Nate RFB posted:It's always been great, but season 2 has in the last handful episodes come into its own in a way that is almost frightening. It's going to be a real interesting at the end of the year to see whether I pick it or March comes in like a lion for my #1. I actually preferred season 1, because season 2 doesn't feel as narratively cohesive and enthralling as the first was in terms of the progression of history and the relationships of Young Yakumo and Sukeroku, but season 2 has more standout individual scenes that are just breathtaking in how well they're done. This is definitely going to be my #1 for sure though still.

I dislike Yotaro and think he's the worst part of the series, which is probably why I think this season isn't as good, but drat if some moments with the rest of the cast aren't just brilliant.

The_White_Crane posted:The reveal of what really happened when Sukeroku died was one of the most utterly unexpected scenes I've seen in an anime in years. And the fact that they didn't pound it over your head with a flashback to how it supposedly happened was also good. So well executed. Never thought Deen had it in them to make two consistently good seasons of a great show twice in the same season each year.

The VA for Sukeroku was especially great this episode. It saddens me that (at least according to MAL and Crunchyroll but I don't doubt it) that more people watched the Trinity Seven movie and Gabriel Dropout than Rakugo because this is actually good and those two just aren't. And this is ending next episode.

Explains a lot. Still, I can't believe that something this good has come to an end. It does feel as if they could have done a season for each period they timeskipped through and certain plot threads feel unfinished and under-explored (remember that snotty journalist guy?), but it was still bloody great.
