Compared to the first season this is pretty bad. Even though I watched episode after episode hoping for something to happen all I ended up with was frustration.
Kiko in the first season stuck out enough and now there is the cross-dressing father and his idiot son plus strange characters appearing without barely an explanation. Sure DTB is a series where you have to think about the hows and whys but we are still pretty much left without a hint about contractors and dolls.
There is a story to it but it feels lacking provably to the way it evolves. There definitely are good parts in it
...
and plenty of them but there is also lots of stuff that could of had been done better. The "rifle materialization" scene with Suou is repetitive and feels like it's being used to waste time. Although Hei's ability is not what it used to be if feels like he is not even himself and somehow is very fortunate of the outcomes of his problems.
A least some characters have their own uniqueness to them and we learn a few things about them and their history.
It's not terrible by its self, but it is when you are expecting something along the lines of the first season.
Hopefully Darker than BLACK - Kuro no Keiyakusha Gaiden will somehow make up for it.
