Very excited to see a second season of Blue Exorcist. I have no read the manga, but have only watched both seasons 1 and 2 and here is my full review.
Apparently this season takes place after episode 17 in season 1, and everything after that was filler, filler that I quite enjoyed and wrapped up the season quite nicely, the anime follows the manga very closely besides that. Season 2 is a full manga adaptation.
Art 10/10 *Spoiler free*
The animation quality from the 2011 season 1 to the 2017
...
season 2 looks improved with detail, you can see blush on the character's noses that didn't exist in the first season, and you can see that in a few flashbacks, during the first couple of episodes.
Story 10/10 *Spoilers*
I enjoyed the story, and we learn more about Bon and his friends characters are more developed in this season from the first season. Also Rin Okumura learns to control his blue flames in this season. In season 1 he was still trying to master them, throughout the final episode of season 1. We learn that Mephisto is still plotting at the end and there is a hint if there is a Season 3 we could learn more about Takara who I am interested in, he hasn't done anything in both seasons, but recite a quote which raises more questions about him. Also Mephisto also recites a strange quote near the end of the fight of the impure king, notice a theme?
Sound 10/10 *Spoiler free*
It's the same from season 1, and it isn't bad. I enjoyed the rock track near the end of the season, that was also in season 1.
Character 10/10 *Spoilers*
I enjoyed the new villains, and how the villain was similar to Yukio even though Yukio denied it. We learn that Yukio does hate himself. The Impure King reminded me of a villain from Naruto. I enjoyed Mamushi Houjou's character design and her purpose she controlled snakes!
Enjoyment 10/10 *Spoiler free*
I enjoyed this.
Overall 10/10 *Spoilers-minor*
YES PLEASE WATCH THIS AND SEASON 1 TOO.
If you enjoyed the first season and wish to follow the character's stories even more I recommend this season, it has lots of action and development. I hope there is a season 3 soon so we can learn more about what Mephisto is planning and the rest of Blue Exorcist.
