I was a fan of the first season of Villainess, and the same can be said for this season. This isn't a casual trashy anime, but it's also nothing god tier.
This is a comfort anime, something with 0 stakes, cheesy nowhere romance, and minimal developments, something you can snuggle up in bed to watch and be assured of a good time with any external cares going out the window, but also not adding any stresses to your mind.

Overall this is a mediocre anime, it's a general isekai. The art is sweet and far from bland but is a bit rough around the edges, sometimes ... using pencil for non important items but this can add to the charm. All the characters are pretty useless and one dimensional, there's no development but you're sure to find someone you gravitate towards, and if that isn't the case then this probably isn't the show for you. The music is pretty fun but again, it's nothing you'll be humming to yourself.

As much as you may wish for pairings to happen, it probably isn't going to. My one wish for this series would be an OVA for each character's ending with Catarina :)

This is a romance that plays out exactly as you would think.

If you're after some casual watching then this is alright to fill the time despite it literally being about an adult grooming a child.

Overall next to 0 character development, unfortunate sloppy sound in some scenes where voice actors sound like they've been trapped in a box, and some shoddy art here and there mixed in with overall average characteristics.
I found myself rooting for the alternate romance route (which is clearly never going to happen) just for something to hold my interest a bit more. Any obstacle in the way is generally overcome within ... the episode and there's nothing to evoke emotion or thought.

There is still the final episode to go as of writing this but with how obvious the entire affair has played out, I won't be reaching for the source material any time soon.

Honestly only kept watching because the intro song was banging and very hype, so it got an extra mark just for that.
Took until maybe episode 6 to get into it, and even then it was fairly dry. A shame there wasn't a higher budget, the art was lack luster and especially with the clunky robot scenes. However, the Mecha design themselves were cool and fairly diverse. With such a large main cast the way characters presented their back stories became predictable in terms of who was going to be the "featured" character or pilot. This also meant some minor cast members were left underdeveloped. The ... ending itself was conclusive but unsatisfying.
I'd recommend going into this with patience. The emotional pay off is pretty worth while, but this isn't a mecha anime in the least.
