It's great to have this show back, and right off the bat we're introduced to Sherlock's brother and Irene Adler. It'll be interesting to see her contribution to the story, especially since even Sherlock can't seem to figure her out. Your brother warned you, Sherlock, about the difficulty of seeing through the lies of women.
People on MAL refuse to actually enjoy watching anime.

Your taste in anime isn't a personality trait.

MAL is literally just anime Twitter as its own website lol.

When's the uncensored version? The steam is too powerful.

Nice to have this one back, but it's increasingly becoming a story about Sherlock, and not about Moriarty. I'd rather have more from Moriarty's point of view, please.

A great kickoff for a second season. It looks like an interesting case and a bigger challenge for Holmes, and I'm so excited to see how he handles it. Moriarty on the other hand, always being one step ahead, never fails to impress me.

The exchange between Irene and Miss Hudson was really nice, I loved that part of the episode. Looking forward to more of this amazing series.

Mycroft and Sebastian looking like doppelgangers got me tripping.
I sometimes forget to finish my sentences.

Kick off with the Irene Adler story. Couldn't be better. It is so nostalgic! I still don't know what to feel about this anime like is it a poor copy of the Sherlock series or is it a masterpiece in itself. I'm so confused. But anyway, I'm enjoying the series now and it feels like it is going to be even better!

Sherlyyy. Old bro Mycroft is doting towards his young bro haha. The clash between them was fun XD. Sherlock hasn't won a single time?! Unbelievable. Guess the brains is Sherlock while the brawn is Mycroft as per Holmes standards of course.

Aah, it is fun to know that Mrs Hudson and Irene have a great relationship. XD.

Man, Sherlock can be a gentleman at times considering how insensitive and brutally honest he is. 7 and a half pounds is it Watson? Let the man eat, he has to see a lot of running in the coming episodes haha.

Looking forward to the next episode. Being in the Moriarty team, I want to see him get more screen time XD.

All in all a great start to the new season!

Considering they are both protagonists, so...But it'll still be about Moriarty, so no worries.

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.

Big +1 to this, really liking the small spins on the interpretation of the characters in this show. It makes them more interesting and compelling because they are different from what you've come to expect.

New charcaters, Sherlock's brother and Irene Aler (I remember her name, I had Sherlock holmes novels in school, but cant clearly remember what her story was, is she the one who later marries Watson?)

Albert is part of the British Army that too the ones who control India! I dunno man, just hearing my country's name in an Anime no matter what context gets me excited
He slipped a letter in.

Also waifu wars Adler vs Hudson lol

That's so unlikely for Sherlock to not notice that it's a woman in disguise...but there are also chances that Sherlock has everything planned out differently and he actually did notice that it was Irene but will reveal it later to shock us as usual.

Damn that kira kira even when it's sewage water XD

The OP is so good. It's good to see more solo works from Kohta Yamamoto. It has strong Sawano Hiroyuki vibes.

This ED is actually quite better than the previous one. It starts clam later turns to EDM not like the previous one which started out “Boom!”

My favorite anime finally came back! Glad to see William, Sherlock, and many interesting characters again :D
Irene is a mysterious and elegant woman. I love her quotes and faith. She is very tough.
Regarding OP and ED, visuals became much better but I absolutely prefer season 1 songs. Don't get me wrong. New songs also very nice.

They changed almost everything about Mycroft and Irene from the books. Damn it. I really loved the way they were in there. Still, I won't judge the anime just yet. It's still interesting. I will trust this, and hope they do something really good.

The OP is awesome!!

I had forgotten how hot Albert was. lol.

Nope, Irene Adler is what you could say a lover/enemy/rival to Sherlock, they have a complicated relationship xD And the name you search for Sherlock's brother is Mycroft.

P.S Watson is best waifu ;)

Moriarty is back baby. The newest addition to the main cast Irene makes her debut. Can't figure out what her intentions are and whats she wants, guess we'll have to find out. She's as devilishly clever and capable as Holmes it seems. Moriarty wants to meet her, so we'll be seeing that next episode.

Moriarty took a bit of a back seat in the final episodes of last season, I wonder if he'll get back to the spotlight or at least share it with Holmes, or will he continue to work in the shadows?

Excited for more.

Ooooh, nice adaptation of A Scandal In Bohemia! It's awesome how they actually used the original story to expand the narrative in a way that would allow the Moriarty Brothers to be included and Irene to become a more permanent character. I like the added irony of Albert being a subordinate of Mycroft, giving him and his brothers a direct info source to Sherlock.

Speaking of Mycroft; was that not the best introduction of a character?! The scene was just a few minutes long and yet it so perfectly captured Mycroft as a person and the relationship between him and Sherlock. Irene's intro was nothing to sniff at either with the way she outwitted Sherlock completely!

This episode has left me questioning the quality of the writing for this season. From the moment Sherlock was first introduced, he was shown time and time again to be a very observant person and an extraordinary detective. For instance, his accuracy in guessing other people's professions just based on their looks and his immediate suspicions about a bigger power at play after the performance on the ship. It is then hard to justify why he did not see through Irene's disguise as the King of Bohemia especially when she has such a voluptuous figure. It is even harder to explain why Sherlock, after being told that Irene was a woman affiliated with the underground and had fooled many men before, proceeds to reason that Irene "did not seem like that kind of person" just because of how she presented herself to him and the one instance she saved a commoner. This just seemed so out of character for our supposedly "genius" detective... Hopefully the next episode will be better.

Finally started this. Love the OP. And Mycroft had the perfect entrance. The anime did a good job. But. It felts rushed. I actually read the Manga and the anime missed out on a few little things that would have made the events more cohesive. But stilll very very very enjoyable.

Thank you. I think we're just supposed let it slide I guess, uh duh..but there's no way it was that genius. She has a voluptuous figure and very round bosum, was she wearing a super tight corset? Even so, for a person who can decipher the profession of a random stranger and what they are thinking it seems a bit absurd to me that he couldn't figure out a person in disguise,let alone a woman dressed as a man. Hmmm. The show makes it look like we're dummies sometimes. Meh, I'll just forget it then.

That was a spectular first episode of the second season.

We start off with John and Holmes talking about their weight, after that the brother of Holmes comes in and tells John the same thing that Holmes told him (abt his weight). Mcrysoft (Microsoft XD) or whatever his name is, is a governement member.

Irene Alder, a famous woman in the underworld lays her hands on Holmes, the safest way to stay alive is by staying by the greatest Detective's side aka Sherlock Holmes. She's probably trying to attract Holmes, so that he'll feel some affection for her and protect her if something bad happens.

As Holmes' brother said ''Don't trust woman''. I guess that he probably knows what Alder is trying to do. AND DAMN! ALBERT, nice job at putting a fucking letter there without her noticing.

(pretty weird that Holmes didn't notice from the beginning that there was smth suspicious going on because in S1 he could geuss other people's job easily)

AMAZING OPENING AND ENDING SONG!

Thanks for dumbing down Sherlock and Watson (WHO IS A DOCTOR), I guess? When you can't tell that the person in front of you is an adult woman disguising herself as an adult man, you're a lost cause. I'm not even getting into the whole 'voice change' thing, because it's just overwhelmingly ridiculous - this is not a sci-fi anime and a woman will never sound like a man, no matter what voice training she does.

This show was so much better when it was just Moriarty and his team doing dirty deeds on shitty people.
