----------------------------------------
Funimation premiered the early episode today.

We got an episode about dealing with a clever thief who apparently stole some important items. That being said, Irene is not a pushover when it comes to a cat and mouse game to evade authorities.

The only ones that could handle this would be Albert so it's no surprise he hired just for the job. If you ask me, this is a fairly interesting start for the second cour.

Funimation has an early special premiere ONLY for Episode 12 (2nd Cour Episode 1):
https://twitter.com/FUNimation/status/1374737875254833160

Welcome back, Sir William James Moriarty and Co. to Part 2 of the anime in its 2nd cour.

The reveal of Mycroft Holmes at the end of the 1st Cour is well worth the wait into this long arc of "A Scandal In British Empire". And seeing both brothers get at each other, the intent is quite the fascination.

It's quite the scandal whe it concerns paperwork that'll devalue the Crown, even down to a photogtaph of a love affair, all leading to the infamous con-woman Adene Idler. But looks like Sherlock didn't heed Mycroft's advice all that well, and he's played under her delicate hands. All the Moriarty brothers are waiting for is the hand of judgement that she'll bring towards Sherlock.

Once you eliminate the impossible, whatever remains, no matter how improbable, must be the truth. - Arthur Conan Doyle

Restart the course of investigations!

Good to have the show back. Irene and Mycroft who were introduced in this episode are interesting and both have cool dynamic with Sherlock. Can't wait to see what happens in this case.

Ayee... it's back with its second season. Funimation brought it earlier. Nice.
Quite an amusing episode to start the 2nd season, I'm definitely looking forward to this show a lot. I've really high expectations from this. Cuz, first season nailed it for me.
Also, I love the Moriarty brothers.

Youkoku no Moriarty bringing us it's second cour. I'm excited for what's to come. Opening is visually stunning!

Irene is an interesting character. motives are unclear to us; however, she has not acted suspiciously after her house burnt down. From the looks of it though the letter given to her will get the story going.

I was just about to go to sleep, and then got curious if something is up and apparently Moriarty is back with the 2nd cour that have finally arrived! The cast is back, this time focusing on Sherlock and the arrival of Irene Adler as she enters Sherlock's world to do something that we still don't know yet.

Miss Hudson vs Irene Adler, hell yeah I was kinda surprised at that. And we also got the official debut of Mycroft Holmes, Sherlock's onii-san and the head investigator of the British Crown, now that's a title worth. This is an interesting start to the 2nd cour, I wonder where they're gonna take this and how far will it amaze us with it's psychological mystery and detective schemes. Let's see where it will go from here.

Oh about the OP/ED, the OP is alright and the ED is Stereo Dive Foundation doing EDM stuff again, although not as powerful as the first one.

As a manga reader, Im so disappointed,, they adapt too fast,, sherly said that the profile he made of irene is changed but why? They cut out their interactions. She saved the girl and smiled on him twice and thats all she did. And I dont know what, but there were something that didnt work in the episode.
At all thats not bad I just expected too much.

1st min and got impressed, and that OP is really good.

That was great start, Sherlock's brother is the director of intelligence service these family is no joke.
Irene using Sherlock to his utmost point, Moriarty reading the situation as always and playing with them.

Great first episode, it's wonderful to have this back!

Loving this nice little relationship b/w Irene Adler & Sherlock Holmes, lol. She's truly quite the enigma, isn't she? Moriaty starting to make his move now, I'm definitely curious what he'll be looking to exploit through this ordeal.

Op and ED are another set of dime!

I absolutely love how the people making this anime, take the source material and make a new retelling out of it, changing bits and pieces there, and just keeping it so compelling and surprising. Kudos to them.

Interesting first episode! Didn't expect Irene Adler to make an appearance already, but I'm already liking her so far. But damn, she really must be a great actress if she could fool Sherlock with that disguise and completely change her voice like that lmao. Several small details in the manga that clarified some things for me were left out, but overall it was still great and left me hyped for the next episode. Looking forward to more Sherlock vs. Moriarty rivalry.

