Great anime, awesome fights, and nice comedy. Enjoyed It so far.
Will Cid keep his powers in Japan? I'm very excited about what comes next.

WHAT?! He got transported back to his original world? (which is all weird now)

Nuuuoooooo Gonna miss the Shadow Garden girls.....also surprised Cid just jumps in and kicks butt no question asks.

Also surprised it looks like he still can use those "slime powers" (and I wonder if it affects the "slime powers" he gave everyone else now that he's "another dimension")

Kinda hoping he'll find his way back but Mordred made it sound like the phenomenon was super rare/random plus the ring (that caused the "artificial gate" in the first place) broke...

Holy shit Cid's back on earth, what happened to earth though? It merged with another realm? We got see Akane again and a re-enact of the scene from episode one again. What a way to end the season. I need the movie right now. Can't wait.

As expected Shadow obliterated the mech dragon thingy. Though wasn't expecting Beta and Epsilon to handle that knight guy, goes to show how strong they actually are. We even got more world building, that was really interesting. So like how planets orbits the sun the realms orbit something. Wonder what that is. Also we got one last I am atomic to end the season and the scale of it was bigger than ever, like he went to outer space to do it, holy.

Great season again, really enjoyed it and I'm hyped to see more. Specially after how it ended with Cid going back to earth. Wonder if Akane will learn the truth about Cid. Really looking forward to the movie.
@MegamiRem the ending was freaking awesome imagine to go back to your world before isekai. and with magic freakin awesome

Yeah the 2nd season was still entertaining but not as entertaining as the 1st season. I still think one day the story will eventually conclude with The entire story all being a figment of Cid's imagination. Cid maybe sitting in a mental institution watching some generic isekai Anime on TV while mumbling "I am atomic" over and over again. lol

Ok this show has just transcended simply beeing "good". I was spoiled that he gets back to earth in this ep, I was not expecting earth to have its own apocalypse to deal with!

"You are a rank even below delta" Highly unnecessary Delta burn!

And a movie has been announced? Lets go!

I just hope it comes ASAP because the usual delay between japan movie releases and us getting them is long enough already and might screw up a sequel season otherwise.

Really this show is just impressive, its just so consistently good, I dont think I have ever experienced this. There is no single boring or bad episode. Every single one of them is great!

and that leaves us with an overall great show!

The studio certainly did its job well elevating this utterly ridiculous story to greatness by having great animation, artwork and sound design on top!

We know things are bound to get super serious when they skip opening, and I mean how couldn’t that be, we literally had the epitome of “evil” Ragnarok, going full bonkers against Shadow from the very first second of this episode.

Liked how it didn’t even take the rest of the shadow garden making it to the scene, with Beta joining the fray too. Rose came into her senses too and was doing great… until she saw how just Epsilon and Beta alone managed to beat the life out of Mordred lol, to the point where he literally STARTED EXPLAINING THE ORIGINS OF BLACK ROSE AND EVERYTHING RELATED OUT OF HIS OWN FREE WILL lmaooooooooo.

Appreciate the much needed exposition from Mordred though, like how Black rose connects this world to the other world or how the demonic realms they call are responsible for the appearance of these monsters or how Rose was just a simple offering from the start. She’s a sad cause, but so is Mordred, I mean his Ragnarok was simply taken out, and when he tried to attack Shadow in a transformed form…

… man had no chance then too smh. “I’M ATOMIC” happened like ever, I mean Cid didn’t explicitly use “AM” this time but okay this was still epic. Though to be honest, whatever transpired thereafter was even MOREEEEE EPIC.

We got a callback to that very first episode with Nishino Akane again going through those same things(?) she did back then, but of course there’s a twist, it isn’t exactly what we saw back then, as that last minute disaster back in their own world, has transported Cid to the earth.

It's not Cid but SHADOW this time who'll save Akane. THEY PLAYED THE FIRST OPENING AS THE ENDING CREDITS, and that was a hype sendoff.

A season 3 is a matter of when and not if, if we’re being honest here. Just hope it comes within a couple of years lol.

a couple of years i want it noww 😭

Holy shit I can't wait to see more of this, maybe I'll read the light novels or something cause I have so much fun watching this in a way that I haven't in a long time. Fight scenes are cool as hell, MC is such an extreme of all personality traits, and the comedy is just so good. Love it.

I thought his ass was gonna pull a Kars on that Mordred dude by sending him to space for eternity lmao. Also, I wonder where they're gonna go with this. He's back to Japan now apparently??? Why does shit look so different now and what the hell happened in the real world?? Why are there lightsabers and shit now 😭 I'm excited to see what they have cooking for the movie!!

liked how Cid tries to explain how nuclear works but fails then concludes nobody cares about it, finally doing his signature move. then does the reverse isekai probably leaving another misunderstanding for his shawdow girls to smarten it out. liked the moon is red, the frenzy has started arc and the john smith arc but the blond princess arc kinda felt weak compared to the two. a decent show overall

I love this anime it will always be one of my favorites tbh I feel like they are using the movie as an middle ground to take their time with a season 3 but I will miss all of the seven shadows plus rose. but my favorite is probably alexia. sad we didn't see much of her in season 2

Wow, I did not see Shadow going back to Earth and again rescuing the girl from the 1st episode of season 1 coming. I'm assuming the movie will continue where this ended and that makes me want to watch it even more.

Anyway, I thought that this season was really good but I wish it had been a little longer as season 1 spoiled me with 20 episodes and this felt a bit rushed. Between the 2 seasons I liked season 1 more but this was still very good and I look forward to the movie and whatever else is made beyond that.

8/10

I enjoyed every second of this season. I couldn't help but be anxious for next week to arrive and now I discover that there is a film confirmed.

That cliffhanger at the end... EPIC. This is easily one of my favorite animes.

This was SO fking sick!! Got me too hype hahaha
Awesome as hell and funny as hell. Surprised me with the OG opening

Great season, very close to 10/10 for me but I'll give it a 9/10. Eminence in Shadow is in my top 20 all time though, no doubt.

But damn we going back to Earth?? Did not expect that. And it looks like it's a robotic dystopia nowadays. Awesome throwback to episode 1. That schoolgirl really looks like Clare too

And a movie just got announced!! The hype doesn't end :D

A Atomic blast for the finale of the season, how fitting lol. I wonder if there will be a moment where he'll have some sort of struggle lol.

Sheesh, Cid ended up traveling back to his old world and saving Nishino again. Looks like everything changed, and it's probably bc of the influence of other realms as mr. rounds man explained.

Next up is the movie, can't wait to see how it'll go. Gotta be hype for the series first movie lol.

Never ending plan to watch list...

Amazing, I want 3 more seasons.
I have read 2 perfect chapters of manga; They are Usogui Chapter 203 and Onani Master Kurosawa Chapter 23.
Slam Dunk Chapters 272 to 276 are a perfect stretch of manga.

So they decided to add some cliffhanger factor with the last scene before the teleport.
I can commend that.

Now time to wait for the japan movie and the inevitable S3 announcement at the end of it.

Dude, you wouldn't believe Cid's power unleashed in the finale! It wasn't some gory horror show, more like a sick breakdancing battle with deadly blades. Think Matrix vibes meeting a superhero movie, with Cid owning every second.

The wait was totally worth it. Seeing him finally cut loose was like finding the cheat code in your fave game. Everyone else was just watching in awe, jaws on the floor.

yeah y'll knew this gonna happen but it was completely worth it . [5/5 star ]
