Finally, the second season becomes available on Netflix as of July 3rd, and honestly I just plowed through all 12 episodes like a junkie with a drug addiction.
Story/Character:
Picking up where the last season ended it seemed to focus more on Nagate's personal life and his personal Heram, which brings up something I consider to be a flaw. For me, to have the full female cast fall for Nagate pulls away from the series plot, which is a shame since we only get 12 episodes with the possibility of not getting another season. We get it, he's a bad ass. 7/10

Dear god, what the hell did I just watch? Part of me was sickened and part of me kept watching. Honestly, I ran into this one with little to no notice as to what I was getting myself into, and it's going to take awhile to get this series out of my head which is what I believe they wanted to do. Will not post any spoilers, but be forewarned from this point, this isn't for the timid or weak. Nudity and gore is one thing, but child abuse is another.

Finally found a copy and it didn't disappoint, but at the same time I felt cheated of another season. It was a good movie, but at the same time it felt more like a continuation of the series, as if we were treated to a few more episodes all thrown together. The storyline was good, but to me the pacing could have been spread out into another season allowing for buildup and development of the plot. I understood what was going on and it tied into the previous series almost entirely, but I had to watch it twice to make sure I didn't miss anything.
