the story. The flashbacks that they do provide doesn't really help any because it's been what six years? This season needed to start with a recap. |
| The episode was fine, I guess. As an anime only, I'm a bit confused about when this arc happens but I guess it should be around the middle of first season? Oh well, episode started like shit but it was still an entertaining episode I guess. |

|
| After all these years, it's finally back! I appreciated the explanation/recap since it's been so long since I watched the first season. No more filler ending I hope. Izumo was really nice to Rin. Not like the other douchebags. |

| Im glad they were kind enough to cater some recaps and flashbacks to those like me who didnt care enough to rewatch or remember anything from season 1 in the last 6 years. Still a lot of fuzzy spots in my memory, but this episode helped get down the main idea. |
~my list
| That opening is really nice (UVERworld awwwyeah) and fits the atmosphere. Or rather, the music's a 10/10, the visuals an 7.5/10. I also loved Izumo in this episode (I think this is where I started loving her in the first place) and it was awesome how she pointed out everyone's hypocrisy, in particular Shiemi and Bon. |

| I liked how there were no formalities, it just went straight into the action. I guess we're just gonna pretend that final portion of the first season never happened then, which is definitely for the best. |
