There's a lot happening, but it doesn't feel confusing. The gritty visuals and dark humor are good.

Un episodio que demuestre una mejora en la animación respecto a la temporada anterior, ahora viéndose mejor el cgi. Qué placer volver a ver este anime tan bizarro y gore.

After, almost 6 years of waiting for this anime. The pilot episode is just continued from the previous episode of the first season. It doesn't have a fresh start and that's what I liked! It just continued the linear story and the upcoming plot twist is still intact! The visuals are improved and the color is more vibrant! 😍

Episode one wastes no time pulling us into its strange and violent world. We meet Risu, who is searching for answers about his past. He finds some clues, but not the full truth, which keeps us curious and wanting more. I liked that the story didn’t drag things out, it got straight to the point and gave us the important pieces right away.

The fight scenes were tense and exciting, though the amount of blood and gore felt a bit over the top for me. I would have preferred more focus on the actual fighting and less on the splatter. Still, the chaos fits the dark style of the show.

One thing I wish we had seen is Noi’s weak spot. We learn that sorcerers have weak points that can stop them from using magic, but the episode doesn’t show us where hers is. That detail could have added more strategy to the fights and made them feel less about brute force and more about survival.

Even with all the violence, the episode introduces deeper themes like loss, love, and the search for identity. Beneath the chaos, the characters are driven by feelings and goals that make the story more meaningful.

Overall, episode one sets the tone perfectly: strange, intense, and emotional. It’s messy but gripping, and it leaves you eager to see what happens next.

The animation feels significantly slicker and more polished than season 1, but it completely preserves that grimy, hand drawn background aesthetic. The mansion sequence built up the eerie tension beautifully before bursting into signature dark humor and heavy hitting action.

chaos, gore, dark humor, and that filthy-yet-stylish world. The mystery deepens fast, the animation looks sharper, and MAPPA keeps the weird energy intact.

EPISODE CONTEXT

This episode picks up directly after Season 1's unresolved threads, functioning as a cold re-entry rather than a soft reintroduction, no recap, no hand-holding. Risu's pursuit of the Cross-Eyes and their hideout in Berith anchors the A-plot, while the dual episode structure begins establishing the expanded scope Season 2 will operate at. The mysteries seeded here, around the Cross-Eyes' leadership and character connections, are the engine that drives the majority of the season forward.