This anime is a piece of art, I can't stop smiling troughout the episode, I'm glad that this isn't a mediocre detective show but the complete opposite. I like that Moriarty is one step further than Sherlock everytime, it's funny and fascinating seeing him in the process of figuring it out and having his rival in the shadows for a bit.

Though I'm excited to see what Moriarty does next and what's inside that letter. Can't wait for the next episode.

That opening was fantastic both visually and song wise. Spring 2021 anime just started but I think I'm confident enough to already consider it to be an opening of the season contender for me.

Ed sounded exactly the same as season 1 but I don't mind.

Irene seems quite interesting and I thought it was cool when she saved the girl

Well, its looks like they really didn't waste such a precious time, and straight them up to another case referenced by Arthur Doyle detective short arc story again. This time its featured the scandal of Bohemia, which already changed into the title of 'the scandal in the british empire' story, i think. Its surely hyping me up to death, ngl.

Holmes's older brother already showed with all of his characteristic. His quote about the lies of the woman surely intriguing. But, mostly he got some hidden meaning too behind that and under his nose, by sending Moriarty's brotherhood into the conflict of his place of work. Well, by knewing William Moriarty nature, ofc its a certain that him will be going to head-to-head again with Sherlock on that Miss Adler protection mission, or something like that, i guess.

Meanwhile, Miss Adler was just beautiful, and full of intrinsic by successfully trapped Holmes under that circumstances. Funny bit, another mastermind character xd. But, its mostly led into something emotional behind that scheme, considering her status background as a Prima Donna, the scandal she did, and that 'little action' with that girl. Interesting to see if Holmes could find out what lies beyond that woman minds, and helped her out of it. Beside, he need to be more careful cause its related to the secret of the country, and his brother works.

What about Moriarty role in this case, and that paper purpose? Lets see next!

The second cour starts with a scandal in Bohemia case. Irene Adler finally makes her appearance and she's a beauty. I already find her character very amusing. Irene vs Hudson catfight was fun.

OP/ED were both nice. Good start to this cour, looking forward to more.

I am little disappointed seeing this much confused Sherlock. There no hind of romance in Sherlock's classic character, yet this anime is trying to establish one which kinda shattered my expectations.

Though good execution overall.

Actually that bothered me quite a bit. I felt it improbable that a detective of Sherlock's calibre who usually notices every absurd little detail would fail to recognise he has a woman sitting closely in front of him. In real life the body shape, facial features, the voice, gestures usually give it away and only women who naturally have masculine, tomboyish features wearing wide, loose clothes can maybe pull it of. But that's not how Irene is portayed here.

Great episode! Moriarty is back baby, that 3 months break honestly went by pretty fucking fast. The OP slaps once again, glad it's the same singer from the first OP. Same with the ED which is very similar to the first ED, it's aight.

Irene Adler is awesome and hot as hell, damn. She's obviously cunning as well, I wonder what her goals are, maybe she just wants to fuck with Sherlock, I mean not fuck fuck but mess with him. Though you never know, could be both lmao. Don't really know much about Sherlock lore, so I don't know yet what she's all about, but I am liking what I'm seeing so far.

What's Moriarty scheming this time. Since this is just an early airing, we probably gotta wait 2 weeks for the next episode, looking forward to it.

I haven't heard that this series came out on 27 instead of 4 April, so far episode 12 (ep 1 2nd part) is pretty well animated but as a manga reader, I kind of sad that some of my favourite scene didn't get animated in this series. But still I paused every second of it to take a deep breath bc I've been like waiting for a years to watch the second part and I'm so happy I could see sherly and liam again T~T

Irene finessed him good, but with her around Sherlock can slowly uncover the truth.

Pretty good start with the introduction of new characters. I'm also interested in the plot revolving the papers. Hope we see Moriarty making a big move next time.

Yeah I definitely thought the same. I don't really want to let it slide with a "well, it's anime" excuse, but it's probably not gonna be addressed and that wasn't the first time this show has come up with weird logic. so just gotta go along with it I guess.
